Spanish Restaurants near Rockaway Park, NY

“We were supposed to eat at another restaurant, Anny, but when we got there, they informed us that they would only accept cash. Yet there was no ATM. We started walking on 116th, looking for an ATM. Instead, we found this place to eat. It's a buffet style place with only one booth style table. The best thing was that the food was good and the price was right.“

“The chicken beans and rice was so delicious! Chicken was tender flavorful & perfectly cooked. Everyone who works here was so kind and attentive. Dominican food as good or better as any i’ve had in the city. Definitely come here before after or during your beach day.“

“Lee was absolutely phenomenal and everything went perfect. Wedding was awesome everyone loved the food and the cocktails. The service was flawless. From the first tour until the wedding the communication and planning and advice were extremely helpful. Our guests all loved the vibe and no one had any complaints. Bartenders were super quick and made everyone happy. Highly recommend for weddings and events! Thank you very very much to the entire staff at MyMoon!!! Special thanks to Lee for being 100% right and making this day easy and awesome 👏“

“Way better than I was expecting. I ordered from “Kin House” and got some veggie lo mein and wings that were both pretty good! The green beans needed to be cooked more but once I threw them on the cast iron it was great! I definitely will try another of the “ wonder restaurants” on the app.“

“This is a little Gem in Queens. The food is delicious. 😋 Ever felt like you wanted something tasty but couldn’t figure out what? We’ll order from Lugos. Food is well seasoned, big portions, freshly made. That steak is the softest I’ve had in a long time. And it comes with a side. I choose the mashed potato which is nicely done also. Their food is banging!!! You need to try it. Thank me later. FYI This was a door dash order.“

“Beef empanada was good
But the chicken, corn and cheese empanada was amazing. Very delicious
The cassava cheese circular thing was amazing as well the arepa. They both have slight sweet taste to them and it’s very good.
I got 4 items and drink for around $15 only, pretty good price as well
And the employee was very chill when I asked what he recommended to order so they are helpful“

“GREAT FOOD“

“I've been coming to Immanuel Restaurant for a long time, and it never disappoints! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Every meal is prepared with care, and the quality is consistently excellent. The staff is welcoming, and the service makes you feel right at home. If you're looking for amazing food and a place you can keep coming back to, I highly recommend Emmanuel Restaurant. Five stars every time!“

“This place has amazing breakfast!! Decently sized place, service was a bit slow but man they were slammed! Even had like 7 delivery drivers lined up at one point. Makes sense with just how good the food was! Wish we could have gone back for their lunch options. So yummy!“

“Awesome portuguese food! Great service too“

“It's a really good place for a fast meal, the rice and beans are to kill for. However was little disappointed the other day, because one of the reasons I like this place was for the prices. Was shocked how much it cost me the other day. But at the end of the day, the food is “

“una delicia de comida hispana ,las mejores atenciones, todas las chicas muy amables, lugar muy limpio y acogedor 10 de 10“

“The food is bannnnnnnging . I order from door dash , I drive here. The food brings you back, savory flavors, great prices. I order Pernil and rice to-go and while I waited, I grabbed me a Heineken and the chef gave me a complimentary Croqueta de pollo. Wow! Now come down here , and eat good. I’m about to bust this food down!!!!! Come the atmosphere is just as delicious!“

“I enjoy the veggie quesadilla’s I highly recommended Amor Latino drink.“

“Pleasantly surprised,It is not easy to find peruvian food that bring the guest to the original flavors of Perú. This is a place that really make peruvians feel like home.Very good food, amazing service, extremely fair prices, this place is a must!!!“

“This was another happy discovery, and a nice place to stop in for old-fashioned Spanish comfort food. My favorite dish from here is the garlic chicken with rice and beans, as well as the fresh juices. One can make a dish off of the snack foods and smaller dishes by themselves; the standard rice platter that came with the aforementioned chicken lasted me for a few days, there was so much. They also have a wide variety of breakfast dishes and don't mind customizing them as needed.“

“Oh, this place has delicious Dominican food! They season their food just right, not too salty or too bland. My friend and I always come here because the food is amazing and it doesn't upset their stomach. We're both addicted, I might go there later today..“

“This place really knows how to do Halal chicken right. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned all the way through—not just on the surface. You can tell it’s made fresh, not rushed. Portions were solid, prices were fair, and the staff was friendly and quick. Easily one of the best fried chicken spots I’ve been to. Definitely coming back.“

“this is the spot you wanna come to when you’re fixing for some real home cooking style where you’re vibing in an abuelas crib. the soup was delicate and divine. reminded me of childhood. and the rice and beans were just stellar. very cheap. worth coming back to often“

“Super nice and old fashion service! The way life use to be where you felt served and treated nice! I had eggplant Parmesan For lunch. Yum! My friend had a chicken sandwich. Both were good size portions. If I was not traveling, I would have taken leftovers.The Restroom was clean, staff very attentive, atmosphere elegant. 🫶🏽
I hope to return next visit to NYC“

“I have been eating from here for literal years! My dad introduced me to their food about 10 years ago and I can’t believe I haven’t written a review yet.

The food here is consistently flavorful, fresh, and made with love. It doesn’t matter if I eat in the restaurant or order takeout the food here is always a 10/10! My go to order is the Grilled Shrimp Scampi ( Camarones ) with garlic sauce and white rice with beans. My fiancé always orders their Pernil with rice and beans.

If you are thinking of getting food from here, do it! The staff is super friendly and the food is as good as it looks!“

“I've had consistent great quality food from this establishment every time I've visited. Staff is friendly, greets you immediately, and always taking their time to make sure your order is taken correctly. The women here are stunning as well?... they never skimp on their portions, and the quality of the food is always on point. I like the fact that the food is on display, and you can see the food being prepared right in front of you. The atmosphere is very clean, very inviting and has a sense of a home feeling in the sitting area. Did i mention the women are stunning?. Unfortunately i haven't gotten any pics yet, but my next visit I'll make sure to ask if i can take some first, (Brooklyn people just dont like you taking pics of them)...lol but I'd highly recomend you, or the whole family visiting this restaurant for a great experience, and some great food... ohh and did i forget to mention the women here are stunning!!! Thank you El Paraso for continuing your quality service to the community!!! People go here, not there one across the street!!!!“

“Great little local restaurant. Was staying in Brooklyn for a bit and there’s nothing like these type of spots. Great home cooked type food! Came here twice, once for some quick empanadas for breakfast and the other for lunch. Rotisserie chicken, rice, beans and vegetables for $20(USD). Great price, great portion, great food & great people.“

“Exceptional in every way. The attention to detail is what sets this restaurant apart. The food was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and artfully plated. The staff anticipated our needs and made sure the evening was flawless from start to finish. The environment was comfortable, clean, and stylish. This restaurant has mastered the art of combining outstanding cuisine with excellent hospitality.“

“Always busy, clean. Good prices. I have noticed overtime Walmart breads are salty/high in sodium. Whenever I eat I feel so very thirsty. I don't get that feeling at eating bread from elsewhere. Anyways I go there mostly for car oil and Gatorade.“

“I’ve been coming to this spot for years whenever I’m craving Spanish food, and it’s always been a reliable choice.

The food tastes fresh every time, and the fried shrimp is especially good—definitely one of my favorites. I usually go for takeout during lunch, and the portions and variety (like Camarones Al Ajillo, pulled pork, and even desserts) never disappoint.

Service is quick and straightforward, and the atmosphere is decent for a casual visit.

Overall, it’s a solid place with consistent quality, and I’d happily recommend it if you’re looking for flavorful food at a reasonable price.“

“My wife and I just happened to randomly walk past this place, saw the food from the window that looked really good, and took a chance. Really glad we did because the service was great and the food was amazing for a really budget friendly price. Wish I had pictures but we were so hungry and started digging in. Would definitely recommend.“

“Tasty food with plenty of flavor and good portion sizes. The service is friendly and steady, making the visit comfortable from start to finish. The atmosphere is simple but pleasant, giving it a relaxed, home‑style feel. Overall, a satisfying place to enjoy a well‑cooked meal.“

“My favorite place to eat. I mean the food is amazing, I go constantly and always order something different and every time the chef nails it. The only thing I don't like is that on weekends they have the music too loud. Also the service is top notch.“

“I can't believe I almost walked past this amazing place. This spot creates the perfect feel. The service speed impressed us. They're inconsistent with warmth but consistent with service. This restaurant exceeded expectations and I can't wait to return!“

“For good spanish food on the go Jenny 2 restaurant is awesome and these are the reasons. The food is not salty at all very tasty. One can taste all other condiments, not overbearing well manged in taste.Their seafood doesn't taste fishy at all. Their price went up just like everything else in live but Jenny 2, the restaurant the food is worth every penny, awesome food made by Dominicans.

Kid-friendliness: The ladies and men who serve the food are very kind and pleasant, and they don't take a year to serve one.“

“La Gitana Bakery has some truly delicious, fresh cakes that are worth trying. The quality of the baked goods definitely stands out. However, the service wasn’t as friendly or attentive as expected. If you’re going just for the sweets, it’s a great stop, but don’t expect top-notch customer service.“

“It is an excellent place, good food, good prices, the staff is friendly and serves quickly, the place is clean, safe to eat and hang out. I recommend it. It seems like a good place. I have eaten there for years and it has always been a restaurant that I like to return to.

Vegetarian options: It is not a restaurant focused on vegetarian food but they sell salads, juices and a person who does not eat meat can still enjoy a good meal.

Kid-friendliness: It is a clean, quiet place, the staff is friendly and polite and the restaurant in my opinion does not represent any risk for a minor.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp so that a person in a wheelchair or other device that supports walking has the accessibility of being able to enter the premises without major difficulties.“

“I love this restaurants food, my bf and I order from them almost every other week. We usually order online (Uber Eats), one time while doing my 10k steps, I noticed the name of the restaurant, and I walked into it, and the ladies who were working that day where the most welcoming people I’ve ever met, very nice people, the atmosphere was amazing con su musica de bachata felt like a little festival, and I felt like home. It was great!“

“I went here for the first time recently to try their Birria tacos and I was not disappointed at all. They’re the perfect balance of savory, spicy, and cheesy. I also saw they had Mac and cheese so I tried a little cup of it (pictured) and the Mac and cheese was perfect to go along with it. The sauce wasn’t too thick or liquidy. Would 10/10 recommend this place to a friend, and would 20/10 come here after my undergrad is finished up.“

“My favorite place to get food in Crown Heights. Perfect flan. I haven’t had anything off their grill because I go for the steaming buffet that’s by the window. You can see the steam rising off the meats from the sidewalk, and smell it too. Right away you know it’s gonna be good. I’ve had the ribs, roast pork, and beef stew, but my favorite is the baked chicken. Try it over the mangu. Nice staff. Good price. :)“

“Amazing wraps! Great food and people. Owner Angelo is a great person and ensures an amazing meal. I use to work for AAA around the corner, this was a routine stop. I now drive from Yonkers with my girl to treat myself to a wrap from Angelos deli. So when you're in the neighbourhood stop by.“
