Came in for a drink after work - this is hands-down the best cocktail I've ever had, and I'm sure the others are just as amazing! Will be back ASAP to try

I went to celebrate my birthday with my family and friends and we all couldn't be happier with the food that we order but specially the personalized service. We felt so welcomed and appreciated that even before we were done, we were planning to go back. 1000/10!!!!

An Instagram post got me here.My friends and I came in after work on the last day before break. This is notable because the other groups in here all seemed to be teachers ( we love an after work/pre break hang out).The location is cute and upscale with its lush blue velvet seating and little interesting items behind the bar.We ordered fries that looked like they had some type of seasoning on them but were just plain fries. Friend 1 ordered the chicken sandwich and fries. She enjoyed it. It was served with yummy sauces on the side.Friend 2 ordered the chicken quesadilla. Also enjoyed it. Was a good portion.I had the focaccia grilled cheese with vodka sauce. It was tasty. The 3 pieces didn’t look like much but it was actually filling. It was some type of special/secret menu item. It was delicious.The playlist/sonos set up was hitting. The music was really good and the staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. We asked what we should get and our waiter had OPTIONS! He knew the menu well and all the little off the record stuff that sounded delicious a.For drinks I ordered the mule. My friends had a gold digger and a margarita. The drinks were tasty. They had funky names and interesting ingredient. One of the drinks had air as an ingredient and another was served in a very cute cat cup. They also sent out a round of shots, limonada something, which was delicious as well.The vibe was cute and food and drinks were tasty. I’ll definitely come back.

Came here for Sunday brunch. Portion size was surprisingly decent and delicious. Service was exceptional. One order was taken incorrectly and the manager/owner was very apologetic and gave it to us on the house while they went and brought out the correct order. That's the type of service that will keep us coming back. Had the Bloody Mary and it was good with the perfect amount of spiciness for us. All-in-all a great find in Bayside nestle among a sea of restaurants.

Cute restaurant that serves Mediterranean fusion food. Our favorite dish was the burrata bites. We also loved their drinks - they were super creative and yummy!

Great drinks and music. Bartenders know their stuff. Come back for another round soon.

This was my second time dining at this establishment. The staff was great, Ceasar took care of us, he was so pleasant. He knows the menu well and made great recommendations. The food was excellent. Baraki will be a go to spot for my family and friends.
Was excited to try this place out, but after doing so, really makes you wonder if it's just a bad front for the sushi speakeasy spot behind it. The drinks were very mediocre, as was the food, and incredibly over priced. I went with three people and only one enjoyed the specialty cocktail they got (the sangria-based one), and all of the food was nothing special at all - you could do much better at the Greek spot right next door. I had the chicken pita tacos and was underwhelmed at the amount of meat, and the other entrees and appetizers were equally disappointing. The service is great and the ambiance was as well, but for the price and quality, there are so many places you could go on Bell.

I've passed this place a few times and I checked the menu I thought uhhh it's okay but what drew me in were the craft cocktails. This place was great! Staff and ambience. Small place but clean and damnnnn the drinks and food were good! The Honey Honey was delicious, The gold digger I liked as well and the pretty penny was a hit. The Brussels sprout side dish delicious, the bao bun gyros I was skeptical about but they were good, filet minion skewers cooked perfectly fresh fries and saganaki cigars and don't forget the spicy mango shrimp!! We will be going back!!

This is an incredible restaurant - especially for date night! The food is great, the staff is incredible, and the atmosphere is impressive.While we were walking to the restaurant, we ran into this incredibly friendly lady who happened to be the owner's mother - after witnessing how friendly she was, we were even more excited to try this place out.Alfonso (our waiter/bartender) was incredibly attentive and helped us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in. He suggested drinks, dishes, and even sat down to share his story and motivations with us around the restaurant.We got the popcorn shrimp as an appetizer, it was delicious. For entrees, we got the chicken and waffles and chicken baraki - both were amazing. For dessert, we had the greek egg rolls which were amazing.As for drinks, if Alfonso is making them, you can't go wrong.Shout out to this incredible restaurant on a crowded street. They stand out, for good reason.

Great food with great warm and friendly service from the host to the waitress. This is Greek fusion at it's finest. The music can get loud but it can be fun. My filet mignon skewers were melt in your mouth delicious so so good they come with fries and a great deal price wise. My husband's Gyro bao bun was delicious. The saganaki appetizer was excellent - not a fan of too much of the spicy jam on top - for those who are sensitive to spice ask for it on the side. They serve Peroni beer - tasted for the first time so crisp and delicious - Drinks were on point. Would definitely come back here to try dessert!
