This place and the chef/ owner are the best things that ever happened to Astoria. Music oh boy oh boy.
Charming bistro with lovely French wines and perfectly prepared entrees. Don’t miss the crepes.
If you walk too fast, you might miss it.
And honestly, some people in the neighborhood might be perfectly happy keeping this gem a secret. But with one of the best brunch menus in Astoria, that’s a pretty hard secret to keep.
We’ve been revisiting some of our team’s favorite restaurants around the neighborhood, and this one is definitely Bianca Colasuonno Team-approved.
Great food, great brunch, and absolutely worth slowing down for.

Cafe Triskell is a small, cozy restaurant known for its delicious brunch and the exceptional French cooking of its chef, Philippe. The menu offers a variety of tasty options such as the frisée salad, lemon sugar crepes, duck l’orange, French toast, and quiche. Brunch standouts include the Nordic Benedict, featuring light and fluffy "love bun" rolls, smoked salmon, perfectly seasoned fried egg, and hollandaise sauce, as well as the corned beef hash with potatoes and a fried egg. The in-house homemade French toast, made with incredibly soft and fluffy brioche bread, has been praised as the best French toast for years. Customers appreciate the value offered, as all brunch dishes come with coffee, tea, or orange juice.
The restaurant has an intimate atmosphere, with both indoor and outdoor seating. It is often family-run with familiar staff, making it feel welcoming. However, service can be slow at times, especially during busy periods, since it usually has only one server and one cook. Despite occasional delays, guests love the great food and the lovely vibe. A cash discount of 4% is available for those who prefer to avoid card processing fees. Overall, Cafe Triskell continues to be a beloved spot for brunch lovers looking for a nice and relaxing meal in the neighborhood.
