A very large selection of beers, all the ones I tried were good. As for the food, it was ok. It wasn't anything outstanding but it was tasty. The meat was well cooked and had a nice grilled flavor. The whole dish would need some original sauces that would make everything less dry.”

We got a welcome eggnog, brilliantly cooked 3 course price fix menu, great service. There were some hiccups (soup came out crazy fast, while the drinks took the normal time. A little odd) loved that they had a kobe steak as arn option, very moist turkey too. Pumpkin creme bruleee was tasty-not too "pumpkiny". They even have us a free champagne with dessert.

Da Long Yi Hot Pot 42-22 Crescent St, Long Island City Hot Pot • $$$

“Yesterday, on the Mid-Autumn Festival night, we brought our parents and children to have a meal together. We usually go to Flushing for hot pot, but we didn't expect such a good hot pot so close to LIC. There are many special dishes, all of which taste good. The bell shrimp slider and egg yolk shrimp slider are both good. The medium spicy base is just right. I will try the spiciest one next time.

But what makes me come back is the great service. The person who served our table was Tao, who was very attentive and provided us with soup and vegetables in a timely manner. One time, the soup accidentally spilled. They quickly replaced us with a new pot of soup and replenished various dishes. Before leaving, we were even allowed to taste the homemade soy milk in the store. Not because of these dishes, but because it can be seen from these actions that Tao really cares. He takes care of our family with intention. He hopes that we can eat happily and not be unhappy because of accidents. He only observes such subtle things out of kindness. , the service is so attentive. This kind of service is no longer common in fast-paced hot pot restaurants, and I hope that this original intention can be maintained. Thank you Tao for giving us the opportunity to take our children and parents to enjoy this wonderful experience. We will come back for food soon. I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

In addition, the ladies and gentlemen in all the stores are very friendly. When passing by, they will subconsciously check the table to see if there is anyone who needs service. They will also say hello and say thank you for coming. It feels very friendly, like home away from home.

Thank you for your delicious food and beautiful hearts.

Lemak Kitchen 23-23 Borden Ave Loading B, Kitchen F, Long Island City Malaysian • $

“Lemak Kitchen is a ghost kitchen, serving the most incredible Malay food from a warehouse space on the outskirts of LIC.The exceptional food is well seasoned with generous portions. I had a seafood curry, which had shrimp, clams, mussels, and tofu, two kinds of egg noodles, and bean sprouts in an overflowing bowl of awesome. The curry was mildly spicy. Only complaint was that the noodles were under salted, which is so very minor. Everything was packed very well, surviving a subway ride with no mishaps.The weird: Lemak is located in the industrial section of town. There is no retail and if you're walking alone, you may be uncomfortable. When you get to the loading dock, which is thankfully well labeled, you have to walk down a long hallway with automatic lighting to find the kitchen. There's no seating, no restroom, no ADA compliance. The tasty is reserved only for the brave of heart and utmost devotees of deliciousness.The cook tonight (Salama?) was very kind, and had my order completed in 15 minutes even though the website said 40 minutes. Yay!”

The latter two were amazing but the rum raisin was way too strong in terms of alcohol content. Would not recommend it to people who are sensitive to that.This location is also inside Food Bazaar, a 24-hour mega mart. The overall experience of late-night grocery shopping and getting ice cream is great.Seating is also available. Clean bathrooms are right inside the supermarket.”

I ordered the Nutella monster but explained to her that I don’t want it too and she made it absolutely delicious. Tasty and not too sweet at all so I didn’t feel too guilty for bending my diet haha! I also bought an avocado toast with a side of bacon….ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! This morning, I went back….yup, I sure did. Today, I tried the hot Nutella latte (again, less sweet) and was perfect for me! I’m loving this place!! Thanks Sip A Cup!! :)”

“Wendy teriyaki is a fantastic place. Its probably the best fast casual teryaki spot in Astoria. It beats the Steinway spot in taste and price by a mile . And it also better than the spot inside food bazaar.

although I didn’t dine in the inside, it looks clean and modern.

I ordered the chicken teryaki with extra beef and a side of lo mein noodles just to be able to try everything.

The value is pretty great for about $18 i have enough food for 2 large meals. The quality and taste were above expectations. The chicken was well cooked, the beef was velvety and tenderized, and the teryaki sauce was light but just as flavorful.

I really dont have any negative comments, ill be coming back multiple times to try the ramen and bubble tea.”

“Hi, I'm Trish,I live right up the block from Kate’s Corner Cafe. I have known her since she graced Astoria & Long Island City with delicious breakfast and lunch sandwiches and omelet platters. Every time I go there, I order everything so mouthwatering that I want to order for three or four people. Very professional personalities are great there. Everyone who works there is exemplary. Kate is very down-to-earth, warmhearted, and friendly to everyone she needs. They get the orders done as soon as possible, especially for all of those working people that go there that have only so much time for lunch.Her business has expanded to one of the colleges in the area. Oh, to top it all, she does catering. Yes, did I tell you she also has a food truck? And to top it all, she does catering. She can do it all. If you want some excellent food in the area and beyond, please check them out.I go back repeatedly; thank you so much, Kate, for making great food for our area.Thank you for being a great friend!!!?????? ? ??”

Dominie's Hoek 48-17 Vernon Blvd, Long Island City Bar • $

“This unassuming bar has it all.

Food
Perhaps the least expected, but the food here is actually great. The highlight of it all is the grilled chicken caesar salad, we have yet to find a better one in this neighborhood. The tacos and grilled cheese are also not bad, but maybe more your typical bar stock.

Service
The bartenders all have a kind of calm, amicable presence. In the three years I’ve lived nearby, I’ve never seen even a trace of impatience, even on busy nights. They’re always getting into conversations with the locals, and it gives the place a friendly vibe.

Ambiance
I think this place is underrated as a date spot. It’s not fancy, and sometimes some of the tables can be a bit sticky (hey, spills happen it’s fair). But the lighting is nice — a warm amber light fills the place, and I think it makes you look better. I always feel like I have good conversations with people here, and I can’t quite say why, but I think it’s the vibe. If you’re not looking for anything too fancy, and just want a down to earth place to meet up with someone, this is your spot.

Vegetarian options: Grilled cheese, Caesar salad”

Marvel Frozen Dairy 37-01 30th Ave., Long Island City Ice Cream Shop • $

“I’ve been here a couple times but the last two times that I’ve gotten a cone and the person that’s putting the soft serve in there or when they get it out of the box, they are crushing it. So I get down the street and there’s ice cream dripping from the cone onto my clothes and shoes and it’s a hassle. I will say the flavors are good and not too sweet. I have yet to try one with any of the additional toppings.”

The service is great very freindly and attentive. The pizza is awesome fresh cheese and crust is soft yet crunchy . Pizza not overly saucy like others . Definitely not dry at all , not overly oily but enough that us pizza oil lovers love lol. I am a huge fan of pepporoni pin wheels but i opted for a slice and it was awesome . Definitely a gem tucked just a couple stores length in the middle of the block right off of steinway ?.”

We had my boyfriend’s band set up to play and the owner, sound guy, and bartenders were extremely receptive and flexible with our group of 65+! Everyone loved the atmosphere, inside and outside of the bar and awesome entertaining spaces. Would highly recommend LIC BAR for a Saturday hang out, but also to host an event. Thanks LIC bar!”

“We went for Thanksgiving, not expecting much. Understanding they would be busy at 7pm, we decided to take our chances and walk in. Super friendly service. We got a welcome eggnog, brilliantly cooked 3 course price fix menu, great service. There were some hiccups (soup came out crazy fast, while the drinks took the normal time. A little odd) loved that they had a kobe steak as arn option, very moist turkey too. Pumpkin creme bruleee was tasty-not too "pumpkiny". They even have us a free champagne with dessert. Really worth it”

Sweet Chick 46-42 Vernon Blvd, Long Island City Chicken • $$

“The food was great, and the staff were friendly, but I was there with my young children, and the music playing was inappropriate. I mentioned it to our first server, but it was ignored because the music kept playing, followed by more inappropriate music. I would order from them, but probably only pick up because of that.

Parking: I got a spot right in front, but only because I was parking for a different business. We were hungry when we came back, so I took my family there to eat.

Kid-friendliness: The food is kid-friendly, but the atmosphere is geared toward an adult crowd.”
