Casa Enrique

Great Brunches in Queens

"Holding the title for the only Michelin-starred restaurant in the borough, Casa Enrique is one of the best restaurants in Queens. When it comes to the food, "One can literally taste the regions and cities that chef Cosme Aguilar’s amazingly complex menu explores—including his own childhood recipes to honor his mother’s memory," according to inspectors. "Start your meal with hearty rajas con crema, combining none-too-spicy poblanos with sweet, fresh corn, Mexican sour cream and cheese served alongside a stack of fresh and slightly toasty tortillas." Then move on to options like huevos con chorizo, which features scrambled eggs with homemade chorizo, beans, queso, potatoes and roasted poblano peppers." - Aaron Hutcherson
