What Wendy Jackson dislikes about La Vecina:
The food was excellent. It was so fresh. The server was fairly attentive. The music was a bit too loud for conversation But that wouldn’t stop me from going back to this fantastic restaurant View all feedback.

Everything is good, but try the sancocho and let me know. Just fire so good.
I had already ate here in other occasions and the food was pleasant, fresh and tasty, the waitresses always provided good customer service and the restaurant itself it’s aesthetically pleasing, spacious and clean. This past Sunday night however, I was extremely disappointed with the food I was served; pechuga empanizada breaded chicken) to begin with the chicken portion has been shrunken to half, it was locking freshness and taste, the rice was not fresh at all; some pieces were hard to chew and others felt like old rice, the beans were okay and the fries did not feel fresh or crunchy. Additionally I ordered maduros with melted cheese on the side and they were extremely burnt, not soft and not sweet, as of the cheese it did not feel melted rather stiff. Could have been a change in the chef or the quality of the food but I left feeling very disappointed with what I paid.

“La Mejor Noche de Mi Vida – GRADUATION LEGENDARY STATUS ” Si no estuviste en mi fiesta de graduación en La Vecina (Astoria, NY)… lo siento por ti. This wasn’t just a party—it was a whole cinematic universe powered by reggaetón, tequila, and pure joyful chaos. Desde que entré, la vibra fue pura magia. The lights hit just right, the music was flowing, and my people? Looking like the Met Gala had a baby with a bachata video. Los tragos? Crafted with heavenly precision—como si el bartender fuera San Pedro sirviendo en las puertas del cielo. La comida? An explosion of sabor that had everyone licking their fingers and asking “¿QUIÉN COCINÓ ESTO DIOS MÍO?” Y la música…. Una mezcla perfecta de dembow, perreo, y clásicos pa’ la tía. A dancefloor where zapatos were sacrificed and reputations were born. And yo… I was the MAIN CHARACTER. Surrounded by gente que me ha apoyado desde el primer día, I celebrated not just a degree—but every late night, every struggle, and every damn win. Patricia fue la mejor.
