El Kallejon, East Harlem Reviews

  • Stan Rifken

A special treat, tucked away downstairs in a mid-block building. When you walk in, you’re transported to a magical Mexican place of fine food and drinks. This is not the standard “generic” Mexican menu but artistically created dishes that avoid the beans-rice-shredded lettuce cliches. It is worth the uptown journey to experience the restaurant.

You must stop in El Kallejon! This unique gem is a hidden treasure you do not want to miss out on. The hand crafted cocktails made from scratch are absolutely Devine. Aside from the inviting environment the food is authentic and absolutely delicious. Will be back, new favorite spot!
