\n\tThe team behind New York City<\/a>\u2018s over-the-top Italian restaurant<\/a> Bad Roman<\/a> is adding an opulent Mexican restaurant to its lineup.<\/p>\n

\n\tQuality Branded, the group that counts N.Y.C. hotspots such as Quality Italian, Don Angie<\/a>, and Zou Zou\u2019s under its umbrella, opened the splashy Limusina last week in Hudson Yards. The new locale, which fits right in with the brand\u2019s maximalist streak, is a massive three-level ode to America\u2019s southern neighbor\u2014though its cuisine isn\u2019t tied to one particular region, instead taking inspiration for their own take on the food, Eater reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd in the 5,000-square-foot restaurant, completed with bold chandeliers, vibrant red and brown hues, and striking marble slabs, you\u2019ll be able to chow down on a variety of tidbits. Of course, you can indulge in the classic fresh guacamole and queso options, as well as a spicy tuna tartare, dress big rock oysters, and aquachile options ranging from red snapper to yellowtail. For mains, expect lobster al pastor, served with achiote butter and pineapple pico de gallo, grilled branzino with salsa verde de las islas, and whole red snapper tacos. And if you\u2019re looking to stray away from seafood, there\u2019s a long-bone short rib quesabirria and pork shank carnitas to be found on the menu, too.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for spirits, look to beverage director Bryan Schneider\u2019s creations, which include several Margaritas<\/a> (including one with Mijenta<\/a> Blanco, blood orange, and serrano spicy tincture) as well as a Tajin Martini and a Neon Negroni. For those with a sweet tooth, look to desserts crafted by pastry director Lucy Blanche, such as mangonada cheesecake and a lemon icebox cake.<\/p>\n

\n\tQuality Branded hopped onto the scene in 2007; founders and father-son restauranters Alan and Michael Stillman started the brand as Fourth Wall Restaurants, which was then rebranded to today\u2019s name in 2017. Besides its other restaurants, the group has plenty more on the docket. Next year, a Beverly Hills sibling will join the fray, expanding Quality Branded\u2019s reach on the West Coast, according to Eater.<\/p>\n

\n\tFor now, though, Limusina is the new star. To snag a reservation at the Hudson Yards spot, head to the restaurant\u2019s website<\/a> now.<\/p>\n
