4.25 stars Rating is for DJ night Drinks: amazing Service: great Ambience: chic Food: appetizers over entrees Best: zucchini chips, calamari, mussels, kokkinisto, steak and fries, pita Mid (good but not must order): octopus No good: prasini salad, squid ink pasta The entrees were huge but the seasoning was off multiple entrees and the dishes were cold The restaurant was packed and it gets hot, but it is such a fun scene. Wear your dancing shoes and have a blast. I would get a bunch of apps and split 1-2 entrees. And I would get all the drinks

Squid ink pasta, branzino with side of Oven Roasted Potatoes

Anemi is a relatively new gem in the heart of Astoria inside Voco hotel. The interior is so chic and modern. But the service and food were even better. For our group of 4, we got 3 appetizers to share - grilled calamari, zucchini chips and the fetalo. We also got the branzino and squid ink pasta as entrees. Do not skip the grilled calamari and branzino! Both were so tender and flavorful. The drinks didn't disappoint as well. Our food came pretty fast and our waiter was attentive. Would definitely recommend and I'm so glad I came across Anemi to add to my neighborhood options.

Always check your bill -careless service. Anémi Modern Greek is a contemporary Greek restaurant located in Astoria, Queens, specifically tucked inside the Voco Hotel. Opened in late 2025, the restaurant's name means "breeze" in Greek, reflecting its design goal of providing a serene, Aegean-inspired atmosphere through earthy tones and soft lighting. The restaurant aims to blend traditional Greek heritage with modern culinary innovation.  When I visited in October, I found the restaurant elegant, cozy, and "speakeasy-like," with low lighting and a lively atmosphere; it offers dine-in, takeout, and delivery and is noted for being family-friendly, with accommodations like high chairs. The restaurant, however, is not cheap, and my meal came to $56.00. Among the dishes offered were lobster pasta, grilled branzino, octopus, saganaki, petit filet mignon, and charred eggplant. For dessert, I was recommended ekmek kataifi (a custard-and-whipped-cream pastry with syrup). My main dish was beef carpaccio, which is filet mignon, truffle, radish, and shredded Parmesan, $29. What jacked up the price were the charges for bread, sparkling water, lemonade, and ekmek kataifi. Nothing on the menu was free. I was assigned a lovely table away from a boisterous crowd of diners, and by all standards, this should have been a 5-star experience, for it seemed that the owners and management had got everything right from food to ambiance! Well, it wasn't. I paid for the meal in cash, taking out $70 and assuming I would get the exact change. My waitress took my money and should have given me the exact change, which was $14, and let me determine the tip. She didn't, assuming I was giving her a $10 tip. I got $4.00 back. I then had to summon her back to provide me with exact change. I pointed out the error, which she did not contest. At the time, I was confused; was this an error or deliberate? In the end, I made $4.00, as the experience was unpleasant or careless, to say the least. Would I come back? Probably not, and in any case, management should review how they charge customers who pay cash. Hence my 2-star rating

Branzino

Restaurant is located in the basement of Voco hotel. Appetizers were great. Tried the zucchini chips (lightly battered and crispy), octopus (well cooked and garnished), and oysters -- I recommend them all. For the main, branzino was cooked really well; accompanied lemon butter sauce was just perfect. The lobster pasta, however, was a bit disappointing. I would skip it next time and try something else. The waitstaff was friendly and attentive, but the hosts lacked warmth. Definitely not the most quiet romantic ambiance; more like loud and hip. Overall, a good addition to the area.

This restaurant is absolutely amazing. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and stylish, and the team is incredibly welcoming. The food is outstanding -- everything tastes fresh, well-balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. One of my favorite things here is the salad: incredibly fresh vegetables, light, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Dishes come out quickly, yet the quality is clearly top-tier. The bartenders deserve a special mention -- always friendly, smiling, and creating great vibes at the bar. Highly recommend. A true gem for modern Greek Mediterranean cuisine.

Greek Salad, Side Chicken, Oven Roasted Potatoes.

A flight delay landed me overnight in Astoria with this restaurant attached to the hotel. The food was incredible!

I celebrated my birthday here last night with my girlfriends and we had the best time. This super cute, beautiful restaurant is tucked below a hotel in Astoria and truly feels like a hidden gem. The ambiance is a 10/10--warm, inviting, cozy, and absolutely gorgeous. It's perfect for a date night, girls' dinner, birthday celebration, or any special occasion. The drinks were excellent. My personal favorite was the Foufou because I love a spicy cocktail . It's made with Casamigos Jalapeño, mango purée, and cilantro--so good! My friends all tried different cocktails from the menu and everyone loved their drinks. We ordered a lot of appetizers since we like sharing and trying a bit of everything, and they were all delicious. Our favorites were the Prasini Salad, the Trio, Tuna Tartare, and the zucchini chips (paper thin, perfectly crispy, and not greasy at all). The Saganaki was great, and we all absolutely loved the Anemi Fetalo--definitely a must-try! For dinner we shared two entrées: the Branzino, which was delicious, and the NY shell steak. On the side we had lemon potatoes and truffle parmesan fries, both were delicious. We went on a Saturday night and the music was great, the atmosphere was lively, and the staff was very friendly. Our waitress was wonderful. It was busy, which is expected on a Saturday night, so just be patient with the servers , they are working hard .... Yet it's worth it! They made my birthday feel really special by bringing out desserts with sparklers, and even surprised us with a round of tequila shots on the house. You can really tell the owner(s) put a lot of thought and vision into this place. What makes it special is how intimate it feels. It's not a huge restaurant, which gives it a cozy, boutique vibe. For a few hours it honestly felt like we were on vacation. Everyone in the restaurant seemed to be having such a great time, lots of birthdays, celebrations, and memories being made. Thank you for such a fun and memorable night. We will definitely be back soon!

We shared Betsy's Mom's Clam Dip, Mushroom Toast, Bitter Greens Salad, Minted Lamb Meatballs, and duck pâté. The meal opened with the clam dip; cool, lush, and briny, with a creamy oceanic richness that coated the palate; followed by a tangy, salty depth that clung to each crunchy bite of bread. The Mushroom Toast followed with deeper savoriness: earthy, almost forest-floor mushrooms, warm and tender, turning silky as they soaked into the bread, while the edges stayed crisp and toasted, adding contrast to the woodsy umami and subtle garlic warmth. The Bitter Greens Salad provided a bright, palate-cleansing break that included crisp and peppery greens with a sharp lemony dressing that snapped on the tongue, layered with faint fennel sweetness and the nutty, salty bite of shaved parmesan. The Minted Lamb Meatballs arrived richer and more comforting, tender and juicy with a gentle gamey depth, lifted by fresh mint that cut through the richness, and a cool, tangy tomato-yogurt sauce that added creaminess and brightness in equal measure. We finished with pâté--silky, dense, and deeply savory, with a faint iron-rich intensity and buttery smoothness, especially when spread on bread with sharp, briny pickles that added crunch and acidity. Each dish felt intentional and well-balanced for sharing, with varied textures and temperatures that built naturally across the table. I'd happily return to explore more of the menu.

Upon arrival, we were greeted at the counter to sit at any table inside or out and a server will help us. The inside is quaint with ample tables and chairs, with display of a commercial professional espresso machine and display of some of their pastries. Decided on outside, we found a table with two chairs and waited for service. Very quickly a young woman greeted us and while we looked at the menu, brought us water with lemon at our request. We end up ordering first two sandwiches, one with prosciutto and the other caprese. We waited to order our coffee drinks and parties afterwards. The sandwiches came quickly and to our surprise the sandwich was warmed which my preference and both were served on ciabatta-like buns that's had textures of foccacia. We loved both sandwiches. We then ordered the Italian donuts with Nutella and the cookies horn with light lemon crème as well as a cortado and latte. Pastries were also warmed and overall satisfied with our choices. I would come back here as I'm in the neighborhood often. Great place to meet a friend with reasonable prices and quality food.

The menu is fairly on the basic side - mainly drinks and pastries and there is some sandwiches. We decided to get the hot chocolate with whip cream (the whip cream is very needed). It was very rich, thick and delicious and not "too sweet." The whip cream really makes it more creamy and it does not really add to the sweetness which was good. We also got a side of Salame e Formaggio which I would recommend passing on because the cheese was kind of hard and not that great. The salami was good and honestly I'm not a fan of olives but my friend who liked it enjoyed them. Overall - a cute place to stop by for a hot chocolate and maybe a pastry!

Wanted to write this review based on the wheelchair accessibility and laptop areas…read more There are coffee shops in the neighborhood with laptop rules that say you have to sit at the high tables. Obviously as a wheelchair user, I cannot sit at the high tables, and when I have asked the staff for understanding, other places have denied me.

The escargot was covered with pesto that tasted like the basil wasn't fresh. Also, I'm sure there was plenty of garlic because the restaurant smelled like it, but I would have liked more garlic in this dish. The meatballs were mostly bread (there may have been some meat). After we complained, the item was removed from our bill by our friendly, polite, and conscientious server. Note: This is a French restaurant, but they didn't have any butter for the bread.

It was incredibly loud, especially by the front, but the inside is very cozy and appreciated that the menu has pictures of every dish. We started with the shishito peppers which were perfectly cooked and seasoned. For mains, we got the octopus and grilled skirt steak which were both phenomenal. The steak was juicy and the fries were perfectly crispy. The mashed potatoes paired so nicely with the octopus which was grilled perfectly. Would definitely come back at a less busy/loud hour!

Though they didn't serve the sprite-infused red wines I enjoyed in Spain, they did serve white sangrias, which were light, sweet, and very enjoyable. The toasted bread with tomatoes was bright and summery. The grilled asparagus was cooked wonderfully al dente, with a char that added a nice smoky flavor against the clean taste of the drizzled olive oil. The beef skewers were well seasoned and fatty. While the food was Spanish, the prices certainly were not! It was a tad pricey. There wasn't anything below $13 for their small bites. Nonetheless, the food was good, the service prompt, and the outdoor vibes quite lovely. I would go there again.
