"This is one of our favorite places. I've been coming here for over 20 years. Well, this and the previous location. Still outstanding, but the best was when the family's grandmother was cooking when they opened. Same food, recipe, everything, but something was just better when she cooked. I usually get the same meal every time. The special Bistec a La Carreta (Number 1 on the menu for a reason LOL). It has this sauce on the steak with grapefruit and cilantro to die for. And the salsa is amazing!! My favorite of all time. Fresh and simple. But while i can usually recreate recipes from taste, this one has eludes me to this day. You have to get it from the source. And the house salad dressing on the salad this dish comes with is fantastic and I am not a fan of salad or dressing. Just try it! One time in the last 20 plus years they changed the dressing and I was grateful they changed back to the original on the next visit. The temporary dressing the one time, I did not touch the salad. I have tried other dishes on occasion, and they're all delicious. But always come back to the #1. The #2 is identical but with chicken for those who do not eat red meat. The secret is really the sauce. No joke. Parking: It is.in an old strip mall. Plenty of parking. Kid-friendliness: We always brought our kids. They have a kids menu. Sachin Papas (not sure on spelling). Grilled and sliced hot dogs. But damn! They are good! Also an appetizer. And the French fries. Wow Wheelchair accessibility: Parking and it is ground level. Lots of tables and wide approaches to restrooms."

"Update: Nothing has changed. Ordered online, arrived to pick it up order, and told that they haven't started on my order due to the online order company not calling them. They also said it's not their fault even though it's how you place an online orderthrough their website. I will no longer come here. Ever. The first experience was amazing. We ordered the Jalea de Pescado yMariscos and was delighted with an assortment of flavorful fried seafood. Their salsa criolla was a perfect topping as it wasfull of complimentary flavor. Service was slow but attentive. I could not tell you what else we ordered either because it wasovershadowed by the seafood or it was simply forgettable. Our second visit was all about the service, or lack there of. Wewaited 15 minutes to be seated, in a pretty empty establishment, all while being noticed but ignored. We waited 15 additionalunacknowledged minutes after being seated. We departed after a new set of customers arrived, ordered drinks, received saiddrinks, and placed their dinner orders. They were seated directly across from us. The third visit, about a year or so later,still dreaming of that amazing Jalea de Pescado y Mariscos, was most likely our last visit. In order to avoid their horrendousservice, we placed a takeout order online. Ordering online was pretty easy but the menu lacked pictures and/or enoughdescriptions. Upon arriving I was greeted with disdain as if my presence was annoying and unwanted. I was yelled at, not spokento. After politely asking for my paid for takeout order, they rudely finished packing my items. Jalea de Pescado y Mariscos wasabismal. Salsa de criolla's flavor was overpowered by lemon. The Pollo a la brasa was tasteless compared to the localcompetition. The Tallarines Verdes Con Milanesa tasted of store bought Alfredo and Pesto. Come here at your own risk. Good luck."

"Title: "An Unforgettable Feast of Peruvian Delights! "Review:Last night, I had the opportunity to dine at Riko Peruvian Cuisine, a gem tucked away in Jackson Heights. The establishment exceeded my expectations, providing a comfortable and welcoming environment laced with Inka decorations that heightened the authenticity of the experience.The eatery has a semi casual vibe, with disco balls hanging from the ceiling that sparkles and twinkle, adding a touch of magic to the ambiance. The space is furnished with large TVs and a fully stocked bar, which perfectly complements the cuisine and the overall atmosphere.I sampled the 'Pollo Saltado, ' a succulent chicken chunk sautéed with red onions and tomatoes over a bed of crisp French fries. The Aguadito Soup, a heartwarming Chicken Giblet Soup, is an excellent accompaniment for the fantastic evening. I had a refreshing Diet Coke, served chilled to perfection to wash it all down.The service was swift, cordial, and attentive a testament to their dedication to providing a remarkable dining experience. The servers were prompt, polite and took care of every request, embodying the spirit of customer service.Riko 's indoor and outdoor seating options allow patrons to choose according to their comfort; I was seated indoors. The music was just right a pleasant hum in the background that didn 't disrupt conversation.Notably, Riko offers a range of mouthwatering Peruvian specialties such as Pollo a La Brasa (Rotisserie Chicken), Ceviches, Jalea, Lomo Saltado, and more. You can also unwind with their famed homemade Sangrias and now Pisco Sour.Overall, Riko Peruvian Cuisine serves a memorable dining experience with its delicious food, swift service, and inviting atmosphere; I highly recommend this restaurant to any epicures craving an authentic Peruvian gastronomic adventure.I can 't wait to return and sample more from their tempting menu. Don 't miss out on this culinary treasure in Jackson Heights!"
