Every mexican place I've been to tastes the same on long island. This place though.....Insane. Even the hot sauce has this is unique, it has this idk... smokiness to it.
Just go, everything is good. -

We ordered take out tonight. The food wasn't that good. I ordered 3 different hard tacos. When I opened the package there was 4. The chicken taco was cold as was the 2 steak tacos and the very soggy ground beef. The cheese was the pre shredded kind with the powder coating that wasn't melted. The only one that tasted any good was the ground beef but the shell was soggy.
The chicken enchilada was terrible too. The chicken nacho was just OK and I think my daughter was being kind.
I was in a few months ago tried 3 different empanadas. They were terrible. I thought things had improved with all the stars but I was WRONG!!! I will never go here again. Then they add the most expensive taco to the order!!! -

I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. I ordered the ground beef burrito, guacamole, and chips. The ground beef was seasoned perfectly. So much flavor and they give you so much food. I have plenty left over for another night. I will definitely be going back here. Two thumbs up!

I discovered this place quite by accident and I'm so glad I did because it is now one of my favorite lunch spots in the cold weather. Some background: I love soup, but most restaurants serve soup as a "starter," and not as an actual meal. The soups at Mi Pueblo are most definitely a MEAL. That seems to be true of most of the Latin American restaurants I've patronized on Long Island but Mi Pueblo stands out amongst them all so far.
The first time I came here, I ordered the Mondongo. I'm familiar with the Dominican version of this tripe soup but Mi Pueblo's interpretation (I'm assuming Salvadoran?) is a bit more fiery than the Dominican variety. Not SUPER hot, but definitely puts a tingle on your tongue. As I was leaving, my waitress said I had to try their seafood soup (sopa de mariscos) next.
So, on my next visit, that's exactly what I had. And getting a bit ahead of myself, this was my FAVORITE soup. A creamy but zesty soup base loaded with shrimp, squid, clams, mussels and half a Maine lobster! Again, as I was leaving, I was told to try the beef soup next.
So, on my next visit, I ordered the beef soup (sopa de res). A rich, beefy broth and very filling I had a hard time keeping my eyes open when I got back to the office that afternoon. I mentioned to my waitress that I'd had the mondongo, seafood and beef soups so she told me to try the chicken on the next visit.
When I did manage to get back a couple of weeks later, the chicken soup (sopa de gallina) was exactly what I ordered. This was more "Chicken AND soup" as it was a quarter roasted chicken served with a big bowl of hearty vegetable soup. I tore the chicken apart with my hands and added the meat to the soup (I don't think this is the traditional way to do it, but it's the way *I* did it) before eating.
I recommended this place to a friend on Facebook. She tried the sopa de mariscos and declared it her new "favorite restaurant." It doesn't look like much from outside but give it a try. It's WONDERFUL. Looking at their online menu, there is apparently a "shrimp soup" that I've yet to try. They also have taco specials on Tuesday but I haven't yet had all of their soups so that'll have to wait. -

This is a Kings park gem. Everything I have ever gotten from here has been delicious and authentic. They have a wide variety to choose from and it is a great place to go with families! They are always accommodating, the staff is always sweet and the food and prices are excellent. If you haven't tried this yet you really need to! I highly recommend the empanadas. So delicious.
