Restaurants in Forest Hills

“I tried the Mutton Sula Kabab and Chicken Signature Masala, both were absolutely delicious and had the real taste ! The fluffy garlic naan made the meal even more special. The staff were so friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Absolutely worth every bite.”

“The soups and quinoa falafel 🥙 are out of this world . Mouth waters just thinking about next time I will be eating these items”

“I had the rigatoni alla vodka and it was absolutely fabulous. I was full and took the rest home for dinner. The owner came up to me and my family, and we felt right at home. Lovely man and owner! He even ended the night with dessert on the house.”

“food is amazing and cocktails even more so. highly recommend!”

“Another amazing dinner from Katsuno. Our favorite authentic Japanese restaurant in NYC came through for us once again, this time with take-out. Tonight we had the Tuna Avocado Salad, Nigiri Sushi, Pork Hirekatsu, and Tempura Udon. All served with a refreshing can of Funaguchi Kikusui Sake. Everything was fresh and delicious as always and served curbside in a safe no contact manner. Thank you Katsuno!”

“I definitely recommend trying this place out. Most halal places in new york don’t have a nice vibe or atmosphere, but this has the right colors, the ambiance, and the food is amazing. Cute little date spot for sure.”

“Love this place . Nice drinks and beautiful environment . Very cute bartenders. Lindo demais . ❤️😎”

“My first experience with poke, and Pokeplus exceeded my expectations. You are offered a surprising array of ingredients with which to build a bowl to your exact tastes. All ingredients are fresh, and service was welcoming and friendly. The location is right around the corner from 71st-Continental Ave subway station, and Queens Blvd bus service all give easy access. Unless you are already accustomed to exotic ingredients, be prepared for a surprising new and delightful cuisine.”

“Delicious yogurt great atmosphere ❤️”

“I went there with my bf and he said it was pretty good a year ago when he tried it so we tried it together this year. I didn't know what to expect, but the person at front was very nice! And it only took 15 minutes to cook which was a really reasonable time. When the food came it looked amazing and tastes amazing too! It was super affordable and it's very filling as well!”

“Excellent selections of wine with plenty of expert suggestions. The food is inventive and designed to go with the wine. The family that owns, prepares and serves is warm and welcoming. My FH favorite!”

“My aunt was served spoiled food at the 5 burros cafe up the block from Austin Street Pizza. We were really upset because they simply gave us a refund and my aunt was left so hungry. I remembered Austin Street Pizza was down the block. We went there and even though they were shutting down for the night the gentleman behind the counter let me get a pizza for her. I am so grateful I was able to get her something to eat. Thank you for your kindness and graciousness. She said her pizza was delicious.”

“i used to go here all the time in high school their eggs were perfectly soft and their corns dogs were always tasty the sugar on top is the perfect combination to the savory of the corn dog the only thing i appreciate about forest hills”

“Ran into this place randomly and I don’t regret it at all. I think it’s one of my top Greek restaurants at the moment. The atmosphere and customer service is awesome. They treat you very well with respect. The place is extremely clean with nice music as well.”

“Cabana in Forest Hills has that lively, island vibe — upbeat music, friendly service, and food that feels like a mini getaway. I ordered the chuleta de cerdo (pork chops) with rice, black beans, and tostones. The sides were delicious — and lucky me, the tostones came with a garlic dip, which I happily used to give my pork chops the extra kick they needed 😉. I was hoping for a bit more Dominican-style flavor from the pork, but overall, a solid spot for good vibes and Latin comfort food done right.”

“Beautiful lounge with a chill vibe
Food, Drinks and Music that sets the mood. They also have a happy hour with everything 50% off the entire food and drink menu.”

“Great family owned business and it was built by Tap King. The tap lines for the beers are always clean and the beers and food are great.”

“One of the most delicious Beef Birria tacos u can taste. Made with Jalisco Brisket and Chihuahua Cheese…too delicious to make this up.😋 The tasty rich dipping broth gives it extra points ⭐️…Chris the bartender was respectful , kind and attentive. Great customer service from all the staff🥇”

“Excellent service and menu! We had a wonderful night.”

“Lovely atmosphere, delicious and generous portions, and quality service”

“We always order sushi takeout from this restaurant. Service is always very fast and timely. The rolls are well sized and taste great! Love the selection of special rolls.”

“Came here for lunch with two friends. We all enjoyed ourselves and the food was very good. The only thing I would ask is that there should be a vegetarian bento box option. It was mildly annoying that I couldn't get any substitutes because I really do enjoy bento boxes.  However, there were other vegetarian options so all was not lost!”

“Small bar and kitchen. The atmosphere is amazing. The staff is amazing. Food was delicious. I had the cheeseburger with jalapeno peppers and mushrooms. It was delicious ?”

“The best sushi in the neighborhood by far! Very kind and welcoming, delicious food, and affordable prices! I’m so happy to have a reliable sushi restaurant finally!”

“Delicious food! Definitely coming back on date night!”

“The most disgusting hookahs check out their pics and u will see they use old clay hookah heads. Very expensive and extremely rude staff it’s unreal they still work there.”

“Fabulousness A must place to go”

“My friends, staff, and I have been to this place months ago and that one of my friends ordered nacho supreme, which had nacho cheese, guacamole, and many others. The service was wonderful, and the atmosphere was people eating there, taking orders and many other things.”

“Amazing”

“Atención con calidez y amabilidad. Buena comida mediterránea. Lo recomiendo”

“Everything was delicious. We hosted a Purim breakfast at our temple and everyone was so happy and full. I personally put in the order myself and everything from ordering to delivery was so smooth. We ordered large quantity of variety of bagels with all types of cream cheeses, salmon salad, white fish and tuna. Plus we got crepes with ricotta cheese which were Devine. And we ordered lots of croissants 🥐 , plain and chocolate which by the way are huge. I can’t say enough how fresh and delicious everything was. Highly highly recommend this place!!”

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️”

“Very tasty and varied Indian food for reasonable prices.
The service was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant for lunch or dinner
This restaurant also has a very good weekend brunch menu as well.”

“Love this spot! It has become my go-to sushi place within Forest Hills. I have placed both small and big (like platters) orders with them. Their food is fresh and delicious, with plenty of options. Equally importantly, their service is always wonderful and prompt. Can't wait to have sushi from them again soon :)”

“Being a lover of barbecue, this place did not disappoint me; decent size portions on the 3 meat plate and at an excellent price, the ribs, pulled pork & sausage were all good so now I have to go back for the brisket & chicken; loved the baked beans & the sweet potato mash with pecans made for good sides! I definitely recommend & like MacArthur…..I shall return!!!!”

“Staff are very welcoming. Place is clean and the cookies are to die for. Best cookies in the city with different varieties to choose from. They also have gluten free, non dairy cookies as well. 10/10”

“It's our first time here, we wanted a more regular style of pizza vs the regular Danni's pizza that we normally get in the neighborhood so we decided to give this one a shot. There pene slice was delicious and the garlic knots were fabulous, best ones I've had yet actually. We also ordered a cheese slice and the pepperoni , I found the pizza to be to floppy I would have preferred more of a slight crunch and sturdy slice. But none the less it satisfied my craving for a classic regular NY slice”

“Great location for a delicious cappuccino, tea and pastries… enjoyed our visit. Thanks, Shawn B. Singh, Financial Professional at Guardian”

“I enjoyed the vibe and atmosphere of the place. Very cozy and feels like you’re transported out of nyc. However the food was average. It was okay but I don’t think I’ll be back. Just a bit bland and lacking of the umami I expect from a ramen place. However, the staff was kind and attentive. We were served quickly and enjoyed our time.

If you prefer milder tastes then this would be a good option.”

“Good one!! Would love to visit again”

“This place is beyond exceptional. The food is always fresh. The service is impeccable. The young lady is friendly and always on point with everything. Eat here at least 2 to 3 times a week, and it always hits the spot. Either for lunch or dinner you can't go wrong here. I've tried a variety of the menu items and they are all made so well and for a great reasonable price.”

“The crispy spicy with the elementary spicy is A1. Truffle fries one of the best around and great service”

“As a first generation American born to parents that came from Budapest Hungary, it is nice to find a Hungarian pastry shop. Since I no longer live in NYC any longer, I order my poppyseed Beiglis to be delivered to Virginia. They are always fresh and tasty.”

“They say never judge a book by its cover ..
If it wasn’t for my friend who took me I would never have tasted a super tasty delicious toasted bagel with running eggs, melted cheese and extra grilled bacon topped with black peppers …

Just yummy yummy for my fat, well fatter tummy as I ended up asking for another one …

Super great and friendly staff made the whole experience even better.

Thanks for taking me there Jay …
Let’s go again :))

And so we did go again as I had to have that tasty bagel again. Yes I ended up having two more …

And I went one last time as I was leaving Kew Gardens and this time I had two more bagels added with fresh tomorrows and avocado …

So yummy …”

“By far the best food and crew around! They know everyone by name, their food is always delicious and prepared quickly and they have never gotten an order wrong - I highly recommend!!!”

“Great vibe - good options and they do my pancakes special for me so ya gotta love that!!!”

“Great bagels, great coffee, great service! I go in everyday to this local neighborhood institution and am greeted by friendly workers in a clean and efficient environment. New York bagels at its best!”

“One of the best Greek places we eat at! Food is always fresh and delicious!”

“If you live at Parker Towers (or anywhere nearby) and you’re not ordering from here, what are you even doing?

I’ve been a weekly regular for 4+ years (and a casual customer for a decade before that). After hundreds of orders, here’s my verdict: for the price point, the consistency is impressive.

My top picks:
- Fried Tofu & Broccoli in Brown Sauce (~$11) always on point.
- Combo Platters: General Tso’s, Boneless BBQ Ribs, Orange Chicken (lately too many orange peels, guys, let’s fix that! 🙏🏽) ~$12–13.
- Fried Wings + Shrimp Fried Rice (~$12)
- Kung Pao Chicken

The experience?
No fuss, no frills. Call in, give them your order and address, and 15 minutes later, the delivery guy shows up. (Shoutout to my delivery guy, you’re a 5⭐️ legend, bro.)

Pro tip: Delivery is free, but tip well because these guys hustle.

And to the one-star reviewer complaining about not getting more than one fortune cookie… come on. This isn’t fine dining. It’s solid, affordable, consistent takeout.

I’ve probably ordered more than anyone in the building, and yet they don’t save my info or remember me, and that’s fine. It’s simple, efficient, and exactly what I need.

Please never go out of business.

– A loyal Parker Towers customer”

“I love shakes and this is my fav place so far in the area, so clean and Kat was so kind with me love this kind of energy always giving the best, thanks guys super recommend.”

“Great bakery and selections , well worth a visit for your special occasions and everyday treats”

“Great food and great service. Very nice staff. They are very pleasant. The atmosphere is very relaxing. Would highly recommend this place.”

“Excellent food ? ?. Service was not so well. Great atmosphere and clean, but in the bathroom, not so good. Toalet sets are broken, and no toalet papers, water running nonstop not able to close. Overall, it was good.

Kid-friendliness: The server wasn't so friendly and took a plate when we were not finished with food.”

“I was walking by and figured I'd try something sweet and I'm glad I did. I bought a banana walnut muffin and a blueberry and cheese croissant. The croissant was amazing. Its better than most bakeries. Can't wait to go back to try the coffee. Its very clean inside but the storefront is very generic. I dont care except that it didnt draw me in. I just went in on a whim. 👍🏼”

“El Rey Latino has the best Spanish comfort food in our neighborhood. I always dine in.

Their food is freshly cooked, very well seasoned, & prepared with love.

Choose with confidence.”

“Insanely good sushi, very cheap but excellent quality food, authentic decor and fast excellent service. For my vegans there’s so many options from sushi to dumplings. I got the inari roll which was unbelievable and only $5.75 and the miso soup was literally the best I have ever had. I was in a rush and everything came in 5 mins which was so nice. definitely a hidden gem in forest hills!!”

“Fresh sushi, little place, quick service”

“Excellent Customer Service, Consistent Presentation of Food, Pizza is Always Fresh, The Beef Patties are delicious, and if you get a Beef Patty with cheese I Highly recommend the special Hot Sauce that they keep in the front Cooler….This place Might just Be the Best Pizzeria in All of Queens but that’s just Me…. Please come here if you want Quality food and Quality customer service to Match”

“Very classy place to conduct a business dinner and the food is great and plentiful. I had a business dinner meeting here and was 100 percent happy with the surroundings as well as the service and food. The sushi was first class as were the specialties”

“Asian Fortune' food is very good and when you order for delivery it always comes very fast. Only one time in all of the years we've been ordering food have they forgotten an eggroll. No big deal. Mistakes happen.. But the main reason I left 4 stars instead of 5 is because they do not do special requests. Ever. I normally order the pad tai. It always comes with the peanuts and sprouts on the side. One day, I wanted pad tai made with wide noodles instead of skinny noodles..and they said no. That was a few years ago. Tonight, I figured I'd try to see if they would make a special request. I ordered The pad kee mao, which is a spicy dish made with wide noodles.
I didnt ask them to change the dish..
I asked if they could give me a side of sprouts and chopped peanuts on the side(which id gladly pay for) so i can add them on to my pad kee mao myself. Nope. The girl said they have to make the dish the right way. Whatever that means. I didn't ask them to alter the dish. I asked to buy sprouts and chopped peanuts on the side.
Seems like such a simple request to make a customer happy..but apparently getting some peanuts and bean sprouts on the side is impossible to get. It's so weird...considering, we've been good customers for years i find it strange that they wouldnt do this. I mean, they will alter the spice level if you ask..they will leave out onions or mushrooms if you ask. But getting peanuts and sprouts on the side..absolutely not. Its such a small thing to say no to. And i dont get it. I wasn't asking them to alter the dish. I wanted a couple of tablespoons of peanuts and some bean sprouts on the side..which they always give on the with the regular pad tai which i was willing to pay for. Such a strange thing to say not to.”

“(Translated by Google) The best passion fruit dessert I've ever eaten, it's super creative, homemade flavor that reaches the soul... responsible with your orders... ufff I love it... 100% recommended...(Original)El mejor postre de maracuya que me he comido, es super creativa, sabor casero que llega al alma.. responsable con sus pedidos.. ufff me encanta.. 100% recomendada..”

There were people in the store waiting on the line and that the people that worked behind the counter were nice and friendly.”

“Fantastic service from Tiffany, great beer and food. Love being able to sit outside. Always a great time”

“I loved the atmosphere, and I loved how pretty it is inside. I wanted to order the birria quesadilla, because I want to try birria again (this is my second time trying it) The lady at the register was very nice too! Once I got home I immediately began to eat. I first tried the radish, which I think has a spicy kick to it! I never had radish before! I took a bite of the birria and I immediately fell in love. The meat is very tender and rich and the flavor just melts in your mouth. I added the lime into the quesadilla and that made the taste have such a kick! It was better than the first time I tried birria and I will definitely go to the restaurant again 10/10!”

“their teas are always good and the employees are friendly, esp. Karen.”

Highly recommend if you want the real deal!”

“Sahara Halal Cart in Forest Hills, consistently provides excellent service and generous portions, making it a top choice for convenient, high-quality meals. It receives a perfect 10/10 rating from me.”

“The Shrimp with Broccoli was good. I ordered takeout which comes with the ready to open tray. Out of courtesy, especially since the food didn't come in the paper containers, the lady or cashier should have asked if I needed utensils, condiments &/or napkins. Instead of her handing me the bag, then quickly walking away to the back. I asked one of the cooks as he was going to take a break, & he gladly turned around & gave me the fork, napkins & a fortune cookie.

Parking: Street parking is free, Monday through Saturday after 7:00 p.m.”
