37 Best Bistros near Astoria

“Great, unique cocktails. Loved the Madonna song theme going on that cocktail list it really boosts the vibe. Had a great time over snacks and some drinks with friends for a celebration and would celebrate there again. Antonia rocks, definitely someone worth meeting when you’re in she’ll definitely make your experience special!“

“It is located inside the Vista LIC Hotel where we had the opportunity to have breakfast. Friendly and efficient service, good quality freshly prepared breakfast. Right now there is a promotion $11.99 two eggs, bacon/sausage, potatoes, juice/coffee/tea.“

“Came for dinner last night. Food was amazing!! As were the cocktails. We had the Caesar salad, fried eggplants, pork shoulder, and swordfish. I’ve never had a pork shoulder like the one I had last night. Best one I’ve eaten by far.“

“The food was impeccable. The shish barak stood out immediately — brought fully to life by Huda’s deft touch of spice. Among the appetizers, the bandora showcased heirloom tomatoes at their absolute freshest, while the rakkat achieved a rare and graceful balance between sweet and savory. The kibbeh naya is a must-try for anyone who appreciates raw meat.

Service, courtesy of Ismail, was warm without being intrusive, striking exactly the right note. We will be back.“

“The gumbo and Oxtail w/polenta were 👏🏿👏🏿 Bravo Mike! Bravo!!“

“I felt very well taken care of and valued throughout my meal. The Serbian waiter was very skilled and friendly and he really made sure I was well taken care of.“

“Pretty OK steak tartare, but overly acidic and that “dried” yolk is funny. The salad is also extremely acidic but thankfully i got a side of fries (yes, a steak tartare that doesn’t come with fries lol) and they were pretty good!“

“We found Sullaluna through the Red Dining Book, and we’re so happy we decided to try it. It’s a beautiful, charming restaurant, with walls lined with a colorful collection of children’s books that give the space so much character. The food was even better - the pastas were fresh, vibrant, and delicious. It was also such a treat to meet the owner and hear her story. A really special experience all around, and a place we’re very glad to have discovered.“

“A friend who’s a regular recommended this place, so I decided to check it out. The cocktails were great, the French onion soup was excellent, and somehow the night turned into a very serious debate over who the best Spider-Man is. 😂

For the record, it’s Tobey Maguire. I respect everyone’s right to have an opinion, even when it’s wrong. 😂

Really fun place, great food and drinks, and apparently some very strong opinions on Spider-Man. 🕷🍹“

“Great food excellent service Highly recommend“

“Incredible dining experience. I’m not one to leave reviews but I had to after my experience at the Bistrot. This was a truly unique meal in a city oversaturated with flavorless, trendy, Johnny-come-lately’s. The staff is friendly — not fake — friendly. They are knowledgeable and when it comes to wine pairings they want you to actually enjoy what you’re drinking, not just sell you the most expensive bottle. The food is out of this world and worth it with flavors carefully put together that impress even the most jaded of New Yorkers. I was pleasantly surprised, not because of any previous knowledge of the restaurant but because for the first time in years I truly enjoyed going out to dinner.“

“Ella Funt is a delight! Cool vibe from the moment you walk in — excellent mood lighting and beautiful art across the walls. A lot of it is a bit risque, but I loved it. And the bathroom on the left is painted entirely in gold, which is so funny and so fitting.

Cocktails are spot on. The Lower Manhattan is a solid non-ABV choice, and the Lemon Martini does the trick if you're in the mood for a gin martini — strong but not too hard. Wine by the glass is well-priced for NYC. Food-wise, it was good but not great. We had the tuna crudo, steak tartare, tomato salad, trout with celery root puree, and the steak au poivre. The tuna crudo was a great start, but the meal kind of plateaued from there. The steak au poivre was just too saucy and peppery — I like au poivre, but this was too much. Overall a decent experience with good value, coming in under $100 per person with tip. Just don't come primarily for the food.“

“The food is delicious and Mihai is the best waiter!“

“Edwin was amazing the second we walked in. He was helpful and I will always be impressed by anyone who can memorize food orders. The nachos are amazing and the steak was perfect on top. Next time I’m asking for more guac cause that stuff was amazing. I had the pork special and it was out of this world. The sauce was creamy with the perfect spicy ending and the chop was huge and cooked perfect. The music was classical so it made the date night perfect. BYOB so bring ur own wine. There is a store across the street tho so dw.“

“Wonderful, wonderful wonderful . Cozy, romantic atmosphere.. food was terrific . We had the endive salad appetizer, salmon dinner . Both . Fantastic. We will return . Hostess was so warm and welcoming. Thank you for such a special night . We can’t wait to come back“

“10/10 for Dudley's, food was amazing, we had the whipped ricotta and calamari to start and then shared the cheese burger, it was all delicious and a perfect amount of food for two ladies. The servers were attentive. Bar staff was great and cocktails are good. The tables are close to each other but that's to be expected. There is one restroom for men and women but there was no wait and the restaurant was full. Great experience, would go again“

“We ordered so many incredible signature dishes. The lamb moussaka was 5 stars! To really test them we ordered one of the best lahmanchoun’s we’ve tasted in NY! Cozy atmosphere, attentive waitstaff, Momo JC definitely exceeded our expectations!“

“This restaurant is very authentic, classical french food done well with great ingredients. Our Dover Sole was cooked perfectly and very fresh, the frog legs were moist with a silky texture. It is not our first visit and will not be our last for sure.“

“It’s cozy and they got very good coffee☕️“

“This is such an amazing place! I highly recommend the steak tartare and just about everything I’ve ever eaten here. The French apple martinis are definitely drinkable. From the friendly atmosphere to the scrumptious creme brûlée—this is a must visit restaurant.“

“We stayed at the hotel for one night since we had a dinner party across the street on Saturday. It was just a nice, calm place to have breakfast since there wasn't much open right there on Sunday morning. The staff was very friendly. I had scrambled eggs with applewood smoked bacon, potatoes and toast, and my husband had the breakfast burrito, which came with fresh fruit.“

“One of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve had in a while. Stayed there for 3 nights and tried Breakfest sandwich, breakfast burrito and avocado toast. All of them were delicious, especially the avocado toast. Very fresh and well seasoned. Totally recommend.“

“fantastic place. If you want to support peace, love, and harmony line up outside!“

“This was a ‘cross your fingers & hope the reviews are legit’ reservation choice because of its location for everyone to get there and home easily from the day’s activities. AND because I needed to believe in their happy hour oysters being good. They weren’t just good…they were grand, glorious, slurpy, briny bites of joy! We devoured them. Drinks were an excellent foil to them for us too. Dinner orders delivered even more plate passing, fork stabbing expressions of delight. Steak was perfectly cooked per the order, as was the salmon. The fresh pasta was tender yet toothsome and melted in your mouth. The ragu on top was well seasoned and full of lamb. Everyone was quite full and the dessert offerings were too wonderful sounding to pass up.. and wonderful they were! Flourless chocolate cake that was rich enough to buy its own home in Manhattan and the fruited cake with a pile of whipped cream made us wonder if we could buy the whole thing and have some again in the morning with coffee. Mila’s delivered on all fronts and we were ecstatic. Go.. especially when you can enjoy happy hour…go even if you can’t do happy hour, you’ll be glad you did.“

“Delicious food, speedy service, their prices are really affordable too. All around great restaurant. My favorite dish is their churrasco!“

“Nice Restaurant and people are friendly and very attentive. It’s atmosphere. Will definitely recommend this place.“

“Un lugar único con un ambiente elegante y relajado para la gente bien. Muy buena comida y buenas atenciones. Su decoración de flores es única!!“
