Mama Mexico!

Custom-made fresh guacamole right at your table served in a lava rock bowl!

For Josh's birthday, his parents treated all of us to dinner at a Mexican restaurant that Josh and I love - Mama Mexico. Located right near our neighborhood, it is quite the surprising find. It's such a bright and festively decorated restaurant with the Mariachi band getting you in the mood for Mexican food! The huge menu is complete with the typical Mexican fare turned up a notch. A few more extra fresh seafood dishes on the menu than your regular Mexican restaurant and creative combinations of tropical flavors made it really difficult for me to choose my dish! We had a fantastic time! The combination of good food and atmosphere will definitely get us to come back to this little jewel of a restaurant. And the local peeps told us there wasn't very good Mexican food in NYC!
