Having tried their outstanding burger the last three times there, I opted for their Buffalo wings…read morelast night. They are the best wings I've ever had in Riverdale, Inwood or Washington Heights. I can't quite figure out why other places always seem to be missing something when it comes to how they make their wing--but not Blackstone! I ordered the wings to go and while waiting, I had their Blackstone tap beer which will be the only beer I will drink there because it was surprisingly good--and I'm usually not one for tap beer. No longer Heineken, Corona, Amstel, etc.--I'll go with this delightful beer. The staff is ALWAYS very engaging and professional. I will be going there a lot more!

We have gone here several times. My parents know the owners from another restaurant his father used…read moreto own. They love the hamburgers and my dad really likes the fried chicken nuggets or tenders with French fries. The service is always pretty good. Last week I went in there and as always the food was good and service was pretty good but since I have problems with my back I can't sit on the bar stools. Its not their fault that I cant sit up there bur I wish they has more tables with backing on chairs that would make it 5 stars. otherwise the food is fantastic

We had a fabulous lunch today at the Pine Restaurant and couldn't have been happier with the…read moreexperience. Our waiter, Ramon M., was exceptional--warm, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout. His recommendation for my entrée was spot on. I had dined here once before for a busy Saturday night dinner, so it was especially nice to experience a quieter, more relaxed lunch this time around--a completely different vibe, but just as enjoyable. We skipped the complimentary bread and ordered the garlic bread instead--absolutely worth it. Warm, flavorful, and truly delicious. For appetizers, my husband had the arancini rice balls, while I ordered the artichoke hearts oreganato. Both were excellent--well-prepared, flavorful, and satisfying. For mains, I followed Ramon's suggestion and went with the sole Francese, paired with a side of linguine in garlic and oil. The fish was incredibly tender, fresh, and absolutely flavorful--cooked perfectly. In fact, as I'm writing this review, I'm still thinking about it and already looking forward to coming back to have it again. My husband's rigatoni filetto di pomodoro was equally impressive--simple, classic, and full of flavor. Even though we were completely full--and had leftovers to take home--we couldn't resist dessert. The tiramisu was the perfect ending: light, balanced, and just the right touch of sweetness. Great food, beautiful weather, and a relaxed atmosphere made for a perfect afternoon. A spot that's just as enjoyable for a lively dinner as it is for a relaxed lunch.

Oh The Pine! I was introduced to this spot by a friend for…read moremy Birthday dinner. I must say the service was spectacular the minute I walked into this beautiful restaurant. First of all they bring out this freshly baked loaf of warm bread with butter that's perfect to start with. Then I had a chicken and pasta dish that was so delicious. I keep going for the dish. It's that good. Amazing. And I finished off with their crème brûlée. The service was nothing short of stellar. The wait staff was attentive and accommodating. Didn't miss a beat. Very nice crew. The venue itself is beautiful. Very nice decor. Spacious, clean. Not obnoxious but still classy. I personally like sitting at the bar with the coolest Bar tender "Kel". Very nice fella. So if you're looking for a great spot for delicious Italian cuisine you should definitely hit the Pine! You won't be disappointed! Oh.. They have Valet parking too for your convenience. Alright yall! Have a great day now! -Ray

The service was also top tier. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time, which I really appreciated for a special occasion. As for the food, it was just okay. My steak had a bit more fat than I would've liked, and while it was still decent, it didn't fully meet my expectations. The drinks were on the sweeter side, which may be a plus for some, but weren't really my preference. My friends and family felt pretty similar--everyone said their food was okay, nothing bad, but nothing that really stood out. Overall, it's a cute spot with great service, but the food could definitely be better. I'd still consider going back for the vibe and maybe trying different menu items.
