The best octopus this side of Greece. The calamari is not bad either. Lemon potatoes as a side are a great compliment. The fried potatoes were not as appreciated.

Went to Uncle Jackâs for my birthday as we have done on many other occasions. Was greeted professionally, seated promptly, and continued to have excellent service. Bad news for us was that food was not worth the money. My wife and daughter had three Cosmos each. They were tiny sized, and seemed to have little or no alcohol. I didnot see price as my daughter did not let me see the bill, but she said they were way too expensive, and not worth the money. Roll basket came, and we asked the waiter for the flat bread they used to serve. He said they were no longer offered. Basket came with 1 onion roll, one raisin roll and one plain roll. When we asked for some additional onion rolls waiter said they no longer served them. When we mentioned that other tables were getting them, he was surprised and found us some. Food came, with shrimp and crab appetizers being good, but not worth the money. We had a lobster tail (usually do not have whole lobsters as most steak housed do) which was watery, probably just defrosted, just so-so, and certainly a ripoff at $40. The steak was just okay, the pork chop also just okay. On a recent trip to the Palm, everything we ordered was above our expectations. Here, for similar or greater prices just about everything was below what we expected. We believe they are trying too hard to increase profits by making food sacrifices. When my daughter paid the bill, which I am certain was over $400, she cringed for the prices for just average food and drinks. When my daughter got the bill she noticed a charge of over $10 for credit card processing. Again unheard of for a supposed top steak house. When questioned the waiter said okay, he would remove it.We will certainly not be returning for other occasions after being so disappointed on this visit.

This restaurant did not get a Michelin star but was written up as a "notable" destination. On closer examination they liked the main courses, and we went for Dim Sum. Very good variety of dim sum but really poor quality.One of the many tests of a place like this are the rice noodle dishes. At their best the noodle is soft and chewy and very thin. These were thick and doughy. Congee is another test of mine and this one was thin and watery and missing the many great ingredients associated with this dish. First congee I did not finish and I have a pretty wide latitude.The food was tired, and many of the dishes had been around too long before serving, although we arrived at 11AM as the appointed hour to get the freshest dishes. We had the custard tart desserts, and although the crust was flakey and good, the custard itself was not at its freshest.We did get good chrysanthemum tea by having Siri translate it into Mandarin.

It's a bit out of the way in College Point and the parking lot can get crowded, but the food is pretty good with a good variety of Asian choices. We came early on a Saturday at 5:30pm. The place was not crowded yet and everything was well-stocked. The restaurant looked clean and well-maintained. If you're facing west, you get a nice glimpse of sunset and the Manhattan skyline.

We came for a family celebration. This is certainly our favorite Greek restaurant and possibly our favorite family restaurant. We have been coming here since Farias opened. Our little kids love the octopus grilled. We enjoyed for appetizer A delicious summer salad with water billing. We also had fried calamari, so I cannot do,. For entrées several of us had swordfish steak, lamb chops, branzino, and stuff flounder. Everything was fabulous. The house was great as was the Greek beer and a delicious coffee frappe.We were very fortunate to see Maria, the owner and famous chef from the TV show âChoppedâ. She received a big award the same day for being an outstanding immigrant business woman in Queens County. Maria is just great.This is a lovely family-owned restaurant with fabulous food. We recommend reservations.

I was curious to try Concettina after reading several excellent TA reviews about this newish restaurant. I wasn't confident I'd enjoy my dining experience as the online menu options were limited. Surprisingly, our server recited an extensive list of exciting appetizer and entree specials. If I were to try to name the dishes we ordered, I would be doing Concettina a disservice. Let's just say, my husband and I ordered different osso bucco dishes. Mine was made with fresh pasta, carrots and onions. My husband's was prepared as a parmigiana, huge enough to be dinner for three. Our food was sensational, the presentation was very special, and the service was superior. There are definitely several other dishes I'd love to try, and so I hope to return soon.
