about

In 2000, Irma Marin took over her brother-in-law’s restaurant that had been operating in NYC since 1990. She ran the beloved spot on 1st avenue until 2015, when she was forced to close due to a rent hike. The community gathered support for Puebla to find a new home at Essex Market, where Irma and her family frequently shopped. 

Now Irma runs her stall selling authentic Mexican food native to her hometown of Puebla with son Jose and daughter Mary Beth, who both grew up on the Lower East Side. Their options are endless, but we suggest trying any dish with Irma’s homemade mole poblano!
