Great Vibes & Even Better Drinks!…read more I stopped by The Connect Bar in Jamaica, Queens, and I'm so glad I did! It's a Black-owned, women-owned spot that brings such great energy to the neighborhood. The service was excellent, and the bartender -- though I didn't catch her name -- was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. I ordered a Mango Margarita, which was perfectly balanced and refreshing, and my niece had one of their non-alcoholic drinks, which she loved -- it's great to see they have something for everyone. The atmosphere was chill yet lively, and you can tell it's a place built with love for the community. I'll definitely be back soon -- so happy to have a place like this right here in Queens!

I must say the environment is very chill. I came here for hookah and it was a good chance. It's my…read morefirst time being here. The staff is very attentive great music and good vibes. The hookah is hitting hard. Definitely a place to try out. Ask for the bartender Trish.

Not all lounges are made equal, and the Sapphire lounge at JFK sits in the same class as Centurion…read moreand Capital One's new lounge. You can debate the nuances of each-- Centurion's food is better, Capital One's is larger and has a cheese monger, Ess a Bagel, and better cocktails. But compared to the sort of lounges that don't have their own bathrooms and offer nothing more than some bananas and cereal, you really could do worse. The Sapphire lounge in LGA is larger and prettier, but they pretty much offer the same amenities. The bathrooms have been clean every time I've visited, save for one time. The menu isn't vast but there's a little buffet station with fresh fruit and hot food, as well as a made to order menu with full sized portions. Sometimes the food has been quick, and other times it has taken a while, so you really should give yourself some buffer time if you're trying to get something from the made to order menu. The food is fine. I've visited enough times to say that the folks who work here have been so warm and nice each time, checking in and asking guests how they're doing. Garbage is cleaned up immediately, so it's a pretty well oiled machine in there. You can bring up to 2 guests and any additional guests cost just $27 more, which I'd say it's worth it, particularly if you have a long layover and will have a couple of drinks.

Under the level of the Chase lounge in LGA, but in the same tier, I'd say. The buffet food is…read morecurated and good (the chicken thighs in the mushroom sauce was my favorite). I'm not a big fan of the cocktails, but perhaps I haven't found the one that I like yet (I had a whiskey drink that I can't pronounce that was just alright). There was a waitlist when I went, but they were handing out free snacks when you went to register.

Unlike chase sapphire next door, there was always a mob waiting. Food quality has declined tho. One protein, one carb, a couple salads, and a soup. Generic cookies for desserts. Only whole orange as fresh fruit. I did appreciate that they had a fresh ice cream station during lunch time. The coconut ice cream was really yummy! Although they had plenty of seatings, the chairs weren't comfortable. The tables were tiny.

We were seated immediately, it wasn't crowded but we came in between brunch and dinner so we had to wait until after 5 to order for dinner. Our waiter was Garnett, a very nice and attentive young man. Our order is in the pictures below. The food was really good, I will be returning to try other items on the menu. My one complaint is I have to pay $.75 for some gravy that was really greasy but I got over that after tasting the food . We were given some complimentary bun and cheese to take home after our meal.

The mango jerk wings were good but the oxtail boa buns were a big no. The buns were dry and there was barely any oxtail in it--The bottom was filled with coleslaw to fluff it up. It was on the pricier side which was shocking for 2 starters and one lil drink. The service was good, we sat at the bar so it was what you would expect. Would I go back? Yes, to try the entrees.
