Stylish clientele sip tall, potent margaritas at the elegant bar surrounded by strolling mariachis, while the happy "Mexican Mood" dining room is full of chick international crowds. This makes Mama Mexico one of New York's most "in places".

This upscale fiesta of a restaurant/bar designed by world reknowned architect, Mohindra Kawlra, exudes a colorful and romantic ambiance enhanced by exotic custom designed etched glass murals depicting the culture and intellectual achievements of the ancient Mayan and Aztec kingdoms.

The success of this restaurant is due to the collaboration of six brothers. The brothers grew up in a tiny village in Mexico. Mama taught them authentic home cuisine, while Papa encouraged
them to be together in business in America. When the boys came to New York, they worked in various upscale restaurants until they saved enough money to open an Upper West Side eatery of
their own. It quickly became one of the most festive restaurants in the neighborhood.

When this new mid-town "hot spot" opened 3 years ago it became an instant success. It is one of the few restaurants to receive the Five-Star Diamond Award by the prestigious American Academy of
Hospitality Sciences.

The New York Times says, "Friendly and likable...spicing is tame but drinks are potent". The Zagat Survey says, "Great guacamole, it is party central with these spirited Mexicans. The Mexican fare created by the multi-creative chef/brothers produces haute cuisine of various regions of Mexico.

Try fresh quacamole prepared at your table before sampling the many delicacies from the sea, the steak with mushroom cream tequila suce, the famous sizzling fajitas and other dishes incorporating the freshest ingredients available. Let your gracious host, Juan Campos, recommend a selection of aged, rare tequilas to complete your evening.
