Happy Hour 4-6p and 9p-close

We come to this TGI at least once a week Mainly because of the service. Have never had issues with the food, service, or cleanliness. The Bartender CHRIS is amazinggggg. Allen is pretty good as well - don't see management too often. There is decorations for holidays and things to do (photobooth, etc) but it's really not brought to life from this management team. Especially not according to the promo emails I receive. So yeah TGI for the win really only because Chris holds half the restaurant down so effortlessly. If he leaves I probably wouldn't come back tbh.

Bucket of Bones

Okay so I don't think any of us really expect too much out of any Fridays, but the way this one disappoints is just too severe and too often. Normally I let it slide or whatever, but my latest encounter was too ridiculous. The service was pretty good. Our waiter was fairly attentive and genuinely apologetic when the kitchen forgot some things we ordered. I ordered a bucket of bones which features ribs, wings, and fries. The ribs were burnt, which you can clearly see in the photo, wings were incredibly small and dry, and the fries tasted old. I also had a side salad and it was pretty decent. Now let's talk about the "ambiance" that was polluted by a mother and her two girls poor behavior. The girls who were old enough to know better, treated the establishment like a playground and decided to run and jump barefoot across several booths and seats, climbing over dividers, and hang from ledges. As if that wasn't enough, no one, parent nor management, found it necessary to address the inconsiderate behavior. Honestly, if you mustttt get Fridays then order to go/pickup to avoid the inevitable foolishness.

La primera vez que fui ordené cerveza y estaba bien fría y por eso regresé una segunda vez pero ya no fue igual estaba caliente, regresé una tercera vez esperando que volviera a estar fría pero me sirvieron cerveza caliente, al parecer tienen problema con el compartimento Don de almacenan los barriles, el bartender tarda mucho tiempo en atender, el cóctel de camarones me lo sirvieron a la mitad hasta que tuve que ordenar otro y lo pudrieron llenar como yo esperaba

My friends !!

NIKKI our amazing bartender was exceptional. Fun And soooo nice. I brought my Australian friends here and they were so happy. Her drink recipes are first class! We felt right at home. We will be back ! Thank you Nikki!

BEST experience. Food and drinks were 10/10. Service at the bar was great. Can't wait to come back!

If I could leave this 0 stars, I would have. The GM Justin is extremely rude!! I ordered two apps pot stickers and mozzarella sticks, they were both like $5 and $5.50 for three piece each!! Total rip off and before I could send it back my kids dug into it then I asked for a burger cooked med raw when they bought that out it was well done as soon as I cut into it I told them I'm not paying for it and sent it back the gm offered to cook another I said nope bc I know y'all will spit in it.

I'm sure I have had Colombian food before, but it has been quite a while and Barriles was my first…read moreauthentic "newer" Colombian place to try. Came here for a little small belated birthday dinner for a friend and we had a very nice time. We each just had a dish since we knew the portions are BIG. The menu is extensive and there was a lot to choose from. They even offer some Mexican and Italian dish options. I had the Grilled Skirt Steak (Monterey), which was SO BIG I had leftover for lunch the next day. :) the meat was pretty tender and juicy. The dish came with tostones (big) and rice. We were also served salads to start. What stands out a lot is the amazing service here. They are so polite, friendly, patient and helpful. The restaurant definitely seemed staffed properly which I suppose was a good thing because as the night progressed, the place filled up (for a Thursday night). My friends had the salmon and the Chicken Franchise. I took off just one star because they ended up charging my friends twice (but rectified the mistake), hopefully her funds will sort out. They also charge extra if you want to make any side substitutions... which isn't kind of crappy. The place is also beautifully decorated and spacious. Will def be back very soon! Next time we'll partake in an adult beverage maybe :)

This has been my spot for many years for happy hours, dinner and to watch soccer games…read more It is a large restaurant so you can usually find a spot at the bar or at a table. But when there are big soccer events, it can get very packed. I especially like their frozen passion fruit margarita because it is sweet and strong with a tajin rim. All of their food is delicious, especially their picada which comes with a variety of meat; chicken, chicharrón, sausage and potato. The chicharrón is always crunchy and all the dipping sauces pair so well with everything in the picada. The vibe inside the restaurant is always very fun with good music playing in the background and the bar always has very friendly staff. If you are ever in the Jackson heights area, you should give them a try.
