I went here with my family recently, and the experience was honestly disappointing from start to finish. We were seated quickly, but it went downhill after that. Our server seemed more interested in chatting with coworkers than taking care of our table. We had to ask multiple times just to get water refills, and when the food finally came out, one of the orders was wrong. Instead of apologizing, the server gave us an attitude like it was our fault. My parents were shocked at how unprofessional it was, it made the whole meal uncomfortable. Definitely not somewhere I’d bring family again. The staff clearly don’t care about the customers. Save your money and go literally anywhere else.

Not good service but charge 20% tips without notification this is the policy of the restaurant when placed the order. Maybe because they know no matter what they would get good tips, so they don’t really care about service.
We just wanted to give a try this restaurant today. No more next time.
Sofia’s Taqueria is much better!

Very bad service. We were visiting our friends in staten island and desided to go out for dinner and try some mexican food, found this place in google, we get in there (sunday evening around 7.30 pm) a short white man immediately looked at us very serius and asked '' How can I help you''? His body lenguage said he didnt like us, we went to a table and again he said the same thing with a very bad attitude ( we were 4 adults and one kid) I assume he was racist. We simply desised to get up and go to another restaurant.

The Cubano sandwich was incredibly tasty. Highly recommend it. Also really liked the Iguana tacos. Rest of the tacos were normal Mexican flare. We had a pitcher of the passion fruit margarita. It was good.

I got the chicken enchilada, comes with rice and beans.
My friend got grilled fish, also came with rice and beans. The sangria was tasty but we needed an extra shot in it to make it work. The food was fresh but too bland. The atmosphere is nice. We sat outside

I have visited this restaurant many times, and it is a 10/10 each visit. The food is not just incredibly fresh and delicious, but authentic and unique. The margaritas are great too. The restaurant itself is beautiful, I love the decorations and the lighting. The service is great and the staff is always nice and welcoming. Definitely one of my favorite spots on the island, can’t recommend enough!!!!
