★★★★★ 5.0 Rockie Jay · Oct 2025

Best authentic Mexican food I have ever had in my life. I love coming here. The food is amazing, the staff are friendly and efficient. I also love the ambiance of this place. I highly recommend basically everything on their menu. My favorites are the grilled squid, camarones on the skillet, the skirt steak on the skillet, and the chilaquiles, but everything else is amazing! Packed with flavor and smells great! You will not regret it.

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was incredibly tasty and perfectly portioned. The steak and filet mignon tacos were outstanding — full of flavor and cooked to perfection. The rice and beans were unbelievably good, probably some of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food!

I’ve been coming here for years. Since the beginning I can say, the food is delicious and authentic, the drinks are strong and the staff is as friendly as you will ever meet. I highly recommend. Some favorites we get are the guac, the squid appetizer (incredibly flavorful) the fajitas, the chilaquiles and the chorizo.

Hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant in Queens, I’ve been going here for years, celebrated birthdays and numerous life special events here. My favorite dish is the quesadilla de cecina, the tortillas taste so fresh/great distribution of cheese and meat. Honorable mentions are the tostadas and sopecitos. The drinks are phenomenal, especially their selection of flavors for frozen margaritas. Service is immaculate - I called ahead last night (Valentine’s Day) to see if they could accommodate my partner and I last minute, and they saved me a table.
