Estefani's Restaurant Lynn Reviews
I had the carne asada meal. This meal brought me back to the past. My heart was happy. I grew up eating this same meal my adolescent and adult life. It has been a while since having such a meal but I enjoyed every minute. Gracias!!!!
Nice place with an almost club like feel. The staff greeted my 2 teenage children and I as we arrived and we were promptly seated. The waitress brought out complimentary chips and salsa. I had the birria torta, my daughter had the birria ramen, and my sun had the traditional Venezuela plate. The food was quick to arrive and was very tasty. We finished up with dessert I had fried ice cream and the kids had tres leches cake. Of course these were delicious as well. Will likely go back soon.
Loved the food and everyone there is so friendly and welcoming. I went for dinner with my 13 year old, we didn't have a reservation and we were able to be seated right away. I first started with the margarita flight, I love that they do that so you can sample 4 different flavors, my favorite was passionfruit. My son loved the idea so we asked if he could get a juice flight and they did it with no questions asked. For an appetizer we tried the Elotes ( Mexican street corn on the cob) it was delicious. ( Be sure to specify if you want spicy or not) My son ordered fajitas and said they were really good, I had the Barria Tacos and they were great. We were already full but had to try a dessert so we went with the Fried Ice Cream and it was delicious.
Let me start out by saying the R&B brunch was the BEST time I have had in a long time. Will definitely be going back. Dont really do Lynn, just because its out of the way for me. My family is Honduranian so the food was BOMB and tasted like home. Drinks were amazing, absolutely recommend getting the flight. DJ Lumi was AWESOME on the 1s & 2s, he definitely creates a vibe that is unmatched. Only concerns, parking is meh, but you can find it. Its quaint but doable and they could use a little more help - staff is great it just gets busy and you can wait a bit. Would recommend they provide you with a small plate to nibble on while your drinking and waiting for your food. Lastly you must pay a fee when making a reservation (only $5 per person) no big deal.
I am just in town for this week and I asked around on Facebook where the best place to get Birria tacos was and they recommended Estefanis. And BOY DO YOU GUYS NOT DISAPPOINT! These tacos were heaven!!! Service was great everyone was super nice and cool. The atmosphere is so chill and then I brought to tacos home….. I’ll definitely be back to get more before I go home!!! 10/10
We went for brunch Sunday and had some of the best food around. We started with avocado toast, then went to fajitas. Ask were top notch. We also had some great margaritas. I got the flights and my wife got a mango again great. My server was Fatima she was awesome and on point. Well done.
I love coming to Estefani’s. I’ve been enjoying this restaurant since its inception. The birria tacos are the absolute best and the drinks never miss. The service can be a bit slow when it’s busy but that’s to be expected. I highly recommend Estefani’s if you’re looking for good food and want to catch a vibe.
I can’t recommend this restaurant enough! I went here on a LOVELY night out with my best friend, had such fresh and delicious food, generous drinks, the nicest service, and great vibes. You can taste the food is made with love, and the staff treats you like family.( and very fair pricing !) I left with a smile and a full belly ! Will be going back soon xoxoxo
This place is amazing. Very clean and presentable. The food is amazing. Very good portions. The steak we got was very tender. Waiting time was not too bad. Will definitely recommend. The atol de Elote was absolutely delicious.
Came here for a lit brunch must get the tower. Peep my drinks above delish. Friendly staff, an actual dj who mixes great new tunes with a splash of the old, and some tasty latin food . I got the white rice, red beans and chicharrón.
Best birria tacos and birria Ramen I've ever had. Great pricing. Great service. Drove an hour and 15 minutes to get there. Worth it. Will be back.
Great chicken fajitas and guacamole. The server, Jackie, was pleasant and courteous. Dining area was spotless and well spaced out.
I try to explain my experience today at this wonderful restaurant the taco is really fresh here! Enjoyed the food and the service was nice her name Stephanie Would highly recommend checking this restaurant out if you're in the area. i back again soon.
We went on a Sunday for brunch. The vibe was good, the DJ was playing good music, the service, drinks and food were all great. I really enjoyed myself there.
Hidden gem! The fajitas are amazing! Always running interesting and delicious drink specials
Awesome place, great food and they have tower Mimosas!
Amazing food and drinks DJ at brunch was so good and fun vibes. Best tacos hands down!!!
This was recommended by a client. Definitely great food lots of options on the menu.
Came here with my family because we heard they had pretty good food. The inside was super cute and trendy. And let me tell you good food is an understatement. They’re Barria tacos are out of this world. Probably the best I’ve ever had. The waitress was so nice and accommodating, especially with my girls who were sharing a plate of Barria tacos and she had the cook make an extra one for us so they each got 2. Definitely my taco spot from here on out.
Hands down, the best fajitas I have ever tasted! Highly recommend this restaurant. The music is loud so you have to be able to eat and listen to music turned up to 11 🤣 but we enjoyed the atmosphere and the food is just amazing 🤩
My friends and I went for the old school reggaeton brunch today 3/19 best time in a long time. The DJ was 🔥. Even the customers did so many dance offs it was a complete fun friendly vibe. The food was excellent and the drinks superb. Staff was busy but always had a smile and were friendly. Definitely returning soon. Highly recommend 👌
5-Star Review for Estefani’s Restaurant If you’re looking for amazing food, great prices, and an unforgettable vibe, Estefani’s Restaurant is the place to be! Their menu is packed with delicious options, but the real star of the show is their infamous Birria Tacos—hands down some of the most flavorful, juicy, and delicious tacos I’ve ever had. Every bite is packed with rich, slow-cooked goodness that keeps you coming back for more. But it’s not just about the food—Estefani’s knows how to bring the energy! On weekends, they turn up the heat with a live DJ, and the place transforms into a full-on party. The atmosphere is electric, the drinks are flowing, and the crowd is always ready to have a great time. If you’re looking for a spot to eat, drink, and catch a whole vibe, this is it! Whether you’re coming for the food or the nightlife, Estefani’s never disappoints. Highly recommend checking it out!
All the food was delicious my family was so happy, great attention and atmosphere
Food was incredible!!! I ordered the combination fajitas and they were the best I’ve ever had. The seasoning was to die for. My group and I ordered the tower margarita and were not disappointed! No one was not in love with their plate in my party. The vibe was great and I will definitely be returning! Yum!
Truly impressed by the Birrias I had today! They won a new customer!!
Estefani’s is a special place! Whatever you’re looking for: brunch, lunch, dinner or grabbing drinks this is the place to go. The food is always amazing. The menu is huge so there are lots of choices! The famous birria tacos are delicious but everything is so good you can’t go wrong. They have put a lot of attention and time into this space! The owners are always around and are so kind. They really have brought an awesome restaurant and social space to the area. Try one of their famous margaritas or mimosa tower and have a good time. You will not be disappointed!
I loved the birria tacos. They were accommodating to my two year old and put us at the table with the couches. The steak had a great taste a little dry but over all was good. The beans were really good. The flights always could of been stronger. I will go back again.
Medium burger this is not! Its a hockey puck. Super well done. It was my kids meal. The waitstaff is nice, the food is amazing. I've never had a mistake with my orders. Anything Birria is great, the rice and beans are really good. Kids meals are great. My kids love them.
Food is not bad but they play music pretty loud there.
This is a nice place for a bunch spot. Food is okay. Anytime I order take out they always forget either a pupusa or something.
The vibes are always great here. The music is loud and enjoyable. We usually get a mimosa tower/drinks and apps and are good to go. The service is a little slower, but you don’t truly notice. Great spot in the Lynn area for brunch or dinner.
Good food and drinks. For a single person at a bar they added gratuity
First off, their prices are extortion. Everything is very pricey and based off of my 2 experiences, not worth the price. I got an order of Birria tacos, and i saw birria ramen which looked interesting to try. They have me this 99 cent ramen that they just put their birria sauce over for $17!!! When they handed this to me, i thought i was crazy. But nope! This was real life. I really paid $17 for instant ramen. The birria tacos are good, and somewhat reasonably priced for their size. Everything else on the menu is quite pricey.
I specifically came here for the birria tacos a few times and the sauce is literally always oil. It would be extremely sickening/unhealthy to dip the tacos in a sauce that is just cooking oil. I had to eat the tacos without the sauce.
Came here for brunch on a Saturday but I guess they only do it on Sundays now. We came after seeing how lively it looked on Instagram but it was nothing like that when we arrived. Food was good. Drinks were overly sweet. Service was great. I paid $10 ($5 per person) to secure my reservation on Open Table, which should only have been a hold but it was deducted from my account and still - after 3 days - has not been reimbursed. Now I have to call and ask them to reverse the charge. Hopefully they do and I won’t have to go through my bank. There was only one table in use when we arrived so I didn’t even need a reservation in the first place. Overall, I give it a B- although it may drop to a C if they don’t reverse the charge.
I love to support local establishments and I know this place does great stuff, as I tried it once before, but I must have caught some really bad luck with the kitchen tonight. Poor experience. Wings: some of the worst I have ever had. They were so over-cooked that the cheap bleu cheese could not save it. If this is what comes out of the kitchen, they should take it off the menu. I love wings and order them often. These were awful — ate one and the other 5 in the trash. Taco salad: Maybe I just made a poor selection. The crispy bowl was perfect. The lettuce and tomatoes fresh but not cut up properly. The steak was poor quality, over-cooked and extremely dry. Almost $40 (delivered) and feel like the value, not to mention the product was poor tonight
Had to give 2 stars I ordered birria tacos based on a good review I read on here specifically on those tacos ... I got dry tacos the whole thing dry so much cheese huge pieces of onion I’ve ordered birria tacos from one other place and those were authentic the ones I got from estephanies not so much disappointed will not order again
The Food Is Good 4.5 stars but the amount of vegetables in My Salmon Asado poor , the taxes in this place are really high too I spent 40$ in 2 salmon asados and look the amount of vegetables mmm Naahh this place start with A good portion of Food and Now they are cooking diferent very poorly
I honestly can't say anything good about the food. Got the Montaneiro plate. The skirt steak was a thick grizzly mess. There was a small bit of fresh salsa in the plate that dehydrated and not fresh at all. The rice was severely overcooked and mushy, plantains not seasoned, the salad consisted of 2 tomato slices, 3 pieces of lettuce, and a piece of cucumber. Even the beans suffered from a lack of flavor. The egg on top of the steak was yellow, dry and overcooked. Disappointing experience.
Really strange experience at this spot, 20% gratuity is included for all parties, regardless of size. Since service was fine (never came to check on meals, offer water, or even did anything above 20% worthy), we felt 20% was sufficient, however, when server took bill, she responded with, no tip? Huh, who get's that 20%? One and done for us, if the food was great, we'd try it again but it's not and the music is so loud, your ears will bleed.
I’m giving this spot a one star not because of the service because I gave that three stars which could’ve been better and not because of the atmosphere because it’s a nice place. I was just a little curious why it was so dead at 12:45 PM on a Sunday when brunch is usually when they get the most busiest, but nevertheless, I did not pay attention to that but what I did pay attention to was How gross and unappealing, the Birria quesadillas and the so-called Bittia tortas were they weren’t tasteful they weren’t presentable. The torta came in a hotdog bun, which was already questionable to begin with lol the drinks that were made tasted like straight liquor and I know that’s the point to an extent, but when all you can taste in an espresso martini is pure liquor or in the margaritas you know they weren’t made right we didn’t try any of the other food but based off the reviews, we’re glad we didn’t cause the best food we got served there was the complementary tortilla chips they give again it’s a great spot. It looks nice inside, but the food is just terrible……….. also, they include a 20% gratuity in the check already which I don’t mind tipping but the food was gross and they only went up to the table twice while we were there I would’ve gave them less then the $14 something they gave them self……. Again, Reviews Nothing to do with the atmosphere or the lovely ladies taking the order it’s about how the food is really not that good at all They need to revamp that menu. Also, how do you not have any type of breakfast items during brunch? I mean absolutely none nevertheless the food was gross and the drinks, you guys need a better bartender somebody that needs to distinguish the portions of liquor to flavor ratio. This place has so much potential.. also I’m still flabbergasted at the hotdog bun as a bread for a torta item is diabolical!!! And it tastes more like a sloppy Joe than birria torta
I’ve gone multiple times and the food is always good but the last time I went I placed a pickup order through Toast because when I clicked pickup on google it was the first option of services to use to order my food. It told me the food would be ready in 30 minutes so I arrived at the restaurant in 30 minutes and went inside to pick up my order. The lady working there said she had no order under my name and said they don’t use Toast. They only use ubereats and grubhub. I showed her the order confirmation and all the details of my order and all she could offer me was that the restaurant does not use toast and they do not have my order. She offered no type of solution and my card was already charged. She told me to place another order through ubereats or directly through the restaurant. But I just want my money back. Then I email toast and they say that they can’t refund me because this restaurant received 60 other orders through Toast that day. So I’m confused if the lady just didn’t know what she was talking about or was lying to me. All I know is I’m out $30 with no food. Edit: They told me to email them with my order info and when I did they emailed back saying they’d look into it and be in touch with me on November 30th, and it’s been 3 weeks and there’s been no update despite me emailing them again with no response… Looks like I’m going to have to take an L on my $30. Thanks for nothing Estefanis hope you needed my $30 because I sure did.
I made a reservation for Dominican Mother’s Day (05/26/24) at 10PM, we were turned away at 9:45PM due to the restaurant being “closed” The next day (today) I called the restaurant about getting my money back on the reservation I had made at 10PM and Tony the “owner” said that it was impossible to be turned a way and I would not be getting a refund and that he was sorry for the inconvenience. And that my night wasn’t completely ruined because I went to there sister club. Which was not the intended plan, the plan was to eat and enjoy good music. Sorry to say that customer service was not up to part this time. 💔
my friends and i come here often, specifically for the sunday brunches. we’re always very excited, and the vibes and food are great. however, it’s a hit or miss if we are going to have an enjoyable time due to the table placements. every single time we go to this restaurant, we are given some kind of make shift table in the corner, away from a lot of the activity that makes it the “Sunday brunch”. this weekend in particular, we asked if we could wait for a different table if possible, and the (very rude) hostess told us that she would be move us, and then ended up moving the table after us because “they are bigger”. it’s just annoying to come to this place frequently, bc the music and food is fun, but constantly be put in the corner or away from any activity for whatever reason. i don’t know if the “vibes” are worth it, to be treated rudely and sat next to a table filled with trash.
My fiancé and I came here based on the reviews, yeah really bad decision, I would not return. Really cheap quality food. The music was Extremely too distracting and loud to even enjoy ourselves let alone converse . The place struggles poorly to separate its image you’re either a nightclub or family friendly restaurant atmosphere . Horrible customer service, horrible workers, horrible atmosphere. Our waitress came to us twice, the first time to take our orders and the second time to leave the bill. She did not come in between times to check if we were all set or needed anything else. 20% gratuity is also automatically included in your bill even for only a party of two . Be mindful check your receipts for service fees and other charges here . Overall this place had very high expectations and failed miserably management needs to do better catering to the family/friends side of things not just nightclub atmosphere . 3 amigos in Malden is a way better alternative in my opinion in comparison to this place in every way .
Food tasted old and stale, absolutely NOT worth the money. The wings tasted especially terrible old and stale
My friends and I (group totaling 7) came all the way from RI and various areas of Boston due the raving reviews about this place, and sad to say we were HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED. First the music is ENTIRELY too loud to even enjoy the company of your friends and loved ones. Second, the best things on the menu are the corn and tacos I’d say. We were freezing the entire night, bathroom didn’t even have warm water to wash your hands. And last but not least, our bill was charged automatically a 20% gratuity which we would have been fine with paying, however when we did the math then realized we were overcharged by $2, claiming it’s a service fee like service fee where?? We had to waive down our waiter MAJORITY OF THE NIGHT! We split the bill 6 ways and one out the party received a $269 pre authorization charge on a $400 bill split 6 ways??? Another person out the group ordered a soup that was suppose to have oysters, failed to inform us, and waited for us to mention their fault. It seems like they are there to party themselves instead of serve you. Overall this place has too much hype and not enough real service.
Went here for brunch. Parking was the worst. Overall experience was terrible. Waiter took over an hour to attend to us. We had the breakfast menu. The food was flavorless and were small portions. I got the American Breakfast. The toast was hard, dry with no butter. One piece of bacon. The eggs had no flavor and potatoes were nasty. The pancakes were basic. Not what I expected. We were a party of 8 and no one will be returning. Not sure what the hype was about. Music and tower mimosas were good.
Extremely unsatisfied! Food was horrible. We ordered Tortas and the bread was old. I called back to let them know and the employee was very rude and basically told me I was lying about the bread being old! First & last time ordering there.
This was a delivery through uber. Long story short they took my order when they weren’t open. I did not know this so I ordered from a different restaurant. The next day I was in Florida only to see that I had been charged 55 dollars from an order that I placed when they were closed (July 4th) and then never even received the food! I called more than 5x to speak with the manager. I was told someone would get back to me. They never did. Never responded to emails. Basically stole my money. The food is good but I don’t trust businesses who are deceptive and don’t honor their mistakes. It was obvious they were ignoring me. I will never order from them again. I don’t trust the business.
