“I can't recommend this place highly enough. The owner is super friendly and the entire staff is very accommodating and professional. They all make the effort to ensure that everyone enjoys their dining experience. I've been there a few times and have always enjoyed the quality of the food. Definitely check it out!“
“Got a pastrami and a corned beef sandwich. Wow. Very tender and very flavorful. The mustard was also delicious. Will absolutely be coming back for more. Absolute must try if you like Jewish deli sandwiches. The family that runs this place is also very nice.“
“I brought a group of customers here for a dinner and could not have been more impressed. The service was not only excellent but also proactive (as in they brought us appetizers to hold us over until we could pick our appetizers, all without even being asked). The food was also top notch and overall very reasonably priced for a fleishik place. I will absolutely be bringing more clients here in the future!Dietary restrictions: Kosher meat“
“I'll be honest everything was nice and good except 1 thing. They did give us a free dessert for the review, fine, but tg bc the dessert they gave was not up to par with the rest of the meal. It was not much more than an overdone brownie. Cast a minor shadow over the night tbh. In conclusion, food, service good, dessert, not.“
“Came in right at opening time - service was great and Pedro was very attentive. Very clean and looks brand new. They gave us free dessert on the house and the hot sake was strong. Food was good overall, didnt try anything hot because we came so early and didnt want to wait!“
“Thank you for catering my first holiday meal in GN. Everything was delicious. Turkey was juicy and succulent and went great with the couscous and sausage stuffing with plums. I used the liquid you gave to make it even more moist and have already made blintzes and salad and turkey fried rice with the rest.“
“I've lived in NYC for over ten years and this is the best tasting pizza I've found so far. The pizza man there, Ciro makes delicious pizza every time, and, speaking from personal experience, he makes it the way it should be made. Handsome guy too. I recommend you go visit.“
“This was one of the most delicious experiences I’ve had. I’m vegetarian and the appetizers were flavorful, and each unique in taste. The main dish I had (cauliflower shawarma on frena bread) was also flavorful and filling. Ah, and the hummus was unbelievable.The young lady that served us was super hospitable and knowledgeable about the dishes, and recommended some great options.Can’t wait to go back there again.“

“Since moving to the area, Nana's is one place that is consistently fantastic and everyone I bring here raves about it. Simple, yes, but freshly made, flavorful, and healthy isn't always easy to find when you're trying to grab a quick bite.I think the way the menu is laid out is a bit confusing if you've never been. Once you understand how to navigate that, it's smooth sailing.My regular order is the Mu'shwarma, pita or platter depending on how I feel that day. I am pescatarian and love that they don't use artificial fake meat, but this dish is just really well flavored mushrooms. Their platters are great because you can choose so many sides, and they REALLY stuff their pitas, so I think either one works, depending on what mood I'm in. If you get the platter, you can choose pita or pita chips on the side. Their pita chips are fresh and the best I've ever tasted. I'm not usually a drink gal, but I love their Limonana so I do order it quite frequently. Very refreshing and made with all fresh ingredients. Not overly sugary or anything. I've tried a bunch of their salads/salatim and they are all amazing, but the Babaganoush is a MUST. I'm not always a fan of the dish because of the texture but theirs is the best I've ever had. So flavorful and fantastic. Any of the spicy salads (spicy tomato) are actually quite spicy, so be aware. There isn't so much of an ambiance here as there's 1-2 tight tables and it's definitely more of a to go place, although I have dined in and eaten outside when weather permits. There is no table service. The prices are definitely on the higher side, but I can often stretch one of their meals to 2 and the ingredients are so fresh and so delicious, so it is worth the price. Don't expect any $7 street cart pitas here though! I've taken my parents and several friends and everyone that has been has only raved about how fresh and delicious it is, so it's a must go to and a neighborhood staple for me.“
“I thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance, and the service was exceptional. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality offered. While the food was a bit inconsistent, with some dishes shining while others fell short, overall, it was a very good experience. I would definitely “
“What a great bakery. The meat pies were fantastic, and also the pumpkin hand pies. Very flavorful and filling. I was on a Queens tour (from Albany) and was able to get behind the scenes of the kitchen and how they make the breads. Very cool! It was wonderful to see the process and the oven used for baking the meat pies and bowl like different sized breads. It was off the beaten path, and it is so worth visiting.“
“Nice simple place to gether with family and friends. I tried dozens of our russian diners in Queens, this particular place is #1 for Lagman, Lagman is extremely good, made with hand-made noodles and very delicious, decent portions. I tried lamb samosa their samosa looks beautiful but has little more onions than meat inside, Pilov was made well very delicious.real Uzbek pilov cooked on open wood fire, here pilov tastes better than most other places. They have better cooks. Good looking plates and silverware, perfect service, 5 stars overall ✨“
“We had lunch with friends total 4 people, salmon, chicken wings and lamb kebab were all delicious, bread and hummus were tasty too.Service and environment were great! This is our second time to come here, definitely will come back again!!“
“If you dont come here, you are missing out! The owners treat you like family. Customers are priority to them. Their food is amazing from pizza to salads to sushi to falafel! I have tried it all by now. Everything is fresh and you can just have everything on the menu because its THAT GOOD! Best pizza around!!! They do not miss a beat. Truly passionate people!! Highly recommend!!!!“
“I've frequented this place several times, often with large groups. The service consistently impresses with its friendliness and attentiveness. Our go-to orders typically include Cali Poppers, Margarita pizza, Fettucine Alfredo, and more, all of which never disappoint. It's become our go-to spot for celebrations, and we plan to keep coming back for more happy occasions.“
“I went here for Hanukkah to get some fresh made latkes and was very pleasantly surprised by the size and how delicious they were. I tried both the traditional potato and the falafel latkes, along with a tray of assorted bourekas. Everyone loved all of the delicious goodies from Geffen!“
“One of the rare kosher eateries I'm aware of serves cheeseburgers, which is a unique find. However, sometimes they can be a bit soggy. It's essential to enjoy them right away to fully appreciate their delicious flavor.Parking: Parking right in front is meter parking until night time perhaps 6/7pm, depending on how many people are out could need to double park to run in and just grab the food“

“Great food especially the laffa's but beware they include a mandatory 18% tip in the bill and then give you a additional receipt asking if you want to give a tip for 18%, 32% ect.. not mentioning that they already included 18% on the bill!“
“Best pizza in Queens (especially the Gary Pizza)!! I come for their "you think it, we make it" attitude and service! Ask for Aaron, he's the best there is! Always helpful and with a smile. Plus their cinnamon sticks and cookies n' cream dessert pie are mouth watering!“
“Some of the best Georgian and Russian food in NYC. Everything I've had here is bursting with flavor and the soups never disappoint. Fried pelmeni from the side orders is my favorite appetizer and the boneless chicken breast Shish Kabob is some of the best chicken I've eaten in my entire life.While not "cheap" everything on the menu is great value. It's one of the most affordable restaurants in the city and the quality is amazing.“
“Great quality in terms of flavor and healthiness. I like how they provide just the right amount of meat and load their sandwiches with veggies. The staff are very friendly. Really a gem of a place hidden in a hole in the wall next to the LIRR station and overpass.“
“I celebrated my graduation today in this great restaurant. I am glad to say that we passed a phenomenal evening and the restaurant was certainly one of the reasons for this outstanding evening. The crew cooperated in a very nice manner, the food was appetizing and my friends were very cheerful. We shall absolutely come back again for more celebrations. Thank you very much.“
“This was one of the top 2 dinners we had both in the City and in the Hamptons this week and was also the least expensive. We couldn’t believe they have Chilean Sea Bass kabobs, and they are only $13 or $20 for a meal. Excellent. Also the dumpling chicken broth dill soup, baklava, hummus, pickles, fries, hot tea- literally everything was fresh and prepared to perfection. As other reviewers have written, this is a hole in the wall find, and I would come all the way to Queens to eat here again! Very near JFK. Service was fairly quick, clientele mostly large families, takes credit cards. Wonderful Israeli/middle eastern cuisine in a very casual atmosphere at very reasonable prices!“
“My friend and I visited the restaurant on Saturday night and were pleased to find ample street parking. The restaurant was clean and tastefully decorated. We were most impressed by the soup - it was delicious! The rest of the menu was also good, although the portions were a bit small for the price.The tea and the dessert were both delicious! The tea came in a small, adorable kettle with two cups, enough for two people, and it was only $4 !I enjoyed my dessert, Lavsh, which was something I had never heard of before, but it was really good.The only downside was the inclusion of a 20% service fee already added to the bill - this type of business should not charge a 20% fee. A more reasonable 12% service fee should be included, and customers can add extra if they feel it is deserved.Overall, the restaurant was a great place with a good location. The food was affordable and tasty, and the atmosphere was pleasant. However, a more reasonable service fee should be included on the bill, as customers should be given the choice to reward the staff more if they feel it is deserved.“
“Wow was I surprised by this place. Went with a girlfriend for lunch and had a great time. We got the Shurpa soup, it only had one piece of meat in it so even though it's cooked with beef & lamb, you don't get both. The fresh herbs in it were delicious! We also got the fresh homemade salad and Korean carrot salads which were both good and grew on you as you eat them, so they just get better during the meal. The steamed dumplings were good and the kabobs were so good! We eat got 3! We stayed for probably close to 2.5 hours and the restaurant didn't mind. It's a great place to meet up with an old friend and catch up on life!“
“This place is one of kind. My dad, who passed away, 3 years ago studied for his actuarial exams here in the 80s. My family and myself frequently come here for pizza and Israeli food. This place brings back so many fun memories of my childhood. My son loves the pizza here. The falafel tastes great, coating is nice light and flaky, like many other falafel, I’ve eaten. Prices remained reasonable throughout all of these years. Planning on coming here as long as this place is opened.“
“I recently visited Art of Grill and was blown away by the exceptional service! Our server Nelly was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. She made great recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The team's attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel valued and comfortable. While the food was delicious, the service truly made our dining experience stand out. We'll be back!"“
“We have loved this place for a long time because of its cozy atmosphere and amazing menu. However, since it came under the new management (same great owners), the place became absolutely superb. The food is prepared to perfection. Everything is tasty and delicious. The ambience created by the recent renovations is even more welcoming than it used to be. The owners, managers and staff are very honest, considerate and accommodating. Last, but not least, their prices are very competitive and affordable. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. We recently hosted a family event for approximately 40 people there, and everybody was extremely satisfied. It’s a perfect place for a date night or a big family gathering.“
“Great fresh sushi and friendly staff. Definitely recommend for anyone that wants sushi at a good price point. The meat/chicken menu is also tasty. If I could review every time I pick up food for my family I would be leaving multiple 5 star reviews per month.“
“I've been enjoying the grilled cheese sandwich with mozzarella and tomato nearly every day, except Saturdays when they're closed. It's consistently delicious, especially when paired with their refreshing freshly squeezed orange juice, which I simply can't get enough of. Also, another recommendation is if you come early enough you can enjoy the blueberry crepes they make early in the morning. Everything truly tastes delicious. Artur the owner is always there making sure all the food is fresh and service is top notch. Thank you :-)“
“Went the other evening with a group of friends and we had a fantastic time. Great assortment of food, superb service by the staff, and a nice ambiance.The meats tasted great and the side dishes complemented them well. Also can’t say enough about how good that pineapple was - worth going here just for that.A lot of these types of establishments will try to cheap out on how much they serve but we were treated to a true all you can eat experience. At a certain point we needed to ask the waiters to stop because we were all too full.In short we had a fantastic time and we definitely plan on going back.“
“Nice community grocery store. I can’t go there without running into a friend. Great place and vibes. It is often pricey but everything is high quality and you can’t get the small neighborhood grocery store feel anywhere else. There is about 5 isles and they have produce, baked good, Jew supplies, snack desert, and fresh sushi. If need last minute shobbas food i and d is the place.“
“The service was very good and the food was excellent. We were seated right away and the server brought over water and took our order. All of the dishes we tried were hot and came out quickly. The steamed dumplings had a good amount of filling and were nicely seasoned. The house special noodle soup had chicken, beef, and veal(?) and the noodles still had nice texture, the broth was flavorful. We ate Crispy Beef, Chicken and Tofu and Moo Shu Veal. We had white rice and brown rice. Everything was excellent.“
“These guys delivered the goods. It was my mom's 98th birthday in Great Neck and I could be there due to ankle surgery in Florida. So I did the next next thing. I ordered from Kensington Deli in Great Neck and they really came through with the goods. My mom had enough left over for another 3 days. She had her fav, tongue on rye with spicy mustard. Half sour pickle, Cole slaw and a potato knish which she is saving because she was too full. She called me to thank me and to tell me how delicious it was and how big it was. Thank you from me and my family for stepping in and helping to celebrate our mom's 98th birthday“
“Best israeli restaurant in NYC, this place is a hidden gem.My wife and I love hummus, and it was as good as the one we had in Israel.Also, the owners are very kind, they actually watched over my kid while I took the other one the bathroom ?Go!!!“
“Great place to have seafood . Food is very delicious . I had a dragon roll which was good size . Bass was melting in my mouth and buttery but lacked seasoning. Fries very good size but not crispy. They need to work on fries . Greek salad was more of tomato salad than Greek salad . Lacking major Mediterranean elements .Dietary restrictions: Kosher“
