“I had the jerk chicken sandwich and had to try the stew chicken patty. I ate every bite..not one piece of anything was left. I'm so glad my coworker referred me here. I WILL be back for the jerk chicken bowl. All the food looks so fresh! The staff were pleasant and the place is super neat and clean!!! Give it a try! You won't disappointed.“
“Love the smoothies, cashew punch is the best and my most favorite smoothie I must say, but I would recommend trying it if you've never been here before. The people who serve it are great as well and all of their products are fresh since they bring it themselves.“
“Came to L'incontro for a casual lunch on a Saturday around 2p. Did not have a reservation and was immediately seated. I gotta say, the service was excellent! Many waiters were serving us and they were constantly checking if we needed something. They were refilling out waters all the time and it was just very polite. What was interesting is the "daily special menu", the waiter was standing their reading about the daily special for like at least 5 mins and we had to stop him from continuing. Either way, we got the bucatini cacio e pepe and it was very yummy. My husband got the veal and it was not the most photogenic dish, but tasted much better than it looked. We also got the octopus, which was soaked in balsamic, also very nice. Overall a very nice traditional Italian place.“
“Torcello is a hidden gem. Run, don't walk to this lovely Italian restaurant which serves up a wonderful array of elevated Italian dishes, and makes you feel like you're VIPs as you dine. Food and drinks were all excellent. Easy parking too. Can't wait to return for another meal. Highly recommended.“
“First time eating here and the food is phenomenal. $15 large bowl and soup with good quantity/quality of ingredients. Gladis made my bowl and it was perfect!!! For those ordering with wasabi aioli be mindful of how much you add because it is strong“
“Great addition to the UES. Excellent food, try the prosuitto, fig and melon appetizer if they have it. The carpaccio was so good and the deserts! The wait staff was very attentive and refilled our water glasses often. The owner was lovely and sweet. I will be back with my family soon.“

“Persepolis has been in our neighborhood for years but we never got there. It's a spacious but intimate-feeling restaurant with very attentive, friendly service and excellent (and abundant!) food. Also a range of very good variations on the mojito! The eggplant appetizers and, of course, kebabs are excellent. Very nice decor.“
“Had chef’s fried chicken, fried rice and cabbage all of which were tasty, precise in seasoning and dining in for lunch was relaxing to jams. They had their own homemade juices. Pineapple ginger lime was deliciously smooth, not overtly sweet, just right. The spread available was well presented and looked tasty. Can’t wait to return.“
“Came here with 5 friends after a 5 hour hike + we were hungry! Great kabobs, salads. Loved the pumpkin dish wonderful blend of spicesVegetarian options: The pumpkin dish was delicious with a spice combination I've never experienced. Will be back for that“
“This place rocks!! Ari, our waiter, was patient, informative and kind. We sprung for the A5 Japanese Wagyu and we’re glad we did *chef’s kiss*. Food was fantastic. Crispy sushi and chargrilled oysters were also top tier. 10/10 experience. Desserts and espresso martinis took the night over the edge. We willDefinitely be back.“
“We had a holiday dinner event..I decided to cater food from Los Amigos due to their reviews...how close it was from work.The food was Dedelicious... we all loved and enjoyed the rice... the chicken..wings... Empandas, everything was just delicious!I place we look forward to going on our lunch break now as well!!Thank you for such delicious food!“
“Glad we found this place while searching for a lunch spot in Harlem. The service was super warm and friendly (¡gracias, Pablo!), and we can highly recommend the Lomo Saltado and the Arroz Chaufa Mariscos, which were both delicious. I've already bookmarked this place and will definitely be back to try some of the other things on the menu.“
“Best Caesar Salad l have ever had! A friend and I stopped in for a late lunch in early January 2024. I added shrimp to my salad, and my friend had the rich, delicious, comfort pasta, Rigatoni Sausage Ragu. Outstanding service too. Will seek out L’Osteria on my next trip to NY.“
“Nocciola is such a great restaurant! We live in the neighborhood and we never thought we would find this gem in the area. The food never disappoints and the servers and manager are always very attentive and accommodating. My bf and I choose a different plate when we go and have worked our way through the entire menu. Seriously, do yourself a favor and go so you can enjoy this family owned restaurant and see exactly why they have been around for a decade. You will not be disappointed. It’s our favorite date night local spot.“
“Service was great Both the pastas were pretty good. The chicken dish was great too however the side order of pasta was very bland and cold. They just added tomato sauce on top. Also got mussels for appetizer and it was great. Definitely recommend.“
“Last night I attended blt prime and not only was the service amazing but so was the prime rib . Prices were on the high side but our server made the effort to make a friends birthday special. Food tastes fresh and I was very happy with the establishment .“
“Stopped in for a quick takeout order on a weeknight, the staff were very attentive and provided great service.Food:- Kai burger: SO good!! Highly recommend. Really good flavor and ratio of meat and cheese and toppings. Best part of the meal.- onion rings: these were okay, but I think it was due to the delay in getting home and eating them. The sauce was good and and breading indicated they’d be good fresh. Could benefit from having more in the order.- soup dumplings: very tasty, still warm when I got home with them. Had a lot of meat packed in.Had a little mishap with the shrimp dumplings, but the staff was proactive and made the situation right. Food was out quick. Give this place a try if you’ve got a hankering for some comfort food.“
“I've gotten food from here four or five times (mostly ordered out but dined in once) and have loved it every time! Really flavorful meals, generous portions, and friendly staff. They're really efficient with preparation time. Cute interior and a welcoming vibe. One of my new restaurant recommendations!“
“This is a small little diner in Astoria, New York. great lunches salad and lunch specials. I've eaten here numerous. This is a place that I always call my go to place for lunch if you have the opportunity. Stop in large portions, good food.“
“The restaurant was hopping on a Saturday night. It was obvious why-our food was great and our server was very pleasant and fun. The only drawback was the noise level which  was quite loud and difficult to hear the people at our table. Perhaps this was because the restaurant was so full of happy energetic diners. Some kind of acoustic mechanism to absorb the noise would be a great addition!“

“It’s Chipotle prices for food that’s flavor and quantity wise- at least $5 more.F- any other bowl place. Why, when this spot exists ? The bespoke options are exceptional. The quality is superior. The quantity is robust.If you need flavor in your life, skip the Karen spots. Life is too short for bland food. Especially when we are all an AC unit away from falling on our heads and sending us to Elysium. Don’t walk here, run.“
“Delicious. We are fourteen months in Riverdale, and have been going to the Japanese place across the street ("Palace" is part of its name) but friends told us about Aoyu, and after tonight's dinner we are converted. Fresh ingredients, full of flavor: even the dinner salad, usually a mundane dish of iceberg lettuce, one grape tomato, and orange dressing, was full of fresh greens and a subtle dressing. Edamane: also fresh and salty. I ordered a seared salmon roll and was delighted by the freshness of the fish. My wife loved her salmon teriyaki, a huge portion; my chicken katsu was crisp, not greasy, and so generous. Red bean ice cream and we were done. A very clean place, well-lit, and delightfully friendly young waitstaff. Five stars, no. How about fifty?“
“We love coming to WTG, food and drinks are always delish!!! We have been coming here for a long time and we must say Carson is the best waitress we’ve encountered! She is beyond sweet and very attentive. Jerry the manager who has been here for a long time is also great. Always checking on customers. Keep up the good work!“
“Old school Italian with large servings of excellent food. It is in a somewhat sad looking strip mall with not much curb appeal. But don't let that throw you off. The interior is nice and the staff friendly.Be aware the place looks like it's been there forever -- the word is out with locals and regulars so it can get crowded at peak hours.“
“I've been coming here wooo for a good amount of years, I am from Queens and when I want authentic Italian food I come here why multiple reasons one of them it's their food. I am always trying something new and they never seem to disappoint me! It's crazy I live in Queens and come this far to have a slice, lasagna or anything different today I went in and had a Philly cheese steak, it was delicious but not like the Philly cheese steak sandwiches from Philly lol. But over all I'll have it again it was delicious hands down.If you're in town, check them out right off the the LIR North Station Plaza in Great Neck. It's better than Gino's thats for sure!!!Kid-friendliness: It's very family oriented“
“Neighborhood Pizza Shop Reborn!Loved coming here growing up in New Ro, it has only gotten better with the new owners! Mario and his brother are super friendly down to earth people! Service is always quick and friendly and they always have something tasty coming out of the oven whenever I walk in! My favorites are the Sicilian Slice, Meat Slice, Regular Slice, Chicken Francese and their desserts are amazing (try the Tiramisu or the Creme Brule Cheese Cake! They are sooo good!)“
“Amazing old school place that helped earn NYC the reputation for great classic Italian food. Stick to the red sauce classics and you’ll surely enjoy. My wife got the Carbonara that was beautifully made and she really enjoyed. The portions were large enough for lunch leftovers the next day.“
“Great service- fast- big open space inside with plenty of tables and a tv. The juice was delicious- ordered the Rebecca Romain and it had a great kick! The sea moss shot was also good. I've never had one before so I was nervous but it tasted just fine. I felt very healthy“
“Healthy and delicious? Yes, please! If you’re in LGA, Green Leaf is THE GO-TO spot for smoothies, salads, soups, and even wraps (ESPECIALLY THE SMOOTHIES). They sell the best smoothies LGA has to offer without a doubt !!! I HIGHLY recommend the peanut butter strawberry banana smoothie. The cashier was very friendly and had great customer service. They recommended I get the large, but I decided to settle for the small. THE SMOOTHIE WAS SO GOOD I HAD TO GO BACK FOR ANOTHER CUP ( THE BIGGER SIZED CUP).“
“Cape Cod has been open for 2 months. The attention to detail reminds me of high level luxury dining. The chef was very attentive and the staff was extremely friendly. This restaurant came as a surprise to us.Please come here. Treat your spouse. Korean or not, this is a fine establishment. Has Michelin vibes. Loved the food“

“The service was outstanding, and the food surpassed expectations. The bathroom had inclusive signage with symbols representing all people. Although there was a parking lot, it was quite crowded and challenging to find a spot. The ambiance inside is a bit loud. However, for birthdays, they sing "Happy Birthday" and blow bubbles, creating a delightful atmosphere.“
“Went her with my wife on a date night and it was amazing. There was a DJ playing nice old school and new music the food is great service is on point and the servers are very respectful and attentive to your needs. I highly recommend this place to come hang out eat some good food and enjoy yourself.“

“Such a great addition to downtown White Plains! Went there for salads today and they were amazing. Fresh ingredients, great combo and choices and dressing with so good (sweet and smoky chipotle). Selection of smoothies and bowls also look good. Interior is clean and bright with some seating. Prices are reasonable compared to similar places. Staff was friendly. Definitely our new go to salad place and so convenient!“
“Family dinner for Thanksgiving was outstanding. Set menu complete from appetizer to dessert. Really good choices and food was delicious. Nice ambiance in main dining room. The servers were excellent. Food service pacing was not rushed giving you time to enjoy. I would definitely recommend and look forward to returning in future.“
“I mean the food is actually great the only thing I don't understand is that they don't have a restrooms. What restaurant doesn't have bathrooms couldn't even wash my hands before eating or after .Vegetarian options: Veggie tacosKid-friendliness: Kids menu nice“
“Went there because it was closest thing to central park that had the highest rating on google maps and we were hungry beasts. My bf and I ordered a smash burger menu in which you get 2x smash burger + fries for something under 14$. We were a little disappointed because we didn't know that smash burgers are coming in bite sizes so we ordered an american after as well and then were barely able to finish out meal.But none the less you can never go wrong with burgers. It's a little more expensive than McD, and if you're hungry don't make the same mistake as we did, rather order the kids menu the burger will come out huge. (Pics for reference)“
“A thin little narrow shop. Fish cut to perfection as well as yummy bagels and cream cheese. The best of all, however, is their chicken noodle soup- made fresh and immediately frozen so it's fresh and perfect when you cook it to serve. A staple for the craving if you just love chicken noodle soup, or have a cold.“
“Wow! You really don't find sushi at this price anymore. Really impressed with Sashimi Express II. They have one table inside, so it really is takeout only. We got home 40+ minutes after leaving, and all the sushi was still super fresh and tasted great. It is cash only! Don't remember what we ordered specifically, but we ordered 9+ rolls and got 6 nigiris for $52 !!!!!! That's unheard of. Sushi pieces were a little small in contrast to your typcial rolls, but for how cheap the cost is you really can't complain. Will be back! 4.5/5“
“Ban Ban Shop is a very cute fusion restaurant that opened across from Columbia University that serves a banh mi, baos, rice bowls, maki rolls, and grain bowls. 3.5 stars: I was very excited to try the banh mi here, but was lowkey disappointed. I ordered the Five Spice Roasted Pork Banh Mi. Don't get me wrong, the pork is very well seasoned/marinated and tender. Unfortunately, the baguette here is too soft, and the oil from the pork does seep through. The key to a good banh mi is the baguette - light on the inside with a thin and crispy crust. You'll know the baguette is good when the roof of your mouth gets destroyed by the time you finish it.“
“The restaurant is in a low traffic area and seems to do decent with takeout. I haven't seen anyone sit down yet each time I went. Restaurant looks pretty clean and full of space. The folk working here are pretty nice. Portion sizes are either lunch or dinner size for your platters. Even the lunch size is a good size portion enough for one person. The dinner size is enough for two people. When we ordered the lunch size for gyro, we had a choice of either a salad or a soup for the first side which is separate from the gyro and there is a second side that goes along with the gyro, so you can pick one of the following fries, rice, lemon potatoes or grilled vegetables. The container is filled about 80% full with grilled pita.When we ordered the dinner size for gyro, its the same as lunch but you can pick two of the sides that go along the gyro. This is effectively filling your container all the way to the top at 100% filled with grilled pita. Recently it appears they increased this to up to three sides, but I imagine they will just reduce the portion size of each side if you pick three but would still fill the container full.The Greek salad is good and the soups we tried were also good. The gyros and chicken souvlaki were on point.“
“I love this place. It's not the cheapest place, but it's well worth it, for dining in or take out. These are our favorites: Mixed greens w garlic Pork chops Salt & pepper shrimp Veg fried rice Chicken curry Pho Sautéed mixed vegetables“
“Definitely a hidden gem in Ditmars, Astoria!! Tried few burgers , they were all packed with flavors of their own. We tried out the Mac Attack , Boss Burger and Truffle Theory Burger . Truffle Theory was delicious , the Boss Burger we couldn’t finish. Milkshakes were on point !!!Service - 10/10 Christina was very NiceAmbiance - 10/10 Outdoor Setup was nice and CozyParking - MeteredWiFi- Yes“
“Deanna’s is the best Pizza and I love their thin crispy crust. I travel from the Bronx whenever I feel like a pie. What’s even better than the pizza is the staff. Everyone who works there is friendly and always greets you when you arrive. I love Deanna’s!“
“Make sure that you bring cash. They have an ATM inside just in case. The chicken parm was so good and cooked to perfection. You need to try their garlic knots & pepperoni rolls as a side dish, and zepolis as a dessert it's sooo delicious I am going back there very soon ???? their food has left a very memorable experience on me.Vegetarian options: There is a salad section in the menu you will find it very delicious.Kid-friendliness: They have kid friendly portions and foods just ask the chef.“
“One of the best meals I've had in a long time! Everything was superb! The wait staff were very attentive but not hovering. When dining out I do not like to be rushed. The appetizers, mains and dessert/coffee were served at the appropriate time and no rush to pay the bill. Also portions are generous! Space is inviting & warm. Enzo's will now be our go-to Italian restaurant!“
“Food was one of the best ever. Good quality and worth the price. Love the Thai Iced Tea, not too sweet. Spicy glass noodle salad is a must.I've been here twice.Got different server each time.Both of them wasn't really attentive.Hard to get their attention even it's not busy. Might consider just a take out next time so I don't have to waste money on tips when I barely get a service.“
“Food was great; was pretty spacious inside; we would come back again.The two of us got a regular slice, a supreme slice (which has pepperoni, red onion, green peppers, and sausage), a Greek salad, 8 wings, and a carrot cake, plus a canned Coke Zero. We ate it all towards the back of the restaurant which had a decent amount of tables. Christmas decor was up which made it feel festive.The regular slice and supreme slice came out hot with good flavor, crust was more on the chewy side which I don’t mind. The supreme slice had an almost smoky flavor, which I enjoyed.The Greek salad was your standard Greek salad with olives and feta cheese, along with tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion, in some mixed greens; overall good.We really enjoyed the wings. We asked for it plain and it came out with this thin crispy batter that we didn’t expect, but it had a nice light crunchy bite. The meat was juicy, though there were only 3 small flats, the rest were pretty big drumettes. Nevertheless, would definitely recommend the wings.The carrot cake was decent; cake was still moist though I wished the frosting was more sour like a cream cheese frosting.Along with the canned coke, the total was around 35 USD which to me wasn’t bad; the two of us were full by the end.Overall we really enjoyed our meal here and would come again.“
“One of my favorite coffee shops in the city. I quickly turned into a daily visitor given their stellar food - I haven’t had anything on the menu that I can say isn’t delicious. The French toast is great and the Bacon/egg/cheese is bar none one of the best I have ever had. Their salted caramel latte is amazing as well. Their quality of taste is also consistent and everyone working there is courteous and very gracious. Would highly recommend.“
“What a pleasant surprise. Used to live in Yonkers and visited last night and was Google a new place to try. Came upon Mason sandwich and intended on going there. Ironically I didn’t pay attention when park and went into the Prince. Saw the menu, looked just as good and settled on the Chicken Shwarma bowl. What a great bowl! Gave my taste buds a treat and the portion was good for the price. Will definitely stop again on a future ride home.“
“My limited knowledge of Ghanaian cuisine did not hinder my appreciation of the fantastic flavors on offer at Tasty Budz. The Jollof and Chicken caught my attention right away and did not disappoint! This is no simple rice dish; it is heavily flavored and cannot be easily dismissed as a side dish! The chicken was also packed with flavor, perfectly tender, and complemented the rice wonderfully.The "Morning Dew" smoothie was another treat. I don't recall all its ingredients, but the blend of almonds and banana created a creamy, indulgent treat that balanced the spice of the Jollof beautifully.Tasty Budz is a must-visit, especially if you've never experienced Ghana's culinary landscape! Can't wait to try more.“
