El Gallo Negro Corona Reviews
Good portion size for the price. Delicious authentic food. Slower service though. Huge space, lots of places to seat. 20% gratuity included in the bill.
The food was very good and the waitress were amazing good service
I went for breakfast and it was excellent food and service. I went back for dinner and took a friend. The food was excellent but the service was not. Our waitress was too busy kissing a bar patron for tips, like at least 10 times. We had to repeatedly ask for water, bowls and utensils. I want to state that the restaurant is very clean and attractive and the food is excellent! Servers are the link that can kill a business, in spite of how awesome it is.
Good music, very clean restaurant, very helpful staff. Food was outstanding, they have regular menu and lunch specials. Very reasonable priced. Large quantities of food, so my husband and I split the meal so we could try their Tres Leches Cake which was delicious. Ice cold beer and specialty drinks. Must try if in the area, close to the 111 th MTA 7 train access and exit.
Love coming here with friends and family before the Mets game. Our waitress Milady is always attentive and provides amazing service!
So good , they have fajitas , the regular, American kind but with authentic flavor. They have a great selections of steak entrees too. Great late night spot as well.
The new owner has made so much improvements with service and quality , the food was beautiful and hit close to home and the drink were also beautiful , ascetically pleasing and equally delightful , the birria tacos are so good . I would return back again ! 1000%
Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you to the baddie who helped me with my order cause I'm in love with the food and I had the chicken taco 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Definitely recommend it!!! They told me 20 mins and bam it was ready for me. That's the type of service I love I swear fast and clean hassle free ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌
4/17/24 first time here. We came for brunch, 8 of us ... We sat at the bar & we were the only ones in the place at 10:30am on a Wednesday... (Not a surprise). So given those conditions, service was good and friendly, the food and drinks were really good and the prices are very reasonable too! I had the Morning Burrito and it was really good, the potatoes were nice and not over cooked. Chips n salsa are good, the little sauces you get are nice, the green is not hot at all, the red has some heat to it and it's a nice flavor too, try the little red one if you like hot. Others had huevos rancheros and liked it. It did look good and I'll get that next time. So we will be back!
THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT,BUT I WAITED 35 MINUTES FOR MY TAB. Hands down the food is super fresh. You must wait a bit for them to prepare it ,but once you get it is crazy good.If you want authentic well done Mexican food this is the place. The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because alot can improve on the service side. No one assigned us a seat. No host greated or directed us to a table. People walked in search of a table. And my tab took 35 minute to come after asking 6 times. Do not come to dine here at late hour, as this is not in the safest neighborhood unless u have a ride.
I really liked this spot for weekly margaritas with my husband. But one night when we went, they over charged us different prices from the menu. When we asked the waitress, she acted oblivious and blamed it on the tax but we were charged double tax. Very weird, now I have to find a new spot :/
I order take out … fast forward to them delivering my food .. the guy didn’t have change he said oh it’s okay I’ll let the store know for next time you order they can discount it from there .! I go in and all of a sudden there different delivery people, they can’t call or communicate with anybody about it ..!
Called to kindly ask them to stop leaving flyers at my house because they blow off and I can get tickets. They hung up on me.
The waitress got the order wrong, and she said she couldn't return it or else the waitress herself would get charged for it. Like, what the hell? She came back in total 4 times to ask if everything was okay and kept forgetting things. I would understand if she was the only one there and if it was busy but it wasn't. There was us and another table and 2 waitresses. Also, they automatically charge gratitude which is just stupid considering she didn't do a good job.
We got here after a game. We ordered and it took an hour for us to find out our order was never submitted. Once we found out we were told we will get a discount(after we ask for one) Then my friend got his order and it was wrong. he didn’t say anything because he was so hungry. Once we got the bill we got 24 off but 20 was added on tip. What was the point ??! Food was great but service not so good. Honestly the girls apologized. However I believe it was the owner call. The excuse was the other table waited longer than us. But that’s not okay regardless.
Food is great but the employees are thieves. Ordered for delivery and this lady that works there called me over 10 times demanding a tip. She adjusted the order total and took a $10 tip for herself. I would never eat here again. Watch your transactions when you order and dine in.
