“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.”
“Excellent food, excellent service and excellent atmosphere. I promise if you try this place, you will be extremely satisfied and for sure you will go back again! This restaurant serves the best Italian food in Staten Island.”
“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 are frequent customers since I was a kid! My parents used to bring me and my siblings as kids and now I continue the tradition with my kids and Arirang has never changed always great service and food. All the staff and Managers are great especially Jose and Jesus!”

“The best Falafel and shawarma sandwiches out there! Everything served is fresh and great quality. It’s a small spot but truly a gem for middle eastern food. I wish they have one on the south shore of Staten Island, because I drive 30 minutes to get here. Totally worth it!”
“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.”
“si pranza divinamente con prodotti di qualità. Il proprietario è molto simpatico. lo consiglio.”

“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”
“One of my new favorite sushi places. The lunch specials are great. The specialty rolls are always buy 2 get the 3rd free. It's small inside to sit, and parking can be a little bit of a pain, but it's worth it. Looking forward to warm weather to sit outside when I go.”
“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”
“If you see hateful reviews written here within the last 24 hrs, it is pure POLITICAL. These people most likely haven't even stepped inside this restuarant. I am pretty sure if a Republican candidate asked to be hosted there, they would honor the same. Regardless, everyone is free to support whomever they want including the owners of this restuarant. Now let's get to the real facts! Excellent cuisine full of vegeterian options. The best Turkish I had thus far. I brought my coworkers here and they loved it. I would highly reccommend this place.”
“Food was delicious, service prompt and pleasant. Ambiance is fabulous”

“We went tonight, 1/11/23 after work at around 4:30 and we’re very pleased not only with our food, but our waitress was great! She listened to everything we wanted and we got everything exactly how we wanted it….she was very good! Thank you to Martha for excellent service…..👍”
“The owner is such a great person. And his children are also good-hearted people. Very convenient store with many items. The store also stays open late night. Which makes it the go to deli if you live close.”
“Food is good..service is good.they dont take the food card some lady was getting milk n stuff for her 3 kids they didnt take it she said she couldnt walk to another store it was only 19.00 i paid for her. They should take everything thwy make enough money in that store otherwise i go there alot”
“Shop Smart is an amazing neighborhood store. The staff is friendly, the place is always clean, and the food is consistently fresh. Their hot Italian bread and homemade fresh mozzarella are honestly some of the best you’ll find anywhere. They also do incredible catering — everything arrives fresh, well-prepared, and delicious. It’s great having a place you can rely on for both everyday shopping and big family events. Highly recommend!”
“Cracker Barrel Deli was a great stop. The food was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The service was warm and attentive, even during a busy time, and the atmosphere felt cozy and welcoming. Everything came together for a really enjoyable visit. I’d definitely come back again.”
“No issues here. Had a nice big ham and cheese sandwich. Fresh rolls and great meat. Need a place like this in my home town. Definitely will stop by when I'm in the area. Thanks for the quick lunch.”
“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.”
“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!”

“Lee’s Tavern is a staple on Staten Island, and for good reason. The pizzas are among the crown jewels of Staten Island, and the bar itself is just a classic, cozy, hole in the wall kind of place.
We had fried calamari, an Italian shredded pork hero, a white clam pie, and a regular pie (half with sweet peppers). The calamari was great. It was fried perfectly and the hot marinara sauce was really good with a nice kick. The pork hero was very basic, and though it lacked a bit in flavor, the ingredients all tasted very fresh and the cheese was melted very nicely, I enjoyed it quite a bit. The pies at Lee’s speak for themselves. The white clam pie is delicious, it’s a perfect balance of garlic, cheese, and that classic Italian clam taste. The regular pie is also just so fundamentally perfect. It’s crisp, thin, and the sauce is perfect.
The service at Lee’s is also exceptional with extremely friendly staff. My only complaint would be that Lee’s is cash only, though they do have an ATM inside. The pizza more than makes up for the cash only rule though.”

“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!”
“food was amazing staff and our waiter was the best great atmosphere definitely will be back that veal chop melted in my mouth 😋”
“You will never be let down by the food or services. You get what you pay for and will not go home hungry. I go a few times a year mainly special events of my family.”

“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’ve went here before a couple times and the coffee and staff is always the sweetest. But today me and my coworkers ordered delivery but we work in the north shore completely on the other side of the island and the drinks and pastries still came out amazing. Weren’t watery at all and for the signature drinks I think the price range is pretty good! Also gave us a stamp card for the amount of drinks we ordered. Very nice”
“Absolutely the best Italian restaurant in NY. I'm extremely picky and very critical. so many places through the years came and went but Ninos was always on point. and the people from bus boys to owner are always perfect. make u feel like u are family”

“AMAZINGLY gorgeous space that offers such a wonderful menu, atmosphere and vibe!!! The food was excellent…the presentation spectacular and how they manage to highlight every single detail of the experience leaving no stone (or oyster) unturned amazed us!!! We can’t wait to go back!!! BRAVO!!!!!”
“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!”
“Place has a cool vibe with plenty of seats and fun staff …really good bar food and live entertainment with dj’s and bands! Don’t listen to negative reviews from local competitors this place ROCKS THE HOUSE!!!!”

“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.”
“Had a really great experience at this sushi spot! The sushi and sashimi were very fresh and absolutely delicious — you can really taste the quality.
It’s a nice little café with a cozy atmosphere, and the staff is very polite and friendly, which makes the whole experience even better.
The beef bento box was very good — flavorful, well-prepared, and satisfying. The presentation was also beautiful; even the service plates were very nice and thoughtfully arranged.
Definitely a lovely place for fresh sushi and a relaxed dining experience. Would happily come back!”
“Authentic, delicious Mexican food. We came for lunch and both had tacos which were incredible. Felt like I was in Mexico City. Very good in house chips and salsa verde. Their hot sauce is incredible too. Our waitress was super friendly and put up with my very poor Spanish lol. I will definitely be back.”
“Whether it's their mini bagels, an egg sandwich, iced coffee, or pastries baked in-house - everything is delicious. Bagels & Buns is the type of local business we should all be supporting in the community; during these hard times especially. Service with a smile at all times and all employees do their best to accommodate all customers. See ya there Sunday mornings!”
“sushi wen is the best sushi place in nyc i am convinced i come here all the time on my lunch break it’s always super quick and always super delicious i get the bagel roll and shrimp tempura roll and every time its great! i’ll always be back”
“One of my new favorite sushi places. The lunch specials are great. The specialty rolls are always buy 2 get the 3rd free. It's small inside to sit, and parking can be a little bit of a pain, but it's worth it. Looking forward to warm weather to sit outside when I go.”
“Great food, nice ambiance, professional waitress, this place deserves all five stars ⭐️”
“First time visiting tonight! The dining experience was great and the food is delicious! The service was very friendly! I'd definitely go again and recommend to anyone in search of a good Italian restaurant! :)”

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”
“Everything was great at even greater prices for the quality of food and service you receive here”
“Lovely dinner with the family got some sushi rolls and love their good portions of Robata-yaki !! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND . Server is always looking out for us which makes us happy and ready to be full!!!”
“We had Kaitlyn as out waitress and she was amazing. So friendly and one of the fastest waitresses we ever had. She made our dinner a great experience. That girl deserves a raise.”
“"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!”
“The Crumbl app is very good and super helpful for checking the weekly cookie menu, placing orders, and seeing what’s new. Everything loads fast and it’s easy to use. The only thing I’d warn people about is if you plan to pay in cash — make sure you bring at least $10. Sometimes the in-app price doesn’t match exactly when you get to the store, so you might need a little extra. Besides that, it’s a great app and makes ordering Crumbl a lot easier.”
“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.”
“Picked up food at Muzi for the first time and was really impressed by how fresh the sushi was and even got a kitchen app (beef negamaki) that was likewise fresh and tasty - too often sushi places that also have kitchen food have meat that isn't the freshest but that wasn't the case at Muzi. Order was ready in very reasonable time (2 sushi chefs were working), service was friendly and they even have a few comfortable booths and tables for folks that want to eat there. Highly recommend. Parking is decent in the lot at that strip mall but watch out for the potholes :-)”
“I love this place they are so delicious but I had a painful experience when the churro filling got onto my hands now they are very red but it’s ok they were really good. I would definitely get the churros again but maybe use a fork to eat them so they don’t burn my hands.
I also feel like the music is too loud. I don’t have sensory issues, but the volume of that music is making me rethink some things.
Keep up the great work hobrah’s. I’ll be back for my churros with a fork next time.
(As you can see the food was so good I took it to go, but my fingers are red from the burn)”
“I have always loved Bella Mamas,, and now it's has gotten even better, with the grilled pizzas , the new menu, the portion are huge and you are definitely taking left overs. very inviting atmosphere.”
“Had dinner for a retirement get together. I walked in and they were very busy and packed. I’ve lived on SI for years and this was my first time. Told the gentlemen I was meeting a party, he said go straight to the back. It would I have been a nice touch to be escorted there.
We were 13 and decided to do
appetizers family style. We shared the Mozzarella en Carozza, Eggplant Rollatini, and Fried Calamari. They were good. I personally liked the eggplant the best.
We all ordered our own dinner. I opted for the Red Snapper Livornese. It was really good. I also got a taste of the Veal Sorrento which was a table favorite as well.
It was a good experience. I will go back.”
“I have been eating here for a few years now and the food and service are always fantastic. Today I ordered for delivery for the first time and I couldn’t be happier with my order. Some places definitely give you less food when you have your food delivered but Cole’s sends the same huge portions you get when dining in and it is just as delicious. If you haven’t been yet you are missing out.”
“Just had a magnificent dinner at La Bottiglia! It was our anniversary and we wanted to enjoy a great dinner at a restaurant with great ambience and a quiet and cozy atmosphere. From the delicious hot antipasto to start our meal along with a delicious house wine and amazing cosmopolitan we knew we were in the right place to celebrate a momentous occasion. The hot antipasto was so delicious and plentiful along with warm, fresh bread and focaccia to spread the homemade caponata on. Off to a great start! We were now full! The chicken parmigiana that my husband ordered was great according to him, and he is a harsh food critic! My salmon Dijon with mixed vegetables was so good!! I order it every time I come here as it is so very delicious! The desserts are amazing! The cannolis are so good. Double espressos are so rich and satisfying! To top off the great meal is the hospitality of the entire restaurant staff. They are so professional and efficient with such a warm and welcoming attitude! I can’t say enough good things about La Bottiglia! You have to come and try it for yourself! You will be very pleased, I’m sure!”
“Cast Iron Pot Staten Island is a great all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurant. The staff is always so friendly and attentive. The quality of meat and ingredients is great. My mom and I always have a good time when we visit.”
“Atmosphere is great ! Service is excellent!! Food is delicious!!! It’s an all around great place to eat with friends , family , etc.”
“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”
“My husband and I recently had our wedding here and our experience here has always been pleasant.All the employees were very helpful, kind and professional. The managers were very honest and we appreciated them so much. Special thanks to Stephania for running the show and Tara for taking care of me the whole night. I could not have asked for a better venue. Small mishaps did not matter because the staff was on it and had several backup plans. They made my wedding day amazing ♥️.”
“Love the cookies always fresh!!!! I’ve had Crumbl at other locations and hands down this location has it down. The semi sweet chocolate reminds me of homemade and now just tried the apple strudel cinnamon one - delicious.”
“This place truly exceeded expectations. The kosher meat was exceptional—juicy, tender, and seasoned perfectly. You can tell they really care about quality and consistency. The staff was friendly and professional, and the overall vibe was inviting and comfortable. It’s not easy to find a kosher meat restaurant that checks all the boxes, but this one absolutely does. Highly recommended!”
“We had a beautiful ladies luncheon at the restaurant and the food, service & ambiance was above & beyond.... Truly a gem !!!!!!! Thank you”
“Hosted my husbands birthday party in their private party room this weekend and I must say this restaurant was fantastic!!! The service was awesome and the food and drinks were on point! I highly recommend Boccelli!”

“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.”

“Allison was wonderful. This is our second time having her as our waitress. Our three year old son remembered her because she acted out sesame street voices for him last time lol! She has a great personality and is very attentive to us ! we highly recommend asking for her.”
“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 !”
“We had our daughter's surprise graduation party at Max's Esca last night. Every single thing was outstanding- from the atmosphere, to the service, the drinks and the food. They created a beautiful, private space in the main dining room for us to decorate. Christina and Chrissy (& the rest of the staff!) took excellent care of everyone, and Nicole's cocktails were spot on. The food was incredible, as usual! Highly recommend!”
“Absolutely wonderful in every way! Delicious homemade food, incredible service and a beautiful room!! Will definitely be back!”
“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!”
“Shrimp Po Boy was great-best I had in years. The baked beans and biscuit also great. Had them delivered-came fast and warm.”
“We had a wonderful family dinner at Lava. The food was excellent and the service was outstanding!! We can’t wait to return!”
“We’ve been going here for years. Never had a bad experience. Everything is super fresh and mostly home made. Everyone including staff is super nice. There mostly all family and always have a big smile including Umberto!!! Thanks again the ice cream you selected was great!!! Happy New Year everyone!!!”
“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.”
“Excellent food, dessert, ambience and of course, service! Suleyman C was our server, kudos to the Opera Cafe Lounge, whatever management is doing, it’s working, we felt warm and welcomed and will definitely be back!!”
“Upon answering I was greeted and seated. The appetizers which were the nacho chips tasted freshly made and the chicken and steak tacos were delicious. I also had the Elote corn which was so good comes with three.. and I love the piña colada but I had it without alcohol.. they do have an open bar. Def would go back.”
“Raised in port richmond also Deninos,mugs away, Real Madrid Theresa & Mimmos….”
“Last night I ate there for about the 10th time. The food is fantastic. It is one of top three restaurants that I go to on Staten Island. Service is great, and the manager keeps coming around to see if everything is going well. I am sorry that the weather will be cooling off because the outside dining is beyond belief with lighting and tree buffers so that you do not feel that you are right next to Victory Boulevard. Some may consider the prices to be a tad high, but you get what you pay for. Diners are more economical, but the slightly extra cost will be well worth the price.”
“Marvelous delightful way to celebrate Easter Sunday with family and friends.💕”
“Ordered mozzerella sticks and pizza for lunch, for the kids and I; this afternoon. The order arrived very quickly, was hot, and delicious! Pizza tastes like the pies made in Italy! So very good! Support this establishment; everything about this place is great! Mangia!!!”
“My first time was really awesome food and service was terrific, our 2nd time to eat here last night 03-13-2026 oh geez it was awful. The place was packed of huge ppl long table loud conversations wherein these guests are in the same dining area wherein the regular guests like us that wants to relax enjoy our food and least pleasant just to hear normal conversations, but due to these 3 parties of long tables loud guests it made our 2nd time horrible we couldn’t even hear the waitress when she was taking notes for our orders, we were sitting there waiting for our entree’s to be serve took a long time until i asked the girl why is our good taking longtime to be served? We been sitting for 90 minutes when entrees was served idk what was going on last night we came in at 6.30pm waited 20mins for a waitress come over we left the place like 10pm when entrees was served we don’t have the appetite anymore i don’t think we will be going back service wasn’t all that to please guests like us and many more to come back and be regulars”
Latest Reviews
“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.”
“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!”

“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.”
“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.”

“Dinner at Shake Shack was fantastic! The steak was absolutely top-notch—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. charm of the place. Service was efficient, and every dish we tried—from the appetizers to the dessert—was spot-on. A nice-visit for anyone who appreciates a great steak experience. Would happily return!”
“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.”
“The best Falafel and shawarma sandwiches out there! Everything served is fresh and great quality. It’s a small spot but truly a gem for middle eastern food. I wish they have one on the south shore of Staten Island, because I drive 30 minutes to get here. Totally worth it!”
“Sometimes, you don’t need a trendy hotspot—you just need a place where the coffee is hot, the portions are generous, and breakfast is served all day. That’s exactly what I was looking for during a recent visit to IHOP.
Walking in, there’s an immediate sense of familiarity. IHOP has that comforting, no-frills atmosphere where families, friends, and solo diners all feel at home. It’s dependable—and sometimes, that’s exactly what you want.
I went with the classics: pancakes, eggs, and a side of bacon. The pancakes were the highlight—light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, soaking up syrup just right without falling apart. The eggs were cooked well, and the bacon struck that nice balance between crispy and tender.
Coffee, as always, played an important role. It was rich, warm, and exactly what you expect from a classic breakfast spot, with refills keeping the table going.
Service, however, was a bit of a different story. Visiting on Palm Sunday, the restaurant was noticeably busier than usual, which seemed to impact the overall experience. While the staff remained polite, service was slower and less attentive than one might hope. It’s understandable given the holiday crowd, but it did take away slightly from an otherwise enjoyable meal.
What stands out most about IHOP is its consistency. It doesn’t try to reinvent breakfast—it simply delivers it. Even on a busy holiday, the food held its standard, which says a lot.
IHOP may not be a culinary revelation, but it remains a reliable go-to for comfort food and familiar flavors—just perhaps not at peak holiday hours.

“Absolutely amazing dining experience. Nina was accommodating, friendly, and an absolutely delight to visit with while I waited for my food to be prepared. She knew every menu item and made great recommendations.
Food was hot, fresh, and has phenomenal flavor!
I traveled across the country to Staten Island for work but would come back just for another meal here at Lion Dance!”
“The Crumbl app is very good and super helpful for checking the weekly cookie menu, placing orders, and seeing what’s new. Everything loads fast and it’s easy to use. The only thing I’d warn people about is if you plan to pay in cash — make sure you bring at least $10. Sometimes the in-app price doesn’t match exactly when you get to the store, so you might need a little extra. Besides that, it’s a great app and makes ordering Crumbl a lot easier.”
“Picked up food at Muzi for the first time and was really impressed by how fresh the sushi was and even got a kitchen app (beef negamaki) that was likewise fresh and tasty - too often sushi places that also have kitchen food have meat that isn't the freshest but that wasn't the case at Muzi. Order was ready in very reasonable time (2 sushi chefs were working), service was friendly and they even have a few comfortable booths and tables for folks that want to eat there. Highly recommend. Parking is decent in the lot at that strip mall but watch out for the potholes :-)”
“the food was amazing as always but the cashier kept loudly talking about how his job is boring, that there’s nobody to serve and i know how annoying food service is from experience but it made me uncomfortable to hear him complaining so vocally about it while serving us, like at least wait till we’re gone dude 😭”
“***BEST AUTHENTIC MEXICAN RESTAURANT STATEN ISLAND*** My Mexican fiancé moved from California here & after many trials we finally found the best! Reasons why:
1. IMMEDIATELY brought chips & salsa to the table (delicious)
2. You could hear the fajitas before they arrived from the sizzling!!
3. The tortillas were homemade!!
He described the atmosphere as traditional, like being in his abuelita's home :) We will definitely be coming back!”
“We visited Staten Island for the day from Pennsylvania, and were looking for a dessert spot after eating lunch and found Yallah Habibi Desserts on Apple Maps.
We chose to come here just based off the name of the establishment and the photos of the menu. We’ve never seen desserts like this and decided to give it a try.
The gentlemen working there explained the desserts were Syrian Cuisine and explained each of the options. We chose to get the Mixed Fruit Koshari, which is a rice pudding based dessert, it was so fresh, light, and flavorful! Best dessert I could say I’ve had in a long time!
Thank you Yallah Habibi for your passion in your service and the love you put into your desserts! Definitely stopping back again on our next visit!”
“I am a regular at Seabass Taverna! I love the atmosphere, the employees are so nice, the food and drink are amazing. I highly recommend.”
