I can't say enough good things about this local gem of a restaurant! Despite its small size, it has an incredible vibe that keeps me coming back. Zyak, who always takes excellent care of us, truly makes each visit special. His bright personality shines through his service.
On a lighter note, the bathroom here looks like it came straight out of a magazine--so well-decorated and impeccably maintained that you'll want to take pictures. The food and drinks are consistently on point, delivering delicious flavors every time.
I also have to commend Felix for creating such a wonderful atmosphere. This place is a whole vibe, and it's always a delightful experience to dine here. Highly recommended!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Eric W.Manhattan, NY32291Jul 8, 2024
The cooking and service were ok. The chicken in the El Pollo de mi Abuela was fairly dry, and the yucca had a lot more dairy than I was expecting, but the flavors overall were good. One thing I didn't like is that they served a whole half chicken and you had to break it down yourself. It makes eating a lot messier.
We also got the choripán and pulpo. The choripán is a little pricey for what you get but bread was buttery and the chorizo had good flavor. Pulpo is done better at other places I've been but it certainly is solid.
There were flies buzzing around us since the doors were open. It doesn't seem like they have air conditioning here, so keep that in mind.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 3, 2024
I'm super disappointed in myself for just leaving a review for this uptown treasure because I've eaten here so many times, and it has always been good. I literally waited outside once for an hour for it to open for Brunch. That's how good. However, I must leave a review because this place keeps coming through for me.
I've recently decided to act like my stomach is 44 years in the game, and give up bodega bags of trash snacks for good. My tummy and my head can't take it. #junkfoodhangover As a result I have no easy sweets in my house. New rule, either I make it or I have to eat it outside the house.
Now I called this a post dinner walk when I started the evening because who couldn't use one of those, but if I'm being honest, I really needed something sweet. Fast forward, walking through my neighborhood, stopping by ole faithful Baskin Robbin, and they didn't have Daiquiri Ice #IYKYK which is honestly the only Baskin flavor for summer.
So I'm headed home and I happen upon Fiti, which always calls to me because it's a vibe from the sidewalk. Good music coming out the door (Take on Me currently being sung by an attractive set of humans at and behind the bar), intimate. I walk by because I already ate dinner but remember their vegan chocolate ganache which is heavenly. I turn back to see if it's still on the menu. It is. And it's BETTER than before (where they do that at). They've added black salt atop the whip cream above the ganache, and you are talking about one delicious cup of chocolatey sweetness. $8 for this decadent treat.
I love it here. If you're up near Dyckman, go here to eat. You will not be disappointed! Now back to
my dessert.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jan 31, 2024
I have been here a few times and I have to say. I feel invited to be part of the vibes that resonate in this space. I really appreciate the honey, chill, and artistic vibes of the space.
Service is excellent, they are attentive, explain the menu if you have any questions, remind you of happy hour and are very friendly.
I see that live music is a thing and I am happy there is a place where you can get that enrichment.
Food, yall, bomb as fuck. They have gluten free and vegetarian options. I was doubtful of my quinoa bowl and I have to say that shit was bomb. They have a great menu which isn't long and food comes out quickly. Cocktails are delicious and they even had mocktails and 0% alcohol beer.
I think this is a place I can come too regularly. Thank you for the good energy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Mar 5, 2023
I only came for a drink, so I can't say anything about their food. The place is tiny, and if you're sitting by the bar, it's tight. Get a table, if you can.
I was unlucky to pic the bar stool by the live performer, who was so loud I couldn't hear anything my friend was saying an inch away from my ear. It wasn't pleasant. The place is small, so there's no need to blast music so high they can hear it from the Cloisters.
Prices are a tad high.Helpful 10Thanks 1Love this 6Oh no 2 - Feb 6, 2024
Came for a couple of drinks, late on a Sunday night. It's a pretty small space, but very cozy and has a great ambiance. Everyone working there was very friendly and attentive. I have a few of the house aperol spritzes and they were phenomenal. Had a great time, would stop by again.

A tiny dimly lit chilled clandestine atmosphere. We loved it.
We ate Burrata and the plant based empanadas. Both were delicious and enough to finish off the progressive dining evening. Stop number 3.
The Martini del sur was fantastic, so good I had two, chamomile infused vodka with a smidge of sherry and a few other ingredients that turned it into magic. Pablo enjoyed the Ruta del Sol, a gin based drink but the Guanabana shrub was a little overpowering in smell and taste.
Service was perfect and enthusiastic.

This place is a gem. The food is delicious and they have a great happy hour. The music is very chill and the lighting is perfect to end a long day . The waiter was very knowledgeable and recommendation was excellent.

We stopped to sit down for a cocktail when we heard Depeche Mode wafting over the outdoor seating at Fito. Of our two cocktails, one was quite good (if a smidge overpowered by the chinotto) and the other, the highly original Canelazo, absolutely transported me. Our waitress was attentive (she didn't avoid us despite the chill outdoors). We didn't have food this time, but I did notice that there are a few vegetarian options. I hope they keep the outdoor seating open and find a way to warm it a little.

I truly enjoy this place, from the decor to the staff , drinks and food. They have a great wine selection that comes with knowledge and the cocktails are unique in taste ( in a good way). The food so far has been excellent in taste and texture (nothing overly cooked or seasoned). It is a small place but the service is excellent and the owner is very attentive and courteous.
