Restaurants in Woodside

“Great authentic cuisine that brings a little bit of Bolivia to the United States. The saltenas are absolutely amazing. The shell was cooked to perfection while the inside was a treat of flavors that was heavenly. The Silpancho had such great flavor. So authentic with the Carne lightly breaded and seasoned with the flavorful Zarza and a beet, carrot and vegetable salsa that complimented the egg and potato. Highly recommend to anyone that wants to experience a little part of Bolivia here in Queens, New York.”

“Sarap😋the fried chicken crunchy but soft…sinigang-sour😉”

“We waited for our order because the server forgot about us… to compensate we were given free tea and ginger ale! The food is good same as before when we first started eating there since it opened in Woodside!”

“Family party enjoying an engagement and birthday. Wanted a menu that catered to all. One side was Nepali and Tibetan. The other side was American. Think fried chicken sandwich. Awesome all around had a group of 10 all accommodated and others in restaurant were seated in 2 and 4's. Tasty food dumplings or mono shared and eaten. Vegetarian in family easily accommodated. Thank you Dawa's”

“delicious food amazing fresh fruit drinks!!”

“This place in Queens was such a wonderful find! The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish packed with authentic Nepali flavors that felt like a true taste of home. Every bite was rich and satisfying, and you could tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The staff was also welcoming and attentive, which made the experience even better. If you’re craving real Nepali food, I highly recommend Red Panda—it’s a place that does justice to our amazing cuisine!”

“Me and my boyfriend came here a little before midnight and the space was bright and clean. The gentleman behind the cashier greeted us, answered all our questions and made any adjustment we asked for with no problem. Staff was super nice! The sandwiches and salad did not disappoint, we will be coming back for sure. Thank you!!”

Highly recommend their new seasonal drink, Mad Purple made with purple sweet potato cream latte made with their homemade purée.”

10/10 for everything here; drink, vibe, bathroom, perfect attitude.”

“Very clean place, extra friendly staff and customer service. Love coming here, always a pleasant experience. Best ice cream. My new addiction is the strawberry shortcake sundae dasher pictured. Yum.”

“I am Happy to say I was introduced to The Woodlot thanks to a Yelp event. I enjoyed the atmosphere and service, I declared that I would definitely return.

A couple months later a fav and I decided to stop in after an event. Upon walking in Amanda (co-owner/partner) greeted me by name. What? How in the world did she remember me by name? That’s wild and the look on my face expressed my utter surprise. We all burst out in laughter.

Just like the first time we grabbed a seat @ the bar. I truly enjoyed the atmosphere and feel of the space. It gives spacious elevated comfort, if that's even an interior design thing.

Amanda was just as sweet and attentive as before as she managed to take care of everyone solo. I told her I returned like I said I would to try their wings and another cocktail off the menu.

My fav and I both opted for a couple of the FOCO U Martinis. For wings I went with the Honey Garlic and my fav went with the Classic Buffalo. The wings were fresh and hot, I can’t say for sure if they are the “Best Wings in Queens” just yet. They were good however, I need to try them a couple more times before I can decide.

Amanda thank you for your amazing service and impressionable personality. I think I found a go-to spot in Woodside.

Just A Note:

They do not offer ranch with the wings, only blue cheese (yuck). TBH its not needed the wings can stand on their own.”

“(3.8/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️)Local late night taco truck ! You can’t go wrong if you want some Mexican during late hours. Over all I don’t think they’re out of this world - I don’t think they’re bad. I think they’re a convenient taco truck. I tried birria tonight but I’ve had their tacos quesadillas and tostadas.”

“It was nice there have a great experience”

“This place is the best chinese food in New York City. I never had food better than this. I reccomend the chicken if you were to com here. This place is so good I wish I can throw my birthday party in here.”

“The owners are super welcoming. The food was delicious. Nice place to have in the neighborhood.”

“Great atmosphere with awesome staff behind the stick. If your looking for a friendly neighborhood spot to have a few and shoot the s@!t then this is the place for you.”

“Muy bueno Todo y Sobre todo lo hacen con Mucho Amor he hijiene La Familia es muy Amable”

“10 Star Food !!! Great service °°°”

“Hole in the wall Dominican food. I love the mangu here. Good food, huge portions, cheap prices. The owner is super friendly and kind. Cash only spot. Tiny area to sit and eat if you prefer. I usually pick up.”

“They are very rich but they should put the number and deliver nearby

Kid-friendliness: Rice pudding and champurrado deli are tamales for the whole family.”

“Deli is very nice and has everything you need at reasonable prices. Jimmy was very helpful in getting everything that I wanted. The delivery was fast and easy! If you want to see the 2 cats, their names are Tiger and Zaid.”

“My mother has been coming here well over a decade, the people who work here are very accommodating and beyond helpful. It’s an order at counter and sit service, they still make sure you have everything in case you decide to eat in. I bring my wife and family here often whenever I have the opportunity because the food is so good! Great breakfast and daily specials they write on the menu board that is visible on your left hand side besides ordering counter. I’ve had so many different plates and soups I can’t even recall them all only thing I can remember is how much I enjoy every meal all the time. Always that authentic Mexican flavor that taste just like moms cooking. This place is very fond to me because if that reason. You can savor the care and love in every plate, honestly I have nothing but compliments for this restaurant/bakery I could write forever! Shout out to Elizabeth and Edith always very welcoming, gracias!”

“Esnun lugar donde se disfruta de una buena comida ,y se aprecia a los mejores artistas, mis felicitaciones ,a ls Propietaris y gente que trabaja honestamente para servir a su gran clientela”

“Go-to neighborhood spot that stays until relatively late.
6 stars for service and specifically Paolo- always polite, smiling and great service
-2 stars for the bouncers: poor attitude, rude with the illusion that they have authority. It would be great if they can get real; ID reading barely makes them different that the rest of us - haha
5 stars for the beer: great draft and bottled variety
5 stars for the music!

Overall 4 stars, just because the bouncers kill the vibe.”

“Great place friendly bartenders free pool Mon. Tue. and We'd. Free food Sat.”

“"I always come here to get coffee, bubble tea, sandwiches, and sometimes cake. Everything is great! The only issue is that sometimes some staff don’t speak English, which makes it hard to explain what I want."”

“Verry fresh and tasty food”

“Great products... Being originally from Astoria, was born and raised on Cassinelli Pasta... Been searching for something close and this is it...close if not better.... Enjoy”

“Hostess Diana is wonderful and very attentive. The food is delicious. I won't attempt and butcher the korean names of the dished but the pork kimchi and tofu dish is delicious and the clam and shrimp soup is wonderful don't forget to add the noodles”

“Very nice place with good food and great service.”

“Smiley’s has been my go-to spot since I moved to Woodside and it’s been my first real bodega experience. I couldn’t be happier. Whether I’m coming home from work and craving some snacks or need to grab anything last minute, Smiley’s always comes through. The staff is friendly, the shelves are always stocked, and the vibe is just what you’d hope for in a neighborhood spot. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a local. Smiley’s truly comes clutch every time.”

“The only reason I'm only giving it 3 stars for food is that my Mom had the Arancini and I had a Spinach Pinwheel and neither of those things were up to par. If I rated them on the Pizza only, they would get 4.5 stars. The service and the prices are good.”

“We had a fantastic experience here. The food was incredibly delicious and felt authentically Italian, reminding us of our trips to Italy. The owner was wonderful, greeting us personally and being so kind to our kids. Everything was perfect, and we will be happy to come back!”
