Restaurants in Ridgewood

“Absolutely fantastic. Everything was outstanding. Sadly, I wish I had saved room for the flourless chocolate cake. Rest assured I’m heading back on my next visit to NYC and will not leave without dessert.”

“Fantastic food, twist on classic Americana. Great drinks and service”

“This place is so charming and so convenient. Everything is prepared that day and is super fresh. I’m obsessed with their spam and egg musubi. Also the owners are so sweet and always give my dog a little onigiri of her own ✨”

“Saludo banda estoy aquí Las chilangas les recomiendo que la quesadilla 🌮están súper delicioso vengan ah pasar con sus familia y el servicio es espectacular.”

“Great craft beers. Loved everything we tasted.”

“I love the wait staff and the owner was extremely attentive to the patrons. I will definitely be back”

“Omg... these burgers are out of the control.
Wow that's all I have to say ... my sons told me you have to try this. I was like, okay.
I didn't think it was going to be as good as it is.... this place is a must, the fries are ridiculous”

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.”

“The food is amazing! We had the mussels, Brussels sprouts, artichoke hearts, chicken, shepherd’s pie, fish sandwich, and burger. The drinks were wonderful and the ambiance was so much fun. Really had a laugh at the bathroom with all the googly eyes.”

“Excellent food, nice selection of snd beer and dessert was outstanding. Will definitely revisit.”

“We just had the most delicious meal from this family owned Thai restaurant! I had a dietary restriction and they were so kind about it and helped accommodate our needs. I very highly recommend trying them out! Make sure to get the fried ice cream at the end! It’s 1000/10 :)”

“I placed an order late Saturday night and waited an hour but Door Dash canceled the order and my sweets never arrived. I tried again Sunday morning and I was delighted to receive what I ordered in addition to some extra treats for the trouble from the previous night. So very much appreciated. Everything was absolutely delicious. Thank you so much.”

“Great Ukrainian food - genuine recipes and taste, handmade, fresh or frozen. Also sells some popular Ukrainian food brands and souvenirs from Ukraine.”

“The best restaurant in the area ... food, service, drinks, and ambience!!!”

“Fantastic experience. The environment is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were very attentive, friendly, and gave great recommendations. The pastries (cherry turnover, alfajor and vanilla cream puff) were all delicious and the coffee was so good.”

“Excellent food and lovely people!!! Recommended 100%”

“Had a lovely meal tonight. The three of us shared the Kee Mao with chicken, the Crispy Three Flavors Duck, and the Hat Yai Fried Chicken. The duck and the Kee Mao were the standouts for us. The staff were really friendly, and we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Will happily return to try more dishes!”

“Its such a clean place,with delicious flavors and awesome staff�����. I always recommend it too my friends.”

“Very attentive staff!! Delicious food! I love the music!!”

“Just discovered this local spot and can say it’s become a go to for drinks! Best margaritas and food! Lorenzo and Jessica were so nice and very attentive.Will definitely continue coming back and recommending to friends.”

“It was okay. $5 for 1 pupusa though is a lot, I think. I did the leap to try a new place. It was okay, but food was hot, and order was correct. As people say, no indoor seating, to go or can sit outside.”

“I realized I’ve never left a review despite ordering from here for YEARS. E-chiban has some of the best sushi in town for quality and price. It’s one of the few places I get delivery from and the quality and portion size is always great. Their prices have gone up, but I do feel with how much they give you it’s worth it (especially the salmon sashimi dinner)! Their delivery driver (Mok?) is always so kind, remembers my name and order, and is great at his job. It’s nice being a regular here. I’ve tried other places nearby and they don’t come close imo.”

“The absolute best . Fav items are costillas en salsa verde and their unbelievable barbacoa quesadillas. Totally god tier and it is unacceptable this only has 4.2 stars…my fav spot in this general style in all of bk and queens…”

“A great place to play, great place to see a show. They really care about the sound!”

“I finally got a chance to try their vegan slice during my field work day ! Pizza was absolutely delicious ! Thankh you…. 3rd pic is my second trip there for the other vegan slices”

“great location. perfect size. food is on point 💥💯🇪🇨 great portions and I jave never been disappointed! com on Come All!”

“The food is absolutely delicious. I had the bleu cheese burger. The best I’ve ever had. No exaggeration. Can’t wait to go back.”

“it is the best food in NY”

“I used to order from seamless. Great food. I love their curry with tofu. They also have great “fish sticks”. This food is really great and always come hot and nice looking. Go for it”

“I’m leaving all five stars cause this is my jam and I love the perfect duo behind the counter but tonight this new lady tried to charge me 2$ to use my card and that’s not happening said to bring cash next time. Next time I won’t come. She doesn’t need to be there intimidating loyal customers and using a card does not equal 2$ charge.”

“Prince & faycel is the best & gave me a very friendly service here at this deli tonight I had a great experience. The sandwiches here are great these two deserve a bonus in tips!! & raises, wallah.”

“Great coffee, just like in their other locations, but they really should upgrade the sizes of their cups to be more in line with the average sizes served in the area.For example, they seem to be using an extra small cup and making that the same price as somewhat larger cups are selling for in the area.”

“We got some tacos and a rice bowl. The food was fresh and super good quality. The guys working there were chill, smiling and patient with us. Love their variety of products, will definitely be back!”

“Great service. love this store, however new old guy making sandwiches is so bad. Always messing up orders and has no respect for others. Only reason this store is getting 4 stars is because of the great staff there in the mornings. !”

“Wonder has been one of our most consistent go-tos. Pickup is usually easy, the system works, the space is clean, and the food has honestly surprised me from day one. When they first opened, it felt like every order was dialed in, like the kitchen cared.

I’ve tried a ton of the menu and there are staples I keep coming back to: the salmon is always generously portioned and perfectly cooked, the sauces and capers are on point, and the broccolini is genuinely one of the best sides I’ve had anywhere - that char + acidity goes with everything. Even the simple stuff like fries and potatoes hit when they’re done right.

That’s why I’m leaving this review: lately I’ve had a stretch of 5-6 orders with small misses that didn’t used to happen - missing toppings, uneven pizzas, a pizza with a huge bubble, broccolini missing the lemon dressing, stuff like that. Not enough to stop ordering, but enough that it makes me stick to the “safe” items instead of exploring.

Still a big fan, still ordering regularly, just hoping the consistency snaps back to how it was because Wonder at its best is hard to beat.”

“The nicest guy of all New York works here. I wish I had gotten his name but he was working the register. If I didn’t live in Astoria I would come buy something here all the time because of how nice he was.”

“Really solid Dunkin’ location. The line moved quickly and the staff stayed friendly and efficient even while it was busy. My iced coffee was made perfectly and the donuts were fresh. It’s a convenient stop when you need a quick pick-me-up, and the store itself looked clean and well maintained. I’d definitely stop here again.”

“Awesome place. Peaceful environment. Clean, safe, and on time for whatever you taste buds desire. Oh, they also sell great nutrition drinks. Top of the line for less than the manufacturers dime. Come visit. Especially on Fridays after 2 p.m..
Thx for making our community a better place. 😉”

“Been coming here for years. Their food is amazing, always fresh and prepared neatly. I usually go for the cheeseburger deluxe or the Summer Slim smoothie. Unbelievable stuff. The service is quick and the staff are friendly. Never been to a better deli, to be quite honest.”

“Standard 24 hour dive joint neighborhood grocery store. Sells deli sandwiches, random household basics, smoke shop items, and similar. They take credit cards and cash, with ATM machine inside.”

“muy buena la atención para el publici”

“Great food great drinks awesome sound.”

“Great for a magazine launch. Cult magazine”

“Always delicious! Literally never disappointed!”

“This place can get busy but thats because the food is really that good!! Everyday there food is fresh and delicious plus you can get european products and groceries at the same time 10/10 if you haven't been here deff go!”

“The Best Pizza and Hero’s!! 👍🏻👍🏻”

“good food, great matcha, amazing vibes!
try to go when it’s slow & chill, otherwise you might face a bit of a time wait but overall - I loved it!!!”

“Love this place!
So happy it’s just around the corner from me ☺️. The bartenders are amazing, Jessica is such a sweetheart and makes the absolute best drinks. The owner is super cool and really sets the tone for the great vibes here.
The cook always puts out delicious finger foods which are perfect for snacking while drinking. I especially love when they do karaoke nights and bring in live bands, it’s always a fun time. And when DJ Sound Nice plays there, he always has the place rocking with all types of music.

This spot is a total gem—great atmosphere, great people, and always a good time!”

“Great breakfast and coffee option in the Ridgewood,Queens area
We have the egg and cheese croissant and the coffee .The ambience is relaxing and Highly recommended”

“If you are looking for sugary drinks that are 2/3 milk/water, this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for real Italian coffee, this may be the best place in the country. Bring cash!”

“Lovely spot, very friendly staff, coffee to die for yummy ;-) Perfect place to sit down and have a lovely lunch. Can't wait to get back in there.”

“My visit to La Casita was beyond excellent! The food was packed with flavor, and the margaritas were absolutely delicious. While the food and drinks alone make this place worth visiting, what truly stood out was the service.

Neyra and Omar were amazing. Neyra was our server, and together they worked seamlessly as a team, making sure we were taken care of from start to finish. Their attentiveness and hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable.

After that first visit, La Casita quickly became one of my family’s favorite spots, and we find ourselves coming back often. Highly recommend!”

“This is the best food in queens”

“Different, welcoming and quaint.”

“Great beer, great vibe. Can't wait to make it back there again!”

“Amazing service! Highly recommend this bakery. The baker pays attention to detail, I loved my birthday cake. It was delicious and beautiful, it was also delivered on time.”

“Local hangout with tasty drinks!”

“The best burger ever! Service impeccable!! I would recommend to everyone!!”

“The second time here... Very nice atmosphere, "real chill"... Very good music. People are kind.... And the girl who works here is so kind and polite. She is awsome. ❤️”

“Cool neighborhood bar. This is a very spacious bar. They have a pool table and some games. The service is good. The prices are great. It's a laid back atmosphere. You can order food in the back. I didn't try the food so I can't rate it. Maybe next time I go I'll try it.”

“The bagels are very good!! The worker Alex was super friendly and nice and quick. Definitely 10/10 and recommend. For sure coming back.”

“delicious 😋 yummy 😋 wasted no liquor”

“La atención exelente y muy rapida gracias Retazos bar restaurante”

“We came by (and had always wanted to since before they opened) for our wedding anniversary. We were a party of four (my husband, our son, daughter, and I), we were promptly seated in the back (they asked where we wanted to sit). Our waiter was very courteous and friendly. Our son ordered pork buns and scallion pancakes; they were very filling for him, and he enjoyed them very much. Our daughter got a bowl of chicken shoyu ramen, unfortunately it was too much for her - she enjoyed her noodle soup very much. Husband ordered pork gyoza and chicken yaki ramen, he was very delighted and it tasted great. I went with tonkotsu ramen. All the dishes were well portioned (for their price). Very clean establishment. Also liked the idea that thier sink is outside of the restroom, it is quite brilliant! We also liked thier curtain that were separating the dining area to the restroom. They were rabbit themed, including a mochi making rabbit in the moon. We anticipate our return!”

“very nice staff,love the milkshakes here!”

“I’ve gone here twice. Once right after my mother’s funeral and they were not only extremely welcoming but soooo thoughtful and sweet. Almost a month later my cousin and I went back and again they did not disappoint!!! Service food and drinks are all a 10 out of 10❤️ this will definitely be my stop whenever I’m in town”

“I had such a great experience here! The lady working was incredibly friendly and went out of her way to make me a fish-less encebollado since I don’t eat meat. She was so attentive the whole time and made sure everything was perfect.”

“Good coffee ☕️ lots of options”

“Yesterday I went there I ask for
Salmon with mash potatoes and salad omg was delicious. My friend ask for French fries very crunchy and wrap. Highly recommended.”

“I called them at 4pm on a Friday asked about a tiramisu cake for my son’s girlfriend. They did not have it available but promised they would have one fresh for me on Saturday morning and they did not disappoint! It was the most moist yet airy perfect texture perfect sweetness cake EVER! Delicious and beautiful. ❤️”

“This place is the best best. I’ve ordered General Tsos bean curd and many Chinese places in the neighborhood and this is hands down the best. They’ll make pretty much any dish vegetarian bean curd edition but the General Tsos is outta sight.”

“At first I thought my wife poisoned me.... And than it slowly dawned on me that it was probably fruity yummy from.earlier... but my God it was delicious! The whole time I was doubled over and writhing in pain all I could think about was the vanilla flavored yogurt with the m&m sprinkles. It really burns!!.... I can't wait to go back again and get myself another yogurt.... As soon as I'm able to walk.”

“The owner is a genuinely nice guy, easy to talk to. Never wait long for my order.

As for the actual pizza, it's a great thin slice pizza. The crust is NOT floppy. It's nice and firm and the flavor of the sauce and cheese is amazing”

“Everything I have tried is freshly cooked tasty,not salty. Dishes are well priced and portions are generous. They also have a bar and music during the evenings.”

“It's a real fine establishment, grade A! Worldclass, even!”

“One of the greats. Buy-one-get-one-free happy hours. Free popcorn all day. Free hot dogs. Atmosphere is incredible. Indoor and outdoor ceiling. Absolutely incredible so long as you don't ask of it something that you shouldn't reasonably expect (e.g., anything more complex than an appropriately priced draft beer or two-ingredient mixed drink). In every other metric it over delivers.”

“This is a very cool bar. The bartenders were really friendly, the pinball machines were in great shape, and the Chicago hot dogs were fantastic.
Also, the bartenders had a good supply of quarters and dollars for the pinball machines.”

“This has been both myself and wife’s go to place for a very long time for authentic and delicious Eastern European takeout!

We always order the Roasted Red Peppers with feta & Shepherd Salad to start then 10 pieces of Cevapi and their signature Pljekavica, and both are always incredible. The Cevapis are always perfectly cooked, and the Pljekavica has such a generous, flavorful burger filling.

The kids always love the Bosna Express nuggets, think more than McDonald’s which is a HUGE WOW FACTOR in itself.

PS:
Do NOT forget to order extra Pita bread and the Cucumber Salad, dalish :)

Everything tasted like it was made with care, reminiscent of a home-cooked meal. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, making it a fantastic value. Service was quick and friendly, too. If you're looking for comforting, homemade Eastern European food, this is the spot!”

“buena comida buen servicio, pero ultimate estan fallando mucho con los leliveris principal fines de semana se demoran mucho , pedi y me llego Asta Las 2 Horas”

“It’s where the magic happens”

“The best mango sticky rice in the city!! All dishes are really great but the mango sticky is truly something special. Ive had it from so many other places and none do it like this one. Would recommend!!”

“This bar is big. It has a bar in front and another in back. It has darts and a pool table. I didn't try any food. The drinks are good. It is dog friendly. Great service and great prices. I would definitely come back. Maybe next time I'll try some food.”

“It’s truly one of my favorite places. I love how friendly the staff is, especially Cami, who helps you choose the best option when you’re undecided and encourages you to try new flavors. If you’re hesitating about coming to this place, let me tell you—it’s the best choice and you won’t regret it.”

“Celebrated my son’s college graduation with an amazing dinner at Joe & John’s Pizzeria on Myrtle Ave in Ridgewood, Queens. Everything turned out to be great and fun. We lucked out to have been there the night the Knicks played and was a great experience watching the Knicks win. The food….OMG THE FOOD (love the square pepperoni pizza, penne with vodka sauce, skirt steak, chicken parm and everything we ate)…was delicious and their team was great!!!!!”

“This is the best food in queens”

“Have very much enjoyed everything I have bought. Can't wait to go back tomorrow for more. Everyone from the owner on down have been friendly and helpful. I really do enjoy going to Grimaldis, it stands out from all the other bakeries.”

“The meatballs, kielbasa, kraut,beets, and mushroom/cabbage pierogi were authentic and delicious. First time customer and we will be back!”

“Best Pizza Ever!!! Went today for the 1st time and was amazed. Must try!! I ate there…was so good, I had to get a few slices to go.”

“The bagels are very good!! The worker Alex was super friendly and nice and quick. Definitely 10/10 and recommend. For sure coming back.”

“Thank you so much for an amazing breakfast! The rewards are awesome! I ordered an item and was waiting and the people were so nice they asked us if we needed help before we even knew we needed help hahaha. No but for real super nice and fast service. God bless y'all!”

“Delicious fresh burgers, hot crispy french fries. Everything I was hoping for. I am very impressed by the quality of the food. This is the place…”

“The Best Pizza and Hero’s!! 👍🏻👍🏻”

“Saludo banda estoy aquí Las chilangas les recomiendo que la quesadilla 🌮están súper delicioso vengan ah pasar con sus familia y el servicio es espectacular.”

“It’s decent Good place to get away for some fast food”

“Really enjoyed this place! The food was delicious, the burgers and chicken were on point, and the service was amazing. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they care about their customers. Definitely coming back!”

“Great Ukrainian food - genuine recipes and taste, handmade, fresh or frozen. Also sells some popular Ukrainian food brands and souvenirs from Ukraine.”

“Good place to have lattes when I’m in the area.”

“Always delicious! Literally never disappointed!”

“Best coffee shop/wine bar ever!!!!”

“Finally made it to Salvo’s and it did not disappoint. Serving some truly delicious sandwiches- we shared the mortadella with burrata/pistachio pesto and the eggplant parm. Hands down the best eggplant parm I’ve ever had. Such a beautifully curated space, feels special but not pretentious. You could tell everything was made with the freshest/high quality ingredients and the utmost care. Can’t wait to go back!”

“Small cozy spot with a relaxed atmosphere. You order at the bar and the service is quick and friendly. No alcohol, but the focus is clearly on the food. The menu is small but thoughtfully put together, and everything feels fresh. The handroll sushi is especially great and definitely worth trying. A nice casual place to stop by when you want quality sushi without the fuss.”

“I tried Ask Alita on a solo adventure some months ago and am so happy to have found it! The space is cozy, the wine selection is great without being overwhelming, and the snacks are excellent. I recently brought my husband on Valentine’s Day and was again impressed! I am excited to continue being a patron!”

“This place is incredible the pizza is so good and the garlic knots are also good. This place is clean and delicious. Also they have this good deal that when you buy 2 slices of pizza you get water or a canned drink. You won’t be disappointed! The pizza is kind of cheap but it is the best pizza in nyc!I love this place!”

“Food is really good and servers are super kind! Price is also very affordable and great portions.
One note I would say is that the dine-in experience felt a bit empty, quiet and too bright, but the restaurant has already a really cute decor and set up. I suggest they just turn off the ceiling fluorescent lights, leaving on just the warm table lamps and add a bit of background music to make the atmosphere warmer and more appealing. This restaurant deserves to be full :)”

“Chicken over rice is the best
They make the best food and the customer service is perfect love this deli come visit
And some of the best employees ali and his boss”

“Some of the best tamales around! So hearty and delicious. Huge portions for just $3 each. The sauces (especially the green sauce) are incredible and pack some heat 🔥🌶️🫑 the service was also kind and fast. will be back!”

“YoYo Chicken is 🔥! The chicken is super tasty, the smash burger is insane, and the portions are big and satisfying. Definitely hitting different.”

“Great cafe. From the customer service, the recommendations given, information about what they’re serving, and taste and execution of the latte and matcha this place is 10/10. Lost a star for food simply because there wasn’t many pastry’s offered or available when i came in. My partner who has been in the matcha industry for quite some time said her matcha with coconut syrup was delicious. My decaf Cocado was also perfect temperature, texture and flavor. The barista was also knowledgeable of origin and flavor profile and didn’t seem bothered by me interrupting and asking. Atmosphere is perfect, quiet and thoughtful, with the perfect amount of seating and decor. Would 100% recommend and we will be returning soon!”

“Willows rocks. It's not your average neighborhood bar, with a bit of a different vibe. Service is always good. Nat is awesome.

They have Coors banquet in the stubby bottle, which is a + from me.”

“Wish I could post a pic of the sandwich I bought, it was stacked and received great customer service. Surprised at the review with the 1 star, bcus I had a great experience
I even jokingly told the guy he needs to bring his EBT machine back. Very nice people.”

“The coffee was reasonably priced, made in a quick manner, and delicious. I also like how simple and unpretentious the menu is.

The space itself is incredibly stylish even though those chairs are deathly uncomfortable.

The baristas were friendly and helpful — which is amazing when many others in the city deliberately refuse to acknowledge you & hate your guts just for coming in.”

“Great service and great coffee! I tried the black sesame cream latte and I highly recommend it! They have several tables if you wanna grab your laptop do some work as well.”

“This place has really become an excellent addition to the neighborhood. Good coffee, beautiful art, tables filled with historical relics. Cozy atmosphere filled with comforting sound.”

“Great vibes and ambiance. A very nice change from the Brooklyn dive bars. Drinks are good and bartenders are nice, friendly, and chatty.
Only negative is if you want to play pool with a group of friends you have to win the table from a couple of pool sharks who continually own the table over and over again. So bring someone who is very good at pool or you’ll only be playing the pool sharks. Kind of lame but whatever. House rules I guess.
Aside from that I enjoy this bar.”
