“Fantastic speakeasy sushi joint. Very small, no more than an handful of people may join the omasake style bar where 3 talented (and cool) chefs serve you the best crafted sushi you can get. Definitely going back soon.”
“Both excellent food, and service. Highly recommended! Attentive service by Adnan.”

“We are so excited that this amazing Tibetan restaurant reopened in a new location after the original location burned down in February 2021. The support of the community helped make it possible for them to continue serving delicious food in Jackson Heights. It’s as good as we remember, and the staff members are so kind. Please support our favorite Tibetan restaurant if you have the chance. You won’t regret it! 🥰”
“I live in the neighborhood and come here often. The food is always consistently delicious. Best place for tacos, even the Birria which has the famous truck a block down. Serious always good, happy hour a huge plus. I don’t know authentic Mexican, but I’d bet this is pretty darn close. Must try.”
“Loveee the NEW halal Thai gem that is now in Jackson Heights!!
They were originally located in woodside but now moved into a bigger, chic new space on 37th Avenue, bringing Southern Thai flavors to the Jackson Heights neighborhood! My mom loves this place!
Here’s what we tried:
• Curry puffs
• Fried firecracker shrimp rolls
• Chicken lollipops
• Mango salad
• Beef Pad Kee Mao
• Chicken Panang Curry
• Chicken Tom Yum Fried Rice
• Whole red snapper
• Mango sticky rice
Everything was delicious and the presentation was just as impressive! As someone who grew up in Jackson Heights, I love seeing local spots grow and bring more delicious halal food options to Queens!”
“We ordered for the first time tonight from Sammy, former proprietor of JuJu’s Bagels now transformed into El Toum. We ordered 4 items and they were ready for pickup in less than 25 minutes. The Mixed Kebab platter, Kofta Burger with fries, Falafel Sandwich with extra tahini sauce, and El Toum Appetizer were refreshingly homemade, tasted delicious, and proved outstanding bangs for the buck. More than enough food for a family of four with leftovers. This is a very welcome addition to a neighborhood missing this kind of fare. I highly recommend supporting this local business. Some of the best falafel and tabouli I’ve tasted in quite some time too!”

“Absolutely loved everything! 10/10 experience from start to finish. The sushi was incredibly fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The service was excellent and the whole experience felt special. Every bite was worth it! Definitely a place I would come back to and recommend.”
“Very small Pizza Parlor with good pizza. They also have some other things on the menu. Their Tiramisu is extremely small, especially for $6. The service is good and the price for the Large Pie (8 slices) is reasonable. The place is good for pick up or for getting delivery. Too small for anything else”

“This food truck serves some of the heartiest momo on the streets of Jackson Heights. We got 8 thick and meaty beef momo for $8 at Amdo Kitchen. The go-to sauces here are the red sauce and white sauce. The halal momo are complimented with a thicker, chewier dough than other momos - it takes me three bites to finish each one. Amdo Momo is a favorite for those looking for an authentic taste of Tibetan cuisine. Don't forget to ask for the side of radish!”
“Is this place an amazing Mexican joint, yes, do I wish I lived in New York so I could forget about this place find it again and have my taste buds blown off their …. Tuckus. Yes yes I do. Worth the stop. Empanadas so so good. Short ribs absolutely. Random menu item sure it’s gonna be amazing. Do it you won’t regret it.”
“This deli is great and has a various selection of snacks and sandwiches. Took one star off because it said the sausage egg and cheese was 5 dollars on the poster but it was actually 7 dollars. But also the guy at the counter was chill and let me pay even though i didnt have enough money. I love going here whenever i want a snack”
“Me and my boyfriend went out to eat here. Lately we have been trying new foods they offer like this yummy rice with beans and chicken. Chicken pieces were nice and big I loved it! With some of my favorite banana. They look kinda burned but honestly I don’t mind because it taste better. Around $14 for this so it’s a steal. It filled us both up”
“Ive gone to colombian bakeries and so far, this place has the best pan de Bono I have tried! Its so soft and perfect amount of cheese. I will say the empanadas didnt taste as fresh. The chocolate was really tasty. The waitress was also really nice, along with the atmosphere!”
“It’s very good and surprising cheap for being next to a large subway station.
Parking: Roosevelt Avenue is one of the most busy roads nearby. Jackson Heights is a very busy neighborhood. Good luck if you need to find parking.
Kid-friendliness: The place is kid friendly.
Wheelchair accessibility: The place is wheelchair accessible.”
“I'm going to give my opinion based on the taste of the food as I only make the delivery.. Now the flavour is excellent and this is my starting point for Middle Eastern food and Americans. It's perfectly worth a try... The reason why I gave 5is because I ordered a small amount of food and I received a large portion.”
“The best there IS in Queens‼️ excelllllllllent food, friendly service, room full of energy. Love this place.”

“Nossa que delícia! The buffet is full of fresh options with variety. Super healthy and flavorful food. They had mousse de Maracuja—my favorite!! The mandioca was nice and crispy. Just perfection. The farinha was delicious. Customer service was great and the place was so clean. I’ll be coming back to sit down soon. A hidden gem!! I feel like I’m back in Brazil!”
“La Nueva Bakery is an amazing place. The bakery items are delicious, always fresh, and full of flavor. Their cakes are beautiful and well made — each one feels unique and carefully crafted. The service is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff that make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The space itself is cozy and inviting, perfect for enjoying a coffee and something sweet. I especially love coming here for their classic Colombian and Uruguayan bakery, which is hard to find and always so well done. Highly recommended — it’s definitely a place you’ll want to visit again.”
“Was very lucky to be invited to this beautiful restaurant to celebrate my friend b'day
It's their favorite spot to eat and now I understand why food was so delicious and they were friendly and very attentive they sure did make my friend b'day special very grateful for that🙏💙 will definitely recommend to family and friends can't wait to go again”
“(Translated by Google) This time I give him 4 stars because I give him 4 and not 5 is because I always liked to buy aii the cakes and bread ? now the three milk cake that I bought yesterday Friday, October 9 in the afternoon the cake did not come out fresh It was like dry eye with that to the owner of the bakery if one pays for a cake the cake must be fresh(Original)Esta ves le doy 4estrellaa x que le doy 4 y no 5 es x que siempre me a gustado comprar aii las tortas y el pan ? ahora la tarta de tres leche que compre ayer viernes 9 de octubre en la tarde no me salio fresca la tarta estuvo como seca ojo con eso al dueño de la panadería si uno paga x una tarta la tarta tienen que ser frescas”
“Stopped by for the veg chow mein and really enjoyed it. The flavor was great, well seasoned and tasty. It came to around $12 total, and honestly the portion felt a little small for the price. I wish they'd give a bit more, but the taste made up for it and I'll definitely be coming back to try more dishes.
Tip for other customers: pay with cash if you can, since card payments come with an extra fee.
Overall, a good spot for Indo-Nepali food in the area. ⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Never disappoint!! Came here many many times so consistency if you want real Thai foods !!! Authentic im really mean it !! Hot is real Thai Hot !! Dont be Ego you can’t take it not cool man. Here it real Thai foods!!”

“I love Hombres, I have been going there for over 10 years. The atmosphere is always amazing, the patrons are great to be around, the music is amazing and the whole staff is top notch. I have had many memorable nights here! My favorite time to go is happy hour, especially on Thursday! Santiago is the bartender at that time and he is a fantastic bartender!! He always makes you feel welcomed and that smile is always a pleasure to see!!! I would advise anyone looking for a pleasant evening in Jackson Heights, to swing by Hombres, especially on a Thursday for happy hour! You will definitely enjoy yourself!”
“My second time trying this place, food portions are big, we ordered; one appetizer and one entry, it was enough for two. About $80 to $100 per person. Steak tastes fresh though ordered temperature both times was not accurate. I prefere medium well but we got a medium rare, however I am not picky, it still was delicious, maybe a tad more seasoning would hit the spot.
SERVICE: Ok
FOOD: A solid 4 stars, Tastes fresh, shrimps where cooked PERFECTLY, I am not a big fan of tostones (flied plantain flats,) HOWEVER their tostones, I could eat all day. They are THE BEST tostones i have ever tried. They Guacamole is really good, and goes perfect with the tostones.
ATMOSPHERE: Relaxed, welcoming, some light music might go very well.”
“Fusca House is easily one of the best spots in Jackson Heights. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. You can tell they actually care about quality — every bite hits. Portions are solid, prices are fair, and the taste never disappoints. The staff is friendly, the vibe is chill, and the food comes out fast. I’ve been here multiple times and it’s been consistent every single time, which is hard to find. If you’re in the area and want really good food, this place is a must.”
“I am from South Africa and we were in New York for a week after a bicycle trip.
We stayed in Jackson Heights, and on our final night before leaving, we ate at Empanadas Mix.
We had Cachapa and it was delicious!
Service was great too!
Thank you for a yummy meal to end our time in NYC.”
“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.”
“This is my go to spot for seafood boil. They’re generous with the seasoning and the drinks are amazing. May always get the virgin mango daiquiri and it’s perfect with the boil.”

“The best and authentic momo in the city. Had an amazing time and food after a heavy day. Their staff were so kind and helpful, had a little chit chat with the girl in the cashier, she was so helpful. They made my mood happy after all the stress throughout the day. Thank you. Will visit again.”
“Tried Food Junction for the first time and honestly the food was really good. Everything tasted fresh and you can tell they cook it on the spot instead of just reheating food. The shrimp was seasoned perfectly, the rice had a lot of flavor, and the fries were crispy too. The portions were good and the food came out hot and fresh.
What I liked most is that they have a little bit of everything. Pizza, burgers, platters, drinks, fries, and all kinds of food, so there’s something for everyone. Plus everything is halal which makes it even better. Definitely a spot worth trying if you want fresh food with good flavor and decent portions.”
“We always come and get whole bag of Selroti when we visit NY. No other place makes sel like them. And if you have not had or know what Sel is it’s regarded as Nepali Dougnut but personally it’s something completely different. Chia and Sel combo is the best and this is the place to get.”
“Longtime customer, over 15 years and this food is so consistent. The best shrimp egg foo young by far. I often order delivery and the food is always piping hot which I appreciate. Prices are always fair and I hope nothing but good things for the people here. They have fed me through many hard times.”
“Every once in a while when I crave street meat that reminds me of the old days I’ll come to some of these kind of carts. Ordered chicken and rice about $8 for a pretty heavy platter. Overall seasoning was good, bed of yellow rice. Salad was very what ever.
Takes 5 minutes to make. Price is great. Atmosphere is messsyy if you know the area. The person making it is kind and to the point.”
“What an awesome meal! We ordered two arepas, both GF, and maduros. Beautiful space. Impeccable service. They gave us a choclo with cheese and an aperitif on the house. We’ll be back.”

“We were in the city to enjoy some dosas but my first choice didn’t have air conditioning and we were in the middle of a heat wave!!
So we were really bummed about not getting a dosa when we almost passed this life saver by because we couldn’t see the tables inside in the back.
We had a great experience. The food was fresh and tasty. The dosa rocked. The kulfi, not so much. But I’d go back.”

“Amazing Pizza: A New York City Favorite
Pizza is one of the foods most closely associated with New York City. From small neighborhood shops to famous pizzerias, pizza has become part of the city’s culture and everyday life. Among the many places that serve pizza, Amazing Pizza, also known as Champions Pizza, represents the kind of local restaurant that attracts customers through its simple but satisfying food, convenient location, and familiar New York-style experience.
One of the most appealing things about Amazing Pizza is its straightforward approach to pizza. A good New York slice does not need to be complicated. The combination of a crisp but foldable crust, melted cheese, flavorful tomato sauce, and the right amount of seasoning can create a meal that is both inexpensive and enjoyable. Whether someone is grabbing a quick slice during a busy day or ordering several pies for a group, pizza can easily fit into the fast-paced lifestyle of New York City.
Another important part of a neighborhood pizzeria is the experience it provides. Local pizza shops are more than places where people simply purchase food. They can become familiar parts of a neighborhood, where customers return because they know what to expect. The ability to walk into a pizza shop, order a slice, and eat it within minutes is one of the small experiences that makes New York’s food culture unique.
Amazing Pizza also represents the broader history of pizza in New York. Pizza became deeply connected to the city because it was affordable, convenient, and adaptable to different communities. Over time, the New York slice became recognizable around the world. Restaurants like local pizzerias continue that tradition by serving food that does not require a special occasion. Pizza can be eaten after school, after work, before going out, or simply because someone is hungry.
Ultimately, the appeal of Amazing Pizza is not only about the pizza itself. It is about the combination of food, convenience, neighborhood culture, and the New York experience. A simple slice can represent something much larger: the city’s fast pace, diverse communities, and long-standing love for pizza. That is what makes neighborhood pizzerias an important part of New York City culture.”
“Amazing place and amazing people :) Was with a big group of friends looking for somewhere to celebrate after a friend’s wedding and this was the perfect spot! Hosts were super accommodating, kind, and fun! Drinks were fantastic as were the momos. Definitely a spot to come back to!”
“Move over Chipotle and Taco Bell there is a new player on the Mexican food scene Adobo has arrived with fresh and very tasty items on their menu.There are favorites taco, burritos and bowls where you make your dish. The amount of food is ample fir the price charged. The staff is warm, welcoming and genuinely happy to see you. I love this place. It will be my go to Mexican food place. If you want tasty good quality Mexican food this should be your first place to go.Its now my favorite spot for Taco.Just so you know their Guacamole is freshly made and that's where their similarity to Chipotle ends.Adobo Mexican Grill is so much better. Try it and see.”
“I live nearby and came across Buddha Bar while finding a place to chill and catch up with my friend. Really ended up enjoying the service! Our server Lhamo greeted with bright smile every time she brought our food.
Some bars doesn’t have food/snacks so its good to snack on something while drinking.
Would definitely come back and bring friends 😉”
“Nova Sushi is the most affordable restaurant I've come across. The portions are very generous — at other places I'd need to spend $50 to feel full, but here $20 does it. All the ingredients are super fresh, and the staff patiently walk you through all the different dishes. They also offer delivery. If you're nearby and craving sushi or hibachi, give this place a try — you won't regret it. Great value, big portions, guaranteed to fill you up.”
“Amazing, nuanced, fresh and delicious food every time. Can’t wait for the Brussels sprout salad to come back.”
