Cemitas El Tigre

Mexican restaurant · Sunnyside

"Located in Sunnyside, this casual counter-service spot is a must for sandwich lovers everywhere. The fried chicken cemita comes with perfectly crispy chicken layered with crunchy pickled red onions, avocado, black bean, Oaxacan cheese, lettuce, and tomato, with a thick swipe of mayo on a seeded bun. It’s a behemoth portion and a great deal for around $15." - Emma Orlow, Robert Sietsema
