“ Great quick food, order the Tamarind Agua Fresca, thank me later. ”
“ This diner is awesome. The food is always so good and the staff are friendly and attentive. They offer a wide selection and so far I have not had a bad meal. It’s a small place but it’s got a nice chill atmosphere. Very glad to have this place so conveniently located in the neighborhood. ”
“ What a gem of a beautiful place. Make sure to check it out. So fresh and tasty. The coffee is out of this world. ”
“ Popped in here for a late lunch after touring Sinatra HS. Months later my daughter and I are still discussing the delicious French toast with fruit and the banana chocolate chip pancakes. The service was efficient and friendly, coffee was abundant, just a nice,easy going local diner. Also, the OJ is fresh squeezed and reasonably priced. We live pretty far away, but it would be worth the trip for a yummy brunch. ”
“ Best Mexican food I’ve had since my time in Mexico City. Ate here yesterday and had to come back tonight. Had shrimp tacos, carnitas tacos, cheese flauta and the avocado salad. Oh! And an agua Fresca. All fresh tasting, light, flavorful. My new go to spot for takeaway. ”
“ Loved this diner so much! Authentic homemade Mexican food, great service and an all round inviting atmosphere. Me and my Mam had Chilaquiles, it was our first time trying them and honestly, nothing will be taste the same when we go back to Ireland as we only have poor quality Mexican franchises. Definitely worth the trip to Queens! Only a few minutes walk from the subway too. Would love to go back! ”
“ Picked up a skirt steak with rice & beans. Guacamole and cheese etc on the side. With fresh lemonade. Everything was good. Thank you. My only complaint is why I could not see the business name on Google while doing a search. Other than that great! ”
“ Fast service, decent food, and airy atmosphere. This diner has the interesting quirk of offering an extensive Mexican food menu in addition to the usual diner staples. While the home fries could have used more salt, the overall experience was still great. The server was chill, the diner was warm, and this was exactly the break I needed while visiting in Astoria. Overall: 9/10. ”
