It's definitely a neighborhood bar. It wasn't a small place which I liked so, I liked how it wasn't crowded and there is room and no lines for the bathroom. Regarding the food, I enjoyed the Reuben spring rolls, and meatball sliders were very tasty. The house made chips were really good too. But the other items like the wings in the Thai chili sauce were just okay. The IPA drink that supposedly tastes like blueberry didn't. All in all, I'm not sure if I'll be returning.

Despite being right next to the 61st St stop, The Dugout is one of the lesser frequented Irish pubs…read morein Woodside. It reminds me a time in the neighborhood when Irish folks were the majority and when times were so much more simple. This pub is low key, rarely crowded, somewhat easy to miss, and extremely local. The place reminds me a ton of the Courtyard Ale House in Sunnyside, from the exterior to the darkly lit interior with an intimate bar setup. They too had an outdoor setup during the pandemic. The bartenders are friendly enough and the clientele is a lot of older folks that drink alone. There are some TVs, which are as small as the pub itself. The drink selection is pretty basic with some bottled beer and some limited taps. Whether it's a glass of Stella or a pint of Guinness, it's what most of the place is often drinking. There are some TVs playing sports and no food that I'm aware of. The plus side is that the drinks are going to be affordable and there is vibe is the least pretentious in the area. If one is looking for a simple ambiance with a little sports and a lot of local vibes, The Dugout completely fits the bill. Indulge in the personalities and have a pint while playing something from their jukebox. If one is lucky, it might just be on a night where there's a little live music.

There wasn't any food here, too bad. ::::bathroom alert:: Pleased that the bathroom was clean. See myself coming here in the summer months and it isnt far from the trainstation. Too bad they didnt have a pool table at this location! They also let you play your own music too! I love that too.

Came here for a little small belated birthday dinner for a friend and we had a very nice time. We each just had a dish since we knew the portions are BIG. The menu is extensive and there was a lot to choose from. They even offer some Mexican and Italian dish options. I had the Grilled Skirt Steak (Monterey), which was SO BIG I had leftover for lunch the next day. :) the meat was pretty tender and juicy. The dish came with tostones (big) and rice. We were also served salads to start. What stands out a lot is the amazing service here. They are so polite, friendly, patient and helpful. The restaurant definitely seemed staffed properly which I suppose was a good thing because as the night progressed, the place filled up (for a Thursday night). My friends had the salmon and the Chicken Franchise. I took off just one star because they ended up charging my friends twice (but rectified the mistake), hopefully her funds will sort out. They also charge extra if you want to make any side substitutions... which isn't kind of crappy. The place is also beautifully decorated and spacious. Will def be back very soon! Next time we'll partake in an adult beverage maybe :)

I've experienced and enjoyed Colombian cuisine before, but unfortunately, I was not a big fan of the food at Barriles. We were with my brother, and the three of us shared the Ceviche Mixto, the Picada La Jefa, and Parrillada Barriles. The Picado La Jefa was the best in terms of flavor, due primarily to the sauce and guacamole. The Parrillada Barriles was surprisingly disappointing, despite the "wow" factor of the portion size. Everything on the platter was so overcooked and dry, and everything also lacked seasoning. It was almost inedible, but we took the leftovers home in the hopes of being able to repurpose them somehow since the dish cost $50. The ceviche was prepared in a traditional red sauce, which I had never had before. The texture of the seafood was decent, but I didn't care for the sauce. It tasted oddly sweet to me. Overall, I would not eat here again but would return for drinks.

The volume was on and at an appropriate level which was appreciated. Despite it being busy, Malena our server was really attentive. It was a bit hot in the restaurant, which is to be expected in the middle of a heat wave. The food was good, we ordered the mac and cheese, Irish Spice Bag and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. There was a mixup with the first sandwich we got but our server and the manager were able to fix it quickly. First sandwich was also on the drier end (aside from the mixup) but the replacement they gave us was well made. Drinks were well made, sangria was balanced, not too sweet but not too strong. Extra points for the manager and server being attentive and generous. I would definitely recommend this spot.

You'll forget that you're in Queens and feel like you're in Soho here, but without the pretentious attitudes. Service here was accommodating and friendly, and the prices were shockingly reasonable for the complexity of cocktails offered here. I had two of the Remy Style martini which were so fresh, delicious and fruity. The pineapple syrup in here definitely hit without it being too sweet. I saw that they had some small bites here but we were headed elsewhere for dinner. A solid spot to catch up with a friend or to impress a date, for sure. I really hope that this place sticks around!
