Cascabel
This popular authentic Mexican upper East Side spot should be called Decibel instead as it is so loud in there. Few tables and a confusing set-up- do you order by waitress or not leads you to this small restaurant with food modeled after markets of Mexico. The food is quite good and sophisticated though the dining experience is not. Gorditas with Berkshire pork belly are tasty as well as queso fundido with homemade chorizo. The corn with lime and white cheese was of good quality and lots of agua frescas to wash it all down. You can eat pretty well for around $20-$25 though, with so much good authentic Mex. around, I would head to others unless you live on the UES. 2nd. Ave. off 80th. Street.
Slowgo!
