“Without a doubt, the Ecuadorian cuisine in this restaurant is very tasty. The atmosphere is very calm and comfortable to spend time with family and friends. I like to visit during Happy Hour and cool off with a margarita. Excellent service, Gil is a very attentive worker, very friendly and every time she serves me I feel comfortable since she always serves me with great kindness. I recommend this restaurant 100% and ask for Gil, she and her team will make you feel at home.“
“This truck must come from heaven each morning because this was truly an outer body experience. Who would of thought that the best empanadas you have ever tried would come from a food truck in a part of town you normally aren’t in. After an appointment today my husband and I stumbled upon this truck and being foodies we just had to give it a try. What started as a two empanada order became a pork empanada,ham and cheese empanada, hot chocolate con leche , Sancocho and a dulce de leche empanada. Needless to say we are planning a trip to queens to just try some other items on the menu .Affordable , friendly service & tasty.“
“?URGENT ?????? great observation for the owner of this delicious Peruvian chicken.....the food... one is delicious in my opinion but the staff that serves there is a real failure... ? without education without respect... the waitresses... rude.... if you are looking for a job... do it with love... so that people return... with encouragement that it is a good atmosphere.... with that bitterness without respect... I'm going because it's close to me.... please, Mr. owner... of Peruvian chickens... the customers and the people... we need... more kindness... your staff..... thank you.....“
“I hated Lima beans, until I ate them at Contento. In fact, everything I ate there was perfection. My husband and I sat at the bar, which is exactly where I’d sit again. It’s cozy, comfortable and you can see some of the kitchen action as well as chat with fellow diners. The chef came out and helped us pick out a great bottle of wine. I use a wheelchair, which is what first attracted me to going to Contento. I appreciate feeling included. But I have recommended the place to friends and the next time I’m in New York I look forward to going back.“
“Te amo Mission Ceviche! My Boyfriend took me here for my birthday. The entire staff treated me like a King! The customer service at this restaurant is absolutely incredible! The food is a gastronomical fantasy. Incredible flavors, fresh ingredients, truly mouth-watering meals. My Boyfriend is from Peru and he says Mission Ceviche is like coming home for him. He is practically obsessed with the two ceviche dishes (Mixto y Classico). For me it is the short ribs. O-M-G I don’t think I have EVER had a meal so memorable and incredibly delicious. To be honest my words do not do the deliciousness of this meal justice. Simply put...it is oh so good. The short rib is cooked to perfection and is so tender you can eat it with a spoon. The accompanying sides are the perfect compliment. The sauce that’s used...I hope they bottle it because I would buy vats of it! The rice with choclo is sublime. The tres leches rich, creamy and absolutely decadent. The food is amazing. The interior of the restaurant is gorgeous. The music is fiyah. The location is super convenient—a half a block to the subway and Crosstown bus. What really sets Mission Ceviche apart is the incredible Maitre’d Carlos. He treats all patrons the same...from babies in strollers to celebrities. He is so incredibly kind, humble, gracious, charming, intelligent, professional and inspiring. He is passionate and proud. It is awesome to see him keep the atmosphere ebullient and festive and the food flowing. He manages it all so effortlessly. I think it is because he honestly loves his chosen career and when you’re happy and you know it “work” is pure joy. That joy Carlos gives it to all of the Mission Ceviche patrons. This was not me and my Boyfriend’s first time dining at Mission Ceviche. We are now greeted by our first names when we arrive. Carlos is there and he has the biggest smile and we know that we are in great hands and know we will eat well. Every dining experience at Mission Ceviche is amazing! Go to this restaurant...make the reservation...you will not be disappointed...trust me! Bravo Carlos and the entire Mission Ceviche staff.“
“we sat at the bar tonight (sunday). our server/bar tender danny was so knowledgeable of all the dishes and how to space out each corse. also made the best old fashioned— and we have a high standard for them. will 100% be coming back with our friends.“
“Yea, this place is amazing. We were looking for a quick bite in LIC on a hot day. We were able to sit down before the kitchen break at 3:30pm to order entrees. We sat in the outdoor seating area, which had great jungle ambiance. Servers were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They have a great cocktail menu. Started off with a few drinks, the pisco sours were amazing. We tried the ceviche mixto and arroz con mariscos, fresh and delicious seafood. There is limited but parking available! Overall, great food, beautiful interior decor, great service, and decent pricing for the area.“
“What a great hidden gem! The food is great and extremely fresh seafood! The ceviche mixto was flavorful and great portion to share. The highlight of the meal was the dessert, homemade ice cream that was creamy and unique! Will definitely go back!!“
“As a Peruvian I have been to a fair share of Peruvian restaurants and also recently to Peru as well but I have to say this place takes the crown for best chicken. The food is incredible and you can tell that everything is made in house. I absolutely loved the food as well as the experience and would personally like to thank the owners for making my friend and I feel at home. I will definitely be coming back with my family. Thank you!!!!!!!“
“We ordered the ribs platter and the ribs and chicken platter. Everything was delicious. The ribs were dinosaur sized and were delicious. I deducted one star cause it was pricey and the rice was undercooked. I saw this restaurant on IG so I wanted to try. Drive from other side of Queens. If in the area, I will buy.“
