What Guests Are Saying

“It is difficult to put the experience into words as Cocina Consuelo is about a « oneness » experience. You’ll be your own judge but to stay with the food experience it is unique. Karina, the chef, executes traditional Mexican recipes with amazing maestria. I have become a regular and my last dish was a stuffed pepper so delicately fried cover by a sauce based on peeled walnuts and light cheese; so smooth and white colored by grains of pomegranate. Sorry, very bad description for a very unique dish. Her Tacos are all the same unique. Lalo, Karina’s husband, a very charismatic musician participâtes to the very special atmosphere both create. I just can wait for my next visit!” - François Colcanap

What an interesting, delicious, unique experience. I was the outlier of eight guests, the other seven having all come together as a group. Great conversation, fabulous food, wonderful pacing. Karina and her husband, Lalo, were so casual it felt like I'd known them previously. This is Mexican food that you haven't really had before - so creative. Highly recommend.”- JoAnn

A highlight of my trip in NYC! Karina and Lalo are such warm and welcoming hosts (and felt like friends by the end of the evening). Karina's multi-course Mexican menu is outstanding - the birria bone marrow tacos were amazing. The menu changes seasonally so I'll definitely be back when I visit NYC again! Thank you for a wonderful evening!”- Kristina

“Amazing experience, the food was top-notch and the hosts were so welcoming. You could tell that the chef has experience at a Michelin star restaurant - the food was creative and plated beautifully. We left feeling like the hosts were our friends!- Stephanie
