We visited on a Friday night and ate at the bar. We ordered the steak tacos and guacamole and both were delicious! The drinks were excellent, we had the classic margarita and the el beso cocktail. The owner and bartenders were very nice and made sure that we were having a great experience. We will definitely be returning! read more

Went for early Father's Day dinner. We first ordered some drinks and chicken nacho chips which were delicious and service was excellent. For main course I had the fish tacos which was not good. Too much batter and the fish inside was soggy with no flavor. The others 3 dishes my family ordered the meat were really salty, and the medium well steak was tough and dry, The side dishes that came with the main dishes were good especially the rice and beans. Music was too loud. Overall we found this dinner experience not enjoyable read more

I've came to eat here several times. Usually get the same order ( Nachos) Now when I placed the order I had asked specifically for no jalapeños. My order came out, it had jalapeños on it, No problem. I asked for it to be removed, there was no real structure in the restaurant. I had different servers coming to me as if there wasn't a server assigned. I understand places get busy but that's why there's more than one server to serve and attend the tables. I got the plate again for the second time & By the time I got it, I wasn't really hungry. As I'm putting it To-go I see that there is still one jalapeño in my dish which seems to me they hand picked it out of my food? I don't see how ONE jalapeño can appear in my dish after I asked for them to provide me with a dish without jalapeños. What if I had an allergic reaction. These orders should be throughly checked before bringing them out to ensure a customers safety if they're making requests for their meal. read more

The food was pretty good, no complaints. However, the service was very slow. Also, they added a 18% gratuity to the check. I've seen this policy elsewhere for large parties, but there were only two of us. Additionally, they added 3.25% to the check for using a credit card (see photo). I would expect that policy at a bodega or dive bar, but not a fine dining establishment. Lastly, the music was way too loud. It's a restaurant, not a dance club. We couldn't carry on a conversation. read more

This cozy place has become a favorite! My only experience is at the bar, the staff, especially Joel ( Bartender ), are very pleasant, attentive & personable. The music playlist is just right, the ambience perfect. I highly recommend you check it out for yourselves. The drinks are also very well prepared, try the amazing Midnight Sour! Oh and the Tuna Tartare...perfection. read more

Went here for the first time with my family last night. We were craving Mexican so decided to try this place out. It was an early Valentines dinner. This place was amazing, nice ambiance, great atmosphere, fast service and delicious food. We all enjoyed our meal so much, will definitely come back again with our friends and recommend this restaurant to others. read more

Came here on a date with my husband (new parents!) There was no one else in the restaurant, but we were in between meal rushes. So the service was pretty great. We enjoyed the food - and the drinks! Everything was fresh and flavorful. I had the suadero tacos, which I'd definitely order again. The chips and salsa for the table were tasty as well. I get what people are saying about it being a bit pricey, but I don't agree. We were happy with the portion sizes - not enough for leftovers, just enough. read more

The food was delicious especially the quesadillas and fajitas also the ambiance was super party like and fun and enthusiastic.The service was great they consistently asked us if we wanted something and they were attentive.I don't know if I would recommend this place for someone with a wheelchair disability but if it's not busy for sure it's nice to go to. read more

Spanglish is a beautiful neighborhood GEM! The food is delicious, if you know what to order. Couple of disappointing points... the service was slow... and we were the 2nd table in the restaurant on a Friday late afternoon. There was no salsa and chips when you first come to the table -- I had to double check if this is a Mexican restaurant. We did order chips and guac. and queso fundido but did not get any chips and salsa. We order 4 items, carne asada (delicious) comes with rice and beans, shrimp enchiladas was delicious but disappointed it did not come with rice and beans. Chicken quesadilla - good. AND Mahi Mahi tacos - fish was about 2 inch long and deep fried --- which came out last about 10 minutes after all the other dishes was on the table. Therefore, our dishes were cold by the time the tacos came out. OVERALL it was a delicious experience. So glad its in the neighborhood. Better than the selections we have now. IT's a ticket shocker! Be ready for a big bill! read more

I've only been here three times so far, but every time I come I am greeted with a great atmosphere and excellent service. The food is amazing and the drinks are some of the best in Queens. If your ever in the Bayside area you should stop by and give it a try. read more

First time here and the meal and service were outstanding! Kudos to the chef and staff. Thanks fir coming to Bayside. 07/06/2019: We loved the food so much the first time that we decided to come back with friends. They did not disappoint! From the delicious tuna tartare to the carne asada and Tres Leches dessert, it was for a 2nd time an outstanding meal. read more

I was really on the fence between 3stars or 4 stars because the main entrees (carne asada and pollo al sarten) were great but the simple sides (regular guac and the rice and beans) weren't. We were the only ones dining since it's like zero degrees outside!!! So maybe that added to the attentiveness of the waitress. Either way, the waitress was very nice and friendly. Pollo al sarten : "the adobo sauce was bangin!" Says my partner. He really liked it and was very satisfied. Carne Asada : great flavor, super juicy. There were so fatty parts mid cut which i had to cut around but otherwise, almost perfect steak! No sauce necessary! Regular guac : it tasted like a really freshly made guacamole but it was almost flavorless. It didn't do anything for me. Maybe that carne guac would be a better option but I wouldnt recommend the regular one. The side rice and beans : the rice to me tasted like it was made from a microwave. It wasnt good and it's just white rice!!! Prices were a bit high considering what we ate but overall, I would recommend this spot! read more

Went to get a car inspection that was going to take at least 3 hours so we decided to go on a hunt for dinner and found this place. My husband, 9 month old son and I took a seat in the first of the back 2 tables in order to accommodate a stroller (this place doesn't have high chairs). We decided to get the guacamole with pineapple as an appetizer, the paella and pork tacos to share, and mashed potatoes for the baby. Well the guacamole was so good that even the baby ate it up and cried for more! The paella was nice and flavorful with plenty bits of meat, and seafood, and 4 mussels. It was a very healthy portion. I know mashed potatoes are simple to make but I like that these were mashed well enough that my toothless son was able to enjoy because it wasn't overly seasoned. The carnitas were delicious but would have been even better with some type of greens guacamole and sour cream. Overall the ambiance was nice, and very clean. The staff was pleasant and very attentive. My only suggestion would be that the bathroom needs a changing table for anyone with a baby. read more

Hola! Decided to try some Mexican food on this lovely Thursday. It wasn't the first choice for dinner but it was good! The guacamole and salsa was on point. However, my Mahi Mahi tacos were mediocre, they were sort of dry. The scenery and atmosphere made up for it. Adios! read more

I had the camarone's with mashed potatoes and loved it. My date seemed to like his enchiladas. Both the queso fundido and pineapple guacamole apps were great. The music also had me bopping in my seat all night! Dislikes were the desserts being meh and the noise level at an extreme. Super small place with very trendy decor. Many might like the look but for me a little overdone read more

Nothing special about this place. $40 for a simple burrito, quesadilla and a can of coke in extremely noisy environment wasn't worth. The next table party of 6 or 8 were extremely loud but staff had no guts to tell them to keep it down considering other guests besides them. My wife and I couldn't even a word. Will never go back. read more

Food was great. We ordered enchiladas (one beef, one chicken) and the meat was tasty and tender, and both dishes were delicious. We also ordered a chicken burrito which was excellent too. The salsa has pineapple on it, which gives it a fresh and sweet flavor. read more

What a nice addition to Bayside. I really enjoyed the food here. We started off with guacamole and chips. The guacamole was great. I had the pollo al sarten. It was very good. I enjoyed the potatoes and seasoning. I had this cool dessert that was a melting white chocolate dome with ice cream. You pour hot milk on it and it melts and you are left with ice cream and melted white chocolate. The servers were great. The interior was great. The owner and his girlfriend were great hostesses. My only complaint is that it should be rated $$$ not $$. It was a bit pricey. read more

Awesome time here during cinco de mayo. Miosuky was theeee best server , place was packed but she checked in on us constantly to make sure drinks were filled and food was coming . Amazing shrimp and. Empanadas !!! read more

Not sure how this place is so highly rated. We were craving tacos and came here because of the ratings. Got the carnitas tacos. $3 each special. They were not good. Weird chewy, fatty chunks of meat. Also ordered the mixed fajitas. Chicken was tough, skirt steak was not sliced properly and chewy, shrimp were tiny and overcooked. Way too much paprika, yet pretty bland in flavor. 1/4 of a blackened avocado on top. Also ordered a pina colada and coconut mojito. Drinks were fine. Most redeeming piece of this meal was the beet salad. It wasn't extraordinary but it was better than everything else combined. At over $100, I feel ripped off. Honestly would've had more flavorful Mexican food at Taco Bell. Very disappointed! read more

To start off, the ambience was great really good DJ. I ordered the Mexican hamburger, AMAZING it had a little mild kick to it which made it phenomenal. Service was fast and efficient I was feeling a little sick and the whipped me up a special cocktail tea and it was really good. My cousin and I recommend this place %1000. read more

This place was very accommodating, they allow dogs in the outside portion which was clutch for us since we had our pupper with us. The food was good! Drinks good! Service was a bit slow, however I'll toss that up to Covid. read more

The drinks needed more liquor and the food was very bland. The appetizer and the main course had no flavor. I'm surprised for a Spanish spot - no sazón whatsoever. Bland seems to be the ongoing theme. Disappointed. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I fell in love with this place! I've always heard good things so my husband and I decided to give it a try! Let me start by saying, hands down they are following all guidelines during this pandemic. They checked temperatures upon arrival and had you write down your contact info. The menu was also touch free; they have you scan a barcode from your phone! I felt very comfortable with how spaced out they had the tables and they had plastic shields between each table as well. Now let's get to the good stuff, I ordered the red Sangria- they did not disappoint with the flavor or the amount of wine! Next, we tried the Mexican wings. They deserve a round of applause for the wings themselves. Have y'all ever been to the restaurant called Tangra? Well it immediately reminded me of their lollipop chicken. It's also worth a trip! But let me focus back on Spanglish! I really appreciate this place. They dimmed the lights, the music was just right and it was just the perfect date night! I also had the chicken quesadilla, which was also really tasty and I maybe ate too much. We finished off with dessert; the churros and the chocolate cake! Both were really good and a great way to end the night. I liked that they don't try to rush you out, the staff was very friendly! And last but not least, the bathroom was SO clean, and the Lighting! I mean bring your phone because it's selfie worthy. Thank you Spanglish, I will be back! read more

My first time here. Me and some friends were looking for a nice bar for some good drinks. I asked my boyfriend, he highly recommended this place. Then boom The drinks were sooooo good. The staff are so friendly. Definitely will come again. read more

As we stood in line to get drinks, one of the managers (woman with red head) yelled at us telling us to get out of the restaurant and to form the line outside as if we knew. We had masks on and there were no signs or servers telling us what to do to get take out drinks. The lack of professionalism and disrespect she had gave us a poor taste of the restaurant's service. read more

Um.. I waited more than an hour to get my tacos. I went there when restaurants are only allowed to have outdoor dining. So, I get that they might have had less staff working in the kitchen. But.. there were only 2-3 other tables besides us. Seriously.. how long does it take to make tacos? Overall food quality was okay. Not my favorite, but my friend loved it. But, was it worth waiting more than an hour to get tacos? Hmm.. questionable. read more

FYI: THEY CHARGE CREDIT CARD FEE + MANDATORY TIP FOR TWO PEOPLE. I went with my boyfriend on a sunday, food was ok and service was good. I loved that the drinks come in togo bottles ! However they charged a credit card fee? what restaurant charges customer the credit card transaction fee? Also they added a mandatory 20% tip for two people. ??? I was satisfied with the service so didn't complain, i just paid and left but makes no sense to me read more

Delicious food and drinks. My husband and I ordered some drinks and food to go and really enjoyed it. Food is really fresh and tasty. Drinks are strong and delicious. Highly recommended. read more

I went with my family of four the food was amazing the drinks were great . The employees were very nice and helpful. Will definitely come back read more

I got a take out order from here last night and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. We ordered some quesadillas, nachos, wings, and margaritas. The staff was kind, polite, friendly, and helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. I haven't had quesadillas that good in a very long time! I can't wait to come back here when the restrictions are lifted and eat a great meal in this cute restaurant. For now, I'll get takeout and enjoy their great food and drinks at home. read more

I went here last night due to the hype around this place. Honestly this place is just hype, there was nothing special about the food the flavor wasn't there for me. The tables are weird and small. The place is pricey but that's probably due to the area. The drinks were good, the white chocolate dome was nasty whatever sauce they poured on it smelt horrible. This place is a one and done for me. If your on the fence give it a try. The hot sauce gave the food some flavor. read more

The drinks were good. The service was good until you ask for the bill. It takes them forever to give you the change back. This was the case two times in the roll. The first time, the bill was $59, I gave them $100 for change, she gave me a two $20s and a follow bill. I had two get a change again to give a tip. The second time we went, the food and drink came out quick, but the change took 20 mins. We had to walk to the bar to get the change read more

I ordered the steak torta. The steak was dry and barelt seasoned. The taste was very bland. The sandwich haf mistmy cheese and beens and nit much steak. I took one bite. Our waitress seemed like she was just gkibg throughbthe motions and never checked up on us. We also realized that the online menu prices were cheaper than the price we paid. When I informed our waitress she explained that shecis aware that they keep changing prices and there is nothing she can do. Bad chip on her shoulder or just doesn't care. My advice to management is to train staff on customer service and friendliness. Also check the food quality before it is served to the customers. We unfortunately will not return. We also have out of town family coming to visit Bayside and we were initially going with Spanglish but have since changrf our minds. read more

Food was good ! The only problem was the music was too loud , for a small place they had a Spanish dancer , which is a nice touch , if you were actually able to see her read more

Drinks!!!! Appetizers!!! Outdoor seating and DJ. Sidewalk seating. Come with a small group of friends 6-8. You'll have a fun time and get a buzz. read more

Pretty good. Sidewalk shed felt a bit cramped. Get rid of the faux plants. They're kinda tacky and get in the face of customers. Had four different types of tacos: shrimp, pork, fish and steak. The pork was a bit dry and the fish had a mayonnaise based sauce I didn't love but, nonetheless, a solid place for Mexican in Bayside. Definitely helps that it's in the stretch of Bell Boulevard that is closed off on weekends. Creates a lively atmosphere. Will try it again at some point. read more

My husband and I have gone to Spanglish about 5 times this year, and I must say we feel it gets better every time. Hands down one of the best service on Bell! We love love their guacamole with chorizo so much we ordered 2 from our most recent visit with friends a couple weeks ago. Really nice ambiance and we were pleasantly surprised by the live music with a female singer for a couple hours. Restaurant reminds me of establishments you'd find in the village.... I really love that small cozy feel with high energy.... lighting is fantastic. Their cocktails were right on point! And I'd go back there just for the flan! read more
