Restaurants in Ridgewood

“Fantastic food, twist on classic Americana. Great drinks and service”

“I traveled all the way from Upper West Side because a friend suggested it, and it was absolutely worth it!!! I loved the atmosphere, the restaurant, the wine list, and the food! I highly recommend trying the fagioli all’uccelletto, and don’t miss their pastas, we had a phenomenal cacio e pepe, and the cotoletta alla bolognese was truly amazing. Food is so authentic and spontaneous!!! We shared a bottle of their Poderi Melini Chianti Classico, which was perfect with our food and was recommended to us by Jacopo, in his typical Tuscanian accent. I’ll definitely be back! Ridgewood has a great Italian spot. What a discovery!”

“Great craft beers. Loved everything we tasted.”

“This place is a must-go for anyone planning to visit the city. The staff is phenomenal, the food is delightful, and the layout is so fun! Everything is super cool and authentic. Definitely visit it if you have a chance!”

“Saludo banda estoy aquí Las chilangas les recomiendo que la quesadilla 🌮están súper delicioso vengan ah pasar con sus familia y el servicio es espectacular.”

“Got the VCR 16 pie. The Cesar salad with chicken cutlet and parm garlic bread sticks. Pizza was definitely above average a smash between old world and modern style. Thin crust but not to thin. Bread sticks were classic the side garlic butter sauce is a nice complement.

The Cesar salad is as advertised incredible. 100% recommend. Dressing and cheese is perfect.
On 4 stars for service because they didnt have to go utensils at all, even when asked.
Atmosphere seemed pretty good though I did take out.”

“I love the wait staff and the owner was extremely attentive to the patrons. I will definitely be back”

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.”

“The food is amazing! We had the mussels, Brussels sprouts, artichoke hearts, chicken, shepherd’s pie, fish sandwich, and burger. The drinks were wonderful and the ambiance was so much fun. Really had a laugh at the bathroom with all the googly eyes.”

“I can’t say this enough, this is the best burger I’ve ever had!!! I’m quite literally obsessed and shamefully order weekly!! The fries are to die for as well. 10/10 easily”

“Great service, great food, and reasonable prices! I came here for the sticky mango rice and ended up ordering the drunken noodles with chicken and a Thai iced tea.”

“Cute spot with both indoor and outdoor seating. The sandwiches are good but I wish they came with some chips or a side for the price - they also take ~20 mins to make so be prepared to wait. But both sandwiches (Chicky and Dill Party) were very good with lots of fillings and sauce and flavor. A solid option for lunch as the name suggests!”

“This place is great and has amazing prices. Ever since I moved to Ridgewood from Arkansas it’s been really hard to find things that are good at a good price. The workers are also so friendly, welcoming, amazing, nice, and also handsome. The gentleman that served me, I recall his name being Nathaniel, was very patient with me as I tried to figure out what I would like from this amazing menu. I will hundred percent come back and I’m so excited.”

“Excellent food, nice selection of snd beer and dessert was outstanding. Will definitely revisit.”

“I placed an order late Saturday night and waited an hour but Door Dash canceled the order and my sweets never arrived. I tried again Sunday morning and I was delighted to receive what I ordered in addition to some extra treats for the trouble from the previous night. So very much appreciated. Everything was absolutely delicious. Thank you so much.”

“Reservation Surprise For My Birthday Amazing Service Foid Was Delicious Everything Was Awesome Enjoy My Special Day So Happy Miyama Restaurant Was Our Choice Lilly Server Was The Best : Thank You”

“Excellent food and lovely people!!! Recommended 100%”

“Went for the pancakes and they did not disappoint.
Attentive staff, fast service and good food. The space is kind of small and they were really busy but we went on a Sunday at around 1pm. We did not make a reservation but when we arrived we were told someone was a no show and we were seated immediately.”

“Its such a clean place,with delicious flavors and awesome staff�����. I always recommend it too my friends.”

“Very attentive staff!! Delicious food! I love the music!!”

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

“The pupusas were delicious—I loved the masa and all the fixin’s that came with (coleslaw, 3 types of salsas). My favorite is the chicharron. I ordered a few trays of the mini pupusas (highly recommend for a party, on a small plate) and the staff was so pleasant in taking my order and communicating with me the day of.”

“The atmosphere is really good. The food is very delicious. I recommend the steak quesadilla, the jumbo frozen margarita coco and the service is very kind and attentive,10/10 place !!”

“Genuinely the greatest vegan pizza I’ve ever had. I have had a hard time finding good authentic Italian food since being vegan and this food is actually this best vegan Italian food maybe on the planet. Not to mention the workers here were so extremely nice and welcoming. Very wholesome place. Will come back over and over.”

“The absolute best . Fav items are costillas en salsa verde and their unbelievable barbacoa quesadillas. Totally god tier and it is unacceptable this only has 4.2 stars…my fav spot in this general style in all of bk and queens…”

““Great experience! The food was fresh, tasty, and fairly priced. I really love their salmon dish, it’s my favorite. The fish is always fresh, cooked just right, and super flavorful. Delivery was quick, and the staff was friendly and professional. I’ll definitely order again!”

“A great place to play, great place to see a show. They really care about the sound!”

“great location. perfect size. food is on point 💥💯🇪🇨 great portions and I jave never been disappointed! com on Come All!”

“it is the best food in NY”

“The food is absolutely delicious. I had the bleu cheese burger. The best I’ve ever had. No exaggeration. Can’t wait to go back.”

“Great coffee, just like in their other locations, but they really should upgrade the sizes of their cups to be more in line with the average sizes served in the area.For example, they seem to be using an extra small cup and making that the same price as somewhat larger cups are selling for in the area.”

“We got some tacos and a rice bowl. The food was fresh and super good quality. The guys working there were chill, smiling and patient with us. Love their variety of products, will definitely be back!”

“The service here is very friendly. I love their chicken parmesan hero sandwich (nr 8). Unfortunately, today my sandwich was prepared without a mask or face covering, which made them loose some points.”

“It's places like this that keep neighborhoods going. They're very familiar with the fast pace of Brooklyn & serving their customers in an efficient manner.”

“Great service. love this store, however new old guy making sandwiches is so bad. Always messing up orders and has no respect for others. Only reason this store is getting 4 stars is because of the great staff there in the mornings. !”

“Wonder has been one of our most consistent go-tos. Pickup is usually easy, the system works, the space is clean, and the food has honestly surprised me from day one. When they first opened, it felt like every order was dialed in, like the kitchen cared.

I’ve tried a ton of the menu and there are staples I keep coming back to: the salmon is always generously portioned and perfectly cooked, the sauces and capers are on point, and the broccolini is genuinely one of the best sides I’ve had anywhere - that char + acidity goes with everything. Even the simple stuff like fries and potatoes hit when they’re done right.

That’s why I’m leaving this review: lately I’ve had a stretch of 5-6 orders with small misses that didn’t used to happen - missing toppings, uneven pizzas, a pizza with a huge bubble, broccolini missing the lemon dressing, stuff like that. Not enough to stop ordering, but enough that it makes me stick to the “safe” items instead of exploring.

Still a big fan, still ordering regularly, just hoping the consistency snaps back to how it was because Wonder at its best is hard to beat.”

“The nicest guy of all New York works here. I wish I had gotten his name but he was working the register. If I didn’t live in Astoria I would come buy something here all the time because of how nice he was.”

“Really solid Dunkin’ location. The line moved quickly and the staff stayed friendly and efficient even while it was busy. My iced coffee was made perfectly and the donuts were fresh. It’s a convenient stop when you need a quick pick-me-up, and the store itself looked clean and well maintained. I’d definitely stop here again.”

“Awesome place. Peaceful environment. Clean, safe, and on time for whatever you taste buds desire. Oh, they also sell great nutrition drinks. Top of the line for less than the manufacturers dime. Come visit. Especially on Fridays after 2 p.m..
Thx for making our community a better place. 😉”

“Been coming here for years. Their food is amazing, always fresh and prepared neatly. I usually go for the cheeseburger deluxe or the Summer Slim smoothie. Unbelievable stuff. The service is quick and the staff are friendly. Never been to a better deli, to be quite honest.”

“Standard 24 hour dive joint neighborhood grocery store. Sells deli sandwiches, random household basics, smoke shop items, and similar. They take credit cards and cash, with ATM machine inside.”

“muy buena la atención para el publici”

“The best restaurant in the area ... food, service, drinks, and ambience!!!”

“Here’s a polished, clearer, and more composed version of your review while keeping the strong sentiment and message intact:

This place is nowhere near authentic Cuban cuisine — not even if it were sitting right next to Havana. What they call Ropa Vieja is basically just beef stew. There’s absolutely no understanding of Cuban culture, flavors, or hospitality, which makes sense considering they are not Cuban.

When you ask for something as basic and traditional as moro to go with Ropa Vieja, they act like it’s an unusual request and explain that it’s not included. Their “solution” is to mix watered‑down black beans with white rice and whatever else they decide to throw in. It’s not even close.

The décor doesn’t help either. A few cigar boxes here and there, but most of it is Santa Muerte imagery — so, as you can guess, not Cuban at all. I don’t fault anyone for trying, but don’t advertise something you clearly don’t know how to make. Even something as simple and essential as hoja de laurel — bay leaf — is missing entirely, both in sight and in flavor.

Overall, it feels like a place run by young people without the cultural background or culinary knowledge to deliver what they’re selling.

If you want, I can also rewrite it in a more formal, humorous, or sharper tone.”

“Wow! An iced matcha latte that is over the top excellent. A sandwich that hit the spot at a 10 and bakery items - topped off the stop with a variety. Delicious cakes and a cherry pastry. Oh and remember the marzipan strips! Go now - do not pass go!”

“Great food great drinks awesome sound.”

“Great for a magazine launch. Cult magazine”

“Always delicious! Literally never disappointed!”

“This place can get busy but thats because the food is really that good!! Everyday there food is fresh and delicious plus you can get european products and groceries at the same time 10/10 if you haven't been here deff go!”

“Best.dirty.chai.latte EVER. Pls don’t ever change the way you make it bc it is my favorite drink to order, other places just don’t have the ratios right. Here, It’s the Perfect ratio of espresso and chai. Staff is super nice and overall the place is just welcoming with good vibes.”

“Lovely spot, very friendly staff, coffee to die for yummy ;-) Perfect place to sit down and have a lovely lunch. Can't wait to get back in there.”

“I’m Mexican and very critical of Mexican food outside of Mexico. To start, servers Carlos and Paulina were super friendly, welcoming and attentive. First item on the table? Drinks and house chips. I ordered Jamaica water like I never seen before and the taste yuuuumm. Presentation was key. Chips were super crispy almost like real toasted tortillas (maybe they were) and instead of your typical salsa or pico de gallo, they were paired with a cheese dip with a little twist of hot pepper. Simply delicious. Don’t want to tire anyone but trust me when I say TOTALLY worth it and very reasonable prices and the decor of the place… so so nice. A true gem and highly recommended..”

“We visited 7/24 2:45pm- What an AMAZING EXPERIENCE. Great food excellent service. WE LOVED THIS PLACE first time here and definitely not the last.

We had APPETIZERS:

✅Chicken Tostadas AMAZINGGG FLAVOR
✅The casita plate was so filling enough for 3 people to share. So much flavor al pastor
✅Horchata drink SO DELICIOUS

Our server was super nice and friendly.”

“The Best Pizza and Hero’s!! 👍🏻👍🏻”

“This is the best food in queens”

“Different, welcoming and quaint.”

“Love this place!
So happy it’s just around the corner from me ☺️. The bartenders are amazing, Jessica is such a sweetheart and makes the absolute best drinks. The owner is super cool and really sets the tone for the great vibes here.
The cook always puts out delicious finger foods which are perfect for snacking while drinking. I especially love when they do karaoke nights and bring in live bands, it’s always a fun time. And when DJ Sound Nice plays there, he always has the place rocking with all types of music.

This spot is a total gem—great atmosphere, great people, and always a good time!”

“Maybe the best managed ice cream line I've ever waited in. Shout out to the staff for keeping things upbeat and moving. Most importantly, the ice cream was phenomenal.”

“Local hangout with tasty drinks!”

“The best burger ever! Service impeccable!! I would recommend to everyone!!”

“The bagels are very good!! The worker Alex was super friendly and nice and quick. Definitely 10/10 and recommend. For sure coming back.”

“great place to have some good company.”

“Solid 4 out of 5. The food hits the mark, the drinks are served by skilled bartenders, it's a place you can just walk in and know you'll be able to relax.”

“The second time here... Very nice atmosphere, "real chill"... Very good music. People are kind.... And the girl who works here is so kind and polite. She is awsome. ❤️”

“Amazing service! Highly recommend this bakery. The baker pays attention to detail, I loved my birthday cake. It was delicious and beautiful, it was also delivered on time.”

“If you are looking for sugary drinks that are 2/3 milk/water, this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for real Italian coffee, this may be the best place in the country. Bring cash!”

“I come here often and the people are sweet, the food is good, but I genuinely cannot remember the last time they got my bagel order correct. I’m talking consistently wrong for the past few years. I’m beginning to think they are out to get me.. I almost double checked today, but I saw how clearly the order read, “NO EGG” (currently have major egg ick) and thought…, “you know what? Today they will get it right.”… as I walked home with the brown paper bag… something didn’t feel right.. it was too heavy…. When I opened it, sure enough, there was egg. My order was wrong again. Considering my coffee and bagel cost me $20 with an 18% tip, I’m slightly pissed off. Alas, I’ll be back, but next time I’m checking (I won’t).”

“The lady there seemed a bit overwhelmed although there were less than 10 ppl in the place but fine. It's pretty much a self serve kind of place. Food was yummy, drinks were good too. Not a place I'd visit religiously but may go again.”

“We came by (and had always wanted to since before they opened) for our wedding anniversary. We were a party of four (my husband, our son, daughter, and I), we were promptly seated in the back (they asked where we wanted to sit). Our waiter was very courteous and friendly. Our son ordered pork buns and scallion pancakes; they were very filling for him, and he enjoyed them very much. Our daughter got a bowl of chicken shoyu ramen, unfortunately it was too much for her - she enjoyed her noodle soup very much. Husband ordered pork gyoza and chicken yaki ramen, he was very delighted and it tasted great. I went with tonkotsu ramen. All the dishes were well portioned (for their price). Very clean establishment. Also liked the idea that thier sink is outside of the restroom, it is quite brilliant! We also liked thier curtain that were separating the dining area to the restroom. They were rabbit themed, including a mochi making rabbit in the moon. We anticipate our return!”

“delicious 😋 yummy 😋 wasted no liquor”

“Good coffee ☕️ lots of options”

“Great Ukrainian food - genuine recipes and taste, handmade, fresh or frozen. Also sells some popular Ukrainian food brands and souvenirs from Ukraine.”

“This is a little Gem in Queens. The food is delicious. 😋 Ever felt like you wanted something tasty but couldn’t figure out what? We’ll order from Lugos. Food is well seasoned, big portions, freshly made. That steak is the softest I’ve had in a long time. And it comes with a side. I choose the mashed potato which is nicely done also. Their food is banging!!! You need to try it. Thank me later. FYI This was a door dash order.”

“It's a real fine establishment, grade A! Worldclass, even!”

“The owner is a genuinely nice guy, easy to talk to. Never wait long for my order.

As for the actual pizza, it's a great thin slice pizza. The crust is NOT floppy. It's nice and firm and the flavor of the sauce and cheese is amazing”

“Great beer, great vibe. Can't wait to make it back there again!”

“very nice staff,love the milkshakes here!”

“La atención exelente y muy rapida gracias Retazos bar restaurante”

“Amazing food they definitely pay attention to details great energy. I truly love this spot and the person who took my order was just really really nice and amazing. I suggest everyone eats here. Great vibes.”

“buena comida buen servicio, pero ultimate estan fallando mucho con los leliveris principal fines de semana se demoran mucho , pedi y me llego Asta Las 2 Horas”

“At first I thought my wife poisoned me.... And than it slowly dawned on me that it was probably fruity yummy from.earlier... but my God it was delicious! The whole time I was doubled over and writhing in pain all I could think about was the vanilla flavored yogurt with the m&m sprinkles. It really burns!!.... I can't wait to go back again and get myself another yogurt.... As soon as I'm able to walk.”

“I had such a great experience here! The lady working was incredibly friendly and went out of her way to make me a fish-less encebollado since I don’t eat meat. She was so attentive the whole time and made sure everything was perfect.”

“This place is the best best. I’ve ordered General Tsos bean curd and many Chinese places in the neighborhood and this is hands down the best. They’ll make pretty much any dish vegetarian bean curd edition but the General Tsos is outta sight.”

“I called them at 4pm on a Friday asked about a tiramisu cake for my son’s girlfriend. They did not have it available but promised they would have one fresh for me on Saturday morning and they did not disappoint! It was the most moist yet airy perfect texture perfect sweetness cake EVER! Delicious and beautiful. ❤️”

“Yesterday I went there I ask for
Salmon with mash potatoes and salad omg was delicious. My friend ask for French fries very crunchy and wrap. Highly recommended.”

“This is the best food in queens”

“Have very much enjoyed everything I have bought. Can't wait to go back tomorrow for more. Everyone from the owner on down have been friendly and helpful. I really do enjoy going to Grimaldis, it stands out from all the other bakeries.”

“The meatballs, kielbasa, kraut,beets, and mushroom/cabbage pierogi were authentic and delicious. First time customer and we will be back!”

“Best Pizza Ever!!! Went today for the 1st time and was amazed. Must try!! I ate there…was so good, I had to get a few slices to go.”

“The bagels are very good!! The worker Alex was super friendly and nice and quick. Definitely 10/10 and recommend. For sure coming back.”

“I got a 10 piece hot wings tonight and a pepperoni and grandma slice. The wings cooked fresh were the most bussin and delicious wings I’ve ever had. Incredibly crispy and flavorful - every bite was so enjoyable to the max. Every time I come here everyone is so nice. Love you Joe and John’s 💖”

“Delicious fresh burgers, hot crispy french fries. Everything I was hoping for. I am very impressed by the quality of the food. This is the place…”

I have had a hard time finding good authentic Italian food since being vegan and this food is actually this best vegan Italian food maybe on the planet. Not to mention the workers here were so extremely nice and welcoming. Very wholesome place. Will come back over and over.”

“This place is like a magical oasis. Incredible fast affordable food that taste amazing and is served with a smile. Caveat: I’ve only ever had the chicken over rice or the lamb over rice.”

“Ordered through mobile app and had food delivered to my vehicle. Associate was very courteous and respectful. Will definitely revisit anytime I’m in the area.”

“Wow! An iced matcha latte that is over the top excellent. A sandwich that hit the spot at a 10 and bakery items - topped off the stop with a variety. Delicious cakes and a cherry pastry. Oh and remember the marzipan strips! Go now - do not pass go!”

“Saludo banda estoy aquí Las chilangas les recomiendo que la quesadilla 🌮están súper delicioso vengan ah pasar con sus familia y el servicio es espectacular.”

“Don’t hesitate if you want to eat a good sandwich. $12-15 💵(average) for good quality and you get full. It took like 15 m to wait to bring the food but it was worth the wait. I will come back to try different things. For + food food in NY follow me @elmanudominguez 🍴and I will help you with good tips.”

“It’s decent Good place to get away for some fast food”

“Great selection of burgers, fries, chicken sandwiches. They have bargain deals called biggie bags to get combination of food fries and drink at reasonable price. Servers are great the only downfall is the amount of food delivery people forcing them self before you to get their delivery orders they have no respect even tho staff tries to tell them to wait and not hassle other customers. Worst time to go is late night that's when they get really bad.”

“Great Ukrainian food - genuine recipes and taste, handmade, fresh or frozen. Also sells some popular Ukrainian food brands and souvenirs from Ukraine.”

“Came here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner, and both experiences were superb. The anchovies, tomatoes, lemons, and olives transported me right back to my trip to Sicily.”

“Everything is so delicious here! Try the miso soup and any bowl jr together, don’t miss out on the seaweed salad either.
The onigiris are always so fresh so good:)”

“The pizza was pretty good in the past but today I tried the tacos. They were really good! Good spot to get a quick bite. Also, the only place I know of in the neighborhood that sells Inca Cola IYKYK.”

“I was taken care of by Kenny- I requested steak added onto the quesadilla and it was AMAZING.
Perfectly seasoned
Perfectly cooked
Perfectly dressed.
There was a party going on and the food window was busy- Kenny managed the rush beautifully
Food was coming out quick and hot
10/10”

“Dined in on a random weekday. Came because I was feeling Indian cuisine. They have so many options. I got paneer masala with garlic naan and it was insanely delicious. It came out quickly. Freshly made. Not too packed. Clean. 1000% going back soon.”

“Chicken over rice is the best
They make the best food and the customer service is perfect love this deli come visit
And some of the best employees ali and his boss”

“I love this spot so much. Family owned homemade goodness. Vast options, including breakfast and plenty for vegetarians. Really good sauces. There’s a little market as well. Go support this neighborhood spot!”

“YoYo Chicken is 🔥! The chicken is super tasty, the smash burger is insane, and the portions are big and satisfying. Definitely hitting different.”

“Had my son Birthday past Saturday 4/1. The service excellent Adam totally on point. The food our big group all coming in different times accommodated wings: Lemon Peppers, Buffalo, and burgers and fries, Spicey Margaritas, Beers wide variety etc. The vibe and atmosphere awesome. Location is cozy with the wide screen we’re we screened the Wrestlemania, pool table, different areas were to sit we all had a great time.”

“Great service good selection of coffee the staff is very friendly to what you want and customize it to your liking. Highly recommend going there it's worth it.”

“This place was an amazing find right before going to a show at the Knockdown Center. We had 2 Chicken Fajitas and some Chicharrones. We did not expect to finish the whole meal but it was so tasty that we had to. The service was great and we got a little complimentary shot of liquor mid meal. Great food, great prices and fun atmosphere. Would definitely come back if I was in the area.”

“We recently attended a kids’ party at Willows Tavern and had a great experience. The backyard was a fantastic space for the event, offering plenty of room for the kids to play while still being comfortable for the adults to relax and socialize.

The atmosphere was welcoming and laid-back, making it an ideal spot for a family gathering. The staff were friendly and attentive.

The drinks were enjoyable, and the outdoor setting gave the party a nice neighborhood feel. It’s not always easy to find a venue that works well for both kids and adults, but Willows Tavern did a great job.

Overall, a wonderful place for a casual celebration, and we’d happily return for another event or a meal with friends and family.”

“Best coffee shop in the area. Even with all the coffee shops Ridgewood has to offer, Variety is a standout. Great pastries, excellent coffee, and always fast service. The folks are kind and efficient and I always can find a spot if I am looking to read a little while I enjoy my confetti cookie.”

“Love this bodega! Living around the corner, I’ve been coming since they opened, and I’m so grateful to have a bodega on the block, especially one that’s open 24/7. I don’t love all the changes since the new ownership, but it’s not that huge of a deal. Would love it if they started selling some fresh produce like avocados, and pre-cut fruit cups, and ESPECIALLY more vegetarian+vegetarian protein options in the deli and bring back the selection of lactose-free canned coffees. I just need some healthy options that align with my dietary needs 😩 there’s not even dairy-free ice cream.

The food is decent—it’s a bodega so keep your expectations in check. Very generous with the portions! Could do a better job listening, as frequently enough there’s at least one incorrect aspect to my order.

Someone posted a review a month ago and mentioned being judged for using EBT, but they haven’t accepted EBT as payment in several months now, so I’m not sure if they’re straight up lying or if this was something that happened a long time ago. I’ve never had anything but super friendly service and never once felt judged for using EBT, in fact there was one time I didn’t know I could use my EBT on a specific product and they did me a major solid and let me know. Plus, the person working the counter is usually watching shoppers pretty closely. Not to say the reviewer definitely is lying, it’s just the details don’t add up.”

“Prince & faycel is the best & gave me a very friendly service here at this deli tonight I had a great experience. The sandwiches here are great these two deserve a bonus in tips!! & raises, wallah.”
