“Went here last weekend to have lunch with our daughter who goes to St. Johns. Parked right on the corner (Metered ) no parking lot for those wanting to know. Mostly college crowd. Service was quick and good. Photos from others are the same as ours so i won't post. We would definitely go back again.“
“Appetizer was a crab cake. Winner! Had the wood grilled shrimp and grits. WONDERFUL! My lady had a medium rare burger which was excellent ! I also had the Hawaiian Pineapple Cosmopolitan! WOW!Overall I was very pleased and will definitely be going back!“
“Great place to have seafood . Food is very delicious . I had a dragon roll which was good size . Bass was melting in my mouth and buttery but lacked seasoning. Fries very good size but not crispy. They need to work on fries . Greek salad was more of tomato salad than Greek salad . Lacking major Mediterranean elements .Dietary restrictions: Kosher“
“The best place to eat on city islandAnd the valets are friendly and professional. I just keep going back the food is great and the guys at the valet are great they give you the option..(they park your car or you do ) .I say again triple A service in side and outParking: One of the best valet services I have ever encountered. 5 star ?Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access in and out“
“We went late night and really liked the food, beef, lamb, squid skewers were all very flavorful but not overly spicy. Draft beer was very good. It took a while to get out ramen stir fry, but it was pretty tasty! The lamb skewers are pretty big, so don't order too many at first “

The warm welcome from both staff and fellow diners sets the stage for an unforgettable experience. I was like, "why is everyone clapping?" Prepare your taste buds for a rollercoaster ride of deliciousness! One visit was all it took for me to fall head over heels for their mouth watering menu. Whether you're craving oxtails, irresistible jerk chicken, or hmmmmm... theeeee honey-glazed salmon that's seasoned to perfection, Cookerz Blend delivers every time! Ha, there's more, you should taste their rasta pasta, it's so divine... heavenly! Oh yes, the fried chicken wings that practically melt off the bone with each bite. oh, oh, oh, and let's not forget about the pepper steak and the curried goat - juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. Even if you fancy yourself a kitchen whiz like myself, Cookers Blend culinary magic will keep you coming back for more. They kept pulling me back in, like what the hell is their secret ingredient? With each visit, I'm not just dining out, I'm embarking on a flavor filled journey that's keeping me hooked. Don't take my word for it, experience it for yourself, trust, you'll thank me later. Prepare to become a lifetime devotee. Thanks to ALL the staff, you got a lifetime customer!“
“We have had dinner at this restaurant several times. The environment is very tasteful, the service is very good, and the various dishes are very exquisite in workmanship. We highly recommend this place and will stay here again if we come back to New York.“
“I remember from years ago that the soft shell crab was good, I don't remember what else made me bookmark this place to return. My partner loves his branzino fish. I had the skirt steak, it was tender, flavor was decent. The service was top notch. I will be back.“
“Celebrated son's Birthday...was looking for a special experience. French Onion Soup, Clams Casino, Filet Mignon, and Stuffed Pork Chop plus two scrumptious unique deserts hit the mark. I recommend Chadwick's if you are looking for what was only available in Manhattan. Delicious food, and professional staff who knows how to make the customer feel appreciated.“
“Our family comes here frequently because you can't go wrong with the food, drinks or service. Their mac n'cheese is my kids favorite and it's often hard for my husband and I to decide what to eat because everything is just so, so good.Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating to families“
“George Martin The Original is an amazing restaurant with exceptional food and service. Parking can be tough in Rockville Centre but George Martin has plenty of parking in the back. The bar is very large with plenty of seating...regulars often eat at the bar to chat with people around them and the wonderful bartenders. Reservations are recommended especially during busy hours. My husband and I started with two signature drinks...coconut Margarita and French martini. One better than the other. We shared a wedge salad which was split in the kitchen and chopped. Delicious! We both had steak, my favorite is Skirt steak, his filet mignon. Both cooked perfectly to our liking...dessert was pecan pie sundae... yummy... The service is the best around...especially the manager Suzanne who walks around making sure everyone is happy...can be a bit loud but the energy is contagious....love it there and so will you“
“If you are looking for amazing Jamaican food AND outstanding customer service, look no further! The owner only sells quality food and it is a family owned business. Amoya (hope I spelled it right) is mostly there serving the food whenever I go and she is an absolute pleasure to interact with. I can honestly say they serve their food with LOVE and GRACE. Money spent here is money well spent.“
“My absolute favorite Greek restaurant! They have several locations, but I like the one in Bayside the best because I find it's not as crowded as the other ones. The parking here can be a little tough but there is a municipal parking lot about 3 short blocks away and you can also take public transportation there, it is about a block away from the Bayside Long Island Railroad station. Try their steak its my favorite, but I also recommend the octopus, and their fish is always fresh and delicious, but you really can't go wrong with anything you get here. This place is always super clean, the service is always great and they pour a great drink. Now, this is an edited review from my original because i just had to mention Arif, who is the general manager. When you meet Arif you will understand why this place is so great. The guy makes you feel like family and makes sure you have a top-notch experience. Well done, Arif. What else can you ask for! My advice to you is stop reading this review and get your a** over there! Enjoy!!Parking: There is a municipal parking lot about 3 blocks away“
“I been here twice already for dinner. The chef and host very friendly. Food is delicious, vegetables and fish cooked perfectly grilled or fried. Stuffed calamari A plus. This place is small and has a nice bodega feel to it. Hope it stays that way. Feels like a hidden secret gem.“
“My recent experience was exceptional, thanks to the outstanding service provided by Daria. From her warm greetings to her attentive care throughout the meal, every interaction was a testament to her professionalism and dedication. Highly recommended for both delicious food and impeccable service.“
“Excellent Service with our server, David Nunez. Great suggestions by him. Stuffed crab meat shrimp as appetizer, bacon wrapped mozzarella served with a side of Lobster Bisque soup and tuna tartare with avocado. Scallops served with a asparagus and creamy risotto was delicious as entrees. Meal ended with a Creme Brulee topped with sliced strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Great experience all around.Parking: Valet parking available.“
“The food was incredible; it's feels like these days the restaurants in our area aren't trying that hard and make you feel like you should just accept the garbage food they serve you but not Copperhill; every dish was delicious and beautiful. The service was also great and overall it was an awesome experience. We can't wait to come back and try the brunch menu. The restaurant and bar area is also beautiful.“
“I was visiting the Flushing area for a concert and wanted to visit something near the Airbnb. This is a wonderful location which is very authentic within the area. I kept it simple and ordered fried rice, and there was so much food. I had leftovers which stretched two more meals. The inside environment is casual and simple. The service is phenomenal. Easy access and a wonderful experience.“
“Simply the best place I’ve ever been. The price is RIGHT. The quality is great. It’s a creative, collaborative, and tasty food experience and Spring Shabu Shabu takes it to the next level. The green tea soft serve as the finale had my whole birthday party crew slumped in bliss. And the staff were kind, friendly, and patient.“
“This place is the spot for a perfect date night or chilling with a small group of friends.The drinks are popping and the food is really good.We order the happy hour oysters (great choice) the home made bread ( nice and warm came with 4 pieces) the slow baked salmon and the lobster roll. Everything was perfect. Definitely would come back.We paid for parking across the street and they have once bathroom (I noticed people getting up and having to wait for the one bathroom)“
“In my opinion the best Indian food in the Kew Gardens area. The chicken vindaloo and garlic naan where great. My wife and I also tried the lamb biryani, which was to die for. The owner is friendly and my made our afternoon even better with his excellent and personal service.“
“We have been coming here since the late '80s and it is still our favorite seafood restaurant on the island (The steaks are excellent too). The staff is always very helpful and the service is consistently excellent. Highly recommended; you won't be sorry you came here.“
“The service was excellent. Very loud on Peak Busy times. Seating is very tight. They pack you in. If you are looking for a quiet, intimate setting, this is not the place on busy peak times. The food was okay. Steaks are great. Salad was okay. You are going there for the steaks. I had stuffed shrimp with crab meat. Real crab meat. It was a little on the dry side. The potatoes were good. The chocolate cake was decent, but the actual cake was very dry. Service was amazing, and you are not rushed.Parking: Valet parking“
“Service was great Both the pastas were pretty good. The chicken dish was great too however the side order of pasta was very bland and cold. They just added tomato sauce on top. Also got mussels for appetizer and it was great. Definitely recommend.“
“First time here - after being asked 2-3 times, I finally decided to make the trip, not a huge fan of seafood but I’m glad I did. Hands down, the best flavor ever. I ate more seafood today than in the past 3 years. Clams and oysters were super fresh and delicious… the lobster combo (must try “FRY”) is goddamm addicting… their seafood pancake was also hands down … one of the best pancakes out there however i do wish for it to be a little bit more crisper … but no dipping sauce needed. Packed with seafood and flavorful.Atmosphere- spacious, definitely comfortable without feeling claustrophobicService- the server was super nice and friendly.Will come again. For sure!“
“It give’s Italian family love. The personality of the staff to how they greet you with food at the door while you wait. The potions are only comparable to what your loving grandmother would give you, they are so huge. The options of sauces and pasta are amazing. I loved the giant garlic knot and the fried ravioli for appetizers. The chicken Panzanella was to died for, I literally cant wait to go back just for that. My family had chicken Alfredo and chicken parm. All the options were great. The lemon drops are some of the best I ever had. There’s tons of parking, the wait wasn’t too long, and yeah you just have to visit!Parking: The restaurant is in a shopping center so the parking is free and plenty.“
“Somtum was so delicious. Somtum usually has a strong fish sauce flavor but this one was most lemony and light. The chili powder is a perfect addition to spice it up.The pad kee mao was amazing. The chicken was soft and flavorful and there was the perfect mix of vegetables.We also got the ribs and it was pretty decent but it is meat on the bone so a bit more of a hassle to eat.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Villa Milano, and let me tell you, it was an experience to remember! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that instantly made me feel like family. The crew at Villa Milano is truly exceptional - attentive, friendly, and always ready with a smile.Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the pizza. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? The pizza at Villa Milano is nothing short of spectacular. Each bite is a symphony of flavors, with a perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and toppings atop a delectably crispy crust. Whether you're a fan of classic combinations or craving something a bit more adventurous, Villa Milano has something for everyone. Trust me when I say, you won't be able to resist going back for seconds (and thirds)!But what truly sets Villa Milano apart is the atmosphere. It's not just a restaurant; it's a place where memories are made and friendships are forged over mouthwatering slices of pizza. Whether you're dining in with friends or grabbing a takeaway, you'll always leave Villa Milano with a smile on your face and a satisfied stomach.In summary, if you're in the mood for delicious pizza served with a side of warmth and hospitality, look no further than Villa Milano. It's a true gem in the world of pizza restaurants, and I can't wait to go back for another slice of perfection.“
“Love going to Bigelows i’m sitting at the bar the experience is great watching the staff freshly batter seafood and putting it right in the fryer right in front of you. The New England clam chowder is like no other. It is very delicious and creamy the perfect consistency for clam chowder. Definitely the best around the Ipswich fried clams are my go to favorite. They are fried to perfection and very clean oil which makes the food very good because the oil is always clean that they cook in. The people that work at Bigelow’s are great. Always welcoming and fun to hang out with by the bar while you eat your delicious seafood, no matter what you get I highly recommend coming here if you are in the area and you love seafood, you will not get any fresher!! Always leave happy and full from delicious FRESH seafood!!! 10/10“
“The salads were crisp and refreshing complement. The soups, a comforting highlight, added warmth to the dining experience. A good spot to dine with friends on a casual night. Super friendly servers who were attentive but not overbearing ? The steamed egg was *chef's kisses*“
“This place is so good. They have amazing Italian food although it's in an unexpected place. The servers are also super nice and friendly and the ambience is modern, clean, and pretty cute. I think sometimes they have live music and that's really nice. Make sure to try their pastas. Super delicious“
“Absolutely fantastic! What a gem!We were in town for a very quick visit and stumbled across this amazing restaurant!We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was simply delicious. Tender, cooked perfectly, and very tasty.As a main dish, I ordered the special seafood pasta fra diavolo. It was amazing. My wife ordered the branzino special and that too was divine.We closed out with a tiramisu that was one of the best we ever had.Added bonus, Tuesday is 40% off wine, so we had a great bottle for a super deal!Lastly, Cristian, our server was top notch!We will highly recommend this incredible restaurant with great ambiance and over the top food!“
“Had a birthday celebration for a party of 8. The reservation, table and service was excellent. Highly recommend it. Be prepared to order the minute your waiter comes by as it gets quite busy and it may take a while to get your entrees.Vegetarian options: Grilled tomatoes are delicious“
“Ordered delivery, guy on the phone was super nice, customized my whole order, delivery guy called in advance, followed my directions. Appreciate that. Food came and was looking fresh!!! ? And ? food was amazing. Really really yummy ? it looks good in the pics and it tastes good... A1 BURGER NEEDS FRESH ONION though ?. Sides are amazing as well. Will definitely be a customer again.“
“We have been coming here for over half a year and it’s our go to spot for sushi. It’s the only place outside of Manhattan where we can get fish that doesn’t cause my skin to react. The quality and preparation is ways above the local sushi joints.“
“This place is a family favorite of mines. Not only is the customer service always great but the food never fails to make me ask for a to-go box. For 5 people we paid $360+ with a tip. I would say this is the best location for seafood in all of city island. There is a reason this place is separated from all other restaurants in CI. Families, couples, even children love coming here. One night, they sang 3 birthday songs in a row. This place is serious business and I wish them well in the future. GEMS OF THE BRONX!“
“Tried this restaurant because it was close to the hotel we were staying at. Had the dumplings for an appetizer with the complementary bread and sauces. All were incredible, full of flavor. The lamb kabob was also delicious. The chicken kabob would've been better if it came with a sauce, but the flavor was still nice. Services was fast and friendly. Would dine here again.“
“Great family feeling. Delicious food...owner???.Had my birthday dinner tonight....can't wait to go back!!!!Kid-friendliness: My 7 year old granddaughter Abigail loves it there. She can practice the two words she knows in Italian... Ciao Bella and loves the food“
“I have been to this place several times now and after the first time that I came I will always bring a new friend. I really like this place because first off the atmosphere is banging. It's very beautiful with its futuristic vibe and ocean theme, its magic video walls constantly provide a diverse feast for the eyes. The food and cocktails are wonderful and I love the karaoke! I can't wait to sing to you.“
“Good food, with mostly hits and a couple of misses. Really good were the baked clams, mussels, stuffed artichokes, Veal Marsala, and linguini w/ clam sauce. The eggplant parm was burnt and the sole oreganata was soggy. Be prepared to be requested to leave when they are busy (we were, while we were still drinking our coffee)Nevertheless, I would still go back.“
“Exceptional Portuguese restaurant on the busy Austin Blvd in Island Park. This small, unassuming locations reveals quite a treat once you walk in the door. A warm ambiance is present from the both the decor and personable staff. All of the food was delicious from the pork and clams to the meat platter. 10/10 experience.“
“Educational dinners in Queens typically do not work with my schedule as I only periodically work in the borough. However, my schedule aligned with a dinner being held at Il Toscano - and since the topic was of particular interest to me I made plans to attend. Two of my colleagues who were joining had great things to say about the restaurant, so I was really excited to check it out. There seems to be two Il Toscanos, one in Commack and the other here in Douglaston. The latter is conveniently located right by the LIRR - you can actually park in the station's lot and they'll validate it. Walking in, I was immediately greeted with old school vibes - the restaurant opened in 1985 and it doesn't look like the styling was changed much. That's a complement by the way - it doesn't look dated and has been kept up and refreshed in a very strategic way. In addition to the main level dining room, they have an upstairs dining room where we were seated. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that we had full access to their menu, and were able to order an appetizer, entree, and dessert. This is rare when going to one of these dinners, as I'm usually limited to certain menu items. They don't have a large menu - sections are marked off for apps, salads, pastas, and entrees. I decided to start off with the Mediterranean pulpo; I really enjoyed this - it was a sizeable octopus leg which was served with white beans and andouille sausage all in a tasty Romanesco sauce. All of the flavors worked really well together. For my main I went with the Semolina Crusted Jumbo Shrimp. The shrimp were lightly breaded and served with crispy leeks and risotto. The dish was good - the shrimp were a good size and the risotto was cooked well. At this point my colleagues and I all wanted to try each other's dishes so we did some swaps. One of them had ravioli stuffed with spinach and cheese which was quite good. My other colleague had the lasagna which was made with a bolognese and béchamel sauces; this was good too - the béchamel was an interesting addition and the pasta was cooked al dente. For dessert I had their signature Napoleon which was super creamy but also light and airy; the flavor and texture were on point. Service was great, food came out a good pace in relation to the presentation and everyone was friendly. Overall, I had a great time at Il Toscano - this was one of the best educational dinners I've been to in a while and part of that is due to the great experience that the restaurant provided. I would definitely return for another meal.“
“We recently moved to Lynbrook and Gallery Four is one of our favorite restaurants for take-out. We order frequently. Our meal comes with salad and bread. Their food is delicious, fresh, and affordable. We have ordered chicken francese, lasagna, chicken parm, penne alla vodka, and garlic knots. Will continue ordering from them and trying new meals. ?“
“This is just like being home & the atmosphere is very comforatble. The service & staff are extremely attentive and very pleasant, especially Robert & Cheech. The drinks & food are terrific and the dinner specials are extraordinary & delightful. We always enjoy ouselves and it makes for an easy decision to want to come back.“
“Please only let your best friends know about this place!We wouldn’t want it overrun with crying babies and loud gatherings. The only thing better than the pleasant atmosphere, is the delicious food.It reminds me of dining in a small village in Europe.“
“Had the bacalao fritters as an appetizer. They had small shards of bone in them. We each pulled bones out of our mouths. My friend ordered the cod named after restaurant. Had bones. No where in menu does it tell you that their plate is BONE IN. Made meal unpleasant.I had lamb chops. I must say they were thinnest lamb chops ever anywhere. Usually they’re 3 double chops in every place I’ve had them. Here they’re 4 single chops so thin you can’t get them medium rare as I ordered. I’d say go but ask lots of questions.“
“I applaud the effort because we came in six wheel chairs strong and four people walking for a total of 10 people. I don't disagree much with where we had to sit to eat certain foods however business is business and I understand all in all the food was great. I would have given five stars if all else was equal.“
