Don't miss Long Island City's top Mexican restaurants, as recommended by Restaurantji.
“Stopped by because I always pass here! The tacos were good and came with a lot of meat. They added cilantro and onions. Next time I'll probably add cheese and sour cream. They do not serve guacamole. They have a lot of Latin ingredients for sale. If you need specific ingredients for the perfect salsa or Mexican dish you can find it here. The prices are inexpensive and great for a quick lunch or dinner. It's more of a deli not a restaurant!“
“I ordered at the counter which saves a forced $2 tip if ordered on their website. Paid $12 cash. I ordered the spicy pork burrito which was generously stuffed. The pork was juicy, seasoned superbly, and blended well with their rice. It came with a small side of about 6 fresh homemade tortilla chips and a small red sauce. I thought it was better than Chipotle.“
“Clean and comfortable place to stay. In room bathroom ? and shower. Toilet in separate room and shower in separate room. Door separating beds and toilet and shower, with sink. Lockers below each bed. Early check in is allowed. Baggage storage is allowed. Very nice staff. About five minutes to subway and bus stop.“
“Mostly fine or good experiences. The workers there work really hard and get your order to you really fast during the lunch rush. They run out of vinaigrette often and have stingy portions during lunch rush--fyi for the vinaigrette fans. Avoid going at the end of the “
“Truly the best Mexican food I’ve had in the city so far. I didn’t know what to expect but the meats and flavor profiles were so developed. We had the tacos, bone marrow, Short rib, bass entree, scallops appetizer, and the rice pudding. Meat was juicy and smoked. Scallops were the softest most pure flavor I’ve had in a while and the spice completely opened up my palate. The bass with its accompanied salad was extremely intricate and well thought out to connect the two. Highly HIGHLY recommend Claro. Definitely coming back to explore the mezcal side of the menu.“
“This place has the most wonderful atmosphere and is truly one of the best Mexican restaurants that we have ever tried! Our server, John, was incredible and made so many great recommendations that made our meal that much more amazing! Highly recommend if you are in the area.“
“Jonnie was our server and amazing! I got 2 tacos and an empanada. The flavors are all outstanding and the seafood is very fresh. They also have homemade salsas which are unique and pack a punch. Definitely a place to come to whether or not you’re “
“I stopped by for drinks around 7pm on a Saturday with some friends. Thankfully there was a table available and we were seated right away. Bosco's has an extensive drink menu, and happy hour if you go during certain times on weekdays. The drinks were average NY prices, and were very good. I got the Sam Said So, while my friend got a Negroni. Both were very good! The service was great, and the decor was fun.“
“Really good carne asada tacos (5/5), brisket tacos (4.5/5)! The carne asada in the tacos was incredible - moist, flavorful, and very umami packed without being chewy. Really good. The brisket was great they have you a LOT for the filling. The mile enchiladas were okay (4/5) - the mole sauce was good but the chicken inside was very chewy.“
