Queens Birria Quesadillas and Frozen Margaritas on a Terrace
Order green chicken enchiladas from a family cookbook, then sip mango or passion fruit drinks at happy hour.
🌴 The Queens setup
Las Catrinas leans into a Tulum mood on Broadway. Chef Leopoldo Tapia cooks from a family cookbook, with green chicken enchiladas, burritos, and machetitos alongside crispy birria quesadillas and frozen margaritas that anchor the menu.\n\nInside, a small bar keeps the room cozy, while the outdoor terrace opens the scene up for happy hour. The drinks follow a fruit forward line, with mango, coconut, and passion fruit in the mix. A menu built around bright fruit flavors keeps the mood lively beside the richer food. That means the outdoor terrace fills up during happy hour, giving dinner a natural second act without leaving the neighborhood.\n\nThe name nods to José Guadalupe Posada and La Calavera Catrina, adding a little visual history to the easygoing Queens setting. Build a spread around one main dish, add a frozen pour, and let the evening take its time. The compact setup works for a focused meal, then leaves room for another round.
