Half of the burrito was white rice & the other was Mexican rice, the cheese was not at all melted and became one big sticky lump and the steak was not seasoned, hard and smelly. Hopefully your experience will be better than mine, because I'm definitely never going back to this place.

Good spot for reliable Mexican food in Sunnyside, I like it!…read more Been meaning to try this spot for a while now, as I live in Woodside and have been by the place hundreds of times. Finally gave 'em a try. (They also recently repainted the front and added a fun, kinda festive twist to their look too - helped coax me in.) Would've loved to actually dine in, because the interior is pretty cozy and the decor's adorable. As it happens, I just wanted some take away and ordered my stuff to go. Went with their Enchilada, some Elotes, Grilled Cactus, and some classic Guacamole and chips. All of which tasted great - but I realized they forgot to put in the Guac. I was feeling annoyed about the mixup at first, but the restaurant tracked ME down and apologized over the phone, and immediately offered to do a special delivery run just to get me my food! They even threw in a couple extras / some Coca Cola by way of an apology. Food's good, customer service is excellent, definitely a fan of this spot. 10/10 service.

I told the girl who rang me up and she didn't think there was a problem, so I told her I wanted something else. She mentioned how all their chicken is that way. So I said "all your chicken is old?" She said "yes". Absolutely disgusting Unfortunately they don't offer refunds so I ended up getting the beef quesadilla, the beef was fatty and bland. Skip this place! They obviously don't care about the quality or taste of their food

I had high hopes for this place because every time I pass by it's busy inside. Went there after an…read moreappointment around 2:30 PM on a weekday and they had a study stream of takeout & delivery workers going in and out. I actually wanted their combo ($12) taco platter (3 tacos, Rice, Refried beans), but the choices for the tacos were chicken, pork, beef. The other combo that looked interesting was a beef taco, chicken fajita, and something called a sincronizada (ham & cheese pressed between 2 taco shells), & rice & beans. But their iPad system didn't have that (even though the paper menus did). I probably could've just ordered it with the cashier. I got ($13 Total) two tacos, beef tongue & al pastor ($4.50 each) & a side of rice ($3). The portions were very generous, and the first few bites things tasted good but a few more and I noticed that everything lacked flavor. The beef tongue was the best item, there was a salty sear on one side, but the pieces weren't as tender as other restaurants'. Maybe it was frozen and he didn't have time to defrost it? The al Pastor was chopped up meat bits with NO flavor. The pineapple and onions were nicely, finely chopped, but I didn't even finish half of these tacos. The rice had peas, corn, carrots, and string beans & big fluffy grains. At first it was tasty, with maybe hints of bullion and tomatoes; but after a few bites, it started reminding me of cafeteria rice & had a bit too much oil. It seems like a popular place, a mom and her kid came in for tacos after school, local workers and contractors who seem to know the staff and delivery guys, came in for their lunch. Maybe I didn't order the right items, or these type of tacos are more popular on the weekend. I also wonder that since I'm not a local or of the background, there isn't as much care put into my food. One contractor yelled "China! [cheena!]" to the staff as he walked in. Was I supposed to respond "Mexicanos!" LOLZ. I hope they do well though they seem like a neighborhood staple.

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.

The birria quesadilla is so good! It goes well with the consommé as well. The associate at Pancho…read moreBirria Taco was helpful and explained to me that the consommé compliments the birria dish. The decor at the eatery is simple and artsy as there are minimalistic paintings mounted around a minimalistic looking clock with golden hands at the utensil station. Clean and colorful ambiance overall. A good place to try birria dishes ranging from tacos, tostadas, quesadillas, fries, dumplings and noodle. They even have scallion pancake with beef broth on the menu!

I had bookedmarked Nenes Taqueria in Astoria without knowing it had a Brooklyn location as well…read more Based on reviews, I knew I had to try their Birria so we opted for the Birria Deluxe, which came with a taco, a empanada, a mulita, and consume. We also ordered a lengua and adobada taco to sample as well as a horchata. There was plenty of seating in the outdoor/ indoor area in the back of the restaurant. Everything came out quickly and was super fresh. We loved that there was a toppings bar for sauces, onions, pico de gallo, and radish. My favorite was the Birria mulita, which was super crispy and flavorful. It was of course the messiest to eat but it was worth it. The Birria empanada was super unique and crunchy. I enjoyed dipping this into the consume a lot. The tacos were also quite good as we loaded them up with sauces. Lastly the horchata was creamy, refreshing, and delicious. I had an amazing meal at Nenes Taqueria and would love to come back if I'm in the area.

I ordered the asada and lengua tacos. I wished the guacamole sauce was thicker but the green sauce was a great complement to the tacos. The lengua taco was perfectly done (5/5) but the asada was a bit dry. My friend ordered the chicken quesadilla and it was flavored really well. I would definitely come back either for a sit-down or take-out!

There is loud club music in the inside but not loud enough that you can't hear each other. Service (5/5): It was odd that they delayed seating us while they contemplated the extra table in the middle. I thought it was fine to leave the table, but they relocated the table to make space for us which was nice. Other than that, the ordering was quick and food timing was good. Loitering guests were asked to finish up and leave. (Understandable with the limited space they had) Food (3/5): Elote corn (2/5): A very lackluster elote on a cob which had the cream and sprinkled tajin seasoning. I which there was something more to it. The little sticks were a nice touch to keep the hands clean. Steak a la Mexicana (3/5): Mediocre taste with a lightly marinated steak (not much flavor) and a bit tough chew. Comes with a side of plain black beans and Mexican rice. Chorizo quesadilla (5/5): The inside flavor and sauce had a wonderful taste. The tortilla is homemade and it was soft and delicious. The cream and cheese on top provided another flavor burst. A couple of slices of carrot as a garnish.
