“I've been a patron of this deli on and off for 7 or 8 years. It has gone through many iterations through those years. Sometimes the food has been great; sometimes average, but the atmosphere has mostly been kind of dark and uninviting for the non-Latino. The prime clientele of La Familia are the working class Latinos from the many work and repair shops that surround the area. Those folks speak Spanish and thus the ladies that serve them speak Spanish as well, so if that makes you uncomfortable I don't know what to say.As for the atmosphere, I visited La Famila Deli last Friday after about a year of not visiting and the decor has changed. There is more space to move around and there is more lighting. It seems for inviting and spacious.The food the morning of my visit was delicious. Especially, the baleadas! IMHO one of the best baleadas I have tasted on Long Island. I also had a taco de birria and it was juicy and fresh. The ladies there were warm and flirty (as are most great Spanish delis) as is the Hispanic way.I will definitely go out of my way more often for some great and quick Hispanic food at La Familia Deli and Grill.Parking: There are many other businesses besides the deli at the shopping center, so parking may be limited during peak lunch hours.Wheelchair accessibility: Not accessible. The door is too narrow“
“Best chicken cutlet in the area. Left a note for an order specification that they were not seeing (that I was not aware about). I left a lower than usual review because it was happening more than once as I am a regular customer. Immediately they were on it. The next time I placed an order I received a phone call from the owner herself to make sure they knew what went wrong and how they could fix it. This business truly values their customers and really go the extra mile. Great food and great people make for a great experience! Highly recommend to all in the bayside area!“
“Love this place! Have the most variety of different foods & everything I come here I spent like $40 because I want everything lol. Large meal is like $16 tho. They have medium if you wanna spend less. Their steak is the absolute best!!!!! I’ve never had a steak taste that good!“
“Amazing service and food was so delicious! We stopped in here for a quick lunch with my husband and kids and they all enjoyed it. The waiter who I think is also the owner was amazing- thank you Emerson!! Deff recommend for a delicious and inexpensive Salvadoran lunch!!“
“(Translated by Google) The pupusas were well made and the staff very friendly. The good customer service I remember from El Salvador. Return!(Original)Las pupusas estuvieron bien hechas y muy amables el personal. El buen servicio al cliente que recuerdo de El Salvador. Regreso!“
“My family and I are “gringos” and whenever we want to have some authentic Salvadoran cuisine, this is where we go. We are treated very nicely, given recommendations, and it’s always a pleasure to stop in. The pupusas and horchata are fantastic and the service is superb. A wonderful little place for a meal.“
“I eat out in spanish delis every day, and as a now, this is my favorite deli pupusas are the best. food is very authentic salvadorean very santaneca taste to me is the best food in el salvador ?? yes there is 100 more deli the sell salvadorean food but they are not even close you authentic taste come to La Santaneca Deli“
“Honestly, the food is not the best. However, the tiny staff is very friendly and attentive, as us Richie himself. He has a nice display of music memorabilias. It is a very comfortable neighborhood cafe. It is also very convenient, be next to the 169th F train subway station.“
“Ordered for take out to bring to Beach club.The owner Luis grilled us pork chops,chicken,steak and shrimp.Beyond delicious and tender.The rice and refried black beans were so tasty and the papusas were out of this world! I am hooked!!!!! Best Spanish food!!!!“
“A Salvadoran food place... very clean and the food is very delicious. Fried yucca with chicharrones I recommend it 100%. Pupusas... the sea and land tray my favorite. The food is delicious. It is a place where you can enjoy with family and children and there is a secluded place where they can play pool, super cool for men and they also have a bar. In case you go alone or alone. Nice very nice placeParking: On the day of an event it is difficult to find but there is parking on the side and in front of the restaurantKid-friendliness: If children can go to eat. Sometimes I have taken my 2 children, ages 5 and 8. Obio we eat and we leave. Because then they get bored and want to run and I don't like to bother others who come to eat either.“
