We are a first come first serve all day restaurant. Walk-ins of all party sizes are encouraged at any time!Completely unplanned, our doors opened because two brothers went out on a limb. You see, Pete and Dave were artists who fell in love with a quiet street in the West Village called Carmine. They couldn't exactly call themselves business-savvy, but they didn't lack in the creative department. Through the years, they built a neighborhood staple that houses great eats, solid drinks, and an incredible community. We've since made homes in four different corners of NYC. Our West Village location is a hub for our first regulars, families, friends, and anyone else who simply likes good grub. We love what we do, and we can't wait to share it with you.

    We brought 6 of us for the tasting menu. It was our second visit and won’t be our last. All I can say is SO MUCH FOOD! By the time the main course came we were already full. Great variety, spice and exceptional quality. Wish there was more room - but that’s NYC. Tight quarters. Our waiter (Anthony) was a repeat from our last visit. It seems we always come on his birthday week. He’s terrific.

    A Greenwich Village landmark with delicious, varied and ample Tex Mex food and delicious, varied and ample libations. Service is friendly and efficient and I suspect that the restaurant's Cow Girl interior can't be found anywhere else except for cowgirl country.

    Loved ! Went for my 23rd birthday, arrived 30 minutes late to my reservations but was still able to get seated in about 40 minutes which is generous in my opinion considering how packed it was and how late i arrived. Food was AMAZING the mac & cheese was my favorite, ambiance is really nice, great music, awesome service and really good drinks. A bit pricey but nothing crazy i definitely look forward to going back
