TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups were the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection. As per usual, removed some of the extra things…

Cozy spot for this winter days. However, ai have passed by during summer days and they have their door and windows open. Nice atmosphere. Tasty and colorful food.

I’ve been coming here for years and it’s one of my favorite restaurants in NYC. 🙂 I recommend the queso derritido, caldo ix and jocon. Oh, and don’t forget the hot chocolate! Cocktails are great too 😄 If you’re lucky there will be live music.

Ix brings Guatemalan flavors to NY. The chef does a great job on the stew dishes that have great flavor. I had the pepian stew and the shrimp sliders. Both were delicious. The place is a little small. But you can often see artists perform here in weekend nights.
