    From top to bottom: Homemade Mac & Cheese, String beans, Cabbage with bacon
    Melissa C.

    Amazing comfort food for my soul! I really needed this reminder of how homemade food feeds the mind, body & soul. The seafood bique was delicious with lobster meat, shrimp & crab leg meat. I loved the fact that it wasn't thick and heavy. It was savory and flavorful. I had 2 big bowls and still craved more. The fish bites were so fresh and yummy, my 5-year old daughter devoured all of it in one seating. Next time I will double up on the fish bites and shrimp burger! That's how delicious they were. Gretel & Sons definitely deserves my Yummylicious Stamp of Approval! Two thumbs up!!!

    Great hospitality and customer service. Beautiful to see a family work so well together and seem to enjoy what they do. It definitely shows in the quality of their food. Everything was immaculate 10/10 on everything we tried from mains, to sides, the bread, the desert, and fresh lemonade/limeade. Can't wait to go back

    I've been to a few Mango Mango Dessert locations, but this one in Westbury is probably the smallest…read moreone I've been to. However, it's certainly cute inside and spacious. I truly like the clouds and hot air balloons decor. There are a few parking spots right in front. A staff member welcomed us in and we chose a table to sit while looking at the menu. When we were ready, we went up to the counter to order. I ordered the Mango Coconut Sticky Rice w. Ice Cream ($10.75) and the Lychee Jasmine Ice Tea ($8.50). My husband ordered the Mixed Fresh Fruit w. Sago & Jelly in Coconut Juice ($9.25). It only took a few minutes for our order to arrive at the table. I really enjoyed the Mango Coconut Sticky Rice w. Ice Cream. The mango was so fresh and it was a great portion. I would definitely order this again. The Lychee Jasmine Ice Tea was very refreshing and had real pieces of lychee. I am really glad this location is open and nearby me. I'll be back!

I ordered the rice and mango bowl and the rice was soooooo sour and fizzy on the tongue and it was really soupy. I stopped eating it because I don't think it was supposed to taste like that. The crepe cake was good though. Service was ok. I was sitting at a different table than my party and the lady placed my order at the other table instead of where I was sitting which I thought was a bit odd and disregarding. The parking situation is limited because of the other businesses on that small lot and limited to 30mins.

    This is my go-to spot when I'm in Williston Park, it's a spot I've been visiting since I was a kid…read moreand will continue visiting since the food and ice cream are so delicious! Ambiance has changed a lot since I was little, now going for more of a horse racing theme since they sponsor a race horse in Saratoga. Very cool but I do miss the vintage vibes! Maybe a few pictures of the original diner would be cool? The food is great. This was my first time trying the Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger and it was so tasty, especially paired with the homemade fries. Milano ice cream is top-tier! It's like cookies & crème but replaces Oreo with Milano cookies. Service was a bit slow, which was odd considering we were one of two tables at the time. Also, we ordered a burger with grilled onions and ended up with a cheeseburger (no onions) instead. Otherwise, all was well and staff was very nice. (Alfredo at the grill is iconic and always the best, always remembers us!) This is a must-try spot- don't miss them at Citi Field either!

    Ordered Cobb salad for delivery and this is such a disappointment. For 18$ this is nothing…read more Not packed at all, minimal tops and quantity of toppings. After removing the tomatoes, where's the lettuce? Half an egg, maybe 2 pieces of bacon chopped up and half of a tomato hugely sliced. Not a dense salad at all. Dressing was tucked into salad too. Not worth it in my opinion. Another person ordered a burger and fries and stated the burger was flavorless and so were fries. Not the Hildebrandts we knew.

    My hubby had found this little gem last year and we decided to take a little trip this past…read moreweekend. Not a bad drive from mid-Queens, it was about 20-30 minutes out of our way. While on a corner on a pretty busy street, the location seemed slightly obscure. No parking - just 2 or 3 spots in front of the establishment. We came mid-day on a gloomy Sunday in February...so we didn't have an issue parking right in the front. We were greeted by the friendly associate. There were lots of great-looking gelato flavors which the associate also allowed us to sample first (very kind). She was very patient with us and really seemed to enjoy working there. We're BIG hazelnut enthusiasts, so we each had one scoop of hazelnut flavor and one of the Rocher (hazelnut) flavor. They also had an amazing fig and honey gelato flavors which was absolutely delicious. They offer 4 sizes - kids' size, and then the usual - small, medium and large. The small is 2 generous scoops - and that's what we went with. The overall experience didn't disappoint at all; we thoroughly enjoyed the treat, my hubby had an espresso coffee as well (very good) and we got a kids cup of vanilla for our pup. The prices were also decent and for this type of experience, I will gladly support a small business. I definitely recommend checking out this little gem. Will return once the weather get warmer!

    They have indoor and outdoor seating. I walked in and was instantly greeted. Their sizes depend on…read morehow many flavors you can get in that cup. I went with a large 3 flavor cup and chose rainbow cookie, cannoli and s'mores. The rainbow cookie was my favorite of the three. And they put a little tiny cone on top which was cute.

    I came here about 1-2 months ago on a weekend to grab some food for takeout as this place is pretty…read moreclose to me. A friend had told me the food here was pretty good. The place is ultra small and easy to miss on Post Ave. Inside, it's not huge but they have a bunch of tables and their lighting is pretty good. So I grabbed one of their menus that they had by the cash register and took a look. I was impressed because their prices seemed very reasonable. Key word being 'seemed'. I decided to order their enchiladas platter with red sauce, which was listed at $14. Unfortunately, when I went to pay for my meal, I was told that the menus were old, and that the real price for the meal was closer to $20. I might've even paid more than that with tax included; don't remember 100%. But that was very disappointing. I told the young lady who was working there that they price was listed at $14 on their own menu; she responded that the correct price was listed somewhere on their board. Though I'm pretty sure it was unintentional, I felt a bit duped. Anyways, I took my food back home to see how it was. I couldn't help but to compare this enchilada platter to the one offered at Little Mexico about a block away cause they offer the same thing. So, first off, Little Mexico gives you a ton of chips and salsa when you order a platter from them. This was not present at Juicebox. The platter at Little Mexico definitely gives you more food overall. Anyways, I dug in, and the platter from Juice Box wasn't bad. The flavor was pretty good and there wasn't anything too offensive about it, but unfortunately it just pales in comparison to the enchiladas at Little Mexico. I couldn't help but to be disappointed that the enchiladas platter at Juicebox was less food, no chips, tasted worse, and was more expensive. The enchiladas platter at Little Mexico comes out to about $17-18 after tax. So those were my thoughts overall. So that was my experience with Juicebox Cafe. I might give it another shot in the future cause it's close to my home, but I don't feel inclined to, especially after the pricing debacle I experienced and the price I paid didn't seem justified.

    Nice spot for a quick bite. The name is a holdover from the previous incarnation as a yogurt &…read moresnack bar. However currently they offer a full breakfast and lunch menu including pancakes, paninis, salads and burgers. Furthermore they offer Mexican dishes such as tacos, quesadillas, fajitas, and full platters (steak, chicken, shrimp, etc) including paella. They offer weekday lunch specials and Happy Hour specials such as a burger and fries for $4.99! So far I've like everything that I've tried here. Definitely a good spot to try.
