México Auténtico - Brooklyn

The food here is seriously good. it’s an underrated spot with a casual and rustic kind of decor but the food is the star. do yourself a favour and get the arugula salad with oaxacan cheese and the chile relleno or enchiladas. so good paired with a margarita and a price point that doesn’t stingFood: 5/5

Went to dinner at Mexico Authentico on Friday night. A high-quality Mexican spot with lots of unique margarita flavors and good food options.Quality: Solid Mexican food and delicious drinks. I had two types of margaritas, the Spicy Mango Margarita and the Habanero Cucumber Margarita. Both were tasty, but the flavor pairing in the Habanero Cucumber Margarita was unique and delicious. For food the Steak Nachos are very good, appreciate how they were layered to ensure each bite comes with lots of flavor. The Carnitas Burrito was fine, the weakest of our food items as it was a bit bland. The Camarones Tacos were excellent, loved the mango salsa to add some freshness.Quantity: Large portions of everything and strong drinks.Value: $12-$15 for Cocteles. $17 for Steak Nachos. $14 for the Carnitas Burrito. $12 for Camarones Tacos.Ambiance: Mexico Authentico is a Mexican restaurant located in Park Slope. They have a small outdoor patio, which is always decorated, and a small indoor dining area. Tables line the left wall, and a small bar can be found on the right. The walls are covered with different flashy decorations and Spanish music played loudly in the background. One large television hung towards the back, but was not on during our visit.Crowd: Very busy for Friday night dinner. Felt like the rain kept a lot of people local and looking for a place to enjoy a drink.Service: Friendly and adaptable staff.Parking: Limited parking in residential area.

They have a full vegan menu! The vegan chorizo quesadilla was delicious. Had a lovely margarita. Bonus all the staff were super nice!

So good! And great price for the neighborhood. We got the lamb barbacoa and the steak fajitas. I also got the classic margarita. Everything was delicious and unlike some other pricey Mexican restaurants in the neighborhood, we left full and satisfied! The outdoor area to eat is also really nice with pretty string lights. We will definitely be back!

Delicious food, colorful decor, and fun vibe! The nachos and enchiladas are always amazing. Also highly recommend the pineapple and mint lemonade.
