El Rico Tinto

Wifey and I have come here several times with our infant (they have child seats!) and have never been disappointed with their food. The decor is nicely done and it has a nice quiet atmosphere. The food is plated beautifully and reasonably priced. We're torn because we want the business to flourish, but we also don't want it to get too noisy.

It is located in Northern Boulevard, this modern to Mexican cuisine is a refreshing approach to what is normally seen in Queens, NY. I wanted to make sure I chose an ideal place for my parents, the true representatives of Puebla, Mexico, since the early 1970s, and Google Maps gave me this place. The place is a little dark as you enter. The main attraction is a projector and 80 feet screen showing the local NY1 news?! How about an old movie of Cantiflas or Pedro Infante for nostalgic purposes. As for the food, the tacos were cold, the mole sauce was fine, and the meat, cooked medium well, was acceptable. My mom wished for more of the sauce on her serving, I believe this is because her tacos were cold as well. Overall, this place has the potential to be a great dining area with some improvements.

The food here is PHENOMENAL.. soooo insanely good and I loved the presentation. The prices are very fair, too. I’d recommend this for family meals or even date night. There was not one thing we ordered that wasn’t mouthwatering.

ERT, a long-standing staple of Jackson Heights keeps knocking it out of the park! Proof that because you’ve been around for awhile doesn’t mean you stop caring what comes out of your kitchen!!

The beautiful presentation is only surpassed by the flavors within. A clean, well appointed dining room and friendly staff make you want to keep coming back.

I was a loyal customer of their shop at the former location, and so glad they upgraded to this new space. Easily one of the best authentic Latin/Mexican restaurants in the city, super friendly staff, fresh ingredients, great flavors and spiced just right with a fantastic presentation on the plate. It's a family run business .... Victor is super friendly and his brother Fernando, the chef, is a master.

Our favorites are the Huevos 'Divorciados' for breakfast, and the Enchiladas for dinner. We also have had the Salmon, presented beautifully with a crisp jalapeno flatbread, and Shrimp Vera Cruz for dinners. Great fresh Guacamole too, made to order!
