I’ve honestly lost count of how many times I’ve been to Kandela, and they’ve never disappointed! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by friendly staff and a beautiful ambiance. The drinks are amazing, the food is absolutely delicious, and I love the music and the overall atmosphere—it’s all definitely worth the price. If you’re in Queens and looking for good vibes, a chill atmosphere, and mouthwatering food and drinks, I highly recommend checking out Kandela.

Music was stupid loud. Service was slow, and food was overpriced ($17 for a small bowl of guacamole, chips and salsa). Birria tacos and Baja tacos were good.

So I went today after I had a bad experience with the manager last month because my husband really wanted to go but I should have gone with my gut feeling.the manager has the nerve to point her finger at me and tell me to make sure that I control my 1 year old the nerve of this lady to tell me to control my 1 year old and was nasty about it I will never step foot in there and I will gladly pass this message on to my friends about the rude and unprofessional manager. She doesn’t know how to speak to people

Food is good, friendly staff, fast service, parking is hard to find. The music is too loud.

I’ve been there quite few times. Service is alright, food is decent. But today this Spanish guy that serve us was a little “too funny”. We asked for a dish and he answered with “ but this other dish is cheaper” with a laugh at the end, to me was very unpleasant. If I go to a restaurant they supposed to serve me because I’m gonna pay for it, I’m not asking for opinions.

Kandela is a great place for delicious Mexican food and drinks. The atmosphere is lively, the service is friendly, and the food and drinks are top-notch, especially during happy hour. I'd definitely recommend the sangria and tacos!

5 Stars!
Kandela is absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and inviting. The food was bursting with flavor—every bite was a delight—and the drinks were just as impressive. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel special. Whether you’re out for a date night or a celebration, Kandela is a top-tier choice. Can’t wait to come back!

I live in the area, so I have come to Kandela many times with both colleagues and with family. Unfortunately, today (5/5/20225) we had a very unnecessary and unpleasant experience because of a supervisor (a woman in a blue cardigan). She continuously looked at my family and friends in a manner that was not becoming of a professional. The entire time we were dining, she made us feel unwanted and out of place with her unwavering glances. The staff is generally so welcoming and attentive that I found it to be out of sorts, but she would not cease. As a regular client and a neighborhood local, I find it sad that Kandela management operates in this way. The worst part is that in the many, many times that I have been to Kandela I have never seen this person, but I will never forget how she looked at my party and myself.

Very good place for margaritas and food. Staff are very friendly, birthday celebrations are highly recommended for the Fiesta singing and huge Sombrero hat. Happy hour is the best, good portions for tasty food.
