I Love Paraguay Sunnyside Reviews
I’ve been to I Love Paraguay twice lately, once for lunch and once for dinner, and I will be coming back for more! The food is delicious, and I especially recommend the empanadita platter to split with friends. The waitstaff is friendly and hardworking - come prepared for a leisurely meal though, as it’s one waiter for all the tables. As you eat, you are surrounded by beautiful flower decor that covers the walls and provides a cozy feel. Best of all, the talented and joyful harpist comes up to each table to get to know the guests and play a couple of songs for you!
I highly recommend this beautiful and amazing restaurant to all of my friends. I cannot stop raving about how delicious and authentic their food is! It is top on my list of favorite restaurants of all time that I have been to and have tried so many! This place never disappoints and the food is beyond incredible! A must try! Not only is the food great but the atmosphere takes me to another place where I don’t even feel like I am in NyC anymore but like I stepped into a quaint little shop in Paraguay, it’s like going on a mini vacation! The decor is so cute and peaceful and they always have nice music to set the mood. The service is always friendly and very accommodating. Really I could not ask for more! Thank you, I love Paraguay!!! My family and I love you! ❤️
Always great flavors, small place, comfy and cozy. As a Latino that love sweet desserts, I had try the famous "Tres Leches" cake around the world, and here Ive found the cake that is in the top 3 of them all! Please try it, even with a full belly, you won't be able to stop after the first taste. Sopa Paraguaya (the only dry soup in the world), and if you are Italian or into pastas, please try their Gnocchi with beef sauce and tell me if you didn't tear a little after you did...
I decided to go because of a friend recommendation and I’m so happy that I took it, I mean, such a cozy authentic place! Food was delicious and I really felt connected with Paraguay’s culture, bunch of origin products and a well designed menu in my opinion. If anyone in New York wants to have a taste if Paraguay’s gastronomy this is the spot! And the best part was the service, Rita took care of my table and she was stunning, so radiant and clever on the suggestions. Had the guava alfajor after she recommended and I loved it! Thanks Rita!
I Love Paraguay Restaurant is a fantastic spot for a date night. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious culinary choices, and I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed some of the best food I’ve ever tried there. It's a perfect place for a relaxed, flavorful dining experience.
The food was absolutely delicious. We tried their traditional appetizer platter, and it was very flavorful. The vori vori soup is filling, and has chicken that falls right off the bone. Highly recommended
Amazing! This place was so cute, the food was tasty and excellent, hospitality was perfection. Hosts gifted me with a free yerba mate during my meal. Do yourself a favor and check them out. We will be back!
Everything was amazing. The prices compared to how much food we got and the quality was very good. Picanha was amazing The big meat platter is always my favorite Cocido latte is my new favorite drink
The best Paraguayan food I’ve ever had. The Dulce de Mamón brought me back home. Amazing food and service, such reasonable prices! The harp gave a charm!
Really nice restaurant with a awesome vibe. They had a musician come by playing the harp and definitely made the highlight of the night. The chicken sandwiches were really good and the empanadas were really nice. I'd go back.
The restaurant offered a truly enjoyable dining experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed meal. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff who were knowledgeable about the menu. Each paraguayan dish was prepared with skill and care, showcasing fresh ingredients and delightful flavors. Overall, the restaurant exceeded expectations, leaving a lasting positive impression.
Absolutely loved this place - everything from the food, to the service, to the homey local restaurant atmosphere was perfect. The chipa and cocido were delicious as are their empanadas. Our waitress Rita was such a sweetheart and so knowledgeable, would definitely come back! Saludos❤️
Rita was the best! It was our first time coming here and she was so nice to explain all the items, give great recommendations, and she was the nicest person. The food was bomb and I would 10000000% go back, this place is a 10/10.
Rita was amazing! And absolutely fashionable! Great service and beautiful dinning! Highly recommend the white sangria.
Delicious food with friendly service. The empanadas and the yucas were light and tasty. The cultet for two was more than enough for two. Everything wasn't greasy at all which I applaud.Sometimes you really wish the food wasn't as oily and this place delivered. Other reviewers recommended the Chipa Guazu and I recommend it as well! It's like a creamy corn filled bread. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Very good service, excellent food, and great flavor. We traveled from New Jersey just to eat there.
I never had Paraguay food and I am so happy to have tried this spot. They have DELICIOUS and fresh empanadas! My favorite is the spinach and cheese empanada. The beef with egg, chicken with egg, and cheese empanadas are AMAZING. They also have a mini empanadas sampler option with 3 croquettes. Definitely recommend coming here for empanadas. I am sure their other items on the menu are just as good.
Very nice family owned restaurant in Sunnyside. They offer typical Paraguayan food and the prices are very decent. We shared the chipa guazu (cheese corn soufflé), a mix of empanadas - beef, ham and cheese and chicken, the Picada de Carne y Chorizo and dessert and the food was delicious and more than enough for three people.
I visited this restaurant for the first time and ordered the milanesa with ham and cheese. It was absolutely delicious! The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff, and the atmosphere was beautiful. To top it off, the tres leches was incredible—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Definitely worth it!
It was awesome! Lovely place, nice service and love the atmosphere with the jazz music in the background. I haven’t eat alfajores for a long time so finally try some here, the size is pretty big and was delicious. We got a traditional combo, a delicious soup for the day and the rice with meat which I expected the sauce to be more thinner, but still delicious.

We ordered delivery and got the filet mignon sandwich. We ordered 6 and everyone loved them. We got some of the deserts and had mixed opinions on them, but we always love to try new things.
I didn't actually went to eat at this place but I been doing order online for many of their products. I been ordered chipitas of many of the brand they offered from Paraguay and also from the ones …

Yes we love the food. The service is great. The ambiance is great plus extra harp entertainment. It was an enjoyable lunch meal with my family.
Best empanadas in town. Great for delivery. Lovely place to dine in. The ambiance is but the food isn't fussy. Harp guy might even be there, if you're lucky!
Lovely spot for Paraguayan food. We started with empanadas and 4-cheese yucca flatbread. I got the chicken with egg, cheese and avocado sandwich, and my partner got the steak (filet mignon) sandwich,…

Delicious and authentic Paraguayan food! We really enjoyed the experience and the flavors. The only downsides are that the space is quite small and the interior doesn't have the most inviting atmosphere for dining in. That said, the food quality and friendly service makes up for some of that shortcomings. Highly recommend giving it a try at least once.
I love this place! I’m gonna give 4 starts this time because since I don’t live in NYC I try to stop by every time I’m in town for work and this time I did the same, wanted to get a puchero since it was a chilly and cloudy day. I waited for puchero day on their soup menu and when I got there they were “out” of it. I believe it to be true of course, the sever was super nice and all but I think if you’re out of it, you make more. Especially if you’re are in the customer service industry, and especially with food. Flavor here is always good, a little overpriced but I think going there every one in a while is totally worth ir. I ended up just getting mbeju with cocido which was very tasty!

Charming place, large portions, but have to be honest most of the items are quite bland. Meat is dry and overcooked, potatoes yucca unseasoned just masses of starch. Have been to many other similar South American grilles that offers tender juicy steak, very disappointed in the offerings.
The restaurant is lovely, cozy and beautiful decorated, the staff is gentle and super charm, also the food is good and the meat is great! I’ve been dinned couple times there and always had a great time, however, it turns a bit uncomfortable when the gentlemen with the harp starts. He’s is incredible talented and a good singer, but he gets too close to the tables when singing and playing the harp and it gets too loud, imposible to hear the person in front of you, also the place is not super big, which makes the beautiful music louder and louder till the point that no conversation can be handled. The restaurant is a great option in Sunnyside, you don’t see Paraguayan food often everywhere.
