    Passion fruit juice

    This place is not as good as the reviews on TripAdvisor made it seem. We each ordered a drink, and the menu was vast, but not overwhelming. The service was so sweet, friendly, and even gave us some of their favorite recommendations on the island. It's a super casual place in a strip mall. Really inconspicuous, but there were a lot of locals which we thought was a good sign. We ordered the Conch fritters to start. They were simply OK. Only 4 for the appetizer, which was not sufficient to be appetized. We then ordered the paella - this would have been good except we found so many bones in the fish as we were eating. The fish clearly had not been cleaned well and the paella was pretty wet and not as flavorful as it could've been. There are far superior seafood restaurants and I would not return if I came to back to the island. Seafood is vast in Aruba!

    My husband and I had dinner here our first night in Aruba. This place is in a strip plaza, very casual. Everyone was super polite and professional, taking the time to answer any questions we had and explain the menu. I had the whole fried snapper which was delicious. Fresh, seasoned well, and fried to perfection. They gave me two because they were smaller (pan sized). My husband had the shrimp and conch in creole sauce. So fresh, tender, and flavorful. Prices were average for Aruba, overall we really enjoyed ourselves. May go again before our vacation is over... Cons: the conch fritters didn't seem fresh and had little if any conch in them. Also, the shrimp cocktail had shrimp of different sizes and the cocktail sauce was scarce...

    Ordered Lunch special with Fish Soup, Fish Entree and Shrimp Fried Rice . Soup was delicious and so does the Fish Entree . Shrimp fried rice was little oily but giving 5 star for the taste .

    Family of four (2 adults/teen/child). We were immediately seated. Waiter was super friendly but seemed harried. We noticed he had several other tables. Our special cocktails quickly arrived were tasty. Also, we ordered fried shrimp, fish and shrimp fried rice. The food was good especially the fried rice, but the fish not so much. Con: we never received our kid's order of chicken fingers. When we finally hailed down our waiter he forgot again. By the time we finished eating, her kid's plate arrived, but it was fish and not chicken strips. He promptly removed it from our bill. Worse part we waited, no kidding, almost 20 minutes for our bill.

    Came at 5:30pm. Place was pretty empty. Found easy seating. Lobster was okay, had better. Overall not as good as advertised everywhere. Oh well, we tried.

    We just returned from this years trip to Aruba and Red Fish did not disappoint. In fact it is the only restaurant we visited twice while we were there. Great food, great value, atmosphere is wonderful and they even make a good martini. It has moved to the top of our list. We have visited Aruba 27 years in a row and have been to many restaurants.

    My family and I ate here for lunch. I order conch with shrimp. The food was very good but the service was very slow. The waitress forgot our drink order and we didn't receive it until our meal was served. I'm sure it was a mistake and I still would definitely eat here again.

    Whole fried catch of the day. Red Snapper!!!

The sardines were fried well, but just not as mind-blowing as I thought they'd be judging from reviews. My fav were the Tiger shrimps (sautéed) and the branzino (grilled). You could really taste the char, and they were cooked perfectly. We also got butter garlic linguine with scallops and clams. My husband loved the linguine (and the free bread) the most. The scallops were nice and plump but could have been seared more. The clams were tiny and I wouldn't get them again. The guy behind the fish counter was great. The server however was pretty slow. We waited 10 mins after choosing our fish for just tap water and eventually I just got up to ask the guy behind the counter for water. I also had to go up to the server myself to ask for to-go boxes and the check. And I got up to give the check to them, because they still hadn't taken it after my trip to the bathroom. Place is spacious enough for a family dinner, feels welcoming enough.

At the table you order the appetizers, sides, and drinks then you can proceed to the raw seafood display to pick your seafood and how you want them to be cooked. To start, we got the Fried Calamari, Roasted Eggplant Dip, and the Greek Salad. For entrees, we got the Grilled Spanish Branzino, Fried Sardines, Sauteed Scallops, and the Special Greek Salad. Our favorites were the Roasted Eggplant Dip (smoky and delicious) and the Grilled Spanish Branzino (grilled to perfection and well seasoned). For drinks, the Virgin Mojito was amazing and soooo refreshing that we had to ask our waiter for the recipe! Overall, it was such a pleasant dinner experience here!

But tucked away on 34th Street, Off the Hook Raw Bar & Grill proves that some things are worth it. Years later, the truth remains unchanged: this sanctuary delivers a masterclass in cozy warmth and absolute culinary respect. The lobster mac and cheese is a decadent triumph--rich and loaded. But the real revelation is the skirt steak. It carries a deeply seasoned, char-grilled crust that locks in a perfect, juicy interior. It is, without exaggeration, one of the the best damn skirt steaks you will ever encounter in this city. Decor (4.25/5): It's a small, intimate room that hits you with a cozy, effortlessly cool vibe. It also has the small outdoor patio tucked away in the back--a perfect, low-lit refuge for a summer night in Queens. Customer Service (4.5/5): The staff is exceptional. They are welcoming, professional, and move with a hospitality that keeps the room's energy completely relaxed. Food Rating (5/5): Flawless execution. The skirt steak is dialed in to absolute perfection every single time, and the lobster mac stands alone at the top of its class. Price: Around $65 per person. Worth every penny--just prepare to battle for a spot on the asphalt if you drive.

    Best Greek restaurant I've had to date!…read more Ambiance (5/5): There are a few tables inside where the decorations are white/blue to the classic décor style of Greek restaurants. There's also plenty of outdoor patio seating with cute vine/florals draped along the seating area. A little dark with the dim lighting when we dined in the evening. Service (5/5): We arrived around 8p on a Sunday evening and it was jammed packed. They had an opening right when we arrived which was super lucky. They were attentive throughout our experience. We were glad that the server's recommendations to # of plates was proportional to our needs. Food (5/5): every single dish was outstanding! The starter was a complementary hummus with the softest, moist, pita bread. I could've easily eaten this and been happy. Our favorite was the baked Halloumi with honey, fig jam and cranberries. The exterior had a nice crust from the caramelized honey. It was rich but paired well with the table pita (which they kindly refilled!!) The next item was Shieftalia pork kebabs which seems so easy but was filled with flavor from the onions and herbs. It paired well with the yogurt sauce. Lastly, we had the baked eggplant (almost reminded me of a Greek version of eggplant parm), this lacked a little flavor but still very good. Wish this dish had a bit more spice. The 3 appetizers were large in portion and enough for the 2 of us to share. We loved it and can't wait to come back!

We ended up offering a Greek salad, spanakopita balls, zucchini fried balls, and then the large seafood platter which came with two sides.

However, for $95, platter could've been wayyyy bigger, it did come with 2 sides and we got the beets and chickpea stew. Both healthy and yummy!

The demand is so far through the roof that there is a nightly line for hungry folks looking to get a bite of their of their Egyptian / Mediterranean fare. By Ditmars standards, the place feels large and spacious. Their renovation from a few years ago is really paying off, Waiting is a part of the experience, as folks will eventually pick items from the display and cooked to their liking. It's hard to go wrong with anything on the display which for me include stheir chunky octopus tentacles, their succulent butterfly shrimp, grilled fish, and tasty grilled scallops. For a good time, combine it with babaganoush, lemon potatoes, beet salad, and wash it down with a mint lemonade. Service isn't the warmest, but dealing with a bunch of folks in line all day always creates a hardened attitude. Most are fluent in Arabic and English. While waiting in line, be sure to look at what's being served or have a list handy for ordering quickly.

The salad was a refreshing complement to the other dishes we ordered. My spread preferences from most favorite to least were Melintzanosalata (roasted eggplant), Tzatziki (cucumber yogurt), Tyrokafteri (spicy whipped feta), Skordalia (garlic and olive oil whipped potato), and Taramosalata (fish roe and whipped potato). Pita bread that came with it was great. The red snapper was nicely charred, seasoned well, and quite tender. Papoutsaki was the heaviest dish of the bunch but tasty too, a nice combo of flavors.

The whole vibe felt warm and made it a really nice family dinner. My grandma and mom both seemed happy and enjoyed everything, which honestly mattered most.

Everything was solid and great for sharing. We also got grilled octopus as an appetizer -- super tender and really well done. For my main, I had the grilled deboned red snapper -- absolutely delicious. It came with a creamy lemon sauce on the side that you can pour over the fish, plus oregano fries and grilled vegetables. The veggies were amazing, especially the grilled onions that just melted in your mouth. We also ordered takeout: kefte kebab with fries, which was maybe smaller portion but it was good flavor. For dessert we had a baklava float (I think that was the name) with coffees to finish. Very happy with the whole meal overall. Drinks at the bar beforehand were also a highlight -- sangria and a gin, lavender, elderflower, cucumber cocktail that my grandma actually loved.
