We always look forward to his company and warm welcome! Definitely check out Margie’s next time you want a great night out with family and friends!“

“Great place to watch the sunset over NYC! Great drinks and good food! Excellent service.“

“Decided to treat myself to dinner and went to check out this place. Came in during a dinner rush and was seated right away. A nice dark atmosphere. I ordered the NY strip steak and I gotta say it was amazing. Cooked to perfection, melted in my mouth. Cooked like a real steak a perfect medium rare. So good on its own and didn't any sauce but it came with a delicious arbol chilli salsa. Great service with friendly staff. I can't wait to come back and try the lamb tacos amongst other things. I highly recommend a lovely dinner here“

“If you’re craving Chinese food, it hits the spot. I don’t think anything was standout but the portions are big because it’s family style. The dan dan noodles could have more meat in comparison to the amount of noodles it had. Some of the other dishes felt doused in a bit too much sauce. What was nice is you can ask to adjust the spice level for the food. Price seems about right and food came out really fast.

Went on a Thursday night and there was plenty of seating with no wait.“

“Gorgeous spot with amazing martinis
The place is absolutely beautiful: stylish, cozy, and with a really nice vibe. It’s the kind of place that feels perfect for a romantic date or a laid-back evening.
The music was a bit too crossover for the ambiance and my personal taste, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience.
The martinis were outstanding, easily the highlight of the night. I’d love to see a few snack options on the menu to go along with the drinks, but overall, it’s a great spot I’d definitely return to“

“Recently went and although the food and waiter staff were great, we were expecting what we seen on here. There was no performances. An empty space. Apparently there's a 2 hr gap between brunch and dinner. The booking site allowed for a 4pm reservation. When we arrived we were accommodated but looked at funny. We found out that brunch had ended at 3pm. I was really hoping for the full experience I seen here and paid alot and didn't get it.“

“I came here because some friends were DJing in the basement, the sound quality for the speakers wasn’t the best for DJ equipment it seemed, I would describe it as adequate. And I think they just went through a restructuring or remodeling and so it seemed you can only enter upstairs from the main entrance and downstairs from the entrance on the side. Those 2 spaces are no longer connected for customers within the venue. Other than that, this spot was great & I hear it’s Detroit night on May 1st?“

“The burgers at this place were amazing! but the service really kept me waiting. And the atmosphere was strange every always saluted “The Boss.” Who was a man with an eyepatch and a horn on his head? I don’t know was pretty weird. But the food was amazing so I will definitely be coming back!“

“This place was absolutely amazing delicious food GREAT service by our waitress Liz she was in the money I definitely recommend that if you’re looking for a great place to take your family this is the spot. Will be definitely going back in the near future I rate this place 5 stars my girlfriend and myself enjoyed the food environment and music played staff were amazing“

“Loved the food and cocktail menu. You can tell that the establishment knows their food, wine, etc and it comes off in the drinks and food!“

“Delicious, well executed dishes. Had the cilantro beef stir fry (ordered extra spicy - and it was! 🤗), and the black mountain ramen - both were excellent. You self order at the kiosk, which worked great, and the food came out promptly. Highly recommend!“

“I had an absolute blast celebrating my birthday dinner at Vida NYC with my girlies! 🎉 From the moment we walked in, the vibes were on point – super fun and welcoming. They have this awesome birthday flier deal where you get a complimentary appetizer and dessert, which was such a sweet touch (literally)! Our waiter Bryan was incredible – so friendly, attentive, and truly made the night special. He even surprised us with birthday shots, which totally got the party going! 🥂 The food was amazing – flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. We were all raving about our meals and how good everything tasted. Huge shoutout to the Vida NYC team for making my birthday unforgettable. If you're thinking of celebrating something special – or just want a great night out – this is the spot. 💃🏽🎂✨“

“Great staff! Lots of options to choose from and elderly and kid friendly!“

“Delicious food and drinks 😎“

“If you want authentic great Mexican Food & Drink.. Ruta Oaxaca is the best ! Great service , friendly staff and great variety.“

“I was there at Jian Nan Syosset, Long Island. Everything went great!! But, those took the orders needed to be more educated to understand each dishes. We were a fairly larger group than standard party size. Some dished were small and some dim sum served with small quantities, like 3 or 4. Those who order for the large group, should give suggestion to order multiple orders for the same dish. So, each one in the group can have at least one.“

“Food is absolutely delicious!“

“While biking along the beach with my son, we got hungry and were heading toward Subway — he wasn’t sure we could find anything tastier or healthier nearby. That’s when we spotted this cozy little sushi café-bar. We decided to take a chance — and wow, what a discovery!

We sat outside to keep an eye on our bikes and picked a few items at random: gyoza, a poke bowl, a roll, and French fries. And honestly, everything exceeded our expectations — fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying.

Let me take a moment to rave about the fries — they were pure perfection: crispy on the outside, soft and tender on the inside. I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy fries anywhere else after this. I swear, they’ve either got a secret seasoning… or a bit of kitchen magic going on.

The poke bowl was beautifully balanced and fresh. Instead of the usual beans, it had green peas — I usually prefer beans, but I suspect they were out and made a thoughtful substitution. It still worked!

A special shoutout to the staff: even though we didn’t order drinks, they brought us cold water with ice on a hot day — a simple gesture that made a big difference.

I’m definitely coming back with my whole family. If you’re in the area — don’t pass this place by. It’s a hidden gem that knows how to make you feel welcome and well-fed.“

“The best empanadas outside Argentina. The steaks are truly amazing. Great wine list and wonderful cocktails. Very friendly and attentive wait staff.“

“I never knew there was such a cool bar on Roosevelt Ave of all places! I live further east of here in Queens so now I do not have to go all the way to Astoria. The owner Lee is super cool and so are the other patrons. I ended up chatting with strangers and we all had a great time“

“Buena música! buena comida y bebidas!“

“Very nice well deinks, amazing service and the food was good“

“A very beautiful space with cozy sofas, interior and light. The food wasn’t something crazy about: we took potatoes, parsnip soup, and tiramisu latte, they were okay. The place by itself was a little bit dirty on the floor, and some details, as a server that didn’t know that tiramisu includes alcohol in a recipe, and the fact that the same coffee was served in different cups, brought a feeling of mess, however I want to come back for lazy mornings atmosphere.
We parked right near the main entrance, however it’s under construction zone now.“

“I was visiting family and we came to this restaurant, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The overall atmosphere was comfortable yet classy. Our food was prepared and displayed perfectly and the portion sizes were just right. The owner even came over and talked to us to make sure that we were happy and that we were enjoying ourselves. Definitely would come back, I highly recommend Porta 23.“

“our waitress Genevieve is such a gem! she is very attentive considering a busy evening and super sweet! and the bartender April is phenomenal and will do you right with the drinks! definitely would recommend this bar for a classy evening! thank you!!“

“Had an amazing time. The staff were super nice. Would definitely recommend and go back.“

“Nice place! Enjoyed the mimosas.“

“How is it possible that I didn’t review 4747lic here before?!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Every time I go there for weekend brunch, I have to return for dinner! I just can’t get enough of the place. Their Dutch baby “Primadonna” pancake and lobster roll are to die for. Much of what is on the menu it’s imported from Italy of the finest ingredients. It’s always fun to take the ferry across from Manhattan to the Pepsi Cola Sign and walk a couple of blocks. They can accommodate large groups, children, pets, wheelchairs, (you name it) at their outdoor seating. Run there. 😊💕“

“excelente 👌 el servicio es de lo mejor la música la comida y el ambiente“

“Very good music, very nice staff, and the healthy and friendly atmosphere, I loved it, I would go back, I only ordered an appetizer called (picada ) and I really didn't like it that much, I think they should put more meat, and the large one is super big and can eat about 8 people.“
