Enjoyed good times after seeing a local movie with friends. The drinks were pretty good (not good with the names) and the appetizers were just ok. This one seems to be a chain, which is a red flag for me.!!!! I doubt that the owner is latin. I find that real latin restaurants taste much better. More homemade from the heart. The hostess seated us right away and our waiter was good too. One short man seemed very upset at something ( maybe manager?) and it was very unprofessional, However, the place has a fun vibe to it, people there seemed to be having a good time. I have lived in Forest Hills my whole life and I know it takes little to please the locals, we are used to mediocre. The salad was their best and the biggest size ever, however the desserts were AWFUL. We ordered 3 out of like 6 and not one was good. A above-mediocre place to eat in Forest Hills.\r

There is a new Mexican place that taste great on Metropolitan ave( also in FH)...try them! The name is Elias or Elian something like this. The food was so good, fresh and very ""authentic Mexican"". This new place may be the best Mexican in Queens!!!!!!!and the vibe is more cabana casual, PRICES WERE GOOD. \r
On Metropolitan there is also a great Argentian restaurant and both places are run by Latin people and owned. The Argentinian place is pricier but the steak there was sooooo gooood! Tender, juicy and the room has a more formal look. \r
The food at both was just Amazing. This gives me hope for the future of food in Forest Hills!!!\r
Also, Pio Pio on Woodhaven where the Peruvian chicken will make you a believer !!!
