Came here on a Thursday for an impromptu date night and had no issue getting a table for two. A lot of the other places on wellwood usually have all kinds of events going on Thursdays, but we wanted something a bit more lowkey and Hermanas delivered the vibe we wanted. Quaint place, very homey and mellow feeling and music kept at the perfect volume. Staff was also super friendly and attentive, made the whole experience feel relaxed.
Starting with drinks we got a classic margarita and the fancy fashioned. Margarita was on the strong side, but that is no complaint coming from me! The fancy fashioned was a very refreshing and interesting take on a classic old fashioned, dare I say even a favorite?! I just might dare and I've had quite a selection of old fashioneds in my travels.
For food we decided just to split a few apps. We got the rice balls, the pupusas and an order of chips and guac. Guac was fresh and chips perfectly crunchy, plus they even refilled our chips when we got low free of charge, which was a nice and unexpected gesture. The pupusas were delicious and the sauce that it comes with is worth putting on everything (and I may or may not have done so). The real favorite though were the rice balls, who would have thought and Italian-Mexican fusion could blend together to perfectly! But it absolutely hit. My only gripe is that it is a bit pricey for the amount you get, but they at least make up for that with the great quality.
Being right on wellwood, parking can be a little tough but you can try and park along the street right in front. But I would recommend turning down one of the side streets and using the municipal lots nearby to prevent any headache.

Probably the nicest date night we’ve had in such a long time. We’ve heard such great things about this restaurant and so glad we finally decided to check it out. Most welcoming staff, cutest setup and extremely delicious food. It’s small and cozy so I do recommend a reservation but they kept us updated when seating would open and got us started with drinks and apps then found a spot for us at the bar. My mojito was perfectly made and I even ordered a second one which I never do. Their menu is super eclectic and had so many choices. We started off chips and salsa and elote. Best elote ever. Then had the scallops, shrimp tacos, cauliflower taco, and beef taco. So many more things we wanted to try but it will have to wait till next time. Can’t wait to go back!!

5 stars. Nothing less would be honest.
It always cracks me up when people leave 4-star reviews while writing 5-star comments. Just give them 5. Hermanas absolutely deserves it.
I live in North Carolina now, and I’ll admit it…just about everything up here in New York blows it out of the water. Maybe I’m biased. Maybe jaded. Either way, Hermanas stands out even among the best.
The service is exceptional. Quick, attentive, and clearly shaped by a strong management team. You can tell ownership is present and invested because that pride shows in every staff interaction. It’s rare and it’s remarkable.
The food and drinks? Great, of course. But it’s the overall experience that makes this place special. From start to finish, it just hits.
Highly recommend.

What’s not to like about this place? After 2 visits I have tried a variety of food items as well as cocktails and everything is amazing. The tacos are some of the best I’ve had on the island. Each one is unique in flavor. The cocktails are well crafted and strong. Service is also fantastic.

The staff is very friendly and very accommodating. We came here and they went out of their way to seat us. The barmaid is very knowledgeable and explained everything from the specials to what was on the menu. The food is impeccable and extremely tasty. They have something for every taste bud. I ordered stuff pepper . The pepper was spiced and cook to perfection. We also order the fried avocados which came out with so much busting flavor. We also had a spicy margarita which is very smooth and tasty. The atmosphere is very upbeat and hip! The bathroom is the most beautiful bathroom with the doggie wall paper. You can even post photo of your puppies on the wall. I highly recommend this location. We will be returning here often!
