I have been a patron of this restaurant for many years and I am still sad about the closure of its Manhattan location. The fact that I now have to travel to Queens for a taste of their cuisine speaks volumes about my dedication. The food never fails to impress, and what I particularly appreciate is the consistency in flavor. While I must admit that the Ceviche mixto and the bacalaitos have been underwhelming, the mojitos, in any flavor, are consistently top-notch. However, the true star of the menu, in my opinion, is the skirt steak with coconut rice and black beans—it is quite simply the love of my life!
Been here a few times and always enjoy my food. They had a special which was the red snapper filet in criolla sauce which is onions, peppers, capers and olives in a tomato sauce. The sauce and fish were really good. You could tell that the fish was very fresh. It was light, flaky and had a buttery taste to it. I did come away a few scales but it didn’t take away from the overall taste of the meal, just an annoyance. I originally had the arroz con gandules but rice was a bit overcooked so I opted for just white rice and black beans. Beans can definitely use a bit more flavor though. Had a raspberry mojito that was mixed perfectly and was very refreshing. Definitely recommend. Service was great and he was very attentive and helpful with suggestions. Parking: There’s street parking that is metered until 7PM and then free. Or there’s a parking garage by Target that’s about $10 or so dollars. Wheelchair accessibility: While there’s a ramp to enter/exit restaurant, just know that it is a tight fit indoors.
Went for dinner, the waitress didn’t answer our questions and rushed us for the food to take mad long, i liked my dish but my friend unfortunately couldnt finish hers. Dessert was really good.
Great location great service Nancy is amazing and extremely acknowledgeable about the Specials of the day. Fast affordable, clean. Dietary restrictions: Not so much dietary but allergy she was great
Food was great, staff attentive!
Really good food! I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I love that part of Forest hills. Best strawberry daiquiri I ever had! And that's saying a lot.
We came to celebrate our friends birthday. Spent $600, but the service was terrible, the waitress dropped our food and on top of that was very rude about it. When we got the bill she commented saying that we couldn’t afford the bill. It was very unnecessary
