El Chivito D'oro - Jackson Heights

Nice spot to try if you are craving steak different ways. The chivito is a sandwich. We had the steak version which was delicious. We also had the steak with sauteed onions. Great for this that love onions they were cooked to perfection! Portion size is big so you can definitely share.The staff is very friendly and attentive.

Food is good, but it is a lot of meat so it is a little too much for me. Papaya shake is pretty good. I also like their complimentary bread with chimichurri sauce. Portion is huge, price is a little expensive, but then again it's all meat so it makes sense.Food: 3/5

I am not writing this review to tell you what to do with your hard-earned money. I am going to share my thoughts and you make your own decision if you would like to try this place or not.I have been going to this place for many years now and it’s always good. Usually, I get the parrillada for two. It comes with some flank steak, beef sweetbreads, sausage/chorizo, beef ribs, bread, and two side orders which can include green plantain, sweet plantain, garden salad, fried cassava, delicious garlic fires with parsley, and others. The staff is friendly, and the place is always clean. If you go to this restaurant on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday be prepared to wait. If possible, try to go before dinner time or after 9:45 PM, and most likely you will not have to wait. The restaurant does not have a parking lot but there is a lot two blocks away and it’s only about $5.00 p/hour. Do not forget to ask for the chimichurri and tomato sauce. They are both amazing and will significantly enhance the flavor of your food and even bread. look at the picture for the tomato sauce.

Always great food. The parrillada para dos can feed up to 4 people. The staff is very friendly and efficient. I always go back here.

This is a very family-friendly spot with great food. It's not fancy, but it's cozy and comfortable—a little piece of South American life right in Queens! The parrillada, chivito, and lengua a la vinagreta are all amazing. Everything is fantastic! Food: 5/5
