Blockheads opens tomorrow on 3rd Avenue



The San Francisco-style Mexican restaurant opens tomorrow at 5 p.m. in the East Village.

The big burrito specialists, from the folks who launched Bennie's, is at 60 Third Ave. between East 10th Street and East 11th Street.

Per their Facebook page, frozen margaritas at this location will be $3 for the rest of July.

This will be the seventh Blockheads in Manhattan … not to mention the Benny's in the West Village.

  1. STOP salting the wounds please. I really miss UFC (great beer menu). And the bar tenders were cool. So many bars in EV but so few places that have really grt selection and not overly loud or filled with dreck customers. Sigh.

  5. I love Blockheads. Same owner(s) as Benny's that went out on Avenue A. So haters: shut up. A burrito at Benny's was nearly #13 when it closed. Rents are high.

  6. I still think it's an absurd name for a restaurant.

  7. 5:20AM,

    Good Beer (9th street) and Top Hops (LES). Great beer and interesting people that really know their great beer. Prices aren't horrible as well.


    9:53AM,

    $13 for a burrito? Sounds like San Francisco-style to me.
