Cafe Xochimilco

Been here a few times, the food is good and authentic and the staff is friendly and welcoming. I love the atmosphere and the nostalgia it brings me of growing up Mexican.

I drop by here all the time for a jugo de jamaica or their chilaquiles . I always get treated like family and they never disappoint. Their smoothies are also very good.

Mexican-run place on 38 Av. in Long Island City. It serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with local and typical Mexican dishes. The service is friendly and the hostess very nice. Visited for breakfast with abundant and tasty dishes. Good price.

This is some of the best food of any kind l've had in my 45 years living in NYC. Honestly, it's amazing, chef Jose is delightful and his dishes are so nuanced and delicious. Octopus tostados are heavenly, I have no idea what all it consist of but they are delicious. There are three, I can't eat more than two but the last is always enjoyed by someone else at the table. Burrito are a staple for my lunch/dinner... so fresh and comforting. AND I'm not really a fan of most Mexican food but this is on a whole other level. I just finished a salad of shrimp, avocado, mango, cherry tomato, with paper thin fennel shredded on top. The shrimp are cooked to perfection, not rubbery at all but ever so slightly firm and succulent. I live in Manhattan and there isn't anything near me as delicious and fresh. Its really a special place.
