The sauce is a sour cream base which I wasn't expecting. Wish I had more. The birria seafood was so good! Never had it before but it tasted like eating a seafood boil, and boy do I love that! Their drinks were really good too I got their marg and service was super nice. The server asked if we wanted the game in English but we wanted it in Spanish duh! Super sweet of him to ask since we don't speak Spanish.

Everything was flavorful and beautifully presented. My only criticism would be that the ceviche was very lime forward and was overwhelming for my taste. There was a DJ there playing a nice mix of music. The DJ gave the restaurant a party vibe which is nice but it was pretty loud and made it a little difficult to have a conversation. Otherwise everything was wonderful and I would definitely come back!

I thought they would have a DJ, some brunch spots usually do but I heard the DJ doesn't come until 5pm. They did play some throwback Spanish music the entire time. The family loved it. My portion was smaller than I thought it would be but it was still tasty. The margarita pitchers were strong just and FYI lol. Will return at a later time for dinner & Dj vibes. :)

This place is definitely better than the name might imply. The food, service, and vibes are all…read moreabove average. The only downside is that the price is also, shall we say, Manhattanized? 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.

I'm sure I have had Colombian food before, but it has been quite a while and Barriles was my first…read moreauthentic "newer" Colombian place to try. Came here for a little small belated birthday dinner for a friend and we had a very nice time. We each just had a dish since we knew the portions are BIG. The menu is extensive and there was a lot to choose from. They even offer some Mexican and Italian dish options. I had the Grilled Skirt Steak (Monterey), which was SO BIG I had leftover for lunch the next day. :) the meat was pretty tender and juicy. The dish came with tostones (big) and rice. We were also served salads to start. What stands out a lot is the amazing service here. They are so polite, friendly, patient and helpful. The restaurant definitely seemed staffed properly which I suppose was a good thing because as the night progressed, the place filled up (for a Thursday night). My friends had the salmon and the Chicken Franchise. I took off just one star because they ended up charging my friends twice (but rectified the mistake), hopefully her funds will sort out. They also charge extra if you want to make any side substitutions... which isn't kind of crappy. The place is also beautifully decorated and spacious. Will def be back very soon! Next time we'll partake in an adult beverage maybe :)

This has been my spot for many years for happy hours, dinner and to watch soccer games…read more It is a large restaurant so you can usually find a spot at the bar or at a table. But when there are big soccer events, it can get very packed. I especially like their frozen passion fruit margarita because it is sweet and strong with a tajin rim. All of their food is delicious, especially their picada which comes with a variety of meat; chicken, chicharrón, sausage and potato. The chicharrón is always crunchy and all the dipping sauces pair so well with everything in the picada. The vibe inside the restaurant is always very fun with good music playing in the background and the bar always has very friendly staff. If you are ever in the Jackson heights area, you should give them a try.

After finding out that this place opened not too long ago, we decided to dine in for dinner on a Tuesday evening. Upon entering, we were face to face with an artificial Japanese cherry blossom tree embedded to the wall, which was almost mesmerizing. The staff welcomed up and presented their brunch and dinner menus to choose from despite it being almost 7 pm. They had a drink menu that boasted of refreshing flavors. My partner got a Japanese cirtrus which he said was outstanding. I ordered the breakfast burger ($17) which came with bacon and eggs, a side of potatoes and salad. The burger was well seasoned and came medium as I requested. The potatoes were crisp and paired well with the burger. The portion size was very generous that I brought half of it home for later. My partner got the Paradillada steak strips ($26) which he devoured with his mashed potatoes. He described the chimichurri as the start of the dish, which was decadent and flavorful to coat the tender cuts of beef. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant if you're looking to have a family outing, or a casual date night. The prices are very reasonable, and the place is very welcoming!

I discovered this spot, despite living here basically my entire life, while doing a bar crawl and…read morecraving something at 1 in the morning. Walking in, immediately, the atmosphere was lively and everyone seemed to be having a good night with drinks and karaoke. This spot seems to have karaoke by their bar section quite a bit at night, especially on the weekends. Although a slight language barrier, our waitress was an absolute doll and she made such a great effort trying to understand our minimal spanish. She was super sweet and was checking on us regularly. The drinks came out pretty immediately, though I will say they are a bit heavy handed with the alcohol. Wasn't a big fan of the piña colada, as it tasted like only rum and no actual pineapple/coconut, but the other drinks looked pretty interesting. The actual food though, oh my goodness. It was genuinely so amazing that I came back the next day to have it again for lunch. The fish tacos are to die for. The tilapia is nice and soft on the inside, and crispy on the outside. Despite so many fried items, nothing felt too greasy and that's what really tied it together. The flavors in the items are impeccable, and I highly recommend anyone to go here. They're open pretty late on the weekends so definitely grab a bite before heading home.

I never felt this stretch of Roosevelt was the most vibrant, but it's gotten a little brighter…read morethanks to La Casa de Julia. The food is on par with what one would expect in this part of NYC, but it is one of the more versatile Mexican establishments in this part of Woodside. Once past the bright lights, the restaurant is deceivingly spacious with a bar and plenty of tables. The staff primarily speaks in Spanish and the crowd as usually locals from the neighborhood. Prices are somewhere in the middle. From a food perspective, it's solid. Their tacos are on par with most of the restaurants in the vicinity. It's neither outstanding nor terrible but they are the perfect complement to their variety of drinks from micheladas to margaritas. The place is a very different experience for people who are coming to party, watch soccer, or enjoy with a group. Even though I think their Tex-Mex nachos are a near abomination, It actually works quite well when paired with any of their drinks. Their enchiladas are poblano appropriate, with a decent portion of refried beans and rice. Their menu is actually quite vast with plenty of Mexican classics. Their guacamole appetizer has nice chunks of avocado and good seasoning. Finish it all with some of their signature churros and life isn't so bad. They have free delivery and this place is both empty and busy all within the same night. If there's a good futbol match on and the drinks are flowing, I would be keen to order a spread out here and leave having had a good time. Julia's house is definitely fun if one makes the most of it.
