I've been coming to this place with my family and friends for YEARS. Whether it be special occasions or just a casual get together, it's a great spot to dine at. Their aguas frescas taste great and the food never disappoints. Huge fan of their quinoa poblano bowl, of course their other dishes are just as savory. I've had my debatable experiences here (service wise) which is why I'm giving it 4 stars. Overall, a great place with authentic Mexican flavors! :D read more

This has become a to go to spot for my friend and I . We tend to find our way here when we may need a lunchtime cocktail. I personally hands down love their mojitos. I go for the mojitos alone. While I have not tried many things on the menú what I did makes me want to try more. Being that I have also gone early in the day its not very busy inside however their lunch take out crowd and delivery is insane. Waitstaff is always on point and welcoming. read more

Estrellita Poblana is a Bronx institution. There are several of them throughout the borough, but no matter which one you go to they serve up the same consistently good Mexican fare. 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. read more

The restaurant is very welcoming and beautifully decorated. We tried the Horchata(MUST ORDER IT WAS GREAT), Agua de jamaica, chimichanga, birria tacos, and enchiladas en mole. Literally everything was delicious and I cannot wait to go back!! Are we just so provided in good service. Our bill came up to around $70 for three meals and three nonalcoholic drinks. read more

Good food always fresh I came specifically looking for their sweet tamales which are amazing but ended up ordering tacos. I had the fish tacos which came with a side of rice and beans so it's perfect if you're hungry. Great portion totally worth trying. I would say the fish was a little over cooked in my opinion but well seasoned. It wasn't like a fried fillet it was more like thin strips of fried fish which could have been why it was over cooked. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable they were fast and super kind. They kept checking up on us making sure everything was ok and to see if we needed anything. Music playing in the background made eating there enjoyable as well. The place is well kept and clean. Good for friends family or a simple date night. read more

Authentic Mexican feel, with delicious food. I have probably eaten here 100 times in the last 2 years. Great variety the drinks the food you just cant go wrong and their kitchen is open nice and late. Its in walking distance from my house, but if you are driving it can be a little hard to find parking. read more

I had a terrible experience here. The server took my drink order but never delivered it, as she appeared focused on making drinks at the bar for another table. I later asked a different server for my drinks and was told they would be out in two minutes. After waiting approximately ten more minutes, I asked again, but there was difficulty with communication and my request was not understood as the staff does not speak English. I ordered three Mexican Coca Colas. After about forty five minutes, the drinks finally arrived, but only two were brought out of the three. Everyone else at the table had already received their drinks, and our appetizers had arrived while I was still waiting on the drinks. I was extremely thirsty by that point. Considering the drinks only needed to be taken from the refrigerator, the delay was frustrating. When they did arrive, they were not even cold. Communication among the staff seemed to be an ongoing issue, which contributed significantly to the poor service. The food also fell short of expectations. I ordered shrimp tacos, which were much better in the past. This time, they were bland and not worth the price. There are several other nearby restaurants that offer better quality tacos at a lower cost. To make matters worse, an automatic gratuity was included on the bill despite the lack of adequate service. read more

I like ordering Mexican food from here! Never gone in person to this location but I usually order from ubereats or Grubhub from here. I decided to try their birria tacos with no cheese and unfortunately they weren't that good and my tortillas were soggy and fell apart quickly. Next time I will stick with the chicken or steak quesadillas with their yummy yellow rice and black beans! My boyfriend really likes their steak tostadas except for the second one being smushed, still tasted good. read more

It's a little bit hard to find parkings but if you don't drive it is perfect. It's an intimate place and the foods are authentic. The portion is large as I don't need to eat dinner anymore if I go there for lunch. The foods are little salty so I would ask for no salts if I go next time. read more

Service was mid at best but food was good. The guacamole is good. Dont order the sangria its not very good but the margaritas are good

Amazing Food and Excellent Service. Note that it is a family restaurant so you will have children in your vicinity. read more

The complimentary chips and homemade salsa was the best out of everything. Salsa had little bit of cilantro and friend thinks little spicy. The tacos were fresh but nothing to write home about. Have had better street tacos. The bistec in the sizzling platter was okay, not the steak meat I would have thought. It was flat, stringy beef that was shredded and a bit dry. Vegetables in the platter were a combination of tomatoes, green and red bell peppers , and onions. read more

Ordered takeout from here and the delivery was quick. Their tamales verdes and rojos are amazing! The burritos are really good, especially the Al pastor flavor, the maduros are good, the tacos are okay, the sopes are okay, the churros are horrible. So come for some food but not for all. Definitely not a place for dessert but a great place for a good meal. read more

Was strolling thru the area and just happened on to this place. Was it the greatest food No, did I get a burger from a Mexican restaurant, yes my fault. The food was fine, but since its not authentic food, I can't be overly critical. The service was great and after I left I forgot I left my hat behind and when I walked back in the handed it back to me, that was great of them. read more

Estrellita Poblana - Poblano Burrito Poblano/ Empanada - Mexican Near Me - Bronx, New York

Food was great quality and great portions. Service was great it was quick and friendly only downfall is once you are done I did feel like I was being rushed to get out. Additionally I asked for other sauce options and was only given ketchup as an option. I wanted tarter sauce or bbq and they did not have. Ambiance is very hip with Spanish music playing in the background and I saw families with children and couples having dinner. read more

Estrellita Poblana - Mexican Near Me - Bronx, New York

Estrellita serves authentic Mexican cuisine, reasonably priced, and a nice ambience for a place in the Bronx. Their guacamole is always fresh and perfectly flavored with warmed tortilla chips. We had grilled chicken with a side of Mexican rice and black beans and it was amazing. We also had shrimp tostadas which are tasty, the shrimp seasoned nicely and the toppings added a nice variety of decadent flavors. To top off the experience we had coconut mojitos which were on the stronger side (soooo good) and then tres leches for dessert. If you're ever in the Bronx, definitely a place to stop. read more

sobre la comida, los especiales son su especialidad. pide recomendaciones, ellos saben lo mejor del día. buen servicio y ambiente

Nice chill place. Good family environment. And on occasion, they have entertainment like mariachis. Very authentic feels very traditional.

For many years since the beginning of the restaurant, I have been a customer almost every day. It is getting worse. The service and the attitude they show to customers when there is a complaint. Today, Valentine's Day, I called to order food and they told me that because it was a special day, the prices of the regular menu would go up without giving me any explanation. For me, this is blatant robbery. What kind of business does this to its customers who have been supporting their business for a long time? read more

the only thing good about my experience was the gaucamole, the service was absolutely horrible. the worst service I have ever received. I work in this industry and being able to accommodate takes restaurants a long way. I will never return. don't waste your time. read more

TL; DR: This is truly some of the BEST Mexican food I have ever had. I've been here twice in the past two months and already plotting my return. My boyfriend and I stumbled on this restaurant on during COVID, on a random Monday, after searching for a restaurant that was open at 10pm. We were so pleasantly surprised to be guided into the back patio that was beautifully lit with string lights to set an ambiance that didn't at all feel like the Bronx! ...As if that wasn't good enough, there was a super talented Mariachi band playing (with masks and all!) serenading different tables. It's safe to say the tone was set even before our food arrived -- but that did not disappoint either! Elizabeth was our waitress and truly a GEM!! The queso fundido with peppers was literally the stuff that dreams are made of and so were the burrito, fajitas, and chimichangas/burritos we had on both occasion. Most importantly, the margaritas were strong and DELICIOUS! I mixed passion fruit with mango and it was perfection. Definitely a great option for lots of delicious food and bang for your buck. The icing on the cake is being able to support local businesses. Can't wait to return! read more

Service was so bad, our waiter wouldn't take our order for an hour and we couldn't even finish ordering drinks. If you're planning to have a big dinner with family do not go to this place. The Food wasn't good, why is the rice kind of hard .. but the drinks however were really strong. I suggest getting a pitcher of margaritas if you're with a lot of people. 2 pitchers was enough for 7 of us read more

The food and drinks were incredible, and service was prompt but the server reached over my food multiple times which was annoying. The ambiance was nice, but sardine type. Don't sit on the rail seats -- People waiting to be seated had their heads close to my food and drinks. Though unintentional it was still an issue. FYI: Most of the servers don't speak English. Overall -- Menu selection 9, Pricing 7, Food 10, Portions 7+, Drinks 8 (use less ice), Ambiance 7, Music 7, Servers 7, Bathrooms 7, Parking 6, very popular spot call ahead to check on wait, need to speak some Spanish though. Even with all of my American culture complaints, I'm definitely going back read more

You would not walk out of here hungry. The food here is so good the service excellente. The night we went they had music and we really enjoy ourselves. It's a nice family environment and waiter was very family friendly. She assisted us with the menu for my picky 12 year old nephew. Who by the way I enjoyed every bite. The food was not expensive for 3. It was good to find a place not far for my backyard that serves good food that does not break the wallet. read more

I got bones in my fish tacos almost choked to death and couldn't even get a refund without a picture on Uber eats.

I was so joyful to enter to eat with my family because we love eating from this establishment unfortunately my lil niece does not like Mexican so we bought her a happy meal to eat.i could not believe that I was told I can't enter the establishment with the happy meal I was shocked that they would refuse the money I was going to spend there over a happy meal. Won't ever eat there smh read more

First of all, I was able to order horchata, a non-alcoholic rice milk drink I enjoy and try to order when I'm at a Mexican establishment. And it was good! Complimentary tortilla chips and accompanying sauces were one of the better ones I've tried - loved that there's a caboodle of sauces similar to Thai cuisine :) Service is quick and the food is generously portioned and tasty without being over-seasoned or feeling heavy. I got a sizzling plate special with beef, shrimp, and chicken - delicious! Cute spacious setting with lots of families and groups - very festive and everyone (including me) was having a good time. read more

Impressive to say the least, love my borough but first to admit sometimes we have to travel to enjoy the better things in life. NOT ANY MORE!!! Clearly I'm late to the party, but better late then never. Nice atmosphere, Good service, Great prices, Wonderful Flavor, & Splendid spices... can't ask for more. Greeted at the door and seated right away, chips and salas with a kick to start (You had me at spice). Water brought to table with lime and drink orders taking. Mango Margaritas ordered with a small guacamole. The margarita was so refreshing and and they actually taste like mango. The guacamole was the one item that was good but could have used more flavor. Then ordered Fish tacos 3/ $13.95 and chicken tacos (individually, can't remember price). The fish tacos were simply amazing fresh, light, flaky, and flavorful. Very filling, was only able to eat two and took the third to go. The chicken tacos were order by my dining companion but they looked equally as tasty. The variety of hot sauces & pickled onions they provided for the table was the pis de resistance for a spicy girl ;-p I look forward to returning soon! read more
