However, the lounge was very comfortable. The food quality and selection was excellent. The service was very friendly, I remember a particular friendly host that made sure everyone had everything they needed.”
Restaurants with Delivery

“It’s more of a desert shop. Very tasty. The atmosphere is great too and very clean. The only down fall to the restaurant is the staff. Not welcoming at all and don’t greet you. I’m from out of country and I love to experience new places and I like to go back to restaurants that are friendly and warm, however, I won’t return here because of the staff lack of hospitality.”

“Okay first of all Mashallah 😍. I was born in the generation of Halalbee’s. First off, I got my order quickly! The man I spoke with had a mask on, and the restaurant was perfectly COVID compliant. The food?! AMAZING. Perfectly priced for the quality of what you’re getting. Definitely have the Double Decker with the Maple Beef Bacon! The Panko Chicken Nuggets were crispy, and fresh. The Truffle Fries were seasoned beautifully! Easily one of the most satisfying meals I’ve had in a long time. Excellent portions! I’d love to shake the owner’s hand, but that will have to wait until social distancing is behind us! I’m definitely bringing all my friends, and recommending this spot to my coworkers! No food photo cause I legit inhaled my meal!”

“Let me start with the service was fast and attentive. I ordered steak with seafood (medium rare) and it came in an appropriate time served neatly with a few extras i didnt even notice on the menu. Cooked to perfection which I was happy about. Would love to come back to try all their steaks worth the visit. I went solo but definitely food atmosphere for a group of people. Full service bar even though I dont drink they had enough options to stop in just for a drink. Nice dessert menu to compliment your meal afterwards. Felt like a home away from home. Can't imagine going in and not ordering one of their steaks compliments to the chef!”

Sandwich Shop • $
“This the best Subway restaurants in Queens, NY. They build great sandwiches and do their best keeping the ingredients fresh!The staff great you as you arrive and after getting food there a few times they will remember you. The manager and staff are polite, pleasent and are excellent in serving the customers. They try their best to keep the eating area clean, but there are some very sloppy patrons that leave all their refuse on the tables, but the workers clear away quickly. I try my best to come here only for my sandwiches... Thank you for being wonderful☺🥰”

“This place was a godsend when I had a multi-hour layover in JFK after a long international flight early in the morning; it's very easy to get to by AirTrain and saves you from paying airport prices for the McDonald's breakfast menu when you're still on Asian time and in the mood for dinner - in fact it's cheaper than McDonalds' off-airport prices these days. The staff spoke English and were willing to explain what things were; I had a nice cup of coffee, some tasty empanadas and a fried croquette filled with minced shredded chicken and vegetables. It is a great choice for anybody that has a lengthy layover in JFK during a meal time, especially if you need to change terminals and leave the secured area anyway.”

“I had an amazing birthday celebration on Friday 03/13/26. The food is always superb. The music/DJ was rocking. The service was polite and on point. Felicia, the manager was hospitable, beautiful and extremely accommodating to our guest. And she did it all with that pretty smile. We loved the special effects of the bubbles during our birthday song. I pray for continued BLESSINGS over this establishment,and the CEO/owner. There is no doubt your business will multiply financially, and the recognition grows in and out of the community because of the service and professionalism. and of course because of the food and drinks. 🙏🏾❤️🥰✊🏾 With kindness Victoria, birthday celebrant”

“Honestly, the food here is great. My go to is Honey Chipotle Chicken. Every bite is enjoyable, the portion sizes are large (and cost effective) and the staff are all great to their customers. The small talk doesn't feel forced either.
There's no eating in anymore but honestly it's good that way and I'm all for the business interests so they can keep things running smoothly and I can keep coming back for years to come.”

Halal • $
“This is my go-to spot whenever I’m craving real, flavorful BBQ. Azka BBQ never misses. The meat is always perfectly cooked—juicy, tender, and packed with smoky flavor that actually tastes authentic, not artificial. The seasoning is on point every single time, and you can tell they don’t cut corners with quality.
The portions are generous, especially for the price, which makes it even better. Whether you’re going for a quick meal or coming in hungry, you’ll leave satisfied. The sides complement the main dishes really well too—everything feels thoughtfully put together.
The service is consistently solid. Staff are friendly, efficient, and make you feel welcome without being over the top. The overall vibe is chill and comfortable, making it a place you can keep coming back to without getting tired of it.
Honestly, it’s one of those places where you don’t even need to think twice—you just know it’s going to be good. Definitely a 5-star spot in my book ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

Sushi • $
“I absolutely love this sushi restaurant and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great sushi or roll or both. The sushi and specialty rolls are always fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. One of the best things about this place is that the prices are very reasonable, especially considering how fresh the fish is and how generous the portions are. It's becoming harder to find a restaurant that offers both excellent quality and affordable prices, but this place does exactly that. What really makes this restaurant special, however, is the owner. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm smile and made to feel like family. The owner is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely appreciates every customer. It's clear that they take pride not only in the food they serve but also in creating a comfortable and enjoyable dining experience for everyone who visits. If you're looking for delicious sushi, great value, and outstanding hospitality, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit. I always leave satisfied and look forward to coming back again. Highly recommended!”

“Maria’s Sans Rival cake lives up to the meaning of its name, undoubtedly unrivaled. It was made of sheets of chewy meringue loaded with crunchy cashew nuts, alternating with thick layers of “melt-in-your mouth” buttercream. Glad it was not too sweet that I was able to enjoy large servings of this delightful dessert. Great with coffee or tea.”

They have other baked goods too but I’d say the Haitian meat patties are the star of the show. Super suggest beef. Not the chicken or fish”

Deli • $
“I just got back from a trip to NYC and my brother-in-law treated us to dinner from The Halal Guys in Midtown and I knew it would be good since it was the only food cart with a block-long line after midnight. In fact I liked it so much I wanted to see if I could get something similar nearby... and I found it! I got the chicken and lamb over rice combo and while it wasn't quite the same it was still very good. The only difference is it didn't come with the pita bread and the white sauce tasted a bit different, but not bad. It also has more veggies so more "crunch" but next time I'm going to ask to leave them off (I just don't like the crunch...). I'm very happy to have a local option at a good price and generous portions. Thank you Sam's.”
Pakistani • $
“This place is a must try. The food is so delicious and flavorful. 10/10!!! I like to get the shirazi white sauce (I get it seperately) to put over my food from here and the combo is perfect.”

“I have been eating from here for literal years! My dad introduced me to their food about 10 years ago and I can’t believe I haven’t written a review yet.
The food here is consistently flavorful, fresh, and made with love. It doesn’t matter if I eat in the restaurant or order takeout the food here is always a 10/10! My go to order is the Grilled Shrimp Scampi ( Camarones ) with garlic sauce and white rice with beans. My fiancé always orders their Pernil with rice and beans.
If you are thinking of getting food from here, do it! The staff is super friendly and the food is as good as it looks!”

The ice cream is amazing though. And they piled that stuff on. I couldn't finish it and it took me half an hour to even get halfway through it.
I ordered a small vanilla cup with no toppings.
It's far cheaper than Cold Stone Creamery and almost has the same aspects.
If you loved Mr. Softee's ice cream growing up, those ice cream trucks always going around the block, than this ice cream is for you.”

The food is so fresh and healthy, the dishes delicious and varied each week, and my husband and I always marvel at how great we feel after these meals -- nothing like our (beloved but) heavy Indian take-out in the neighborhood. Especially during quarantine, this has been a true godsend. The chef is so talented, and we love that it's a local family business. Plus amazing customer service, and it's completely customizable week to week, so zero commitment. Highly suggest!!”

“Chill local spot with a Latina/Hispanic vibe. Local DJ with high energy tunes on a Saturday night.. although not crowded be prepared for "Loud" music. Bartenders attentive and friendly with drinks reasonably priced. $5 regular Coronas.. although they have "Mini Coronas" too. $5 Chicken Empanadas was huge.. and tasty too.. Definitely a local crowd..”

“This restaurant is my absolute favorite Bengali restaurant because truthfully all the dishes I tried were phenomenal, from the appetizers to the dessert the quality and tastes were outstanding. They have an extensive menu and the tastiest desserts!! Feels as fresh as the mishti or mithai from back home! my favorite is the Grilled Lamb Chops, the khala buna, kisuri, kebabs/ garlic naan, chicken walima roast and all the desserts. It’s difficult to pick one! Everything is so rich in flavor and tastes so authentic so you get exactly what you’re paying for but more. Servers are always efficient, happy and polite. One thing that stands this restaurant out from others is its ambience and aesthetic appearance. This is the perfect elegant spot for a family dinner, friend gathering or date night! Everyone needs to try it and you’ll realize how much it stands out. Your taste buds will thank you, trust me!!!!”

“Maria’s Sans Rival cake lives up to the meaning of its name, undoubtedly unrivaled. It was made of sheets of chewy meringue loaded with crunchy cashew nuts, alternating with thick layers of “melt-in-your mouth” buttercream. Glad it was not too sweet that I was able to enjoy large servings of this delightful dessert. Great with coffee or tea.”

“Every time I come here, I’m reminded why I keep coming back. The place is always clean, the staff are welcoming, and my order is consistently correct. On this particular day, it was raining and honestly not the nicest weather, but one employee completely changed the atmosphere. Her name was Marie Dieuvil, and she was handing out orders with such positivity, professionalism, and kindness. You could genuinely see people’s moods lifting because of her energy. She made the experience feel warm and enjoyable despite the weather. Employees like Marie truly make a difference and deserve recognition for the care and attitude they bring every day.”

“Okay first of all Mashallah 😍. I was born in the generation of Halalbee’s. First off, I got my order quickly! The man I spoke with had a mask on, and the restaurant was perfectly COVID compliant. The food?! AMAZING. Perfectly priced for the quality of what you’re getting. Definitely have the Double Decker with the Maple Beef Bacon! The Panko Chicken Nuggets were crispy, and fresh. The Truffle Fries were seasoned beautifully! Easily one of the most satisfying meals I’ve had in a long time. Excellent portions! I’d love to shake the owner’s hand, but that will have to wait until social distancing is behind us! I’m definitely bringing all my friends, and recommending this spot to my coworkers! No food photo cause I legit inhaled my meal!”

“Not only is she a fantastic baker but Sherry has definitely driven herself to the top with the additional hot food orders. the quality of her food brings back childhood memories of home food. IMO it's not just a quick order. Sherry takes ownership & pride of every dish she puts out. Great work and great job.. sometimes in life we all need a little reminder of how well we do so keep up the good work! and no I don't get paid for this review 😆”

“Great food, nice employees, and quick service, I have no complaints but whenever we go in and this particular staff member is behind the counter, she always says they have no olives. That would be fine but it seems to only be when this person is taking our order that they say they have no olives. I visit this place frequently and whenever we are seen by another staff member they will give us olives no problem, or even ask green or black? How is it that there are neither green nor black olives whenever this person takes our order? It is a great establishment but where is this woman hiding the olives??? I would also like to mention that she frequently gets our orders mixed up. I asked for a mushroom slice and my friend asked for an olive slice, she took our order and went to prepare it but we saw her making 2 mushroom slices instead. We quickly corrected her, and only then she said that they had no olives. Instead of asking if my friend would like something instead of olives while taking our order, she didn't mention that they didn't have any and decided to give her mushroom instead without her knowing.”

“Rock Island & Grill = Jamaican food heaven 🌟. I went in skeptical, left a believer. Jerk chicken was ON POINT—spicy, smoky, and so tender it fell off the bone. Oxtail was fall-apart amazing, cooked with love and served with rice & peas that hit like a warm hug. Grilled fish? Fresh catch, perfectly seasoned. 🔥
Only thing? Lines get long on weekends, but trust it’s worth it. If you’re craving authentic Jamaican with a laid-back vibe, Rock Island & Grill’s your spot.”
“I’ve had sushi all over America, and this is a top contender amongst the best I’ve had. The menu is on the simpler side, but don’t let that detract you from the absolute quality they deliver. The sushi rolls are larger than typical and priced very reasonable for what you get. Plus they serve warm sushi rice which not many places outside of Los Angeles do.”
