Rincon Criollo

Reviewed By lviera44

Was very impressed how good the good was. My daughter had the chicaron de pollo and she usually doesn't eat that but she loved it. Very friendly and attentive staff. Very clean and nice environment inside. Food is great. Only complaint is they only take cash

Jardin De China

Reviewed By JamieNYC

This place, on the Corona-Jackson Heights border, serves Chinese and Latin American food. The Chinese-looking servers speak Spanish, as well as English. I suspect they speak Chinese too, but I'm not sure.I was here for lunch today (a Saturday) and ordered sesame chicken from the combination platters menu. It came with rice (I chose "mixed fried") and a choice of either fries, plantain or egg roll (I chose fries). I think the price was $13.25 but I'm not sure. I added a bottle of Coors Light for $3.50. The total with tax came to $18.25. I was served a complimentary basket of bread.The food was all very good. The platter is served with all of the food on one plate: rice on one side and chicken on the other, with fries dumped in the middle (on top). I would have preferred separation between dishes, but I can say that the portions were still generous. My sesame chicken was in a batter, kind of like mini-funnel cakes. The sesame sauce was a bit tart and gave the chicken great flavor.The interior is large and clean, with mostly booths, which is nice. It is kind of like a Chinese diner atmosphere. The walls and booths are in white and red, with red Chinese lanterns hanging from the ceiling. There were a lot of customers and the table talk drowned out the sound of the music that I could faintly hear being piped in.

Ordered once with a group of coworkers (about 10 of us). This place came highly recommend by one of my coworkers. We ordered take out. I wasn’t super hungry so i just ordered a Cuban sandwich. My coworkers all ordered various entrees. By the time we finally got back to work, and I was able to eat the Cuban-it was soggy. Also, I thought the pork in my sandwich was too fatty. Most of my coworkers enjoyed their food, but whoever ordered anything with pork on it complained it was too fatty and/or oily. I also tried some plantains one of my coworkers ordered. I thought they were super dry and kind of flavorless.I may give them another shot if the opportunity presents itself, but by no means ever going out of my way again to order from here.

Cabana

My entire dining experience was fantastic! The ambiance to the excellent customer service & scrumptious food I must say this restaurant is A1. Our server Diego was truly the personification of class & professionalism, nothing was to big a task and his dining choices were on point! I had the red snapper which was nothing short of delicious along with the turmeric rice and black beans, I also tried the steak which was . Would I return definitely, would I recommend ABSOLUTELY!!
