An amazing selection of high quality cheeses! When we arrived, the restaurant was surprisingly empty, but the service was good and the food was top-notch. The biscuits and gravy hit the spot, though they weren't necessarily authentic, it's rare to find high quality southern dishes in NYC. Additionally, the adjacent cheese shop offered the best goat's milk Gouda I've ever tasted. I'll definitely be coming back for more of that cheese! read more

Returned for dinner on a Friday and sat at the bar. I ordered a coquito colada (seasonal cocktail) which was amazing, then my boyfriend and I shared: + Butternut squash soup + Caesar salad + Classic Mac + Murray's wings (hot honey blue and truffle BBQ) It's mostly only worth getting the mac and cheese here, but everything else was solid enough. Would consider just grabbing drinks at the bar next time, too! read more

I've always passed by this place whenever I'm in the lic area. I finally got to try it out, and it was good and bad. I went on MLK day around lunchtime, and it wasn't crowded. The bad thing about it was that the service was really slow and the food wasn't that warm. Perhaps the service wasn't that great since there was only one waitress the entire time. I don't get why the food wasn't warm when it came out in a skillet. Of course, when you go to a cheese restaurant, you have to try out cheese dishes. Otherwise, why else would you go? I did enjoy the food even if it wasn't warm. The poutine was really good with the gravy as the sauce. The JP's Murray's Melt was a grilled cheese sandwich simply put. For extra, you can get tomato sauce, and it goes well with the cheese melt. The other meal that I got was the Buffalo chicken Mac, and if it was hot, it would've been better. All in all, I would like to go back to try other items off the menu in the future. read more

A friend recommended this to me as a restaurant rather than a cheese shoppe (they are connected). It's an open, bright, airy spot in Long Island City, easily accessible from Manhattan, right next to the subway stop. Service was great. The people are awesome, so I want to get that out of the way immediately. The food is, of course, cheese based. I went during brunch, so my choices were a little more limited. For brunch they have Mac n cheese (I'm sure that's decadent and heavy!). They have a butter board and ciabatta. They have soups: French onion, chicken noodle, tomato. Breakfast sandwiches, quiche, melts, and more. I had the brunch burger, which had a decent flavor, but wasn't my favorite. Though topped with an egg, it was a little underwhelming. If doing brunch again, I would do the meat and cheese board (multiple options to mix and match cheese and meat and various price levels), and a few other small sides, or maybe the quiche. Lunch and dinner expands a bit: Brussel sprouts, salads, poutine, cheese curds, sliders, lobster bisque, burrata (I'm going to start putting this in every review--when will this trend die?!). There are also entrees, such as mushroom risotto, meatloaf, turkey shepherds pie, rasta pasta. I had a couple of cocktails that were wildly underwhelming, so I recommend going with wine. Why five stars with all the complaints? One, service is so cool and welcoming. Two, I just didn't capitalize on the best parts of this place. It's not a cocktail bar. Don't hone in on the cocktails. Two, the dishes are fine, but this place is best for: first dates or casual outings where you enjoy a cheese and/or meat board with wine. Then maybe stroll next door to buy some of the cheeses you tried. Also, don't fall into the trap of thinking this place is an independent little NY shoppe. This place is owned by Kroger. Cool place, just know what it is, and set yourself up for success. And one more time: the service here--the people--are awesome, now matter what. read more

Great happy hour spot - 3-7pm on weekdays and they have happy hour deals on food and drinks. Pretty extensive options - cheese board, wings, nachos, cocktails, wine/beer, etc. Friendly and attentive service. They checked in throughout the meal to make sure everything was going well. While we were waiting for our food there was a staff who came around with a sample of cheese/crackers from the retail side. Ordered cocktails (~$11 each) and a 3 cheese board ($18) and wings (6 for $12). They also let you mix 2 flavors of wings in an order. Overall decent deal for LIC. Overall had a nice experience here. The cheese options with the different jams and breads were great. The wings are nicely fried and very flavorful. Would recommend this spot for both small and larger parties and for a causal nice evening. read more

Their Macaroni and Cheese ranks top 3 for me! Pretty big portions although they are on the pricier side. I will say that their music taste is immaculate-- I was saving a lot of songs on their playlist, truly a vibe. Would recommend having a date night here! read more

There is a little cheese store attached with all the items you need to make a charcuterie board. We chose to sit at the bar. Service was great. Lots of fun drink options. Drinks were super tasty. We opted to start with the Murray choice Three cheese platter and it was so good surprisingly filling and came with a plate of bread. Platter came with pistachio butter and that was so good that we even bought a jar before we left. For the main, we shared the truffle mac & cheese, which was really good. All in all a great place to grab drinks and do some cheese tasting. They do even have wine flights and beer flights. read more

Cheese is the only thing that stands between me and veganism so I was excited to see there was a Murray's in the neighborhood upon moving! Whenever I visit I, at minimum, order the 3 cheese platter which they typically pair with complementary preserves and bread. There are so many delicious cheeses to choose from but I defer to the staff for recommendations and they never disappoint! I've had too many cheeses to name ranging from creamy to hard, mild to sharp. While I enjoy their cheese or offering I do not find their overall menu very exciting. After trying several of the mac and cheese options as well as the Brussels sprouts I've decided to stick to my usual cheese plate order. The mac was a bit bland with very mild cheese flavors and the Brussels sans bacon was a bit on the sweet side for me. Murray's offers happy hour on the early side as far as happy hours go but they always have a good menu including seasonal drinks like the frozen Yuzu Additionally they participate in Too Good to Go, where they sell food at highly discounted costs to prevent waste. I haven't visited for brunch yet so I'm giving them 4 stars on the promise of the menu and their unbeatable cheese pairings. read more

Why three stars? The food is a good fourth star is maybe 4 1/2. Service is lovely. Held our reservation from Resy. It's all about customer service. The mongers cheese board with three cheeses and a two meat charcuterie platter were delicious. However, they shouldn't serve pepperoni. It's classless. And the almonds had absolutely no flavor. I asked for a glass of Shiraz. Was told they didn't have the Shiraz but would substitute with a Cabernet. When the check came they up charged me for the Cabernet instead of charging me the lower price for the Shiraz I asked for it. It is not my fault they did not have the Cabernet. Hubby ordered an old-fashioned. Had a huge ice cube, and about an inch of liquor. Was very disappointed. Next thing you know they bring another old fashion to the table and we told them we didn't order it. So the waiter passes the manager, and the manager turns around and brings the drink back to the table. And of course they charged us for the second old-fashioned we did not order.. In all fairness the second old-fashioned had the right amount of liquor in it. We ordered a grilled cheese. We asked if we could have a gazpacho instead of tomato soup. No they said. They only have two kinds of soup. It's not a big deal to substitute one for the other strictly on a customer service basis. Or they could have said yes that will be a dollar more. In any case we decided not to get the gazpacho because I make that at home and it's really very good. I love cheese. All kinds any time every day anyway. But I just not coming back here. It's pretty pricey for what it is, but what isn't prithese days? read more

Tried out Murray's cheese bar and wow. Cue the drool!! There were so many great choices to choose from on the menu and we went with: Fried Brussels Sprouts - Crème Fraiche, Bacon Bits & Apple Cider Glaze Truffle Mac and Cheese - Black Truffle & Pecorino Tartufo Cheese blend Seasonal Mac - Roasted Butternut Squash, Red Wax Gouda & Cheddar Blend, Topped w/ Crispy Sage Can't wait to go back! read more

Well, if you're trying to be a European or French cheese and wine shop, then you've at least got down the slow pace of service. Probably shouldn't take 20 minutes to prepare a 3 cheese board with a handful of nuts, a lemon glaze or something, and some jam, but that's what I took. And while I will give full marks for the large ice cube in my old fashioned, this wasn't a good old fashioned. As for the cheese, the hard cheese and creamy cheese were good though I was not a fan of if they it apple butter or jam or whatever. The stanky cheese was good, but it really needed something sweet like honey, but instead it was served with this off lemon glaze or something on the side. I have never seen that on a cheese board, and for good reason. Those flavors didn't remotely work. If you're a cheese monger, you have to be better at matching flavors. This person didn't know what they were doing. read more

Murray's Cheese Bar - Happy hour cheese board, mongers choice. Very disappointing accoutrements for the cheese selection. 2 of 3 cheese were very good - Wine Bars Near Me - Long Island City, New York

Came here for a casual weekend dinner. This is located on one of the busier streets of LIC. As you can see, the inner decor is pretty unique, makes it feel great to sit both at the bar and the tables. The server was very nice, we came around 5p so not many people there. He helped us decide what to order and what's popular in the place. The food was good, it's always to have a good old cheese sandwich or sliders, which were what we got. I would love to try more of their cheese selection next time though! read more

This review is long overdue! Been going here about a year now since my top 2 favorite cheese spots closed. Murrays doesn't disappoint at all. The portions are always fair, consistent, and the staff (both at this location and their grand central location) is very knowledgeable and passionate. What's more is, from other places I've noticed that a lot of their selection can easily be found at your local grocery store. I've feel that Murray's has a better, more unique selection in this regard. Love their creative pairings too. Had. Abad experience with another spot recently, and I'm going to stick to Murray's from now on. read more

The interior of the restaurant was spacious and very chic and comfortable. The food was good although a bit on the expensive side. I had the murray cheese melt with tomato soup. The grilled cheese was delicious especially dipped in the soup. The soup came garnished with some cheese puffs. It was very flavorful but heavy and a bit over salted. It was a satisfying meal even though I couldn't finish the soup. read more

Came on a Saturday morning around noon; not busy and seated right away. Friendly staff We ordered the Monger's Choice Charcuterie Plate (2 sliced meats and 1 pate-like meat), the truffle Mac and cheese (small size; great truffle flavor and very filling for 2), and fried Brussels sprouts. Also got a red sangria (delicious and generous pour) Would love to come back sometime and try the lobster Mac and cheese, and pistachio cheesecake for dessert! read more

Conveniently located just steps from my apartment, Murrays is a great addition to the developing neighborhood. I enjoyed some solo outdoor dining a few weeks ago and it was the perfect meal for a cozy evening i planned to spend at home curled up on my couch with a good movie. I opted for their classic grilled cheese and tomato soup which I paired with a glass of their white wine. I was waited on quickly and food came shortly after. The waitress was kind enough to let me try the wine before I committed, and her recommendation was right. The grilled cheese was battery and gooey with just the right amount of "cheese pull" and combination of sharp and milk cheeses. The soup was perfectly portioned for spooning and dunking. It was served piping hot and had a nice balance of both acidic tomato flavor and creaminess. Its convenient location, happy hour specials and great simple bites make this an ideal local spot for me :) read more

We came here because we were craving a charcuterie board and it was available with rewards on Seated! I got the ube latte, which was delicious, but I think needed more coffee. The deluxe board was a fun experience, but I didn't like their duck items as much as I thought. I thought the duck meats could have been better, and the blue cheese was my favorite. Maybe that means I lack taste? Really cool piece though, and would recommend as a shared appetizer for a group of four or more. I'd probably come back for their Mac and cheese! read more

The restaurant was clean and staff was very friendly. I would probably give overall experience a 3.5 We ordered nachos, fries, Caesar salad, and classic Mac n cheese. My Mac was brought out almost immediately by itself. I have never been to a restaurant that brought out my meal before the salad and without the other persons food. I asked if I could have my salad first and be served my food with my husbands and the sever was very understanding. He said that the chef just put it out but he would take it back. They served my salad next which was very good (even with the slightly stale tasting croutons). The dressing had a great flavor and there was plenty of it. It was a good size. When my mac came out I was a little disappointed. It was pretty small and a little dried out around the edges. They had definitely put it under the warmer since bringing it to me the first time. I guess I'm partly to be me for that. The flavor was great but the size for the price didn't quite justify it for me. My husband enjoyed the fries and nachos. I tasted the fries and pimento cheese from the nachos and they were good. Our last hiccup came when the bill arrived and we were charged a different price for the salad than what was listed on the menu. We asked the server and he fixed it for us no problem. It is always just awkward having to mention it. Overall food was good but probably not worth the price point for me. read more

I found this place from TooGoodToGo and purchased a surprise bag of select cheeses (dealer's choice). The staff member that I interacted with was friendly and thorough, making sure I had my retrieval code. One of the cheeses is my favorite- Gouda! So super duper jackpot for me. Currently, they have a limit on the # of customers that can enter into the store, so be sure to take notice. read more

This mini Murray's makes some to die for grub!!! I had a bomb cauliflower soup with buttery croutons - two of them intact that would not be out of place at a fine dining establishment. The shop is small but they are mega nice- this is Queens after all. Soups and sandwiches at lunch and some curated formidable dinner entrees. My cauliflower soups were $7 each I bought a lovely pesto in the dip. A great addition to LIC and with grub this great- yo I will be back for that dinner chicken. read more

I cannot wait till I can dine in. They just opened so we were only able to do pick up. I forgot to take pictures. The inside is pretty sweet. The cement walls felt factory like. There's a section when you walk in that have comfy pillows. I cannot wait to sit in that section when they open. Besides being a restaurant its also a shop too. You have to try the grilled cheese. Its ooey-gooey delicious. Its called a murrays melt with three blended cheeses. The assortment cheese board was $20 but it was really good. The side salad we ate was very fresh as well. The customer service here was very friendly. They are practicing social distancing rules. I appreciate how close to the train. read more

I am a huge fan of Murray's Cheese, and was so happy when this location popped up in LIC. I often frequent the Grand Central Murray's, which has an amazing selection. This location is pretty small on the market side, with half of the space being used for the sit down portion. The selection of cheeses here, while good, is unfortunately very limited compared to the other locations that I also go to. Some of my favorite options are never there, which is really unfortunate. Also, most of the cheese are already pre-cut and wrapped in plastic wrap instead of cheese paper, which is more annoying after you take it home. I've never had the chance to sit down to eat at Murray's, but I have had the mac and cheese, which is fine. I'm really glad to have this Murray's location in the area. I do wish the selection were larger, but I know there are space constraints. read more

I've been frequenting Murray's cheese bar for about 2 years now and the service has always been phenomenal !! Once you enter the establishment you're either greeted by a host and/or the staff behind the bar. The seating is comfortable at both the bar and the tables. I don't work too far from the establishment so this place is my happy hour go to from 3pm-7pm. My ultimate fave would be a flavored margarita (they incorporate REAL fruit !!) and a Cheese board. Over time I've tried dozens of assorted cheeses and spreads served with their soft bread, let me just say the cheese bar never misses ! The Mac and cheese is awesome and the Garlic Parmesan wings are TOP NOTCH! All the staffs are my fave and their management is just as a delightful. Thank you guys for always going above and beyond see you soon ! Christina (a fave regular ha) read more

I was so excited when Murray's announced they'd be opening up a wine and cheese bar in LIC. But then the pandemic happened and opening was delayed and like everyone else I stayed home more.. And then we moved to LA.. On a recent trip back to NY, we were staying at a hotel in LIC so I got to pop in here for a drink. Beautiful space! Excellent wine menu. And of course, the cheese-centric menu. Just wish I got to enjoy it more often before leaving NY. read more

So today we went for a birthday dinner for my brother. Service was AMAZING! We had arrived earlier and were greeted the minute we came in and they offered us to try a cheese which was delicious. Everyone was asked if their food/ drinks were good or if anything else was needed. We were also checked on throughout the night. Food was amazing ! The cheese platter, the different Mac and cheese or sandwich. Everyone truly enjoyed their meal. I recommend everyone to try here. The vibe was perfect , good energy all around.

A bit torn about this review, but decided to average my last few visits. The first time we visited we had a great time. We loved the food/drinks and service. They have yummy cocktails, and I need to visit during happy hour to take advantage of it! Would've been a solid 4 star experience. Yesterday we ordered a truffle Mac & cheese before tax and upgraded it to a larger size ($31 before tax). See the photo to see how small a "large" is. I can't even imagine what a "small" would be. Also, Mac and cheese is a pasta, but this was so incredibly dry my jaw started aching from chewing. I could bet money that this was a previous batch that was microwaved. Pasta that comes out of a pot of water does not turn rock hard like this one did. Murray's LIC, please do better. read more

I used to live in Jackson Park which is right above where Murray's Cheese is located. After two years of waiting for the opening, I finally got to try it recently. Due to covid, I ordered takeout and tried the grilled cheese, Mac and cheese, seasonal salad and burrata. I made sure to eat a lactaid before digging into all the cheesy goodness. This location is also connected to a store so we bought some pimiento cheese and baguette to complement our order. If I'm ever in the mood for cheese this is my go to spot, it was worth the wait! read more

Very mediocre and I'll never come back again. The staff were super nice and friendly but inattentive. My salmon was fishy and WAY too salty, possible explanation is to maybe cover the fishy smell/ taste with the excessive salt and seasoning. Next off to the wine list. Nothing to rave about. The cheese board came with a variety of cheese, yes it's nice but also not the finest and the highest quality cheese I've ever had. Also it's unfortunate the outdoor tables are right next to the train station. read more

I have been coming to the Murray's LIC location for the past 3 months. I'm not a New Yorker, but am in LIC every few weeks for work. It's amazing, but the bartender/server Brie ALWAYS remembers me! What great service, and it makes me feel so welcome at a time when I'm away from home. Warning: the cheese and charcuterie boards are too big for one person (at least for me). But great for 2-4 people. If you're dining by yourself, not to worry! Their other menu items are delicious. My favorite is the cauliflower soup with anchovy toasted croutons. It was so delicious, I recreated it at home! For great service and yummy food, I definitely recommend this location. read more

I really enjoyed a couple hours at Murray's, tasting various cheeses and plates! The cacio e pepe chickpeas were a real highlight, and their cheeses were fabulous and they had quite a variety. But, their service really needs work, especially for a place where you want to taste different cheeses/wines and ask questions. We opted for a charcuterie and cheese plate of the cheesemonger's choice, but asked for them to include some blue cheese for us to try. The waitress agreed, and then disappeared. It was pretty empty, so 30 minutes later I asked for our cheese plate and they brought it within 5 minutes, but no blue cheese. (We ended up ordering the 1924 blue anyway, which is one of our favorites!). The man who brought the plate didn't tell us which cheeses they were, so we had to ask someone else to explain- but they spoke so fast that we didn't catch them all. But we enjoyed it anyway! read more

My friend and I came to Murrays's at 9pm on a Wednesday and stayed until closing at 11pm. There were not many people here, which made for a chill & cozy late-night ambiance. We came for the 5 cheeses & meats platter ($35), selected by the cheesemonger, and we also ordered the Ratatouille Mac ($24) since we hadn't eaten dinner and were ravenously hungry. We had SUCH a great time. It was so nice to be treated to a cheese platter without having to think too much, since the "cheesemonger" selected out the cheeses and what to pair them with. We tried one goat cheese with dehydrated maple syrup, one cow cheese (tasted like Gouda) with really tasty jalapeño chutney, and another cow cheese (tasted like Brie) with pickled snap peas (also amazing). The two meats that came with our selection were chorizo and salami. They refilled our bread basket for free, so we got two heaping basket-fulls and didn't have to worry about rationing! The mac and cheese also really hit the spot with the gooey cheese, zucchini, eggplants, and cherry tomatoes. It was unlike any mac and cheese I've ever had before. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're craving a cheese tasting and/or late-night sesh catching up with a friend! I'll be coming back in the future. read more

Such cheesy goodness. I live right upstairs in the building above the cheese bar and every time I pass by and look through the window I can't help but drool a little bit (okay, more like A LOT). I mean, good food, amazing drinks, and lots of CHEESE - what's not to like?! Must get cocktails: The spicy yuzu kosho margarita is so addicting- I love yuzu kosho as an ingredient in food but have never seen it in a cocktail before- putting it in a frozen spicy margarita is genius! Green light - gin cocktail with kiwi and a mint sugar rim. So fun! Must get food: Lamb Meatballs - wowww. Just get it and thank me later. Red pepper cavatelli - I was pretty impressed to learn that the cavatelli is made in-house by the chef! Texture was perfect, and the whole Burrata on top was just heaven. Grilled cheese - don't take this to go. You have to eat this fresh as soon as it comes out of the kitchen to understand why people are obsessed with the grilled cheese here. Every time I see someone taking it to go I cry a little. Marinated Meredith dairy feta - beautiful presentation, the perfect appetizer. I'm slowly making my way through the entire food and cocktail menu with each visit downstairs. There's seating both outside and inside (gorgeous space) and the staff is so, so friendly and accommodating. ILYSM Murray's! read more

I'm in love and that's all I have to say. But if you need more elaboration, it's the mac and cheese!! So incredibly delicious! It has everything I want: al dente spiral noodles, cheese that's not a wet sauce, breadcrumbs for crunch, and seasoning! There is actually flavor to this mac and cheese and it's not just a one note flavor profile. Honestly the best I've had by FAR. Their grilled cheese is pretty damn good as well. I always get the classic. Bread is buttered and toasty. Cheese is nice and melty. But what makes it 10x better is the tomato soup! Again, they know how to season! There is actual flavor in the soup that goes beyond crushed tomatoes. Plus it has that nice creamy texture. I also tried their caprese sandwich. I thought it was a grilled cheese version but it's a cold sandwich so I was a little disappointed. However, it was a good sandwich. The pesto was delicious and salty. Tomatoes were nice and roasted. Cheese didn't wow me like the rest did but there was a nice thick layer in there. Will definitely go back for more! read more

The friend I always stay with when I visit NYC and I are both strong cheese enthusiasts, and we always stop by Murray's cheese to stock up on options and build our own cheese boards. The last time I was in the city she suggested that we stop by the cheese bar for raclette, so who was I to refuse? The food was incredible! Loved the DIY raclette with flickering candles, and the spread of cured meats and accoutrements was great. We also ordered the heirloom cucumber salad to whet the appetite and also provide us with some leafy greens, and it was a delightfully refreshing appetizer to the main course. Would love to visit again next time I'm in town to try some of the other items on the menu! read more

Great having Murray's in the neighborhood if you're a cheese fanatic. If not, it's still nice knowing you can get a decent grilled cheese with tomato soup. Grilled cheese with bacon and tomato is great. Pressed and toasted like a pancake almost and delicious tasting cheese complimented with bacon and tomato. The tomato soup is thick like pasta sauce and very savory. Rich and delicious. What's disappointing is the Mac n cheese. There was more cream than there was actual pasta. It wasn't particularly cheesy. I guess you can't assume they are great at making cheese dishes just because it's a cheese shop. read more
