Spanish Restaurants near College Point, NY

“Ordered via uber eats. Food came as estimated. Ordered guacamole and got pico de gallo. Food tastes good. Good portions. Pupusas mixtas ate delicious. Horchata has great flavor. Nachos come with pico de gallo and cheese sauce and a side of refried beans. Uber eats has no description or photo. Will definitely order again and recommend.“

“The best Spanish food restaurant in NY, at the level of the tops in Barcelona and Madrid. Excellent quality, excellent wines. The unbeatable treatment. The atmosphere very pleasant. We will repeat soon to be able to dine in that pleasant garden...“

“best tapas outside of spain, and fair prices for the quality and taste, freshness too.used to be on 19st pre pandemic this location is beautiful. staff very friendly. we’ve been all over, to thousands of restaurants in the city and this is one of our favorites.Kid-friendliness: lots of families and lots of space“

“This place, to me, is such an under-rated, undiscovered gem. Every time we are theremcrowded, we keep expecting it to be way more crowded as it's not a huge place, but the food and service are on par with some of the best tapas places around. And the prices are also Very reasonable too. They are unique, in that they are more Argentinian tapas then Spanish or Basque. So, in addition to favorites like paella, grilled octopus, and patatas bravas, there's also a decent selection of pastas and Italian fair via Argentina. And in warmer weather, the back garden can't be beat. Always fun music playing (often 80s dance or rock hits), homemade sangrias and a finished meal with free shots of Limoncello round out the meal. Friendly, top-notch service too. Let's keep this place going! They'd be worth the wait.“

“Such a beautiful space, delicious tapas, warm staff, great wine selection, clean and the prices a great! Great space fir meetings, lunch, dinner, … Did I mention they have a nice Happy Hour!? Yes they do! I have recommended it and will definitely revisit“

“I recently dined at Vinateriá and I must say, the food and service were absolutely phenomenal. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and seated promptly. The menu offered a variety of authentic Italian dishes, and everything we tried was delicious. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sauce was rich and flavorful. The service was attentive, friendly, and truly made our dining experience exceptional. I would definitely return to this restaurant in the future and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic Italian meal. 5/5 stars.“

“Went here for dinner midweek. Food was excellent. Great apps including empanadas. The beef one was exceptional. Also had a salmon crudo app which was on special. Many specials at this place. Fish is a specialty I went with halibut which came with an awesome leek based sauce. My friend had a steak and it came with an awesome sauce too. Desert was a banana bread pudding in a sugary sauce again. This place has sauce!! Service nice and friendly quite attentive. Place is big with a nice seating area downstairs as well as a private room highly recommended go check it out.“

“I had a great time on Friday night at our friend's birthday celebration at Marbella. The staff is wonderful, so friendly ! Marcello was very attentive and made sure we had a great time AND we always had a drink. A++ The room is very spacious and festive. The cocktail hour was great! Had a lot of my favorite bites, like seafood croquettes and tortilla espanola! Dinner was lovely, buffet with items such as pork loin, arroz con pollo and stuffed filet of sole which I really enjoyed. (if u know me, you know i dont eat fish, my hubby couldnt believe i ate this piece of sole! so good!) Lastly...Sangria, my drink of choice always...was a constant on the table and I couldnt be happier! I will definately be visiting the restaurant very soon!“

“There is not much variety of food, the atmosphere is good but there is no place to give celebration surprises, I didn't like that. I went to celebrate my first year anniversary and I couldn't give the surprise because they didn't do that there. That's what I liked. I'm quite disappointed.“

“Fatima's is the best. I got the pernil, which I don't see on the "dishes I recommend" list, and that is a crime because this pernil was *amazing.* Also just plain old rice and beans, I don't know what they do to them but even the next day when they were cold they were still the best damn rice and beans I've ever had.“

“This is our second time of many at Sangarita's. The calamari, paella mariscos, pulpo (octopus), tuna tar tar, Cubano sandwich tapas , drinks are amazing. You want a mix of lychee martinis and tapas, this is your place! I am a foodie and been all over New York and more and this place has fresh seafood and great entrees. The flan and churros are a must. Juan and his team are great and we will be back for my cousin's birthday! Check Sangarita's out at Bell Blvd“

“The closest you will get to Dominican food without being in Dominican Republic. The sangria is also extremely strong, which is an amazing thing. Absolutely love this place, strongly recommend everything on the menu especially the rotisserie chicken, best chicken ever, my go-to spot every time I cross the GWB. 5/5“

“Yes Mama is one of the best discoveries of Astoria this year!Jessica runs the business all by herself and does a damn good job of it! Not only did she cook homemade Puerto Rican recipes, but she hires entertainment along with having a great selection of wine.I had the Carne Guisada (beef stew with white rice) and it felt like I was eating a mother’s cooking. Paired it with a couple glasses of Rosasera and a lovely Latin jazz band playing in the background and it was heaven. There were even some board games for us the play with while we waited on our food.Topped off the night by splitting a plate of the coquito flan served with the most adorable heart shaped spoons. It was so rich and decadent.If you live in or venture out to Astoria, please please please pay this place a visit! You’ll be so happy you did!“

“We celebrated our wedding ceremony and reception at MyMoon in October 2023 with a party of 75 people. We cannot fully express how wonderful the whole experience was for us. The venue was everything we wanted- Spanish decor, moody, romantic, cozy, and beautiful greenery in the courtyard and deck. The food and cocktails were delicious! Our event coordinator, Lee, is knowledgeable, super responsive, and organized. The staff was well equipped, attentive, and knew how to run an event. Our wedding went smoothly and Lee was there to address any unexpected concerns and provide support throughout the day. Our guests were surprised by this hidden gem in Brooklyn and expressed how much they enjoyed their time! We would love to attend a wedding here as guests!“

“Uncle Peter’s was a wonderful dining experience! The service was great. Our entrees included the grilled skirt steak and pesto gnocchi. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the pesto gnocchi was very delicious— a great vegetarian option. The crème brûlée was fantastic, and delicious cocktails as well. Everything was top notch quality and there is nothing better than that ✨ would 100% come back and recommend to others ?“

“Always have such a good experience when I dine here. The food is incredible. Drinks are tasty and fun. The staff is always so welcoming and lovely. Definitely recommend for a date night or a night out with friends! Oh and the churros are out of this world!“

“Had a cute date here with my partner after wanting to try this place for a long time. I’m from spain and I thought the food was great actually! We got the setas, pulpo, and paella de mariscos. All of the seafood was tasty and cooked really well. Definitely will return.“

“Very good service, the girl who served me was very friendly, she was always attentive to me, she treated me very well, I loved her service, the order was prepared very quickly, they didn't make you wait so long and the food was very good by the way, the drink too very good, pina coladas recommended. I liked!!!Kid-friendliness: The place is good to go and share with the family, very safe.“

“Came for the Tapas Tuesday deal, absolutely LOVED it. This was my third time coming to El Born and they are 3/3 with amazing food, drinks, and service. I highly recommend coming for their Tapas Tuesday (all you can eat Tapas for $16 plus a drink). The food was fabulous, the drink menu is excellent and the service & atmosphere are awesome. What else can you ask for? Happy to have this spot in the neighborhood!“

“It's a very nice little place, they have a live Jazz band on Wednesdays, the drummer also does a karaoke night. He's absolutely fantastic, very funny and no matter how many or little people are there he tries to involve everyone there, it's great.. If you participate you get a little trophy ? you must go at least once.. it really is a little hidden gem!! ??“

“The food was amazing everything look good but the baked chicken was so good and flavorful cooked to perfection. The rice mixed with black beans and veggies so good the avocado a wide selection of drinks. Service was amazing everyone was smiling talking to customers.. ambiance pretty just 12pm on. A Monday“

“Gave this place a try a week ago and it was pretty good. Nothing we had was what I would call "ground breaking" but it was pretty solid for classics. The pancakes were very fluffy and fat but held good flavor too. For some reason I just had to try this places chopped cheese (my local bodega stopped selling food and switched to weed) and yea I've had better chopped cheeses but it did scratch that itch when you're craving one. I got the energizer juice also which was on par with others no notes. All in all the place is studry it sells what it's good at and seems to have a following of customers that appreciate that.“

“Food was delicious. we had stuffed mushrooms, fried calamari, shrimp with garlic sauce, chorizo with peppers and onions for appetizers. I had Fideau with seafood it was delicious. Healthy portions. Service was exceptional!! Others had seafood paella, veal chop, shrimp. I recommend this restaurant ❤“

“Easy 5 stars, even with a long wait for the bar… b/c they were fully booked and we came in on a Saturday evening with no reservation at the last minute, so that was COMPLETELY understandable. I’m only mentioning it b/c i recommend getting a reservation and so that if you go, and it’s busy, be prepared to wait, but it is worth worth it! They even brought out two tapas to thank us for waiting it out. The octopus (seared perfectly), and mushroom croquettes were his favorite, while the shishito peppers, and camarones de ajillo were my strong favorites (I needed more bread for the amazing hot garlic olive oil at the bottom). I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you have any interest in Spanish tapa style of food. The potatoes bravas were good, I like mine super crispy so I would ask for that the next time. I had cava this time, but they have some amazing sangria and cocktails.“

“Blast from the past Spanish style restaurant with stone and tiles and wrought iron trim that evokes old Madrid. Tapas are serious eating here, as the crowd of locals will testify. Croquettas are creamy and full of ham, delicious olives, yummy crab cake, cheeses, Iberico pork, paellas. Their large menu has many options and hearty portions. Fun night out for your taste buds...“

“Came Monday evening on a date - this is a good spot for such because its cute and quiet inside while not being overwhelmingly stimulating we ordered 2 dishes to share and both were excellent, however, i am in awe over their prices as we bought these 2 dishes and 1 beer and the bill was $60 - i left pretty hungry still! i will say the food is cooked to perfection - the steak was juicy and the pork was delish. the sauce on the french fries and really just everything had been perfectly seasoned. def recommend!“

“Great chicken steak sandwichGreat chicken shwarmaHe has fries better than McDonald's.... yes better than!Wings are really good! Add any of the sauces to your liking. I had the regular honey, so good! Will try the fried chicken next time I go!“

“As a long time patron this place is home away from home.The food is always great,the drinks are made with care and love and the staff is amazing.Friendly,attentive and responsible for the ambiance in either the dining room side or the bar side it is as close to automatic as you can get when wanting a local bar.Cesar,Alvaro and the gang always make sure the experience is up to standards and do it with“

“Fantastic food! The grilled calamari was the star dish - beautifully cooked with some great flavors! As was the octopus, patatas brava and the paella valencia. Also the sangria was delicious - fruity and boozy - and went down really well with the food. Good service too. Will definitely head back for more tapas and sangria soon.“

“Went for a spur of the moment late dinner of small plates with no expectations and were very pleased with the result. A great spot to exit the bustle of Metropolitan Avenue. The mussels were excellent and the other items on the menu, while not innovative, were very well executed.“

“Good food! Excellent service! The waitress was very nice and attentive and the food was delicious. I had the special of the day. It was soup with potatoes and meat. Not 100% sure what I ate exactly, but it hit the spot. It was perfect for the weather and was incredibly filling. And for just $12!“

“This is by far, and I mean BY FAR the cleaniest Dominican restaurant i been in. Pastelitos on point, that's hard to find. Most importantly Fresh, Good vibes plus excellent service, We all know that's hard to find now in days. Im really happy with this spot. After pandemic restaurant and service not same anymore, and more expensive. Definitely go back.“

“Celebrated my sisters birthday with 40 family members and wow! Ricky the manager was great, kind, professional and accommodating. Restaurant is clean atmosphere with the live band and DJ and a nice dance floor for some good fun! The decor is gorgeous and Brian our waiter was phenomenal! Would recommend for dinner or a party the service was spectacularParking: $20 valet cash“

“Excellent food, although the portions could be larger. We had sangria, fried calamari, Arroz Pescador. The service was truly out of the scale. Flaco even sang “Happy Anniversary” to us with a complimentary flan and candle. He was funny (dropped by our table on purpose just to say a joke or two). Really lovely person.Parking: Easy“

“My go-to Mexican spot in greenpoint for pick up or dine in. The food is always so fresh, down to every ingredient. They have so many options and even offer specials. Although we pick up often don't sleep on dining in. The staff is always so nice and suggest new dishes. One of my favorite spots, always great “

“This is a restaurant specializing in grilled chicken. I have only gotten takeouts from here so I cannot speak to what the restaurant atmosphere is like. The food portion is generous an prices are reasonable for the neighborhood. I usually get the half chicken. The chicken seasoning is good and I like the smoky grill flavor, but I find that the meat can be quite dry and tough.“

“Amazing food! Excellent service! Outstanding juice bar!!! We had the Moro and ribs and chicken cutlet… yellow rice and beans and pastelon… delicioso!!! Please go here!!! I highly recommend this place… wow!! By the way….. the prices are great!“

“My wife and I have eaten here for many years now. Best grilled salmon and skirt steak we have eaten and not over priced the owners and staff are very friendly always attentive of customers need. We want to especially thank Donna who is our regular server she goes above and beyond not only for us but to all the customers she serves. And she also makes the best apple martini.“

“At 6am they are fully ready for service. The line is hot and stocked. The grill is sizzling. Everything is fresh. Half a dozen employees hustling to get the working folks fed and out the door. It’s not the cheapest, but in exchange you get quality, speed and the early start. Fair.“

“PROS1. Chicken Stew is good.2. Codfish Stew is good.3. Codfish salad is good.4. Fried Fish is good.5. Rice is well made.6. Chicken Gizzard Stew is good.7. Mangu is well made.8. Baked Chicken is good.9. Goat Stew is Super Tender and Flavorful. 10. Chicken Noodle Soup is Delicious. 11. Homemade Hot Sauce is Delicious“

“The atmosphere was great, loved all the lights and the overall layout of the place. The music was way too loud though. Had to text my date to communicate we couldn't hear each other lol. The food was bangin tho. I had the empanadas, my date had the lobster with steak. Our waitress was excellent too, took our orders very accurately and swiftly despite how noisy it was. She was knockout too very pretty. The music itself was awesome too, a few decibels down would've been golden. Great experience overall, Shoutout to the staff!“

“I can't tell you how many years I've passed this place and never ate there until today and the food and drinks were outstanding the service was outstanding everything about this place is magnificent the desserts my top picks bread pudding . amazing. the only thing I regret is not coming here sooner LOL“
