Latin American Restaurants near Ridgewood

“We came here for brunch. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. Their playlist was awesome! Will definitely be coming back next time I’m in NY. Thanks!“

“Chicharron de pollo with the bone is SO GOOD. Well cooked and juicy. Beans are well seasoned and delicious. Love the rice. It reminds me of my abuela’s cooking. I usually don’t love Dominican take out (it’s usually not like the real thing in my opinion!!) but I’m glad I tried this place because it tastes very authentic! I’ve ordered from here 3-4 times on Uber Eats and will be ordering again!“

“Food was delicious and service was very good too. I usually only go out to eat at the Colombian restaurants I am accustom to go to but today I wanted to try this Ecuadorian restaurant and I’m happy to say that I was happily impressed that the food was exactly what I was expecting. Very good!“

“wanted to check out a speakeasy while in town and came across the newsroom on tiktok, due to their “stuff your own empanada experience”. nestled in a quiet area of queens, with easy access.lovely speakeasy ambiance with an aerialist performer & live vocal performances. the music they play is all jazzy covers of hit songs, so it fits the vibe so well.the empanadas and the filet mignon taquitos, were so tasteful and delicious.they give you a very decent amount of time to be there, in order to make room for more people. our server Alberto couldn’t have been kinder and more accommodating to our preferences & needs while there.would recommend this to anyone looking for a laid back speakeasy outside of the hustle and bustle of the major city or times square.“

“Most food is great (sandwiches, salteñas, drinks, desserts) but certain things (like mac and soup) need SALT. The rice pudding is quite sweet but good if you eat warm. The portion size is laughable though.... like 3.5-4oz. Prices are about $1-2 higher than you expect for each item. Fried chicken sandwich is starting to taste like it's fried in old oil. And on the BLP website delivery is free BUT you are still hit with a $3.50 "service fee", which is the restaurant's for using a delivery service. But on Grubhub+ the same service fee applies AND prices food is higher! So even with free delivery it will be higher. I ended up paying over $40 for food for 1. Service is great, music is great, even if loud. I hope they create a better price point for the neighborhood they serve and make the sides as good as the main stuff!“

“My googled a restaurant near by from where we were and he found this one with good reviews and we decided to try.The food was great (empanadas, ceviche, jalea, camarones and of course fries yuca), drinks were very good too. The staff was very nice and friendly. But I have to say the VIP room is claustrophobic, wouldn't recommend, on the other hand was a good option as we could talk, cz in the main room, the music is too loud and ppl have to talk even louder to understand each other. I'll definitely come back.“

“The staff, particularly Wendy, couldn’t be more lovely. Wendy tends to my 2 year old grandson which such sweetness! Above and beyond great service. ❤️“

“great atmosphere,food and drinks“

“Really good food and aesthetic atmosphere! Loved the nachos and quesadillas it was really fresh and delicious! Jessie was our server and she was very attentive and made sure we are okay at all times. It was my birthday and I really enjoyed celebrating here!“
