    See this why those tic toc and IG reviews be pissing me off...they over hype everything. I have learned real reviews are here on YELP. So I went here with a friend for lunch of course because of the hype. I personally was not impressed. I personally do not have an issue with the interior because it is a "chinos" in the BX. I personally did not care how serivice would be because again its a "chinos" in the Bx. However the customer was very good but did not go looking for it. The food was simply ok. My friend got pepper steak that was very salty. And I did a hood classic; fried chicken wings and house friend rice. My chicken taste like any other chicken from a local chinos. But the rice was really good. I also found to be a little over priced. 2 meals with tip was $50, House fried rice with chicken wings and pork fried rice with pepper steak with a can coke and can ginger ale. I would go back for rice alone but nothing to go out my way for.

    The food was amazing. I ordered the shrimp with lobster sauce, pork fried rice, egg roll and pork chops. All the food was oh so tasty . The food taste so special. I love the atmosphere. Tables where you can sit and a counter space. Nice and friendly staff. Low conversations being had . It was a chill vibe. Nice variety of food. A fresh lobster tank there also. Which is cool. I will gladly be back to try other food options.

    Every trip back home requires a visit to old faithful El Pabellon. This restaurant has been here for over 30 years. Same place, same family owned. They serve the absolute, in our humble opinion, the best house special lo mein we've ever tasted. I mean this thing is sooo good. Flavorful, smoky, chock full of big chunks of chicken, steak and cooked just right shrimp. The large is large, no small portions here. The place looks the same. Big seating area. And take heed, CASH ONLY. Before, if you forgot, you had to dip across the street to the bank but there is now an ATM. The prices have gone up, but gradual not crazy. Small $12 and Large $21. When I was here in June 2024, it was $20. Parking is metered. Double park at your own risk.

    I ordered on phone & picked up order. Order was ready when I arrived. Reminder, cash only. Shrimp fried rice was great.

    Chicken and broccoli with chicken fry rice
    Erickson R.

    Authentic old school Chinese food with Latin flavors, i bought a chicken and broccoli with chicken fry rice and 4 chicken wings, the flavor was amazing. I will recommend to give them a try. The service was cool, the dudes behind the counter greeted me, took my order and within 10/15 mins my food was out. The style of the restaurant was cool, they had good seating and a live tank with lobster, what Chinese spit you know had that, but again it's Latin infuse, so i guess. Overall the food was good, the place was an old school gem, if I had to recommend anything to the owners, a little renovation goes a long way, may increase business.

    Steak was perfect

    Old school Cuban Chinese as good as it was 10 years ago. Every meal here is awesome and top three dishes for me are 1. Bistec palomilla with house fried rice 2. Stuffed clams are insane 3. Wow to the Cuban coffee. Other recommendations. The pork chops Shrimp Lo mein Stuffed lobster

    Steak,shrimp fried rice, plantano maduros (fried sweet plantains)& salad

    Food is always on point! I ordered a #8 beef steak(hold the onions) w/ shrimp fried rice(instead of the pork it comes w/.Ambiance is family-oriented. I love the toasted bread & butter they give before the food. Service is ok. Those waiters have been working in this restaurant for 20+ years. It's kind of hard getting a smile out of them. Will be back for the food of course!!

    Been coming here for years since I was a kid at their other location that closed down by Morrison Av. Now that I've moved to CT, it's always a treat to come here now and then. The staff here speak multiple languages. Their wooden bowls generates feelings of nostalgia. I always get the steak and onions with rice and plátano maduros (sweet plantains). No other fusion spot can compare!

    I've only gone to Chinese Spanish restaurants in Queens and Brooklyn and this location is definitely on my recommended list! I loved the food and the service was superb! The waiters were fast and friendly. One thing I didn't really like was the fact that it's cash only & they don't serve cocktails/frozen drinks like other Chinese Spanish restaurants that I've gone to in Queens & BK. We were served in good timing and my boyfriend and stepson loved their ice tea! I def liked how the food wasn't greasy and filled me up! I will definitely be coming back here. I also was starving so the food tasted amazing! The ambiance and atmosphere is pretty chill. You can calmly eat your meal and drink without anyone bothering you. Just know that you will be treated well and served good food!

Being…read morefrom California, I definitely missed the Mexican food scene, so I wanted to try Taqueria Tlaxcalli to taste a bite of home. When we entered, we were greeted with kind smiles from the ladies and they welcomed us to sit at any free table. Inside has lots of decor with ample seating. We sat and a server grabbed us menus. We got a carnitas burrito, grilled cactus side, horchata, and strawberry limeade (per her recommendation). Everything came so fast, and they even split the burrito for us! Oh my god, everything was so good. This has to be one of the BEST burritos I have ever had, comparable to the ones in San Diego. I love carnitas, and they do it so well here. It was tender, flavorful, just the perfect amount of sauce and seasoning! And the horchata was the best I have ever had too! The strawberry limeade was refreshing, and the grilled cactus was good! It was my first time trying it and it reminded me of aloe vera/okra texture. I had such a great time, such a great experience, I will definitely be back!

I usually go to the Westchester Square spot as it's the location closest to my parents, but I've also been to their restaurant in Kingsbridge and (most recently) this one on Westchester Ave. The standard items one would expect to find at a Mexican restaurant are on EP's menu. What makes them stand out for me though, is the vast selection they have within each menu section and the quality of they food they serve. My usual go-tos are their burritos and tacos - they offer a variety of proteins to complement and they're always delicious. Outside of that, their soups are great as well as their nachos. I've only eaten in-house a few times; my standard is takeout and it's always ready by the promise time. Overall, Estrellita is a resounding yes for me; they are one of the best examples of quality and consistency, and I would always recommend them for good Mexican food in the Bronx.
