“Great happy hour deals and super friendly staff. The ambiance was great (nice candle lighting and art). Apparently they do fried chicken meals on Thursdays which sounds cool. We tried the pasta special and the house burger and fries and everything was great and reasonably priced.“

“The food and service is excellent. It is always an enjoyable evening.“

“A very cozy restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. Friendly and attentive staff (Dina and Galya, thank you for the excellent service and warm welcome). Delicious food.
If you were looking for a place to eat deliciously, then I wholeheartedly recommend the restaurant "Moldova".
And there is also a banquet hall, which is great for celebrating birthdays or any holiday for a company. This is a separate cozy room.
Thank you for your hospitality and delicious food! I think I will now become your frequent guest❤️“

“Amazing experience! We found this speakeasy and is a hidden gem! The ambiance is enchanting, the food is very delicious and the drink are fantastic! Specially the martinis. Our waiter was Maria, she was outstanding , super friendly and accommodating. A must visit for a memorable night out! Ask for Maria if you have a chance!“

“These are the perogies I dream of. hand made generations old recipe both classic ingredients and newer flavors, vegan offerings too. BaBa’s is a must do for us every time we’re in NYC and recently we enjoyed the hand crafted delights at home when we received a bunch as a gift after having a baby for my postpartum nurturing. Just like the name every pierogis feels like a bit of love from grandmas kitchen straight to the heart ( by way of the tummy) We love you guys and we love babas!“

“Went for dinner last night with my hubby for his birthday. We had a delicious dinner with excellent service. We enjoyed frog legs, escargot, sole and filet mignon. We had desert but those weren't our favorite dishes. They sang happy birthday to my husband and brought us a delicious dessert cocktail gratis. We will definitely be coming back soon!“

“Laid back vibe, excellent wine choices and I sampled my first ever oyster - delish!“

“love my Birthday, it was unforgettable in every aspect. surprise cake Marina made for me was the gift i will never forget“

“Loved everything about our evening at Frevo. It felt like an experience as much as dinner. The service was excellent, the food fantastic, and the vibe was downright sexy. I will be dreaming of the carrot course and the Comte with honey ice cream. Both literally made my eyes roll to the back of my head in the best of ways and were some of the best things I have ever eaten.“

“The food was awesome. Fresh well seasoned and delicious. The staff here was exceptional. The place had that family feel to it .“

“Favorite restaurant, delicious food, sublime wine, amazing chefs Robbie & Sam , friendly and welcoming owners, Clement & Simone go above and beyond to make your experience of their gem of a restaurant simply the best! Love this treasure in our neighborhood, make your reservation and try as much as you can on the menu, every mouthful is just wonderful!!“

“It was amazing experience ! Great place ! Elegant design inside , excellent service and food is overrated ! Filet mignon - I didn’t eat anything like that for many years even in streak houses ! Master chef in this kitchen ! Bravo !!! I definitely come back with my friends and highly recommended to others!!!“

“We walked in not knowing what the restaurant was and were pleasantly surprised. Awesome food, great atmosphere, friendly owner and staff. I highly recommend this restaurant. Thank you.“

“Was able to reserve a time slot for a ~9pm take out deal with the app tgtg, for 3 slices of cake, the apple strudel, linzer raspberry cake/pie and sacher torte. They are all made in-house and made fresh that day. The 3 slices were all delicious, so much so I came back again the next night to get the slices for a friend's birthday. The cake slices were well presented by the friendly staff rivaling that of other fine restaurants. The desserts were not overly sweet or excessive in chocolate in the case of the sacher torte, and had the characteristic drier, delicate texture of Austrian cuisine with fresh ingredients from a fine dining establishment. They brightened up the challenging work day I was having. The space of Wallse Next Door (on Washington St around the corner from Wallse), was a quiet spot in the evening or day, and a fine place to meet friends.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chito Gvrito and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm, friendly smile and a cozy ambiance that set the tone for the evening. The menu offers a perfect balance of classic favorites and innovative dishes (shout out to the Chief), ensuring there’s something for everyone. I started with the Georgian salad and eggplant rolls, which was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. For my main course, I chose Ojakhuri which was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. My friends selected: Adjaruli khachapuri (cheese and egg in the middle of deliciously baked bread) and Shrimp dish. This goes well with chacha and compote drink, make sure to have few shots. The service was impeccable. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and eager to make recommendations based on our preferences. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, enhancing the overall dining experience. To top it all off, we indulged in the dessert, had 4 various ones that we split and all were AMAZING! This was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. It was clear that every dish was prepared with care, using fresh, high-quality ingredients. Overall, I highly recommend Chito Gvrito for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. It’s not just a meal—it’s an experience you won’t want to miss!“

“Amazing Restaurant! Good food, service and cocktails .. Sam the server was very informative about the restaurants daily events ( happy hour, brunch etc.) I will definitely return ..“

“My dining experience at "Baku Nights" restaurant was truly exceptional. From the moment we entered, the welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff made us feel right at home. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, each expertly crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite was a culinary delight, and I can’t wait to return to "Baku Nights" restaurant explore more of their delicious creations. Highly recommended!“

“We ordered Delivery pilaf and 4 types of shish kebab.
Everything was very tasty, the kebab was very juicy and soft, the pilaf was also delicious. Delivery was not long, all the food was hot and well packaged.
I recommend trying it. We will order more. Thank you for your work!“

“came in about 30 mins before closing and were still greeted and welcomed warmly. we were served by a young gentleman with glasses and a beard (unfortunately i didn’t catch his name) who was an absolute class act. we ordered the mediterranean panini and grilled chicken wrap both of which were phenomenal. the food is fresh, clean and delicious! a pleasant young lady with dark hair helped bring some of our orders out. as amazing as the food was, i cannot stress how excellent the service is. this place is truly a gem! will be returning and recommending to friends and family!“

“Ushqim, ambient dhe mikpritje fantastike!“

“The best Polish deli on the island! Everything is extremely fresh, amazing assortment of authentic food products, cosmetics, magazines, medicine. etc! The homemade dishes taste like they were made by my grandmother and the pierogi are truly award-winning. Beata is so sweet and accommodating and has even made custom trays for my family during the holidays. I highly recommend this deli to anyone looking for the authentic Polish experience!“

“Очень вкусная кухня, отличное обслуживание“

“Small place ran by a lovely couple with all the signature classic Romanian dishes! This place is a complete hidden gem! The eggplant salad starter is just like my grandmother and mother make, the meats are excellent - portion sizes are huge and everything tastes like a solid Romanian place on my visits to Romania. The star today was the Papanasi - a classic Romanian cheese donut! One of the best I had ever! Highly recommended! Will definitely come again!“

“To start with, the service was fantastic. everyone was attentive to our needs but at no time did we feel like we were being pressured. The food was all delicious and the pricing for main dishes and sushi was very reasonable. The menu is very creative and the dishes are presented beautifully. Definitely worth trying and I would eat there again.“

“Food was ok. Max & cheese was great. Burger meh, cake good. I had a minty margarita very good. You pay for the atmosphere. Performers were excellent. So friendly and great voices. I was really impressed with that. When all is said and done tax, tip, expect to pay $90 pp.“

“Спасибо большое Алику и Руфату за честность и порядочность! На дне рождение моей мамы, мы по ошибке переплатили не маленькую сумму денег. Только на следующий день мы поняли, что сделали ошибку и переплатили. Мама связалась с Руфатом и Аликом. Сумму, заплаченную по ошибке, администрация ресторана вернула сразу же. Так же хочу отметить вкусную кухню и отличный сервиз!! Спасибо большое за гостеприимство!“

“Our guests are arriving around 3:30 on Sunday. We wanted to sit down, have a meal, and chat. I called to make a reservation at this cafe. Artem answered, saying he was the manager. He asked, ‘Will you leave by 5?’ I thought maybe there was a banquet after 5, but I was told, ‘No, we just have two time slots: until 5 and from 6. It’s inconvenient for us otherwise. Even Igor (the owner) won’t be able to help you.’ It felt very rude and unprofessional. I’ve lived in the US for 30 years and have been to this cafe many times (though usually after 6), but I’ve never encountered service like this anywhere before. My desire to visit again has probably disappeared for good.“

“Homemade, delicious food!!!“

“I’ve ordered some food from Eden by delivery. Burgers are so delicious and juicy and it comes with tasty fries and a sauce too. Eden salad is my favorite, it’s fresh and pretty good size.

Also, I definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a good hookah. It’s the best in Brooklyn?“

“Great food and homemade soups every time I go there. One of my favorite Portuguese restaurants in NJ.“
