Lupes serves delicious authentic Mexican in a charming tin-roof storefront on the edge of Soho. The service is friendly and the ambience very casual.

Went there today with my cousin. We both hail from southern california. I don't know what part of East LA they learning their mexican style of cooking, but it is not close. It's ok, and is definitely not TEX MEX, but if you are reading the rest of these reviews and thinking you are about to get the real deal... Uh No. I had the Chicken Enchaldas, my cousin had the chicken norteno. The Beans were good (black), and the rice was good (nice flavor), but the sauce for the enchaladas... bland. little more flavor needed. I would go back, but It's not the best in the NYC. I have been to some here in the NYC better... The chips and salsa, NOT GOOD. They did not have corn chips, but the flour chips from the bag. Salsa could be better.

I love Lupe's! It is my go to place for great Mexican food in a relaxed environment. I've been there dozens of times, and each time I'm completely satisfied with the experience. The food is great--simple, healthy Mexican food. There are lots of vegetarian options. I love the super vegetarian burrito, the sliced avocado salad, and the camarones (shrimp) chipotle. They also have great chili, tacos, enchiladas, and tamales. They also make great cafe con leche. The prices are extremely reasonable, and the wait staff is always super friendly. I hope you enjoy Lupe's as much as I do!
