**Beware of This Restaurant!**
My family and I had a terrible experience with Mexico Diner. We placed our order and paid online through their website, MenuStar, but when we arrived to pick up our dinner, they claimed they never received our order. They didn't take responsibility for the mistake, offer an apology, or even remove the faulty payment link from their site. To make matters worse, they suggested we place a new order and pay again! Now we have to contact our bank to request a refund. This is truly a disappointing and unprofessional establishment. Avoid it at all costs!.
What a hidden gem.. love the “Dimer”. Once you get passed the mis-matched fonts and misspelled words on some of their signage, you’ll realize this place makes some of the most amazing Mexican food in all of NYC. Their birria tacos are especially amazing. Not a fan of their back room with the TVs and wish overall they did more with the space. But the food is amazing.
Enchiladas Suizas with shrimp and Chiles Rellenos are both top notch.
Just delightful! Labor Day several places were closed so I ventured to the other side of Coney Island Ave. I had a frozen mango margarita and mole poblano. The mole poblano came with more then enough tortillas and rice and beans. Usually, I will add some hot sauce but not needed here. The mole was perfectly spiced with oodles of flavor. The rice and beans were perfection which I added to the mole heavenly. The salsa and chips were also fantastic. The chips had a nice salty taste and the salsa has a kick but not too spicy. After my fabulous meal I had coffee which was also nicely spiced. This place knows how to use spice that delights the taste buds. The coconut flan was awesome. Usually flan is very fluffy without a lot of body. This flan was light and fluffy and had body at the same time. Not overly sweet with good coconut flavor. The wait staff were friendly and helpful. Prices were very reasonable. The mole poblano was 18.95. Given we are in inflationary times where else can you have such a delicious dinner for this price. Can't wait to come back and try other dishes.
This little restaurant is everything I want from a Mexican joint. It’s super affordable, the flavors are authentic and the staff and the decor really make you feel as if you’re eating out in Mexico City. I would happily come back and try their breakfast one day. Pictured below is the Cemita, Horchata and order of tacos.
Delicious authentic food. Took a while to make, because they make it fresh!
