Review: Santa Fe Steakhouse Forest Hills


For a local Mexican restaurant in Forest Hills NY, we decided to come here to eat their diverse menu. The menu ranges from grazers (appetizers), ribs & combos, south of the border specialties and burgers/sandwiches which provides everyone plenty of options. We tried the wild onion appetizer ($7.95) which is a large plate of onion rings with a spicy ketchup/mayo dip. Yum! The entrees were good as well but unfortunately we were so full from the bread and tortilla chips to fully enjoy it!

Jander ordered the rib combo with chicken and sweet potatoe fries. The fries were delicious but the ribs were only so-so. Might as well go to Dallas BBQ if you are in the mood for barbeque wings! I ordered the Cozumel Shrimp ($19.95) which is your basic bbq'ed grilled shrimp over a bed of rice and served with a side of steamed vegetable. All the entrees come with the cornbread which I wish was served warm.

Sadly, we didn't have room for dessert so I cannot comment on that. Overall, the restaurant seemed like a popular hang-out for the locals. There are constantly new restaurants in the area but this one has been around for a while.

I concur, it's not a special occasion place. Just a local joint for quick grub. =)
