Welcome to Cafe Con Amor

“ I haven't called, Cafe con amor, of late or placed any orders recently! BUT: I am very happy however, to see that it survived the Global Pandemic of COVID-19, & it's still: OPEN for business! I do remember meeting, the owner, & he was very pleasant. He was a Hispanic Immigrant, but I don't remember from what country. In my opinion, he had created a great Fonda, on Roosevelt Ave., that was worth visiting or at least calling! Before the Pandemic, I would go out practically every day, & I would sometimes see him, sitting outside his small restaurant. My best wishes to him, & his staff! The restaurant business, is not an easy way of making a living! Salud Y Suerte! :) NYC. ”

“ The chicken tenders are the perfect amount of crispy on the outside and juicy meat on the inside. You've GOT to try these. These crinkle cut fries never disappoint paired with bbq sauce and ketchup you'll be asking for seconds and maybe even thirds ”

“ It's a nice little cafe by the Woodside 61st train station. Stopped in here for a quick bite. The guy working was nice and told us to sit anywhere. The place was empty, thinking it's more of a to go spot. I ordered the steak burrito bowl and my daughter got pasta. Food was average but can't complain! The platanos on the side were pretty good and made up for it. I think this is more of a breakfast spot so we'll be back to try it out. ”

“ Cafe Con Amor is one of those consummate neighborhood spots that try to do a little bit of everything. They're not exactly a diner or a dedicated coffee spot, but a casual eatery with a semi-beefed up menu. After making my way here fairly often in the last year, I can attest they are certainly worth a look. As expected, this is a small'ish cafe with fairly generous but limited seating. (#1) The interior is simple, with a constantly changing menu on chalkboard for all to see. Given that dining in isn't an option at the moment, I'm pleased to note that they do offer takeout and delivery. One thing that immediately attracted me to their menu was the notion of an "all day breakfast." (!) We're talking biscuits and gravy, omelettes, breakfast burritos, pancakes, huevos rancheros, and even avocado toast as just one of many things they serve. I am definitely a person that enjoys breakfast for dinner and this place can fulfill that need with ease (and amor!). They also have a good variety of salads, sandwiches, wraps, wings, and even pasta and Latin inspired dishes like chicken milanese, quesadillas, and bistec a la Mexicana. The variety is impressive, but most of the food is not earth shattering. It's good enough to keep cravings at bay, but not enough to satiate one. (#2) I really did expect more from their drink selection, but the choices are limited to La Colombe Coffee and a standard variety of juices, teas, and such. No latte art or fancy caffeinated drinks here. They lean on the food bit quite heavily, so in some regard it's more of a restaurant than anything else. For some Woodside residents, there may be an element of sticker shock as many of the items (appetizers, entrees, etc.) are in the $13-16 range. However, the one thing that propels them to 4 star range for me has been their customer service. There have been some delivery snafus and occasional food mishaps, but they're usually on it to correct it and do so with a smile. I appreciate their good intentions and notice that they've been doing their best to keep up with things over the last few years. I can see myself coming here again and hopefully trying something different and delicious. __________ (#1) A decent amount of people can certainly fit in here. But not *that* many ... (#2) If that makes any sense. ”

“ My love for Cafe Con Amor began on a day long ago when I was stranded at home with minimal breakfast food and both cars gone. I put my trust in the hands of Seamless and they recommended CCA as a good place for breakfast delivery. From that day, history was made. I constructed my go-to order that I will always get whenever I am visiting Woodside. The sourdough toast with butter is a crunchy, soaked perfection that awakens my taste buds and preps my stomach for what's coming next. Their build your own egg sandwich is a solid choice and never disappoints. Egg whites and bacon on a roll will forever be my favorite combination. Finally, I wash it down with an iced Colombian coffee. Their delivery always says 30-40 mins, but I usually receive my food in about 20. I wish they were a smidge closer to Astoria so I would never have to make my own breakfast again. ”
