1.0 First Impressions As a first-time visitor, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Ecuadorian cuisine — but Dinastia Ecuadorian Food made a lasting impression. I was drawn in by the high local ratings, the Spanish-speaking community nearby, and the inviting, neighborhood corner location. It felt authentic and grounded, with a relaxed, casual atmosphere. Upon entering, there was live music playing, which gave the space a lively, cultural energy. The waitress greeted me kindly and let me sit by the

Casual restaurant offering Mexican fare, including design-your-own burritos, tacos & bowls.
walked in like 30 minutes before closing and ngl i was with my step moms and i told one of the workers (very chill btw) to help me make a bigass burrito and we was just having laughs while making it all three of us. he was very kind amazing and the best one there was at the time (february 28th 2026) i was high key drunk which made the scenario 20 times better and ngl j wanted to ask the guy for his socials cuz he seemed chill and lowkey wanted to be friends with the guy (if you see this my usern

INCREDIBLE! The roti canai, shrimp nasi goreng and momos all hit. Strong recommend if you are passing through (eg on the way home from LGA) and want a tasty meal Note: Not a ton of seating but it gets the job done.

Chicken cutlet and bacon slice - fresh chicken and the bacon was cooked perfectly. Buffalo chicken slice - has a nice kick to the buffalo sauce and the chicken was fresh. Regular sicilian - very flavorful, fluffy and good sauce. All 3 slices had beautiful undercarriage, no flop!

Casual counter-serve chain for build-your-own sandwiches & salads, with health-conscious options.
There was a deal for feb 6 which is cool and all but my regular subway wasnt doing the promotion which is also fine so i decided to give this store a try and never again, the sub was literally like two slices of ham and some left over salad put together, absolutely atrocious, I might have well stole a homeless guys sub it probably has more nutritionally things in it than that piece of stale bread with leftovers slapped between them.

I love coming to this place, they don’t have much variety in the menu but what they have makes me feel when I used to get out of school and couldn’t wait to be at home because I wanted to see what moms cooked for us, I knew it was going to be something delicious, so this is how exactly I feel here, so simple so delicious and best part is the service, the ladies are always so friendly. 🫶🏻

EL PASILLO is such a wonderful place. It's that rare bar for the working class, the type of bar that isn't seen that often anymore because of all those new "hipster/fancy" bars being created or old bars turning into that as-well. It's the type of place you go after a hard days work, to be able to relax, and forget all those struggles a day at your job may provide. It's might be a a bit small, but not lacking in comfort at the same time. It's not only that, it's a place where anybody who wants to

Amazing Thai spot! I’ve been to many Thai restaurants in the U.S., and BAHT really stands out. The food, drinks, and overall vibe are all on point — everything I ordered was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The place is owned and operated by a new generation of Thai owners, and you can really feel the modern touch mixed with authentic Thai soul in every detail. We started with Empanadas, which had a nice crisp and savory filling — a great start. For mains, the Pla Tod (whole fried fish wi

Can’t get enough of this place and it’s consistently good every time. Usually go to their original upstairs location but on Monday’s that one is closed so I finally sat at the second location (this one). My must orders are spicy beef tongue and steamed beef momo, loaded with their spicy sauce and chili oil. Tried the Lhasa fried noodles for the first time and loved it so that might be added to my must order list. Heads up, cash only.

It was a unique experience, def faster in terms of food delivery compared to other apps, and who doesn't mind $0 delivery fee. I must say though, portion size could be an issue if you are paying city level prices in Queens on some items. Hope they take the feedback and enact accordingly. Also, their customer service was fast, as I tried fixing my delivery address issue caused automatically by the app.

Spent almost $70 here for some of the most disappointing food I’ve had in a while. I ordered 9 tacos and somehow only got 8 when I got home. On top of that, they charged extra for sauce, which literally no taco place I’ve ever been to does and the sauce wasn’t even good. It tasted watered down.The tacos themselves were terrible. The meat looked burnt, tasted burnt, and honestly looked nasty. They wrapped them up so messy it looked like a giant burrito instead of tacos. Then the nachos were a jok

I bought "pan con queso" there was a tiny piece of cheese. I went back to say where is the cheese and she said that's how they make it. The small cheese was a lil less than the side of my finger. It's such a ripe off. 7$ for a bread that was stale, kind of raw (which should be a health concern) and gross and a piece of cheese. Disgusting. This place should shut down!! Avoid this place at all cost!!!!

Takeaway Chinese spot offering familiar fare, plus BBQ chicken & rib dishes.
The reason I marked this low is this is not Chinese food. It is Indian food. Threw most of it away. Fried rice terrible... not fried, no egg, no anything but meat and something that made it yellow. The chow fun was no fun no taste, glass noodles, a tasteless mess.

If you are in the mood for a crepe, this Japanese style crepe shop will do the trick. The quality of the crepe was very good. We had the strawberry, banana, and Nutella and it was very enjoyable. My 7 year old loved it! The service was very pleasant. There was no line and our fresh crepes came out nice and warm. This is definitely a nice addition to the neighborhood.

I haven’t had the actual pizza but was looking for pizza dough in the neighborhood to make pizza at home with my kids. The guys were so sweet. When Champion tried to charge me a whole cooked pie for a ball of raw dough, Lucia did not disappoint. The dough was delicious, the service impeccable. I will be back for the pizza when I feel less ambitious.

I drove 45 minutes from bushwick to come get a plate! I got there at opening so there was no wait. The service was nice & welcoming. They took down my number to call me back when the food was ready & the wait was less than 10 minutes. I’ve ate this plate from various places but I would say this is my favorite now. The food was soooo good! I got the steak with rice & a cheese empanada & jugo de parcha slushie! The slushieee was my fav. The empanada was nice and cheesy, not empty. The food was coo

Louisiana-inspired fast-food chain known for its crispy fried chicken, chicken sandwiches & fries.
Went to see the "new place". I love biscuits so I got some type of combo that had chicken, biscuits, cajun fries, and mashed potatoes. The place is small so there's a bar area to eat and a couple of tables to eat at. The family loved the chicken and potatoes. There's lots of dipping sauces to choose from. Make sure to ask for them before leaving. Staff is nice and the place is clean.

The service was horrible. My mom placed an order and once we got home we noticed we were missing a dish. She kindly called and let them know because she was charged for it. The lady who picked told her it wasn’t her problem and refused to help and rudely hung up. My mom called back and the call went straight to voicemail.

ECUADOR 🇪🇨 Eat the World NYC review: As you might expect if you know a little bit of Spanish, a picantería is traditionally a place that sells spicy foods. Typically a lunch establishment, the word is actually more associated with the country of Perú than Ecuador, but in New York City it seems exclusively reserved for establishments of the latter's community. Often times they are open for dinner as well here, and serve as a watering hole like this one in Jackson Heights that I have always been

I went there on December 31st to get some dessert for the new year. I got two tres leche , one Oreo cake and two pieces of pineapple cakes. The two tres leche were expired they were at least two weeks old we could eat then I had to throw it away as well as the Oreo cake was hard and tasted really bad it was not fresh at all. The only one that were kinda ok was the two pieces of cake but the pineapple feeling tasted so fake as if they use caned pineapple or something. Overall I spent $30 dollars

I’ve come here many times before (usually with my friend)but this time was such a disappointing experience. The worker was extremely rude, and my order was handled terribly. I ordered an açaí bowl — my order number was around 76 — but people who ordered after me (in the 80s) were getting their food first, even though they ordered full crêpes, not just drinks. When I finally got my bowl, it looked like soup, and they barely added any peanut butter — literally a tiny teardrop amount. When I polit

Welcoming coffeehouse with handcrafted coffee, espresso & tea, plus breakfast, lunch & pastries.
I’ve been to this coffee shop a few times now, and every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. The place has a modern, stylish design that feels warm and inviting. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance sets the tone—relaxed, clean, and perfect for anything from getting some work done to just taking a quiet break in the middle of the day. What really makes the experience stand out is the staff. Every time I’ve been there, they’ve been friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They alwa

First time trying a new frozen yogurt place. It was not what I expected. You do get to choose and pour from the machines yourself. Some of the yogurts were watery. We chose a couple of toppings & pricessss are not shown anywhere but they costed a lot. I don’t mind paying for a good frozen yogurt. Overall I was not happy & I will not be returning.

Was recommended by my coworker. The food was so good, I was scraping the plate. The horchata and melon fresca were so gooooood. The enchilada verde was saucy and delicious, I added a lot of that green sauce on every bite, I like that taste =w=. The Chorizo quesadilla was tasty too, a good portion. I was even surprised with a birthday flan~ They got me good. I shall return to try the other dishes :9.

Love this small and cost bakery. I go almost every morning. Their hot and iced coffees are very good. One particular lady makes them well. I also get a buñuelo or a pan de bono. Both are delicious, fresh and warm. There are several Colombian bakeries near my job but all fall extremely short compared to La Montaña. This is the best one.
