Las Islitas is a restaurant that offers an authentic Mexican experience, focusing on seafood and fish dishes. The atmosphere is lively, reminiscent of a botanero in Nayarit, and guests can bring their own cooler of drinks. Popular choices include the shrimp empanadas and the cocktail with shrimp and octopus, both noted for their freshness and taste. The lemonade is well-balanced, unlike some sweeter versions found elsewhere. The staff is friendly, and everything is made to order.
However, there are several considerations. The restaurant only serves seafood, limiting options for those who do not eat fish or seafood. Prices can be a bit high, with sides like fries costing $5 for a small serving. The restaurant can get busy, leading to long wait times for food. It may be quieter during the week, but the service is often slow, and mistakes can lead to additional waiting for corrections.
Accessibility could be improved, as there are no ramps for wheelchair users. Still, the interior is even, and street parking is available, with the entrance on 59th Street. The restaurant is kid-friendly, offering items for children and a welcoming atmosphere.
Overall, Las Islitas is a unique and vibrant restaurant with delicious seafood dishes. While it’s a great place to enjoy food with family and friends, guests should be prepared for the possibility of long wait times and limited options for non-seafood eaters.
