Ok this is my second review of the place and is still the same. Some decent wines. Though it does piss me off when I see Prosecco under champagne. Their reds (wine) are definitely a better selection than their white. Though they do have some decent Chablis. Their white are ok...lots of new world pinot Grigio and Chardonnay. Lots of Sauvignon Blanc but from the new world such as New Zealand. They have very little Sancerre (Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley). An ok selection of Riesling, most of it is sweet but Riesling can also be bone dry and I didn't see any of that. No Chenin Blanc either. When it comes to dessert wines, they have sweet Moscato but not really anything from a producer to brag about. They have only really expensive Port or really cheap Tawny Port. I wish and I mean WISH they would carry some Sauternes (dessert wine only made in france). They have 2 Passito wine (sweet wine from Italy) One was good Donnafugata Ben Rye which was out of my price range and the other was a Trebbiano based Vin Santo (which is also good though not as good as the other one.) I really need to talk about the service here. I REALLY REALLY REALLY think they don't know what they have. I bought a DOC Sicilian Carricante which I was expecting to pay a bit for but they only charged me 6.99 for that bottle which confused me and I double checked to make sure I picked the right one. I mean it's great that I got a good steal but that bottle should have costed me (and goes retail) for around 35-40 dollars. I know you're thinking why I'm complaining but it would be nice with a better selection and if they knew what they had but HEY if you wanna sell me 40$ bottle for 7 bucks. I'm all for it. They should learn at least basic wine terms. I did happen to buy a beautiful châteauneuf-du-pape though, and the price was right. But Please Please Please get in some Sauternes. I'm not asking for a Chateau D'Yquem (since I can't afford it anyway) but a decent well fair priced one would do just fine. That's all I'm going to say. read more

GNG Wine & Liquor - two bottles of wine - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Howard Beach, New York

Right before the 4th of July weekend I ran in there to buy a bottle of d'usse cognac which they keep right up front by the register. Me being friendly I say something to the man behind the counter like "hey, how's it going?" or something close to that. He barely glimpses at me. Ok, no biggie... I grab my bottle in like two seconds. He scans it. I enter my card & pay. I say "thanks a lot man. Take care, have a good one..." again something along those lines. Nothing. No thank you. Not a blink. Nothing. Now I understand life can be less then great. Especially now with the world the way it's been the past year, but when you run a business & someone is spending their hard earned money in your establishment a little bit of common curiosity can go a long way. I mean at least say you're welcome. I highly doubt I'll ever shop there again. read more

Nice local liquor store that has been here a few years. Prices are decent, I do compare and see stuff higher or lower in certain neighborhoods. A few days ago got some nice white wine for just under $10. There are plenty of other options, also got the mini bottles like New Amsterdam ($1), Bacardi gold ($1.50) and Ketle One ($1.50). The ciroc little 50ml are insanely price at $4.00 or $4.25, why bother. I like this spot and the friendly staff. The place is worth a visit if you are in the neighborhood. read more

One of two liquor stores in my rotation. Good selection of everything from wines to hard liquors and good prices compared to the other local stores. Staff is friendly and helpful if I need help. Parking is easy as it is located in a strip mall. Open 7 days a week and at least until 10 pm on most nights. I think they close a little earlier on Sundays. read more

I ordered from this place and never got my delivery. They were rude and hang up on me when I asked for the status. Avoid this liquor store

One of my Go To Spots ! Liquor prices are fair and great customer service ! I also like that they take credit cards ! Plus they stay open during the times most other liq stores are closed read more

Great customer service. If you ask for recommendations they never try to sell you something expensive but rather, recommend something that meets your requirements. Sometimes it's pricey, sometimes it's not. Very good selection (both wines and hard liquor). Just an all-round great neighborhood spirits store. read more
