"No one accessorizes like Pronito. At this Colombian street food specialist in Elmhurst, you can grab a great, quick meal and fully express yourself with your choice of add-ons. If you want a plain cheeseburger, that’s perfectly fine. But wouldn’t you rather have one stuffed with ham, bacon, and crushed potato chips, with a little quail egg pinned to the top? This place also does fries, tostones, hot dogs, and arepas, all of which receive the avalanche-of-toppings treatment. Order at the counter, then find a seat at a communal high-top, and bring a stack of napkins for when you get pink sauce all over your face. photo credit: Kate Previte Food Rundown photo credit: Kate Previte Hamburguesa Prontitos When in Rome, get a massive burger that’s impossible to fit your mouth around. Prontito exists so you can eat such things, so take advantage. You’d think the ham, chips, cheese, and quail egg would be too much, but no. This is an exceptional late-night meal (Prontito is open until midnight), and it pairs well with an icy and equally excessive cholado." - Bryan Kim

"We envy Los Angeles for its bacon-wrapped Sonoran hot dogs with a shifting roster of toppings, and this Colombian snack shop in Elmhurst comes close to emulating them. Ask for “super perro a la Mexicana,” which comes with a strip of bacon on top, guacamole, coleslaw, jalapeños, cheese, potato chips, Russian dressing, pico de gallo, and — improbably — a quail egg impaled on a toothpick." - Robert Sietsema

THESE BURGERS ARE SOMETHING ELSE!!! Literally every bite is like biting a different burger...SOOO MANY FLAVORS!!! Wow that was an experience that words can't describe. Worth the wait for sure! I can't express how good this all was...when you invite your friends for a burger...just wait until they bite on this one!!! Recommend 10/10

The Colombian food was delicious exactly how I expect it to be. The staff was very nice when waiting for my food don’t forget to bring cash or they have a cash machine to use. Los Perros calientes con bacon tienen un sabor único De Colombia.

I arrived on a Tuesday night at 8 PM. Walk up to the window, place your order and they will call your name. It was a 30 min wait but it was pretty busy so it was ok. I ordered the extra large burger and by date ordered a dish that had chicharron (which was too hard), but the rest was delicious. My burger was also astounding, having chicken, sausage, bacon, meat, and cheese! The fries were ok. We had a smoothie that was delicious. The taste of the food overall was very good. The area to sit is not large. Many of the seats are not actual seats but tiny pieces of wood like a mini bar stool. But if you find a chair, take it! I want to try the hot dogs, salchipapa and other sandwiches.

Food was delicious and portions are big. We got salchipapa extrema and Mexican burger.

Best chicken burger of my life. This food tastes like what KFC copied when they try to make their chicken burgers. It's like if you took KFC food and made everything about it 50-100% better and used proper ingredients and put care into your cooking. Good portion sizes too. Worth a special trip for.

Open late for takeout. They don’t even make burgers this good in Colombia! This is definitely a cheat meal type of night, all toppings go on this burger and hotdog. 10/10 recommend.

Omg order two burgers and this burger is with mold. I'm feeling sick. Please be aware! Old bum Who knows what else is old. This is a negligence , how they miss the big mold spot. I'm never eating again here. It was wrap in aluminum fold and didn't saw until the end. Dios mio ordene dos hamburguesas y tiene moho, me siento enferma. Porfavor ponga mucha atención. Que más estará dañado, es una negligencia. Como no pueden ver el grand moho que ahí. No vuelvo a comer ahí. Gas! Estaba envuelto en papel aluminio, no me di cuenta hasta lo último.

You really can't go wrong with prontitos. They have such a big selection to choose from and each one is great. They do Colombian style fast food and fruit juices. You can get a fully loaded hamburger that can honestly feed two people. One of their hot dogs, which can also be made with chorizo. Their fries come with delicious sauces and chopped up hot dogs if you so wish. They have these incredible packed on arepas, my friend got the chicharron one and it was too good. The pork was perfectly crispy. I love that their hot dogs come with quail eggs, it's always a nice added bonus for me. Also the fries are always crispy. Be sure not to skip out on dessert. I really love their strawberries and cream (fresas con crema) and the Cholados are super popular. As for the service expect to wait a while but that's only because everything is being made fresh in this tiny kitchen. They are also always busy so be sure to be patient about it. They are cash only which can be a bummer but they do have an atm that charges a small fee. The ambiance is giving Colombian McDonald's for me. Theres a lot of color and a mural. Not too much seating so if you are with a big group expect to take your food to go. The music is always good and the vibe is exactly as it should be with the focus on the food.

Stopped here for a quick bite while I had an hour lunch. Most believe you can't go wrong with a burger, and while this is usually true, following the standard formula it's seasoning of the patty, the toppings, order of toppings, etc many things can go wrong. Here, the beef is well flavored and cooked well. The bacon was fried fresh yet not crispy, thats up to you and your preference. What bothered me was the delivery of hot lettuce. I picked it up myself and walked it 5 minutes, I figure it couldnt have been me, but to be served this sour wilted lettuce was such a turn off. I removed it from the burger after the initial bite, and after that it wasnt so bad. A little dry, easily fixed with a little ketchup. Overall, generously rating this as average. Don't get any lettuce or tomato, leave it to the protein and a drink.

Love their mango biche raspado. Service is overall good, but the reason I don't give a 5 star review is that they do not accept card transactions.

All the menu is amazing. The Colombian food has a delicious unique flavor from Colombia. The staff is very nice and the place is clean and gives you a very good service. Make sure to bring cash but they also have a cash machine.

I am a little late to the game here but had to post about this place. Is it tiny, yes! Good for the little ones nope not seating wise, is the food on my list of nom nom you are darn tooting it is!! Ok had the Hawaiian hotdog (yes cringe at the name) but the flavor is oh so good. Friends had the Hawaiian burger - same response. Everything is hot off the press you walk in you order; you sit and chat with friends; you grab the grub and enjoy! Now be sure to save room for dessert cause I mean cmon .. we all had the Super Cholado Con Helado and AHH!! It's so good (be careful of pitts from the fresh fruit) NOM NOM NOM NOM! Need I say more?

Service was slower on the night of a big game, understandable. Although, a couple of friends ordered food before hand with no line of customers waiting and it still took a while. This led me and my group to get simple drinks which cost $22. Two iced coffees and a lemonade should not cost that amount. Overpriced.

OMG I've seen this place before but never went inside, was nearby tonight and it was AMAZING. Prices are not bad because the portions are huge. Mexican burger was delicious and huge and so it was the salchipapa extrema. To be honest I still haven't finished the salchipapa as I write this post, service was good, food is made right in front of you, nice little place with a relaxing ambiance. if my words are not enough to convince you, maybe a picture of my face after taking that first burger bite will tell you more

I absolutely love Prontitos. They have the best Colombian hotdogs, cholados, empanadas you name it. And the people who work there are so nice! The vibe is super Colombian and fun. I love coming here, the only downside is that it is cash only, so if your working with card I do recommend ordering on Grubhub or ubereats to take it to go. But it's one of my favorite places!

My #1 place in NYC! Let's rap! Don't stay home getting fat on FRITOS Hot pockets & overstuffed BURRITOS Wanna stuff yourself? Here's what WE CHOSE Cholados y Burgesas at PRONTITOS! Fox E says it's great, and we all know HE KNOWS The best hidden gems, everywhere that HE GOES Summer brings humidity and MOSQUITOS But also an excuse to go to PRONTITOS! Trump's Twitter? Kinda obvious why he'd TWEET THOSE Distract us from evil with melodrama FREAK SHOWS So the rich get richer while the puppet-state VETOS Time for you and I to drown our sorrows at PRONTITOS! Other Cholados are less Michael, more TITOS More Detroit-back-alley, less VIA VENETOS The rivals ability to COMPETE BLOWS Compared to the perfection served here at PRONTITOS! Liverpool were so good, but Watford? Couldn't BEAT THOSE And I'm so good in bed, anyone hot and DISCRETE KNOWS And Barbie's global-famous for her incomparable FEET/TOES And if you're in New York, head directly to PRONTITOS! WHAT! The Cholado. The greatest drink/dessert on earth. You'd agree, if you'd tried one - specifically, this one. A "Cholado" is fresh tropical fruits, condensed milk, freshly-shaved ice, passion fruit syrup, and other heavenly wonders. I get mine with no condensed milk and extra passion fruit, I also skip the Guanabana in the drink. I love it more that way but if you're a fan of condensed milk then get it the regular way, or try it both ways, like Barbie does. This is still the best place in all of NYC, after all these years. Prontito used to be located on an even more-hidden back street and named "Jugos Prontito Y Algo Mas", but those are the distant days of the past. They have a shiny new place with 10 times the space, they're even busier because of it (which seemed unthinkable because the tiny little sweatbox of the old days was busier than you could possibly imagine), and they're still churning (sometimes literally) out the greatest Colombian Fruit Delights and Hot Dogs and Burgers anywhere. I'm proud to call the owner and the girls here my friends. Order a Cholado. Watch the dude shave the ice, it's brilliant! "Shaving the ice" is not a euphemism for anything. When I first had a Cholado, it was like, Wham! So, in honour of that, here's some Wham! You put your condensed milk in my mouth (ooh ooh) It tastes so good and creamy that I have to cry out You put the soursop into my drink (yeah yeah) It's the only fruit in there I don't like, I think But something's buggin' me, somethin' ain't right, My Yelp friend told me what Barbie did last night, She left me Yelping in my bed, I was posting but I should have been with her instead! Wake Me Up Before Jugo, go Don't leave me hanging on eating a Yoyo Wake me up before Jugo, go And no, the Colombians are not all high Wake me up before Jugo, go Cuz I'm planning on my own Cholado And a Raspado from Jugos Prontito Take me drinking tonight.. I want a sugar hiiiiiiiiiigh, yeah, yeah Now I'm feeling shy. Next time I'll have to come here "Jugos Incognito." What to get: Cholado What else: Jugos, Burger, Hot Dog, Arepas, More. Warning: Long waits, call ahead, even for drinks. They're opening a shop in Alaska soon, it's called Juneau Prontito. It's "sandwiched" between two mixed martial arts schools (Judo Prontito and Sumo Prontito). The Cholado here is my fave food item on earth. They deserve "Kudos Prontito." I've tried many others. None have come close to this. It's from another, distant, planet. Hence the name "Pluto's Prontito." Always call ahead. "Prontito" is an in-joke. It means fast, but orders are seldom quick at Prontito (except the spontaneous orgasmic cumbustion when you taste a Cholado). But it's part of the charm. I've taken friends & lovers here, all agree: it rocks. Famous Colombians Sofia Vergara, James Rodriguez, Shakira and Carlos Valderrama come daily. $6 is so worth it. Don't be "Frugal Prontito," you'll miss out on perfection. And no "Medellin" with the recipe. Want our first date to be here? We can "Cholado & Chill." Cali me maybe? Short version of review: "Go to Queens. Get Cholado. Taste his delicious creamy nectar in ur mouth. Explode in pants. Pix or didn't happen. Also send nudes to whoever sent u here. Then home. Then sleep. Then wake up. Then repeat." As a side note, I found my lovely little Sammi Puff aka The Puffle aka my tiny little Grey Tortie kitten full of Tortitude when taking a new back way to this place, as weirdly suggested by google maps. She ended up lighting up our lives and the lives of our 5 male cats, who think she's the best think since sliced Cholados. So thank you, Prontito. Let's finish with more rap. Want the best Cholado? This is the ONE-TITO Get here in a hurry before they're GONE-TITO Better to order ten than NONE-TITO Because the best dessert in Queens is PRONTITO Colombian street food is the BOMB-TITO Bigger than Avengers, bigger than TRON-TITO Bigger than Curry, Jordan, LeBron-TITO If you want fruity drinks, get yourself to PRONTITO WHAT!

One of the top colombian fast food stops always have been. Their cholados a phenomenal and you cant go without getting them with everything in it including guanábana!

I went here not too long ago and was overall disappointed with the services. The waiter had an attitude, that seemed like it was unrelated to me and I was the one to receive the back end of it. Food wasn't terrible but probably won't be returning.

Yelp
We came here last weekend (not our 1st time). The place is a casual sit down spot, serving Columbian fast food. Ordered the hot dog w/ everything, an arepa, a mango shake, & fries. Everything was made well. The hot dog was difficult to eat though; it broke apart easily. I think I might ask if they could grill the hot dog next time, instead of boiling it. Overall, not bad. *recommend: cholados

I tried parking in front of this juice spot and the owner pulled up behind me and started screaming profanities at me in Spanish. He said that this is his parking spot and that his worker was saving it for him. I tried explaining that it's a public spot and I was there first, but he didn't care. Wouldn't ever come back or recommend it given the owner's screaming at me and racist comments.

When you first walk in and your nose tingles from the flavorful aroma of the food being cooked you already know you are in for a good time. I recommend getting the prontito burger which is basically just a standard Colombian burger which is nothing like an American one. This burger comes with things like pineapple sauce, a pink sauce, bacon and a boiled quail egg that's stabbed on top of the burger with a toothpick. Id get a raspado which is shaved ice with blackberry syrup, passion fruit syrup and actual passion fruit, lime juice and condensed milk. Or a cholado which is the same thing but with fruit. They put soursop as one of the fruits and id try it if I never had it before. With all these items you get a very authentic Colombian experience. You also get a very Colombian experience speaking with the workers because they are very friendly and helpful. The decorations inside also make you feel like your in Colombia so overall I recommend this spot for some really good Colombian food.

Prontito is popular amongst the locals and is always busy, but there are plenty of seats for those who would like to dine in. Despite its name, it takes over 20 minutes for them to prepare an order. After I placed my order, I was a little anxious of how I will know when my order is ready since they don't give you an order number or receipt, but they somehow manage to remember whose order it is. I ordered the cholado ($7) and combo prontito burger ($11). The cholado, a sweet milky and icy drink with fruit, was delicious with pieces of apple, papaya, honeydew, pineapple, canned peaches, and coconut shavings. It is perfect for summer. Unlike other cholados I had, this one was not dominated by a chunk of ice. The ice was quite small and it was flavored! The prontito combo came with fries, pink sauce, and a huge burger with bacon and a quail egg. While the prices are decent and the size of the burger was huge, the taste was not memorable. The burger was very heavy (calorie-wise) and messy to eat. It took me three sittings to finish it! I'll pass with the prontito burger next time and try something simpler like a cheeseburger or stick with the cholados.

If gluttony was a restaurant, this would be it. A friend brought me here for some bomb food and boy did he deliver. This is what every cheat meal should look like. Everything on the menu is fair game. Burger is amazing, salchipapas is amazing and the tostone is amazing (soooo much chicken). Don't forget to grab a cholado to wash it all down at the end.

Yelp
Why did I just learn about this place? I thought I had *CASH ONLY* I tried the best Cholados but I was so wrong. This place is amazing. The super cholado is the way to go. Papaya, melon, pineapple, banana coconut, guanabana and some condensed milk... wow!!!! Refreshing and filling. So many option to choose from. With ice cream sounds great. Will try next time. Food also looksi amazing. Parking is not so great around here.

Despite being so excited to visit this small Colombian 'Medellin' style fast food spot, we were highly disappointed. The cashier takes your order from the window directly under sign. After about 35 minute wait we received our Colombian Hot Dog & Chicken Patacon. The Colombian Hot Dog we chose was the Hawaiian. It was full of hot dog,bacon,cheese,coleslaw,pineapple,with two qual eggs attached on each end. It was the better of our two orders. The Chicken Patacon we ordered came with a "pound" of shredded chicken with "salsa rosada" (ketchup with mayonnaise) and the fried plantain was covered in avocado. If was not appealing to the eye at all and it was actually sad to see that much food go to waste. I would recommend them taking some extra time to measure the portions and presentation. If we return which I doubt I will only return to order a hot dog.

I was looking for something quick to eat the other night and I've never really been disappointed by Colombian cuisine so I thought this place would be up my alley plus I'm always looking for new places to eat at now that I live in Elmhurst. I've walked by this restaurant a few times and it's always packed (plus the yelp reviews weren't that bad) so I decided to check it out. Side note: I'd been craving a burger the entire day so my hopes were up way high. I ordered a burger and fries combo and waited probably 10-15 minutes for it. The location is not that big so I was often in the way when other customers came in to order food. Once my food was ready I basically ran home with it (I live 2 blocks away) so that my food wouldn't be cold. Unfortunately the double fried french fries were cold. I was disappointed but I'll blame myself for that one. Fries are not usually good when taken out of restaurants. The burger ...... it was generously topped with mayo, mustard and ketchup but sadly the meat itself was not seasoned. It was just a life-less patty with lots of condiments. I was disappointed by the first few bites because I usually enjoy Colombian cuisine. I did not finish the burger because it just wasn't good. Maybe I'll try something else from this place if there are no other quick food options available.

Best cholados in NYC. Refreshing and delicious. Tons of fresh fruit mixed with a perfect blend of ice cream, crushed ice, syrup. Great on a warm day. Food portions are huge and a great value.

Angele C.

Yelp
This is by far the best Cholada I've ever had. I had the super cholada and it was pretty expensive (9.50) but it was packed with fruits and goodies. Next time I would've only gotten the prontito Cholado (regular) for cheaper because the only difference is the super has sour sop but I didn't even notice it had it. I didn't even know what sour sop was until I googled it and learned of its health benefits. Anyway it was packed with papaya, sweet condensed milk (which makes it sweet and tasty), shaved ice (you can see them shaving it in front of you) and packed with fruits including mango, apple, passion fruit etc. it's the actual real fruit. Other places use less fruit and less intricate but this place goes above and beyond. They provide an authentic taste of Colombian dessert as well as other foods that I would like to go back and try. With that being said, try to come with your best Spanish speaking ordering skills (although they do have someone who can translate if necessary)

Best Colombian hot dog around! My boyfriend introduced me and I haven't been the same since. Not to mention, he (Colombian obviously) makes me drive to queens from jersey JUST to get his Perros con todo. WORTH IT.

Karoll R.

Yelp
excellent place, the food is delicious, the most similar to fast food in Colombia, everything I've tried is delicious and comes in large portions. the only bad thing is that they only receive cash, it is better to be prepared. If you go you need try the fruit salad and hamburger and hot dogs and everything

Cristian B.

Yelp
If you're going to prontito I highly recommend you get a prontito burger. The burger has an explosion of flavors in your mouth due to the burger meat, bacon, cheese, caramelized onions, and pineapple sauce. Fries are crunchy and crispy just the way i like them. If you're looking for something sweet get the Cholado with ice cream. Only issue is most of the time there's a wait time. If you know what you want order in advance this is a hyped spot that's usually opened at night

Food is great, no waiters : get in line, place your order and wait. Then go find a seat, or the vice versa. Highly recommend the pink soda (manzana) Also the Super HotDog (Super Perro). Make sure to add all the sauces. Flavor, portion size, and great prices. Street parking only : so you may have to drive around the block a few times to find a spot. It's pretty good and a great option that isn't your average McDonalds or other boring fast food. Definitely recommend. Good stuff

Fox E., or is it Foxy(?)... At any rate, this one's for you. You are my brother from another mother when it comes to matters of the stomach. Not only that, but you heart Queens. And puns. Just like yours truly. So yeah... I tried a cholado and I liked it! (@katyperry) Yes, it was a bit too sweet, but the addition of tangy passion fruit provided balance. Oh hey, so you're wondering what a cholado is? I'd liken it to a Colombian sno-cone, drizzled with condensed milk and packed with tropical fruit like mangoes and papaya. Lovely stuff. Was really into the funky space here, too, and would be all over returning to try the food menu. Ty Fox E. for so passionately recommending this to me.

This place really makes you feel like Colombia, there food always brings you back the first place you had such amazing finger food. The onion they put in the burger just makes them sooo much better oh and that bacon yum. Their cholados to be the best in queens

Slamming food, definitely a cheat meal type of night. A little on the pricey for fast food.

come here if you want to die of a clogged artery or something.....joking! but honestly the food here is heavy, greasy, piled high, and smothered in sauce you have been warned! came here on a random night with a dear friend of mine who I had not seen in a while. We ordered a burger a colombian hot dog and a cholado. Honestly nothing here left a mark on me as I left without remembering much of anything i ate other than how heavy it was, it reminded me of a out of control barbeque of some sorts and you had some heavy set relative who decided to throw the kitchen sink into all the concoctions at said bbq, i mean they had quail eggs and potato chips on the hot dog for god sakes. Not a bad option honestly, its just not really a memorable one either. Come here for the novelty of it

Justin C.

Yelp
Cash only here fellows. We ordered Toston Pollo and the portion size is enough for two people. The down side is they don't have a hot sauce. If I knew this we would have never bought this meal. The more I eat this dish the more stars it's losing because I need a hot sauce. Otherwise this place would have 4 stars if it had at least a hot sauce other than purée of pickled jalapeños for a sauce. Next time I won't order unless they have a hot sauce. I hope the owners read this because I'll come back once you offer a hot sauce.

Whoa! I'm lovin' this refreshing fruity Cholado drink and digging their hamburguesa as well. Store hours varies when it comes to opening time. Waited outside along with the rest of the patrons as the staffs getting ready to open. Once inside I took my time to place my order, never had a Cholado before. Counter lady spoke with little English, so I gestured and pointed at the things I wanted. Got their Hamburguesa Prontito (consisted of beef patty, ham, lettuce, tomato, Pinapple), tasted savory and sweet at the same time- a small quail egg is attached to it too. My Cholado tasted good, with all the blended fruits, shaved ice, and evaporated milk. My Cholado drink could be a little sweeter as some of the fruits were a bit sour and tart. The wait time for my order was pretty long. Customers who came in after me already got their orders while I was still standing awaiting to be called. Went to the counter showed my receipt and the guy nodded, and gave me my hamburgesa. Even though it was wait after wait the good food and drink made up for time spent.

Delicious Colombian Fast Food. Is like your walking into Colombia where you can get a full hot dog to a Bon Bon lolllipop. Full is the word. If your starving and will like a loaded Cheeseburgers or Hotdogs to satisfy your hunger this is your place. They open at noon, We arrived a little earlier but because it was freezing Out they let us come in and chill till they prep to open, they are nice enough to allow you to come in and. The food is loaded OMG is the word. The cheeseburgers are amazing the drinks and the customer service is on point. So glad they so close I can literally walk to them. Make sure your stomach is empty and ready to get full because u won't be able to stop. Every time I pass by is Pack with customers and with a welcoming atmosphere. I am deft coming back to stuff myself. Give it a try you won't regret it. Deft a spot to keep. Loved my BoN BoN as dessert. YUM

EXPENSIVE! Four cholados came out to $39.75 and I got to say I've definitely had better. Disappointed as I thought it would have been so much better. Just meh... and parking around here blows.

Prontitos is the ultimate home away from home Colombian comfort food spot. Great burgers, hot dogs, fruit salads and service! The three employers are friendly, personable and social. The wait could be long sometimes due to the volume of customers they get, but it's definitely worth the wait. Downside, they're not open very late. The usual latest they close on a weekday is 10-11pm and on a weekend midnight. Love me some prontitos!!

Everything was delicious. A milkshake, empanada, and hot dog. But my chocolate milkshake was filled with pieces of plastic. Yuck. As others say, despite the name, the food takes a long time to come out (almost an hour).

Alex L.

Yelp
My only regret is that I didn't spend more time here and try some of their other delicious-looking options. Prontito is cool! I came here in search of this elusive Cholado that the Yelp-world (particularly Fox) recommended. I saw an option for "mega" and non-mega, so I tried one of each. I think the only real difference in the mega is that it comes with a bunch of passionfruit, but they couldn't really explain it very well so who knows. ANYWAY, YES -- the CHOLADO! Get it. It's probably 1,000 calories, but oh so good. Fresh fruits; ripe and tropical with a bunch of condensed milk and honest goodness. Everyone in my group tried one and they were delighted. It's the freshest and most incredible "smoothie" like drink you'll have. It's not even fair to call it a smoothie because it goes way beyond. Yes, it's $10, but you're paying for one hell of a dessert. Do not miss out.

I went on a Sunday and was extremely busy ended up waiting for almost an hour to get two burgers and 2 cholados.I read all the Yelp reviews so I was very excited about the place, but was very disappointed This place is not worth the wait and the food is mediocre to say the least. There are much better cholados from the place on northern Blvd and 84 street. At a better price.

I seen this spot packed & not to mention the mouth watering photos on yelp, finally I had the chance to stop & try it for myself! The spot itself is clean & smells of Bacon & Everything deep-fried. All the wait & finally, The Burger arrived it was massive filled w/ every topping in the book & a side of fries. The damn patty itself was tasteless very bland. I guess that's the reason, why they submerge the patty under all them toppings! The worst part was, all the topping actually made the burger extremely soggy & that's a NO NO. Overall the burger was Ok! Good after a long night of drinking!

This is based on simply the cholado since that's all we ordered. I've only had one other cholado before in my life and it was from a place on northern blvd which I did not care for. Very plain and overly sweet. Prontito's cholados are full of various fruits. L ordered it with everything. From what I could tell there was... banana, papaya, mango, honeydew, Apple, passion fruit, pineapple, sour sop, coconut shavings.. I think I named all the fruits in it. It was sweet and tart which I liked. Much healthier than the other ones in the area. Kinda pricey at almost $8 but it had so much fruit. Each cholado takes quite some time to create. One of the best Cholados L has had...and he's prob thinkin of getting another one soon. I might try a burger next time. Plenty of seats though not very comfy...small wooden stools. Prices prob increased from the move to a much larger location.

Food was amazing as always! The owners and workers are so pleasant and attentive to your questions about their very diverse and very Colombian menu that takes you back to your memories of a Latino childhood. Also a big plus, they keep the place clean and neat. This is golden! I myself am not Colombian but have had these kind of burgers and hotdogs since I was young, and I must say, if you seek this delicious cuisine, Prontito is the #1 place to go. They are the BOMB! For those that have never had a Colombian burger and hotdog, pout this on your bucket list! On another note, for those who have been to their older location: This is an entirely revamped location from their previous. I must say, what a hell of an upgrade! Congratulations!

This place is a gem of colombian street food here in queens. The burger was so goood! The bacon was sweet and nice. The waiting time for the food was a little too long for me but it was worth it. The salsa the piña with the burger goes so well together! Really pleasant place. I think that the patacon needs a little improvement though.

I'm only giving this place a 1 star because the fries are good. But everything else is terrible, the service, the lady answering the phones, the overall experience was upsetting. I ordered a chicken burger with specific items and a mangometro made me wait 30 mins to find out they gave me a hamburger with no mangometro. You would think speaking the same language, they will get it correctly. Well you're wrong. Once I got home I realized I received the wrong order and gave them a call. A lady gets on the phone to tell me I would have to come back because the system automatically modified it to hamburger... Then she wants to say I never added a mango metro in the first place and the worst of all, they never even gave me a receipt. And when I asked her for her mistakes to have this delivered, she responds that she didn't make a mistake and she can't have it delivered that I would have to go back, i told her my correct order and made her repeat it back so i know she has it correctly.. for me not to go back and forth, I went back to pick up my correct order to again reach home and had my order incorrect again! Honestly, everyone in here needs training to speak, to listen, and take orders. If you get hungry and this is the last place to eat at, just make your own food. Cause I am forever avoiding this place!

Yummmmmy! I was just craving burgers and found this place near my apartment so wasn't expecting much. But oh wow so glad we stumble upon this place! These burgers are HUGE! Stuffed with yummies! I ordered the huevos mexicana- it had avocado, egg, ham, bacon, cheese, burger patty, chipotle sauce and jalapeño! i could not finish it! But my husband sure did! Also the interior was very trendy and clean! Really did not expect this!! Will definitely come again! I would have given five stars but one star off for the wait time. We waited about 20-30 minute for our food. They were serving the takeout food people first.
