New American Restaurants near Forest Hills, NY

“Excellent selections of wine with plenty of expert suggestions. The food is inventive and designed to go with the wine. The family that owns, prepares and serves is warm and welcoming. My FH favorite!“

“Great family owned business and it was built by Tap King. The tap lines for the beers are always clean and the beers and food are great.“

“Delicious food! Definitely coming back on date night!“

“Went here for the first time after living in the area for over 7 years. Staff was amazing from the moment we walked in to when we walked out. Bank was such a great help in recommending different dishes that we never experienced, she was absolutely amazing and kind. The food was 10/10 so glad we took one of her recommendations. Will definitely be back again to try some more dishes!“

“Loved every dish- fluke with black tea, mint and peach(who knew raw fish and fruit went so well together?), amazing grilled artichokes and grilled eggplant. Barely touched my pasta with preserved lemon because I was full, but it was delicious. My daughter’s burger was iconic. The Platonic ideal of hamburgers. Coffee was also delicious. If we had not made a plan to go to La Cabral for dessert and more coffee, I am sure dessert would have been equally excellent.Service was excellent and our waitress was knowledgeable and interested in the food.The fluke reminded me of the first time I went to USC in 1988. I had a plate with raw marinated tuna, raw salmon and raw scallops. The little heaps of fish were so pretty on the plate with their contrasting colors.“

“I had a wonderful experience here celebrating someone’s birthday! The staff were very attentive and every dish was a hit.

We splurged for the 14 day aged duck and it was so worth it — it’s now my favorite duck I’ve had in NYC! I’d recommend coming with st least 4 people if you order it.

The pan con tomate and frog legs were surprise hits for me, and I loved the chai tres leches cake for dessert.“

“So beautiful and so delicious!!“

“Honestly the design of the place is beautiful. It’s in the cut but when you walk in you wouldn’t imagine what you see. I got the bottomless mimosa special that comes with an entree which was good. The food I had was amazing. Our waitress was so attentive as well. I would come back here again for sure. I can only imagine what it’s like for dinner or lunch“

“Strongly recommended! Perfect meal. Every dish was perfect mixed of flavors; and portions. And the service added on the amazingness of this place. We are looking forward to next season’s menu.“

“This is what we call “fine dining.” We did not reserve the main dining room, as one of our party did not care for prix fixe. We opted for the lounge as you can have from the menu or prix fixe. When you first arrive, you are greeted by a pleasant hat/coat check lady. We arrived early and said we would wait for the other couple and were invited to wait in the intimate cocktail area. The cocktails were superb and served with a house-made cocktail snack. When the guests of the party arrived, we were escorted to the lounge area. An intimate area with about six to eight tables. After being seated and greeted by the head server (maître d' or captain), who explained our options, we all opted for the menu. After looking at all the choices, we decided to split two appetizers. Even though the number of items on each choice was uneven, the server said, “Let me take care of it". And then beautifully presented plates arrived with equal portions. And it only got better from there. The entrées were each explained in detail, including their origins and how they were prepared. I could go on and on. The fish, beef, duck breast, and pork were everything we expected and more. We all commented, maybe the best we have had. The house made desserts were perfect. I had possibly the best cheese plate I have ever had. The entire staff of servers were professionals and enhanced the evening. The most disappointing part of the evening was when a guest entering the dining room (after removing his overcoat) came in dressed in Dockers and a short-sleeve polo. This is an insult to the owner, the chef, and the entire staff at this fine restaurant. But maybe he was an elite or a “special” person. We all said we would be back.“

“Went to Meadowsweet restaurant for dinner with my family. We had an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were so attentive, helpful and nice. The food amazing!recommend this restaurant! We will be returning soon.“

“Lingo was the perfect choice for a special celebration. I brought my daughter here and the night was great. It’s a beautiful space, genuinely warm and personable staff, and excellent Japanese-inflected food with a creative twist.

We did have one miss: the ribs were too fatty for our taste. But here's where Lingo service stepped in. Without any fuss, they took the dish off the bill and were so gracious about it. That kind of hospitality is rare and says a lot about how they run their restaurant.

Everything else was delicious and the vibe was just right for a celebratory dinner. I'll absolutely be back.“

“This was a fantastic experience! From the moment we stepped inside, the staff was courteous, engaging, helpful and knowledgeable. We had a party of 3, and ordered 6 dishes. Each dish came out as it was made and each dish was absolutely delicious. A person in our party had a gluten allergy which was no problem and accommodated with ease. We come to NY every year and this will absolutely be a place we revisit again and again! Vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike will appreciate the dishes and be amazed with the taste! Highly recommended!“

“Blown away by interior design, topped with finger-licking food, friendly service, and such a well crafted drinks!“

“💯👌 Drinks ✅ Food ✅ Vibe ✅“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Elevated yet approachable, with spot-on attention to detail. Creative cocktails and draft beer. Seasonal and unique take on traditional cuisine, and on top of it all, truly genuine hospitality. Muchas gracias, Ravi, Maddie and Gloria. You are absolutely killing it here.“

“Came here for brunch. I got the BLT and my friend got the Turkish Eggs, and we shared a green salad. I also ordered a Hugo Spritz to drink.

The decor is beautiful and the food is good. The service was fine. My drink was way too flat. I could tell the champagne in it was old. My other issue is with the prices. I paid $25 for a BLT and it came with nothing (I had to order fries separately). I guess the area is kind of expensive but I still think $25 for a plain sandwich is unnecessary (and you can see how small the sandwich is).“

“The food and service were impeccable.😍“

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

“Consistently good service! Our server Christian was great.“

“We always have such a great time at Caviar Russe. The guys there are always friendly and take the time to guide you around the menu and assist with selections. Some of the best service in the city! The caviar is always excellent. If you have the time stop in for lunch. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Great food and staff. Damien was a pleasure to talk to. Great addition to the team. Best of luck to everyone“

“A chic bar with elegant Gatsby themed vibes throughout.“

“The food at Tuome definitely was super delicious. We got the restaurant week menu, which was a decent amount of food. The deviled eggs in particular were very tasty, with the chili crisp adding a lot of nuance to the classic dish. The snow crab noodles also stood out as incredibly buttery and good. I would absolutely come back and recommend this restaurant to others for the food quality. It felt like a lovely Chinese American meal.

On service, the waiters and manager were extremely nice, but it was a little lacking for a Michelin star. Only 1 additional course, no takeaway goodie bags, and the restaurant itself did not give a fine dining atmosphere. Dress code seemed to be maybe a step below business casual. Nothing to complain about, but I wouldn’t write home about it either.“

“How is it possible that I didn’t review 4747lic here before?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Every time I go there for weekend brunch, I have to return for dinner! I just can’t get enough of the place. Their Dutch baby “Primadonna” pancake and lobster roll are to die for. Much of what is on the menu it’s imported from Italy of the finest ingredients. It’s always fun to take the ferry across from Manhattan to the Pepsi Cola Sign and walk a couple of blocks. They can accommodate large groups, children, pets, wheelchairs, (you name it) at their outdoor seating. Run there. 😊💕“

“Finally able to visit and so happy I did. My drink, Dutch Revival, is my new favorite cocktail. The winter flatbread was delicious. Loved the vibe and hospitality.“

“Best pancakes on the eastern seaboard! Absolutely delicious maple butter! It’s the best breakfast anywhere in the world!!! 🥞🧇🥓🍁🧈🦋👐“

“Great wine selection by the glass with some really interesting U.S. options - the Sonoma Pinot Noir was a highlight for me. I had the Restaurant Week dinner menu which was fantastic value for money. Service was super professional and friendly. Nothing to complain about!“

“One of my favorite NYC restaurants!!!!“

“What a treat to stumble upon Parker & Quinn! It was an intimate atmosphere and a perfect night for me and my 10-year-old daughter. The kids’ menu was so good (the pasta was homemade and so delicious that I had to enjoy a few bites!), and my margarita flatbread was incredible. Great service from our server and another gentleman (the manager?) who came over multiple times to check on us. I highly recommend you check this out if you’re looking for something away from the hustle and bustle and generic nature of Timed Square. Chef’s kiss!“

“It was a pleasure dining here and I will return 😊 . From service aupon entry to ambience and the star as it should be was the delicious quality of food 👌. Burrata was as authentic is it comes, the Chilean Sea Bass was off the boat fresh and miso teriyaki flavoring was perfectly balanced and do not miss out on their truffle burger 😋“

“Amazing food and wine. Excellent service!“

“Iconic and inspired Upper West Side Eatery/Music avenue. I love the live music there, they have it 6 nights a week! Really good food & cocktails as well! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼“

“Overall a great time. I started at the bar and the bartender Kate was beyond rude. Too bad she made good drinks. Once my guests arrived, I moved to a table. Our server Gabriela was a gentle gem and directed us toward the best items on the menu. I will NOT return to a bar seat due to the stiff bartender. Table service is attentive and takes care of you.“

“Purely epic. All about it!“

“Our lunch was delicious! Although it was not a nice day we were able to eat outdoors. They do have a heater, which made it very comfortable. Good service, too!“

“Super unique and delicious maple praline brown butter pancakes! More cake than pancake. The wait was not long to get a table and the service was prompt, professional, courteous, and didn’t leave us in want of anything. All of our needs were met. Food was prepared much quicker than expected and was all very good! I would definitely recommend this!“

“Waiter was extra kind and friendly!! Meal was delicious. Thanksgiving away from home. Atmosphere very nice.“

“a great experience . high quality food“

“The Pork Belly Bao Buns were freaking amazing!!!!“

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!“

“Delicious food, great service, amazing ambiance… Highly recommended!“

“I love this place. will join again“

“this place was truly phenomenal! the grilled branzino was to die for and the spicy crab linguini was amazing!! i also loved the fried calamari! the spicy crispy tuna could be a bit better tho

the service was so attentive and quick, very caring and sweet staff

perfect way to end the day after a fun day at the beach 🌊“

“Had a great time with a group of 7 , good food and good wine“

“Great brunch menu, salmon cured in-house and Rose de Provence on tap! Happy and fast service top off a fabulous visit!“

“Incredible food - one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. The chefs are phenomenal and very personable. I recently ate at Le Bernadin and the food at Pearl rivaled Le Bernadin’s. Highly recommended! I really can’t say enough good things about this place.“

“Very nice location and layout is very welcoming with a lot of outdoor and indoor seating. Quick and friendly staff.

The ricotta starter was amazing with a great balance of flavors.
The Pancakes were beautiful but very dense so didn’t hit the mark for me with the wet gooey texture and large size.
Hash browns were great“

“Food amazing. Great atmosphere. Staff polite and very professional. Tiffany the manager is brilliant.“
