“This place it's so cute! A must try for sure. Their food is amazing good! I went with my girls to celebrate our birthdays and it did not disappointed. Coming back for sure!“

“Great food!! Great drinks! Just come and enjoy!“

“The cocktails are competently-ish made, if nothing spectacular, though it's nice to see the Jet Set theme continuing with both an Aviation and a Paper Plane on the menu. It's decidedly not a craft cocktail spot, though it definitely would be amazing if it were. It's a hotel bar. It's a hotel bar with hotel bar prices. But what a hotel. What a hotel!

Get a Martini. Enjoy the mother of all conversation pits. Watch the art on the big split-flap board.“

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

“💯👌 Drinks ✅ Food ✅ Vibe ✅“

“Elevated yet approachable, with spot-on attention to detail. Creative cocktails and draft beer. Seasonal and unique take on traditional cuisine, and on top of it all, truly genuine hospitality. Muchas gracias, Ravi, Maddie and Gloria. You are absolutely killing it here.“

“Great food, drinks and ambiance though music was pretty loud. Went for dinner and DJ was spinning good r&b and old school hip hop. Every dish we got was amazing. Muhammara was nutty and sweet, with a lot of depth. Labneh was simple and fresh. The focaccia for the dips came out cold and was doused in oil- so that could have been much better. The grilled chicken skewers were amazing, perfectly tender. And the lamb dish was very flavorful. Overall, had a lovely experience and would come again.“

“Such delicious food and great service! I ordered the kabob koobideh with a sharbat to drink and it was the perfect meal and pairing! My only complaint would be how noisy the dining areas are- it's a popular place so it's always packed, and the subway tile on the walls bounces the voices and noise. It's also hard to get a table, and reservations are competitive, but it is worth it!“

“We had our wedding at Rialto and couldn’t imagine a perfect ceremony and reception.

Dominic and the Rialto team were incredible. Super attentive and went out of their way to make sure our day was as special as can be.

We have no idea how but they managed to make sure the food was always fresh and hot when served, even the branzino, which is not easy to do all at once for ~75 people. Seriously impressive.

They really outdid themselves and we will definitely come back to Rialto for dinner which now holds a special place in our hearts. ❤“

“I definitely recommend ! Perfect spot to hangout with family and friends ! Thank you abhi for a very fun weekend“

“Be sure to check out karaoke on Mondays. The karaoke system they use is Karafun. It has a wide selection of songs. The karaoke mics are a little faulty, meaning they will go in and out during your songs.
All the Bartenders are no-nonsense, so it does feel pretty strict, but I'd rather that bartenders who chat too much with their friends and always take smoke breaks...
Drinks are reasonably priced, and the alcohol pour is sometimes too weak.“

“Wowoww 🥹🎀💗 the food was SO delicious I genuinely almost cried 😭✨ The salmon & tuna avocado were absolute perfection, and the gyozaaaaa 🥟💞 literally obsessed. And the butterfly pea yuzu lemonade?? So pretty and refreshing 🦋🍋💙 Everything was perfect 🩵🩵🩵 already dreaming about ordering from tora 🎀✨“

“Off City is truly one of the most unique and enjoyable places I've visited in Astoria. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed by an amazing atmosphere that's both inviting and intriguing. The entire experience feels thoughtfully curated, making it a place you genuinely want to spend time in.
What really sets Off City apart is the staff. The employees are incredibly engaged, attentive, and genuinely care about their customers. Their level of involvement and customer service is second to none, they make you feel valued and appreciated from start to finish.
The combination of the great ambiance, outstanding service, and overall experience makes Off City a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for something special in Astoria. It's refreshing to find a business that takes such pride in creating a memorable experience for every guest.
I'll definitely be coming back. Keep up the amazing work!“

“A friend recommended this place so, today, we decided to give it a try. We arrived there right after they open and the place was empty- as expected. We sat in the patio. The space is clean, small but cozy and well decorated. Nice atmosphere; however, I couldn't help but wonder where was the emergency exit because I felt a bit confined with tables, chairs, restaurant equipment, kitchen and restrooms within inches- not even feet- of each other. But anyway, the servers were friendly and didn't rush us to order. I liked that. We ordered an espresso martini, a passion fruit margarita and a lemonade. We also had the chicken empanadas, the bbq wings and the shrimp taco. Everything was good and presented in good timing. We liked that the background music is diverse and the volume right on point.
I'm giving 4 stars because I found it a little pricey. The Golden Hour prices are just a couple of dollars less than the regular prices and, one more thing, the place is not handicap accessible and older folks may have to be careful with the steps at the entrance and the limited space inside.“

“the place is phenomenal the pizza is outstanding you get treated with love like family once you walk through those doors the cocktails are creative and delicious Caesar salad oh my God but the pizza unbelievable I recommend this place to the world🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕“

“This bar is amazing and is one of my favorites in the neighborhood. They have fantastic Happy Hour deals ($10 cocktails and $1 oysters). The oysters are huge and fresh.

Also wanted to give a huge shout out to the jazz band on Sundays. They’re incredible musicians and really elevate the experience.

Highly recommend this gem of a bar!“

“Muy bueno y elegante lugar.“

“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 and drinks are amazing! I highly recommend a mango margarita. The Picadinha is very good and my Go-to. Order the PDQ once you sit down because it is delicious and baked to order.

The service is a bit slow but if you have the time, I recommend!“

“Saturday night and we wanted to have something good and different to eat. Google helped to make it ! A great experience ( the service was great) and delicious food ( steak sandwich SUPERBLY DELICIOUS and the chicken one on the second place! But when a dessert time comes it was from another planet!! The most tasty and amazingly delicious handmade vanilla bean ice cream (the one with coconut and some kind of liquor) was the cherry on top of the night. 100 % recommended restaurant“

“Excelente lugar mi respeto o para el dueño excelente servicio al cliente no como 809 ahí es lo mismo la misma pela“

“One of the great cocktail bars in Astoria. It's my go to spot. I've been there at least a dozen times. I'm a hospitality professional for 25 years in 3 Michelin level dining and as an owner. Needless to say I know a good bar program. Keep up the good work crew. Ownership still tends the bar on Saturday.“

“Food was phenomenal, loved everything, one of the best places I’ve ever eaten at“

“Quality establishment with style …. Recommended A++“

“Love this place to pieces! Invited all my girls for sing-a-long Saturday and every single person had a blast here. The food is delicious and the vibes are immaculate. Service could be improved but overall the experience is always a 10/10 here. Such an affordable spot to have a fun get together with friends. Will come back again and again!“

“Best old fashions in Astoria.“

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

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

“Always a great time at Skytown !!!“

“food is amazing and cocktails even more so. highly recommend!“

“I love the food, and the vibe and service were great. But for an average sized branzino, I didn’t expect to pay $68. Everywhere else in NYC, branzino typically costs around $36–$42 max.
I’ll definitely go back, but I wouldn’t order the branzino again.“

“Brooklyn native but just moved into this area with my man, so we had to check this place out. Stopped in mid-day for food and drinks and it did not disappoint!

We ordered karaage, hamachi crudo, a roll, shishito peppers, brussel sprouts, scallop ceviche, and the spicy salmon crispy rice. Everything hittt

Had some unfiltered sake and a cocktail.
And Mikey behind the bar was amazing, super attentive, made excellent recommendations, and took care of us the whole time. One of the best food and service experiences we’ve had in Brooklyn.

New neighborhood spot unlocked. We’ll be back.“

“My wife and I have been here on several occasions, and the food, cocktails, and great service never disappoints!

We enjoy coming to Bar Dalia so much that we reached out to see if we could have a small gathering here to celebrate our daughter's 6 month birthday with close friends and family. Bryan responded to our request with such a warm, welcoming, and accommodating response, it really encouraged us compared to some of the other places we had inquired with. We had our private event last Saturday, and it was absolutely amazing. They were so easy to work with, the appetizers we chose were a hit with the guests, and even though we probably overstayed our time limit, they never made us feel rushed to leave or as though we were a burden. That was awesome, and Bar Dalia remains one of our favorite go to locations to enjoy a nice evening out!“

“Came here in for a quick drink while I was waiting for a show and couldn’t be happier. Friendly staff, great drinks and a very relaxing atmosphere. If you are looking to unwind after a long day with a perfectly crafted drink this is the place to go. Austin was my bartender and I had the Gentlemen Buck.“

“Excellent atmosphere, amazing food, and such a fun experience! I went to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and we had an incredible time. The staff were wonderful, the music was great, and everything about this place was just perfect. I truly loved the whole experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, great vibes, and a fun night out! ❤🎶🍽“

“I tried the Wandering Barman's collection of cocktails over the weekend, and I must say that they exceeded all expectations! These handcrafted drinks were fresh and tasted better than if a professional bartender had just made them. I can't wait until they are available in Washington, they will be a staple in my home bar! Cheers!“

“everything was delicious, atmosphere was fantastic, service was great. Highly recommended!“

“Wonderful food in a beautiful garden setting ( indoor seating also French cozy)“

“I went to this establishment on Cinco De Mayo and when I mean they are the sweetest people ever. It’s a family owned restaurant and the atmosphere gives that. Me and my cousin was served right away. The drinks were delicious and the tacos 5 out of 5. Although I didn’t get to experience their entire menu because they just made a menu for that day I was so pleased. I had a conversation with one of the workers who took time out to speak with me and my cousin she gave us the history of their restaurant and more. God bless them. They gained a returning customer for sure. Can’t wait to go back and experience the full menu. If anyone loves authentic Mexican food and your in the Bronx please go check them out you won’t regret it.“

“unos delos mejores restaurantes en la cuidad de long island la comida es espectacular con sabor criollo ..el ambiente muy familiar“

“Look on Yelp for an extensive review.“

“Great spot for a date night or just sitting by the bar for small bites and drinks! The food here was amazing. We've been here a few times and usually get a few small plates to share and every dish is fantastic, particularly the Spanish meatballs and the fresh calamari! The drinks are always great and feel like they're made with fresh ingredients!

This is definitely a hidden gem for those who are local but also deserves all the hype it can get.“

“I recommend everyone that requires excellent pallet for their dining pleasure, service that is second to none and great mixology, then Have It Haviland’s Way“
