We placed various orders. The food was good. I rate it a 4. The server we had was a little dry, rate her a 2.5. She wasnt friendly or engaging, she was very much hurry up and buy! I get it, its almost closing time, but a smile goes a long way. The 5 stars is for the owner! When I tell you he is what a small business thrives off of, he should teach many others. He sat down, he engaged, and accommodated us and my late guests. His energy is everything! 10/10 recommend when in NY!!!

The food was flavorful and well-prepared, although some dishes leaned a bit salty for my taste. I ordered the sautéed shrimp and grits. The shrimp were delicious, but I wish the dish came with a larger portion of grits. The gravy was very generous and ended up making the dish a bit soupy, so a little more grits would have helped balance the dish. Other highlights from our table included the fried shrimp and waffles, yams, and mac and cheese, all of which were excellent. Another guest in my party ordered the BBQ salmon and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. The ambiance is casual, comfortable, and inviting, making it a great spot for either a local brunch or a relaxed dinner. The service was attentive and pleasant throughout our visit. We were even greeted by the owner upon arrival, and his friendliness and hospitality immediately made us feel welcome and set a positive tone for the entire experience. Overall, this is a solid neighborhood restaurant with good food, a welcoming atmosphere, and excellent customer service. I'd definitely return to try more items from the menu.

But if you go around 12/1 PM you're guaranteed to get what you want from the menu for that day. The staff is very friendly, especially Mr. Vince and they are priced really well! The most I've paid for a meal is $7, but of course that can go up or down depending on how much you order. I highly recommend the fried chicken here. Very moist, seasoned, crispy and far from oily! The veggies are typically seasonal. Spinach here is pretty great though. Other items you can find here are meatloaf, mac and cheese, hot wings, and various rice. For me it's conveniently located, and has become sort of my go to place. They also provide catering services. Highly recommended!

Although they don't add acv to their greens, I found the greens to be flavorful. I also ordered a slice of pineapple coconut cake. I will come here again and the service was out standing.

Everything came up to $16.88. The place is bright and clean. Food was good and seasoned well. My gripes are they served a person with no mask on. Had I not come so far I would have turned around. Also, I only got 1 one part of the wing with my dinner. I feel like the whole wing should be included which I expressed. Other than that I had previously spoken with one of the owners (wife) telling her my intentions to visit and she was really sweet and inviting. I will be back to try more items and hopefully add a star! Sorry forgot the menu pic.

Special shoutout to Krystal at the bar--she was doing EVERYTHING. Bartending and serving tables at the same time, and still made sure everyone was taken care of. You can tell she really works hard and keeps the place running smooth. The food... definitely hit the spot. I had the fried chicken with cabbage and also tried the fried fish with fries. Everything was seasoned well, fresh, and came out hot. That fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy inside, just how it's supposed to be. The cabbage had great flavor too--not bland at all. The vibe is chill.. I'll definitely be back and would recommend it if you're in Queens and craving some comfort food

THIS REVIEW IS SOLELY FOR THE UBER EATS DELIVERY PORTION**7/24…read more I ordered a large amount of fish and French fries. I know you are reading to find how the fish was, because the reviews on Maxine's on the Boulevard have really good ratings. Well, I can't tell you how the fish and fries were, because I used the Uber Eats app to order my food and I never received the food, even though the order shows complete in the app. I gave specific instructions and I even provided my telephone number so that the driver could call if he had problems, because delivery drivers will drop your food anywhere, IN MY EXPERIENCE! I gave a 20% tip as well. I called Maxine's on the Boulevard, and they say the order is out, if you have a problem call Uber Eats. I went downstairs to the salon, and they did not receive an order. One worker said that the guy was waiting for 14 minutes and no one showed up. Let me tell why the driver waited, he never followed the instructions. The delivery was a standard delivery because when you pay more the delivery doesn't arrive any faster. The order was made at 3:18 and with a 40-minute delivery window or at 4:00 pm. The app showed an ETA of 4pm. The driver arrives early and stood outside, not bothering to call the number provided. I will go as far as to say, maybe I did not hear the new delivery window alert. Why did he stand at the salon and not come to the apartment build? I remember that I used to delivery Uber Eats and I went to Red Lobster, delivered the food, told the customer to check the order before I leave. There was a problem. I drove back to Red Lobster to retrieve the missing lobster tail. Red Lobster said that they were closed, long story short, I drove back to the customer, lobster tail in-tow. I was not going to leave without the customer's missing item. I was representing a company, so I did what I had to do to make sure that the customer was satisfied. Not bragging but you don't get that service nowadays, some workers are unconcerned whether you get what you pay for or not. Do you know that I was salivating for this delicious fish and savory French fries, Crinkled cut at that! Frish on a Friday, you can't go wrong unless you do as I did and use Uber Eats. I am too hangry at the moment... Inspire more, Yelp more!

This is a buffet style set up and there is limited high top seating for dine-in. There are concerns about open buffet settings but one issue that this restaurant defeated would be cross contamination. I give ovation when I see the hand sanitizers that are set out for use before dipping from the buffet and you must use plastic gloves that are set out for use when touching utensils. Staff monitoring is another issue that I observed them performing every time that I entered. Temperature control can be questioned if you are dining in. Food safety is another to be observed. The buffet offers so many delicious dishes and a huge salad bar. They do serve breakfast items such as dumplings boiled or fried, green banana, yams, and salt fish just to name a few. They have salmon, Quiona, Chicken, oxtails, fritters, delicious vegetable dishes. I even saw curried chicken feet. Not that I would be eating them because mom and dad never served us this dish growing up and I am not about to add this dish to my palate at my age. I am not knocking it but whatever floats your boat. I am pretty sure you may find something you like and they make smoothies. I have tried the salmon on two occasions, and I question the food safety on this dish. I find that the salmon was not to my liking as it may have not been fresh on occasion and or it taste overcooked it was hard to cut let alone chew. The vegetables taste great. I would like to have Quiona, but chef community seem to think that everyone appreciates corn in their food. I will go back to try something other than breakfast or salmon. So happy eating and ....

I made a mistake of ordering all fish it was 9 to 10 pieces and eight of them were inedible and I wound up throwing them away and the odds of me going here again are very very unlikely. Very sad. I wanted to like this place so much like I used to in the past but now I just wasted my money apparently it depends on which cook is there. The young one makes the fish too hard. The older person makes the fish normally so if I do go here again, I'll make sure if the cook that I want, but I'm certainly you're not gonna waste my money again.
