Ask what they have tagine-style. Great fresh fish and no nonsense.

We arrived to dine inside, and even though there was clearly open seating, they wouldn’t let us sit. We also didn’t know that orders have to be placed in person instead of calling ahead, and despite that misunderstanding, they still refused to seat us. Overall, the experience felt unwelcoming.

Second time coming here and they’re extremely rude we asked to move tables because they put us right next to the door , it was empty and they said no it could fill up any second … I walked out and went next door to Sabrys and they were so nice and welcoming . If I could give this place a 0 I would . Don’t waste your time . Very disappointing .
Wish I could give zero . It’s a good place to go for seafood but the entire restaurant’s atmosphere is zero and the service as well . No welcome no smiles . Employees are standing there doing nothing . They just stand and watch customers most of the time . The owner is always unhappy stressed look . There seating arrangements are worst . They will force you to seat there where they want , customers can’t choose their table even if the tables are empty. Such a narrow small table sometimes you order a lot food and there are no place on that small table ! The owner just overlook ! Employees are not trained up . They don’t know what to do !
Restaurant atmosphere should not he like that .

Usually, I don’t mind mediocre service if the food is great. After all, I’m going for the food.
This place however somehow provided the most hostile, arrogant, and nonchalant service I’ve ever had the displeasure to experience. The food is at best solid fresh seafood, certainly nothing to write home about in NYC. Not sure what gives them the gall to act the way they do. Every single person, from the counter guy to wait staff, was atrocious.
If you have any self respect, spend your money elsewhere.

If it was possible to give NO STAR I would. And best believe it this is one of my regular seafood places. It was extremely disrespectful and sickening and disgusting behavior from one of the server/host whatever he is. The restaurant only had two or three other tables while the whole restaurant was empty. We went like around 8:30/8:45PM on a cold day. Didn’t let us pull sit in a corner table saying it was going to get busy in a couple minutes. I waited around 10 mins to see when that was happening. He gave us the most disgusting attitude. The owner was sitting and listening to this and didn’t take any action. How are you letting the host behave this disrespectfully towards your guests???

The food here is excellent, but unfortunately, the owner’s attitude really takes away from the experience. He’s quite rude and controlling, and it’s uncomfortable to see how he treats his staff. The employees seem to have no freedom to make simple decisions, like assigning tables, even when there are plenty of empty ones. It’s disappointing because the food deserves better management.

I absolutely adore this place, from the concept to the entire ambiance, everything feels so authentic and full of character. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and you can tell the owner puts their heart into that place. It’s one of those rare spots that feels welcoming and just like home. A true gem in Astoria!
