    First time eating in the restaurant. We were seated within 5 minutes. Tables were clean and neatly arranged. Server and waiter were both very nice and polite. The bread was fresh and warm, the fried calamari were so tender and the dipping sauce was absolutely delicious!! The brick oven Margherita pizza was very thin but not flimsy, it was just perfect for my liking. Overall very pleased.

    I order out from Barosa all the time so I know the food is amazing, but when at the restaurant it's all that much better! There is an old school Italian feeling in the restaurant and helps give that authenticity to it. The service is amazing even when the place is packed! The barosa salad is amazing and the meatballs taste like my dad's- they're great! The pasta e fagiole was delicious and perfect for cold weather. The pesto pasta was a special off the menu item and was so good I've dreamt about it since! I also think our other pasta may be a restaurant only item because it's on their menu there but not on the website. It was to die for and had sausage crumbles! The dessert was great and all around a great time finally coming in. I will be back for more!

    Chicken Sorrentino

    My wife and I have been dining here for over 20 years, yet we had no idea they had a downstairs party room. We found out when we attended a wedding. It fits about 60 people, and it was a surprisingly nice experience. The service was so good; no glass remained empty. Very professional and friendly. And the food was just delicious. It was a terrific time.

    Best spot for local Italian. Been going to Barosa for years and the quality is always prime. They always have good specials and the service is always good. In all my years going I never had a bad experience.. Ordered the veal polenta with spaghetti carbonara. So good. Apps of calamari and baked clams were delicious. No matter what you order in this place your Italian food fantasies will come true. Entrees also ordered were chicken sorrentino veal marsala, chicken parm, and the maple pork chop special. The place was packed. Everyone left with full bellies enjoying the experience. Barosa is where it's at.

    I heard this place was suppose to be good! I have never eaten here and tried it for the first time because I moved into the neighborhood. Ordered 2 slices to go. When I got home the pizza was already cold. Mind you I live across the street. It also tasted like old pizza. The crust was super chewy. Did not finish it at all. It's a shame because I heard good things. I don't know if I'll be back here again. If I do it will not be too soon.

    Fantastic. I've been to a lot of Italian restaurants in NY and LA. The quality and atmosphere at Barosa tops them all. Food was prepared to perfection. My friend, who is Italian from Chicago, says it's the best he has ever had. I couldn't agree more. The ambiance & music set the mood for an incredible night of fine dining. Close to Citifield. If you are ever at a game, come before or leave the game early. Don't miss out.

    Shrimp Scampi.

    Meh. Nothing to write home about in my opinion, but I'd give Barosa between a 3 and 3.5 - probably closer to a 3.5. We were a group of seven people and ordered fried calamari, meatballs, chicken franches, shrimp scampi, chicken piccata and a few of the specials. My dish was the shrimp scampi - it had flavor but there was nothing making it a memorable meal. For dessert, we ordered a tartufo and tiramisu along with a few coffee's and cappuccino's. The cappuccino was tastier than I expected it to be. Prices were rather fair, presentation was basic, service was fine, the atmosphere was average and the food was okay. So you see, there wasn't anything bad about the meal, just no single wow factor and that's okay. There are a lot of restaurants throughout the boroughs giving Barosa a cozy spot in the dime a dozen category.

    Grandma's Meatballs

    Went for date night on a Tuesday evening. It was busy but we were seated right away. Staff was nice. Our waiter helped us make decisions based on what we were looking for. We ordered the egg roll(not pictured) and the grandmas meatball for appetizers. The appetizers honestly were disappointing. We couldn't even finish the egg roll and the meatballs while edible, were bland. However, the main entrees were the real deal! We ordered two glasses of wine and got the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the chicken parm with vodka sauce. The chicken parm vodka is not on the menu but you can ask them to make it and highly recommended! The atmosphere was pleasant as there was a singer in the middle while we were eating. Overall great experience Plenty of parking but muni-meter

    Seafood Avocado
    Lesley O.

    I have been hearing really good things about Barosa so decided to give it a try myself and was pleased with what I ordered. I had the eggplant rollatini and the seafood avocado appetizers and enjoyed both, but the seafood avocado was unique and definitely the star of my order. An avocado on top of mixed greens topped with chopped lobster and shrimp with mayonnaise and a balsamic glaze is not something I have ever seen on a menu at an Italian restaurant, but I am so glad it was because it was delicious. The eggplant rollatini was also enjoyable because the eggplant was sliced thinly and had the perfect ratio of ricotta and mozzarella but the only thing I would have preferred was for the tomato sauce to be just a tad sweeter because it was a bit tart/acidy for my personal liking. I definitely will be ordering more and look forward to having the seafood avocado again.

    Pizza and pasta are great! Service and food are always good whether we order in or take out. Baked clams and calamari are always tasty.

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 8…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 8 Overall: 8 I still remember back in the early 90's when there would be long lines outside Nick's every Wednesday before they opened because everyone wanted the buy one get one free deal. This was one of the best new pizzerias in NYC, opening to great accolades from various publications. Being a poor kid in Junior High School working for a mere $3.75/hr across the street at the corner Baskin Robins (RIP) did not give me the opportunity for quite some time. Anyway, fast forward 5 years and I finally had the chance with a few friends to experience what many called the best pizza in Queens, and I was very impressed. This became my regular "fancy" pizza shop of choice. What I loved most about it was the crispy and charred thin crust. It adds so much to the overall taste and enjoyment. The sauce was deliciously tangy and the fresh mozzarella made it a level above everything else in the neighborhood. One word of warning, the pizza could get a little soggy in the center if too many toppings are ordered. I usually choose none or no more than two. Also noteworthy is their yummy calzones. My personal favorite combination is sausage and spinach. Mixed with all that oozing ricotta and dipped in some tomato sauce, that is one great bite. Lastly, I like most of their salads too. Their food has been a staple in my diet for most of my adult life. Decades go by, and out of nowhere, I hear the news that Nick's had burned down. What a loss for our community! What a loss personally! Thankfully, they are back and feeling every bit like the original. Food is as good as before, while the decor and service has always been on point. Though not my favorite pizza in NYC, or even Queens, it does hold a spot in my rotation.

Been going to Nicks for years, before and after their renovation. The must get here are the large pies with any favorite topping. As the toppings are all fresh high quality ingredients. We love the sausage, meatball, mushroom, and spinach pie. Crisp chewy crust with a nice char. It's great that it isn't soggy with the spinach as other places have failed at. You can't go wrong with the pies here they are wonderful and deliscious. End the meal with a cannoli as the pistachio and filling make for a nice cannoli with a shell that reminds us of a ice cream cone. Nicks a place i'll go to again and again with wonderful folks working there.

I didn't see prices for slices (but maybe native NY'ers know you can order by the slice I saw a lot of people with slices only) so we ordered a whole "pie". They were very nice about letting us order something off menu (pepperoni and mushroom) and half sautéed veggies. You order at the counter and then wait for the pizza to be brought to you. It's a chill place with a couple of tables. The pizza was piping hot and I didn't even know I burned the roof of my mouth until after I was satiated from the pizza! The cheese pull on the pepperoni mushroom was great. The cheese was obviously fresh cuz of the pull without having to load on tons of cheese . It was very well balanced. The red sauce was sweet (is this a NY thing?) but I didn't mind it. If you want a pizza with great cheese pull. Go here! But you have to eat it while it's HOT. The sautéed veggies pizza was surprisingly good. I say surprisingly cuz I am not a veggie fan in general but it was good enough for me to enjoy eating the entire slice! Great pizza! Next time I want to try the grandma slice to see what the difference is from a regular slice.

For appetizers, we ordered the fried calamari and the baked clams. I absolutely love their baked clams -- I don't eat them from anywhere else. What I appreciate most is that their clams don't have that strong "ocean" taste; they're seasoned perfectly. Their sangria is also the BEST. I had the white sangria, which was delicious, and my husband and dad ordered the red, which they really enjoyed. For the main entrées, I had the shrimp scampi, my husband had the penne alla vodka, and my dad ordered spaghetti with garlic and oil with a side of broccoli. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. The vodka sauce was creamy and tasted homemade. My daughter ordered a personal pan pepperoni pizza and loved it. The service was excellent--our server was really polite, knowledgeable about the menu, and checked on us often. I also love the atmosphere: when you walk in, it feels like a classic pizzeria, but once you head to the back, it transforms into a cozy fine-dining space. The lighting is perfect, and the music is just the right volume. The last time I visited was over four years ago, and I'm happy to say the food and drinks still taste just as good as I remembered. Overall, it was an amazing experience for my dad's birthday, and we'll definitely be back again.
