Jugos Prontito Y Algo mas

Did they move? Took an hour drive last night to this place, to satisfy a pregnancy craving and could not find it. Very disappointed

Cholado! Never knew such a thing existed in this world. Thanks to the Unilocal community in Queens, we discovered the joy of sipping on a beverage that is nothing short of «muy delicioso». Who would guess that a dessert comprising of fresh fruit, condensed milk, shaved ice and syrup would transport one’s taste buds to a tropical paradise.
Next time you’re in Elmhurst, take a detour to find joy in life’s sweet little adventures.

This place was a place that my friend said I absolutely had to go to for the cholado. But I had to get the loaded burger and it was absolutely amazing, all of the flavor was just mind blowing. We had the fries too. I was Sokol stuff but I had to try to cholado since I was there already. And guess what it was totally worth it. I was stuff but just couldn’t stop eating it. My favorite was the Guanabana in it. There was soo much of it. I can’t wait to go back there

When people say this place is legit, they weren’t kidding. This place is GOOD. I’ll keep my review for this place short b/​c if you want to read more, I suggest you read Fox E.‘s review. It’ll keep you occupied for a while.
Either you can continue reading reviews of this place, or you can start HEADING OVER THERE right now!

This review contains a marriage proposal.
My name is Fox and I’m a Cholado addict. The greatest drink/​dessert on earth. This tiny place with only a couple of stools, deep in the belly of Latina Elmhurst, has by far the best one. The Colombian Cholado Guy who makes them (and owns it) is my dream man. Watch him shave the ice, it’s brilliant! «Shaving the ice» is not a euphemism for anything.
A «Cholado» is fresh tropical fruits, condensed milk, freshly-​shaved ice, passion fruit syrup, and other heavenly wonders. «Jugos» are fresh Colombian juices with blended fruit, ice, and sugar. A «yoyo» is a messy sandwich on plantain bread. A «raspado» is a sweet shaved ice drink with condensed milk.
Now let’s sing!
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
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 hiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh… yeah, yeah
What to get: Cholado
What else: Jugos, Colombian Burger, Colombian Hot Dog, Arepas, Patacons, Yoyos.
Warning: Wait times are long, call ahead for drinks or food. They’re insanely popular.
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).
I discovered JPyAM years ago. I fell deeply in love and have been a regular ever since. The owner and Cholado-​maker is wonderful, I consider him a friend. Well, I raved to him about his Cholados so much and how I travel 400 miles to get one, so he’s forced to accept the friendship imposition. His female employees and I love each other. However, he may just «like» me. But one day, in my dreams, it will develop into love. And I’ll pop the question, down on one knee:
«Cholado Guy, will you… tell me how to make this damn thing please dude?»
Now I’m feeling shy. Next time I’ll have to come here «Jugos Incognito.»
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.»
Queens gets humid in summer, you may get bitten by a «Jugos Mosquito.» The guy here looks subtly like Danny Devito, so I call him «Pseudo Devito.»
The Jugos are amazing, and not too sweet like some. Las Americas has better Raspados. Burgers/​Dogs are insane, with all kinds of crazy things (including a mini egg) and redefine what a burger & dog can be, Colombian street-​style. Awesome Arepas, Patacons and Yoyos. Try them! Always call ahead. The irony of «Jugos Prontito y Algo Mas» is an in-​joke. It means «quick juices and a little more.» But nothing’s quick at Jugos Prontito (except the spontaneous orgasmic cumbustion when taste a Cholado) and they have a lot more than «a little more» (as do I). That, though, is part of the charm.
I’ve taken brothers & lovers here, all agree: it rocks. Famous Colombians Sofia Vergara, James Rodriguez, Shakira and Carlos Valderrama hang out here daily. A Cholado costs $ 6. 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?
If women are from Venus (or Venus-​uela) (and they so are), Cholados are from Mars. They make me feel like I’ve been locked out of heaven for too long. I make love cholados like (vanilla) gorillas. Cholado will never be your mother’s favourite. But there’ll be no sunshine if I don’t get a Cholado. In fact, it will rain. I’d catch a grenade for a Cholado. If you ripped the brakes right out my car, I’d still drive here.
My addiction got me dumped. I should’ve bought her Cholados and held her hand. Taken her to every Cumbia Club cuz all she wanted to do was dance. Now my baby’s drinking Cholados with another man.
This Cholado’s ice cold, way sexier than Michelle Pfeiffer, straight masterpiece. Don’t believe me? Just taste!
That’s «Bruno Prontito Y Algo Mars.» Or was it «y Algo Mark Ronson.» Elmhurst funk’s gonna give it to you.
Then I have a taste. There’s not a thing that I would change (except no Soursop next time). Cuz they’re amazing just the way they are. All you young, wild Cholados, you’ll be the death of me. Treasure. That is what Cholados are. It’s a beautiful night. We’re looking for something dumb to do. Hey, Unilocalers… I think I wanna marry the Cholado guy.
Short version of review:
«Go to Queens. Get a Cholado here. Taste his delicious creamy nectar in your mouth. Explode in pants. Pix or it didn’t happen. Then go home. Send me nude selfies. Then sleep. Then wake up. Then repeat. P. S. Cholado Guy: will you marry me.»

Delicious hamburger, hot dog and cholado… I don’t like their french fries… it worth to drive for a long time to have good junk food…

Someone should of warned me… The hamburgers are enormous… I wanna say they weigh at least 4 lbs!!!(slight exaggeration) I could only get through ¹⁄₃ of it and I was STUFFED!!! I ordered my burger with everything, bacon, ham, cheese, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, quail egg and pineapple. It is incredibly juicy but messy. Such a fantastic combination of flavors. Colombian street food is like no other!! The establishment is tiny, there is one stool inside and 3 stools outside so it’s definitely better to take out. I ordered fries with my burger, and the fries are great too, somehow they managed to stay warm during my 10 min walk home. I also ordered the infamous cholado, which I put in the freezer and had 3 hours later. I really love their version, the fruit syrups are definitely better quality and not as sweet as the other cholado places in the area. I love the fact you’re able to choose which fruits you want. I had everything except papaya, I too can’t stand the stuff! Service is great, the ladies and gentleman that work there are friendly. I wont lie, it helps if you speak Spanish. This is not your typical fast food place. I would say my order took about 15 – 20 mins. No problem, I’d rather have them take their time and get it right. If your in a rush, I would highly suggest calling in your order first. I do adore this place but l wont be visiting too often… my waistline wont allow it. But it is worth every single fat laden calorie when you do!

This place is so much better than Palacio de los Cholados, it’s insane. Both times that I’ve been there, there has been a row of double parked cars waiting for their food, or hanging out in front eating.
The juices/​syrups they use to make the cholado taste so much better. The guy that makes the cholados uses about 5 different fruits, and they vary by the day.
For instance my first time there he used mango, papaya, banana, honeydew melon, coconut, and passion fruit purée. The second time he used apple instead of the honeydew.
I always ask for mine with less leche condensada (condensed milk) to avoid too much sweetness. I just have to remember to request it without papaya — hate that stuff, lol.
The hotdogs and hamburgers looked amazing, I’ll be back to try them soon

Amazing hole in the wall! The burgers here are soo delicious, extremely rich in flavor, definitely leaving the meal feeling like you gained an extra side roll (lol). But it is just too good to resist. The hotdogs are great as well and I always ALWAYS get the Mango with lemon and salt. Its soooo good, they take a mango and somehow shave it into somewhat spaghetti form and put it in a cup with lemon juice (real, not bottle) and salt. These go fast, sometimes we drive here just for that when we aren’t up to the burger challenge and they are out of the mango.
The deserts are great too, I tried their cholado and they actually put guanabana chunks in it. The banana split is yummy as well. So far the only thing I wasn’t a big fan of was the arepas rellenas, they were a bit disappointing compared to the rest of the menu, but by all means not bad.

This was our first time trying a cholado. We tried going to El Palacio first but saw that it was closed so we came here, which stays open a tad later (12a on a Friday night). It’s not exactly easy to find if you’re driving past it, but there were a bunch of cars basically double parked outside the place, so it was a pretty easy giveaway. It was slightly past 11 but still very packed, with the few seats inside and outside all taken and customers hanging around outside. I had to squeeze myself to the counter and wait awkwardly behind the ladies eating at the counter, and grab the attention of one of the servers, all of whom were busy the entire time. Wait time between ordering the cholado and getting it was probably at least 10 minutes, but it was neat watching the guy make it with all the fruits and shaved ice. It was worth it though – awesome dessert, with lots of tropical fruits and cream and ice. Probably not the healthiest snack, but it’s good comfort food.

Best Colombian «junk» food outside of Colombia. Best cholado in NYC. Best empanadas in NYC.

Whoa, one of the best burgers I’ve ever had, even comes with a quail egg, the fries are really good too. I’ve also had their arepas mixtas and it freaking spectacular. They deliver but expect 1hr+ wait time for weekend nights. You can always call ahead and pick up.

THE BEST Colombian Street food I’ve ever had! [outside from my beautiful Colombia]…Hands down!!! If you’re in Queens, NY you must visit!!!
Great Quality… Great Prices… Great Taste!!!

This is the best place in NYC to eat Colombian street food. Flavor quantity and price make it the best. The place is tiny in space but big in service and quality. Theyre always busy so just call ahead.

This place has the best cholado. Absolutely much better than palacio de cholado, which offered 3 fruits as their super — strawberries, bananas and pineapples. What a joke. The cholado a here contain — sour sop, honey dew melon, apples, passion fruit, papaya, strawberries, bananas, pineapples, berries, coconut shavings and shaved ice with syrup and condensed milk. Bright, flavorful and with a cherry on top. There should so many more positive ratings here than there are.

Love this place. Real colombian fast food! It’s a very tiny place and everything is made to order that’s why it’s a little slow, but that’s ok! I’ll wait for such yummy treats ! Burger (hamburguesa con todo), hotdog hawaiiano (perro hawaiiano) y cholado, my favorites!
*** If you dont wanna wait that much, call ahead and order!

THE MOST AMAZING HOTDOGS EVER!
Let me just say this is seriously the BEST hotdog ever. One bite and you already know that you have never had anything like this. This hotdog is composed of bread, a hotdog (duh), cheese, BACON (yes bacon), carrots, cabbage, ketchup, mayo, pink sauce, peach sauce, pineapple and a quail egg (yes I said a quail egg). All that for only four dollars. That’s a pretty good deal if you ask me. The food does take around 20 minutes to make so be prepared but seriously worth the wait I promise you that.
THASIT I don’t need to say much else. You just have to try it.

This place is legit colombia in a box. It has everything colombia is known for and everything is so good! I love this place. The cholados here are way better than the ones in el palacio de cholados on northern blvd. This place is a little chaotic so call ahead! This place is a hidden charm in the borderline of Jackson heights and Elmhurst.

I was craving a cholado which is basically a slushy with fruit and condensed milk. I’ve been to other places to eat a cholado but this is my new favorite place. They give you many fruits in your cholado while other places only give you strawberries and banana. The line was really long and the place is very tiny. They offer many other Colombian fast food options which look very appealing. Place is great and food is great only reason why I give it 4 stars is because I had to wait 45 minutes for my cholado. But It was worth it!

Best Colombian burger! Authentic flavor hole in the wall, no seating. Make sure to leave room for a Cholado Prontito. It’s definitely a Queens gem. The Hamburgesa Prontito is huge I can only eat half. I’ve also had their Prontito Arepa which is also delicious. You can’t go wrong with anything you order.
Call in order wait on a Friday night is usual 45mins.
