1st time customer I…read morehad to order the chorizo taco and mole tamale. I ate the chorizo taco while hot. Then, I nibbled on the tamale which got cold and dry and left it uneaten. Perhaps I should've eaten the tamale first. The Passion fruit margarita with casamigos was delicious. A bit too sweet which I'll specify less sweet next time. 4th star cuz its near the subway station. Also, there was a security guard since 9 pm.

Came again a few weeks ago, so need to give them the props they deserve. No doubt I come here for their tacos more than anything else. My favorites include the Lengua (beef tongue), Oreja (pig ear), and Camaron (shrimp). The Al Pastor and Carnitas are great too. All their tacos are always filled to the brim, which is appreciated. I do like their freshly made Guacamole and the Seafood Soup too. However, not a big fan of their cemitas or fluetas. Regardless, most of the food is quite excellent. Open early and close late, this has been a staple in my Mexican diet over the years in the Jackson Heights area. The decor is festive and the service is always friendly. I will continue to visit this Mexican restaurants for my taco fix.

Therefore, three of us came here for lunch the other day. We shared an appetizer and a couple of the lunch specials. I thought the grilled fish that came with chicken soup, rice and beans, salad, and maduro was an excellent deal for $15. The fish was seared nicely and tasted extremely moist. Wish I knew what fish it was, but I suspect it's some type of flaky white fish. I would definitely come back for this dish again. Beef fried rice was not bad, but a bit boring. Lots of sesame oil was clearly used, while the beef was pretty tough. Not my thing. Btw, the Guacamole was very fresh, served with fried plantain chips. The prices are inexpensive and the food is pretty good. I'll definitely return to try more of their menu, especially the lunch specials.

First time at Chiflez and it did not disappoint. I wasn't sure about coming here because I read…read moresome of the negative reviews but decided to come anyway and so glad I did! Our waitress Jil was super attentive and sweet- not just her but all of the waitstaff continued to check on us to see if we needed anything. We ordered food for the kids and it came out right away. Order was big enough for my kids to share. They got the grilled chicken, rice, beans, maduros and fries (freshly cut fries ). I ordered the bolon mixto- so fresh and crispy! I also had the seafood soup it was delicious. My husband had the red snapper he enjoyed that as well. We also ordered the cow feet soup. Everything was really good especially the drinks!

I went to the Tia Julia restaurant after having a few fantastic lunches at their truck, and it was…read moreexcellent! The staff who helped us were very friendly, and the food came out quickly. My huevos rancheros was the perfect amount of food. Just enough to feel pleasantly full, without needing to take leftovers/creating a situation with a soggy tostada or cold over easy fried egg. I love that the fried egg on top of the tostada was just the right size that I could scoop the beans, salsa and avocado onto it and then eat it with my hand without creating a mess (I'm a very messy eater). Beans were salty, creamy and savory, and the pico de gallo tasted tangy and fresh. I don't know where they get their sour cream but I was surprised to notice that such a basic ingredient that's not usually the star of the show tasted so good? Who knows, but that sour cream went perfectly with the rest of the dish. Also when I finished my first egg I was pleasantly surprised to move the wrapper and find that there was a second egg underneath! Truly the bonus Jonas of breakfasts. I will also definitely be coming back here for coffee, it was delicious. I ordered with cream and sugar and it was the perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess, without being sweet to the point that you get that gross sugary coffee aftertaste in your mouth. It may also have had cinnamon or another ingredient, but whatever it was just really hit the spot. The coffee was very hot, but not scalding to the point that I had to wait for it to cool down before drinking. I could sip it right away, having a warm and enjoyable start to my morning. Also there was a very comfortable soft/leather type bench that you can sit and wait at if you're ordering food to go (although I need to come back for a sit down meal because inside was very clean, spacious and cozy). I'm always on the lookout for accessible takeout options! Overall, a delicious option for breakfast and I have no doubts that the rest of their menu is also wonderful. Give this place a try!

Latino Bites is a small, no-frills Colombian eatery that's got a straight-forward menu, good service and AMAZING food. I've only had Colombian food a few times and I was happy to try something new - the menu has photos and descriptions for all different options. My friend'a husband is Colombian so she was very familiar with the menu. The Colombian burgers looked out of this world - also they are huge. BOMBASTIC I would say. But we both went with an Arepa each - I had the Chicken Arepa and my friend had the Chorizo Arepa. So so so good!! When the arepa first comes out, it looks small but once you start eating it, you realize the amount of chicken and the sauces on the arepa makes it very substantial and filling. Served with a little bit of salsa and a little lettuce on the side, it was very satisfying. They also have some juices, sodas, and other food options like tacos, pizza and of course, as mentioned, the burgers! Since I tried to "be good," it will have to possibly be a next-time treat! 9/10 spot; so good that they even have a good truck across the street.

Being this is my initial visit, I had to go with their signature Torta Pumas loaded with everything imaginable. This sandwich is made to order and it is absolutely delicious. I also have to mention this Torta can easily feed a family of 4 and at $22, that is a bargain in New York City. Parking is very difficult around the area as this food truck is located steps from corner of 108th St. and Roosevelt Avenue. However, you get there, I promise you the trip is worth your while. Shout out to the ladies working in the truck. The time I went was so busy yet they handled all customers with a smile and energetic service. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

Grab a meal while watching the ladies make fresh tortillas on the grill is so much fun. It also helps that the owner is very kind. Weekends provide a few specials, including the amazing Mole de Olla (spicy beef stew), which I love. Their Chicharron Prensado Quesadilla was delicious too. Though I am dying to come back for their other weekend special, Spicy Pork Rib on Taco. Notable mention goes to their Lemonada, which is not too sour or too sweet, just right. Horchata was decent too.

I ordered a Birria Taco ($4.75), Birria Tostada ($4.75), and Birria Fries ($10), and took my meal to go. The taco was filled with tender, flavorful meat, though I found myself missing the consommé -- a dip would've really enhanced the flavor. The tostada featured the same tender meat, topped with onions, queso, sour cream, and guacamole. I actually preferred this over the taco; the crispy shell held up nicely under all the toppings and wasn't greasy at all. The fries were also tasty, though I'd probably only order them again if I were dining in. By the time I got home, they had lost some of their crispiness. They came topped with the same tender beef, sour cream, and guacamole, though the meat here was a bit drier -- understandably, since juicy beef would've turned the fries soggy. There were a few other items on the menu (like the Mulitas, noodles, and esquites) that caught my eye, and I'll definitely be trying them on my next visit.
