It's on 1 of my list. Each entry below is what I wrote about it there, with my verdict on that list, the fullest first.

Somewhere between an upscale and casual neighborhood restaurant, Toloache is an easy spot to fit into any itinerary. My favorite item on the menu is one of the best pineapple mezcal margaritas in NYC. The pineapple makes it sweet and fruity, and the mezcal adds a satisfying, smokey texture.
But the options don’t stop there, there are fruity flavors and house-cocktails. Take the namesake Toloache which is made with hibiscus, blueberries and lime that showcases the ingenuity of the restaurant. Besides some of the best margaritas in NYC Toloache also makes elevated Mexican cuisine.
