“I ordered the Tacos De Birria (Lamb), iced coffee, the walnut chocolate brownie and pico de gallo and chips twice through Uber Eats this week. A very nice young lady called to let me know there weren't any more brownies left for my second order and offered a nice substitute. Those brownies sell out really fast because they're so delicious. The Tacos De Birria are SO delicious!!“
“My wife and as New Mexican natives have searched far and wide on our travels for “real New Mexican food”. Santa Fe BK is unquestionably the best we have had. John and Melissa, the owners did their research and it shows in the food. The place itself is charming, especially the outdoor patio with “Betty” the apple tree anchoring it. Owners were very friendly and knowledgeable. Their Chimayo red and Hatch green chiles (the heart of New Mexican cooking) were excellent. We’ll definitely be back on our next NY trip.“
“What a pleasant surprise! Stopped by on a whim. Attentive service and easily the Birria de res (con queso Oaxaca ?) I’ve had in NYC! Their café de olla is tasty with cinnamon and other warm spices. Def check this spot out if you’re in the area!“
“This is a 2 visit review. Both times the food was great. I’d recommend the loaded fries and the fish tacos. They were both delicious. The margaritas are pretty good also, slightly on the sweeter side but still worth a try (I like mine more tart). The bartender accidentally gave us chicken nachos & to accommodate, brought us a side of the steak to put on top. The staff was very welcoming & kind even before the mixup. It seemed to just be 2 people working the floor but they did a great job even with a full bar of customersKid-friendliness: There’s a kid menu“
“This place is a wonderful rooftop bar! ? The Freehold Rooftop inside the Pod 39 Hotel ? offers great views of NYC ? and serves a nice selection of drinks and cocktails! ? Definitely get their Apple Cider Bourbon Cocktail!? The place is beautifully decorated ?️ and the ambience ? is fantastic! The staff ?? is super friendly and the service is quick. ⏲️ I wish I came here earlier and more often!“
“First of all I gotta mention how brilliant chef Edger is! His passion for cooking & improvising with new food is respectable! His eyes lights up everytime he gets to talk about his creations , loved that! He was kind enough to make mock-tails for me who doesn’t drink alcohol ! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.The staff were very kind, respectful & helpful! They worked hard from the start to finish. Chef has a good team ! Thank you guys for everything!I am a good lover, travel real far from my island just to try new food. It’s a commitment & lots of hard work. I am happy I was able to come here after getting off from work. And let me tell you it was all worth it, because every item was delicious. Even tho most of the items I have never had but I enjoyed them. So trying something totally new & enjoying it says a lot about the food!I got to try 3 different Mock-tails & I actually enjoyed all of them. Loved the Guacamole the most! Even in my head I was already making new recipes with guacamole lol.First time trying oysters & I liked it. Now I am not afraid to try it again lol! Also tried octopus for the first time & I loved it. I am so glad I was able to come, loved every minute of it.Met some new beautiful faces, tried to make some new friends. End of the day it was a wonderful event . Btw, the restaurant itself is beautiful, not too big. Small, cozy & cute little spot . Thank you Cena for the invite…❤️“
“Yummy Tamales!!I had the Adobo tamal and Raja Pollo tamal. I also had champurrado, but I would not recommend it because it taste like straight up flour and water with a pinch of chocolate in which you do not taste (please improve the recipe). I say this with much love ?“
“My friends and I were around the neighborhood and wanted to get something to eat with some drinks. We then found this spot and we are glad we did! Staff were so welcoming and helpful with the food and drink choices. I wanted to try a new tequila drink and the bar tender Cesar took his time with showing me the best bottles and told me all about each. Henry was very attending and made sure we were having a great time. Definitely recommend!“
“I'm obsessed with Lunera! This Colombian-Mexican gem in Astoria has stolen my heart and taste buds. Their sangria is hands-down my favorite - a perfect blend of fruity and tangy. But honestly, everything on the menu is a must-try! From the mouthwatering churrasco (their specialty, and for good reason!) to the flavorful empanadas and paella , every dish is a masterpiece. The owners are often present, warmly greeting customers and making everyone feel like family. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the service is top-notch. If I had to choose just one favorite, it'd be the churrasco - but honestly, I dream about everything on their menu! Five stars and a permanent spot on my favorite restaurants list. ?? Lunera, you have my heart (and taste buds) forever!“
“Unfortunately I am attempting to finish this review in 2024, long after visiting this establishment so I do not recall my visit here besides giving it 5/5 stars. So in my very trusted book of ratings, I absolutely enjoyed this spot and the food was amazing. So I'll be back and do a better job reviewing next time.“
“I came here for a quick lunch and had one of the best breakfast burritos I've found in Brooklyn! The ingredients and produce are so fresh and priced super well. Service was fast, friendly, and food was great. Will become a neighborhood staple for us for sure!“
“It was a beautiful spring day as I was welcomed into the bar area which is fairly large. Many people were there due to st Patrick’s day. The bartender greeted me and I was fortunate enough to meet the owner through a buddy of mine. The beer was nice and cold and the people were friendly. Found a table outside with two young ladies and my bud. We shared frozen margaritas and then they put 90s hip hop and r&b.. my favorite. The sun was setting so we had to go. Highly recommend for a chill night out, will definitely try the food next time!“
“Let me start by saying the atmosphere is great, I love the decor. Food is delicious, great drinks and i enjoy the service. Great spot to enjoy with your couple or with friends. Definitely, I will be back.Parking: Very busy street, and it is somewhat difficult to find parking, but you will find one.“
“The food was tasty, beef in beef quesadilla was a bit tough but other than that the food was overall good. Quantity was larger than I thought. The restaurant is casual and nothing fancy but the server was really sweet and I enjoyed the experience.“
“Omg…so good. Forgot to take pics because everything looked so delicious. Came in to dine-in but ended up getting takeout and we had the best experience. The host/server Kayla is so sweet and the food and drinks were quick. The margs are strong & not too sweet, we got strawberry, kiwi strawberry, mandarin, and blood orange to drink. All yummy! You 100% must get the street corn (we’ll come here weekly for this and margaritas), and the chicken tinga nachos were amazing too. Super flavorful and loaded! This is definitely a new go-to spot for us“
“The store has minimal indoor seating but the food is really good. It's more of a take-out spot. We ordered 3 tacos for taco Tuesdays. We got mushroom al pastor, carnitas, and bistec and chorizo. The bistec and chorizo has such a good flavor but the meat was SO tough. The mushroom al pastor was my favorite of them all. They do have outdoor seating just not indoor.“

“La Casa de Frida emerges as a stellar happy hour destination, perfect for those seeking a swift libation. Boasting two distinct happy hour specials--running from 12 to 5 and another from 5 to 7--the spot delivers not only variety but also affordability.While the drink specials shine, the culinary offerings fall short of the happy hour pricing ethos, presenting full-priced wings, quesadillas, and tacos. Despite this culinary mismatch, the prospect of returning solely for the libations remains alluring. La Casa de Frida excels in crafting drinks that tantalize the taste buds, promising a delightful journey to tipsiness by the third round.Noteworthy is the commendable service; during our visit, my companion and I decided to explore a special $30 shot of Patron Alto, intrigued by its novelty. To our surprise, the establishment went above and beyond by generously gifting us another expensive shot on the house, acknowledging our curiosity and enhancing our overall experience. This gesture adds an extra layer of satisfaction to the visit, creating a positive memory that encourages a return for both the drinks and the exceptional service.“
