El Manguito Deli - New Hyde Park

Great great little restaurant, never had any bad experience with the food or the staff.

I love ordering takeout from here. The Tacos de Pollo is my favorite, and the Baleadas from here are good too! The maracuya (passion fruit juice and horchata are beverages I would recommend.

Went to pick up some food and it would be a few more minutes. So I got a chance to watch them all preparing for the lunch rush. There's nothing like food that was prepared perfectly. These women should be proud if the job they do. It's easy to overlook the work that goes into freshly prepared. Incredible and I can't wait to go back. You owe it to yourself to try a restaurant in your own neighborhood that you didn't even realize was there and how good it was. I should of taken a picture of the food. No more smashed cheese burger from the big chains. Open your mind to ideas for lunch and try these small privately owned places. They take so much pride into their work. Many cultures see cooking as a privilege, this seems to be one of them.

No one, I mean no one makes a better grilled chicken. I've been searching for years. Look no further! Staff is incredibly friendly. Prices are super affordable and portions are fit for a King. Place is a bit messy though.

Stopped in to get lunch on a hot July afternoon. Ordered two pupusas (revuelto, beans and cheese with bell pepper; and one just cheese). They were delicious. Pupusas, the national dish of El Salvador, are made from corn masa, and stuffed, and these were superb. The service was very friendly, and I was charged two dollars for each. What a bargain! Do yourself a favor, and go. There's street parking, and it is worth a visit. Highly recommended.
