I felt like i was robbed , i was charged 35$ for a soup and a small meal in a paper plate . Fist and last time I'll go there . Ridiculous prizes . read more

Insane prices . $30 a plate. Absolutely ridiculous i have been coming here for over 10 years with my family before the owner switch over ... the food is okay. Not a fan of the yellow rice or any of the rice to be honest but the prices is what stopped us from coming entirely read more

Soy de Colombia no había visto tanta limpieza , atención y una rica comida . los felicito todo 5 estrellas

I love how clean this place is and how nice the staff is. The food is always great and me and my family love going here

Need to bid JV Tequila adieu and I took my review down from 4 stars to 3 because I do believe the food is good and I'm hoping this was a one-off problem. Went in 2 days ago for a chicken burrito, they're so big they last me 3 days. I just cut off a small section to eat for dinner and chomped down on a pebble the size of a pencil eraser, thought I cracked a molar but seems to be ok. Still hurts like heck but it's still there. I'll have it checked out anyway, but how does a pebble that size get into a burrito? Did they drop the burrito on the floor when they made it? Or maybe it was a pebble from the beans, I know you have to go through dry beans to check for stones. Maybe this one made it through QC. It was scary enough to make me not want to go back and eat mush for the time being. read more

This place really is hit or miss. Today I got a burrito with spoiled pork and a greassy Pupusa. The smell of the burrito was so horrible, there is no way the person preparing it could have missed it. read more

I tried this place out because my dad goes here when he wants spanish food so I figure I would give it a try because I'm looking for a good place I can keep going back to and this will be one of the two places. I got a small dish with yellow rice and brown beans with pepper steak. It didn't have any bad tastes to it or anything that grossed me out but it could potentially have a little more flavor to it but besides lacking the flavor I wanted it wasn't bad at all. The staff seemed like normal people not extremely nice but not mean. My favorite go to place!! read more

112 Tequila Restaurant - Sopa de res ... - Spanish Near Me - Coram, New York

I love 112 Tequila food. I order there small plates and sides of macaroni salad. Don't forget about the desserts ( coconut flan) delicious. I also used there catering services for large events. The foods are always fresh, hit and delicious. read more

One of the best places for Spanish food ever. Small, family owned, delicious food. Large portions for low price. You won't find a better deal for food this good. This place started as a small, very small and cramped seating area. Now they have purchased the store next to them and expanded. This goes to show you that with a great product, wonderful service, and determination growth will happen. read more

I've lived in Washington heights and union city NJ. This place is great. Food is fresh and excellent. The. Place is very clean which means a lot to me. read more

The food is good. But I dislike the fact that they charge you different prices for the same thing you've ordered previously. Usually places like this charge 5/6 for a small order but pack it up with food. With them they give you practically nothing and when you ask for them to add a little more they charge you. read more

Wow! All I can say is food is authentic to taste and fresh. Owner is there so he is proud of his food and establishment. Clean!! Clean!! Clean!! Unlike many other places, you walk in and you will not be afraid to sit down to eat. Cuban sandwich is amazing as well as the empenada !! Portions are huge! Come with an appetite! read more

I have been here several times now and this place has been consistently outstanding! It's reasonably priced, huge portions, and amazing food! This little bodega-type store front is is a Latin cuisine heaven. Everything is as close to homemade as you can get it, and no matter what you're in the mood for, they've got you covered. You can order off their mind-blowing menu, or ask for that something specific you want; they've got it, or they'll make it for you. The owner and the rest of the staff, are always very pleasant and super patient with me, the "white guy," asking all sorts of questions, and ordering everything in sight. If you haven't gone here yet... go. Get cultured. This place is the real deal. read more

112 Tequila Restaurant - Spanish Near Me - Coram, New York

If I don't feel like cooking. This is one of my staples for a quick pick up and take home to have for dinner. Early dinner though. Like latest 5:30pm. Their Cubans are very bulky, good but more like a Cuban hero. The pupusas are real good. Get the fully loaded. Very filling. I cannot do more than 2. You have some things that are a little unseasoned. A tad greasy and a lack of love on some things cooked. Majority of the food is good. Like mom made good. I have seen officers come get their food here too. It's legit. read more

While the food here is good there are so many other places to go to get delicious & authentic Spanish food whether it be Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Colombian, much cheaper. Totally overpriced. Example - I ordered Pasteles which were (A) small & (B) wrapped in paper, not even in banana leaf and paid $5 each for a total of $32 for 6. Unheard of and ridiculous...ever since it changed hands a few years ago the prices are out of control. read more

Our favorite spot to grab good food. We used to work in the area and would come here on lunch. We dont work in the area anymore but still make the trip to get lunch as a treat to us. Friendly staff. Clean & Fresh. Would recommend to anyone who's interested! read more

The food is very good. Ownership changed awhile ago. The prices have gone up considerably. I remember a line on a Saturday eve. Some of my friends have said the food is great, but has become too expensive. read more

I've gone here for years and they never disappoint. My favorite restaurant! I recommend it to everyone I meet

I'll put it plain and simple, flavorless food. I'm not impressed at all. The service sucks. I try this place once again and very disappointed read more

Love this place. I'm Dominican and I recently moved to the area. My nail tech recommended this spot since I was missing my Dominican food in Long Island. So glad I found this place. read more

My family and I have been coming here for years. The food is always fresh, delicious, and appealing to the eye. They have new items the menu now because they changed owners. they now make Dominican sandwiches call Chimis made of steak or chicken. they're very filling and you might not be able to eat a whole sandwich. great deal for the money and safe for the family. Excellent combination of Puerto Rican, Salvadoran, and Dominican food. No nasty looking people (tecatos) hanging out either. The owner Francis knows how to treat his customers and the place is immaculately clean. read more

***Delicious/Cheap Latin American food*** Believe the Yelp hype. I've been a couple times, ordered a ton of food, and somehow managed to carry it all back. Be prepared to share. Here are some thoughts on what I have tried: -Cubano: Gotten this multiple times and I'm comfortable saying it's the best I've ever had. Pork is succulent, bread is deliciously warm, crisp and buttered beyond belief but not with a bit to waste. Eating one of these in one sitting is a feat few can accomplish. Not a problem if you're going solo though, as this bad boy is just as good warmed up. The only problem is one sandwich will leave you feeling self-conscious from providing so many high cholesterol meals. Every calorie is seriously worth it though. -Mofongo: Absolutely great. Pork, the less sweet type of plantains, and probably a few other things, all blended together. While that may sound odd, this was great, and the portion is huge. It would be tough to eat completely in one sitting since the pork is filling but is perfect to share and/or warm up repeatedly (although it dries out a little its still delicious out of the microwave). -Pan Relleno de Pollo: Enormous. This seems to be a theme. See attached picture. Seriously this is less a sandwich and more a giant mass of food. Despite its name, don't kid yourself that you will be able to eat this with your hands. Utensils are mandatory. Again, this will probably be more than most can finish in one setting. -Empanadas: At one buck a pop these provide some serious delicious value. Pretty greasy but they are infinitely better than anything you can get on the dollar menu at Taco Bell. -Pupusas: I've been to a variety of places in Long Island/Brentwood and I think I've had better, although these were very good. I preferred their revuelta to queso. -Platanos: delish Takes credit cards? Check. Can phone in orders? Check. Friendly service? Check. Menu with some items that rotate every day of the week? Check. ***Note: although their website doesn't seem to be currently working, you can go to their facebook page and view the menu/pricing on the photos there. FINAL VERDICT: Order a cubano, a couple empanadas, and something you've never heard of before. You will not be disappointed. Just make sure there is plenty of space in the fridge. read more

112 Tequila Restaurant - pan relleno de pollo (yes, this is a sandwich, but note the obligatory utensils) - Spanish Near Me - Coram, New York

Great find! Totally would never have found this place without Yelp. We tried the Tequila Cubano, ribs, potato salad and empanadas. Warning: the Cubano is HUGE (12-18") and will feed 2. The ribs are flavorful and meaty and the only thing that would make them better is to serve them with tortillas. The chicken empanadas we liked better than the beef. Horchata is fresh made--you can't go wrong with a meal from JVs Tequila! read more

Are you kidding me?! Why have I not been eating here on a weekly basis? Look at all these top-notch reviews, they're not kidding. This may be the best cheap eats on Long Island. They have a variety of items (about 5-6) that change on a daily basis. As a total Yanqui, I won't even try to use the Spanish names for stuff since I'll inevitably muck it up - but tonight, I had the BBQ ribs (just sweet enough) and the spicy pork (I didn't really detect the "spicy" but it was delicious too) over yellow rice and some sweet plantains. The ribs were so perfectly cooked that I think I just LOOKED at them and they fell right off the bones. I'm keeping this super short, because I'll inevitably be coming back to give it a much more thorough review. As Nick S said, check their Facebook page for menus and daily specials. Next time I'll probably get it to go, but I'll be bringing home a few more cartons of food to dole out to my family. read more

Gotta love Yelper's!!! This is a step above many Bodegas. It feels more like a small cafe than a Bodegas. Always has music playing and a counter to sit if your solo. Now to the food portion of this review. We order 2 plates of food. One was a spicy pulled chicken with veggies, second was a oxtail and roasted pork shoulder dish, and astly was my chicken mofongo. The 2 plates of food was really good and tasty. The monfongo was good but not the best I had. Hey not to many places around that does make monfongo either. That alone makes it worth wild. They do have many other items listed on the menu I will just have to come back and try them all. All I gotta say is that, if your around the area or if your not, it is worth coming here for some Latin American/ Puerto Rican food. Trust me I venture to many Bodegas from NYC to Brentwood/CI to Florida. This is really tasty food. read more

Thanks to yelp for this one... I usually am pretty curious and go to hole in the wall places, but if it were not for all the great reviews here, I would have never been. So the Cuban sandwich..... Wow. It is excellent. It is terrible for you and it is cut up into 4 pieces. You eat half and you are like OK one more bit. Then you see the last bit that you really do not want to eat at that point but who brings back 1/4 sandwich. Then you feel like you are going to explode. When we went in there the guy at the counter was nice and said they have tacos and burritos perhaps not knowing we want to eat their other stuff. A lot of places I have been to like this the people do not speak English so it is authentic while being approachable. All of the other people in there were from Latin America which is a good sign. They have a convenient paper menu with their very large menu on it in English and Spanish so best thing to do here is stop in get a Cuban and the menu so you can read it at home and decide what you want next time. The hot table changes daily, and they have cheap egg sandwiches in the morning. Will be on the rotation for lunch! read more

Wow! If you're in the area, make sure to give this place a shot. If you're even thinking of going, go! Despite a very unassuming storefront in a tiny strip-mall, this is one of the best sandwiches in the Stony Brook area. First things first, the inside has seating for about 20-25 people with no real thought given to layout besides the drink machines are near the register. There are many miscellaneous items for sale around the store, so it feels to be part convenience store and part restaurant. The walls have various paintings and religious symbols, giving a family-run vibe. Also, I didn't see a posted menu, rather about ten paper cutouts with food items and prices posted above the drink machines. Everything is pretty clean, other than dirt tracked in by customers. As a note, I could not get bathroom light to turn on. Regardless of whether you like how the previous paragraph makes the place sound, the food is fantastic. The Cuban sandwich its just as good as people have said; the tender pulled pork, tangy mustard, savory cheese, and ham come together on fresh bread to form something excellent. Everything looks and smells great! Furthermore, the prices are more than reasonable. I got the Cuban, two empanadas, and a meat-potato for under $12. My only note is that the empanadas were a bit too salty for my taste, but a steal at $1 each. I would go here over Subway any day of the week. The food is excellent, if not the ambiance. Make sure to drop in at least once. read more

Wow where do I start? I've never had a bad meal here! I swear theowner has his Abuela in the back cooking everything!!! The Pernil is simply amazing and drench it in the green salsa, words can't even describe. Everything is yummy and SO INEXPENSIVE!!! We've never spent more than $25 there and we get enough food to feed an Army. read more

If you like Spanish food, this is a great spot. You go there and the food is ready to be served and it is always fresh. They have a variety of options for meats, rice, beans and salads. There are several tables to sit and eat or you can take your food to go. They have a variety of fresh juices as well as Spanish pastries. Go down and enjoy a meal that feels home made. read more

Mucho mucho LENTO. The service is extremely SLOW!!! Also there prices are extremely random, one day I paid $8 for 3 tacos and the next day I paid $12 for the same 3 tacos! This crap happens all the time! The food bar is the only thing that's good, but dont get anything else, they'll loose there minds once you order off the menu! read more

Super inconspicuous strip mall location. it appears to be just a Bodega where you get quarter waters and calling cards. It's way more than that... Seriously don't judge it from the outside. The couple behind the counter are warm and friendly. There's a behind the glass buffet that changes every week. they have a variety of food offerings spanning central and south american. some stuff should be called in ahead mofongo and basteles. They do a mean Cubano and a couple variations on it. there's several fridges filled with ice cold sugary latin drinks. They also have fresh HORCHATA! a Mexican cinnamon rice beverage. you can sit down which is cool because there's a few types of hot sauces. read more

As other have mentioned, a real gem. You can never go wrong with anything off of the hot buffet/steam table (especially the rotisserie chicken- falls off the bone tender). These items rotate every couple of days. The couple of items I've had from the kitchen were also well seasoned, prepared perfectly- tequila cuban panini, caribbean chicken, and any roasted steak. Very friendly, family run, and very clean. read more

The service is terrible! The ladies who work behind the counter have a bad attitude. And this is not the first time! Every single time me and my husband go there, there is an attitude. It's a shame! The food is good but the service is according to the ladies' mood. Also, it's overpriced. If you get something extra, you're paying more than you expect. We won't go back there anymore. There are better places around us with better service and prices. read more

I dont know how hard it is to understand grilled chicken with steamed vegetables and a salad. Ordered once and they messed it up cause it was good food I ordered a 2nd time but the 2nd time they still didnt understand what I was saying. Thats not good when you deal with the public and im all for small businesses but staff needs to understand their own menu and how to communicate and they dont plus its expensive. Not ordering again. read more

This place is awesome. Staff is super friendly (ohhh and im WHITE so for everyone saying the people are racist maybe it was just you? meaning maybe you kinda suck). I try and get there on Saturdays as their pernil is great and every time i was there all the trays looked fresh. Rice and beans is a simple staple, but they do it very well. The Cuban Sandwich was also amazing. big hero pressed with just the right amount of meat and cheese and the classic pickle. Next time i'm going to try the chicken as i heard that was incredible. So if you are looking for a delicious affordable meal with decent size servings and served by a friendly staff this is your spot. read more

My son wanted empanadas tonight so we decided to go here. My husband and daughter got the pernil which is absolutely the best we ever had. I had sweet plantains which were delicious. My son had 4 empanadas an order of the wings and the rice with gandules and he ate every drop. Yup we're going back very soon. read more

The restaurant is clean and has a large selection to choose from. The food is great as well!

I've been going to Tequila for six years now. As a landscaper I eat here typically 2-3 times a week. This place was once a thriving gold mine. It seems all the gold is gone, and the mine is now dry. That's how I feel about Tequila. About two years ago they renovated, added a larger food case, and the owners changed hands. Now nearly two years later the food has become depressingly bad. For starters the recipe's have changed or have been altered to reduce cost which is odd considering the food is more expensive than ever. Two years ago an empanada was $1. A year ago it was $1.25, and now it's $1.50. That would be fine if it was the same empanada they made two years ago, but the recipe has changed, no more cheese oozing out with flavor, no more golden flaky crust and tender chicken or beef. Just dried up fillings in a fried coating that just tastes old. Papusas... burnt, stale, how long have they been sitting there? The previous owner would never allow this, and all the people who used to work there four years ago are seemingly gone. I'm not going to say it's all bad, but they definitely don't take pride in their food anymore. I used to get breakfast here, and they'd be ready at 7:30 with a bunch of fresh cooked food. Nowadays it's empty inside or yesterdays leftovers. No chorizo? Albondigas? Stuffed poblano? I can go on and on, but I hate kicking someone when they're down. There must be a reason all the old employee's have moved on. read more
