So I've been wanting to visit this location for quite some time now. I came early as soon as they…read moreopened. It's a cute little basement bar with some tables along with a bar top to sit and a cozy little area in the back to sit at if you're with a couple of friends wanting to celebrate something or just to hangout. You see to my surprise they told me they no longer serve sushi and that they changed the whole concept of the place and the menu. I was a little disappointed but I decided I was there already so I would work with what they had to offer. I saw they had a decent happy hour menu, but I decided to order a drink that was not on the Happy Hour menu. Their version of a Lychee Martini. It was strong and flavorful, but very refreshing. For my tapas options I went with some Arancini and Zucchini flowers. I didn't want too much to eat after having such a huge breakfast. The arancini was flavorless but really good with the marinara sauce it came with, and to my surprise the zucchini flowers were amazing. It was piping hot, crispy with the most intense cheese pull, served with some spicy sauce and marinara as well. I went back and forth with dipping them into each condiment. I told the guy who took my order and served me that they should bottle that marinara, it was delicious. I don't know how this place use to be but I'm interested in returning for another visit because I was definitely feeling the whole vibe of the place along with the food. I think it might be a good place to visit for the whole Happy Hour of it all. Thumbs up and Happy Yelping!

Growing up, our family used to alternate different Chinese takeout spots in the neighborhood - but…read morethe one that was most consistently on our radar was Mr. Q's. While the quality has gone through highs and lows over the years, they have recently been the most consistent spot in the neighborhood - and as such become the sole place I order Chinese from when in the Bronx. At face value, what sets Mr. Q's apart from other Chinese spots in the area is the fact that they offer a full sit-down restaurant in addition to their takeout. The dining room is a decent size and tastefully decorated. Parking can be tough as it's on a busy main road, but I have always eventually found a spot. While the quality of food has been up and down over the years, more recently I feel it's been consistently good. It's not overly greasy, and the ingredients tasted relatively fresh and high quality. The staff is also super friendly, and whenever I order delivery it arrives super fast. Overall, Mr. Q's has held up IMO as being one of the top Chinese food spots in the neighborhood. Whenever I'm in the Bronx craving Chinese, I will always choose here to go.

I'm a big fan of Thai food, so for a long time I would only eat Thai food in Manhattan as I…read morecouldn't find any good places to buy it in the Bronx. When I found Honey Thai Pavilion, I was ecstatic. It soon became my favorite place in the Bronx to have Thai food. If you're as passionate about Thai cuisine as I am, you'll appreciate the wide selection this restaurant has to offer, which includes noodles, seafood, and more! The spicy prik king with chicken which is served with white rice is my particular favorite dish; it's delicious and authentic. This dish can be made as spicy as you like. I also got a few shareable items for the table, shrimp in a blanket, satay chicken skewers and steamed dumplings! Additionally, they serve freshly made pad thai, which has a ton of flavor and really soft noodles and succulent meat. The pad see ew is another great option; the vegetables are fresh and the noodles are usually good! It gets better: a lunch menu is available for $10.50, with generous portions. This is a fantastic way to sample several foods from the menu; it allows you to take a risk without committing entirely, which is ideal if you're looking to step outside of your comfort zone! The 6 line and the subway are only a 5-minute walk away from this site. One thing to bear in mind is that parking can require you to drive around the block once or twice, but as it's a residential neighborhood, there ought to be spots available. One of the restaurant's excellent aspects is that you don't need reservations. It also offers a laid-back atmosphere, nice and helpful staff, and a decent wine selection. They even offered me a complimentary order of spring rolls and a generous pore of wine.

I've been coming here to support this local business for many years. It is such a nice place to…read morehave near to me and they have really exceptional flavors. A few years back for a while, they were REALLY going through something where the food just wasn't the same and service was lacking badly. It was like they lost their original chef and didn't have staff to take care of patrons. It was heartbreaking and I had to take a break because I couldn't justify visiting a place that I was so proud of to have in my neighborhood in these conditions. I am very happy to say that they are back and better than ever. The meals are back to being tasty and I've even tried a few newer things after regaining some confidence that they would make it taste good. I do notice that some of the reviews in the past 2-3 years touch on the period when they were really struggling but I would advise those people to go back and try them out again. The pandemic change a lot of things but it is up to the community to keep these 'mom and pop' places alive. They are important to the neighborhood and its always nice to have a place to recommend any visitors or to take guests. I provided a 4 star review because it seems like they may still struggle to employ staff for service and frankly the newer ones that I have had are not doing so great. (Maybe they are still training) A table near us wanted to get cocktails (They have a full bar now ) and the waitress said that she texted the bartender to come but she's waiting for a babysitter ? this was around 7:30 pm and they close pretty soon after that so that was really confusing. I didn't understand why the staff member couldn't look at the ingredients and make the patrons the drink. I started coming back regularly recently and this last visit I placed my order and realized that they waitress wasn't writing any of it down. She had all this confidence and when my food came out (not all together ) it was wrong, not once but twice. I was mortified to send two things back into the kitchen but I really didn't want what they served me. There was apologies and they took the food and the kitchen rectified the order but this didn't need to happen and the restaurant didn't have to loose money based on lack of training. The review and stars are solely based on the FOOD! Keep up the good work-- the kitchen is doing great but try and figure out the staffing issue/training. Until this happens don't expect amazing service ( unless its the owner working the floor-- she's amazing). If you can get passed the service issues, order take out. It's worth it! Recommend: Veggie Pad Kee Mao- always full of fresh veggies Steamed Broccoli- cooked perfectly and crunchy Beef Larb- excellent Thai beef salad

This restaurant was a cute and fun time to the community of Riverdale…read more I went here with my father and sister for a family dinner on a Sunday night. The place is smaller, but because of the great weather, we were able to sit outside. Service was okay. It took a while to get our order in and to get water to the table. Then, our appetizer came out and a few mins later, our mains came out, so it felt back to back. Nonetheless, the food was good. In terms of pricing, I thought it was on the higher media price of food in the area, but thought it was delicious nonetheless. I had ordered sushi rice cakes and also got a chicken teriyaki. Other dishes that we had gotten included a garlic shrimp and one of the Dominican rolls, the De Lo Mio Rolls. We all enjoyed our food. Only note that I'll give is that we got the main combination courses for the garlic shrimp and the chicken teriyaki. My dad wanted to sub out the rice for plantains, but ended up not getting the miso soup and we were charged for a whole side of plantains. Wish we could've been told that it wasn't a 1:1 substitution.

Ps: they are related to the mamasushi brand, which i found out later when one of the owners showed up on a fancy Mercedes Benz. The food was not even decent. We ordered 4 sushi rolls. 2 made "dominican" and 2 normal. The taste was on point but the rice was already getting hard when brought to the table. We also ordered 2 ramen but felt it was microwave ramen and it came cold. Now rewind. When we arrived, there was 1 table inside and 1 outside available. There was a couple ahead of us so I asked if we could sit outside as I was with the fam. The young girl just nodded and left. I looked to see if she was coming back to wipe the table clean but no.. I had to go get her. Then we sat and time passed and nobody came, so I got up and another server came to take our order and apologized for the delay. After placing the order, guess what happened to the food. It took so long that when it came it came cold and we didnt want to send it back. Another table sat next to us and the same experience happened and they asked to move inside as nobody was really taking care of anyone outside. Mind you, one of the owners was there. I eat ramen constantly and this was subpar, I eat decent food but this was bodega sushi at best. I was hoping for a great experience but it just reiterated what we suspected, service was going to be sh1t and it showed. I can't support local and minority own when I feel im not treated with respect. They get 2, as the sushi taste was good but hard rice is not something I would come back for. You can do better. Ps: all these inta post are paid service, fyi

We WERE frequent customers at Palace but after today's experience, we will never be back. This was…read morea take out experience gone completely wrong and the restaurant staff refused to let us speak with a manager, after several phone calls throughout the day! I ordered a vegetarian bento box with BAKED EGGPLANT. What came in my bento box was eggplant DRIPPING in oil. Unedible. They did replace my order because there was no denying that the eggplant was hideous and not one bit baked. Obviously deep fried and deep fried poorly. They sent tofu teriyaki instead and the tofu reaked of stale frying oil. The rest of my bento box reflected totally poor quality food: broccoli past its prime, dumplings completely stuck together and mushy. The vegetarian sushi roll was ok as was the white rice. But you have to work pretty diligently to mess those up. Honestly, most of the Bento box went into the trash. My wife ate my vegetarian roll because I simply had no appetite left. We won't be ordering from Palace ever again after this. They really don't know how to deal with dissatisfied customers, blaming US for complaining too much! We'll simply go across the street to their competitor and maybe pay a little more for food that's worth the money!

I followed a social media trend that suggested the best restaurants have a 3.5 rating, as sometimes…read morepeople rate the service and not the food. This trend did not hold true for this restaurant. The food was flavorless. The only thing that contained some flavor was the salad dressing on what they passed off as a salad. Now onto the ambiance/service. The chef prepared our food without the fanfare you would normally expect at a hibachi station. It was literally similar to sitting at a lunch counter watching a short order cook prepare our meal. The hostess who served our drinks and collected our payment appeared irritated the entire time. As others indicated the price was higher as they charge extra for hibachi rice and a service fee is included for a party of two. However, the poor flavorless food, boring hibachi show coupled with subpar service is the reason for the one star rating.

One bite had me mentally sitting on a beach in the Dominican Republic with the ocean breeze hitting me. That fish took me somewhere for a second. The pork belly was another 9/10 -- absolutely loved it. The wings were a solid 7.5/10, very sweet but still really good. Drinks were solid too. The passion fruit drink was an 8.5/10 and super refreshing. My other drink gets a 7.5/10 -- the presentation and cup were amazing, but the actual drink didn't hit quite as hard as it looked. Mofongo dumplings not my favorite 5/10. Overall, great food, massive portions, and definitely a spot worth checking out. The fish and pork belly are what I'm coming back for.

They drank the sodas and i still didnt have my drink. 4.- We could not order appetizers or food until drinks came.. i was wtf is this? 5.- We finally placed the order after my drink came. 3 appetizers and 1 full plate. 1 appetizer came and the server was, how was the food.. i said what food. She went back to check as at this point is kind of obvious they dont talk to each other. 6.- Appetizers came, but we had 0 plates or forks and guess what, we had to ask for them. 2 times to different people there. 7.- Finally, food is out. The Octopus was great and the side it comes was also really good. The Shrimp canastas, we ok. Barely any flavor but not bad. Steamed red snapper looked good but was bland. Still had too many scales which to me its a sign of rushing to serve this. I dont know why as it took so long to get the food. 8.- decided to ask for beer instead and to another person. I was not going to ruin my night. Overall clean and nice location but they need to fix their service and food. I will update the review if o ever come back They can do so much better if they would just organize the staff.
