Every once in a while you walk into a restaurant and immediately know you’re going to like it. One step into La Contenta and we knew it was on. The Feel Good Factor seeped into our veins. Sign me up, pour me a drink, and feed me guacamole and chips all night long, bartender. This Lower East Side spot is small in stature ,they have 14 seats ,but huge on personality. It’s a Mexican restaurant with excellent cocktails and a chef with serious skills.
