50 Best Cocktail Bars near Bayside

“tasty drinks, talented staff, beautiful ambiance.“

“The $30 AYCE weekday lunch special is a great deal.
I pay an extra $10 to add a whole lobster, so for $40 I'm getting an amazing lunch plus a generous amsoze whole lobster. For me, That's a much better deal than spending over $50 for dinner and no included lobster for that price.

On the other hand if you are more of a snow crab person, The higher price dinner includes that.
still I would look to Wednesdays because I think they may have a BOGO on snow crab (non-AYCE).“

“Came in with some friends around 1am and stayed for an hour. There were two DJs while we were there and both were a vibe. Second one was funny, I showed pictures of bad bunny and elvis crespo and he played songs by them. Drinks were good, wasn’t too crowded, overall vibe was chill but energetic at the same time. We all want to come back again soon!“

“Bareburger is one of my favorite burger spots! Their grass-fed beef burgers are incredible and I love that they truly cater to every dietary need. Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan you name it, it’s all clearly listed on the menu, making it easy for everyone to find something delicious. The sweet potato fries are always perfectly cooked and so tasty. On top of that, the service is amazing. Sadia, in particular, is incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cares about making sure customers leave happy. I highly recommend Bareburger for anyone looking for a delicious, inclusive, and welcoming burger experience.“

“I am absolutely thrilled to share my heartfelt gratitude, on behalf of the Center for the Women of New York (CWNY), for the incredible support we received from Avo Taco during our recent fundraising gala, Taste Around The World Fort Totten. Avo Taco truly went above and beyond, and their contribution made this night truly unforgettable. As an organization that heavily relies on the generosity of local restaurants, we couldn't have asked for a more dedicated and enthusiastic partner than Avo Taco. They not only delivered but exceeded all expectations. Avo Taco's commitment to our cause was evident from the moment they stepped in. Avo Taco brought more than just delicious food to our event; they brought a whole atmosphere of festivity. Their staff's warm and friendly presence added a wonderful touch to the evening. The tacos they served were an absolute delight – bursting with flavor and prepared to perfection. The guacamole paired with tortilla chips was a crowd-pleaser, and their attention to detail, right down to the decorative beads, truly helped create a festive ambiance. Avo Taco's generous contribution played a pivotal role in ensuring the success of our fundraising gala. It's businesses like these that make a significant difference in our community, and their dedication to giving back does not go unnoticed.

“Had a wonderful time celebrating my son’s birthday! Great food, cocktails and company!“

“Best Empanadas in the HISTORY of empanadas! #AyeDiosMio!“

“Delicious fresh food and amazing drinks! Celebrated my friend’s bday there and we had a 12 course menu! Great atmosphere and the DJ was a great touch! Had a great time at Kaizen.“

“May was amazing to us! She made sure we were well taken care of and made sure we were having a great time. 10/10 place! Will gladly return soon!“

“Fantastic food, twist on classic Americana. Great drinks and service“

“Be sure to check out karaoke on Mondays. The karaoke system they use is Karafun. It has a wide selection of songs. The karaoke mics are a little faulty, meaning they will go in and out during your songs.
All the Bartenders are no-nonsense, so it does feel pretty strict, but I'd rather that bartenders who chat too much with their friends and always take smoke breaks...
Drinks are reasonably priced, and the alcohol pour is sometimes too weak.“

“Muy bueno y elegante lugar.“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“Saturday night and we wanted to have something good and different to eat. Google helped to make it ! A great experience ( the service was great) and delicious food ( steak sandwich SUPERBLY DELICIOUS and the chicken one on the second place! But when a dessert time comes it was from another planet!! The most tasty and amazingly delicious handmade vanilla bean ice cream (the one with coconut and some kind of liquor) was the cherry on top of the night. 100 % recommended restaurant“

“Love this place to pieces! Invited all my girls for sing-a-long Saturday and every single person had a blast here. The food is delicious and the vibes are immaculate. Service could be improved but overall the experience is always a 10/10 here. Such an affordable spot to have a fun get together with friends. Will come back again and again!“

“Came here with my partner, the vibes here were amazing, the appetizers were really good, I recommend trying the honey restated wings. Liz was our waitress, she was so nice, made sure we got everything we need. Would come here again. The rum punch is SOO GOOD!!!“

“I have eaten there many times and have always been happy with the food. The staff is very helpful and the restaurant is very relaxing .“

“Dropped in on a whim since parking was available out front. Manager said under new operations and building a new tapas style menu. Food was delicious, steak slightly overcooked but not inedible. Service was good and attentive. Late dinner on weekday, place was empty with only a few of what appeared like friends of staff hanging out at bar. Will not hesitate to visit again and see their progress, seems like they are making the attempt to have a nice resteraunt.“

“From the moment I walked in, I felt right at home. The welcome was warm, genuine, and inviting. The atmosphere made me feel like family from the start. And the food? Absolutely amazing! Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and prepared with love. You can truly tell that they take pride in both their service and their food. I highly recommend this restaurant and can’t wait to come back!“

“Cute cocktail spot nestled in Ridgewood. We were poking around some of the stores nearby and then stopped in for a drink - though we didn’t try, the Monday Greek specials were a pretty good deal, and the cocktails we did order were both good! It’s a unique bar for the area and I’m interested to try the downstairs (bartender said it’s a music / event space) next time when it’s not 5pm on a Monday lol.“

“Had a great experience at Frankie's. They were able to accommodate our party of 11 at the last minute and were very flexible when part of our group were late. We never felt rushed and the staff was attentive. The food was delicious. Would definitely return here the next time we're in town!“

“Cute rooftop bar. Drinks were decently priced. Service was great. Staff was very friendly. A little difficult to find the entrance with a lack of signs. But the place was clean, organized, and had a great atmosphere. Easy to talk, music wasn’t too loud.“

“Amazing food and a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a little slice of Puerto Rico! The flavors are authentic, and every bite takes me right back to my island. The owners have poured so much love into the new location, beautifully painting different stories that showcase the rich history of Puerto Rico. Their dedication to creating a welcoming environment is evident in every detail. I also deeply respect how involved they are with the community—it’s inspiring to see a business so committed to making a positive impact. Highly recommend!“

“Great, fun space! Has a shuffleboard inside. Food was good: the pickled onions are yummy but the fries are mid.

Hope to be back again, found out they do host comedy shows monthly.

Update: they no longer have shuffleboard and I am not sure about the comedy shows BUT their Chicken Cheese Nachos is BANGING!“

“I love to travel, and Revel restaurant in Garden City, NY, is truly one of the best restaurants I have been to. The managerial staff were very friendly and accommodating, the food was excellent, and the service was impeccable. Melissa, our server, explained everything so well, and she took her time with us. The wait staff worked with her seamlessly so that everything came out on time, and our water glasses were always full. The cuisine offered so many different choices, even for vegetarians and vegans. The vegetarian dishes I tried were a myriad of flavors, and it was so nice to experience new creations that I have never had at any other restaurant. Revel’s decor and lighting made us feel like we were somewhere very special but also comfortable. If I lived near this restaurant, I would visit frequently. We loved our experience.“

“The food and drinks are AMAZING! I fell in love with this place! I can’t wait to go back. (I had the best cocktail drink I have ever had in my life!) Thank you so much Artemio for your great service!“

“It’s rare that I rate any place a 5. I really wanted a birria pizza for my birthday but they ran out of birria. Destiny went above and beyond to make it up to me. She surprised me with a bunch of other options that were amazing! Surf and turf tacos, and chicken tinga tacos are a 10/10! Very professional, very sweet!“

“Wow place was amazing, food was delicious , service was excellent. Place is a must come back to for all occasions. music and dancing is also an extra.“

“Wife and I flew into JFK late one Friday. We were famished , it was 1030 by the time we got to Arthur Ave.. We parked and walked , came upon people eating alfresco. We asked if any place was still serving. The "MAN" Vic asked what we would like, from one of the tables. In no time we had a bottle of Vino Tinto in front of us and people were making us try food they were dining on. I felt like I was at my friends ,' THE PIAZZAS " house. The food was excellent and the people better. Can not wait to go back !“

“The second time here... Very nice atmosphere, "real chill"... Very good music. People are kind.... And the girl who works here is so kind and polite. She is awsome. ❤️“

“Chef Kevin @Theranchhousemineola The Food Was Aboslutely DELICOUS!!! From the Chicken, to The Stuffing, to The Rack Of Lamb, To The Clams Casino! ButterNut Squash Ravioli, Mac And Cheese, There Was Flavor In Every Bite! I am Not Surprised, Because I know Chef Kevin Can Cook!!! We Are Ordering For Christmas As Well! Thank You!!!!“

“My experience at this place has always been remarkable very congenial awesome staff overall excellent food no matter what and I can’t wait to come back sincerely, LindaC“

“So happy to find a place near us that offers Gluten Free options for breaded chicken and French fries!! As the parent of a child with celiac it's amazing to find a place that is aware of cross contamination and has a dedicated GF fryer!“

“Staff was very polite, friendly and the food was great and fresh. I highly recommend.“

“I come here all the time and the atmosphere is always welcoming. The service is always superb and they are very professional about the space. Everytime I come to Cowk I always feel welcome and invited to let go and enjoy myself after a long work day.“

“Amazingly delicious food and equally fantastic staff!! We ate there earlier today and were blown away! They even made something that we requested that wasn't on the menu and it was better than we've ever had! The atmosphere was fun and welcoming too! We will definitely be going here regularly and suggest everybody else does too. I promise you won't regret it!!“

“Great food and cool ambiance!“

“Delicious food, good service, and a massive selection of agave-based drinks. Lovely ambiance / decor inside, and the dishes/bowls that they use are also lovely (and for sale, apparently). The place is among the most expensive in the neighborhood by a decent margin, but you certainly do feel like you're having an elevated experience (and the food was surprisingly filling).
We started with the trio of moles which were delicious, though the lightest one they offered did taste surprisingly close to vodka / tomato sauce, they provided tortillas which was nice but not nearly enough (we had to ask for more and then they charged us extra for it, despite not giving us enough the first time). The menu is rather short, so make sure there are things you like before going. The tlayuda with added meat was delicious, as were the tacos (which were $10 each) and the fluke aguachile also good (watermelon in summer is always a welcome treat).“

“great music 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶“

“Great staff! Lots of options to choose from and elderly and kid friendly!“

“My go to place for special occasions. Mike always makes us feel at home. Not only is the food fantastic, but the staff is helpful and kind. They even went out of their way to help my handicap mother get in and out of the car! Food is delicious and tons of variety when compared to the standard Italian restaurant. Great portions and even a decent amount of healthy options. Thank you to the staff for making my night even more special!“

“Love this place . Nice drinks and beautiful environment . Very cute bartenders. Lindo demais . ❤️😎“
