Dana D. • November 11, 2015Fantastic new addition to Sunnyside! A staple tent at Smorgasburg, great to see Cemitas with a brick-and-mortar venue. Fantastic sandwiches, burritos, and tacos in a cozy atmosphere. A must visit.

Serious Eats • September 25, 2013Lebanese grocery and lunch counter with some of the best shawarma in the city. Don't overlook the steam table—just ask for what's fresh and delicious that day.

Andrew B. • May 10, 2014They just opened a completely new restaurant right next door. Really nice. People are super friendly here and the food is great!

Jase E. • January 15, 2017The Taste of Japan flavors of Yuzu (yeast) and Black Sesame (filled) are incredible. Coming back for more!

Ryan W. • April 13, 2017Easily the best pizza in the neighborhood and probably top 5 in all of queens.

Czarina B. • March 25, 2018Been going to this place a lot since opening. It is my favorite coffee shop in Sunnyside! Stumptown coffee, Balthazar pastries, sandwiches, and friendly staff. Also a coffee rewards card 👍

Scott L. • June 14, 2013The Tinga Quesadilla is the best I've ever had. Super juicy, just the right amount of spice and rich flavor.

Racky R. • December 6, 2014This is the best Korean restaurant in queens. The live octopus and fresh seafood are something else. You can also come just to enjoy soju at the bar. Great environment.

Chad H. • September 20, 2017the tacos are the main attraction but do not overlook the quesadillas, which are stuffed!

Elvis R. • November 26, 2023Authentic and homemade- fresh, simple and flavorful. Get the cevice, the Bandera (a plate consisting of all 3 of their well house dishes- tripe, ceviche and goat stew), flan and black berry shake!

Ray L. • August 22, 2012Rustic feel with long wooden tables tucked away in a corner of LIC. The garlic frites are terrific (share!) and the beer selection is golden (fav is the Left Hand Sawtooth).

Bryant B. • April 24, 2017Insane variety of beans. The iced coffee comes with coffee cubes. The whole thing is no frills so don't expect any fancy lattes or latte art for that matter.

Roxana G. • December 31, 2013Great fresh pastries with mushrooms or meat or cheese; even better the "hedgehog cake" (small version: ask for a chocolate potato), les Savarines, Diplomat, Kataif...too many to count!!!

Karen • December 30, 2022The almond croissants are so decadents. All the delicious layers.

Julia D. • September 18, 2016The new brunch menu is exactly what we needed in this neighborhood. I had the kale omelette and it was delish, filling and somewhat healthy feeling for brunch.

Heyjin K. • November 17, 2013Probably one of the best sushi place in NYC. Try uni-don w/ day special sashimi. (+ the ladies are very nice like your mom.)

Cyberman • July 6, 2013Best tacos I've had in New York. That simple.
