I am looking forward to trying other items on the menu.

For food, my group stuck with the beef, opting for the birria and NY strip steak tacos. Both were very tasty, and made even better with the spicy housemade salsas. The drinks may have been the highlight. I recommend the Volcan in particular. It's a very cessionable and refreshing summery mezcal drink, that could charm even the non-mezcal crowd. I also appreciated that they made a special tiny cheese quesadilla for my one-year old. The bill was high enough that it made me double check the math, and I wish that the taco dishes came with some type of side for $20+ a pop, but overall, Ayy Chihuahua is good enough that I'd come back again, at least for another round of drinks.

Mexican (and Tex-Mex) isn't an option that Queens lacks, but about a year ago the Chilaquiles on…read morethe menu put El Ranchero on my radar. Surprisingly, it is a dish that is hard to find in the Flushing/Fresh Meadows area especially in a sit down, comfortable restaurant. The Chilaquiles was a nice little plate of deliciousness - I loved the tangy green salsa soaked bed of tortilla with nicely fried over easy eggs (they way I ordered it). A fan of avocado, tomato and onions top the dish as well - it comes with a side of rice and beans. I recently returned when I was in the mood for enchiladas - they have combo option with beef, chicken and cheese. I ordered them divorced style with both red and green salsa. It comes blanketed with a shredded lettuce salad with tomato, onions and avocado. Rice and beans round out the dish. A couple of other dishes I tasted were the eggs with chorizo and the chimichanga - both were very good. I love their house salsas both a dark red and green one. They bring out tortilla chips with a thick salsa that is tomato-ey sweet. They have a full bar if you are so inclined and the service is very good here.

Not fluent in English, but very friendly service. They have an extensive menu! They give complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa is a sweet tomato-y salsa and the chips are crisp. The Chimichanga with Cecina (Salted Beef) was stuffed! Crisp fried exterior, covered in flavorful red (tomato-y) and green (herb-y) sauces. The cecina is perfectly salted. I enjoyed the guac and chips (same as the complimentary chips) and pico on the side added freshness. They also have a house red and green sauce, which have a good kick and flavor to them. The Pineapple Juice is the right amount of sweetness and tart. I like that there's no ice so it's a full glass of juice! Overall a neat local spot to hit up for good food and friendly service (and a full bar!).

Finally I got to go with an old friend who I had a bad falling out with, so this meal was more important than just getting fed. Our whole relationship was on the line. There's no better way to start a painful reunion than to get some random (included) starter snack, accompanied by three unique sauces, and two coconut margaritas. Immediately upon tasting the margaritas, we knew our friendship would make it out of the meal. For appetizers, we got today's special - Tuna Ceviche - that was genuinely a blast of flavors. All I remember is there's a yuzu sauce amongst other ingredients. The dish was tiny but tasted incredible. We also got the Ensalada de Betabel con Jicama, another fabulous dish full of beets and jicama, and their guacamole. Now I thought the guacamole was a little bland, but it was definitely fresh. For entrees, we split the Mole de Piaxtla and the Tacos de Carne Asada. Flavorwise, I was a little disappointed in both. The meat in the tacos was incredible, but as a dish it felt incomplete. I did really enjoy the Mole but honestly I never gravitate towards it so even if it was A+ I don't think I'd really appreciate it. That being said, I have had better (in CDMX). Before we dug in to the entrees, we dug into the truth of our distance and really acknowledged how special it was to come over food like this. Now, we were so full at this point that even though everything tasted good nothing tasted good. We also were distracted by someone dressed up as the michelin man coming in and vlogging the restaurant. We ate as much as we could and the service gave us a little break to continue chatting. Upon their return, we ordered two more margaritas and a tres leches. Again, the margaritas were fire and the tres leches was a perfect end to the meal. A beautiful meal, beautiful restaurant, great drinks, and the preservation of a long time friendship. Does it get better than this?

This is Mexican food with a twist. There is all your favorites here and then some. After the New York Times paid a visit here a few months back, the reputation of this little restaurant in Sunnyside takes on a new meaning to flavor. I got three items, all of which had varying degrees of success. The main item I wanted to try was their famed Fried Chicken Cemita, or a Mexican sandwich layered with just about everything the kitchen sink throws at you. Considering I live where Doña Zita roams as the king of the Cemita, this has big shoes to fill. After taking a bite, and making one big mess, I knew I made the right choice. So much flavor and texture going on that I could not figure out how to attack the next few bites. My only criticism is that it is a little on the small side, and I was still hungry after eating one. I had to order something else. That is when I went full San Diego on this restaurant and got a fish and a shrimp taco. The fish taco is great but you cannot eat the fish with the taco. Otherwise it falls apart. The other flavors are there but it should be as one happy family, not two separate entities. That is how I felt eating this. Unfortunately you order individually with these it can get pricey quickly. The shrimp taco has the same criticisms. Like the fish tacos, these are also ordered individually. I like that the shrimp is succulent and there are three large shrimp in the taco, but this is a taco, not a Po Boy. I should not have shrimp spilling out the shell for me to pick later. It should be one harmonious flavor packed into a shell. I did not get that here. San Diego, you are safe for now as having the best fish tacos. In another review, I mentioned that New York is not known for Mexican food. A good one is a big fish in a little pond. I will be back here to try more food items here, as my selection for good Mexican food in New York is pretty limited. As long as I do not end up in one of the nearby cemeteries first.
