" I was impressed with the service here. I arrived as they were opening and I was immediately greeted warmly by the host. My waiter was prompt and gave me an excellent recommendation for an agua fresca.
The place is lively with upbeat music but not overbearingly loud.
The tacos were delicious!
I had a couple of pleasant conversations with Daniel, who I believe is an owner of the restaurant. Overall a great experience. I will be back here whenever I'm in Manhattan again. "

" This place was delicious! My husband and I saw this place after going up the Empire State Bldg. We decided to go in for dinner as we were really hungry. The place looked nice, but we weren’t expecting the food to be as good. To our surprise, the food was delicious; it really tasted like real Mexican food!
My husband and I are from Mexico City but have lived in Texas for three years. We haven’t found a place as good as Tacombi, not even in Texas.
We just suggested they added desserts to their menu. We’re sure they’ll be as good as rest of their food.
I highly suggest you pay them a visit; you’ll leave satisfied and ready to visit again soon. "

" Title: "An Unforgettable Experience of Authentic Mexican Delight!"
Review:
My culinary journey at Tacombi Empire State Building was nothing short of spectacular. As I stepped through the door, I was warmly welcomed into an ambiance that whisked me to a charming Mexican street scene. The friendly staff and the festively cheerful atmosphere provided an unforgettable backdrop to a delicious meal.
From the moment I tucked into the Guacamole Y Sals Cruyda, I knew I was in for a unique experience. The appetizer was a symphony of flavors, perfectly setting the tone for the main courses about to arrive. The Carne Asada and the Baja Crispy Fish Tacos were the stars of the evening. The former was brimming with Sonoran-style Holstein beef exquisitely topped with cilantro, onion, and an avocado-tomatillo salsa. The latter presented a crispy, wild-caught Alaskan Cod that was expertly complemented with a homemade roasted poblano mayonnaise. Each bite was an exploration of authentic Mexican cuisine, served in a modern setting yet deeply rooted in tradition.
One cannot overlook the drinks at Tacombi. I tried both the pineapple and watermelon drinks, both of which were refreshing, but the pineapple one stole the show. It was expertly chilled and offered the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors, which was the ideal accompaniment to the rich flavors of my meal.
Despite being in the bustling heart of Midtown Manhattan, the restaurant was a haven for those seeking an intimate dinner. The candlelight and dim, relaxed setting added an extra layer of tranquillity to the evening.
Despite hearing that the restaurant can get crowded, my experience was smooth and enjoyable. I also found the portion sizes to be more than satisfactory, with the quality and authenticity of the dishes justifying the price.
Overall, Tacombi Empire State Building provided me with an exceptional dinner, and it has my highest recommendation. Whether you're a New Yorker or a visitor, looking for a spot to enjoy a casual meal with friends or family or searching for authentic Mexican flavors, this place should be on your must-visit list. I look forward to returning for more delightful culinary adventures! "

" This Mexican place was amazing. Everything we had was EXCELLENT. all the drinks, the corn in a cup, the tostada, the tacos. Get it all and enjoy. Very cool environment, decor. Super friendly staff. Very nice bar, open kitchen. I love the layout and the tile work. Strongly recommend the Corn Esquites. "
