Mcondo Los Tacos — Restaurant in New York

The food was great, but the payment situation was frustrating and disappointing. Their website says they accept Apple Pay (Traveled to get there with my daughter and was expecting to pay using Apple Pay as it says online) I was shocked when a sign near the window said CASH ONLY but I went in to truly confirm it. When I first sat down and spoke with the waitress she told me/confirmed they PREFFERED CASH but did in face ACCEPT Apple Pay (she even confirmed it twice). But when it came time to pay, another waitress said they only take cash…. Very sketchy. I told her the previous waitress confirmed that they accept Apple Pay but preferred cash . She said well it says cash only on the menu….. I didn’t receive an actual menu just scanned the QR code and it doesn’t state that. Then she Proceeds to tell me they take Venmo… and finally, they accepted my card. To be honest she could of been a bit nicer as well since it’s their error. Luckily, I found my debit card after searching my purse 😩 but the whole thing felt weird, uncomfortable, and that was a bit embarrassing. I went in with the intentions of using my Apple Pay for a nice dinner with my daughter. They really need to fix the info on their website and if it is truly cash only make it very known…… they do ACCEPT card but hide it!!!!

Thanks for the response, I Appriciate it. I didn’t see any indication “cash only” on the website, Instagram or on Google. Upon arriving it is persistent that it’s “cash only” I’ve seen costumers being turned away because they had card while I was there. Again the food was GOOD but the waitresses/servers should be transparent to costumers and tell them card are accepted besides Apple Pay...

I’ve passed this place hundreds of times and I always thought it was just a bar. Went out for dinner with a friend and she wanted a margarita. That’s how I found one of the best Mexican restaurants ever. This place has what’s considered the traditional Mexican dishes. I have a cheese nachos and it was like a pizza. Yummy. My friend who drinks says the three margaritas she had were delicious. Our host Jenny was knowledgeable about the menu and helped me choose a Mexican beer because I’ve never had any before now. I went and peeked at the kitchen and it was clean. I look at the legs of the counters and the edges and it was very clean. The bathroom has a red light for some reason but the light on my phone revealed a clean bathroom also. There’s ample seating inside for at least a party of four, and plenty of seating outside. My only beef with them is that they don’t offer coffee. They have to fix that considering they’re right across the street from a very good coffee roaster. They also just stopped me from ever buying churros from street vendors. Their churro were hot, slighted powdered with a nice cream inside, and came with chocolate and caramel dip. It was yummy. I was actually outdone and I’ll stop in regularly to get them. Incredible churros. I would have loved to have had some...

DO NOT GO HERE. Awful, apathetic service. Lazy, flavorless food. Let me start with the service. Our waitress was incredibly rude. It was apparent that she didn’t want to be there, and once we were seated, neither did we. She laughed at my friend when he asked if they had iced coffee. When we asked for more water, she filled one cup; we were a group of three. When I asked for salt (because the food was flavorless) she handed me salt in a dirty plastic cup.

Onto the food. It’s similarly disappointing. We ordered guacamole and the chips were stale and the onion chunks were massive. The fondito was essentially bean water and melted cheddar cheese. The cheese clumped together and created this awful texture. Our burrito bowls were unpleasant to eat. The rice was undercooked, the chicken was flavorless, and it was topped with soggy iceberg lettuce, which moistened the entire bowl.

I would not recommend this...
