The Ambush
AJ L.

I came here for dinner and was very pleasantly surprised. We presented the spicy Hudson Chili wings to begin with and they were super delicious. Even if you don't like spicy, they are pretty tame with a little kick. Very well cooked. I got the ambush for dinner which is essentially a bacon cheese burger with a side of mac n cheese. Everything was super yummy and super flavorful. It coulda had slightly more salt but that's fine. Service was great. Our waitress was friendly and checked up on us to see how everything was. The place itself has cool theming and really nice. I'm glad I stumbled upon this place. Would absolutely come back.

Chicken Parm & pizza!

I like the late night food here- I've ordered chicken Parm twice, and it's always hot and fresh. Cocktails, I'd prefer elsewhere-

There hanger steak was cooked perfectly medium. To my liking. We sat at the bar and also ordered the Brussel sprouts w/ Mashed potatoes on da side ! The Macaroni and cheese is good also ! The bar area is a u-shape design! And there ambience is a wave of pictures on the walls . The have a good $10 cheeseburger midday till 2 pm . The seating at the bar can also be tight . At times

Burger and fries

Great bar! Came on a Friday night. Live music that sounded great. Food was delicious and drinks were great! I'd highly recommend the nachos - the queso on them was fire. Also recommend the fries with gravy and cheese. Huge portion and soooo good. Our waitress was a little slow with drinks, but it was a good experience overall.

. This place is great! it has an extensive selection of solid beers and delectable bar food. What sets it apart is the variety it offers, including an all-day brunch, variety of tacos, and a mix-and-match sliders option that caters to pretty much anyone's tastes . The staff is not only friendly but also attentive, going above and beyond to ensure guests feel welcome and taken care of. It's also clear that this place has a loyal following. The delicious food, and exceptional service keeps me coming back for more.

Wonderful neighborhood pub! The atmosphere, vibe, food, and service is terrific. It's a casual spot to have a drink, go watch the game, or have a nice dinner. There is a very patriotic theme here from the decor to the menu. Think George Washington revolution era yankee doodle dandy set in a modern placing. Around 16 beers on tap with many local brewers featured along with some imports and domestics. Bottle and cans of the more regular varieties. Nice house list of cocktails too and some wines. Fish & Chips were so good here and not greasy at all. Shiner beer on tap reminded me of my trips to San Antonio to visit family. Everything was fairly priced but also not on the cheap side. You'll drop some cash here for dinner and drinks, but the good portions and tasty food are worth it.

If I am not at home you can probably find me here. I love this place for a few equally good reasons. (Hopefully you are in the mood for some light reading) 1 Bathrooms are kept spotless regardless of how busy it gets. 2 They have swag and it's not mandatory for the staff to wear but most do because it's cool, quality stuff. Also, lowest turnover rate I have ever seen says something about a place as a whole. (That's the small stuff) 3 The staff are awesome (to put it lightly) They have always found a way to accommodate my family when we go. Even if it is the final game of the World Cup. Place was packed by 9am and I walk in with 2 strollers around 10am. They helped us find a place to stand till a table opened up. I have more epic examples but this is the most recent. 4 The Kitchen will always surprise you with the specials. Like a 5 star restaurant. I can remember ones from over a month ago. Like the ham, pizzas, and Most of us are hoping the steak quesadillas from last week's special find its way onto the standard menu. (PLEASE) 4.1 Speaking on the clever, standard menu I have not tried everything yet. (I'm working on it) My goto's are the many burger and slider options, steak and chicken sandwiches or just one of the appetizers when I am not that hungry. Most things are made inhouse, from scratch by Mike the head chef and his extremely talented staff. Mike has an impressive background in his culinary career and consider myself lucky that he landed at my favorite bar. 5 What is on tap? What is not on tap. They have all of my favorites. The Big Wave, Allagash, Montauk, Sixpoint, and tons more. When I am on a budget they also have tall cans of ice cold PBR for $7 bucks ( don't drink cider but they have a few of those too) If I ever leave the neighborhood I will still regular this place. Why go elsewhere? If it is your first time there and you find me I'll buy you a round for reading all of this!

Wolfs Lair - Wagyu Burger

Wolfs Lair

4.3(8 reviews)
1.6 mi•Astoria

Was looking for a good burger this night and with a little search a place called Wolf's Lair popped…read moreup. It's a pretty nice sports bar with large TV screens throughout the place so will definitely be on my list of places to hit up to watch a few games! Overall food and service was on point, but also it was a random weeknight where there wasn't a crowd. Either way, recommend this bar if you're looking to grab a bite or watch a game! Classic Waygu Burger - 4/5 Great tasting and juicy burger, but one thing I wish was included was a side of fries at bare minimum. Cook of the meat was on point Disco Fries - 5/5 - Think of it as poutine but with mozzarella instead. Great side dish to a burger

What to make of this place?…read more When we visited in September (at that time), a wanna-be sports bar had just taken over the Greek taverna Blue Sea Taverna (before that, two iterations of Akrotiri). Both Greek tavernas had failed or gone out of business. So we were curious to see what changes had been made. When we entered, we were initially confused because the seating, especially the lounge seating, did not create a sports bar vibe. Even adding a bunch of TVs did not give us that feel either. Instead, our initial impression was that they were trying to convert an old Greek taverna into a gastropub, similar to other well-known ones in the area. And I should also add we had not been following the local news about the controversy regarding their name association with a World War II fortified bunker that was blown up at the end of the Second World War, and only read about the controversy over their name after we left, and on social media. Apparently, the owner(s) were most likely unaware of its historical context when naming their establishment. So we did not factor that into this review. Upon entering the Wolf's Lair, the seating was that of a modified Mediterranean restaurant. We chose the comfy seating looking out towards 29th Street and 30th Avenue. It had been raining heavily, and so we were just glad to be inside. Because our initial impression was that we were in a Mediterranean gastropub, we ordered lamb chops with lemon potatoes. The waiter, who may have been one of the owners, informed us that this vegetable was not on the menu; however, when our chops arrived, as you can see from the photos, we were indeed served lemon potatoes. We got what we ordered, which made us happy, and the chops were cooked to perfection. As we usually do not drink alcohol, beverages were not factored into our review. However, there was one thing we found a little strange and creepy. When we left, one of the employees, presumably an owner, insisted on coming out to help take photos. This was a little off-putting. Nevertheless, we got some good shots. In writing this review, we spent a lot of time deliberating our experience at the Wolf's Lair. We focused on the restaurant, service, food quality, and atmosphere. While the overall experience was excellent, we did not find Wolf's Lair to have a sports-bar atmosphere, but rather a family-dining atmosphere. On the day we visited, there was hardly any action at the bar, and most of us seated were into the food, if nothing else, with one family having a birthday party for one of their children. Overall, we had a good experience. Whether we come back to see if the Wolf's Lair becomes an actual sports bar, well, that's another matter.

It is the last original beer garden remaining in New York City. On a hot summer day, the Beer Garden just off 31st street is the place to come and relax, watch a game or event, or, at other times, attend a civic or social meeting with local elected officials in one of their private rooms or the main auditorium. I was here last July to hang out and hold an outdoor meeting about a local park in Astoria. We had a choice of burgers, mac and cheese, pizza schnotzel, beer-battered onion rings, and various fried foods. However, there is one aspect of going to the Beer Garden that I ABSOLUTELY HATE, and that is bouncers frisking down visitors or asking customers to show an ID. In my opinion, that is a turnoff and unnecessary action taken, for orderly, polite adults, and makes you feel as if you are in a strip club, and thus an invasion of the person's right to privacy. I recommend, yes, but it is best to go when you want to attend a group event.

Sweet Afton is a hip Irish-style pub known for its craft cocktails, extensive beer selection, and upscale pub fare. It has a cozy interior with exposed brick and a sought-after outdoor garden area that is enclosed in the winter.  A few of their menu items include "Astoria's best burger" (using Pat LaFrieda beef), the Dirty Pickle Martini (featuring McClure's pickle juice), and beer-battered fried pickles. I learned that they have a sister pub called the Bonnie in Ditmars, which I have been to and had a great time. Last Saturday I came back for a third time. I was surprised at how things had changed; much more laid-back, with good customer service, good vibes, and one of the most delicious bar burgers I have ever eaten, with a side salad, in any pub or establishment in Queens. Furthermore, Sweet Afron had some nice alternatives to bear and larger, and I selected a cider instead. First, I was offered a sip, and then, upon my approval, a full glass of cider. In conclusion, I do plan to return!

My partner on the other hand, was famished and ordered the steak and eggs which he happily devoured. Service was great, our server was very attentive and never had us wait. I would highly recommend coming here for brunch!
