“ The place looks really nice and cool inside. It's full of different things such as bikes, garbage cans, stuff you would find randomly outside. The food is pretty good and the drinks not bad. I would go again for a quick snack and a drink. ”

“ I'm not too sure why this place has such a low rating. I finally got to try this eccentric looking spot. I always used to pass by here as a kid and was amazed by the storefront, but the inside is even cooler! Basurero means garbage collector in Spanish, and the decor reflects that. Literally could not stop looking at all the cool "garbage" in the restaurant. Anyways, the drinks were very good. My friend and I had the mango punch which was strong and delicious. For food, we ordered salchipapas, tostones con guacamole and bandeja paisa. Everything was fresh and so good. This was my first time having Colombian food and I loved it, especially bandeja paisa. For $25, the plate comes packed with meats, rice, maduros, avocado and beans. I could hardly eat it all. I would have skipped the salchipapas, which is just fries and hot dogs, not bad but also not outstanding. Service was efficient, we didn't have to wait long for anything. I think this is a nice place for groups. I will definitely come back here and try their different dishes and drinks. ”

“ At first I had my doubts about this places, the comments on yelp weren't the greatest and I kind of felt of insecure of going but let me say its a GREAT PLACE, they had great servers, delicious food and a pretty amazing ambiance! Will start by saying that ordering anything grill will be a great choice cause their meat, steak, entraña or picanha is flavorful The food didn't take long and their service was very attentive! Ps: I didnt like the fact that you cant pick Moros as a side for your main dish, they should add that note to the menu because all the pictures I showed my parents came like that and then the server said it couldn't be changed, we can only add that on top of the other sides that came with the Steak! But aside from that note, everything was delicious, great restaurant! ”

“ If you are looking for one of the few spots in Queens/ the city to dance Salsa all night long, I recommend el Basurero! HaveI haven'tnt tried the food in the time times I've been but lots of good energy from staff and patrons. Its a good time here. ”

“ Best Colombian restaurant in Astoria! Continue to come back for the delicious food, great service and amazing ambiance ! ”

“ First off its a little dark so had to read the menu with my cell phone light so we ordered the Guacamole Con Tostones and Chicharron that was good but the Chicharron is in small pieces i like mine big and whole and i had the yuca fries delicious and the chorizo and corn cake i am clearly an appetizer person we also ordered and shared the chicken cutlet with rice and beans i was here years ago but it was much better now and the bar was very busy for a Friday night after work spot i think you will be happy and the bathroom was just ok !!! ”
