The staff here is great but it was freezing inside they must of just opened and didn't feel any heat so we got the food to go. The quesadillas were very soggy. The steak taco was very dry. And the taquitos were bland. This is very unfortunate because I love Mexican food I hope they see this review and make some changes. Overall I'll give them another try.

Disgusting!! To make a nasty taco is a disgrace. How this place has 4 stars is a joke they had to have paid for them. I asked for sour cream and they have the nerve to call me to say that would have to be a side order!! Excuse me?? 3 tacos and a quesadilla and I can't get sour cream?? I got two lil sauces and a stomach that hurt with this disgusting food. Tacos are many peoples happy place and this place should be out of business Nothing do you hear me nothing was good about this order they're paying for good reviews. Stay clear!!

Nice little restaurant in the middle of the block , I actually Yelp this place up. It was the closed Mexican restaurant around my area. I decided to give them a try, I called to order at first, it was sad to be notified that they don't deliver more then a certain radius. The delivery guys don't drive they deliver by foot or bicycle. I was 0.9 miles away, which they decline delivery. What the hell, I decided to go pick it up myself, not gunna judge base of delivery options. I ordered their tacos and quesadilla along with the guac and chips as a appetizer. Food was on point very authentic. I love the texture of the taco, and a quesadilla was delicious. Out of all the Mexican places I've tried, this is actually going to be my go to spot. Price is a little bit on the expensive side, but foods on point.

We've ordered take-out from Fidela's Restaurant a few times, and think they could do better. Dishes We've Tried: - Enchiladas De Pollo Con Mole Poblano: Probably the best dish we tried. The mole sauce leaned towards simple and sweet, but the chicken was moist and tender. I'd be happy if I could combine Mexology's mole with Fidela's chicken. - Taco Al Pastor: Pineapple / pineapple flavors were not particularly detectable. - Pollo Con Mole Poblano Burrito: like eating a black bean and rice sandwich. Could use more chicken. - Tinga de Puebla: the beef brisket was stringy, chewy and tough. It is better to use Fidela's own website instead of Yelp / Grubhub to order food online. Fidela's offers a 10% discount for a first order, and a 5% discount for subsequent orders placed at their own website.

While in this area of Queens you don't have too many choices for authentic Mexican food. Well once I ordered from here and then a day later ordered again, I am very pleased with this place. Ordering from a Resturant can be tricky when it comes to getting extras or removing items from an order, but they did so well making sure to follow directions. I ordered the camarones burrito (ITS HUGE....or shall o say a decent size!!!) and had vegan cheese in place of the regular and ceviche each time. They were both delicious each time!! I wish I could figure out a way they could wrap the burrito in something rather than just the tin because the tortilla gets a bit wet. Had to "George foreman" it a bit to add some crisp to the tortilla. The ceviche was really delicious. Taste very fresh and enjoyable. Once I can have a dine in experience I will hopefully be able to give them a five star rating!!! All in all, this place is delicious with reasonable prices. I will be back!

I have ordered from here twice after my first review and I really want to love this place but it falls short for me every single time. I was really craving some real tacos tonight so we ordered the: carne asada tacos Carnitas tacos shrimp taco Guacamole and chips Chicken quesadilla Cheese quesadilla Burger with fries The shrimp was yummy. Nice flavor and wasn't dry. The steak and pork were both the driest, blandest tacos I've ever had. Now I've had some good homemade carnitas before and this was like eating sandpaper. I am so disappointed. The quesadillas were good. The guacamole was good as well. Nothing really WOWed me and made me go "mmmmmm!" The toppings were minimal. Good portions otherwise. Anyway. I guess if I was ever in the mood for a quesadilla or a shrimp taco, I would stop here again. But I would never order another taco and that's really what we're here for isn't it? So I'm off to find another place to satiate my cravings unfortunately.

I just love family-run authentic ethnic restaurants! Fidela's has been on my radar since they opened and I finally went since I was in the neighborhood for a dentist appointment. Plenty of street parking; some paid meters. This is more of a takeout place than a dine-in restaurant; although if you'd like to dine-in (post Covid19), they do have a few tables. This was the most calm, demure, and efficient Mexican restaurant I've ever been in. I appreciated the stress-free takeout experience, during Covid19! Fidela's has a pretty good variety of offerings on their menu. So many choices; they ALL sound delicious. On this visit, we opted to try their quesadillas and tacos. Tacos: I really appreciated that they wrapped each tacos in a way that any excess liquid will drip inside the wrapping and NOT make a huge mess. Honestly, these are probably the neatest tacos I've ever eaten! haha Also, the filling in the tacos were VERY generous! We tried 3 kinds and each kind was delicious. Each taco comes with a wedge of lime. Tacos we tried: ~ Carnes Asada (grilled steak) - $3.50 ~ Barbacoa (slow cooked goat) - $3.50 ~ Al Pastor (pork w.pineapple) - $3.00 Quesadillas: They have "Traditional" Quesadillas (made with fresh corn tortillas) and "Synchronized" Quesadillas (made with flour tortillas). We tried two of their traditional quesadillas; both were fresh and tasty but a little bit messy to eat. The fillings in these quesadillas were not as generous as the tacos but still delicious. Quesadillas (traditional) we tried: ~ Tinga (shredded beef brisket) - $3.50 ~ Huitlacoche (corn mushroom) - $3.50 Hot sauce: they offer 2 kinds of sauce; both served on the side. The green sauce has great flavor but not enough heat, so add some of the red sauce along with the green for maximum flavor and heat. All in all, the food was fantastic and I can't wait to return to try their Tortas and Burritos! Tasty and inexpensive; Fresh ingredients. I shall be back...

Fidela's is the sister restaurant to De Mole Astoria (not sure about the other De Moles in Woodside and Bklyn) that opened in this area a little more than a year ago. This hole in the wall is a Godsent in this immediate area of Queens lacking great dining options, never mind fantastic Mexican food which Fidela's certainly and consistently delivers. Lately I have been ordering here weekly because although so much of their food is great it is the pierna torta (braised pork leg) that I have become obsessed with - this is a packed sandwich with pork that is oh so good. Smokey, porky, slightly bacony, perfectly seasoned and juicy pork is out of this world. Before I stumbled upon this torta my go to was either the tacos or burritos. Lately I've been enjoying the shrimp with vegetables burrito - its a bit of lighter compliment to the pork torta where I will order both and make 2 to 3 meals out of it (yeah, they are that generous). I ordered the nachos for the 1st time today and was pleasantly surprised that this was more of a constructed 7 layer dip in the sense that the nachos were perfectly positioned on a solid base of creamy black beans and cheese with dollops of pico de gallo, sour cream and guacamole. All really fresh and really good. If you are vegan/vegetarian you have thoughtful options here. The seitan (hehe.. Satan) burrito with spinach and tofu sour cream is satisfying delicious where you won't miss the meat. The sauteed garlic spinach quesadilla is packed with so much green you will believe you just erased a months worth of food sins after you finish. The flor de calabaza (squash blossom) is another interesting delicious choice. Love their aqua frescas as well - hibiscus or tamarind (my preferred) are light and refreshingly not too sweet. Don't forget dessert with tres leches and flan variations.

In an area that does not have too many options for Mexican food, Fidela's Restaurant offers a variety of Mexican dishes that fit your cravings. From tacos to enchiladas to tortas, Fidela's has something for everyone. I had a carne asada burrito along with a grilled chicken quesadilla (The quesadilla I got is one of the sinchronizada ones on the menu). First thing that sticks out to me are the portion sizes! The burrito is huge and it is quite filling on its own. The quesadilla is decently sized as well and perfect for sharing with someone else. They also provide salsa roja and salsa verde on the side, so that you can add some heat to your food. The burrito was quite good, as the carne asada was full of flavor and had the tiniest kick to it. There was also a hefty amount of rice and beans inside, which was good, but definitely needed some of the salsa to kick it up a notch. Both salsas weren't too spicy and the salsa verde gives a nice tang to your meal. The burrito is definitely worth your money and you won't have to worry about still feeling hungry after you're done. There's also some pico de gallo on the side, so you get a bit of added crunch to the burrito. The quesadilla was solid, though I couldn't taste much of the cheese at first. The quesadilla was stuffed with lettuce, chicken, cheese, and pico de gallo. The chicken was seasoned well and had good flavor, but it never hurts to add a bit of salsa. Time-wise, it didn't take long between placing an order and receiving our food, maybe 15 minutes in total. Everything was also neatly packed into separate takeout containers, so nothing spilled on the way back. Overall, Fidela's Restaurant is a good option if you need to satisfy your Mexican food craving. There are a variety of options for you to pick from and the portions are huge, so you are definitely getting the bang for your buck.

Authentic Fresh Mexican Food. I had 5 tacos each one a different flavor. They all tasted good but similar to each other. The meats were dry though, the hot sauce and lime juice greatly made it flavorful and delicious. It felt like it was missing something though and I could not put my finger on it. After I was done, I remembered that there was no salsa, guacamole, sour cream. I would have paid extra. The tacos were filling. I got full after 3 , and I eat a lot of food. The food makes you feel alive after eating it compared to fast or fried food. Great food and prices.
