However, once you walk in, you're escorted through a huge dining space and if you get the chance to dine outside, their patio is stunning. There are so many plants, it's very nice, and there's an outdoor cover over the tables. Service was good. My friend and I got their salmon and pappardelle. The salmon was amazing and the papperdalle was rich and creamy. A bit on the pricey side for the portion sizes, but I can tell that the quality of food was there. If you're around Vernon Blvd looking for some good Italian food, definitely check this spot out!

On to the food, I got the beef steak platter and it was very flavorful! There were 4 - 5 pieces of very thin marinated steak. My only issue was it was quite tough. The yellow rice and bean paste was delicious as well. Included was a salad and either bread or tortilla. I recommend the bread since it was buttered and toasted on the griddle. Was pleasantly surprised with the variety for $13. Staff was pretty friendly even though there was minimal interaction. Mostly just to order and pay for the food. Oh, aside from the toughness of the steak, I just wished there was some more rice and bean paste. The amount of steak was fine. Will definitely come back

For example, the Cafe Con Leche feels water down. It really needs a bit more oomph to be considered a good cup of coffee. The guava pastry was also just a tad off, with its puff pastry being a bit dry and not crispy enough. With that said, the Chorizo was pretty good when hot. This is a decent local Latino coffee and breakfast shop if you are in the neighborhood.

The D & F in the name - is it Dino & Frank? My take from my experience is Delicious & Fantastic!…read more I stayed in Astoria for 4 months last year and probably drove past this deli maybe a couple of dozen times. Never stopped in. I happened to be in the area on Wednesday February 26 and went on Yelp to look for a nice place for hot soup. As I was doing that and in traffic, I looked to my right and saw the sign" Hot Minestrone Soup" in the window! Fate! Destiny! There are no accidents!!! Got parking right in front( metered $ 2 per hour via quarters or cc or NYC app) and walked in to a beautiful, bright & pleasant store. The workers were relaxed and having fun as they were taking care of the customers! Great sign! I got a warm greeting and knew that I wanted that 16 oz Minestrone plus a tuna salad on wheat. The kind gentleman asked if I would like it toasted. Sure! I saw this beautiful jar of sun dried tomatoes just calling out and asked him to put some on the sandwich. The soup was amazing - so fresh, so hot, so good! Loved the ample pasta and veggies in it. The sandwich had a generous amount of tasty tuna salad and the extra mustard with the extra onions made it pop. Loved it. Finished off with a coffee and again - really great team here who despite the line that was 8 deep told me to please wait for 5 minutes so they could brew me a fresh pot. Very nice! They could have blown me off as a new guy who is not a regular. The prices - great! The service - outstanding! The vibe - like home! Seating -4 small two seaters inside. The store and organized shelves - immaculate! Warm and inviting! Everyone was smiling and happy serving up some great, happy and gorgeous fare and drinks. Open 7 days with free delivery within 5 miles ( over $10) and also featuring a lovely catering menu This is Definitely and Firmly a Delicious and Fantastic Italian Deli

The ingredients are fresh although a bit skimpy compared to other Italian delis I've been to. Especially since I removed the ham, I would've expected just a little more of the other meats. The bread unfortunately wasn't fresh which really took away from the experience. Because the bread wasn't soft, the ratio of bread to everything else felt way off. You have to pay extra for any additional toppings which is fine but I was expecting "The Works" as an option for people who like all the toppings. I ended up adding mayo myself which really elevated the sandwich. Good try and friendly staff but definitely not my favorite in Astoria.
