    Chilaquiles verdes con chorizo y cebolla morada

    Los mejores chilaquiles que he probado en South Ozone, Queens! Este restauran de familia no nomas saben como cocinar comida sabrosa pero, el ambiente que crearon es uno muy amistoso y cómodo. Se puede sentir cuánto les importan de servir algo bueno. TIENES QUE TRATAR MEXICAN CAFE!! THE BEST CHILAQUILES I'VE TRIED IN SOUTH OZONE, QUEENS!! This family owned restaurant doesn't just cook amazing food, they have also created such a unique cozy vibe with a special attention to service. YOU MUST TRY Mexican Cafe!!

    This restaurant is closed, I placed an order and when I got there, it was closed. This restaurant should be removed from Yelp.

    Every dish was a hit, but the tacos truly stole the show. Packed with bold, authentic flavors, each…read morebite was perfectly balanced--tender, well-seasoned protein, fresh toppings, and warm tortillas that held everything together beautifully. You can tell real care goes into every taco that comes out of the kitchen. The tostones were fried to absolute perfection: golden and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seasoned just right. They were addictive on their own and even better paired with the accompanying sauces. The Spanish corn was a standout side--sweet, smoky, and creamy with just the right amount of seasoning. It added a comforting yet vibrant touch to the meal and complemented everything on the table. To top it all off, the ceviche was incredibly fresh and refreshing. Bright citrus flavors, tender seafood, and a perfect mix of herbs and spices made it light, zesty, and the ideal contrast to the richer dishes. Overall, this was an unforgettable meal filled with flavor, texture, and authenticity. From start to finish, everything was executed beautifully, leaving me already excited for my next visit.

    Went for taco Tuesday and I can say I've had better flavorful tastier tacos. Maybe it Iwas an off…read moreday or because it was busy being taco Tuesday but my steak and chicken taco left nothing to be desired. Missed the mark on the seasoning & sauce as they were bland! My partner ordered the battered chicken cutlet and guess what?? No seasoning at all! We took it home and made chicken parm. Extremely disappointed. We look forward to going out having a good time with food and drinks and this was horrible. Not our 1st time coming here but always want to give businesses a second chance. They failed. Margaritas you can't go wrong. Kudos to others that find their food exceptional and delicious. Margaritas were good. Can't go wrong there. Music was also good just hard to hear and communicate but that doesn't bother me. My opinion Have a great day

    This place is kind of a dive. I don't mean to say that you shouldn't eat here. On the contrary, the…read morefood was pretty good! But I went there today with some family and was hoping to find a Mexican restaurant that's comfortable for eating on the property. It's a really small space, I think there were 4 to 6 tables, and somehow I didn't get that from looking at the yelp reviews. For the food alone, the place is at least worth 4 stars. The Guacamole here is better than at many, many places... freshly made, has enough salt, cilantro... I'm a guac snob, and I liked this. The chips are a typical fried tortilla, and they were good. 3 of us had Quesadillas, one with mushrooms, one with beef, and the other with shrimp. We all liked them. One of us got a burrito, which was pretty hefty, and they liked what they got. Same person got a slice of Tres Leches and a slice of cheesecake and loved them. Service was fine. The place is on a corner with plenty of street parking around (on a Saturday afternoon). It's not much to look at but I would return with a smaller group.

    This place food is alright but not even worth the price first of off. I am pretty sure I got ripped…read moreoff with my mom bc they charged us 50 dollars for 2 order of taco, two drinks and chips with guacamole. But I look at the price online and it should of been around 28 or 30 BUT 50 IS INSANE. I used to come here all the time but after that never again. If you do come here I would HIGHLY SUGGEST THAT YOU CALCULATE WHAT YOU ARE GETTING FROM HERE!!

    I enjoy coming to Don Tequila it's a great neighborhood spot with great prices and deals…read more Service is always friendly and humble. The food is delish and well presented Drinks are yummy but could always use some more liquor. Parking in the area is tough and you don't need a reservation. There's indoor and outdoor seating And hookah :)

    I'm a big fan of Don Tequila, I've been a few times and I'm never disappointed!…read more Nowadays $14 drinks are pretty standard for the Forest Hills area, but the cocktails here are strong and tasty and worth the price. My favorites are the Tiki Colada, which is sweet with a red wine float, and the El Picosito, which is smoky and delicious. The margaritas and mojitos are cheaper and come in a few different flavors - these are also $7 during happy hour. The food is better than you'd expect for a bar. My absolute favorite is the grilled octopus appetizer, which is perfectly cooked every time. They have the classic Mexican staples (tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, fajitas), and the fish tacos and steak enchiladas are my favorite. The mango salmon and conchinita pibil are also great if you want something a little special. The tortilla soup with chicken is also way underrated, it's hearty, smoky, and perfectly seasoned - I've ordered this to go several times when I was home sick. Prices are pretty standard for Forest Hills, and the happy hour deals are a great value if you want the basics a little cheaper. The space itself is pretty big, and it accommodates large parties or smaller groups. The decor is cute, and there are several TVs always showing different games. As several other reviewers have mentioned, it does get pretty loud in here, especially when they have DJs there on the weekends. It's a matter of preference for sure, so to avoid it I usually go during the week or earlier on the weekends (as in I try to be out by 7pm on Friday-Sunday). This is perfect for me, as the regular playlist is pretty good and I usually catch the happy hour deals. The service is friendly and quick, especially the waitress with the short bob. HOWEVER - sometimes they add an 18% automatic gratuity and sometimes they don't. I've noticed that they typically add it if you're sitting at the bar or during busier times, but I'm not sure if there's a clear rule on this. I get it - they work hard here and the servers don't want to get stiffed by folks who have had a few drinks. It's clearly stated on the receipt, so it's not like they're trying to hide the charges. Either way, make sure that you double check the first receipt that they give you when they bring the check, since the final receipt (the standard one where you sign and tip) isn't itemized. Don Tequila is a reliable neighborhood spot, with great food and drinks. There are ways around most of the things that other reviewers have complained about. I'm happy to have them nearby, and I'll be back soon!
