“Love the food at Aso Rock! I normally get the Jollof and fish and it never disappoints. I tried the fufu and veggies today and loved it! The customers sitting next to me raved about the boneless goat head with white rice which I will try next time. The owner appreciated that I knew much about the culture and food since I am not African. The other customers also appreciated my knowledge of the culture and treated me to a free plum wine which I also enjoyed. I normally have a good experience here and will definitely return!!!!“
“This was a great find! Beautiful gem of a restaurant tucked away in bedstuy. Food recommendations were really appreciated as well as a nice bottle of red wine to pair with our meal. We will definitely come back and highly recommend. Great date spot!“
“One of my favorite restaurants in all of Astoria! My husband and I always bring friends and family here when they visit the neighborhood. The staff is always so incredibly nice and generous (Miljan is usually our server and is so attentive and hilarious). We always have a wonderful time here, whether it’s a quiet weekday lunch or a packed Saturday night.“
“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. This was our second time here and it has quickly become one of our goto places in Astoria. From the greeting at the door to the selection of great wine and cocktails- all unique because the are craft brews- to the staff answering our many questions about the very different and delicious menu to the quality of the food- an awesome experience. Last week we were there and enjoyed live jazz and the musicians mingled and talked with us. The decor is very comfortable. Looking forward to attending the special event nights, too. See you next week- if not before!!“
“Cocktails are incredible. Service is unmatched. Space is gorgeous. And yes, their employees are paid fairly. I own a cocktail bar in the neighborhood and know that someone has targeted them (along with their friends) with a series of unfair reviews. Ironically, they seem to not realize how this affects a business and in turn how much money is made by those who work at said business. I do not believe that recent bad reviews have been made in good faith. Anyone who’s been here knows it’s fantastic :)“
“Great HH option in BK! $1 oysters, small but tasty. Drinks also strong and affordable option to get a nice snack and drink in. The atmosphere/vibe is great too.. there is a back patio and even seating out front. Came in as a walk-in right around 645pm to squeeze in HH and got seating right at the bar.“
“I've been meaning to leave a review for this restaurant for some time. From the moment I first came here, I knew I'd become a regular, and I definitely have. BEST Mexican restaurant in NYC. Food is always consistently amazing. I always order the chicken & shrimp tacos. Flavor is amazing. The margarita's are strong. The service is always spectacular. Every worker here is so so kind and attentive. One of my overall fav restaurants. I love it here“
“Got the cauliflower sandwich, the special hot chicken sandwich and the crispy potatoes. They were all really good and delicious. The chicken was crispy (wish it was a tad spicier), the cauliflower sandwich is amazing and my favorite thing from here (as a meat eater), and the crispy potatoes are always just solidly good. The ambiance though was a little chaotic feeling. I felt really claustrophobic in there, as if everyone around me was just a bit too* close together. The table arrangement felt strange. I get wanting to maximize seating but one table was in such a weird tight corner, one by where everyone walked by to the bathroom, and one had a plant where someone would be seated by the window? Also there were several 4-seater tables that just had a single person at them just reading or on their phones with a coffee while groups were waiting. I get that it's seat yourself/first come but it felt really inconsiderate as parties of 3 would awkwardly cram into/sideways into a 2 seater table while that was happening. I wouldn't come back to dine in for sure. But the food is delicious so back to take out exclusively for me.“
“What can I say about the best bar in New York? It’s not just the best bar in Sunnyside- Queens, I mean in the TOWN!First, the owners are an amazing couple that became my friends now and they are absolutely Amazing and Fabulous!!The best service, hospitality, a great team, Good vibes, great food and wonderful wines and drinks. What else can you expect? The best!On Fridays they have amazing live music like jazz, flamenco and some local bands..I highly recommend the French sparkling rose wine and the Italian charcuterie, my favorite ❤️What are you waiting to go for it? Definitely now I feel like home and always welcome in the place! Amazing hostess also! Enjoy ???✨This place and the owners have my Heart now! ?❤️“
“Italian restaurant in Roslyn village but not easily seen as its set back by the water. Food is good, service was good. Noisy and dark, needed a flashlight to see the menu.Sales are large size. My favorite in the Bronzino cooked in paper.There is a nearby municipal lot, street parking, and valet parking available“
“Beautiful, small, cozy wine bar located on Queens Blvd.The bartender/ server was friendly and made some good recommendations. The Chicken Tagine was so tender and flavorful, the pasta with meatballs was just spot on to perfection. Everything about this place is amazing.. Would definitely return here.“
“Yes Mama is one of the best discoveries of Astoria this year!Jessica runs the business all by herself and does a damn good job of it! Not only did she cook homemade Puerto Rican recipes, but she hires entertainment along with having a great selection of wine.I had the Carne Guisada (beef stew with white rice) and it felt like I was eating a mother’s cooking. Paired it with a couple glasses of Rosasera and a lovely Latin jazz band playing in the background and it was heaven. There were even some board games for us the play with while we waited on our food.Topped off the night by splitting a plate of the coquito flan served with the most adorable heart shaped spoons. It was so rich and decadent.If you live in or venture out to Astoria, please please please pay this place a visit! You’ll be so happy you did!“
“Just came from Baldoria for an early New Year's dinner. The food was excellent and so was the service. We had Burrata with melon an prosciutto as an appetizer then veal parm that could have easily served 3 people and pork osso bucco served w risotto. It was delicious. We definitely return again for dinner. M“
“This food was so delicious that 6 months later I am still thinking about it once a week. The fusion was great and I am so pleased it was shown to me by a friend. The restaurant is rather small but does not feel claustrophobic. The service was fantastic, we had a very pleasant waiter. I would suggest making a reservation in advance since seating is limited.“
“Just ordered long distance from Vite Vinosteria for delivery to my daughter who lives in Queens. She has been sick and the Mom in me wanted to send her some good food. Found Vite on line, read some reviews and ordered. Daughter was so happy with all the food, she dove right in, enjoyed it and has leftovers for tomorrow. She said it is all so delicious, tender meatballs, excellent papparadelle, sides, bread for dipping, dessert and pizza. Thank you, Vite. I'll be odering again.“
“I hosted some friends for my 30th birthday here and it was the perfect event, no small part because of this space. Everyone who came mentioned how much they loved the spot and the vibe. The drinks were great and I was able to bring in food (we ended up ordering some of the food they offer as well to snack on - delicious). What I will rave about most is the staff. Audrey took our orders all night and was the kindest, most helpful and attentive person. Also shout out to Amanda and JR for being so great as well in answering all my questions. I think I found my new favorite spot!!“
“Had a huge craving for pizza & wanted to meet my friend from the other side of Brooklyn halfway so we decided to check out Ops and see what the hype was about. Bustlin' on a Friday night, we were able to grab bar seats & ordered ourselves a pizza, calzone & panna cotta. I have to say, the dough for the pizza & calzone was baked to perfection - both had a perfect chewy texture & was soft. They were also baked enough to be charred slightly for added flavor. Aaaaand you can't forget about the panna cotta - who would've thought adding olive oil & balsamic vinaigrette would work so well with panna cotta?!“
“I decided to check this spot out on a whim around two years ago, and since then Bee has been my go-to spot to grab a coffee and to sit and get some work done. The staff here is incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the ambience - from the decor to the lighting and the music - is incredibly warm and inviting. I love that customers have the option of selecting from various types of seating including swerving stools, booths, tables, couches in both indoor seating and outdoor seating. My personal favorite is the beautiful Bee garden in the back end of the cafe which offers "outdoor" seating which is closed off but still gives you the option of getting some sunlight. Off the menu, my favorite is the Kimchi fries. I have already introduced multiple of my friends and family to Bee, and would recommend anyone to check out this spot if they can.“
“One of my favorite dining experiences in a while. The prices were very reasonable, but the food and service were amazing. We went on a Saturday and our server (I believe Argentinian?) was incredible, not pushy at all, and timed out the meal beautifully. She didn't try to upsell, but was attentive and we had no problem being there for almost four hours while having different dishes. The food itself was fantastic - highly recommend the steak, empanadas (amazing sauce), and the croquettes. Also a very nice atmosphere and great drinks. Will go back for sure.“
“This long time favorite continues on with great service and delicious food. Parking during the day is hit and miss but that aside for those of us who love a local red table cloth Italian with Italians at the helm DiMaggio's is it. One tip try the Lasagna and you will be hooked for life. Large menu and it is all delicious.“
“My favorite gluten-free spot. The food is delicious and seasonal, so you know you're getting the best ingredients. They also make some mean cocktails. Well worth an evening out with friends.Dietary restrictions: Gluten, shellfish, peanuts“
“Such a nice cozy spot for a date night or hanging out with friends. The wine and cheese selection is nice and the pizza was really good. We also got to take advantage of their happy hour from 5-7pm. The service was is why I couldn’t give it 5 stars we waited 2 hours for our pizza but luckily we had some apps to hold us over. The waiter never really checked on us or made eye contact. I would love to go back because it’s a cute vibe but the service needs to improve.Vegetarian options: 1. vegetarian friendly pizzas2. charcuterie boards with bread, fruits, jame and cheese3. Salads“
“I have probably gone to Via Trenta for 8 Christmas Eve Dinners and it is always amazing. This is by far my favorite restaurant in Astoria. The service is superb and I always looking forward to going to dinner here. They have options for everyone, including vegetarians like me. The food is incredible. If you have not yet tried Via Trenta, you should go immediately! The Carciofini is the best appetizer I have ever had. : )“
“Came here for Valentines Day with my family- 2 adults and 3 kids. Great atmosphere and loved the decor. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. The food was the best, we started with some appetizers and for our main dish we had the churrasco and the rib dish. My kids devoured their plates. We will definitely be coming back and I definitely recommend this place. Very kid friendly as well.“
“So, we were expecting a large crowd and the party room that they had, was not available for that day, so we decided to host the party in the community club room of our building and cater their food in.They did not disappoint! It was amazing! ? Sometimes when you had food catered, it loses its quality and taste in the quantity. In this case, that was not true at all. The sliders were amazing and very tasty. The Sangria was amazing and very delicious. We ordered the shrimp and veggie wraps and they were the best wraps I’ve had in a long time. The best time is that they have amazing relationship with other notable spots. So, the cake we needed for the event, they took care of it. Delivered, with the plates, the wethe flatware (and very nice flatware), the sternos, the containers, the servings trays, the everything!“
“Cute spot for lovely natural wine. This place is all about the vibe, especially if you’re a wine lover. The rooftop is super charming, especially for a date. They offer light snacks to eat while you’re drinking the wine but I wouldn’t say people go there for the food - it’s more of a wine experience. The service is good too, they take the time to explain the wines.“
“Pretty nice Restaurant, I like this place. Only thing that disappointed me is my entree Easter menu, the lamb chop milanese, the most expensive one on the menu, but it was over deeply fried, too dry, I can bearly taste it's still a lamb.“
“I had received a gift card for this restaurant as a Christmas gift and decided to dine out and use the gift card that night. Although I had reserved a table, the wait time was lenghty. The staff were very pleasant and we didn't mind the wait. We ordered the Salmon with capers. It was perfectly done and quite delectable. I would order it again. Thank you. It was a nice dining experience.“
“I don’t know how this place hasn’t blown up yet. It’s an underrated gem for incredible food. We had the squid ink burrata and mushroom raviolis, and it felt like we were back in the quaint, unforgettable eateries in europe. Love this “
“SOO GOOD!!! Swung by for breakfast with my cousin and boy was the food delicious!I got the Green Delight Breakfast sandwich which was a bit messy but 10/10 taste wise. My cousin got the Spicy Pleasure and while she liked hers she did feel like it wasn’t spicy enough so she ended up having to put hot sauce on it.I also got the Chagamatcha latte (iced) and it was so good! This spot is reasonably priced for breakfast sandwiches and I would 100% come back here and try something different since every choice sounded amazing.If you’re in the area definitely check it out!“
“This place has definitely become a fan favorite for my bf & I ! We’ve been coming in every Saturday after work for the past few weeks now & the staff has noticed us as the new Saturday night regulars lolThe food is amazing ? Their French onion soup & baked clams are a must !!We’ve been trying to order different entrees when we come in, so we can find our favorites but it’s so hard when you like one dish already ?We also highly recommend the delicious desserts !!We always enjoy sitting at the bar when we go out to eat & our bartender Austin is great ! He is a skilled bartender that can craft you a perfect cocktail with just the right amount of conversation lolWe’re always greeted warmly by all the staff, it feels like a tight group ??We’ve been meaning to try this place out for sometime now, so we’re happy that we finally did!“
“I just love coming here! Such friendly staff, and the food is always so fresh. I never have anything bad to say about this place.The ambiance is perfect, the food comes out in a very timely manner and just an always pleasant experience!The gyozas and rock shrimp are always the best appetizers.“
“Exciting to have homemade pasta in this neighborhood. The food is seriously good, and while it's not "cheap" it is much less expensive than similar quality food in other neighborhoods. Great wine selection and creative desserts to boot. Basil creme brulee was a pleasant surpriseVegetarian options: Pesto gemelli and squash ravioli are amazing“
“Never disappoints. The food has always been top quality and cocktails have a hearty pour.It’s refreshing to have real margaritas and not wine based ones you find in the area.Their blood orange and watermelon are yummy.The patio is charming, and the inside as well.Maria and Lou are gracious hosts and always make everyone feel welcome.“

“I've been here three or four times for dinner and I've enjoyed it every time. It's a great date night spot. I would say the prices reflect the quality of the food and service. I would recommend the oxtail croquettes, duck two ways, roast chicken, and halibut.“
“It's Saturday and decided to bring my wife for a quick date night. The place looks cozy and the food selection looks pretty unique. I had the Wagyu burger while she had the Beef rib with bone marrow. Both food came out good and we will definitely come back.“
“A lot of my friends recommended this restaurant so I decided to celebrate my mom’s birthday in Sangria 71. I was impressed with the food and interior design. Everything was beyond my expectations. Will definitely come again. If I could have put 10 stars, I would have done this.“
“Came here for the frose, so reviewing the frose. Without the rum float it has a bitterness to it - not unpleasant, but I'd describe it as very rhubarb-forward. Add the rum float and suddenly the rhubarb is gone and all you taste is juicy strawberry goodness. Both ways were great, but the rum float really was incredible. It sounded bizarre to me at first, but Vintage knows their frose: trust them.“
“Fantastic experience! Defintely recommend to everyone. I've been here multiple times and will be back. Authentic Japanese flavors and fresh food! My only reasons for not giving 5 stars is because the service foh could be nicer. And it happens each time i go. I've worked in the service industry for years and I know what it means to be tired but the same brisk hurrying to finish and rudeness isn't acceptable. Otherwise it's Fantastic I recommend the boxes for dinner if your hungry! Ask to be seated in a booth for privacy and the back is pretty too :)Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options and salads.Parking: It's right on Austin Street so parking will be difficult.Wheelchair accessibility: It'd fairly open and not too cramped. Check out the back!“
“Had brunch here today. I had the Hangover Pizza while my wife and daughter had the Eggs Ricotta. So my review is limited to those dishes. While I'm not a big fan of ricotta, it was plated beautifully and both said it was as good as it gets. They are very picky so that's a full fledged RAVE. My pizza was Freaking Magnificent ( I don't want to be redundant and say as good as it gets, but it was). I mean pizza is pizza? No! This was extraordinarily good, fresh hot and tasty ingredients including eggs bacon and potatoes on a thin crust. Delicious Plus! The place was rather empty being it was a Saturday at 2:00 so we did have to wait as they probably had to re fire up the pizza oven, but it was worth the wait.“
“Came here with my boyfriend on a Wednesday night, great food and really good service. Attentive and checked on us regularly without being pushy. Chef was really good. We both got burgers and they were awesome. Good spot will definitely be back. “
“I think Mya's Bar & Kitchen is an underrated spot. The food and service have not disappointed me yet and the space is an overall vibe. I've gone here several times and whether it's the honey shrimp, oxtail tacos, mac and cheese as well as sorrel drinks...Mya's Bar & Kitchen brings me joy. It's a well needed spot to the neighborhood and I hope more people come out to support this place. I don't want to see it go.“
“We have been going to this fantastic family restaurant for the past 30 years with all of our friends. The food is absolutely delicious and amazingly consistent. The wait staff is very friendly and attentive. Abundant portions and very reasonable prices fir a family style restaurant.“
“Nino's Beach, a waterfront gem in Port Washington, offers a rich blend of Mediterranean and Italian fare with vegetarian choices to please all. Ideal for both romantic dates and group gatherings, its menu shines with stars like the pepperoni hot honey pizza, tuna crudo, lobster bucatini, tuna tartare, and spicy rigatoni, making every visit memorable.“
“Yesterday, I met my long time friend George (Owner of Casserino Photography Studio) for lunch at Il Bacco in Little Neck two blocks from where I grew up … George and I met in 1980 when he moved here from DC … we worked for the same photography studio, Barkley’s in Forrest Hills Gardens … we became fast friends … our friendship & connection has stood the test of time even when it years or decades that we do not see each other face to face … we talk on the phone and that’s been awesome … it was so good to see you George and you look fabulous … for lunch we had Caprese Salad, Baked Clams & specially prepared Pork Chops (I haven’t had one in over 20 years) … the food was outstanding … I met the owner John who was a terrific & hospitable guy … Jennifer who was the Hostess was also fantastic … the bartender & waiter are absolute gems … I also met Brad & Chris at the bar while waiting for George … we talked and I shared my story … Brad bought me a bourbon and we all toasted to life … it was such a beautiful experience … new people and my long time friend … a stupendous lunch … I highly recommend Il Bacco … you will absolutely be satisfied … LIVE LOVE LAUGH & EAT ALWAYS … ????#CancerFree2024 #EyeOnTheFuture #LiveLoveLaughAlways #CancerWarrior #cancersurvivor #bestfriendsforever #diningout #ItalianRestaurant“
“Consistently outstanding service and food. Authentic Italian ambience. Chef Roberto is one my top 3 chefs in the world, and creates the most delicious, and phenomenal dishes I've had, including, but not limited to, Gamberi alla Toscanaccia, Fior Di Zucca, Burratta, Tagliata di Manzo, Chicken Parm, and Ortolana di Vitello. The dessert and drinks are also amazing! No Italian restaurant in NY can top this place!“
“I can’t believe I’ve never reviewed this place. We’ve been coming here for years and recommend it to friends. Today (8/11/23), however, I came in for the bottle of wine and cheese deal and then cheese plate was shrunken to a tiny platter that made it impossible to cut on it. Also, three olives to two people???? Screw whomever made that decision. Still, we will be back.“
“Our waitress Stephenie was very engaging and helpful when my friend and I were trying to decide on our entrees. I was impressed by the fact that when we informed Stephenie that we were trying to make an 8pm movie at the Malverne cinema ?, she made sure that our food came out in a timely manner. Loved the seasoned fries that came with my chicken basket. Before leaving, we informed her that we would ask for her the next time we planned to dine there. I remember coming to this cafe with my grandparents and friends while I was a student at Malverne high school!“
“A nice little bar with a really fun vibe, friendly staff. Super enjoyable place to sit and relax. I didn’t love the cocktail I ordered (espresso martini), but I think I would absolutely come back and order a house special drink. Definitely somewhere I’d revisit!“
“Great foodNarrow restaurant with long bat on left side and single row of tables on the right side - front to back 2-3 couples @ tables and 10 folks @ bar - Wednesday 5:00 pmLots of TVs over the bar -- playing soccer/football while we were there( kept us entertained)Staff spoke English Spanish and PortugueseFood was fantastic - wife loved the ChurrascoNot a thin skirt steak this was very thick with slices of ham and soft fried egg over topServed with Fries and white riceAlso had side salad with very light vinaigrette beforehandHad a good creamy seafood soup first - lots of shrimp- some fish and croutonsAdded a Guarana soda to complete the mealEnjoyed it completely“
