Even after many days, it’s puzzling to me looking at the receipt. We ordered three dishes for two adults and one child for lunch. The restaurant charges $2 for not paying cash and added the 20% gratuity already. The burger was okay; salad was mediocre but did have big shrimps; steak tacos were on the burnt side. Service was okay – came about twice to refill water.

The food here was amazing! The service was quick, friendly, and professional. The atmosphere was fun and trendy. We ordered the chicken fajitas with rice and beans as well as the mole short rib enchiladas with rice and beans. Everything was seasoned perfectly! Our food was hot, fresh and very delicious. I would recommend this spot for a nice family outing or cute date night with a loved one. We will definitely be back here soon! 10 out of 10!

I ate here with my son, and the atmosphere and food were great!
The service was okay, but it was more of a “What do you want” service model. There was no welcome or conversation. Once we ordered food, the server did not come back to check on us ever, and we never got refills on our water. I ended up having to flag down the waiter to pay the check.
Service aside, the food was very good. I had a shrimp burrito, and my son had a chicken quesadilla. We also ordered the guacamole, which was quite good as well. The chips were not fresh, but they were used as merely a vessel for the guac, and the taste of the guac overshadowed the dull chips.
Be prepared for a pricey experience, but it should be expected as it’s in LIC close to the water. I will try this place again for the food, but most likely, I will just order takeout in the future.

We’ve been living in the neighborhood for almost six months now, and while we don’t come weekly, this is one of those places we keep coming back to about twice a month because it never misses.
Skinny’s somehow manages to make you feel like you’re on vacation while still delivering NYC-level great food. The vibe is lively but cozy at the same time, relaxed, welcoming, and full of good energy. It works just as well for a casual weekend meal, a date night, drinks at the bar, or bringing friends along.
The food is the real star for us. The queso fondido is an absolute must and something we order every single time, along with their quesadillas. The quality and consistency are always there, and portions feel right to generous. Prices are fair, and it’s a place we genuinely trust to be good every visit.
Drinks are fantastic. The Paloma is a go-to, and we recently tried El Dragon and immediately fell in love. Margaritas are balanced, flavorful, and a little dangerous in the best way. Pablo behind the bar deserves a special mention because his drinks are always on point.
The staff is friendly, warm, and accommodating, and we’re at that point where we feel like regulars, which always makes the experience even better.
Skinny’s has become one of those spots that makes the neighborhood feel like home. Delicious food, great energy, and a place we’re always happy to return to.
Update: big shoutout to the team, cause they always make us feel like family. We don’t know everyone’s names, unfortunately, but Diana and Pablo and FANTASTIC!

Food was OK but not anything memorable. Atmosphere was dated with good music that was a little too loud to hold a conversation. I went with the family so probably not the venue for young kids. Highlight were the servers. Everyone was happy, helpful and provided prompt service. The tip was added into the bill. Chicken tacos were marked as $16 on the menu but the bill charged $17. Drinks were great especially the spicy tequila ones.

Stopped by Skinny Cantina for a solo late lunch on a Sunday. Service was good and friendly.
The chips and salsa were a nice start, the sangria hit the spot, and the maduros were perfectly done—sweet and satisfying. The carne taco was decent but could’ve used a bit more flavor.
One thing to note: there’s an automatic 20% gratuity added to the bill, so keep an eye out for that. Overall, a solid spot for a casual bite and drinks.

Wow I really loved the food here it’s super hard to find a place where the food is full of flavors, and when me and my husband tried the tacos and the burrito it was super amazing! We got the veggie burrito and we didn’t expect much but it was super flavorful ! Enrique our server was super friendly and provided great service ! I just really love how authentic the food tastes here we will definitely be coming here again!
