30 Best Mexican Restaurants in Astoria

“We checked into our hotel nearby and needed some food while we waited on our room to be ready. We found a hidden gem! The service is outstanding and the enchiladas were delicious!! The vibe is like a typical hole in the wall Mexican restaurant. Definitely recommend!“

“Very nice place to get some tacos and drinks, they have an outdoor area so now that the weather is getting warmer its perfect. Drinks also come with a popsicle, very fun and tasty. Highly recommend the tacos, the chicken mole was okay, not my favorite, but not bad either. Flan was creamy and delicious. Also they allow dogs if you’re sitting outside, I brought mine and they even filled his water bowl :) we will be returning!“

“Everything is Good always im visiting this restaurant one thing 2 counters women are too much good communication with costumer & they are very good in their service I appreciate their hardworking ❤️love it I recommend to visit this restaurant“

“It was kind of dead in there, which made it easy to sit down and actually enjoy your food. Once you eat, the food hits. Everything tastes good and comes out right. Feels like now that the birria taco hype slowed down, you can pull up without the crowd and still get a solid meal.“

“orale tacos a recommended this place the tacos are good“

“Fabuloso Lugar la comida Es deliciosa tengo años de venir a este restaurante se los recomiendo👍“

“So glad we came in here today!! The new management with Mike is exceptional! He was so thoughtful and caring and attentive. Previous owners definitely let the quality and reputation go down hill -- so thankful Mike is turning that story around. Highly recommend!!“

“They sell pasta here. Am I going to get pasta here? No, it's called *Taco* City Cuisine lol. I'll save the pasta order for my local Italian pizzeria.

I got Birria tacos and they were worth it. Time and attention can be felt with every bite. Good stuff. Consume was sorta oily so I skipped but meat was flavorful enough it was fine.“

“My absolute favorite restaurant! The meals are always fresh, with great portions and quick service, and the tacos are consistently on point. I make it a priority to stop by whenever I'm in the area—it's just that good! If you visit, definitely try their horchata. Oh, and the customer service is fantastic!

Kid-friendliness: Family still resturant. They will accommodate. There is space and it is kid friendly.“

“It was 4 am my friends and I were starving all McDonalds were closed we thought there were no food options and that we would have to go to bed hungry and we drove past this place and it was miraculously open! We were so happy. We ordered 5 tacos and the man behind the counter was super helpful and didn't care that it was 4 am. The tacos were AMAZING flavorful, juicy and just some of the best tacos ever! Thank you for being a late night hero!“

“Was here for the first time Awesome all around - everyone friendly - great food - great entertainment !“

“Had a great meal here! We tried the sopes, chilaquiles, and camarones a la diabla, and everything was packed with flavor. The sopes were fresh and delicious, the chilaquiles were perfectly seasoned, and the shrimp was absolutely delicious. It had the right amount of spice. Portions were generous and the service was very friendly. Will continue to visit.“

“I’ve ordered my lunch from here the past two days as a special treat to myself. Not only was my food ready exceptionally quickly but they are so welcoming and nice. And it’s lovely to find good Mexican food so close to my job. I will be adding this to my special treat rotation from here on out!“

“Solid omelet and coffee drinks.“

“I ordered catering from Hot Peppers and it was a hit with everyone! Every single person asked where I got the food from and everyone wants to order from Hot Peppers for their parties! The service was amazing. All the food was securely packed inside quality aluminum trays and containers. They even gave me a plastic crate to make sure nothing spills. They placed a plastic garbage bag in the trunk, to make sure the car is protected if any spills happen. The food was extremely fresh and hot! Despite the fact that I was an hour late for pick up! I was truly impressed by Hot Peppers and their incredible catering service. This will be my Go-To for Halal Mexican Catering! Thank you for the amazing food and freshness of every item! Every single person at my party was very impressed, and most are hard to please. So thats a huge win, in my opinion.“

“This was my favorite restaurant when I lived in the area. I can’t wait to visit it again one day when I’m back in the neighborhood.“

“Always good pizza since I was a kid until today!“

“If you know, you know. This deli is my go-to spot for tacos. Every single time I go, I get the cecina asada (steak) quesadillas ( it’s crunchy tacos) and it never disappoints. The flavor is always on point, seasoned perfectly, and cooked just right. If you go, make sure you get the green sauce i recommend you call before you go so it’s ready!“

“Best Dominicano cake And the icecoffe“

“my boyfriend and I came to this spot late night after work and we were very hungry. One of his friends recommended the spot and we decided to check it out. It was only a 10 minute drive from where we were so we decided to give it a try I wish that we knew that we had to order in advance because although the wait time was sort of long, the food was good. we got the chicken quesadilla (hard shell taco) which were really good and we decided to try the torta with tinga which honestly I wish I just got another order of tacos instead, the torta wasn’t bad. I just expected better and for the wait I feel like it should’ve been better. We also got the guacamole and chips which honestly wasn’t bad. The chips needed salt and the guacamole was made fresh but they didn’t smash it enough. There was still chunks of avocado in it. It was still pretty good though it tasted very fresh which I appreciate. overall, I would definitely come back but only get the chicken quesadilla, which is what they are known for and I would call to place my order in advance because the wait time was not it especially coming after work and you’re super hungry.“
