Amazing food and fantastic service, with lively music on the weekends. I highly recommend Chinar On The Island to anybody looking for a Mediterranean/Russian style cuisine on the local Staten Island or Tri-State area!!

We celebrated with them on Tuesday evening. We were alone. Plenty of space, nice atmosphere.We ordered a lot of appetizers, but only the main course for the child.My daughter was hungry until we finished with the appetizers... we had to ask the waiter to bring food for her quickly.Cork fee $10 per unit if you had it with you;))Everything except the salmon shish kebab was delicious.Tried half the appetizers and 7 main courses.

I came all the way from London to visit Chinar! I had the best experience at this restaurant. The staff at Chinar are friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to assist and make your experience special. The restaurant's attention to detail extends to its elegant decor, creating a pleasant ambience for any occasion. My favourite meal was the lamb chops, alongside the potatoes! Their food goes above and beyond any restaurant I have been to before. Couldn't recommend enough!

Last week we had my husband anniversary celebration in Chinar restaurant. The food was delicious, and the presentation was great. We had a wonderful time with our friends and family.The management and staff were friendly, and the services were great. The food tasted great, and the presentation was awesome. All together, the ambiance, the service, the quality of food, the music, the saxophone player, and the singer made our celebration special and unforgettable. We are truly grateful.

The food didnt impress. Selection and quality not as good as was years ago. Music too loud for the room where ppl came to talk and enjoy friends company.
Have been going here since I was young. Have seen this place under new management multiple times. Never has the service been this good. Food is delicious and service is amazing. Since under new management have had 3 parties here and wouldn’t have them anywhere else. Definitely would recommend. Btw GET THE TUNA TAR TAR, absolutely delicious!!!
