“I have to leave a review because not only is the owner so sweet and welcoming, but the food is outstanding! We tried the egg rolls, bulgogi, kimbap and several side dishes. This is our new go to banchan & kimbap place. High quality ingredients!“
“My wife's German grandma loves this place, and often treats us to the family style special. The food is good (certainly the best BBQ you can get in NYC) and the service is always excellent. It does tend to get busy and loud, sometimes louder than is comfortable, but it's always a good time. We went once for lunch, and since it wasn't as busy, that was the best experience we had there. Prices are pretty good, especially for Manhattan. Always have a great time here and love to get good BBQ even this far north!Kid-friendliness: A bit loud for kids, but they put out a coloring page with crayons. There are a few racy pictures on the wall, but they're high up in the corner and my 4 year old didn't notice. She's too focused on the excellent mac and cheese“

“The ingredients matter. Chef Guo uses the best organic & fresh ingredients to cook them to their best natural flavor. I love the magic he does with these ingredients. The presentation and restaurant decor just put his cuisine to the next level! Highly recommend this place to folks who appreciate nature, organic and yummy food and fine cooking skills.“
“If you live in Northern NJ and have not been to The Venetian you are truly missing out! The Venetian is one of the top wedding venues in New Jersey and they make that very well known! With their amazing staff ready to help you with everything to their top level food you will not have a bad time!As a wedding photographer one of the worst things that can happen is going to a wedding venue where there are no photographic opportunities especially when it is raining outside! Thankfully the venetian is filled with wall to wall beauty that if it is raining you will still end up with amazing photos (see photos i have taken attached to this review).I HIGHLY recommend this wedding venue, you will not be disappointed!“
“My sister and I went to Urban Vegan Kitchen for the first time this week. We both absolutely loved it. The food, the service, the vibe…all great. I had the “chicken” and waffles and my sister had an empanada and chips, salsa and guacamole. All delicious. Can’t wait to go back and try everything on the menu.“
“We were a group of 25 with a preset menu of 4 selections. The service was very friendly, the meals were delicious and service was great. We had a birthday to celebrate and you joined us in song and music. Thank you for a memorable lunch with our visitors from Israel.“
“I went here with my friends on a Friday night around 10, and there was no line, so ordering was very quick, and the worker had prepped most items, so you received your order immediately, and she was very nice. I had the Tequila Sunrise. It was $18 and was very good as far as sorbet goes. There wasn't much liquor to it. You could taste the white wine in the strawberry sorbet a bit, but the mango just tasted like standard mango sorbet. My friends had a scoop of the hazlenut coffee flavor, and it was very good, but not much liquor flavor either. If you're a big liquor person, you might be a bit underwhelmed. Nonetheless, for the amount of sorbet/ice cream you get in the cup, along with the toppings it comes with and the glass, the $18 is fair, in my opinion and I would go back to try other flavors/creations.“
“If you're searching for a culinary haven that combines traditional Italian flavors with a modern twist, look no further than this Pizzeria. Nestled in the heart of downtown, this gem of a pizza joint delivers a dining experience that's nothing short of exceptional. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the inviting aroma of freshly baked dough and savory toppings. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between cozy and vibrant, making it ideal for intimate dinners or lively gatherings with friends and family.“
“It’s casual but polished casual.$5.25/ Freddo Cappuccino. It was very good. This was the item I was most impressed with at Pi Bakerie, over and above the pastries and baked dishes. If I come back to Pi Bakerie it will be specifically for the Freddo Cappuccino. I could envision myself deliberately making a detour via SoHo for this Freddo Cappuccino. Which is pretty cool that means they have a “destination item” on their menu.I’d be curious to compare with Café Lyria who also make reportedly excellent Greek Freddo Cappuccino (this is like the Italian Schakerato).Also curious to try their Peinirli (“cheese boat”). Looked delicious.“
“Fallier Foods is absolutely amazing!! From the moment I started communicating with Sharon, she was awesome, very patient, kind and extremely professional. She treated me like I was a l I ng standing clients and she delivered the food, 37 minutes earlier than the discussed time, which was amazing. She came in set up and was out of the way after her instructions. And all of our wedding guest were in awe of the presentation and the flavors of all the food. The guest were raving about it, there was plenty left over and I thought they were going to fight over who got the last bite, it was so delicious. I will always use FALLIER FOOD for my future events.“
“I recently attended my neice's Shabbas Shevah Brachos and Heimish was the caterer for the all the meals.All the food served was fresh and delicious with a homemade feel. The chicken soup served Friday night was absolutely superb and above expectations when being served from a commercial kitchen! It was hearty and hot along with the matzah balls and noodles!For all three meals (Friday night, Shabbas lunch and Shalesh Suedes) the courses were plated nicely.We have a number of family members that required strict gluten free options which was met absolutely beyond expectations! Everything was clearly labeled and kept clean away from any cross contamination and indeed no one walked away with any reactions!I absolutely reccomend Heimish for any and all types of simchas for your catering needs!“
“Had the Linguine Nere con Gamberi, Calamari e Pomodoro i.e., squid ink linguine with shrimp, squid and tomato, and the Insalata di Finocchi Mele Rosse Pinoli Ricotta Salata, i.e., Fennel salad with red apple, pine nuts & ricotta cheese.Both were pleasant. Relative to the salad, the pasta was more delicious. The sauce was delightful -- I wished I had had the bread with the sauce!! I had taken the bread out first and set them aside and forgot about them until I finished the pasta.The bread was a generous portion, and was well baked and I could enjoy it on its own.“
“I only discovered Little Grocery recently and I am in love! All of the sandwiches I've ordered so far are amazing, with Thanksgiving on a Roll being my fav so far. The people working there are super sweet. Overall, hands down one of my favorite lunch spots!“
“After visiting the Museum of Moving Image in Astoria we walked up the block and had a nice lunch at Pig Beach BBQ. My husband and I split the sampler platter which we both enjoyed. My favorite was the pulled pork and my husband’s favorite was the ribs.We were both surprised that it was more of a cafeteria style set up instead of sit down. To me that was probably the only drawback. But it was a very laid back casual atmosphere which a lot of people may find appealing.“
“Ate here twice last weekend. We are hooked! The pork and vegetarian spring rolls are great, the pork and chicken entrees are scrumptious and the baked goods / desserts are outstanding. I can't wait to try the eggplant entee and dishes which come with garlic rice. Extra kudos for the staff. Service was amazing. Our new favorite restaurant“
“We contacted Dish on short notice to help us with a reception we were hosting and they provided exceptional service and food. The Event Director and Producer provided great guidance in our food selections, handled all of the details seamlessly, and were even able to secure a permit on our behalf. All of the reception attendees commented on how great the food was. Highly recommended for corporate events.“
“Lovely chocolates here :) I had ordered them online for gifts and went to pick them up, and ended up getting another box after I tried two of their samples -- they were that good! The owner is very friendly and kind as well. I picked up the chocolates on a rainy day, and he put the chocolates in two bags and put tape over them so that they don't get ruined by the rain. That was really nice of him to consider and do!“
“I’m coming here for its handmade tofu but honestly that was the most disappointing dish we ordered. The tofu was very dense and firm, can’t really tell the difference between the three flavors. The other dishes are surprisingly good, especially love the bossam!“
“Our company held a 2 day conference and we ordered catering for breakfast for 1 day and lunch for 2 days. Everything was great! The food was very tasty and flavorful. There was a lot of food that served everyone and a variety of options. Delivery was on time and communication was very professional. I would definitely recommend Gotham Catering for your catering needs. This will be the go to catering for future events.“

“Thank you so much to the chefs and staff of Food Trends for a really delicious luncheon for the staff and faculty at our professional school yesterday, a party of 80+. We did a "themed menu" and the chicken, fish, and vegetables were all delicious. So often the vegetable dishes and sides are afterthoughts but the beans and potatoes were scrumptious and perfectly cooked. I appreciated that they brought cards that identified the food items and indicated if the food was vegan, gluten free, etc. (most caterers haven't done that in my experience). The staff who dropped off the food were prompt and friendly. And Kelly, rep from the catering team who assisted me with the order, was helpful and responsive. All around I had an exceptional experience with Food Trends.“

“Jeffrey and his team were exceptional. They arrived right on time and hit the ground running. The food was delicious; dishes were well executed. They were courteous and took great care of our guests. They thought of all the little details and the kitchen was left spotless. We will definitely use them again.“
“Being a second shooter at Karen and Brandon's wedding at Terrace on the Park was an absolute delight and privilege. From start to finish, it was evident that their day was going to be nothing short of spectacular.Terrace on the Park provided a stunning backdrop for Karen and Brandon's celebration of love. The panoramic views of the city skyline and the lush greenery of the surrounding park created an enchanting setting that perfectly complemented the couple's joyous occasion.As a second shooter, I had the opportunity to witness the magic of Karen and Brandon's love story unfold from a unique perspective. From the tender moments during their ceremony to the exuberant laughter shared during their reception, every moment was filled with genuine emotion and pure happiness.Working alongside the primary photographer, I was able to capture a diverse range of shots that truly encapsulated the essence of Karen and Brandon's special day. From candid moments to artistic portraits, each photograph served as a timeless memento of their love and commitment to one another.To Karen and Brandon, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day. Your love for each other is truly inspiring, and it was an honor to help capture the beauty and joy of your celebration.To Terrace on the Park, thank you for providing such a magnificent venue for Karen and Brandon's wedding.

“The service at this restaurant is amazing! Nadia and her staff went above and beyond to ensure a truly memorable experience. From the appetizers to the numerous main courses, the food was fresh, uniquly presented, and most importantly, DELICIOUS. Nadia went the extra mile to ensure that all our guests left in jubilation and in awe. Everything was carefully thought off, and it all played out without any hiccup. Thank you very much, Nadia. You are our"to go" place now!“
“Walked in randomly on a Friday and got the toro special. It was a decent price for toro and it was well presented + quickly served. It wasn't too flavorful since the rice wasn't that seasoned. I relied heavily on the soy sauce and wasabi instead and it was a decent experience. It was a lot smaller than it looks though. I don't generally eat much as I'm a small person but I was easily able to finish the roll + handroll and still wanted more food. Overall I would go back and try other things there. Also saw another reviewer mention that they had soup with the lunch special but I didn't get any soup and it doesn't seem to mention soup being included on the lunch special menu. Just FYI“
“What’s the Kitch? Catered my husband’s 75th birthday party for 24 people in our apartment in Manhattan. From my initial contact right through til the end of the party, I knew this was the caterer for us. Jeffrey and his assistant were extremely professional. I loved his “if you want it, we can make it happen” approach. We had a wonderful selection of light bites that were all outstanding. They were prepared and served (and cleaned up!) right at home, making it a very intimate and fun evening. We were so impressed that we have already booked him for our holiday party in December. Five stars all the way!“
“Eastwood Manor has the Absolute Most FABULOUS Mother's Day Brunch I have ever been to. There is so much food to choose from and the drinks are included. I have been coming here for events for over 30 years. Eastwood Manor just gets better and better.“
“This is the only place in the entire city that I would recommend people go to if they want an authentic New York pizza experience. The slices are massive (take-up-an-entire-plate HUGE), the sauce is zippy and flavourful, and the pepperoni is to die for. I would personally recommend a slice of the pepperoni and bacon, or the Sicilian deep dish. The workers are all very nice and service was quick and efficient. They also have a nice selection of cold drinks to get with your pizza. The joint was right across the street from our hotel so it was very convenient for us to grab a couple slices whenever we wanted. The best bonus is that the place is open late, which meant that we were able to get pizza at about 12:30 at night after catching Billy Joel at MSG. Overall, this is a fantastic pizza place and I would highly recommend it.“
“I've used Chris now for three events and have nothing but remarkable things to say about the guy. He's easily the single most professional, efficient and all around best caterer/chef I've ever com across. From planning an intimate 20 person get together to a 4 hour, 150 person rooftop carnival, Chris can take a 30 second conversation and turn it into something beyond your wildest dreams. The man is an absolute legend and the only caterer in NYC you need to consider using. He's sharp as a tack and has a staff unlike any other ready and will to help in any and every way necessary.“
“This place is very nice but very small. There is one bathroom for everyone and the lights there are very dim. It looks larger on the pictures than reality. We enjoyed our avocado rolls and dumplings on the patio. It is a very limited menu for food and drinks. The positive is that it is very cute and they have a train caboose that you can also dine in on the street.“
“We used Thomas Oliver's Catering for a private event and everyone enjoyed the food. Gary was very easy to work with and flexible with any changes for dietary preferences. He was communicative throughout the entire process and his staff were pleasant and professional. We enjoyed working with them and would recommend it to anyone! Portions sizes were great - great value for money. Thank you!“
“Shortrounds catered my sister’s bridal shower brunch. All the food was delivered hot and everything that went with the food was supplied right down to the syrup! I would highly recommend Shortrounds for your catering needs. Dan and Jen were quick to reply and very easy to work with!“
“Igor and his team were beyond exceptional!! From the staff to the custom drinks to the beautiful presentation of passed small bites. He was so attentive leading up to our event and was willing to make last minute changes that our client had requested. Highly recommend and will definitely be using him again.“
“Our favorite place for dinner!!! Ate there three times in four days! The plates and bowls were incredible. Shrimp. Chicken. Avocado. Coconut rice. And the sweet plantains!!! Nicest hostess ever — Catalina is a ray of sunshine! Makes us sad to return to Indiana.“
“Rarely do I feel compelled to leave a review, but I came into this store recently and received outstanding service. Melinda was so kind and cheerful - it really made my day. It’s rare to have such an encounter and she was truly a gem that made me want to become a regular. Not to mention the smoothie was delicious and the store extremely clean.“

“My friend and I had wonderful dinner at Na RATH Thai restaurant. We shared everything as Thai family styleDecoration is colorful, vibrant flowers and bustling. Surprisingly the ambient sound wasn't to loudDelish, authentic and flavorful Thai food. You can't go wrong with Thai food at this restaurant. Also, I love all decorative and garnishes all dishes with flowers. So creative and beautiful !The service was friendly, had excellent service minded and fastOverall everything we ordered was great. We finished the dinner with a piece of coconut chiffon cake and a piece green tea crape cakeI would suggest anyone when people ask me a good Thai restaurant in Queens“
“Darbar is an absolute gem. Food is fantastic & incredibly authentic (not to mention the best prices for indian food in NYC!) Do yourself a favor and get the Chicken 65 — be warned, it is a (spicy) explosion of flavor on your tastebuds. The classics like vindaloo & tikka go hardddd and “lesser known” dishes (ie by the white americans ;) ) like balchao, chana saag, etc. are wondrous. Service is kind, attentive, and very helpful. Truly cannot beat this place for date night, friends/family dinner, work gathering (private room upstairs too!), or even a solo experience.“
“Our Christmas Eve was a huge success thanks to them. Their Chicken Francaise was perfect along with delicious Cavatelli & Broccoli. Enormous portions. And their subs by the foot were the best. Everyone raved about them. Highly recommend“
“I am so in love with Ikon Caterers. First off, this food will bring you pure ecstasy. It is amazing, its one of a kind in the bronx. I love the rasta pasta, oxtail and oxtail fried rice, absolutelydelicious. The jerk lamb chops with the truffle mash potatoes will have you obsessed. When I bought that I had to return the next day to dine and get it again. I love Chef Leon, he is one of the best in New York. You can literally taste the love he put in the food. Not to mention the staff is amazing“
“Just had my bridal shower there and loved it. Jodi was very accommodating and Olga and her sister did above and beyond for the service. The food was really good and they helped me carry all my stuff up to my car. Very cute place to do it in!“
“What’s Cookin is an excellent restaurant. Friendly service, great food and very fair prices. It is a family environment. I have ordered three catering meals from there as well and the food comes hot and ready to serve. I would highly recommend.“
“We recently had our wedding catered by Pheasant and they are truly the absolute best. Lola and Cat were wonderful during the entire planning process - so communicative, easy to talk to, and thoughtful with all their ideas. They helped us with planning our menu, handled all our rentals for furniture, linens, and serve wear, and worked with our planner to create a timeline for cocktails and dinner that flowed perfectly. We were blown away on wedding day - our tables turned out so beautiful and everything that was served was absolutely delicious. We even had many guests tell us it was the best wedding food they've had! We loved that everything was served family style and featured gorgeous, in-season produce. We are so thrilled with our experience with Pheasant and cannot recommend them enough!“
“According to my friend who lives here, Greek is the way to go when you're in astoria. So we ordered some gyros and other delicious bites from Frankys and I was not disappointed. I got the beef suvlaki plate and omg the meat was so flavorful and freshly grilled you could still taste the smoke from the fire. The white sauce was great and veggies were fresh. I'd definitely make this spot a regular stop if I lived here“
“Amazing ! Amazing ! Amazing! Had a birthday celebration here and everything was good. Food,service and atmosphere all 5 stars. I will be returning here for many years to come ! Portions of food are large so make sure you ask questions before ordering ! Caesar salad was very good. The garlic bread with cheese also good. Chicken parm amazing !!! The lasagna was the best lasagna i ever had !!! Try this place out trust me you will not regret it !“
“my friends and I had lunch here today, 4/17, and we're out on search for our lobster rolls to try here.let me just say this is a must go to for amazing Food and not to mention the quality you get.Nancy also gave us a French fries with sauce and crab meat to sample! delicious as well as the lobster rolls!if you haven't been here yet, you need to give it a visit. highly recommend it and I know we'll be back“
“We had the pleasure of doing a farewell event for one of our co-workers last night with Krisp Events and cannot recommend them more. From beginning to end, they made the planning and execution of our in-office cocktail party seamless and easy. My contact, Patricia, was super-efficient and transparent with the costs involved and worked with me on the menu. Our Chef, Tom, was truly amazing. Personable, warm, friendly, and cooked up delicious food that everyone enjoyed. As the planner, it makes my job so much easier when I can rely on my catering company to deliver as promised. I will recommend Krisp to other planners in our network and will be calling on them again for other events in the future. Very satisfied!“
“This place would get 5 stars if the portions weren’t not so small! I’ve been here about 3 times, their chicken tikka masala, Lentil soup and garlic nan of course :p was oso good. I did try the mango shrimp which sorry not sorry it tasted kind of soapy. Otherwise! I was pleased with their environment and customer service :). MANGO LASSI run dont walk.“
“OMG! First time here and it won't be the last! If you are looking for a local yocal place with great food, fun entertainment, awesome prices and exceptional service, this is it! Large pizzas are huge and very good, house salad has a delicious dressing, my chicken marsala was wonderful, my friend's mushroom risotto was great and desserts and cappucino were delicious. Their house wine - Chianti - was also really nice!! Can't wait to go back and also try their other location!! Grazi!!“
“Every dish was incredibly delicious, and what stood out for me was the use of homegrown chili peppers from their garden. The sikhye, chueotang (loach soup), pa kimchi, and kongnamul guk (soybean sprout soup) were all delightful. They also offer a variety of tasty rice cakes. Highly recommended!“
