About the Business

Specialties

Tacos & Tequila... Mexican Barbecue... killer margaritas... It all started with a passion for real, made-from-scratch cooking in a food truck that traversed Manhattan and Brooklyn, embracing the vibrant culture of the city. From concert fans to festival goers, day-trippers to lunch-breakers - we fed them all, body and soul. Today, MEXiCUE has evolved into a restaurant - and lively bar scene - that does things a little differently than the other guys. A little more boldly. And with a lot more flavor and fun. We smoke, grill, braise, char, pickle, juice, mash, grind and create - in a way that stays true to the Mexican tradition. All with a twist of the American South. We believe in authentic, down-home cooking techniques. Nothing fancy about it. Just good music. Strong, quality drinks. Shareable, mouth-watering food. That's all the ingredients you need for the perfect neighborhood escape. Created for making memories and kicking back. The ultimate place to unwind and dine - or have a full out party.

History

Established in 2015.

From humble food truck to brick-and-mortar, we're not your average MEXiCUEor Barbecue joint. We aim to fill both areas in your heart with a fusion menu created with love by the same guy who started the company with tacos and sliders to go!

Business owner information

Thomas K.

Business Owner

In 2010, Thomas decided to quit his corporate job and start a food truck called MEXiCUE, blending  Mexican cuisine with Southern American Barbecue. The truck drew lines that ran down multiple city blocks and was raved about by the press. MEXiCUE has now evolved into a full service restaurant and bar specializing in tacos and tequila.
