    I want to start off by saying that I love the food here, every time I come back and order different…read morethings, it always hits the spot. However, when I went recently, the service was absolutely horrible. I waited around 10-15 minutes before being acknowledged to just be seated which I thought was outrageous because there were only 3 tables at the moment. Once they seated me, they seated my nieces and I right next to the door when there were many tables still open inside the store. I understand that there were adults drinking within the store however this was one of the coldest days this winter and having kids right next to the door was a little irritating. Putting that aside, after I was seated, I did have to wait for one more person at my table so it was okay that I was never approached for my order to be taken (even though I was ready). But once the last person from my party arrived, we still waited a decent 20-25 minutes before our server asked us if we were ready to order! My sister and I were even already discussing leaving and trying other options for dinner because we saw the server only attending to the other tables or just on her phone. I understand being understaffed and I understand being busy but nothing of that matter was what was causing this lack of attentiveness. Overall, the service was absolutely not what it use to be. I do not think I will be back regardless of how much I do love their food.

    I was at this pretty far away restaurant (at least from my normal neighborhood) with a group a…read morewhile ago as most of the people had never had pocha/포차 style food before. The lighting was dim as expected for a bar/gastropub and the woman serving us was friendly dealing with our group as best as she could. I presume the majority of people here are to drink and have anju but I was the only drinker of the night having a Terra which is a light lager. There was a large one and a smaller one and I had a large which worked with the food and I think it was around $10 or so. The first thing that arrived was the Sausage & Rice Cake Skewer in Sweet Spicy Sauce/So-tteok So-tteok/소떡소떡 which is $7 for 2 pieces. I've had this prior and it was good here. The rice cakes/tteok had a good texture with a bit of a crisp which was nice with the slightly sweet sausage. The sauce had a slight spiciness to them and paired nicely as always. The Fried Jokbal/족발/Pig Feet With Scallion Salad for $18 was very good. Said jokbal had a good mix of fat to meat with a good crunch on the outside and there were plenty of pieces to share. The scallion salad had I believe some gochujang on it or something similar. Favorite of the smaller plates was the Stir-fried Beef Belly/Chadolbagi/차돌박이 With Bean Sprouts for $22. The meat was very tender and flavorful with the sprouts cooked down well. There was also some raw vegetables on top covered with some dried chili seeds which added a nice spice and pop. I would recommend this also. The Rose Sauce Spicy Rice Cakes/Rosé Tteokbokki/로제 떡볶이 for $16 which is also available for $2 more with cheese was pretty tasty. It had a mildly creamy sauce, bacon & some pieces of Gimmari/김말이 fried seaweed rolls which was a nice touch. The rice cakes had a pretty good texture though I would have preferred it a bit spicier but I expected the slightly mild sauce due to the rosé variety. This was fine with a pretty good sized portion. The Kimchi Fried Rice/Kimchi-bokkeumbap/김치볶음밥 With Egg & Cheese In Sizzling Plate for $15 was a bit below average. The kimchi flavor wasn't nearly as strong as I would have liked with it being mostly eggy and I found that it was cooked better at some other spots. I have preferred versions much more at many other Korean spots even in Manhattan's KTown like Five Senses for instance among others. The Kimchi Pancake/Kimchijeon/김치전 for $13 was below average outside of the price point (at least compared to Manhattan Koreatown but that is probably different in Murray Hill.) The kimchi flavor like in the fried rice was a bit muted and it didn't have as much of a crisp I like at the ends. I wouldn't recommend it much. While I could not have it due to a severe cephalopod allergy, the rest of the people disliked the Spicy Stir-Fried Octopus/Nakji-Bokkeum/낙지볶음 for $22. I tried a bit of the sauce which was nice and spicy but apparently the octopus itself was very chewy (it did look overcooked.) Our final plate was from their specialties which was the Pork Baby Back Ribs in Sweet Spicy Sauce Served With Udon and Mozzarella/Maeun Dwaeji Galbijjim/돼지등갈비 철판 for $45. As per the price, the plate was massive with several large very tender pork ribs which had a nice mix of sweetness and spiciness though I do wish they were a little bit spicier though if I recall correctly, someone had asked him to tone it down a bit. This came with more gimmari as well and my favorite part was when the sauce and meat juices had cooked down and burnt slightly as it added a nice touch. If we didn't get the bokkeumbap before, I likely would have preferred the fried rice with the rest of this instead. This was a pretty good though inconsistent Korean meal. Oddly, the kimchi based dishes were the weakest thing here and stuff in general felt a bit lighter than most pocha I have been to. We have a couple tasty dishes and I might go back but it is more likely that if I go to this far off neighborhood again, I would go somewhere else instead.

They perfectly combine tender and flavorful meats with hot pressed bread. Service: 5/5 The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in. They checked in at all the right times without being overbearing, kept drinks filled, and made sure everything came out smoothly. Ambiance: 5/5 Press 195 has a cozy, laid-back neighborhood vibe. The space feels warm and inviting, with exposed brick, wood accents, and a casual bar area that makes it feel like a local pub without feeling too loud. The atmosphere feels comfortable, like a go-to spot you can visit any night of the week.

    It's been six years since I last came here. The food is still pretty good and the service was…read morefriendly, but overall I found the sandwiches a bit overpriced. The menu has very detailed, almost elevated descriptions that make everything sound spectacular, but in practice the flavors don't quite come through, especially the sauces, which are barely noticeable. Our server was flexible when we asked to swap the potato chips for fries on the kids' grilled cheese meal, which we appreciated. However, we were then charged $1.40 for a side of ranch for the fries. I understand they have a range of specialty sauces and dips that are clearly priced on the menu, but that still felt steep for ranch. They also offer a combo option to add fries for $5, but the portion doesn't really feel aligned with the price. The steak sandwich itself was surprisingly tender, even though it looked like it might be tough. That said, I couldn't taste the roasted red pepper sauce, and the "sweet onion jam" turned out to just be caramelized onions. My mother actually ended up picking them out because she doesn't eat onions. (she won't eat onions that she can see) The buffalo cauliflower was tasty, but could have been crispier. The "serves two" description also felt a bit generous given the small portion. I also ordered a brisket sandwich to go with fries. The coleslaw sounded great on the menu, but in reality the flavors didn't stand out, no real hint of jalapeño, just a fairly standard slaw. Overall, the food descriptions felt more impressive than the actual execution, though the to-go fries portion was more generous, which was a nice surprise. Would I go back? I'm not sure. Maybe for a casual visit with a few beers and fries with an assortment of dipping sauces...I am a sucker for those.

I can't say enough good things about this Bayside location, just wish took more pictures but too busy rooting for our NBA CHAMPS KNICKS. Next visit is definitely for their happy hour M-F 3-6.

It's also one of InKind's partner restaurants, so we get 35% back, which is a nice bonus. I really like the atmosphere here. The restaurant is spacious, comfortable, and great for groups. We ordered the seafood boil with crab legs and shrimp, which came with potatoes in a garlic butter sauce with mild spice. It was very flavorful and delicious. We also ordered two servings of wings from the happy hour menu. At $6 for 2 wings, the price is reasonable, and the soy garlic flavor was tasty. The cocktail prices during happy hour are also a good deal. I tried the mango margarita, but it tasted more like a mocktail and I could barely taste any alcohol. My only disappointment was that the wings arrived at the same time as the seafood boil and were only lukewarm instead of hot. The food still tasted good, but it would have been much better if it had been served fresh and hot. Overall, a fun spot with a great atmosphere, friendly service, and good happy hour deals. Oh, and I can't believe I almost forgot to mention the free, delicious popcorn with a kick of spice!

    A cute spacious cafe in Flushing, a short walk from the Main Street station. The furniture and…read morelighting are curated-well, centered on earthy tones & highlighting the contrast of concrete grays & soft yellow light. It is reminiscent of the design behind the trendiest cafes of Kuala Lumpur. The noise level is great if you want a quieter environment to focus and want 2010s pop music in the background. Most people on a weekend afternoon are here working. From a practical standpoint, the tables are higher than what, so get ready to sit real upright if you're going to do work here. *Seasonal caramelized banana matcha latte: 2/5. the banana flavor does not come through and texturally odd to have semi-hard banana solids at the bottom of the drink. *Molly sea salt latte: has both jasmine tea and espresso over milk, topped with a salty cold foam. 3.5/5. The jasmine is the most prominent flavor. I think this drink might benefit from less milk, so that the espresso can still come through.

There were lots of people sitting with their drinks, doing work, or just catching up with friends. I was able to get a small table and ordered a Pistachio Latte, which was perfectly not too sweet. My friends tried the HK sandwich and madeleines, which were just okay. I'd come back again to try their other drinks but probably not their food. Pistachio Latte 9/10 HK Style Sandwich 6/10 Madeleines 6/10 - Too thick and cakey for my liking. It tasted more like a dense cake than a light madeleine.
