Tapas Restaurants near Flushing, NY

“The place is a vibe. The atmosphere and esthetics is everything. It has a great vintage, cozy, bookstore mature feels with these bold eclectic open frames. Food is good. Well presented but lacks flavor. Where the food lacks in the drinks make up in style. Service is attentive but not amazing. Overall. Great time. Great vibes. Would recommend and go again for the feel, not the food.“

“Among my fave spots around. The atmosphere is electric and they play every game! Enjoy their all-day happy hour, when you can receive five shots for $25 to $40 (depending on your poison of choice). The food is more typical of a pub, but it's great for a quick bite and priced friendly! Highly recommended their bulgogi quesadilla. Couldn’t gate-keep any longer!!“

“Best Persian food in Brooklyn. Perhaps the best Persian food in all of New York or beyond. Thanks — we will be back!
——————
You know a restaurant is excellent when all you’ve had is their artisanal bread served with homemade butter, homemade yogurt turned into a dip, and homemade mortadella—yes, mortadella— and you’re thinking, “wow, I could eat just this, served with a bottle of wine…. I’d be more than satisfied.” And, also at this point thinking “when am I going to come back?”

Not your typical kebab affair. It’s better. I promise. I was introduced to a world of Persian food I’ve never had at a restaurant before at a level of quality that is reserved for fine dining establishments.

This is an elevated dining experience that is meant to be shared. And yes, there is a vibe too. Attention to detail with every dish that the chef explained to me is painstakingly made from scratch —yogurts, marinades, preparation taking days, with ingredients sourced locally. Warm, knowledgeable staff to boot, too.

The drink menu is legit. Think Persian twists on classic drinks—-but executed well, where other twists often fail. The best espresso martini in Williamsburg. Perhaps the city. My wife said the best she’s ever had.“

“El mejor lugar de Manhattan donde puedes encontrar un ambiente acogedor y moderno, con comida deliciosa y la mejor atención“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“If you appreciate fusion sushi, I highly recommend giving this establishment a try. Their all-you-can-eat sushi on Mondays is an excellent option for a refined dining experience. The ambiance was truly wonderful. I visited on a Monday evening with my family, including children, and everything was impeccable. Our server, Patria, provided exceptional service. I requested the Knicks game to be displayed on the television, and she promptly accommodated my request. My personal favorites among the sushi selections were the Volcano roll and the Mar Y Tierra.“

“Nice place food uffff recomendado“

“Amazing Service and Food!
Visited from North Carolina and the owner made sure we had a great experience.
She was right on the dot with wine recommendations and the food was flawless!
Love it will definitely be back to try their Paella !“

“Delicious! Friendly service.“

“delicious food and drinks menu. service was attentive too.“

“Try their Pabellon Arepa! You will forget your name and lose your mind. It is a masterpiece, chef-d'oeuvre. Insanely delicious. And don’t leave it unattended on the table! I am from upstate New York. We have hundreds of Mexican restaurants up there and none of them can make Arepa even close to La Napa’s.“

“Great food and very friendly staff!“

“Come visit you won't be sorry ☺️“

“💥💥💥💥💥 Just discovered a gem! Can’t wait to return. Tucked in on Columbus Av. betw 106/107. Best Mexican food I’ve yet to find in the city. I had the fish tacos! Excellente! Also the best sangria. Our server, Carol, was wonderful. And she gave me a delicious flan desert and everyone sang happy birthday. Thank you Carol and everyone! See you soon!“

“My cousin just had her wedding here and all I can say is FANTASTIC! The staff AMAZING! That lavender drink wow. Everything about my moon was great. Really the staff was so wonderful. Loved the tapas choices, highly recommend a a less formal wedding choice so much fun.“

“This dinner was fantastic.
We took the chef menu - there was not a single dish that I didn’t like.
Usually don’t eat mussels - but they converted me
The seared foie gras was above the top
The ribs incredible
Shrimp mamamia
Cauliflower fantastic
I will definitely come back“

“No need to go downtown for an incredible dining experience! Amazing tapas and drinks (don’t sleep on the Paloma) in a cozy, welcoming space. The brunch on the weekend is also incredible; huevos rancheros were very fresh and authentic, and the duck Reuben sandwich hit the spot. Service was also great— you won’t feel rushed to get out the door. Truly Washington Heights’ best kept secret— always a good idea to book reservations in advance because seating is limited. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Cozy atmosphere and fine dining“

“Did know what to expect but everything was absolutely delicious. I got the Baba Bowl and added avocado and the apple bottom drink was yummy!“

“You get what you pay for in the best possible way. The meal quality was high and priced fairly for the serving size. Their cooking reflected true expertise. The meal and staff exceeded expectations. We plan to come back at our first opportunity!“

“The place has good aesthetics. Their kitchen creates excellent dishes at reasonable costs. The food quality impressed me and the price seemed right for how much I received. The team provides excellent customer care. We found this restaurant truly excellent.“

“The food was so delicious and served to us by the nicest people.

I’ve never had these dishes before and I’m guessing they had the presentation and flavor, which held true to its origins.

I feel lucky that my friends knew about this place.

(A special thank you to the chef, who was eminently compassionate about my friend’s dietary needs.)“

“The menu features food that seems simple but tastes wonderfully complex. The Lexington Social delivers excellence in every aspect. The staff has a level of beauty that's noticeable. The food here deserves high praise. This spot offers apparent skill.“

“Such an incredible experience . Tasting menu was amazing !“

“Muy buen servicio , la comida y los tragos muy ricos el servicio excelente lastima de personas que hacen show cuando ya están un poco tomadas se les pierde todo“

“With Others has been my favorite wine bar in NYC for quite some time. I love stopping in with a few friends for a glass or bottle of wine and some snacks, or booking their Sunday wine school for a fun weekend adventure. I hosted a birthday party in the backyard a few weeks ago. Everything was perfectly handled! Lauren and the staff helped me pre-order wine and food and kept everything running smoothly. Would highly recommend for parties!“

“😊La Giaconda is a friendly restaurant with authentic Italian cuisine. We had a small family Christmas Dinner there and were treated like family. They have an extensive wine list and delicious food.“

“One of the rare bastions of what NYC was and still holding strong by people like Richard. I’m only annoyed I just discovered it in the last year. I was told it’s been ten years since they opened. Get there early and be prepared to wait. Worth the wait. I have yet to have had a bad night and I now try to make it often.“

“I had a really thoughtful and lovely experience here. We were celebrating a birthday and the team - starting with the door guy and then to the lead/captain, whatever they call it. They made sure to help us out in any way possible and I was fully ready to have a typical ny experience, where they just have no patience for groups. Thank you for all of your true and genuine hospitality! <3“

“The food at Djondjon is spot on.... This restaurant is a jewel. The food is amazing, and the hospitality is off the chart. There is free jazz often enough. The quality far surpasses the price. I love their pasta, their fish and their goats which come in various varieties. Their appetizers are yummy. I will continue to patronize this place. I had my Cabrit boukannen ( grilled goat) and it really pleased my taste buds.“

“Addictive Wine & Tapas is a great place to go for an after-work drink, or for a light meal with great tapas. The wine selection is extensive, the service is great, and the personal attention from the owners makes everyone feel special.“

“This is my favorite place in the entire neighborhood! The service is wonderful, it’s small and intimate, feels like a real gem. It’s got a relaxed non-pretentious atmosphere. I come here on a whim OFTEN. Their signature drink Canelazo is the BEST cocktail i think i’ve ever tasted from anywhere, I crave it frequently, there’s just nothing like it. It’s unique and sexy, ugh, this place is a HIT HIT HIT.“

“The food was great. Ended up here last minute, couldn’t find anywhere open and this place didn’t disappoint. I would eat here again the chef knows his flavors not heavy on anything just perfectly seasoned. Also I have to mention, was confused why no one would come to the table but there is a button on the table that’s labeled press for staff, it should say press to order“

“One of my favorite bars in the neighborhood. Their fries are 💯 must haves! Just hosted my birthday there yesterday and had the best birthday party ever ✨ everyone had such a great time and The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. Josh was so patient and great at planning the food and drinks with me prior it made everything easy.They also have a nice outdoor space in the back.

Can’t wait to come back for some more naked strawberries and fries ❤️“

“We had my daughter's 16 birthday at Dar in Greenpoint. It's a favorite takout spot for us (and occasional dine in spot). It was my girl's choice and it was an EXCELLENT one. The service is wonderful. Everyone was so sweet to us, and there were 18 of us! The food was not a disappointment- fresh, delicious and plentiful. Thank you for such a memorable evening!“

“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.“

“The food is good and service is excellent. We had the price fixe“

“Nice place, nice location, friendly informative staff, great service, good food, good portions. Perfect dining experience. We had the river dog oysters for an appetizer, we split a mickeys salad, and a meg Ryan pizza, espresso was great. The pear brandy was great with the ice cream. Will definitely go back.“

“Fillmore Deli and Backroom is a pretty solid neighborhood spot with a surprising mix of options. The Korean fried chicken is actually really good crispy, flavorful, and definitely worth trying. They also have a large variety of sandwiches, so there’s something for whatever mood you’re in.

One thing that always throws me off though is they tend to run out of the tuna pretty often, which is strange for a deli. But besides that, everything else seems to be okay. It’s a reliable place to grab a quick bite and the food usually hits the spot.“

“Loved the food and cocktail menu. You can tell that the establishment knows their food, wine, etc and it comes off in the drinks and food!“

“We've walked by Cello many times so happy to finally had a chance to go for dinner. The host and hostess took great care of us, letting us sample wines until we picked just the right bottle. The cheese plate was generous and delicious and we highly recommend the flatbreads which were amazing. The atmosphere and vibe was warm and inviting. A great spot to catch up with friends over drinks or date night for dinner. We highly recommend it and we will be going back very soon!“

“Best icon I've had outside of Japan! Bouncy and chew noodles with delicious umami broth that packed a bunch of flavor. Especially loved the gyoza with perfectly crispy bottoms and juicy pork filling

“Incredible food and cocktails! Wonderful service!“

“Porta 23 in Astoria is a great place to enjoy brunch. The food is delicious and well prepared, making every dish very satisfying. The service is excellent, with attentive and friendly staff who make you feel welcome throughout the experience. The atmosphere is calm, cozy, and inviting, perfect for a relaxed brunch with friends or family. One of the highlights is their unlimited drinks option, where for just $23 extra you can enjoy 90 minutes of unlimited beverages with many drink choices available, making the brunch experience even more enjoyable.“

“Altar is a hidden gem in Brooklyn. It is such a quaint space that is packed with well crafted cocktails and some of the best small bites in Brooklyn. Altar has a very distinct personality and you will notice it upon entering. First timers will really feel like they have discovered something special and will definitely be back.“
