    Made a reservation for 5:30 PM on a Saturday however I showed up a half hour early and the place was somewhat empty so unsure if reservation was truly necessary. After we settled down and ordered our startup cocktail, we proceeded to the dinner menu and to be quite honest, everything came out appealing and very appetizing. I have nothing negative to comment. Overall, a nice local establishment with great hospitality and I will no doubt I'll be back soon and try the rest of the menu.

    Unfortunately, I have to lower my rating to 2 stars. Six months ago I did enjoy my meal here, but things went downhill on my second visit. The same salad we ordered on our first visit wasn't that great and the dressing tasted off. I also ordered the same Mac and cheese which I had on my previous visit and this time it was terrible! It was overloaded with big, chunky breadcrumbs and the cheese used wasn't tasty. My husband didn't enjoy his Fried chicken and thought it tasted off. My sister thought her Chicken sandwich was good. I can't recommend after my last meal here.

    Very low key, nice ambiance with dim lighting. Good for date night or friend hangout. Food was good, I loved my short rib tacos. The meat was super flavorful. My boyfriend enjoyed his burger. Now... the fried pickles. I'm begging them to either call them "fried pickle chips" or cut the pickles thicker. They were all fried and no pickle... super disappointed in them.

    The Pomeroy delivered on flavor but missed the mark on execution. Setting: Rustic and stylish with an inviting, upscale neighborhood feel. Bar and seating are plentiful indoors. Service: Attentive and confident--our waiter was reassuring, though the kitchen slipped on the steak temp. Food: I ordered the Thursday Ribeye special, and while full of incredible flavor, it came out medium well instead of medium rare. That said, the steak quesadilla was absolutely delicious and made up for the miss.

    I want to first start off by saying my server was absolutely fantastic. He was very friendly, gave me recommendations, kept coming over, checking in and giving updates during this pretty long ordeal that felt like over two hours of being in this restaurant by myself. I ordered the Astoria Sunrise mocktail and it honestly was divine. The bar was set high. Then I got the whipped ricotta and I was very intrigued by the presentation, it was definitely way more than I thought I would be getting so I started having second thoughts since I was alone, but the bread was thin and crispy, the honey was a nice surprise in a little well within the ricotta. I just wish the ricotta would've been seasoned a bit more thoroughly to really show off how the salty and sweetness of ricotta and honey can really compliment each other. I ordered the pork chops and was very thankful that my server kept coming back to update me on why it was taking so long. He brought out more bread for the ricotta in the meantime. After about 45 minutes he told me that the cut they used for my pork chop happened to be really big and that they were trying to make sure it was cooked all the way through and that it would be out soon. I ended waiting over an hour for the pork chop and my god was the thing absolutely HUGE. It had to be over 2 inches thick and was still on the bone. Just as I suspected with a piece of meat that was being cooked for so long, it was positively charred on the outside. Not seared, not just browned... burnt and charred. The sweet potato puree, apple topping and asparagus were great and I'm sure it would've gone well with a perfectly cooked pork chop but this one should not have been served. I could barely cut through it, didn't even get to eat more than half of it after giving up because I couldn't tell if I was trying to cut through bone or tough, overcooked bits. It really was such a shame given that I was recommended this place by a friend and the server was just so good as his job. Not to mention how expensive it was after all that, I paid over $70 not including the tip. I'm really only not rating this lower because of the server and the rest of the meal minus the chop itself, but the more I think about it the more I am disappointed that no one thought to abandon the idea of serving this huge burnt hunk of meat to me.

    First brunch in Astoria and we decided on The Pomeroy, my friends and I were drawn to the Chicken and Waffle pictures and was the main factor why LOL. Anyway, pretty cool place. Surprisingly not packed on a Saturday at 1PM but we took that as more space for us then. :) Maria was our waitress and she took good care of us. Funnily enough we all went for the Steak & Eggs for the protein kick but since Chicken and Waffles were the reason why we were there, we decided to order it for the table so we can share. Steak & Eggs were good, came with potatoes & greens. Chicken & Waffles were yum and we couldn't finish it (no surprise) and didn't really need to take it home since we were all heading somewhere after. My friends went for the 90 mins. Bottomless drinks for $20 where they could interchange mimosas, bloody marys etc. I went for the Astoria Sunrise mocktail which was pretty good actually for $10 each. Prices are pretty fair and can appreciate that. Great value for brunch!

    Pomeroy located in Astoria on Ditmars Blvd is lively bar and restaurant. The service was excellent. I had the fish tacos and they were amazing. My gal pal had the honey chipotle wings. They were outstanding. Nice selection of beers on the tap. The owner sits on the end of the bar. He goes to check on every table. Great atmosphere. We will definitely come back again. When I was leaving I noticed they have a happy hour. Woohoo!

    Okay absolutely LOVED this place! There were just shy of 10 of us for lunch and not one meal disappointed. We had their lunch specials, incredible! Quesadillas, burgers, chicken sandwiches, and salads. All rated at least an 8! Love the vintage decor, rustic look. Also loved the service from both the wait staff as well as the kitchen. Will definitely be back soon!!

    I came here for brunch or lunch with a group of girls. The location was great as it's not too far from the train and it's in a busy area. It's best to make reservations for a Saturday afternoon. The service was great. They have bottomless brunch if you're into that, but none of us chose that option. I wanted something hearty so ordered the steak & eggs. It's grilled skirt steak topped with chimichurri and eggs served with home fries and salad. I don't have any complaints, except that I had to ask for hot sauce and pepper as the meat was dry. They also ask how you would like your eggs and I said over easy. It was fine. The only complaint was the steak.

    Menu

    Some good aspects, with some of the menu being hit or miss for us. The fish tacos were good, well-cooked and not overdone, with good flavor. The textures are a bit too monotonous and mushy with a puréed avocado sauce, a solid/chunky guacamole might suit it better. Fries were great. Mac and cheese was good and standard, lots of breadcrumbs, was New American style vs. southern/soul. Dates were fine, popular dish in Queens so better ones have been had. Brussels sprouts were under and over cooked--tough and chewy inside with burnt flavor film outside, no true crisp in either direction. Good ambiance although quite dark. Could be a good date spot. Service was ok and could improve. Overall was fine and glad to try, but wouldn't feel a need to return, unless maybe for drinks.

    A Perfectly Cozy Date Night at The Pomeroy! We celebrated two weeks of being married with a date night at The Pomeroy during Astoria Restaurant Week, and it was fantastic! We chose to sit at the corner of the bar instead of a table (plenty were available), and it turned out to be a perfect cozy spot for people-watching and soaking in the vibe. I ordered the Restaurant Week special and kicked things off with the frickles - crispy, tangy, and paired with a sauce that was chef's kiss. We also requested the chipotle dipping sauce, which added a spicy kick - highly recommend doing both! For the main, I had the braised beef with creamy mashed potatoes, carrots, and asparagus. Every bite was hearty and full of flavor. For dessert, they had run out of the apple pie, which worked out perfectly because I had secretly hoped to sub in the cheesecake - and it did not disappoint! Creamy, sweet, and indulgent. To sip: I had a pilsner, a glass of prosecco, and an espresso martini (because why not celebrate properly?) - all were excellent and balanced. My husband got the salmon, served with a bright vegetable medley and a vibrant green sauce. He loved it. He kept it classic with Tito's martinis, straight up with a twist - smooth and strong, just the way he likes them. We shared the frickles, split my cheesecake, and he also had the crème brûlée, which was beautifully torched and perfectly creamy underneath. The service was fast, super friendly, and genuinely kind - plus, even the water came in chilled glasses, which is such a small touch but speaks volumes. The atmosphere was lively and fun, and while there were a few overly enthusiastic bar patrons (it was a Saturday night, after all), it didn't take away from the warm and vibrant energy of the place. We left happy, full, and already planning to come back. Thanks, Pomeroy, for a night to remember

    Omelette of the day
    Ginger B.

    Bottomless brunch. Good food and portions. 3 people late Saturday afternoon, reserved ahead of time but wasn't packed today so we didn't even need the reservation. French toast, omelette of the day, huevos rancheros. 2 of us added bottomless brunch cocktails. I wouldn't get the huevos rancheros again, it's buried in tortilla strips and there wasn't much tomato sauce. Next time I'll get the omelette. Note on the menu that there is an extra charge for credit cards. (I thought restaurants in NYS are supposed to list credit card prices on the menu?) I would come back for something different. Had a taste of the omelette, it was good and comes with a lot (potatoes, salad, toast)

    This was the first stop we grabbed drinks after getting off our flight and the ambience. The music and the bartender was amazing. Recommend this place for sure they have weekly specials. They're happy hour is amazing and their drinks are tasty.

After posting my review, the owner reached out to me directly to understand what happened with the bill. I shared the details of our visit and they took the time to review the check with their team. They confirmed that the bill was handled incorrectly on their end, apologized for both the mistake and how it was addressed at the table, and offered to make the situation right. What really stood out to me was their willingness to listen, investigate, and take responsibility. Not every business does that, and it speaks well about their integrity and commitment to customer service. To be fair, during the visit itself: The food was good The drinks were very good The bartender was friendly and attentive The issue was mainly the billing error and how it was initially handled, but management stepped in and addressed it properly. Because of that, I'm updating my review and I'm willing to give them another try. Not only because we enjoyed the food, but because the way they handled the situation showed professionalism and respect for their customers

Ambiance was fun with the music. Only wish the sound system would have been better to enjoy the music more. The calamari was the best app we had. Shrimp was garlic was tasteless and the wings were pretty tasty. The steak picanha was really delicious. Love that cut of meat. We ordered medium rare and it was a good choice.
