“Love this place! Excellent service, great food, wonderful environment! I’m going back. Love the moctels!!!!Great experience!“

“fantastic food, but horrible service. AND they force an 18% gratuity on all parties“

“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“

“If You’re in the area, it’s a good hangout place. It’s good to watch games and/or have a good meal. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere.“

“Good food and a nice atmosphere. I do wish the Szechuan food was a little more spicy, but the dishes we got, like Shrimp with silken tofu, Szechuan fish fillet with tofu, Dan Dan noodles, and Green Beans was very good. Prices are a little high and portions were small compared to Flushing, but the difference was not extravagant, and for three people we were able to be full for about $90 pre-tip, which is respectable.“

“Buena música! buena comida y bebidas!“

“Highly recommended!! We had a wonderful experience here! Such an excellent dining experience—beautifully cooked dishes made with fresh, flavorful ingredients. The space is charming yet refined, ideal for an intimate date night or an elegant family gathering. Service was warm, polished, and attentive throughout. !“

“Delish!! Excellent Bloody Mary’s!!“

“We had a great time eating hot pot here. The coconut chicken hot pot is delicious, and the service is also great. The staff helped us cook the chicken, distributed the soup to everyone, and even helped us pick chicken out when it’s in the best texture. The ingredients are also high quality. Highly recommend!“

“We had a great time at this location. The atmosphere was cool, the music wasn’t loud, the waiter were busy. For appetizers we had the “CORN ESQUITES” and it was delicious. For our meal we had a feast of food. We try different types of tacos (AL PASTOR, BAJA CRISPY FISH, BEEF RIBEYE DELUXE” and their burritos and it was great! The price of the tacos were steep, I ain’t going to lie. Also if you like American style tacos with lots of cheese and sauces, then these might not be the tacos for you. The alcoholic drink were good! The “Mexican” soda in the bottle was flat for us.

Street parking in this area is not the best.

The food was great.“

“We had the best pre cruise visit since we were staying nearby at a hotel. Both bartenders were excellent and the regular customers! Made us “southerners” feel comfy and offered up ideas and suggestions of navigating the concrete jungle! If we ever return to NY, we will definitely be back. Awesome food! Awesome service! Excellent drinks. Made our trip!!“

“😀I have known Manetta's Ristorante since 1990's and have been going there. Food is always excellent and the prices are good. The staff and servers are pleasant. Lisa is always friendly and accommodating --- greeted me and my hubby with a pleasant smile and also checked up to make sure that everything was fine during the course of our meal. Server, Jasmine waited on us a couple of times --- one of it was today, 2/9/2024. We were happy with her service and everything else. Our overall experience with Manetta's Ristorante is excellent. I highly recommend.“

“All I ask is to understand they brew well. The flavors are on point everything is great and the service is great too. If you're on lighter flavors my place for you. There are heavy flavors too as for the porter. Didn't try the food...“

“great place for a meet up!! owe and good coffee and pastrys.“

“My husband and I have eaten here twice: both times we’ve enjoyed delicious pizza, pasta, wine, coffee, and desserts. The staff are attentive and kind without hovering. Most recently, a couple and their young son were having dinner too. Beebe’s is a great choice for so many different people and families.“

“We loved this place, we are Italian but we live in ct, and I find this restaurant vey interesting.
We ordered bruschette with tomatoes for appetizer, then 4 pizzas and 2 dessert. Very good quality of the food, we really enjoyed everything! The staff of the restaurant were amazing, and some of them are Italian, we appreciated so much the hospitality 🫶🏻“

“Good music. Delicious appetizers. The paella valenciana for 2 was great! Will be returning.“

“Great atmosphere… beautiful setting on the water, gorgeous circular bar…neighborhood place grateful for!“

“singing,harmonizing, Anything as long it sounds good“

“Super endroit pour passer un séjour en groupe. Le personnel est super accueillant. Beaucoup d’activités artistiques sont proposées. Je recommande vivement. A consommer sans modération.“

“The best ramen! Been coming for over four years. The poke bowls and all appetizers delicious as well. My only feedback is that the service is too quick (entrees always come out when you’re still eating appetizer). Will really miss this place when I move in a few weeks!“

“I got a rice tonkatsu curry dish here, which I expected to just be a plain dish but it was served with a variety of vegetables which really elevated the meal. The chicken and curry together had great flavor and the entire thing was quite filling.“

“I've been here several times for dinner with my preschool-aged son and just went today for lunch. It's been a treat each time. I try a different side dish from their rotating menu on each visit, and I haven't been disappointed yet. Everything on their menu has been just the right savory, harmonious amount of flavor without being overly salty or overdone in any way. My son and I also love the fresh tofu. The staff has been very courteous, and everything is reasonably priced. I hope they stay around in LIC because there aren't very many restaurants like this that make things so comfortable in every way. I seldom dine out but I'd eat here anyday.“

“Yummy yummy Good service Nice place“

“Delicious food ... fresh ... special lunch rates and above all... service! Outstanding ... they were friendly, courteous, ready when needed and yet respectful.of boundaries! That's why I keep coming back!“

“Absolutely delicious food! Fast friendly service. Will be back for more😋😋“

“Great food and excellent taste!
I ordered the grilled chicken over rice with salad and sauce, and it was delicious. The chicken was fresh, juicy, and perfectly grilled. The rice was well cooked, the salad was fresh, and the sauces added great flavor.
The place is clean, the service is good, and it’s 100% halal, which I really appreciate.
Highly recommended — I will definitely come back again.“

“You know when you’re driving to a new area to work and you want to grab food real quick before you start.

This is how I found out about this place. Automatically was driving by to go to a different place and saw a few workers waiting in line to grab some food. So I’m like “you know what let me stop here”.

Once I walked up to the cashier I knew I chose the right spot. From the amount of options on their menu I would say it’s a good amount but not overwhelming.

I decided to get the French toast breakfast sandwich. And when I say that Sammy was busssssin. It was so good!

Whole time im like yeah I have to go back. Noticed they closed at 2pm and finished my day job by 1:30 and rushed back over to get the no. 7 which is a chipotle chicken sandwich on ciabatta. Didn’t disappoint at all either.

Not only was the food great the owner and the staff was amazing.

Let me go save this on my tabs so I remember to come back here when I’m in the area.“

“Fast service and food tastes soo good“

“Cozy spot! Great service!“

“This is such a deal. A little bit of everything with salad, fries, meat, rice AND A DRINK and tastes good. Crazy. Sad that excitement made us forget the green sauce which would have perfectly complimented the food bc mint. Three gentlemen worked the truck so line went fast and smooth. Haven’t been called sweetheart in a hot minute when they responded back to have a nice day. Endearing.“

“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“

“Saw a lot of unfriendly reviews, decided to leave one as someone born and raised in Northwest China. The noodles and buns so flavorful, meat is fresh and tender. The food here is soul food for me, bringing me back to my childhood. If anyone complaining it’s too spicy or oily, they’ve never had authentic Northwestern Chinese food before.“

“Their pizza is superb and excellent!!“

“Definitely a fun bar to hang out in and the staff was very personable. The drinks were decently priced and there were plenty of places to sit and space out between groups. The only drawback is the overly loud music at some points which can make conversation difficult.“

“The food and drinks are great. The atmosphere is lively and friendly. The staff is wonderful. Had my birthday dinner there this weekend and it was great!!“

“Great place. The staff is awesome and are very attentive. Drinks and food were fantastic. Was our first time there and I’ll definitely be back.“

“excelent colombian food thanks“

“I’m eating their falafel wrap over 3hrs later and it is still yummy. They pack it with flavorful fillings and sauces. My favorite is the eggplant spread. Plenty of seating there and throughout the bldg. It’s a bit out of the way for me, but it’s great for the LaGuardia community.

They do get slammed during peak lunch hours, but I’ve always received courteous service despite the wait.

Wheelchair accessibility: The bldg has a mini-lift in the lobby.“

“The sweetest, most caring employees. Always make sure nobody feels rushed while also making sure everyone’s orders get out in a timely manner. Food is authentic - great lunch deals for when you’re in a rush but want a complete meal. It’s open 24hrs hence at times it’s a little slower bc there is less staff but overall, always a pleasure doing business with them ?✨??“

“It’s delicious and tasty food“
