“Giuliano’s Restaurant is a place where the food is absolutely fantastic. I’ve never ordered something that I didn’t love. The staff are all wonderful. From the first time you walk-in the doors they make you feel like you’re part of their family. I highly highly recommend this restaurant.”
“You really can't go wrong with any of Red's food.And such reasonable prices compared to other island vendors. My personal favorite is her sweet onions and bacon dog, and her chili with potato sticks. Sounds odd I know, but trust me...she has so many unique toppings to make any combo. Then my other fav is an open faced loaded knish. She also does burgers, and baked potatoes, and thee BEST CUP OF CHILI!!! RUN, DONT WALK!!! YOU'LL BE HOOKED.”
“We tried Hook & Reel for the first time and enjoyed it so much, we went back 2 days later. The food was well prepared, delicious, and served hot. Yummy lobster bisque, I ordered a 2nd bowl after finishing the first! Fried calamari was yummy as well. The raw oysters were perfect and the boil with Hook & Reel's own Cajun sauce was outstanding. Our server, Moe, was friendly and very efficient; he makes your dining experience error-free so you can relax and enjoy the meal. The Manager here gets credit for a well-run ship! He really appreciates the customers and it shows. You will definitely want to eat here frequently. Great service, tasty food, relaxed atmosphere - you won't be disappointed.”

“Just got back from a thoroughly enjoyable meal at Shaw-naé’s House on Van Duzer. The sangria was plentiful, the food was fresh, hot and tasty, the wait staff attentive, and the ambience was perfecto (my wife sang to ALL the songs!). Too full for dessert, but I was eyeing that peach cobbler! Next time!”
“We went to RAVAL last night it was one of the Very Best Experience we’ve. have had in a very long time The Food and the Service were Spectacular!!! The Staff was so attentive without being annoying!!!! I have some dietary restrictions and they were very accommodating It was worth the Visit and will be going back as soon as I can!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟’s A must visit!!!! Geri J”
“Highly disappointed went in with a pert of 5 to celebrate a party which was explained. While having our starters waitress informs us they if we don’t mind them adding 2 of their customers to our table so that the same chef will cook for us together.The hibachi grill part only had another party with us being the second & all other tables were empty. We told her we don’t feel comfortable with that and reminded her we are here for a party. So she comes back telling us her manager said it will have to be that way and we left. I can’t be believe that lost 5 customers over 2 and they even had the nerve to tell us to move over for them to add 2 people we didn’t know to our table. If the tables were all full we would have understood why but the whole place was empty. I would never recommend this place to anyone”
“As a chef, I’ve been wanting to meet Chef Peter Macri for a couple years. I was finally able to make the trip to Staten Island. I was blown away by the whole experience from start to finish. Highly recommend checking out this restaurant or Panini Grill. Even living 2 1/2 hours away, I plan to come back more often.”
“We recently hosted a family dinner at Ralph’s Sports Bar. Ralph and his staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything went smoothly and that we were happy. My family thoroughly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. My aunt said the chicken francese was the best that she has had and the wings and burgers were outrageous. We are looking forward to our next event at Ralph’s!”
“While out and about in between appointments, I dropped in at Sushi Wen for lunch.
I’ve gone by it a million times and was curious; they have fantastic reviews online.
It’s a tiny place but the sushi and service were both very good - and they have great lunch specials.”

“This ramen shop is a unique gem that I was very surprised by. It's peaceful and upbeat with a chill vibe to it. The food was delicious and priced appropriately. This tastes pretty close to what I've had in Japan, and will definitely be coming back next time I'm in Staten Island!”

“The pizza crust is thin crust and crispy. Reminds me of the pizza from Grimaldi's and Patricia's at Dumbo Brooklyn. The seafood pasta is a bargain and the sauce was tasty. The eggplant tower appetizer was also very good. The atmosphere is laid back (they use paper plates) and the device was attentive.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“First time here and I got the chicken and beef teriyaki with the noodles and veggies. It was delicious. In general I don't care for sushi, but the teriyaki was great and I would definitely get that again. Even though I liked it that much I'll need to try some of the other dishes on the menu first to know if it deserves a higher rating. Other than that it's a clean place with a friendly staff, not too loud and plenty of seating space and parking.”
“I had a birthday party for my daughter here. In all we were about 20 guests. Kim and husband created a special menu for the occasion. It was absolutely amazing! Everyone raved about how delicious everything was. We had cold antipasto, rice balls, eggplant rollatini, calamari, chicken wings and pizza. There was so much food! I highly recommend Ungaro for any occasion or just dinner which is how I came about going there in the first place. Thank you again for a wonderful, memorable occasion!”
“I love this place. They always have great and fresh food. My favorite has to be the vegetable ramen. It’s so delicious, their chicken wings are flavorful and guns texture is pretty good. I love their bubble tea as well. I order through Uber eats majority of the time, I wonder if I can directly order from this restaurant though. I think I’ll find that out. Today I ordered the matcha green tea bubble tea, usually I order the mango milk bubble tea. They must remember because Uber gave me a complimentary mango bubble tea. This place is highly recommended by me. 10 stars”
“My girlfriend Mary and I celebrated her birthday at The Basement, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was truly phenomenal and the service was excellent—warm, attentive, and professional throughout the evening. The atmosphere made the night feel special, and everything we ordered exceeded expectations. I recommend making a reservation and giving yourself a little extra time for parking in the area. You really need to go—this restaurant is exceptional.”
“Tried this sushi restaurant for the first time with my husband and 1.5 year old. We enjoyed it overall. The service was great, everything was brought out so quickly and all at once (did not love that part, though). The restaurant is a small place. Atmosphere was good/okay. The food was good but not excellent, nothing to write home about.
We appreciated the deal they offered on special rolls -- buy 2, get 1 free!”

“We just left. I had the house salad followed by a medium rare ribeye, my daughter had the Caesar salad, and a medium rare NY Strip my husband had the steak tips volcano (not sure that is the correct name) All of it was perfectly prepared. We Finished dinner with a to die for pecan pie and crème brûlée. Both the food and service were exceptional.”
“I was at a family affair at Angelinas on March 30 2025. I was so impressed with the food, service and atmosphere that I needed to express how amazing the experience was! The food was outstanding! If you are looking for true authentic Italian food, Angelina's is the one. I was so impressed with the service that I needed to shout her out. Her name is Ida, she is from Italy and she was amazing! She ensured that each person was taken care of throughout the event. It is very hard to find a restaurant with a rating of a perfect 10, but Angelina's is! Loved it!”
“My go to Hookah lounge in Staten Island. They make good drinks, tasty hookah, and their food is pretty good. I was surprised. This is a good spot to hang out and conduct a meeting. Met here plenty of times. Music is not too loud during the week. Karaoke nights is fun here. Not too intimidating for shy people. 💯”
“Has a Manhattan feel right in Staten Island. Recommend the salmon and the sangria, which was a bit pricey for me at around $42 per pitcher but worth it.
Well managed.”
“Sat at the bar and CT was serving. She provided awesome service !”

Cheap Eats
“I’m a busy working mom and order from Wonder meals for my family 2-3 times a week at least. I like the variety of choices they offer. We particularly like their salads, Mexican food, a chicken sandwich and poke bowls. Most of the meals are very tasty, fresh and good value for the money. We also take advantage of the ability to order from other restaurants through the wonder platform. I particularly like their customer service because it is super responsive and accommodating if there are any mistakes in the order. I’m really happy that we have a wonder restaurant in our community.”
“Came here with my family after watching a movie, and we were very pleased with the experience. The miso soup was honestly some of the best I’ve had. It wasn’t overly salty like at many other sushi places, where the saltiness can drown out the other flavors.
Everything tasted fresh, and the rolls were especially good. They weren’t overloaded with rice and were packed with plenty of filling. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and left very satisfied.”
“If you’re looking for an amazing pre- or post-workout treat — or just something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling guilty — this place is it. The service is always wonderful, and the Cowabunga Smoothie is one of my personal favorites. Everything they serve is made with natural, organic ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about a bunch of ultra-processed stuff going into your body. It’s refreshing to find a spot that focuses on quality while still making drinks that taste this good. It’s always a great choice when you need a quick energy boost to keep your day going. Highly recommended.”
“First time here. Came from Brooklyn my son found it online. We took out is Godmother for her Birthday. She lives in Staten Island but was never there. Food was Absolutely Delicious 😋 Service was Excellent!!!! Loved it !!! Will definitely come back and so will my Cousin!!!”
“The food is wonderful. Friendly staff and great food. Fun atmosphere for birthdays or parties. Thank you for making my mom’s 85th birthday dinner great !”
“Happy service from start to finish and very quick I might add. The cookie choices this week were outstanding from Dubai cookie to a marshmallow delight and of course red velvet our favorite!”

Overall, this is my new sushi place and I won’t be going anywhere else.”
“"We planned a girls' dinner at ‘OSfizio and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement. The atmosphere and staff were welcoming and inviting, and the food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Gennaro was beyond attentive to our needs, recommending spectacular dishes and ensuring our plates and cocktails were full. We didn't feel rushed out at any point. We felt welcomed life family. If you're looking for great food, a warm atmosphere, and a fabulous staff, OSfizio is the place to visit. You won't be disappointed~ We can’t wait to go back!”
“All our parties and events done here as they know how to make it special. From food quality to service - as good as can get. Highly recommend”

“I recently hosted my mother's 80th Birthday celebration at Casa Verde Restaurant, and I must say, it was a truly exceptional experience. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious; every dish was fresh, hot, and bursting with flavor. The service was impeccable, with staff treating us like family throughout the day. Drinks and cocktails were plentiful and well-crafted. Casa Verde went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect for the occasion. If you're looking for a venue for your next party, Casa Verde is definitely the place to be. A big thank you to the owners and staff for making my mother's 80th birthday celebration truly unforgettable. Much love”
“We went there with my Mother-in-Law for Mother's Day and had an amazing time. The portions were great, food was delicious, and the service courteous and attentive. I definitely recommend eating in this restaurant.”
“We have been to Italianissimo several times for lunch. Service is always wonderful, friendly and attentive. The food is consistently delicious! Try the panino lunch specials! Highly recommend!!!”
“Very friendly and professional staff. Michelle, Phill and Eli were really great, they greeted us with a smile and were ready to answer any questions we had. Food was fresh and delicious. We had the lamb cholent combo and the Shawarma plate. Both were out of this world.”
““Outstanding dining experience! The steak was cooked perfectly—tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. The roasted potatoes and fresh vegetables were a great complement to the meal, and everything was beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. I highly recommend this place and will be coming back!””
“We had our wedding reception here on July 19th, 2025, and we absolutely loved working with them! It was the perfect place for us and they seriously exceeded our expectations. We met with Mike, and he helped us create the perfect party. Setting times to meet with him felt seamless and we felt well prepared after every meeting. He was always very real when he met with us—no extra gimmicks or tricks which honestly sold us even more. On top of that, their general staff, food quality, and overall assistance, were exceptional. They gave so much during the food tasting, so definitely come hungry. The meals weren’t even a main priority for us, but I need one of our friends to have a wedding there so I could have their food again. During my touchups, we were given the cutest room upstairs, where they also gave us our own plate before being able to talk to our guests during cocktail hour. We were told by a relative that we’d be well taken care of here, and that perfectly explains our experience with them. Throughout the entire night, we were simply able to just enjoy, thanks to the staff. They were incredibly kind, patient, and proficient, especially the maitre d. They’d additionally accommodate well to all of our guests, and even vendors. Our friends and family still rave about this venue. Please highly consider Old Bermuda Inn for your next event. We already can’t wait to work with them again in the future, and we thank them for going above and beyond for us!
They took care of the sweetheart table (and its decorations), table numbers, table menus, and we ordered our cake through them. As you can see, we had the best time!”
“Absolutely wonderful in every way! Delicious homemade food, incredible service and a beautiful room!! Will definitely be back!”
“We had dinner here for the first time and it was absolutely amazing from the minute we walked in . The restaurant and staff were welcoming . Christine was our server and was so nice and attentive . I can't wait to visit again.”
“We had such an amazing experience at The Rock House! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is incredible — everyone’s in a great mood, super friendly, and ready to have fun. We went for the Halloween party, and they absolutely nailed it. The band was fantastic, the music was excellent, and the whole place had this awesome ‘80s throwback feel — from the décor to the energy. The food came out fast, tasted great, and the prices were very reasonable. The Halloween-themed drinks were creative and fun, and the bar staff was quick, smiling, and clearly enjoying the night. The place was packed but still felt friendly and comfortable — we ended up meeting so many great people. You can tell The Rock House puts a lot of heart into what they do. Overall, this is a class act bar that knows how to throw a party. Beers are always cold, the food is consistently good, and the atmosphere is unbeatable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend checking it out — and whatever you do, make sure to try their candied bacon. It’s amazing!”
“Wow what an AMAZING place. Service and Food were both outstanding. We definitely will return again. Thank you Giacamo for everything.”

“What a lovely experience for a sitting breakfast in Staten Island.
Lots of food options from smothers to breakfasts sandwiches, wraps etc. many organic options.
Outdoor seating was great too.
The only thing is... It's quite pricey for a cafe in SI.

The staff are curious, personable, and present, never leaving an empty plate in front of you or a drink empty. Whether it is for a large party or an intimate meal, Osteria Santina is your place! Highly recommend and I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed!”

“BEST INDIAN FOOD ON THE ISLAND, Incredible late night dinner at Hylan Curry & Grill with my hunny 💖”
“This restaurant was AMAZING. We went Sat night, and could not have been treated more special. The owner, Kim, helped us with the menu, was totally delightful and you can truly tell she enjoys her customers and being there. I am going back .. soon. The atmosphere was delightful, you felt like you truly were in Germany. TOP service, the food is amazing ..a MUST DO on your list .. annually, if not more.”
“The customer service was excellent as soon as I entered the place.”
“Dinner with friends at DOUGH by Licastri in Silver Lake, Staten Island, highly touted for their pizza. Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed.
I ordered their version of a Sicilian sfincione, which is one of my top 3 pizzas to order. It’s a specialty pizza, not commonly found in most pizzerias.
My friends ordered regular dinner food, however, which looked fantastic - so if I go back, that’s what I’ll do.
It’s a fun lively atmosphere inside. The service was great.”
“Pizza, Beers always cold, Service always amazing and no one does it better than Jimmy, does so much for community and i love giving back to Jimmy!! everyone is treated like family !!”
“5 star fir everything! The flavors in every single item they sell is soo amazing. Everything is perfectly seasoned and perfectly portioned, evenly the homemade hummus and dip! The atmosphere is also so warm and friendly and the owner is super sweet! I love this place and I highly recommend it to any one looking for perfect flavor!”
“Thanks to a friend of ours, we found a nice spot for Mediterranean cuisine! The Sahara bread was amazing… Falafel was the best I ever had and the hummus was DELISH! Main dish, I had chicken gyro dish, it was exactly what I wanted. The service was very welcoming… give it a try if you like this type of cuisine.”
“Absolutely spectacular experience, a true taste of Albanian Traditional cuisine with the added ambiance of Albanian Music playing in the background! Enjoyed the red wine from Kosovo pairing with the succulent Ribe Eye Steak! Thank you Cafe Latte friends & staff for an incredible dinner!”

“This location is amazing! My daughter has special needs, and all of the staff are very friendly and helpful, but Adam went out of his way to make my daughter feel comfortable. He engaged her in conversation and made sure that her order was perfect. My daughter walked away feeling respected and seen. This is her new favorite place, and we will be visiting there often.”
“This is exactly what a classic pizza place should be. Family-run, welcoming, and built on genuine relationships, they take the time to know their customers—especially the regulars, who are greeted by name the moment they walk in. There is a level of care here that is becoming harder to find. They are always willing to accommodate a special request, even if it is not on the menu, and they do so with a smile rather than hesitation. The pizza is consistently excellent, but what truly sets this place apart is the full menu. The hot meals are just as impressive—fresh, satisfying, and clearly made with the same attention to detail. A dependable spot that delivers both quality food and a sense of community.”

“Great addition to the North shore. Place is upscale with nice atmosphere. . Nice Beer selection. IPA was very good. I had the Branzino and it was delicious, but It would of been nice if there was some bread on the table. Overall good experience and I will be returning.”
“Food was very good. Had Fajita Duo and Cheese Nachos. Prices were decent. Menu was limited. Problem was the flour pancakes were very small (Maybe 6" round (4) for the dinner we had. Six Tortillas would of been fine for that dinner. We asked for more and they gave us 3. Noticing the bill I WAS CHARGED for the 3 extra ($2.50)? That's Not Good Business. I have never been charged for a few extra tortillas. I will not go back or recommend. Disappointed. It was freezing in there.”

“The pizza crust is thin crust and crispy. Reminds me of the pizza from Grimaldi's and Patricia's at Dumbo Brooklyn. The seafood pasta is a bargain and the sauce was tasty. The eggplant tower appetizer was also very good. The atmosphere is laid back (they use paper plates) and the device was attentive.”
“Stopping at Shake Shack in Empire Outlets turned out to be a nice break while spending time around the Staten Island Ferry and the waterfront. The location is hard to beat, and after walking around the outlets it felt like a convenient place to sit down, relax, and grab a meal without having to go far.
The restaurant had a lively atmosphere with a steady flow of customers, but it still felt well organized. Even with people coming in and out, the staff kept things moving, and the dining area was clean and comfortable. I also liked that there was plenty of seating nearby, making it easy to enjoy the meal while taking in the energy of the area.
Ordering was simple, and my food was prepared in a reasonable amount of time. Everything arrived fresh and looked just as expected. The burger was juicy, the ingredients tasted fresh, and the fries were hot and crispy. It was the kind of meal that delivers exactly what you hope for when you stop at Shake Shack. The quality was consistent, and the portions were satisfying.
One thing I appreciated was that the employees remained friendly even during busy periods. They acknowledged customers, answered questions, and worked efficiently to keep orders moving. Good customer service always makes a difference, and it added to the overall experience.
The location itself is another reason I would return. Being inside Empire Outlets makes it a convenient stop before catching the ferry, after shopping, or while exploring the St. George neighborhood. If you are visiting Staten Island for the day, it is an easy place to include in your plans.
Like many popular locations, it can become crowded during lunch, weekends, and when ferry passengers arrive. Finding a table may require a little patience during those times, and there can be a short wait for food. Still, the staff handled the rush well, and the quality of the meal made the wait worthwhile.
Overall, I left with a positive impression. The food was fresh, the service was friendly, and the location makes it an enjoyable place to stop while visiting Empire Outlets. It is the kind of place where you know what to expect, and in this case, it delivered a satisfying meal in a welcoming environment. I would happily stop here again the next time I am in the area.”
“Visited a restaurant for the birthday party in May 2022. Clean, welcomed staff, good service, a lot of parking on the street. We placed an order. It was not too long, which is good because the reservation was for 6:30 pm and everybody was hungry. Appetizers were delicious especially both types of calmers. 3 people ordered NYS trip stakes. OMG! All 3 stakes were stingy. Nobody finished the stake. Medium and well done came up the same. Black color even tongue was black after eating the steak. It's because when cooked the steak did not clean the grail. Also, I recommend checking your receipt. We found 3 items that we did not get on the table for a total of almost $80. One of them we never ordered, and two newer ones were delivered to the table.”

“I went to an ice cream shop in Staten Island and it was absolutely excellent. The taste was really special, but what stood out even more was the person working there.
He is a Latino Spanish man, very polite, patient, and treats customers with great respect, kindness, and generosity. He has a wonderful personality and a really positive energy.
Honestly, if I ever go back to that place, it will be because of him as much as the ice cream itself. His attitude makes the experience even better.
I truly wish him all the best.”
“I keep coming back to Lion Dance because the drink specials are always so good. The dumplings are amazing too,perfect comfort food and always hit the spot.
Nina is also the best. She’s so friendly, enthusiastic, and always has great recommendations. You can tell she really cares about her customers and her business. Exactly the kind of small business owner you want to support!”

“Just got back from a thoroughly enjoyable meal at Shaw-naé’s House on Van Duzer. The sangria was plentiful, the food was fresh, hot and tasty, the wait staff attentive, and the ambience was perfecto (my wife sang to ALL the songs!). Too full for dessert, but I was eyeing that peach cobbler! Next time!”
