“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“I went with a group of friends for my birthday last night. It was AMAZING. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The place itself was so clean and cute, really cool vibe. The Apps were great, Hush Puppies and Fried Calamari, yum. I did a make-your-own Seafood Boil. OH MY GOD. The New Zealand Mussels, King Crab and Dungeness Crab was out of this world in the Cajun Butter Sauce. I HIGHLY recommend this spot and will be going back.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service from Christina!

I had an amazing experience at Captain Loui thanks to Christina. From the moment we were seated, she was friendly, attentive, and professional. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked on us regularly, and provided excellent customer service throughout our meal.
Christina’s positive attitude and attention to detail truly stood out and made our dining experience even better. She was knowledgeable about the menu, patient with our questions, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.
Employees like Christina are the reason customers like myself will keep coming back. She is a tremendous asset to Captain Loui and absolutely deserves recognition for her hard work and dedication. I highly recommend asking for Christina if you visit—she was amazing and definitely deserves a raise!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you, Christina, for making our visit so enjoyable!“

“I went to a family friend’s 70th birthday party they hosted in the Atlantic ballroom. The space was modern and very clean. The food was DELICIOUS!!! And the workers, Yiselle, Estrellita, and Shorty (blonde) made the event so memorable! They paid attention to every detail, whether it was filling our water cups, collecting unused plates and of course they did it all with a warm smile. They were kind, funny and very welcoming. I had a wonderful time! Thank you Yiselle, Estrellita and shorty!!!“

“Great food & awesome service !!!“

“I've been visiting Johnny's for over 30+years.

“This is a cute escape with great decorations. The food was awesome, now that many Habachi places have closed doors, this is the best place we found to get Habachi. Although we will miss the experience of having them cook in front of you. The fact we have access to the food is enough.“

“The service is great. Everyone is very nice and the food was delicious. Will be returning again. Thank you so much.“

“Es un lindo lugar para compartir con la familia, los empleados son muy atentos y amable, la comida muy buena y llega a la mesa aún caliente 🔥, lo recomiendo 💯.“

“Drove 4 hours from Syracuse NY just for the stew chicken! Only to eat it in the car before I drove off 🤣 Safe to say, I went back inside for another dish 🤣🤣 5 ⭐️’s #ThaAuthor“

“Sat at the bar with my fiancé. We had a few Apps and drinks and enjoyed our favorite singer Johnny. After leaving
A generous 25% tip we discovered they had added 18% to the bill and never told us of this new policy. It’ll be awhile before we go back!“

“The best lobster roll around!!! Delicious shrimp cocktail!! Can’t go wrong….Super easy curbside pick up“

“Amazing atmosphere, excellent service, great wine selection. The food is delicious, despite the small kitchen. It feels like a neighborhood spot that people from around the world have heard about — regulars and adventurers coming together for a great glass of wine and a sensuous vibe.

Harlem and France continue the special relationship they’ve had for 100 years with a spot like this.“

“This place is amazing!!!! I went with my grandmarents for dinner and I orderd the Branzino Francese AND IT WAS DELICIOUS! The garlic linguine went beautifully with the lemon wine sauce and was filling too!

The sevice was fantasic as well, the waitress made sure our table was taken care of very well!

And dont even get me started on the ambiance! this is the perfect spot for a date night, family event, or even if your out with your friends!

All and all it is a very chill and fun place to hang out and get some great food! I reccomend it to all!“

“Such a great spot! Stopped by yesterday for a quick lunch and it really hit the spot. I went with the fish and shrimp combo, and it’s a generous serving of both along with a pile of fries. I loved the seasoning in the batter, and everything was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside and tender inside. I walked out stuffed and happy. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Pleasantly surprised by how amazing this restaurant. I have passed it a millions times and never thought much about it. A coworker mentioned they had a good happy hour so I checked out their menu and decided we would try for dinner instead. From the minute you open the door you know it’s going to be good. Beautifully decorated, dimly lit, romantic & clean. We opted for the surf and turf and the swordfish - never imagined how generous the portions would be. The dishes were simple yet perfectly flavored. Our waiter Drini was kind and informative.
We will def be back!“

“My friend and I - both longtime lovers of Asian cuisine - were originally headed to another spot for lunch, but it was closed for a break until 5 PM. Hungry Monster was nearby, so we decided to give it a try - and we’re so glad we did!
Though the restaurant is small, it’s incredibly cozy and comfortable, with a mix of four-person tables and bar-style seating with stools. When we arrived, there were only a couple of teenagers sipping smoothies, so we practically had the place to ourselves. That meant we got the full attention of our wonderful waiter, Biscuit, who was very attentive and made us feel well cared for from start to finish.
We both ordered their signature dish package - I chose the soup-based seafood package, and my friend ordered the beef version. Each dish came served in a small cauldron, full of different ingredients and rich flavor. The portions were generous, so I ended up taking half of mine home. As a nice touch, they packed my leftovers in a high-quality branded bag with the restaurant’s name, which I really appreciated.
We ended our meal with drinks - mine was a refreshing grapefruit and lemon green tea, and my friend had a Mango Tea Yakult, which was fruity, creamy, and perfectly balanced.
The ambiance added to the experience. The decor combines traditional Asian elements with anime-style art, even on the bathroom door! It was fun, vibrant, and gave the place a unique personality. Pleasant background music played throughout the meal - it was noticeable enough to enhance the atmosphere but soft enough not to interfere with conversation.
Some practical notes:
• They offer delivery, and you can get a 10% discount on takeout if you pay in cash.
• They’re open every day.
• The only downside is parking - limited spots in front of the restaurant and no obvious public parking nearby. You can risk parking in the nearby plaza, but there are tow warnings posted. Thankfully, we didn’t have any trouble.
All in all, we had a wonderful lunch at Hungry Monster. The food was fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the whole experience felt welcoming and personal. We’ve been to many Asian restaurants before, and this one stood out in the best way.
If you enjoy Asian cuisine, we highly recommend Hungry Monster. We’ll definitely be coming back! 5/5 stars“

“Everything is good“

“Great and affordable food. They did my wedding and all events for my family’s gathering. The owner and staff are very personable. Highly recommend it.“

“I always come to this restaurant and they always have a variety of food the service is always immaculate Robert serves me during the night and he gives great vibration to your food Christine is the loveliest she always over extends and does her very best to please she has always served me depending her shift and I recently have gotten to know a new waitress Maria who is always lovely and kind when serving me she is very attentive and servicing a place to enjoy at all hours“

“The food was excellent. Thank you Earl. I will be back.“

“This place is a hidden gem. We were looking for place to make our go to spot. Once my foodie fiance tasted the catfish it was goto spot approved. The service is outstanding as they took very good care of us. The food is very tasty and nicely seasoned. We will be back.“

“I tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt. The food is awful. Mozzarella sticks were frozen, Cajun fries, a handful of paprika drowned over the top Today beer that's normally $6 was $8 plus a $4 tip, tax and looking for another tip. Bill should have been $20 it's $30. Live with your wn failure. Don't put it on the customers. Pretty bartenders won't cover incompetence.“

“Best fried or steamed fish you will ever have from a store front. And seriously maybe the cheapest. My go to is the fried flounder sandwich, $5 today, sometimes $6 cash for two huge pieces depending upon market price. They give you the tarter and lemon and tons of other condiments and spices to put on yourself, just how you like it, before they neatly wrap it up and bag it for you. I always tip them two bucks. Been coming and thankful for them for the last 25 years when they used to be a block south. There are similar looking joints but none nearly as consistently good as Dyre Fish is. I have tried so many, hoping. It is the oil they dont allow to be used too long and the fresh fish picked up daily at Hunts Point Fish Market. And the prices have barely gone up in all that time.“

“The food and service was amazing!“

“Very good service. Food was very flavorful and had an overall great experience.“

“I attended a surprise party this Saturday evening. The cuisine was preselected, waiter service was excellent, should receive raises. The table arrangement was very poor. The party was downstairs in one of the private rooms. We were 25 people at one very long table, basically the length of the room, which made it difficult for guests to get around the seated persons at the head of the table on either side. Having two tables would have been a better arrangement, but one long table was not conducive for conversation since we were so far from the other end of the table. The food; not many complaints, I really didn’t have a problem. I didn’t have a lot of food, but it was delicious. The dessert, sorry not very good. Those Famous Crepes(palacinkes) sorry not that great. A lot of crepe and not a lot of filling. The dish was served with fruit, unfortunately this fruit was not in season, so the watermelon although it added color to the dish, upon tasting it, left much to be desired. Why not serve fruit that is in season? No offense to my party hosts who selected my menu for the evening, it didn’t lend itself to the 5 Star Reputation of Dubrovnik’s. I would like to make reservations and splurge on a dinner on my own, I have a feeling I would LOVE the experience! Btw, another plus was the parking!“

“we ordered 2 orders of fried catfish, 1 with sweet potatoe fries and 1 with Mac&cheese, and also a side of collards. everything was made FRESH. crispy and delicious fish & fries, super cheesey Mac and the collards we're great! not the first or the last time I will order from here. reasonably priced for fish around here.“

“Prices were reasonable! Food was served quick and was delicious! Valet parking. Staff was pleasant.“

“Got my lobster roll before they close for the season. No problem about The hot sun the afternoon was extremely blustery. I’ve always loved this place even though it is pricey for a clam shack.“

“Was driving back from New Jersey a couple weeks ago and there had been some accidents and a ton of traffic so we decided to take a unplanned detour and stopped in Great Neck. Happily we found a Great Mediterranean Seafood Restaurant/Bar AND saved on drive time! 😜 The server greeted us with a basket of Warm Grilled Pita & Humus, on the house. Pictured we have the Grilled Anchovy & Chilled Roasted Beet Salad with Scallion & Raddish, Tuna Tar Tar with Guacamole, Seaweed Salad & Raddish Apps The Fish 🐟🐡🐙🦀🦞🦐🦑🐚 was Super Fresh & Plentiful and Plenty to choose from! I even saw the Host presenting a table 2 Whole Fish to inspect, compare and choose from 👌👌👏👏 FRESH! An Incredibly lite white airy Chilean #Seabass and Broccoli with garlic, olive oil, sundried tomatoes and chickpeas, was, for me, perhaps the star of the whole show. Grilled Olive Oil #GROUPER with Roman Green Beans 👌 Lastly a Kid's Steak Tidbits order with Fried & Broccoli.. Pearl was Impressed! Skirt Steak.. whole basket was only like $12 $7 #margaritas 👍👍#fullbar #liny #longislandfoodie #freshfish #mangiawithmaggi #Greekfood #mediterraneandiet #lowsalt #nosalt #healthyfood #goodeats #tellthemmaggisentyou“

“Go there often & always enjoy the beautiful ambiance & the delicious food! Service usually good as well. Definitely recommend it!“

“We tried the shrimp chowder and camaron saltado! Mommy and I would have licked the bowl and plate, if we weren't in public! Then he brought out the passion fruit creme brulee...Heaven!!!!“

“We were pleasantly surprised by the food. We asked our waiter if they had fried clams and he looked at us like we were crazy. He said he had no clue what we were talking about. We just chuckled and said it doesn’t matter. When we got our meal to share, we were shocked to see it being delivered in an anchor hocking glass baking dish 😂 The food was really good though 🙃“

“Honestly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while. The food was incredible, especially the steak, but what really made the night stand out was the service. Everyone was so welcoming and attentive. The atmosphere was also super comfortable and made it easy to just relax and enjoy dinner. You can tell that Lenny and his staff really care about the experience they give their customers. Definitely a place we’ll be coming back to.“

“If you haven't been to Q Grill in Fort Lee yet, you are seriously missing out. We had an great meal, but a few dishes absolutely stole the show.
The experience started off strong because the banchan was incredibly plentiful, giving us so many great sides to taste. A huge standout was the kimchi, it tasted so fresh yet beautifully and well-fermented, hitting that perfect balance of crunch and tang. For the main event, we opted for the Trinity Wagyu combination, and it was spectacular. The beef was incredibly velvety, rich, and luxurious. To call it tender is an understatement—every single bite practically melted in my mouth, packed with that premium, juicy flavor you only get from high-quality Wagyu cuts.
The JapChae was executed perfectly with that ideal, bouncy chew and a beautifully balanced, savory-sweet sesame soy sauce. We also ordered the spicy rice cakes with cheese, which were the ultimate comfort food—perfectly chewy with just the right amount of kick, smothered in melted, gooey cheese.
Between the generous sides, the cheese-pulled rice cakes, and the top-tier meats from the Trinity combo, Q Grill is officially a favorite. Can't wait to come back!“

“I rarely write a review but I have been obsessed with Crab Du Jour since they opened in Harlem. My experience here has been delightful from the food to the friendly and attentive staff members who make customers feel right at home. If you are a seafood lover who’s in the mood for mouth-watering authentic Cajun dishes that won't break the bank, look no further than Crab Du Jour in Harlem; just steps away from the hustle and bustle of 125th Street. Their signature boils are an absolute must-try! They offer a variety of options like Crawfish, Shrimp, Snow Crab legs, Dungeness Crabs and Lobster Tail – all cooked to perfection! Each boil comes with potatoes and corn on the cob and your choice of classic garlic butter, lemon pepper, and the original Cajun or Crab du jour special, sauce. I usually add sausage to my boil; Yummy! Looking for something other than boils, there are plenty of choices! They offer dishes like po’ boys sandwiches which come with fried oysters or fried fish filets. My friend really likes the crispy chicken po’boy. They also offer fried shrimp baskets, or crab cake baskets, just to name a few. Regardless of what you choose off the menu here, you can be sure that it will be delicious and flavorful every single time!“

“Fresh fish every time. Everyone friendly. This is the only fish market I go to. The salmon with steam veggies is a must to have. I refer all my friends here and they love it as well. God check it out and see for yourself you won't regret it.“
