Chelsea’s dining scene just got a fiery new addition. Dos Tres, a modern Mexican eatery from restaurateur Marco Britti, is serving up bold flavors, handcrafted cocktails, and top-tier tequila in a stylish, inviting space on 23rd Street.

The menu, helmed by Executive Chef Henry Zamora—whose résumé includes The Bazaar by José Andrés and French Laundry—celebrates Mexico’s culinary richness. Expect fresh guacamole, crispy flautas, and tacos stuffed with birria, carnitas, or smoky grilled shrimp. Entrées like Enchiladas Verdes and Mexican Paella take things up a notch, while the Chiles en Nogada, a stuffed poblano pepper, and the Steak and Eggs with salsa roja and charred onion offers a taste of tradition. Desserts like Tres Leches and flan seal the deal.

Signature cocktails, curated by Joy & Libation & Co., range from a hibiscus-infused mezcal sipper with lime and orange to drinks that bring on the heat. The El Diablito is a spicy concoction of habanero-infused tequila, ginger liquor, and pineapple, while the Mora Picante pairs jalapeño-infused tequila with grapefruit, ginger, and blackberry. Tequila flights and Cheladas add even more reason to raise a glass.

Britti, who made his mark with Calle Dao and Mareluna, took inspiration from his time touring with Marc Anthony and J.Lo, where he saw firsthand how food and music bring people together. Now, he’s bringing that energy to Dos Tres. With 80 seats and weekend brunch on the way, this spot is set to become Chelsea’s new go-to for an elevated Mexican experience.

Dos Tres is located at 461 W 23rd St with an official opening set for March 19, 2025.
