I had the "Burmese falafel" which is kinda, sorta falafel but stands on its own! Spicy, good texture and meatier than standard falafel would be.

I see more bike rides going this way! Oh, the lady who served me... just a gem! Friendly, told me about the food, topped off a great meal.

Queens Blvd with parking!…read more This small mom and pop rocks with the noodles dishes they offer. So far I really dig the garlic flavor vermicelli with chicken. Sticky garlicky smooth is how I'd classify these noodles with spring onion. I also tried the biryani special on weekends which has great umami but the rice was a bit hard for my taste. It may take a while during peak times but the food is great. If you are in a rush, they do take orders over the phone. It's also not often if at all that a restaurant on Queens Blvd has free onsite parking so bring your car too!

We were actually surprised it wasn't busier for a Saturday, but that worked out great for us since our party of four (2 adults and 2 kids) was seated right away. The menu was available on an iPad, which made browsing easy. I ordered the grilled chicken with rice, beans, and sweet plantains. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. My husband ordered the chicken with a white sauce and really enjoyed his meal as well. My older daughter loved her grilled steak so much that she had to take some home for later! My youngest kept it simple with chicken fingers, which she happily finished. They also offer fresh juices. The girls ordered mango and strawberry juices, and both were delicious. One thing we thought was really cool was that the TVs played the music videos for the songs that were playing throughout the restaurant, which added a fun atmosphere. Before leaving, we checked out the bakery section and picked up a Nutella croissant and a chocolate loaf. The girls absolutely loved both treats! The staff was attentive and friendly throughout our visit, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a great meal and will definitely be coming back.

Particularly loved the calentado and freshness of chorizo and all other items included in my desayuno Raices pictured here. Can also come in an grab a quick bite -- pandebono, boñuelo, empanada. etc -- its all very tasty. Would recommend. Wish they had one closer to the city!

I got a burrito bowl with cilantro lime white rice, chipotle honey chicken, garlic butter shrimp, tex-mex, cheese, black beans, onions & peppers sautéed, guacamole, and chipotle greek yogurt. I did ask for the chipotle Greek yogurt to be on the side and said they put it on top. I will say they are a hit or miss when asking for sauce on the side sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Also, unfortunately, on this day we ordered they had no steak available. But the flavors were popping, and everything was so fresh and flavorful. When the order came, it was warm but not as hot as I thought it was gonna be. 8/10 for this!

Mr Buncha will always be my go-to boba shop…read more I first discovered this place in 2021--when they first opened. I've been going ever since. The workers are always friendly every time I go. The shop itself is very cute, clean but kind of small to be in. After purchasing a drink, they give you a stamp card. After a couple of purchases you eventually get a free drink--any size. My favorite drinks so far have been Strawberry Milk Tea Strawberry Fizzy Green Apple Fizzy For all of these, I always include brown sugar bubble as my topping.

And don't forget the large selection of teas, juices and coffee beverages! Most people order takeout since there are only 2 small tables which seat 2. Everything is made to order, so you're guaranteed fresh beverages and food! On a random Wednesday evening, we ordered a couple of bowls and beverages. Service was impressively fast, considering it's made to order! We ordered two combo rice bowls & beverages: -- Beef Bulgogi Rice Bowl plus Black Milk Tea ($19.75): this bowl was fantastic! Fresh ingredients; well balanced and flavorful. The milk tea was good also; smooth, strong tea flavor. I would get this combo again! -- Crispy Chicken Rice Bowl plus Mango Milk with boba ($20.25): my 11 yr old niece ordered this and devoured it! lol She's been to Mr Buncha a few times, and this is her fave meal combo there. For a quick, healthy meal, I would return again. Recommended!

Nice warm bread with a very flavorful olive oil started the meal followed by baked clams and buratta, baked clams were fresh and delicious, garlicy with a little red pepper bite, they use panko breadcrumbs and while they were definitely one of the the better baked clams ive had I think I prefer a more traditional breadcrumb. The buratta was fresh milky and creamy and paired perfectly with the camponta ( probably murdered the spelling on that). The oso bucco special was insanely good, fall off the bone tender,great sauce and the mashed potatoes with crispy panchetta were out of this world . My fish ..I want to say filet of sole?..i dont remember lol, was cooked beautifully covered with the same delicious breading as the baked clams and came served over a generous portion of spinach and garlic. Deserts were exactly what you would expect, classic and delicious and they also make a mean Manhattan..all and all I was very pleasantly suprised , this place is a definite gem on Grand ave , nothing can come close to touching it. My only complaint is the service could be better, started out great, then there was a shift change and it got crowded and I kindof fell off dramatically Also the ambiance could be better, its a nice space but too bright , that being said I will be back.

It was a quaint and cozy place. There were 2 big tables with comfy seating inside and seating outside as well. We stayed inside since it was hot and humid.

We also got one vanilla lemonade.The food was delicious and good quantity. The prices were reasonable as well. I'm looking forward to trying other dishes here next time we're in the area.

If there were a footrest bar at the bottom it might've helped, but as it was, my butt was not fitting on that seat. I basically had one foot on the floor and one on my friend's chair just to keep myself from sliding off. Graceful! We ordered two espresso martinis and a slice of tiramisu. Both were absolutely lovely and the perfect way to end the night. The staff were friendly, fast, and really on top of things. Next time I'd definitely come for a table, and maybe a proper meal, because the dishes coming out of the kitchen looked divine. My only gripe? Seventeen dollars for an espresso martini feels... ambitious for Ridgewood. It's not like this is some high-end cocktail bar, it's an elevated pizzeria. I'm not sure I'd come back specifically for the drinks, but I'd absolutely come back for the food and the service. I took home a second piece of that tiramisu. It was so delicious!

The band also played songs from Elvis Costello and the Carpenters. I noticed some older gentleman came to watch them. He drove to the show and ordered a hefty size of creamy pasta. This guy is my hero. We ordered the calamari to start. And Nick had a Birra Morreti and I had the "Diesel" cocktail that had the perfect amaro mix! The cocktail was balanced with sweet, strong and still remained smooth. The mushroom "Funghi" pizza was banging. I loved seeing the whole mushrooms on top. And the pesto marries well with the flavors. We devoured our decadent date night meal while time traveling to a different era with the tunes. Highly recommend having an intimate dinner here or get a little group going. The best was leftover pizza for breakfast!
