    Mac and cheese
    Karenna G.

    I got the Mac and cheese one time and it was great. The next time I got it, disgusting and inedible. The staff didn't take us seriously and tried to say that they always give you 1/3 of what we got the first time. It's covered completely in oil and disgusting. It was just really unprofessional. We ordered this because I'm in the hospital and wanted some comfort food. What a disappointment. The staff was dismissive and apathetic. Attached is a photo of how oily and disgusting the Mac and cheese was. The workers said there's no difference between this and the creamy Mac and cheese we received before

    Oxtail Cheesesteak
    Rob P.

    We came down at lunch time to try their Oxtail Philly Cheese on Coco Bread. The place is clean and neat and the people at the counter were super sweet and friendly. The food is delicious, the oxtail was cooked beautifully and tasted savory with some real spice that was unexpected but definitely welcomed. The coco bread is soft and sweet while the cheese just adds a saltiness that carries through an already amazing sandwich. It's a bit pricey for the sandwiches but I felt it was worth it and didn't mind at all. I wish they weren't an hour away because I would come here daily. I'll most certainly be back for another round.

    I was eager for some good new eats so went to my "Want to Try at Home" List, and completely forgot where/when/how I bookmarked this place. The only thing I wrote down in the notes was, "ox tail cheese steak is fire", so that probably means I saw it on a tik tok. That, and the fact that it was across boroughs meant that I would be able to get my cycling exercise in and some yums at the end of it, so I headed out from my apartment in Brooklyn and made the trek out to Astoria to try this deli. The place is set in the middle of the block near a bunch of other nondescript delis and quick eats. I would have missed it if I wasn't looking for it. Pro-tip, if you need to use the bathroom, you can go across the street in Mount Sinai. There were two workers; the cashier was super friendly and had good energy about her. Her recs were, of course, the ox tail cheese steak on coco bread, their most signature thing, as well as the jerk chicken empanada, so I ordered and eagerly waited the goods. Even though it says "no seats", there is one small table outside for summer weather where I planted myself to have the food fresh. I started with the highlight -- the jerk chicken empanada. The chicken was super moist and had that correct amount of spice that jerks your taste buds. But, it's even better when you add some green sauce. 11/10, I'd come back just for the empanadas. The ox tail was piping hot, so much so that the cheese oozed out. It looked promising. Unfortunately, it was very...one note. There was a ton of ox-tail in the sandwich, but there were still little bits of bone that were annoying to get through. I really wish there was more variety of flavour in it. The green sauce helped, but when you charge $22 for an oxtail sandwich, I kind of expected more complexity of flavour. But then again, it's just a deli sandwich, after all.

    The Jamrock Chop
    Delino S.

    Oh my !! oh my !!! Firstly, I highly recommended, secondly, i highly recommend, & thirdly, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. This place is NOTHING short of amazing (5 star vibes). The staff is friendly and there's not much of an ambiance since it's an order and go type place but there is a table outside if that helps. During my first visit, I tried the jamrock chop and I see why it's a popular sandwich. After the first bite, I felt instant euphoria - had one of those I'm happy to be alive for this moment(s). My friend tried the Jeremy and had a very similar reaction to mine. We were just both grateful to stop by and try Notable. I also bought the oxtail Philly to take home and holyyyyyyyyy that didn't disappoint either. I even went back and tried the Philly cheesesteak, which was very good also but had nothing on the jamrock chop or the Jeremy (+oxtail philly). More people need to know about this place, that's my main takeaway. At this point, you can try anything here and I bet it will pass the taste test - The sandwiches are so flavorful.

    Oxtail cheesesteak
    Stephanie C.

    Unassuming on the outside but make no mistake this place is packed with flavor and great service! I was lucky enough to get their last serving of the special oxtail cheesesteak ($25) and it was phenomenal. Served on coco bread, you get some sweetness balancing the savory and peppery filling - I would say a tad bit salty but yes, I still inhaled the sandwich. It's rich and heavy, hard not to be in a food coma after. I would love to come back to try their other items including the empanadas (there's a sampler plate with 6 for $24).

    The Jamrock Chop Sandwich (~$11)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: The Jamrock Chop Sandwich (~$11): chopped jerk chicken, jerk sauce, and sweet peppers, on Coco Bread (+$3) Aya's take: Notable has been on my radar for a while and when I was in the area looking for a quick lunch, Notable came to mind. I called in my order about 10 mins before and when I got there, it seemed like they had no idea about it. I ended up re-ordering, paying, and waiting there. I waited over 20 minutes (due to the lunch hour rush, short-staffing, and random disorganization) until I finally got my sandwich. Upon opening my sandwich, I immediately noticed that it was on a regular roll, not Coco Bread that was an additional charge. The chopped jerk chicken pieces were also very irregular. Some pieces were big while other bites only had shredded chicken. It made the sandwich even messier and harder to eat. The jerk sauce also was a bit on the sweeter side and didn't have that smoky and fiery flavors that you would normally get. I really wanted to like it and maybe it was an off day, but unfortunately it missed the mark for me. I would consider coming back on a Thursday to try their oxtail.

    Veggie Quesadilla
    Jen N.

    Notable (pronounced No Table as in there are no tables, no chairs - just take out) is a traditional American Deli with Jamaican vibes and the most delicious Jamaican hot food. I had to check it out and we were most definitely not disappointed. We got the Stewed Chicken, Jerk Chicken and Oxtail platters (served with rice and peas, veggies and plantains, which are ALL delicious in their own right). We also picked up The Jamrock Chop (a delicious play on the famous chopped cheese with a Jamaican twist), Jerk Empanadas and a Veggie Quesadilla with fries for our vegetarian diner. What to say? Everything was delicious, flavorful, tender, fall off the bone. Legit Jamaican right here in Astoria - tucked away in an unassuming spot. They follow a weekly Jamaican food menu so get there on the right day for the dish you're looking for. They do; however, serve jerk chicken every day. Monday - Curry Chicken Tuesday - BBQ Chicken Wednesday - Stew Chicken Thursday - Oxtail Friday - Curry Goat Saturday - Fried Chicken Oxtail goes quick. I called my order in ahead of time for pickup. They're also on GrubHub! Counter staff is so friendly. They accept cards as payment, as well. Definitely head on over and check it out. You will not be disappointed.

    Run by a hard-working owner and staffed extremely well, this place is clean and well run. There are a few delis on the same block, but this one offers a great mix of hot and cold food plus coffee that always tastes freshly brewed. As an aside, they also have salad dressing for sale in the fridge on its own, which shows you this establishment's close attention to detail when it comes to its products. There's usually a line out the door here for breakfast and for good reason. Egg white options are available and bagels. Can be coupled with boars head meat and cheese as part of a delicious breakfast sandwich. Overall just a solid five star deli that doesn't offer a lot of glitz and glamour .. but plenty of hearty food to keep your belly happy for the rest of the day.

    Finding quality Jamaican food can be incredibly difficult in certain areas of Queens but Notable is definitely a noteworthy spot that's new to Astoria. They offer not only the traditional Jamaican eats such as oxtail and jerk chicken but they offer some Jamaican inspired sandwiches as well. We went on a Friday which is Curry Goat day so we opted for that and their Jerk Chicken w/ Grilled Pineapple hero. To our surprise, the owners were there and greeted us warmly which made the experience feel warm and hospitable. One of the owners took it a step further and he even brought the food out to us as we photographed the outside of the establishment. 10 out of 10 experience regarding customer service and hospitality. As for the food - the jerk chicken sandwich is an absolute rockstar and highlight on the menu. The hero was loaded with chicken, large slices of pineapple and the sauce was bursting with flavor. A perfectly harmonious balance of sweet and spicy. I would 100% return for this sandwich alone. For the main course, the curry goat. First and foremost, the portion was large so unless you're super hungry, it can be shared between two people. The goat was well seasoned and tender as you can hope for. The plantains were delicious - I could've had 10 of them. I will most certainly be back but next time on a Thursday for the oxtail!

    First of the the owner is super cool gave pointers on his experiences with food the sandwich is amazing I ended up driving all the way from Hempstead for 3 of them it's a nice Caribbean deli the sandwich came out fast and neat I give them a 9.5 out 10 The store was very welcoming just I will deff be back

    Oxtail quesadilla (sooo good!)
    Lismarie S.

    I came in because I was in the mood for some oxtail. I've heard great things about this place and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I'm gThe lady in the front was so nice and helpful. I ordered the oxtail quesadilla to go. It was flavorful with a perfect kick! I'm so happy I stopped by. I will be coming back to try other items in the menu.

    Can't remember the names but it was the jerk chicken with the coleslaw and the oxtail empanadas.
    Indigo P. N.

    Just for the record, the oxtail cocoa bread Patty is only served on thursdays. But the jerk chicken patty with the coleslaw... Jesus take the wheel! That was so good! The bread made it sweet and tender. But the coleslaw chicken kind of gave it a Caribbean chicken sandwich bag. Either way it was so freaking good! The oxtail empanadas were good just rich! I will be returning! Now they have lemonades there that are fresh made. Do know you are not down south! And he adds sugar for you. So that's the only reason one star is missing. I need that lemonade to be made good sweet and refreshing from when I get it! But I can't blame them for not knowing how to make it! But it really wasn't good at all. I could have just gone with water. But who cares! That food was so good!

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!

They have a giant menu posted on the wall to peruse. When we approached the counter to order, the person manning the register basically ignored us. When she finally acknowledged us to place our order, the interaction was taciturn and curt - no niceties. I ordered the single order pan-fried pancake ($8, but closer to $11 after tax). The menu states a choice between beef, pork, and chicken, but we were only given the choice between beef and chicken. The cashier also gave us a choice between spicy potato or pork floss (I opted for the pork floss), which was not denoted in the menu description. The menu does say it comes with veg, but what they really mean is lettuce/salad. The menu picture online is also misleading because it says it comes with an egg, and displays both a soft-boiled egg and beautiful runny egg cascading over the pancake. Instead, the only egg that was served was one overcooked fried egg (not runny at all!), and it was cold (but more on that later). The quoted wait time for the food was 20 minutes. There's a little station near the counter to grab napkins, silverware, and water. Around 9:30am on a Friday, several tables were filled, but no one had any food (the cafe opened at 9am, so I suppose the kitchen was still ramping up). My friends and I ordered variations of the same dish (the pan-fried pancake), but the dishes were served in reverse order - the person who ordered last got their dish first and vice versa. When one order is more complex than another, it's understandable when the easier/quicker one is served first. Since we all ordered nearly the same dish, this was not the case. The way things were being expedited was not efficient. When they finally called my name, I was excited to dig in, but the dish was cold! The beef was cold, the pancake was cold, the egg was cold and overcooked... I had half a mind to send it back. I'm guessing my order was ready earlier, but it must've sat there because someone forgot about it. Now technically, there are cold elements in the dish, if you count the lettuce and dressing, but there's no reason why the pancake, egg, and beef were all cold... they weren't warm, they didn't retain any heat, they were cold. They were also skimpy on the beef. The only redeeming qualities of the dish were that, fortunately, the pancake was still crispy, albeit cold and greasy, and the pork floss is a delicacy that gave the pancake a little extra oomph of flavor and texture. My friend ordered the Wake Up Combo ($14), which is the pan-fried pancake served with a soy milk and tea egg. Similar to my own egg experience, the tea egg was disappointingly overcooked (think hard-boiled) and not jammy like the picture at all. We all have bad days, so maybe Morning Brunch & Cafe was having one... but this is a skip for me.

The prices were bad here but the service and the food weren't great. When we arrived, we were scoping out the menu, they had it posted in a lot of places but it was kind of confusing. I did like how you could scan a QR code and when you clicked on an item, it was more descriptive of the add-on options or potential meat options. There are approximately 10-13 seats, so not great for a massive party, but good for a small outing or for take out. I saw a decent amount of delivery people come in to do pick ups. My friends and I were ordering and were curtly treated by one of the employees. I ordered the fried vegetable pancake with them since you couldn't order the QR code on the tables. She told me the options of only beef and chicken. I thought pork would've been an option and then she mumbled about the options for the additional topping. I couldn't understand her when she said pork floss, so I ordered spicy potatoes. The food also came out kind of sad and was slow to come out. The order was all wrong as I ordered last and then was delivered my dish first. It was kind of sad because I didn't even realize you should be able to pick up the pancake. It was hard to eat because it kept crumbling apart due to the pan fried falky pancake was a thin layer what just felt like crust. I was imagining more like a scallion pancake with vegetables infused or stuffed in. It also came out cold, and could have used a bit more flavor like a sauce or soy sauce. The spicy potatoe tasted a little undercooked as well. My friend ordered hers with pork floss instead and that tasted a little better. The dish also came with a supposed to be overeasy egg that is supposed to be runny, but was a bit overcooked.
