My favorite Mexican place in Astoria, I would give this a 3.5 were it possible, but I'm always so satisfied that I'll bump it up to a 4. The food is very good, taste fresh, huge portions and its cheap! I've ordered in from this place a few times, but have yet to eat in the restaurant so this review is mainly about the food.
I really enjoy the tacos. Queso is excellent, its grilled white cheese, i usually get it with guacamole. Its a nice size taco with tons of flavor for 2.50. The carnitas is very good. Its lean, cooked well and tasty. The rice and beans are very good, standard. I've had the green and red tamales, they are excellent and taste fresh, with lean chicken or pork inside. The nachos are standard, very good, and the chips were not stale, which is the norm when I get mexican in Astoria. What we usually order are the Tortas. They are HUGE, excellent value for $6-$7. I enjoy the Piernas Torta, the spicy pork leg is very good. Excellent sandwiches, big enough to have 1/2 for lunch and 1/2 for dinner. Their fried shrimp is a dish I like very much, they use large shrimp, fried well in I believe breadcrumbs until crispy.
If you are thirsty they have an excellent Mexican hot chocolate! Its warm and perfectly seasoned, really unique hit sweet drink. They also carry large bottles of Jaritos, Tamarindo is my favorite. They are very nice over the phone and the food arrives very fast. Huge portions and cheap prices, highly recommended for delivery!
