Casa Enrique - Long Island City

OBSESSED WITH CASA ENRIQUE! My husband and I had the pleasure of visiting casa Enrique for our anniversary and it was just a beautiful experience....

Went here on February 7,2024. Location- A block away from the Vernon Jackson 7 train stop down a side street Interior- It is L shaped restaurant- not huge....

I'm not a big fan of Mexican food in general. I also went to Pujol few months ago and we were very disappointed with the food, $500 for 2 people, we...

What can I say about this restaurant that does it justice? First, this is very likely the most authentic Mexican place in NY and if you want to try the real local cuisine, this is a-must-try. Second, the menu offers and extraordinary selection of classic main dishes that you could find in every Mexican home and that is just magic, because that is an extraordinary piece of my beloved country. And third, the staff is absolutely kind and warm, open to give you any adviseabout food or help with some additional order. I adored the food, the place and the entire experience. Please come to Casa Enrique and enjoy the authentic Mexican food! Finally, I have only one suggestion for the chef to make this place110% real... in Mexico we need (typically) white bread (like sliced-bolillos) on the table with our breakfast as a must-have side. You see it if you visit any restaurant over there, they will give you a bread basket and maybe some butter.So please, consider adding this table-center at least for the eggs with mole.

A short ferry from Manhattan and you're there. Excellent food at reasonable prices. Everything is carefully made and the atmosphere there is pleasant. They do not make reservations, just waiting on the spot so you should arrive at 12pm or 19pm to find a table. Look at the pictures and do not miss this dessert!
