Nice food nice people
Ordered Burria quesadilla and burrito- delicious good amount of meat and filling! Elote was refreshing and tangy- liked that there wasn’t just a bunch of cheese and mayo.
The birria tacos are SO good and I will go back for more! Today I met a gentleman near the sculpture park handing out menus and promoting the restaurant, he was nice and the menu looked good. I realized I was hungry and it was lunchtime so I decided to try the restaurant and I’m glad I did.
Loved the birria!! Got the birria quesa, crispy tacos birria and a carnitas taco. Would definitely get the birria quesa again, so much food and so much flavor!
Had the chicken breast torta server was absolutely kind and polite establishment was clean ingredients were fresh and amazing 10/10

New place, great tacos. Everything I got was delicious.
Great quesadilla and tacos! Friendly staff
Food was really savory , the horchata was extra rich and creamy. I had the bowl with steak and the flavors went together perfectly. The guest was extremely kind and accommodating .
Always great food and quick!
Muy recomendable el lugar, yo comí pasta a la vodka, y fue realmente deliciosa 😋 y los tacos al pastor otra verdadera delicia. Y una excelente atención
20 años aquí y no había encontrado un buen sazón, ITA-MEX de lo mejor recomendadisimo
Esta muy rica la comida 😋
Such a hidden gem in Astoria! This cozy restaurant is tucked away on a quiet street, and I’m so glad I discovered it. The menu is a really unique and delicious mix of Mexican-American and Italian dishes, all made with so much care and flavor. You can truly taste the love in the food. The atmosphere is calm, welcoming, and intimate perfect for a relaxed meal away from the noise of busier areas. On top of that, the owner is incredibly friendly, funny, and genuinely kind. He makes you feel right at home and is an amazing cook. I honestly wish more people knew about this place because it deserves so much attention. If you’re in Astoria and looking for something special, this spot is absolutely worth checking out.
New spot in the neighborhood and it is delicious! We had taco's Birria, Al Pastor and Cochinata Pibil and all 3 were hands down amazing. The staff is nice and Chef said Hi. We will def be back and highly recommend you try them out.
While the Mexican and Italian dishes are delicious, don’t sleep on the SMOOTHIES! We don’t have many health food options in this area so it’s wonderful having refreshing smoothie and açaí options so close by. My go to is one of the green smoothies and perfectly crisp mozzarella sticks but everything is excellent!
Food was delicious! Definitely a hole in the wall spot and service was super friendly. Definitely coming back
Owner/Chef worked at Italian restaurant near Lincoln Center for 25 yrs. He knows his food
