    -Chicken & Waffle -Hangover Skillet
    Melissa P.

    The service was amazing. The ambiance is very chill and the music is good. The chicken and waffles are a must! The hangover skillet was also really good. Everything we had tasted great would def come back here. It is also kid friendly.

    Cute place; music nice and low where you can have a conversation and not yell; great food and an awesome bartender, Scotty!!! Definitely will be going there soon!

    -Brunch Tots
    Chelsea A.

    Walking in the hostess asked if we had reservations so I'm assuming this place gets packed! Nonetheless, we got a table asap. The service was friendly and quick, can't complain. My lemon ricotta pancakes were delicioussss, I love how they add almonds it's a nice touch. The mimosa was great, perfect amount of alcohol. The tater tots were also super tasty! Overall the food was delicious, loved my experience.

    Cheeseburger + Martini (Daily Special $20)
    Sandy Y.

    Came for lunch on a weekend and enjoyed the food that we ordered. Ordered a hot toddy and cozy chai martini - the hottie warmed me up from the inside, and the martini was sweet and tasted like mocha. For food, got the French toast sticks to share, the cheeseburger and martini daily special ($20), an avocado toast with smoked salmon supplement (extra $8), and breakfast potatoes as a side. Personally, the breakfast potatoes really hit. Well seasoned with onions and peppers - the side plate had a great proportion! The French toast sticks were especially good - sweet but not too sweet. The fresh strawberries and blueberries on top cut through the buttery and cinnamon-y sweetness. Adding smoked salmon into the avocado toast was the way to go. Unfortunately, the burger was quite dry and although a great deal, would not recommend it. Take note, the restaurant is quite loud and lively.

    Astoria Burger with Truffle Fries
    Dalhia C.

    We stopped by Oliver's in Astoria for brunch and it never disappoints. We've been here several times, and the food is always solid and the vibe is super chill. This time around we ordered the wings,chicken fingers with fries the breakfast burrito, and the Astoria Burger. My friend switched it up and got her Astoria Burger with grilled chicken instead of beef, plus a gluten-free bun -- and they had no problem making the substitution. Everything came out fresh and flavorful. For drinks, we had Malbec and Bloody Marys, which paired perfectly with the food and made brunch feel extra cozy. Overall, still one of our go-to brunch spots in Astoria. Good food, good drinks, and consistent service every time we come. Definitely recommend!

    Taco Tuesday
    Margaret S.

    What a way to start our summer 2025! We came here last week and had a blast. They had happy hour and we all got the same drink; the queen of queens. It was refreshing and had just the right amount of alcohol. For appetizers, We shared truffle fries and mozzarella sticks. Then I had the Cobb salad with chicken. Everything was so good. I would have liked the mozzarella sticks to be less bready and more cheesy though. We had a really good time! We got to sit outside and our waitress was so sweet. The staff in general were very attentive even though they were getting busy. We would definitely come back here. See you soon Oliver's.

    French toast sticks and fried pickles
    Ebony C.

    French toast sticks and fried pickles...definitely seems like the ideal meal on a random Monday before 1pm. I came here on a lazy mid day Monday with a friend to catch up. We walked in and it pretty quiet. I'm sure b/c people are at work, while I'm galavanting all over the city during the summer. Anywho we were told to sit anywhere. Now for the food...besides the aforementioned my comrsde ordered the breakfast potatoes and the breakfast biscuit sliders. I washed it down with a hibiscus mimosa. Everything we got was tasty and hit the taste buds. Our bartender and waiter was pretty awesome as well. Didn't even blink at my weird combo. Lol. I found out there were other Oliver locations. I hope the other locations are just as good.

    -Steak & Eggs (not very good)
    Emmily C.

    We're in the month of January and somehow there was a smashed hover fly on one of the ice cubes in my ginger ale. Someone did come over and apologize which made me feel better but the food was very mediocre and bland so I wish I left after discovering the bug in my drink. I ordered a medium well steak with eggs ($31). The steak was very overcooked, lacking flavor, and the entire piece of steak was surrounded by inedible gristle. To make it worse my salad had mushy wilted bitter greens all throughout it so the taste was unpleasant. The potatoes were dried out. The music was also EXTREMELY loud to the point my ears were hurting at 4pm. We will not be returning.

    Fun spot with loud music, strong spicy ginger margaritas, mimosa trees, and booth, bar, and stool seating. A nice size menu with a good variety of food. I had a chicken Caesar salad and my friend had avocado toast with salmon on the side. Enjoyed mine and she seemed to like hers as well. The staff is sweet and welcoming. Would gladly come back.

    buffalo chicken empanadas
    Cindy L.

    First, they seated us (a party of 3) at a small high top table for two, when there was a booth available, and I was told to move my chair out of the way of the aisle and squish together at all already small table which was a bit frustrating, so we asked to move. They let us and everything was fine service-wise after that. I ordered a sunrise mocktail and it didn't taste like much more than a Sprite, I think the ratio was a bit off. Then we got Buffalo chicken empanadas, mac and cheese and the Bavarian pretzels to start. I am not a Buffalo chicken gal so I won't speak on that but the mac and cheese was alright but packed with black pepper. I prefer a creamier, mild sauce. The same cheese sauce was used as a dipping sauce for the soft pretzels. The pretzels were great, really hit the right spot. I got the carne asada quesadilla and it was pretty good but really hard to eat without getting extremely messy as the sauce and garnishes were drizzled all over it, so I had to eat it with a fork and it hardly stayed together. The campfire brownie actually did have roasted marshmallows but the marshmallows were charred so much that you couldn't tell what was a brownie and what was a roasted marshmallow by looking at it. I know that's how some people like their marshmallows but it also shrinks them so the ratio to ice cream was a bit off. It was piled with ice cream and had the world's smallest brownie underneath. The brownie does NOT go to the rim of the small skillet like one of those skillet cookies, that is the roasted marshmallow around the rim you see in the picture. It was good despite being disproportionate. Overall nothing spectacular and nothing horrible, just meh I suppose.

    -Mac & Cheese
    Jacklynn K.

    We went for brunch yesterday. Though we were half an hour late to our reservation, the hostess was very accommodating and we were seated immediately. We shared a few appetizers and they were all pretty good. The mac and cheese fell short of our expectations though, it was a bit bland. It looked way better than it tasted. The french toast sticks were amazing and the highlight of our meal. The loaded hash browns had lox and creme fresh, they were pretty good. The truffle fries were huge and tasty too! Overall I would come back to explore the rest of their menu. The ambiance is nice and I would recommend Oliver's for brunch!

    The tables were all reserved, we were offered bar seating. It worked out well as the service was wonderful and our seats were just as comfortable. The bartender was very attentive and continuously checked on us. The mimosa's were wonderful not to overwhelming. The food was great we each ordered something different. I enjoyed the fact that the music was not loud and overbearing so we were able to enjoy our conversation. It was a wonderful time had on a day off from work.

    I can't believe I've been in Astoria for so long and just tried Oliver's this past month. A family friend took me out for lunch here, I fell in love & decided to go back with my uncle. (& puppy). Our waiter was so kind and welcoming, he started off by asking how our day was & genuinely cared. My uncle goes "I don't remember the last time someone had such great energy". As for food, we ordered 2 apps & 2 desserts (judge away, it was one of those days where comfort food was needed hehe). The mozz stick's & carnita quesadilla were both so flavorful. Not too greasy, but just right. As for dessert, we ordered the brownie & donut holes. The brownie was out of this world - the marshmallows were toasted and felt like they came out of a bonfire. This will def become a go-to spot - next time I'm coming for those lemon ricotta pancakes served during brunch!! I hope they taste just as good as they look!

    Am I able to bring children and are high chairs/booster seats available?

    Children aren't banned from here. Id say kids would probably have a better time during the day. The evening tends to be more adult oriented. I don't remember seeing a high chair but I'm sure you can call them to make sure.

    Hi, I was wondering in regards to the dogs allowed. Is it for indoors too? Are the dogs allowed inside if u r dining in? Thank u

    Hi there! We can only allow service animals.

    Is this place nice for a date night?

    Yes!

The biggest question then became, where to go? We needed a place that was relatively easy to get to that would hold close to 100 people. Jungly was a contender for several reasons - it's location, size, vibe, and menu all seemed to check off. It also helped that I had done business with the owner previously at one of his other spots. It seemed like the natural choice, so I went ahead with the booking. Jungly is located in LIC - it's a pretty convenient spot as its close to the LIRR and the subway. Parking can be a challenge, but luckily I found a spot only a block away. The space itself is nicely set up - walking in you're immediately greeted by the bar area with dining areas both to the left and the right. Due to our size, they closed the place to the public and we were able to freely roam the bar area and one of the dining rooms. In addition to standard tables, they have some lounge space and high tops by the bar. The vibe is somewhat modern - a black/grey color scheme paired with neon and golds. It looks like the space could easily be converted to a club-like atmosphere. Since we were here for a private event, the food was set up buffet style - we chose three apps, four mains, and two sides. Ultimately, for apps we chose pita bread with dips, steak tacos, and shrimp tacos. For mains we chose fried chicken sliders, smashed beef sliders, cacio e pepe, and roasted chicken. For sides, we got fries and Brussels sprouts. In general, all of the food was tasty; the strongest dishes were the tacos, fries, and the chicken tacos. The tacos were generously filled, the fries were the crispy skin style, and the chicken sliders were nice and crispy. The weakest for me was the cacio e pepe - not much flavor and just not really a standout IMO. My communication with management to set up the event were a little staccato, though in the end everything worked out. For the most part, my communication with them was consistent in the days leading up to the event. Service the night of the event was overall good - they were very accessible but I found that they could have replenished the food a little faster in response to the rate it was being taken from the buffet. The bar, on the other hand, was great - both in service and variety of liquor available. Overall, we had a great event at Jungly. They were professional, fair, and delivered on the goods. I would definitely consider hosting another event there, or dine here on my own.

The bartender, the one person who should be welcoming and engaging, came across as rude and lacked any charisma. On a Friday night, good energy behind the bar makes a huge difference, and that was completely missing. I ordered a margarita, which is one of the simplest and most common cocktails to make. I asked for it really sweet with plenty of salt on the rim. Instead, it came out barely sweet and with almost no salt. For a $17 margarita, I expected much better. I've had to return the drink because I've had better margaritas for $12 at other places. While waiting for my friend, I had to wait with a glass of water because I didn't trust the way they made the drink. The bartender told me I either needed to order another drink or move, which felt unnecessarily rude and unwelcoming. To be fair, the food was good and the space itself is nice. However, the bar service left a very poor impression. There are plenty of more affordable places where the staff are friendly and make guests feel welcome. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend this place. Give this place a 6.5
