According to The New York Times, Kuxé "features a snapshot of home cooking from about 10 cooks, many from the Puebla, Mexico, area," meaning you'll get an incredible, authentic taste of this beloved cuisine, but with an upscale twist, which gets equal applause from Time Out.
Grab your $59 pulse (a $106 value) for a 3 Course Dinner For Two that includes 2 Dinner Plates, 1 Family-Style Plate, 1 Dessert, and 2 Cocktails, Wines, or Beers, or 1 Tequila Tasting, or 1 Mezcal Tasting.
New York Magazine & The New Yorker-praised Chef & Owner Julian Medina has been crafting award-winning, exquisite, high-impact dishes that have earned him the approval of New Yorkers, especially in his other hotspots Toloache, Coppelia, Tacuba, La Chula Taqueria, and El Fish Shack. For nearly 2 decades, his culinary prowess is impressive, even earning him a spot on "Iron Chef!"
Start with a few Frozen Tamarind Margaritas and Tostaditas De Langosta (homemade crispy tostaditas, warm lobster, spicy dynamite salsa, cashew salsa macha, avocado), followed by the famous Mocajete Volcan - a behemoth overflowing with steak, chorizo, shrimp, chicken, queso fresco, nopales, and Texas onions, stewed in a traditional molcajete with roasted chile de árbol salsa.
Finally, a dessert of Tres Leches De Limón (lemon cake soaked in three milks, merengue, berries salsa) seals the deal on a caliente night...
In a vibrant, cozy spot in Greenwich Village, Kuxé will take you on a palatable excursion through gourmet Mexican cuisine that will have you in epicurean paradise with every bite. To add to the allure, this New York Times-approved gem also shakes things up with craft cocktails, a curated wine & beer list, and a fabulous array of tequilas & mezcals sure to elevate your feast.
Also featured in Food + Wine and The Infatuation, Kuxé is helmed by Chef & Restauranteur Julian Medina. His dishes are superb, incorporating seasonal & natural ingredients that celebrate the roots, traditions, & childhood upbringings of those who work in the restaurant, resulting in “Cocina de Pueblo” (or “Hometown Cooking”) cuisine.
The staff inspire the menu standouts that you'll devour, but not before you take advantage of the drinks lineup. Go for craft cocktails like the La Dasy with Señor Sotol, Aperol, prickly pear, lime, and agave. Alternatively, the wines & beers are divine, not to mention the tequila & mezcal tastings for an extra kick.
We love a taco starter, especially the signature Tacos De Birria filled with braised brisket in red chiles, melted Chihuahua cheese, onion, cilantro & salsa verde, while the Gorditas De Chicharron shine - think crispy pork belly sliders with a coffee glaze & chipotle cabbage slaw.
Abundant, family-style mains shine, repping delectable flavors your taste buds will adore. Favorites include the Carne Nortenña (grilled skirt steak marinated in adobo, mole cheese enchilada, new potatoes a la diabla) and the Branzino Tixin Xic repping a Yucatan-style whole boneless grilled branzino with tomato-avocado salad, achiote-sour orange & habanero salsa, corn tortillas, and salsa macha.
As the feast comes to a close, finish on a sweet note with Crispy churros dusted in cinnamon & sugar and sided by cajeta & chocolate dipping sauces. Divine in every way...
All selections are made from the restaurant's full dinner menu.
