    Went to check this spot out as my friends only eat Halal Meat ! This is a halal steak house , serving up a bit of everything. From wings , burgers , pasta to steak. There aren't many halal steakhouses in NY , especially not in Queens. We walked in , we were greeted and seated right away. Our host/waitress was very nice. For once I was actually excited to eat , ambiance was beautiful and very modern. Now on to the food , we ordered 2 ordered of Buffalo wings and they were delicious as appetizers. Friends ordered burgers , some chicken dish and I ordered NY strip 7oz Steak (medium). Oh boy my steak came out Well Done!! Loved the peppercorn sauce on it !! But I have always encountered this problem at Halal Steakhouse that they never get the temperature correct. Wasn't too mad as it was only $26. Great presentation! Service - 10/10 Food - 6/10 Parking - Street Good for Large Groups

    Was looking for a halal restaurant that served steak so came upon this restaurant. Made reservation for 8:45pm however we waited 35 minutes prior to being seated, which defeats the purpose of making a reservation! Disappointed that they were out of stuffed jalapeño peppers as we were really looking forward to it. They also ran out of Coke. How do you run out of coke? Restaurant was very crowded but it was a Saturday after all. Waiter was attentive but had to ask to get water refilled. This place has potential but recommend good management to run this place in order for it to become successful. The table was being set as we were being seated and the glasses and floors were dirty which should not be the case in a restaurant like this. Food was good but my filet mignon was bland. Caesar salad was yummy! Pointers: - serve salad on a bowl and not a plate as it gets messy - fajita toppings should also be served on a bigger plate as it made it difficult to make the fajita - pasta should be creamy, not watery

    Local place but not up to quality to what a real steakhouse should be. Here is the rundown: Mash potatoes; Cold and bland Poutine; please... Steak; cooked well. Under seasoned. Calamari; it was ok. Looked like mini onion rings. Dessert: Very good. Service was ok. It's BYOB. Good to know beforehand. Gotta step it up Affy.

    All the dishes!

    We reserved for a group of 6 to celebrate a birthday dinner. Upon arrival, the ambiance is modern and lights are dim. We were seated right away and the Spanish waitress was excellent!! We ordered multiple appetizers such as crispy calamari, fish and chips, wings, and nachos. Everything was perfect (my favorite was the wings). They also give sauces on the side. The nachos should have had the cheese melted on top and been presented better, as it did not look appetizing. Entrees we got were a variety and we also got different types of drinks from the menu. The steak was good, combination fajita (I got steak and chicken) with rice was a hit and everything on the menu had excellent flavor. I believe the chef is very skilled! 2 issues we had was one of the steak orders had 90% fat, so we were given the option for a refund or a new steak. Another issue we had was one of the chicken + shrimp dishes; chicken was hard like deep fried and was not edible. The server quickly swapped the chicken for a new one and we were happy. Drinks: the pina colada was sweet and excellent! If you like more of savory drink, go for the lime or mango mocktails. If you like a strawberry drink, take the 1 strawberry drink they have - taste like jolly rancher. We also had a surprise for the birthday girl and got chocolate lava, which was big and delicious! I would definitely come back to this establishment as they know how to serve their customers and their food items have huge portions.

    I came here with my wife for some halal steak, and we left very pleased. We made reservations on Yelp and were seated immediately. They brought out free chips and salsa while we wait. The restaurant itself is pretty big from the inside, and the lighting ambiance is amazing. Date night friendly! Also their bathroom is like a hotel bathroom, very well maintained and kind of classy. Let's jump to the food. For appetizers we got the dusted chicken wings; they allowed us to split the flavors in half so we did half wings of Affy's BBQ and half of buffalo flavor. The buffalo flavor was average, but Affys BBQ was perfect! It's not your typical BBQ flavor, it has more heat and some extra tang! Almost like they put chaat masala(IYKYK) on there. 10/10! We got some drinks. It's worth mentioning all of their drinks are non-alcoholic and I was very pleased with this. My wife got the Mojito and I got the Pina colada. The Mojito was okay in my opinion but my wife liked it. The Pina Colda was like a pineapple bliss milkshake. Absolutely delicious, and on the sweeter side. For food I ordered their NY steak 14 OZ, as medium well with pepricorn sauce. If I have anything bad to say it will be about the preparation of this steak. The steak itself was very high quality. Lots of meat on it and not too fatty. However, it was super chewy almost like every bite was like chewing gum and then forcing yourself to swallow it. Chefs please do research on how to properly prepare steak. I ate about half and brought the rest home, and then I added some butter and cooked it for a 2 mins on low heat and it was perfect! It came with 2 sides; so i got the fries (upgraded to Poutine for $1.5 extra) and also got steamed veggies (to be a little healthy lol). My wife got the combination fajitas which was essentially a combination of chicken and steak. It came on a sizzler plate and with lots of sides for you to make your own mini tacos. This was an absolute hit! Must try. 10/10. All and all we had a great experience, the staff was also super kind, and the ambiance was great! Also they include a 15% gratuity on all bills, so please don't feel obliged to tip. My only recommendation for the restaurant would be to research on how to better prepare steaks!

    The experience was closer to a 3/3.5 but it doesn't feel quite close enough to a four for me to round up so we're going to stick to 3 stars. Because they're in their soft opening there's a lot of menu items not presently available and no to go menus or business cards. There was only one waitress working too. The 15% tip already being included in definitely convenient but I can imagine it's also frustrating for customers who don't end up even getting good service. Our waitress did her job well nonetheless, answering all our questions and checking up on us to make sure everything was okay during the meal so I wasn't really mad about it. It alleviated having to do any math at the end. I appreciated that she told us when I asked to upgrade poutine fries that there would be an added cost of 1.50 because a lot of times some servers won't mention it and you'll just be slapped with the additional cost. I wish our drinks had been brought out first (instead they came after our food) because we were sitting for a while waiting which is fine because a friend and I were here for a catch up but having drinks to enjoy during the wait would've been nice. The pina colada was almost milkshake-y and I LOVED that about it. Good flavor. Pretty presentation. Very refreshing. Tasted a hint of coconut in there as well which usually is the flavor profile that ends up totally being a miss with these drinks. The food was just okay but I enjoyed the experience overall. The ambiance is lovely, well decorated, clean, and beautifully furnished. Appreciated the complimentary chips and salsa. There was definitely some good seasoning on the chips but my friend and I put them aside so we didn't fill up before our meal. I was pleasantly surprised that an order of the NY strip steak came with not one but two sides so my friend and I opted for the mashed potatoes (which came with gravy) and upgraded the fries to poutine fries. The poutine fries were crispy and a little too salty and uh they were the worst excuse for poutine you could possibly have. BUT they were enjoyable besides that. It's just the name that is misleading and poutine purists would be horrified to find the fries are thin, the cheese is shredded, and where's the gravy (barely there)? But since this is America and not Canada I'm assuming people won't be too mad. (I just got back from a trip to Canada and had a little poutine adventure while there so I had been hoping and expecting for the real deal here especially since I hear affy's started in Canada then came here). ANYWAY fries are fries and cheese always makes things better so I was not MAD. Back to the strip steak. All come with onions and mushrooms and you can decide if you want peppercorn gravy or Cajun lemon butter. We opted for the former because it was supposed to be "spicy." It wasn't. I haven't experience with steak because this is actually the first halal steak I've had at a restaurant in my life so I really can't compare it to anything else. There was a whole chunk of fat on it which I discarded and felt like a waste of an ounce or so on the steak because I was here for MEAT but texture wise it was definitely very squidgy and soft. It was fine. I was honestly just happy to be here and trying my first halal steak LOL. I liked the flavor of the BBQ ribs but naturally there's barely any meat on it. We chose a baked potato for our side with this one and it came with cheese and sour cream. It was a baby potato. And it was then we realized all three of our sides had been potatoes. I wish there had been mac and cheese but I suspect it would've likely been kinda mid. Portions overall were large but considering how little meat there are on ribs, the size of the ribs aren't going to all add up to meat. The steak knives were kind of awful and it took a lot of sawing to even cut through the steak. The food wasn't exactly hot either, kinda warm teetering on lukewarm. I got a burger to go for my brother and really loved that the burger options included fries in the cost as well because usually you'll get a burger alone for 12-15 bucks with no fries whereas that was not the case at all here. The cut of meat was very thick and he seemed to like it so definitely something to check out. In conclusion (lol), since they're so new I definitely cut them a lot of slack. Once all the kinks are worked out I have no doubt they'll have a promising future ahead. Wishing the team at Affy's all the best!

    Tldr: overall pretty mid Opened up a new location aside from the Brooklyn one on Grand Avenue. Food is a hit or miss, don't get the ribs pretty mid. Do get the calamari and dusted chicken wings so flavorful (9/10). Our table of 6 ordered 3 apps and 6 entrees with the total coming out to the $306 (automatic 15% gratuity included). Food came out pretty slow (40 min wait?) and service was alright.

    Everything was perfect, the mood of the restaurant was amazing. The atmosphere was pleasant to my family. The food was very tasty, my mother enjoyed it a lot. The service was a 10/10. We received complimentary brownies too. Thank you to tatiana and employees of affys.

    This was my first time eating at Affy's Grill and honestly Im really not sure what the hype is about. The food was not flavorful and It made me feel bloated and disgusted afterwards. But let's be honest the picture looks great thanks to my photography. I cannot speak ill about the place however. The staff was great and respectful and the place was nice and clean. That is the only reason I gave 2 stars. The food itself gets a 0.5 star rating. Honestly guys what is the hype about? I had better food at the gyro cart .

    The "Emoji Burger" Debrief ​Attempted to have a "civilized"…read morefamily dinner at Emoji Burger in Jackson Heights. Within ten minutes, it became a full-contact sport involving napkins and a high probability of a food coma. ​The Lineup: ​The Ori Emo: Pure Pat LaFrieda beef doing the heavy lifting. Classic, juicy, and gone in about four bites. ​Da Wink: Added applewood bacon because we aren't here to play it safe. It's "wink-at-your-trainer-while-you-skip-the-gym" good. ​Weary Fries: Appropriately named. Between the mozzarella, grilled corn, and double aioli, these fries are so heavy they should come with a structural engineering permit. ​BBQ Wings: Hand-battered, crispy, and sweet. The only thing they didn't survive was my sons. ​The Finish Line: We topped it off with a chocolate shake thick enough to defy physics and their famous bread pudding. That bread pudding is a rich, custard-soaked masterpiece that honestly deserves its own jersey. ​We're currently sitting in the car wondering if we'll ever need to eat again. 10/10 would definitely roll out of here again. ​ Emoji Burger | 80-07 37th Ave, Queens Vibe: Deliciously messy. Status: Defeated by the Weary Fries.

So many pistachios--I'd eat this daily and would return for this!
