Trendy, but food is not good – I've been to Macondo twice for dinner- the first time was so unmemorable that when a friend made a reservation only a year later I didn't remember that I had been there until I arrived. The second time the food was just OK. Most of the reviews talk about the drinks and fusion of ingredients but they don't actually talk about the taste of the food - which is not good! There were 4 of us so we tried a lot of different dishes - the pescado tacos, enchilada de pollo, and the tuna flatbreads and I w... read more

Awesome Brunch!! – Macondo....Get. Over. There! They have this brunch special that you buy one mimosa and you get a few more complimentary mimosas with your brunch! That's unheard of in this city.

Amazing Tapas – Ate here last night. Food and cocktails were outstanding. Interesting ingredients mixed...tough to find around the city. Nice vibe also.

At least the cooks are Latino – I could eat the Chorishrimp every day for a while. The bocadilla and arepa were whateves. It is funny to see gringos pedal fancy latin street food in a posh LES setting. A great marketing appeal none the less. I will go back for those camarones con patacones and try a few different sides next time and a new drink too. Go make your own decision...
