“We were a group of 7 that included two elderly parents, a 7 year-old, and a newborn, to celebrate my mom's birthday. Both the hosts and our waiter went out of their way to help us and make this a special dinner for my mom and our family. Every dish we ordered was great, both the preparation and the taste, including the appetizers, entrees, and the dessert. Nothing was too heavy or overdone. Our waiter was very understanding and accommodated the various dietary preferences and restrictions at the table. She helped us with the surprise at the end for my mom. Overall, this was a very positive experience and I am grateful to our waiter for her patience throughout the night. 100% recommend.“

“Amazing food! Wonderful service and Chef Marie Loi is a joy! My new “must go when I’m in NY” restaurant!“

“The food was good but portions quite small for the price. (The half chicken was more of a quarter chicken.). The atmosphere is nice. If there are charges on my bill for items I never asked for and never received, then I am going to give you a maximum 3 for service - and thats what happened. (Reminder: always check your bills. Always. These days it seems like at least half of my dinner bills have incorrect items added.). Hostesses were very nice.“

“We would like to thank the Avra Team for the wonderful experience we had celebrating our son's 1 year old birthday and his grandparents 40th wedding anniversary. Beautiful place for special celebration! Sophisticated ambience, attentive staff, exceptional service, delicious Greek food! We highly recommend making reservation in advance!“

“I love the food, and the vibe and service were great. But for an average sized branzino, I didn’t expect to pay $68. Everywhere else in NYC, branzino typically costs around $36–$42 max.
I’ll definitely go back, but I wouldn’t order the branzino again.“

“Great atmosphere. Fantastic food.“

“Best authentic Greek in NYC. Top notch service. Thank you for the complimentary desserts!!“

“Live music events and dinner“

“My friend and I had the most gorgeous dinner at Gaia last Tuesday. We ordered a fantastic Piniot Nior followed by Organic chicken and potatoes with a side of spinach. My friend had steak, all cooked perfectly. The restaurant had a warm and welcome atmosphere. Conveniently located next to the hotel we where staying in, the Gregorian.“

“Really enjoyed the wonderful service, people, and great food! The rack of lamb was incredible! The service was amazing and very attentive. We really enjoyed the suggestions our server provided about places to visit in Turkey - he was very kind. Sea Salt is definitely worth future visits!“

“your Chicken Soup And Your Kindness“

“We first heard about Tony’s on Jon Barr’s YouTube channel (prepping for our first NYC visit). Can only say that this is the perfect spot to get food, and then go eat it in Central Park.

Both times we visited the food was great, staff was very friendly & we received our orders within a couple of minutes.

The memorable comment from my girlfriend - “I want to move to NYC because of Tony’s”“

“The food was so delicious! I’m so thankful because I was having a terrible day and really needed something fresh.

The spanakopita slice was huge and came with lemon potatoes! The filling for the spanakopita was stuffed and the pastry was so flaky. I was actually contemplating ordering a side of the lemon potatoes but decided not to, so I was so happy to see them included with the spanakopita. The potato’s were sooo flavorful. The tzatziki had plenty of fresh cucumber and tasted amazing! I also got the lamb gyro, which is only $11 on Uber Eats… definitely a fair price. It was flavorful and packed with veggies and lamb. I thought the portions were perfect, and everything tasted great. I even have enough left over for another meal later. I will say the food was a little on the salty side, but I love sodium lol. Thank you guys for making me such a delicious meal!“

“The whole vibe with Greek auntie felt like I was actually in Greece . All that was missing was the Aperol spritz. The food was incredible and while we had to wait to get a table the wait is worth it. Everything is cooked with love and you can tell. I recommend the branzino .“

“Delicious eats, great service. I stop here often when in park slope.“

“Muy buena atención y la comida excelente“

“We celebrated our 33 year wedding anniversary. The food, the ambience, the staff and the cocktails were amazing. This is one of our favorite places to dine in when we are in New York. If you're looking to celebrate something special, this is a very elegant place to celebrate. “

“Family Corner is an amazing cozy family restaurant that my friends & fam have been going to for decades! It’s like “Cheers” where everyone knows each other’s name! The food is made fresh homemade with ♥️Love everyday! Their food is so tasty and the portions are generous. The staff & owner makes you feel part of their family. It’s intimate diner throw back to another time atmosphere is refreshing! The traditional Greek food is out of this world and very reasonably priced. And it has a thriving takeout/ delivery business. Neighborhood eateries like The Family Corner - is what makes our Astoria community great!!!“

“Great Greek food and very nice restaurant. Very slow though. We weren’t in a hurry and chatted a long time but still took an ungodly long time to get our food. I’ve been to many European countries, numerous states, and all up and down the east coast. Slowest restaurant ever. Otherwise it was great!“

“For those with taste buds that were refined summering in Greece for many years, the taste of the souvlaki pita is unmistakably familiar. Warm pita break, pork pieces cut small, just the right amount of tzatziki, and, of course, French fries. The only question that remains is whether to order two, or go directly for three. They have other great dishes too, but the pita is a must.“

“I love Pi I enjoy getting my Greek frappe and other coffees from Pi. The pastries are exceptional and if you want to have lunch, you can also have fantastic Greek dishes. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the coffees and food that they serve. I go to Pi every time I’m in that neighborhood.“

“First, I must give a shout out to our server Anastasios. He was very friendly and made certain we enjoyed our dining experience. From the attention to detail, welcoming service to the presentation and taste of every dish. It's clear that the team takes genuine pride in creating a memorable experience for their guests. The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with care. I will certainly return to the restaurant.“

“This was my first time and it’s not my last! The food was 10/10! The drinks were delicious and the ambiance was cozy with an upscale feel! Our waiter, Samba, was the most kindest and wonderful server. He was patience, attentive and offered incredible suggestions when we needed. We took all his suggestions and loved each one! The Strawberry Basil Bellini he made was to die for! I’m excited to bring more people to this Greek paradise and work with Samba again! ❤“

“Amazing lunch and very friendly 😀“

“Great Greek restaurant. Awesome service. The owner is a gentleman. Also you feel like you are in Greece. Strongly recommend“

“Overall great experience, would come back! Loved the pita and the kitchen was kind enough to let me swap lemon potatoes for Greek fries for the chicken. The Pure Passion cocktail was also great. It got busier into the night so I understand why the staff was rushing us a bit, but I’m excited to try more food on their menu!“

“Great restaurant! Great food! Great staff! We love it. We ate there 3 times in 24 hours.“

“I came here with a friend for restaurant week in early August. It’s been a little over a month since I’ve been here and I’m still dreaming of it! The food was amazing, and the service was top notch. I’d highly recommend the seafood orzo and the orange cake (I’ve been looking for recipes for these two dishes so I could recreate it at home). Try to get a seat outside because the view next to the water was amazing.

Originally came here for the restaurant week deal, but will be returning to try food off their everyday menu.“
