It was uncomfortable since our knees bumped into the table. However, we did not have to wait! We had immediate service any time we wanted it because someone was always behind the bar. Food (5/5): This is the best Indian food I've had in Queens!! Every since dish is packed with flavor, depth in the sauce and meats, and reasonably priced!! I liked how much sauce was in every dish. Samosa was perfect. The Goat Mandras was my favorite with a sauce that has spice but not super spicy considering the red chili symbol. Chicken Tikka was also very good. My garlic naan was SO good, has a crunch on one side but airy soft to bite. Unlimited little rice bowls?! This will be our go-to Indian after our first experience.

The food was good but I don't know that I'd make a special trip out of it. The paneer is homemade but I've had creamier paneer elsewhere. I was impressed by the tender chicken in the biryani but could have used with a bit more of it. The curry also comes with plain rice so we had plenty of carbs.

Its a small mom and pop shop so I was excited for its authentic and variety of Indonesian dishes. Their menu was quite big so I appreciated the QR code to see pictures. Started off with the Sate Padang (A4) which were beef tongue skewers in a curry-like sauce. Interestingly the skewers had different textures from tender pieces to harder/chewier cuts. The sauce was spicy and less creamy than a traditional curry that went well with the rice cakes. The Nasi Ayam Goreng Urap (R15) featured fried chicken as well as mixed veggies with shredded coconut. Loved a sweet-savory part of the veggies and how the coconut gave it an extra chew. Rice, chicken, and sambal was the perfect combo for each bite. The Kari Bihun (N7) had the rice vermicelli that I was craving. Their curry soup was spicy and aromatic. Loved how the vermicelli was cooked just right and stayed intact/chewy throughout my meal. Enjoyed the mix of tofu skin, tofu puff, fish cakes, fish balls, egg, and beansprouts! I was getting too full to check out their desserts/drinks but definitely want to try their cendol next time! It was popping late on a weekend so service was alright. Took a while to place our orders but food came out at a reasonable time!

I'm always trying to find a nice Mediterranean spot in Astoria for good chicken kebab and hummus,…read moreso I was really happy to stumble across this restaurant! I don't always want to spend over $100 just to have a simple meal, and sometimes all I need is a good chicken kebab combo with some rice, salad, or hummus on the side. It's simple, satisfying, and they always give you plenty of pita bread, so I'm definitely not leaving hungry. Food: 4/5 The chicken kebab is super tender, and from what I've seen, people who order the mixed meat platter seem really happy with the combination of lamb and chicken. Personally, I love their hummus. It's super tasty, and the salad with pickled vegetables is a nice touch that adds a little extra flavor to the meal. They do have other entrées on the menu, too, but since I avoid dairy, my options are a little more limited. That said, I've heard good things about their other dishes from people who have tried them. Overall, it's the kind of place where you can get a solid, satisfying Mediterranean meal without breaking the bank, and sometimes that's exactly what I'm looking for. Service:5/5 This is more of a casual, order-at-the-counter setup than a traditional sit-down restaurant. You place your order at the front, and they bring the food to your table. After that, though, you're pretty much on your own rather than having consistent table service with someone checking in on you throughout the meal. The restaurant is also quite small inside, especially when the outdoor seating area isn't open, so the experience is pretty straightforward: order, eat, and enjoy yourself. Personally, I don't need a lot of hand-holding during a dining experience, so this setup works perfectly fine for me. I can understand, though, how someone who prefers more attentive table service might find it a little lacking. Vibe: 5/5 It's super casual, and nobody should feel stressed about dining here. It's all good times! I've never felt bothered or rushed while eating here. I can just get my food, hang out with friends, enjoy my meal, and leave whenever I'm ready. Sometimes you don't need a fancy dining experience. You just want somewhere comfortable where you can relax and have a good meal, and this place delivers on that. All in all, I'd definitely come back! My only complaint is that it isn't quite as close to where I live as I'd like, but whenever I'm in the area, it's always a great place to visit. If you're looking for a casual Mediterranean spot in Astoria with tender chicken kebab, tasty hummus, generous pita, and reasonable prices, this is definitely worth checking out.

Food (5/5): We both ordered platters with different kinds of meat. You can't go wrong with the shawarma, both the chicken and the beef were well seasoned and juicy. I got the koufta which is minced meat with spices and enjoyed it. It took about 20 minutes for both of dishes to get ready. The cashier hooked us up with spicy and white sauce bottles so we could add to our hearts content. The pitas were just okay but nice to enjoy the meal with. Nutella baklava was fire.

The food has always been freshly prepared, in large portions, and cooked quite well. I'm thankful that has not changed much. On my most recent visit, we got a Mix Grilled and Vegetarian Plate to share between four people. There was so much food that we did not have dessert next door as originally planned. Prices are higher nowadays, but you are receiving great value for what you pay. Both chicken shawarma and the beef kufta from the Mix Grilled tasted great, especially with the provided zesty white sauce. I also added hot sauce to mine, which made it more satisfying. The chicken kebab was not bad, it had a nice char, but slightly dry. All of the accompanying humus (a bit salty), salad, rice, and garlic pita were excellent too. For the Vegetarian Plate, though good, I would like the falafels to be fluffier. The best things I enjoyed on the plate was the fried eggplants and baba ghanosh. It also comes with cous cous, which was good. Fresh middle eastern cuisine, made with quality ingredients and care, this restaurant may not be my first choice in Astoria because it's not as sexy as some of the other offerings, but I'm glad that they are still around when I just want a quality meal at a reasonable price.
