37 Best Latin American Restaurants in Queens

“Recently went and although the food and waiter staff were great, we were expecting what we seen on here. There was no performances. An empty space. Apparently there's a 2 hr gap between brunch and dinner. The booking site allowed for a 4pm reservation. When we arrived we were accommodated but looked at funny. We found out that brunch had ended at 3pm. I was really hoping for the full experience I seen here and paid alot and didn't get it.“

“Excelente sazón y CONSISTENCIA en la misma quizás uno de los mejores restaurantes de comida ecuatoriana en los últimos 3 años en la ciudad de New York . Lugar muy limpio, espacioso , baños impecables, amplio estacionamiento y el sabor de la comida es realmente auténtico , lo único q podría mejorar es la atención un poco caótica y desorganizada pero en general todos los meseros son amables, vayan por ahí no se arrepentirán!“

“Best experience ever, the food was prepared from a chef that loves cooking and knows how Peruvian food has to taste.

The waitress was attentive, polite, friendly and managed our order very well.

The place was clean and welcoming.

We came by recommendation also from their social media page that posted about this place.

We drove around an hour and a half to this wonderful place and we will definitely coming back.“

“The best Ecuatoriana Food 🍱!!“

“The food here is very good. They cook the food fresh in front of you. I went here on my lunch break one day and ordered two tostadas, they cooked the raw chicken right there. The food was well seasoned and it was cooked to order. As they were making my tostadas another cool took a tray of baked chicken out of the oven. It looked so good I almost canceled my tostadas for the chicken. Needless to say the tostadas were delicious. If you’re in the area give this place a try.“

“I did enjoy the food but most was the service extremely friendly and professional“

“Exelente servicio la comida deliciosa la atención muy buena y el ambiente confortable para sentirse como en casa � recomendadisimo“

“Honestly I’m confused at the bad reviews. Ordered from here last night. El pastor was great and the pupusas were pretty good (the el pastor was the show stealer though). My friend really liked his chicken quesadilla. The sauce could have a little more going on but not bad. Overall very“

“Las pupusas son riquísimas. Solo un detalle! La espera es algo tardadita.“

“Karaoke night was great But need it more space for dancing“

“The owner is very cordial and considerate. The restaurant is clean and has two bathrooms one for men and one for women. I had a beef stew which was a lunch special it had white rice ,mixed vegetables and lots of beef. It would’ve been better on separate plates for each of the items on the special. I’m sure if asked they would serve the special on respective separate plates when asked. The food is served from a hot table with 8 or 10 selections of entrees ofbeef,pork,chicken,and vegetables as well as white rice. It is a basic eat in restaurant doing a large delivery business. The do have a wine and beer license and serve after 12 pm. I tipped though it wasn’t implied. A good place to go.“

“The small plates and the desserts are fantastic.“

“Siempre de show!! La comida excelente el servicio siempre como en familia deberás un lugar donde los recuerdos renacen ..“

“Great restaurant making yummy authentic Hispanic food. Not really big enough for dine in parties but generous portions, warm staff, and you're greeted by the delicious aroma of the outdoor grill when you arrive. Their seafood soup and marinated red onions really impressed. I need to try the salchicha.“

“Food and dessert were pretty good, could have been warmer. Sangria was good as well, service was good. Only thing that was confusing was the seating as they kept moving my sister up and down the stairs. I would definitely go back and try other things.“

“This place was amazing! I was transported back to Ecuador and felt like I was in the Esmereldas again. I had delicious ceviche and a guanabana milkshake. The staff was so nice. Music was playing and it was a welcome, cooling respite after a day at the beach. They were cash only but also had a Zelle QR code in case you didn't have any. I can't wait to come back!“

“THE PLACE IS VERY SMALL BUT IT IS COMFORTABLE, AND IN COLD WEATHER IT IS GREAT BECAUSE THEY OFFER YOU COFFEE, CHOCOLATE OR DOUGH ATOLES OF DIFFERENT FLAVORS, THE FOOD IS GOOD AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS FRESH, THE PRICES ARE AFFORDABLE AND THEY ALSO HAVE A MINI BAKERY, TRY THE STEWS FROM THE DAY THEY ARE VERY RICH..“

“This is a great Latin cafe spot in the neighborhood that serves anything you can want. I had the Torta 69 style, I wasn’t too blown away by it and I’ve definitely had better tortas elsewhere. They do have a lunch special and the chicken soup was really good. I also had the iced coffee which was perfect for a hot summer day. I would definitely come back to try other menu items out.“

“I went to Malabar for the first time last night with my twin brother & friends!!! The place had a fantastic atmosphere & the music was great, not to mention the service was perfect and the girls and crowd were absolutely gorgeous-WOW!!! Linda the owner was the most gracious host ever and welcomed us-made us feel at home. The food looks absolutely delicious also-will have to try it on my next visit. For a fun night out with an amazing lively atmosphere-I highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back!!! Thank you to all the staff of Malabar for an amazing night/experience“
