    Sanfords at Astoria was an amazing place to come in for brunch with friends . A cute location with amazing options , the avocado toast was delicious! And I was able to get salmon on the side ! All the food was delicious and the service exceptional, can't wait to come back here again .

    Comfortable restaurant with great whiskey and cocktails The restaurant vibe is relaxed. The cocktails are creative and tasty. There is a well curated whiskey selection. The food is adequate. The service is helpful and attentive.

    The avocado egg rolls were so hot and fresh, so yummy (just a little small). This place was popping on a Sunday afternoon! The bar was packed. There is always a private party here (sweet 16, birthday parties) whenever I stop by, shows how popular this place is! I had the duck confit again with the waffles, which didn't disappoint. But I'm definitely open to trying out something else next time!

    Prime bistro breakfast burger

    My daughter brought me here for Mothers Day brunch / lunch. I glanced at the menu prior to arriving and I couldn't wait to try the avocado and filet mignon spring rolls!! They were really good! Definitely not a disappointment! Both the filet mignon and the avocado rolls were exceptionally delicious!! For my main course, I wanted to try the Organic roasted chicken for lunch, but they told us they were only serving brunch that day because it was Mother's Day. I ended up settling for a chicken quesadilla, which was just OK. My daughter got the Prime Bistro breakfast burger, which was just ok as well. The fried egg in the breakfast burger was poached with an extremely runny yoke, which we were not expecting, as the menu said "fried egg" not "poached." :-( Anywho, needless to say it was nothing to write home about. Service wasn't too bad given that it was Mother's Day and slightly busy. In addition, our waitress was friendly and patient. I wouldn't mind returning in the future on a "regular day" when the lunch menu will be in effect, that way I can try their real food, which I'm sure will be enjoyable and will warrant an updated review. :-)

    Avocado Spring Rolls
    Christina ..

    Love Sanfords so much! I often pop in for a drink and finally found my favorite food items on the menu. I will note they have an amazing cocktail selection. Here are my highlights: -Avocado spring rolls: The best appetizer on the menu in my opinion -Filet mignon with pepper sauce: Their cuts are so tender -Truffle fries: Stands out from regular French fries -Pecan-crusted chicken salad: Very unique and flavorful!

    Great time. Oyster special $1.50 per oyster for happy hour M-F. Came on a weeknight for an early dinner that happened to fall in the happy hour times. Server was very attentive and came by frequently to check on water and food. It was not super busy during happy hour. Honestly really love the ambiance with the wood light fixtures. Had a lovely time!

    Oyster happy hour

    Great place for dinner, drinks, brunch... conveniently located near the train. Happy hour specials - oysters, bourbon, whiskey, wine and beer. I have been here for various meals with various friends and the staff was always wonderful. I've also taken myself out to chill at the bar because I was craving one of their creative old fashioneds! Lovely and large space, can accomodate a large group. PS they are vegetarian friendly!

    The best Negroni in New York. Aged in white American oak for 4 weeks... aging makes a lot of difference.

    This has been a staple restaurant for us for the past few years. I'm surprised I never left a review. If you're in the Astoria area and don't know where to eat, come here. The food is amazing and there is something here for literally everyone. Its pretty family friendly as well. We went for brunch the other day and were seated right away. I recommend literally anything and everything from the menu, anyone I bring here is always super impressed. Brunch is especially good here but dinner and lunch options are also solid. We loved the truffled mac and cheese and they actually have a good dessert menu too! We will be back again and again, love this place.

    truffle mac and cheese
    Monica L.

    No wait on a Saturday afternoon (12pm-1pm) but it was decently filled. Love the cozy atmosphere and quick service. The restaurant is spacious and has plenty of room to be seated comfortably. Had the truffle mac and cheese (3.75/5) it was decent, cheesy and al dente but nothing life-changing. Also had the steak skillet (3.75/5), it was cooked fine (they don't let you choose how well the steak is cooked) and flavor was OK, but my egg was slightly overcooked. Would probably come back again since it has a decent brunch selection with no wait time.

    Came here for the first time for brunch and was immediately impressed by the atmosphere its is beautifully decorated and has a warm inviting ambiance. The waiter was friendly and took our order right away. The food was fresh, delicious and flavorful. We're definitely marking this restaurant as a new favorite.

    Filet Mignon Spring Roll
    Olaedo E.

    I had date night here. Inside is pretty and has a classic feel. For food, we ate the following: Filet mignon spring rolls - 7/10 Charred Brussel sprouts - 8/10 Filet mignon (10 oz) - 7.5/10 Braised short rib cavatelli - 7/10 Lobster Mac and cheese - 8/10 Nothing we ate was outstanding, and the service fell a little flat, where we felt like afterthoughts. I'm not too sure if I'd go back.

    Skirt Steak Ciabatta Crabcakes Benedict
    Lauren Y.

    Went at 1pm on a Saturday and got seated immediately. Service was great and the place was clean and well air conditioned. I got the skirt steak ciabatta and it was amazing! I would definitely order it again. The fries with the sandwich were also decent. The crab cakes Benedict and the home fries were just ok. Overall I'd go back but just do your research on which foods are good before you order.

    The Parlour Room is one of my favorite places to sit, sip fine wine, and enjoy the company of…read morefriends. Last night I got the chance to stop by and enjoy the ambiance of this lovely place. The service is fabulous, the wine list has been changed. Very appreciative of our server allowing us to sample the wine before deciding. Definitely recommend the Parlour Room.

    There's a song by Sade called "Never as Good as the First Time." Although the song is about love,…read moreand not dining, I've found that when I have an impeccably perfect time at a restaurant, the subsequent visits just don't measure up to that first time. And this isn't entirely the restaurant's fault: when, as a customer, you've already tasted a good part of the menu, seen the decor, experienced the good service and ambience, it's really hard for future visits to be "as good as the first time." But then there's Parlour Room that dazzles me every time I visit New York. Last Saturday we sat at the same booth as our first visit and were lucky enough to have Jesus as a server again. I was so excited to see him. We had so much food that we had to take a good amount to go, but let me give you the rundown. New things we tried this time: Octopus: I've never had octopus in my life. And I've never wanted to try it. No interest at all. But a Parlour Room suggestion? Okay, sure. I trust it. And guess what? 10/10 Ribs: The presentation was pretentious in the best way, but still, my expectations weren't too high. BUT they rivaled the best soul food restaurant. Fall off the bone and full of flavor. I couldn't believe it. Another 10/10 Mac and cheese: I wasn't enthusiastic about ordering this because I didn't want all the carbs and cheese. Then I couldn't stop eating it. 10/10 The usuals: burger and fries, meatballs, and deviled eggs. Always 10/10, or 5 stars, in Yelp standards. :) The drinks and dessert were unbelievably decadent as well. As usual. What an evening. One more thing...They changed the menu recently, and in my experience, that usually means some sort of disappointment as you discover they've gotten rid of your favorite dish, added uninteresting things, and/or consolidated the offerings in general. But Parlour Room was thoughtful in this regard--unlike anything I've seen before. And what a relief. When I didn't think the menu could get any more perfect, they went and concocted another level of perfection. Oh, I love this place.
