The teens in our family raved about the salted egg yolk fried crab. We have dined here a handful of times since they've opened in the last few years and noticed their service gets better and better with every visit. The wait staff are really on top of it. They keep a mindful eye and also offer a delightful dessert service at the end of the meal, fresh cut fruit with sweet tong sui soup. While there are plenty of Cantonese restaurants in Elmhurst, the thoughtful and respectful team at Ocean Bay make all the difference. I heard their dim sum is quite good too!

We have been crazing seafood boil lately and ordered from here twice in the last few weeks…read more One of our fave seafood boils in queens. Been either dining in or ordering take out ever since they opened the Rego Park location. Service is always friendly and amazing either dine in or take out. Take out is super easy. Order on line and you can even accumulate points for a future discount. They also deliver for free and its pricing is better than the online ordering services. We ordered 1lb each of the shrimp with head, snow crab legs and craw fish. We love the oceanic sauce but also ordered on garlic butter with old baby cause the little one loves it. You can also pick the level of spiciness. Only drawback is, seems like there's less sauce and the sauce is very watery compared to before and my kids love dipping the seafood back in the sauce and coating their rice in the sauce. We love the mango pina colada with a kick and the virgin option is always a treat for the 21 and under. They even sent an extra drink today since they made an extra by accident. Thank you!!!

OG spot, but the food was very mediocre. The restaurant has a classic ambiance, but the execution…read moreof the dishes needs work. We had a few misses: The Eggplant and Salty Fish (2/5) the eggplant wasn't cooked long enough to achieve that desired soft texture, and the salty fish was overwhelmingly, salty. The Sweet and Sour Pork Chop (3/5) had potential, but each piece was sliced too thin and over fried, making the whole thing unnecessarily crispy instead of tender. The Fish Maw Soup (3/5) lacked the depth of flavor we were hoping for. Chicken fried rice (2.5/5): tasted like what you would expect, Americanized fried rice The Highlights: The Mayo Shrimp (3.5/5) was a better dish; we appreciated the nice crispiness, and it was an interesting take to serve the mayo on the side. The Snow Peas with Garlic (4/5) was perfectly executed, fresh and garlicky, a simple but standout veggie dish. FYI: cash only

Great neighborhood Turkish spot! Been here several times and can't believe I hadn't reviewed them…read moreyet! Ambience is clean, open and bright with tasteful minimalist decor. Service is always spot on and personable here regardless if they are busy or not. Must orders here are the several varieties of fish, but for those who eat Americanized fish, they take the head and tail off but the fish fillets are not your perfectly squared of pieces. The fish is grilled to perfection and simply served with a side of either grilled veggie, yummy pilaf rice or French fries. The octopus stew is the most buttery and tender octopus you'll ever have and who can not forget their kabob selections whether you do the chicken or lamb! Stick with the mix grill plate for both though so you get to try a selection of them all. End the night with some hot Turkish black tea or string Turkish coffee with a sweet piece of baklavah or a digestive night cap of Raki mixed with a little water and you are good to go! Can't wait for my next dinner here!

Food is great and hearty. My dislike is towards the staff…read more Ordered the Black Sea drink that is like the equivalent of a Long Island Iced Tea but I got it with no iced and sour as hell. Asked the waiter for extra ice and a coke on the side only to be ignored and not get it at all. Either way two time experience here. First and last.

So this place is like all the hype is about it…read more Very good service Very clean The food is different and very quick , tasty and leaves you wanting more . Position are a bit small for a whole in the wall like this and prices are high especially on the tacos but that's because the quality seems really good and fresh and effort put into it. I will definitely try to come back And come early no reservations have to wait in lines cold or warm you will have to. Maybe they should open another spot or expand but that's their business .

Came here on a Friday night and was seated immediately, but the place was busy! By the time we…read moreleft, there was a line waiting to be seated. The menu is entirely in Spanish but the waiters can help if needed. We ordered the Gobernador taco, a half dozen shrimp, the regular guacamole and the aguachiles verdes. The Gobernador was a large size - really more like a mini quesadilla than a taco in my mind. It was flavorful and filled with seafood. The half dozen shrimp were cooked well, but a little hard and messy to peel. The guac was good, a little oily but tasty. The aguachiles were really good but borderline too spicy for me. The spice continued to build as I ate them and it did feel less enjoyable but it was good to start. My main grievance with this restaurant was how loud it was. I was yelling and struggling to hear what my friend or the waiter said, but the food was delicious. Maybe if it were less crowded it would be ok, but definitely not a great atmosphere for having a conversation.

Met my friend who recommended this place…read more So good! I definitely will be back. We got the watercress with enoki, shrimp noodles and the crab soup dumplings. Everything was perfect. Perfectly flavored not too salty and just yum. Waitress was super nice and helpful. Kept checking in on us. Ambiance was pretty spacious inside since I have seen from outside but pretty comfortable inside.

I had a lovely lunch here…read more I ordered the kao fu and the lions head meat balls. Kao fu is wheat gluten similar to seitan and it comes cold, braised with mushrooms. The flavor of this dish was quite sweet, with warm spices and the richness of soy sauce. I loved the texture of the wheat gluten, it's meaty and chewy and pairs well with the accompanying shiitake mushrooms. The lion's head meatballs were extremely tender and soft, coated in a sweet and savory glaze and served with steamed bok choy. The Shanghainese flavor profile is sweeter and less oily than other Chinese food, and I found my dishes to be rich without being overly fatty or heavy. The service here is extremely friendly and the prices are very reasonable. I will likely return soon.

I quite enjoyed my meal here. I was craving crab legs and this was one that popped up in Queens…read more They have a crab and shrimp combo for $55. The crab meat comes out so effortlessly. I got it in the flavor garlic butter with old bay. There were about 2 crab clusters and so many shrimp. I was able to get the shrimp headless but I also with the skin was removed. It was annoying having to peel it off for every piece. In addition to the seafood, it came with a corn piece and some potatoes but I also added garlic noodles. The meal was delicious overall and tasty. I got regular cocktails- a cosmo and passion fruit margarita. The cosmo was a decent size and boozy. In the end, we were offered complimentary shots and decided on tequila. I was very satisfied with my meal and cant wait to come back and use the %10 off discount.

I visited Jose Fish Market last weekend and must revise my evaluation downward one star to three…read morestars. The service is still great at the counter and the value proposition is still there. However, something has happened to the rice. Let me first correct a few things from my previous review. The front awning does have the name of the restaurant on it. Jose Fish Market is not brightly painted or printed on the awning. Second, they have flounder instead of trout. The flounder is still a generous piece of fish for $11 for the platter with rice and peas. This time the rice and peas were not edible in my opinion. I do not know what happened, but something was very very off about the rice. I would rather have the fish alone and would be hesitant to have the rice ever again here. The chicken wings at $10 for four and fries is still a great value and the wings were crispy and great with the hot sauce, even the fries were good with hot sauce.

I always had a desideratum to dine at Fogo. I always wondered what a dining experience would be…read more Forward. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse is considered an upscale complete with table linens, celebratory atmosphere, and "all-you-can-eat" venue, typically with a bustling, energetic Southern Brazilian cuisine, serving churrasco barbecue style meats and traditional side dishes. This location is in Elmhurst, Queens, NYC and adjacent to Queens Center Mall where patrons can shop and subsequently conclude the day with a wonderful meal. Party of two for "All For One Price" continuous, fire-roasted cuts brought to your table, endless sides, and seasonal specialties from the Market Table - all for one price. The "Market Table" is a open buffet which includes fruits, vegetables, and seafood. This Market Table is very large. Food is very fresh and abundant readiness. I made the mistake to ruin my appetite with crackers mere hour before sitting at our table. Fire roasted meat distribution to table and carved with patrons catching a piece using a tong. Fogo is a meat lover's paradise for a heavy steak meal. The bottom sirloin or bacon wrapped steak, is noted by Yelpers, always dry. The parmesan crusted pork is flavorful and surprisingly juicy. I highly enjoyed the salmon and Caesar salad. The Green Card system is a signaling device used in traditional Brazilian service, known as Churrasco which allows patrons to control the pace of a meal of the "all-you-can-eat" buffet experience. Green Side (Go): When you place the card with the green side facing up, it signals the Gaucho chefs that you want to continue receiving service. Continuous Service: Chefs will frequently visit your table to carve various fire-roasted meats directly onto your plate, including signature cuts like Picanha (top sirloin), Filet Mignon, Ribeye, and lamb chops. Red Side (Stop): When you need a break or are finished, you turn the card to the red side to signal the chefs to stop. Rosé, Montes "Cherub" Colchagua Valley, Chile Dry, seductive, and elegant, it is a very smooth good finish. This wine may me float. I always have a predilection for wine. Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail This drink is made with cachaça (a sugar cane), hard liquor, sugar and lime with ice. It's refreshing for my friend. Chocolate Molten cake with vanilla ice cream One word: WOW! Customer service is very attentive and polite with kindness in a celebratory positive mood. Our party of two were inquired if we needed anything during mid-dinning experience and my friend requested Brazilian grilled cheese, espetinhos de queijo with honey. Pão de queijo, Brazilian cheese puff bread is served. High ceilings and there is a large relief statue of Antônio Caringi, Brazilian sculptor (1905-1981). Business cards and mints are abundantly available for grabs. I strongly suggest table reservations in advance, particularly for weekends and holidays as this large dining hall was bewilderingly very quickly filled as we dined on extreme artic cold February, Saturday. Every day can be one's birthday celebration. I think being alive with another tomorrow is a reason to be celebratory. I would surely return for another visit - enter empty stomach.

Our waiter was nowhere to be found most of the night -- even when it was time to pay the bill. Staff barely came around, and we constantly had to get up and flag someone down just to get attention. If you want a real rodizio experience, go somewhere else. The food wasn't enough to make up for how disorganized and inattentive the service was. Definitely not worth the time or money. Never again.

My work held our Holiday Party here (realized it is the same place a Yelp event I attended was held…read morea month ago). My coworkers were worrying about parking for the 4-5 hour party so I got worried as well (got meter parking the previous time). Good thing I drove around and found so many spots on a side street 2 blocks away. The tables were set up, leaving a small space at the far end for the food and dancing. Would have preferred dimmer lighting for dancing but it was fine. Brought our own speaker to play music. Buffet style for the salad and mains; appetizers were brought to the tables. Meatball apps were a bit salty. Liked the penne a la vodka, chicken francese and the steak. Service was still great. Had option of unlimited drinks/alcoholic drinks and they were brought quickly. Have to remember this place for parties. Or have drinks/eat in the other room where the bar is (I remember there was live music there).

We first discovered Ocean Prime Restaurant and Bar during a Yelp event and enjoyed it so much that…read morewe decided to come back on our own. This time, we ordered the deluxe burger with fries and a side of mozzarella sticks both were really good! The food came out hot, flavorful, and satisfying. The service was great, the staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere has a fun, casual vibe, kind of like a diner mixed with a bar. One side of the restaurant seems to be more of a party area, while the other side has that bar/diner feel. They also have an outside seating area. Theres a live band that plays, which adds to the energy, though I'm not sure which nights they perform. Overall, it's a solid spot for good food, great service, and a relaxed yet lively atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out especially if you like live music with your meal.
