   Outstanding Oaxacan food. The smell of fresh masa cooking is evident as you enter. Thoughtful mezcal cocktails were excellent.

   The food was delicious. Every dish was perfect with contrasting flavors and textures. I will be back to try the other dishes.

   So disappointed. We have been to Claro many times and this most recent time it was like a different restaurant. The only good dish out of the six we tried was the tuna tartare. The rest were almost inedible and my partner and I both agreed it was the worst let down of a dining experience we've had in NYC. And we spent $250 for two people....hopefully it was just a bad night for them. Not sure we'll be back

   The host was very accommodating when we had to change our reservation time by 30 min and increase our party size from 3 to 4. I thanked him, told it was my birthday, and I was so excited to eat here! We arrived and sat at the bar before getting seated. We were ignored by the bartender for a long time, despite her being right in front of us. She finally acknowledged us and made the best marg I’ve had in ages. Off menu Spicy marg w tequila ( I hate mezcal, and that’s all that was on the menu). Finally seated, and our server is really intense. She was short with dark hair and glasses. She forgot a round of drinks entirely and apologized, but it just seemed like she hated us the entire night. Impatient at best. I don’t care that it was my bday - it was such a weird experience. I will not be back. I don’t understand what all the hype is about. Everyone who works there is very strange and hates people. We went on a Thursday, so maybe don’t do that? So, so disappointing for a $350 dinner for 4.

   Food was truly excellent. I thought it was really fun that main courses were a different Mole.

   Amazing service and delicious food. We had the pork tacos and mole dip and tostada de atun and empanadas with sweet potato. All were amazing. Good pop music too. We sat at the bar and can see the kitchen, so it was fun. A wonderful experience.

   Delicious food; friendly, kind staff. The menu apparently changes regularly, so I'll need to go back again. It looks like it maybe has a garden when the weather is nice.

   The tostada de atun is so good I always consider ordering a second one each time I come to Claro. The mole negra is a must too!
