    A restaurant in an airport cannot afford to have such bad internet connection. I made a mistake I didn't check before I ordered. Service was very good and so was the food. Place is almost empty since not too many people flight, so I am happy I could support. If you do come here check the WiFi connection. If not good and you do need to use strong WIFI, might be better to choose a different place.

    Delicious fettuccine a la vodka.

    I was here on a Sunday afternoon as part of a large party of about 20 people. I was skeptical of a kosher Italian place ( I am not kosher!), but it wowed me. My fetuccini a la vodka really hit the spot. So tasty. So savory. I also want to give a big thumbs up to the bread. I have no idea what they did to it, but it was warm and soft and just full of flavor. Good service too...those servers were always hustling and trying hard to please. I live not too far away and will probably go there again...bringing other non-Jews and non-Kosher people. Really a great place!

    Had a great experience here today. Similar to muscat cafe. Food was delicious. Service was pretty good. Food came out in a normal amount of time. Don't know why it took me so long to try this place out. Will be back. Forgot to take a before shot. This is the sweet potato salad and mushroom alfredo. We also had the fried mac and cheese balls and some sushi.

    Super mediocre food that's not worth it's price. You can make the same dishes at home. If you're going out don't go her.

Last time I tried their black sesame matcha which was so yummy. I always look forward to the new flavors they come up with which are really crafted with care. They're also one of the few cafes ive seen which offer hojicha- a tea which tastes more nutty and caramel-y. Forest cafe has definitely grown in popularity over the years, so the last few times ive been here it was packed to the brim. Still, the service hasn't suffered at all and they get through customers at a fast pace. I really admire the unwavering attention to detail and upkeep that is put into all aspects of this cafe, from the artful posters and signage, to the new flavors, to the space itself - these things make it such a wonderful gathering place for the community!!

They have a list of year round items & a couple rotating seasonal lattes that you'll have to wait to see on their wall as well. However, It gets extremely busy there -- so if you're wanting to sit and chit chat with a friend, you might find yourself sitting outside or constantly checking for a chair because it gets busyyyyy in here on weekdays despite the abundant seating, while I do love a little coffee & study session, it really sucked that nearly all of the tables inside were taken by customers with laptops! Perhaps it's better on weekends as they have signs that implement no laptops on weekends. Anyways, onto the orders... My sister and I ordered off the seasonal menu and tried the Strawberry latte, Pistachio latte and a Pistachio Waffle. Unfortunately, I just felt like neither of the lattes were really lived up to the hype. The strawberry latte is literally just strawberry jam layered with milk and a shot of espresso & the pistachio drink was not very sweet or pistachio flavor forward, it had a bit of a nutty taste towards the end, but honestly just tasted a majority like milk. I definitely think it could benefit from more pistachio flavoring or some pistachio cream smeared on the side of the cup. Also, not sure if they use two different roasts for the drinks, but the strawberry tastes much more burnt than the other. The pistachio waffle was probably the best part, but even then, you cannot really mess up on a waffle that is smeared with pistachio butter. Not sure if it is house made though. I didn't like it, but my sister really likes this place, so it is definitely a matter of opinions. I would definitely recommend stopping by & trying it out yourself!

Jamaica Ave is known to locals of Jamaica Queens as "The Ave" so I thought that naming this place "The Avenue Cafe" was a really nice touch. The Avenue Cafe is definitely a hidden gem. I believe the small number of reviews is primarily due to its location. Tucked away in a food court which could only be accessed through an alley on Jamaica Ave or a side street (160th St), this cafe was not easy to find. Although the food court it is located in is no-frills, The Avenue Cafe actually put effort in establishing an inviting aesthetic that made me feel no different than if I were walking in my usual cafes in the city and I really liked that. The staff were courteous and they make your order quick! Best of all, they take card and Apple Pay (I didn't have cash on me that day and I was aware that just about every stall in that food court is Cash-Only). I only had their cold brew thus far but I'll absolutely be back to try the other items on the menu.

From Korean-style croffles and fusion kimbap to onigiri, acai bowls, smoothies, floats, soft serve, and frozen yogurt -- there's something for every craving. We sampled a bit of everything and were seriously impressed. The strawberry matcha croffle was a standout, perfectly crisp and indulgent. The onigiri was massive and full of flavor, and the yogurt? Super smooth, rich, and clearly top-tier quality. Shoutout to Jerry for making the experience even better -- incredibly friendly, patient, and happy to walk you through the menu. Service here is on point. The space itself is cozy, charming, and welcoming, making it a great spot to hang out or grab a late-night sweet fix.
