Definitely one of my favorite places in Staten Island! Thanks to el flaco and Diana, they are super kind and always treats me like family! 🫶🏼

I had passed by La Tuna Restaurant (Even though it has the La Catracha sign in the window, the menus say La Tuna) several times when I parked to grab a slice from Brother’s Pizza across the street, and the restaurant always seemed to be filled with people, some of them dancing from time to time. This time as I passed the restaurant, i stopped to look at the menu in the front window, and one of the folks in the restaurant came outside to see if I would like a menu and to come in.
I am glad that I took an opportunity to try the place. I had the Enchiladas Rojas for twelve dollars and my friend had a burrito for eight.
The food is simple, tasty and filling.
The portions are generous.
As decor goes, the restaurant is pretty sparse.
There are only about eight tables in the restaurant, and a small bar area that seats four folks.
The restaurant is very much geared to be a local restaurant serving a Hispanic crowd, but I never felt unwelcome. While there is a bit of a language barrier with some of the staff if you don’t speak Spanish, the warmth of service more than makes up for it.
I recommend this place for a quick and tasty sit down meal.

Its a Nice spot if you want to feel and taste a bit of of Mexico 🇲🇽 and Honduras 🇭🇳!! Food was Amazing Service was appreciated and atmosphere was inviting and music playing while you eat definitely a plus! So check out La Tuna's (La Catracha) you won't be disappointed.
