    Baklava
    Daniel M.

    Walked in because we wanted iced coffee, wife end up buying a surprise bag of assorted pastries for $5. The bag contained a goat cheese croissant, ham croissant and some other fruit filled croissant. The pastries were ok, but not enough to make me go out of my way. The almond croissant was ok, although very sweet for my palate. Cold brew ice coffee was a bit bitter.

    The best iced latte & cold brew

    They are still the best ! Any kind of coffee is Delicious n Top Quality ! The spinach n cheese pies n their sandwiches are amazing n always fresh. Also have unlimited supply of their creams n half n half now so my family n I ate happy customers! I'd give them 10 Stars if I can !

    Cute little cafe with a very local vibe. Ordered the nutellaccino which just had the Nutella sitting at the bottom of my drink so not really worth it. Concerning especially around these times as they don't require all customers to wear masks when coming indoors to order not did I see them sanitizer between customers.

    All ready to eat!

    Popped in late one evening to see if they had any of their (very) yummy pastries left. I had their cheese danish and it was great! When I got home to ate it, I sprinkled a little powered sugar on it and it was heaven. The employee was so wonderful and nice while helping me. I wasn't able to catch his name. In any case, I'll be back again!

    Warm drink on a cold day.

    Great atmosphere, warm and comforting. Their desserts are delicious and the coffee is great. Friendly and warm service from the staff. Highly recommend.

    Small White Macchiato
    Emma J.

    I decided to stop by this place while staying in queens for a bit and wow I was not disappointed at all! I got a small iced white macchiato. The coffee was delicious and sweet and creamy, just what I was in the mood for today. Also there was only one person there making coffee but they did a really great job of doing that and handling customers at the same time. I have no regrets with the coffee and tipped the person who made it as well. I would definitely return and get the exact same thing again!

    When I first started coming here the coffee was truely one of the coffees I have ever had! I ordered the iced white mochaccino .It tasted thick and creamy just like a milkshake. But lately it has become a hit or miss the past few times the coffee has been watered down and not frothy at all...very disappointing when it is so inconsistent, I guess it really just depends on who is making it . It's a very cute clean place inside I just wish they would train all of their employees so there is more consistency!

    Nutellaccino
    Courtney W.

    Great if you are looking for a regular cup of coffee, something sweet to eat or something on the fancier side. I always go for the nutellaccino with oat milk or a chai. They also have breakfast sandwiches and pastries, my go tos are the ham and cheese pie or bougatsa(cream pie). They now have outdoor seating which is great if you are not in a rush and want to enjoy your food and coffee. Hands down favorite coffee spot in the neighborhood.

    All the quality, none of the pretension. Freddo espresso, a modest kitchen making breakfasts and sandwiches, pastries, friendly staff. Casual decor, clean. Outlet extenders by the big table invite you to bring electronic devices. Manhattan prices.

    Competition in NYC is fierce so I have to remember to normalize my reviews. If I was new to NYC, this would be a solid 5+ star cafe. Since I am a new yorker with high expectations, this place is a solid 4.5 star adventure (with customer service & atmosphere bumping it into 5 stars! If you are dairy or nut sensitive, the staff is compassionate and knowledgable. They even offer a macadamia nut milk! At first blush, this place is really easy to miss. Definitely do not judge this book by its cover... after a curious pondering, my first visit was a surprise of artsy ambiance and chill weekend vibe (instagram worthy... I'm not an IG cool kid but if I were, this would be my summer photo dream!) The prices are a bit high but it's new york, high quality ingredients, and the staff seem happy... so I'd gladly pay $1-2 more for a relaxing place with good business owners. It's also pretty greek, in an authentic Astoria way... meaning it's just real people doing real things, speaking greek along the way. It's really nice to see communities sustain their identity while also keeping with the pulse of the city changes & trends.

    Great spot for a quick bite or drink on the way to work. Although they recently expanded outdoor seating to the street so you can sit and relax and enjoy a nice day outside. Tip: coffee rocks!!

The sauce that was served was absolutely delicious with the signature tanginess and sweetness of Thai food. The hot pot that I ordered was also enjoyed to the fullest! The food here was super good but also I love liver so I was glad they had a hot pot option that included that! After a delicious meal, we finished off with the mango bingsu which also was a huge hit! The bingsu was super fluffy and light! This meal was definitely worth it and didn't leave me feeling super heavy. The service was also great even though they were always full house with some parties waiting and only one person serving. I will be back next time to try their Thai barbecue which I saw people having and I could stop looking at! On top of all this, the server or manager even gave me a free Melona ice cream which I paired with the bingsoo after he saw that I was pregnant which I thought was super sweet. I don't live too far from here so I also want to add that even though I have not added a review, I always go to this restaurant to grab a coconut Thai milk tea to go (I am not even a huge Thai tea fan)! For some reason, I love the coconut thai tea from here and always find myself craving it.

The atmosphere is indeed cozy with quaint outdoor seating as well. Unfortunately, I gave their iced matcha latte two tries, on two separate days. Sadly, their version of an iced matcha latte is watery and lacks the matcha flavor, despite being green. It just tastes like milk. It takes a lot of flavored syrup to make this drink taste better, and syrupy drinks aren't good. The first time I had it, I was surprised to be chewing on ginger pieces that were floating in the bottom of my drink. Luckily, I like ginger and, more importantly, I'm not allergic. I passed it off as maybe their unique twist on a matcha latte. When I went back for a second try, I asked them to not put ginger in the drink, to which I was told ginger should have never been in the drink and the whisk they used was likely not fully cleaned from a drink that contains ginger. Uhh, gross! And not a good practice for a restaurant serving the public. I forgave the first mistake and ordered another iced matcha latte with lavender. I get back to my family's house, take a sip, and notice they omitted the lavender. Had to walk back to get it corrected. The young lady taking orders was very apologetic and swift in correcting it. However, her colleague wearing a bandana on her hair was not as kind and seemed to be irritated at my kind request it be fixed. Both of my experiences have been off putting and I simply will not be back! Thank goodness the neighborhood has alternatives like Over The Moon and Qahwah Valley. Espresso 77 would benefit from improved quality of their products, cleanliness, and customer service.
