Best cocktail ever! – Loved It! I was there last Thursday and waited for my friend at the bar while having a cocktail made with... avocado???? (a little risky I must say... some sort of frozen avocado drink mixed with a hard core Latin liquor) Absolutely amazing!!! Turned out to be that my friend never showed up and so I decided to stay for dinner at the bar. I had three to-die-for tapas including one named pastelon something made with plantains and beef and manchego cheese... Wow! I wish my "friend" would've been there with... read more
Casual hipness with style comes to the Lower East Side – There are two kinds of restaurants on the LES. One of them is the ultra modern overpriced (com'on its the LES) eateries and the other the neglected dump. Macondo offers the perfect blend of hipness and style in a space that is cool and reasonably priced. Macondo's great savory tapaz are a great welcoming addition to the neighborhood. The reason my friends and I chose this place recently is because we are all on a budget, however we still wanted to eat good food in a gr... read more
Edible Shitshow – Don't let the fancy exterior fool you, the service at Macondo is one hairsbreadth away from that of your local McDonalds-- wait-- Duane Reade. Atrocious. We waited over an hour to be seated after being told by the inept hostesses the wait was 20 minutes. $9 cocktails that taste like watered-down popsicles, bland, lukewarm tacos, a spacey waitress who only materialized every 30 minutes... save yourself the headache.
Best latin cocktails in NYC - highly recommend! – I'm a huge fan of latin food & cocktails, but I have yet to find somewhere remotely authentic until now. Macondo's food & drinks are truly innovative & delicious! The service was great, and I loved the atmosphere - especially the chalk-board walls in the bathroom to write quotes on. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and my Tamarindo + Tequila cocktail. I HIGHLY recommend this place!
Comida extraordinaria; trato excelente; ambiente maravilloso; decoracion de ensue?o – He probado casi todos los platos y tengo que decir que la comida es dificilmente mejorable: me da la sensacion que estoy comiendo esas comidas, irrepetibles, que hacia mi abuela con mucho cari?o y sis preocuparle el tiempo. Me encuentro como en casa, rodeado con los amigos que quiero en un ambiente de ensue?o. Merece la pena frecuentarlo.
A Nobel Prize Winner It Is Not – Although based on the award winning Gabriel Garcia Marquez novel, Cien A?os de Solidad (One Hundred Years of Solitude), Macondo shares none of the attributes associated with the critically acclaimed work. A clever idea though, with nice decor and a cool Spanish street fare theme going on, but sadly the rest is very inconsistent. We went there expecting a wonderful spanish meal, but the result was a throughly tasteless, underseasoned, and well, bland, experience. First of all, for a "tapas" pl... read more
Courtesy of the Rayuela crew, this Latin-themed Lower East Side spot crafts tasty street eats and killer, fruit-centric cocktails. – The Lower East Side goes tropical at this bright and airy bar, decorated with faux ivy and fruits suspended in nets that dangle from the ceiling. While the open kitchen serves savory street eats including empanadas and arepas, the real stars of the show are mixologist Junior Merino's playful, fruit-based cocktails, like the potent, mint-tinted Guava and Whiskey and the knockout, meal-in-a-glass... read more
Sweet corn tamale that barely showed up... – The food was amazing, served hot and fresh. The style of the restaurant is very clever and well thought out. Seems they use a lot of really interesting things like refurbished airline seats and plywood molded into beautiful booths. It was slightly startling when my girlfriends main course came before even the appetizer...then all of sudden after she was done her main course everything came all at once and then we were rushed. I was still chewing my last bite, when the plates were ... read more
Great Place for casual drinks and food with friends!!! – Went to Macondo a couple times with friends and had a blast!!!! Loved the food & drinks. Drank wine out of the "Poron".
