    Milkshakes
    Sita P.

    Stumbled into Jax Inn diner late night on a weekend, there aren't any 24/7 options left. The diner was pretty empty, quick service. We ordered milkshakes, a bowl of chili & a grill chicken club which comes with fries, it was HUGE. Both the chili and club were delicious! We had enough food to take home and it was just as good the next day.

    Chicken Parmigiana
    Mary D.

    **based on a food delivery** Not sure why these ratings are so low but I LOVE this joint. The chicken avocado salad and the chicken parmigiana is DELICIOUS and HUGE. I especially love that the pasta comes with soup and 2 bread rolls, which are my favorite so soft and fresh! Would highly recommend this spot. Also random, but they have great cantaloupe! I usually order the half cantaloupe, it's always the sweetest. Highly recommend this neighborhood gem.

    Review really 3.5 star place. Everyone here was nice and friendly and the service was very efficient. The portion sizes were fair for the prices and the food was good but not great. They're matzo ball soup was way too salty and the hamburger was overdone. The fries were respectable and I like that it's open 24 seven. It's a good local diner. But nothing that I would go out of my way for.

    So, this diner is like an old friend. Reliable, always there, never trying to impress but still doing it. The portions are so big, you'll need a nap halfway through. I often come here with my family, and it's the one place we all agree on. Even my picky father in law doesn't complain here. The coffee? Strong enough to wake the dead. The vibe is classic diner - nothing fancy, just good, solid food that gets the job done. The same could be said for the service: quick, no-nonsense, and with just enough sass to make you feel like you're part of the family. If you don't mind a bit of retro charm and a menu that's 15 pages long, you'll be happy. Perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast... or a 3 AM snack.

    Buckwheat Pancake

    When i stepped in , the place was not busy. The servers were attentive and the ambiance was nice . I liked the potato skins and the buckwheat pancakes were delicious . The coffee tasted a bit old but that's okay . Taking one star off just because the restroom was bit worn down and dirty.

    This diner is pretty solid in terms of food. Their prices are comfortable and there is a large variety of options from breakfast to lunch to dinner. The place itself is a bit out dated and could use some remolding as well as better cleaning. The coffee is always very strong which is exactly how I like it. This past weekend I went with my family for brunch and ordered their French omelette which had bacon, Brie cheese and scallions. The omelette came with toast and home fries. The bacon could have been a little crispier but the flavor overall was very good. The home fries could also use some more seasoning but they were cooked well done which was how I like it. The only downfall was the service. We waited a while for someone to even take our coffee order and food order. The server had a bit of an attitude when we flagged him after waiting a while to take our order. An apology for the long wait from the server would have been more appropriate. All in all, this diner is a good option if you're in the area and want diner food.

    California omelette with home fries and toast
    Anna L.

    Large diner that is open 24 hours. There is some parking out front. We came for breakfast which is a pretty busy time for them. The food was average. I had an omelette which comes with home fries and toast. The omelette was bland to me. I have never had good breakfast eggs aside from huevos rancheros at any restaurant, though. The turkey sausage was not the brown breakfast type. It was huge but too salty. I couldn't finish the last one. The best of everything was the home fries. It's hard to mess that up.

    Protein breakfast -- comes with grilled chicken

    I really like the food at Jax Inn diner-- their portions are very big and everything tastes good. Service is quick, warm, and friendly. The ambiance is typical of a diner-- casual, retro style interior, with a combination of booths and tables. Their coffee definitely leans more towards a darker stronger roast.

    I don't find their food extraordinary, but they do have a lot to offer. It's likely that what you are thinking of eating or craving is probably on menu. There is a variety of cultural dishes--American style available. we came in on a Sunday after 11:30 AM and there was a long wait. Since it was just me and a friend , we headed to the Counter and skipped the wait for a table or booth. The noise level of dining conversations and overhead lounge music wasn't too bad. We enjoyed our banter immersed in own little bubble. Their bathrooms could use more attention. But I get it. It's the Sunday crowd and the staff is really busy cycling through groups of patrons to accommodate the next Group the that's been waiting for Brunch. We've been here on a weekday when the staff is much more personal and interactive. We don't come here for the food. It's just one of those places we all like to go where it is ok to hang with a few friends or family while breaking bread. There is free parking for about 25 cars in the back. This alone is a huge reason why we find it convenient to eat here sometimes.

    Lemon Chicken Piccata
    Shelley L.

    Came here for an early dinner because kids were hungry at 4:30pm and it's so easy to get a variety of food for them at a diner. Friendly service throughout from the hostess to the waitress to the busboy. Tables appeared clean and so did the floor! Ordered a cobb salad, lemon chicken piccata (choice of soup or salad so I went with chicken soup) and baja fish tacos. Food came fairly quickly. Cobb salad is a generous portion with all the toppings. The grilled chicken was the best part. Nice char-grilled taste. Overall, good salad to share and all the toppings were fresh. Lemon chicken piccata - kids loved the spaghetti. Chicken was cooked well. The sauce was okay. Chicken soup that came with it was alright, too. Baja fish tacos - I like that they added pineapple bits to it and the salsa has a bit of kick. Decent portions of fish. Good appetizer to share with kids. The one thing to note is the bathroom. Ladies room has one functioning stall because the door is completely busted. So its hit or miss with one stall given the cleanliness and all. But the meal was good and we all left happy. Love the booth seats overlooking northern boulevard. Keeps the kids busy while enjoying a meal.

It was balanced and refreshing, but pretty similar to most mules. For an app, we had the halloumi fries and they were really good, especially if you are a halloumi fan. The portion is definitely on the smaller side, so if you are sharing with a group I would order more than one. For my entree, I had the Turkish eggs and loved them. They were really well seasoned and the staff was kind enough to let me swap the bread for their biscuits. I had heard great things about the biscuits and they did not disappoint. My partner had the Chicken Not Waffles and I stole some of his cinnamon butter for my biscuit. So good! I also took a bite of his pancake and really liked that too. The staff was incredibly nice to our pup and I really appreciated that, especially since she can be a little overly friendly. They brought her a big bowl of water and just seemed genuinely happy to have her there. Overall, we really enjoyed Queen's Room. Great food, incredibly friendly service, and a nice brunch spot if you want to bring your pup along. Would definitely come again!

    We decided to try Queens Room in Ditmars for breakfast after seeing so much hype about it on…read moreTikTok. Unfortunately, our experience with the food did not live up to the hype. We started with the basket of biscuits with blueberry compote, which seemed to be one of the most popular items featured in all the viral videos. I really wanted to love them, but I was honestly disappointed. The biscuits didn't taste fresh and were kind of tough, while the blueberry compote was bland and not sweet at all. Overall, there just wasn't much flavor. The coffee was just okay, and after the biscuits, we decided to leave and try another spot down the street rather than risk being disappointed with the rest of the menu. That said, the service was great. We were able to get a table right away without a reservation, and our waitress was super nice and welcoming. Our food also came out quickly. Maybe we just caught them on an off day, but based on our experience, I personally wouldn't come back for the food. Unfortunately, the TikTok hype didn't match our experience.

    Where do I begin??! First of all i must thank my Yelp buddy…read moreSuper K for recommending Sals!! Absolutely delicious subs!! Better than Katz and Carnegie!! Sandwiches are huge!! Its possible to share a sandwich with a friend. My favorite is the da bomb or pastrami. I love dipping mine in Italian dressing.... Service is great! Located in the Astoria part of NYC. You might have to wait but its worth it!! They don't take plastic!!! You need cash!! Oh yeah no place to sit ..so take it the park.. so after you eat you can take a stroll and not feel guilty!

    I was recently visiting NYC & knowing my for a top tier sub sandwich, I must try Sal, Kris &…read moreCharlie's. So I did, and ordered "The Bomb", everything except Mayo. Cut in 4 Here's the deal. The service is very professional. Takes a minute because they're extremely busy if you visit during the lunch hours. If you're a foodie and enjoy the view of fresh meats, cheeses, salads, breads, and sandwiches being made fresh..... then the ambiance was bliss. The fact it was in a common neighborhood made it even more enjoyable of a visit! Now to the sandwich..This sandwich itself DEFINITELY lives up to the hype! It really is the REAL DEAL!! Maybe they should change the name to "Da Bomb", because it's that's good! However, through no fault of anyone, this is the learning experience I take back for my next visit: 1) Extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Potato Salad IF extra hot peppers! 2) Bring reusable containers for your sandwich, especially if you're not going home/ hotel right away. Next visit, which will be my next visit to NYC, I intend to try the roast beef and turkey hero, extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Overall, I still rate 5/5. They do a fantastic job here. Service is awesome, food is fresh, and the amount of food they offer for the price is well worth it. Definitely worth visiting again and again!!
