What dinner here really costs, added up

A margarita is $18, so we won't call this a cheap night out. But two people can eat on a rooftop for less than you'd think, as long as you come on the right night and watch the drinks. These four tabs come straight from tonight's menu prices.

All of this is before tax and tip. New York City sales tax is 8.875% (state rate table, checked November 2026). If you're budgeting to the dollar, ask us how the check works when you book.

Where the money goes

Usually it's the drinks. A round of margaritas costs about as much as a round of tacos, and the showpieces like the Vozul Skull Margarita ($39) and the Piña Loca ($39) will move your total more than anything else you order.

On a Tuesday, the taco price is fixed at $25 a person for 90 minutes. That's the one night when a big appetite saves you money. Whether drinks are included, or which tacos are on the list, is something to ask when you book.

Ways to spend less

  1. A Mexican beer$8Against a margarita at $18, this is where a round gets cheaper.
  2. Agua Fresca de Piña$8If you're not drinking, fresh pineapple water feels like more than a soda.
  3. Costillitas de Elote$13Fried corn with cotija and lime aioli, and an easy starter to share.
  4. Viva Guacamole$16It comes with totopos, so you've got a starter for two.
  5. A taco order$19Three tacos to an order. Our lowest-priced ones start here.
