Noche Mexicana is a cozy and casual spot offering authentic Mexican food at very reasonable prices. The atmosphere is simple but welcoming, and the service is usually quick and friendly. The menu features classic favorites like tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and more — all with generous portions and flavorful ingredients. It’s a great option if you’re in the area and craving something satisfying and well-prepared without breaking the bank. A solid neighborhood choice for Mexican cuisine in Upper Manhattan.

It’s my go-to place for Mexican food. I love their chicken enchiladas with green sauce—it’s always excellent. I highly recommend it.

I’ve been going to this place for 20 years. The food is hands-down the best Mexican food I’ve had in the city. The waitress who’s usually there isn’t very friendly to be honest. Maybe it’s why this place only has four stars. But her service is plenty good. I love it here.

The Noche Mexicana special platter (22.86, tax included) was an abundant feast, enough to feed two. All the components (pollo Milanese, taco, chicken flauta, nachos, guacamole, rice and beans) were scrumptious. Eldi provided such friendly and attentive service.

A basic neighborhood restaurant. The food is wow. The best chicken soup and nacho in the whole Manhattan.

I am very picky with a margarita on the rocks. This place makes them perfect. Had a Picadillo burrito and husband had the steak burrito, both were delicious. Service was great as well.

I had the bistec Mexicana and it was so delicious that I ordered it again! There's enough food for at least 2 meals. The steak has a yummy sauce to it and grilled onions and peppers. The rice and beans were excellent. I really like the atmosphere and the kind lady that took care of me and my Colombian friend, who had soup and tacos that were delicious and said that the music playing reminded her of her mom. I love Noche Mexicana 2.
