Fizzie W. • July 27, 2012The food is great! Sit down, stuff your face, and enjoy! The staff is friendly and they pay attention to every detail. Try their ceviches to start...

Mingster C. • January 21, 2015It's like being able to order lunch specials any time of the day! My favorites so far are the chicken nuggets and turkey burger combo. The portions are also very generous! This is a very small place.

Raven D. • September 14, 2018Salmon Macho is EVERYTHING! The arroz con pollo, a seeming staple, is extremely well done! Basically, if you’re craving a certain food, order it and chances are you will be more than satisfied!

Peter F. • March 25, 2018A refreshing change in a neighborhood predominantly filled with Indian food. Barlovento serves Latin cuisine from Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. Great drinks, great food.

JK • August 13, 2021Try empanadas stuffed with mushroom and spinach or filet and olives. Black rice with grilled prawn and fried calamari & double-cut pork chop

Elvis R. • November 26, 2023Authentic and homemade- fresh, simple and flavorful. Get the cevice, the Bandera (a plate consisting of all 3 of their well house dishes- tripe, ceviche and goat stew), flan and black berry shake!

Frank R. • April 18, 2012Guacamole needs a re do . Not a fan.

What's Good Here • October 9, 2014The Empanadas de Jueyes, fried patty stuffed with crabmeat, are delicious and have a crispy, flavorful crust. Beware though that the filling uses imitation crab like that found in California rolls.

Aditi • March 14, 2017Great mezcal drinks and margaritas - soon to be a neighborhood hit!

Elis F. • January 15, 2015The best peruvian restaurant in NY. El Matador is awesome and the guys are very kind also. I Love this place ❤️

Lauren V. • October 20, 2018Casual place for a quick lunch. Has great hot dish combos with 4 sides. Soup, sandwiches with a twist & empanadas are all good. The green sauce is where it’s at (spicy)

Byron • July 21, 2010Some of the best empanadas in all of Queens. Cant beat the $1 price. Don't be afraid to try the chicken ones too.

funky f. • June 13, 2016Great drinks. They make a great caipirinha, and totally try the salgadinhos for appetizers. For main course you can't go wrong with the sirloin steaks.
