Well well worth it! This hidden gem is located in the heart of kew garden near many local transportation! With ample parking and extremely welcoming staff, the restaurant was well worth the trip! The decor and atmosphere were amazing! Food was extremely delicious and fairly priced! They had a fun bar and a nice selection of cocktails and wines. The knowledge of the staff when it comes to drinks and different wines was top notch and very delicious! Overall, had an amazing dinner and experience.

Will absolutely return!

The food is okay.

It's odd that this place presents such an upscale persona, yet hires substandard bartenders. Additionally, the menu has a ton of typos, which is also odd, and shows their lack of attention to detail.

It's just a fake upscale place, essentially.

I liked my experience at C Kew Gardens.

The food was delicious, and the drinks were tasty. I do have a minor gripe about the food, though. I wish there was more food for the price we ultimately paid. To be fair to the restaurant, I only ordered an entrée whereas my wife had an appetizer, entrée, and dessert. I was still hungry afterward.

The drinks were amazing. I liked the Citron. My wife loved the Mona Lisa.

If you're going to hang out, this is a great spot. If you're coming to eat, get a full course to get properly fed.

Dietary restrictions: They made my carbonara gluten-free. They mentioned it would take an extra 30 minutesto make since they have to change all the water and clean the spot to make it without contaminating the food so I appreciated that.

I first came to this restaurant for a private party early this year. The decor inside is so beautiful, the food was great I had the carbonara, calamari, fried shrimp. Drinks were decent.

Fast forward to August 2024 I decided to dine in for dinner with my sister. I ordered the fried seafood appetizer (calamari, shrimp, vegetables). Calamari was good. I bit into the shrimp and immediately spit it out. It tasted spoiled. I smelled it and it was FUNKY. It definitely went bad. I told the waitress and I didn't want my entree anymore because I ordered the shrimp with white wine sause and pasta. I was afraid the shrimp would be spoiled. Waitress asked if I wanted to order anything else I was apprehensive but took the menu to decide. I decided to choose the Carbonara. The waitress passed my table 4 times. Then I saw her chatting with the other waiter. Take a sip of water by the bar and not once came back to follow up with me to see if I wanted anything else. The other waiter who intially took our order, never came by to check in. I was completely done with this restaurant. Finally the waiter came by he was aware of my complaint of the funky shrimp and asked if I wanted anything else. Told him it took him and the waitress too much time to come back to check in literally going on 10 minutes. It's a quaint restaurant and it wasn't super packed. I told him I was done and we wanted to cancel my sister's order. Told him to smell the funky shrimp (that they never removed infront of me) to see I wasn't making it up. No apology, no care in the world. I will never walk in this establishment again. what a waste of time. Still beautiful inside though.

A really fun evening with friends at C Lounge. Shared the artichoke and fried mixed seafood apps, very very good. We were in the mood for pasta, so had lasagna, carbonara and the most excellent risotto special (also with artichokes). They were all excellent and nice portions. The house Negroni cocktail was also delicious. Service was great, appreciative of our slower pace as we were enjoying conversation.

I visit NYC quite often and always have a complaint of not finding a quiet place to sit with a cup of coffee that has a charling embaince. Now I have found that place. C Kew Gardens has beautiful outside sitting. As well the inside decoration is very classic and charming. It was a very hot afternoon so I had pistachio and chocolate gelato. The taste was very good. And the person who served and took care of my order, I must thank her. I forgot to ask her name, she has tanned skin tone, tall, wide eyes with glasses and curly hair. So I hope the management will understand who she is and thank her from me. She was very kind and sweet. So on top of finding a pleasant place to sit and read and have delicious gelato, her kind yet competent attitude made the experience very wholesome. Thank you.

Cozy and vibrant Italian restaurant with tasty food and drinks. Would recommend for special occasions, and date night!

FOOD: Hands down I have to recommend the ‘Gnocchi Del Giorno’! Creamy, savory and the perfect serving size for one! Wanted to order another one just to-go! My friend ordered the ‘Lasagna Verde Di Bologna’ - this was raved about on IG so we had to try it. They give you a pretty big portion and it’s also very savory and tastes homemade.

DRINKS: My friend and I both ordered the Mona-Lisa and the Siamo alla Frutta. Both fruity, strong and lightly sweet. Highly recommend the Siamo - strong sweet and refreshing.

AMBIANCE: This spot gives off a topical jazz lounge vibe with olive green velvet couches , and lots of greenery. When I say cozy, it is small to medium Sized in terms of space and very intimate. I’ve heard they sometimes have live music and also a dj!

Overall, this spot is definitely worth checking out and not super pricy either!

What a great restaurant, tucked away on a quiet street in Queens! The pasta was cooked to perfection and the meatballs were excellent! Even a simple salad was extra special! And the bread!!!! Highly recommend this place!!!

My friend and I had brunch at this restaurant for the first time. I love the restaurant's interior and ambiance very much, and the waiter was very friendly. Maybe because of the brunch menu, there was no special impression on the food. I wanna try their dinner menu next time. We loved that they served the tea/coffee in the different and cute designed cups.. however I felt $8 was a bit expensive for a small cup of tea / coffee. I might be back there for the dinner.

Overall experience was above average. I can see this being a nice local date spot because it's not loud and it has a cozy vibe. There are a few tables for larger parties of 6-8 where you could enjoy a dinner with family, friends or even coworkers because you'd be able to hear each other. I'd return for dinner and will also try to make it for brunch to see how the food is. I'd recommend the pasta Ragu or Vodka sauce options.

I booked for Sun live music ljnch, fantastic! Mike's music talent was better than I expected. He even did that “Time in a bottle” for me!! ? It was raining when I came & left, however, the food & music experience brought me comfort. I am glad to find this gem. Will visit again, for sure..

The place is lovely - especially in the raised area where it is also somewhat plush. The food was excellent and portions large. The appetizers were rather expensive but the entrees more reasonable. The service was excellent and the staff very pleasant. I can't wait to go back again!
