    Bulgogi with Rice

    Great food, definitely get the wings and the Mac and Cheese balls. You won't regret either. The wings take time to come out, but they are worth the wait. The decor transports you to another place. It's beautiful on the inside and out. The service was good too. Can take some time for the servers to get to you because there is an upstairs and downstairs (outside) location.

    Still a solid spot for date night and brunch! huge menu and a lot of variety. Was craving chicken and waffles and the chicken was so yummy. Good amount of protein with the carbs. My friend ordered the club sandwich but was mostly iceberg lettuce. But the fries were crispy. We stayed for a three hour brunch without feeling rushed. They also have mocktails which were yummy.

    A good korean fusion restaurant. A popular restaurant for dates. The pastas here are good and well cooked. The brussell sprouts are a must have when its available. It is crispy and delicious. Service can be slow because they are constantly understaffed.

    If I could give this place a 20/10 I would. Sweet Sap is a must-visit. The food was great and everything felt fresh. The wings were a standout, hitting that perfect balance of crispy and tender. I visited twice in one weekend (Saturday and Sunday) just because I couldn't get enough. 1000/10 will return

    This place looks like somebody's fancy home. It's decked out with lights in the front, and is definitely a nice place to bring your date. Believe it or not, this was a place I wanted to visit for over 7 years based on customer pictures and reviews. I bookmarked this restaurant 7 years ago, and then had kids, young kids... and wasn't able to visit until recently! It did not disappoint, the food was so flavorful, and the service was fast. The chicken wings is a must, its the perfect crunch moist combo. It very crunchy and crispy on the outside, but so moist and juicy on the inside. I came here on an overdue date with my wife when the kids were at school. As we ate our dishes, I knew that we had to bring our kids here. We eventually did and both of our kids loved all the dishes. My oldest child said she definitely wants her birthday at Sweet Sap in a few months. Truffle fries, Brussels sprouts, and chicken wings are a must for appetizers. Will be coming back very soon.

    The place is so cute. I was like wait what?! I was greeted quickly. The server was nice. He was alone so the service was slower but also on his phone a bit. Food came out fast & it was delicious but I wasn't asked if I wanted anything else. A group of 4 did make a loud comment of "I really hungry"

    The birthday tour continues as we recount our lunch with our bestie Laurens. I never went here before and when I suggested it since I was going to be in Flushing, Laurens jumped to show me what The Sweet Sap had in store. We were able to pick where we wanted to sit as it wasn't too busy. There seemed to be few staff but they managed very well regardless. I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. I knew we were getting Korean fusion dishes, but I'm not gonna lie, I was skeptical when I saw how cute the place was. Our food came out and proved me wrong. The stand out dish were the cheesy rice cakes. The bulgogi kale flatbread was a close second. I feel like it may have needed more sauce. What a great spot, in a solid location in Flushing, where I was able to find decent street parking. I'll be back for sure.

    Been here a couple times already and the food is great. It's always packed when I'm here so the service is a bit lacking. I do really like their outdoor covered seating section because they have beautiful string lights and earthy decor, but there's no staff downstairs so you have to wait quite a bit to get service if you're seated there. This is an Italian, Korean fusion spot and somehow they're able to get both cuisines right. Their stuffed shells were perfectly cheesy and with a nice tomato sauce. I really enjoyed their burgers and sandwiches. The shrimp burger is delicious and has big chunks of shrimp inside. The spicy chicken sandwich has a huge chunk of breaded chicken and the sandwich itself is too big for one sitting. I think the only miss for me would be the chocolate cake which is overly sweet, but may just be a preference thing.

    would definitely comeback for the burgers, food is decent & the smoked brisket Burger were exeptional good! The waiter were really nice. Love to decoration

    The food here is disappointing. My coworker ordered the katsu over rice, but it didn't taste fresh at all--it was stale and tough to chew. The chicken wings were tiny, especially compared to other Korean spots nearby. On the plus side, the restaurant has nice decor with fresh flowers out front, and service is quick. However, the staff wasn't very attentive--we had to flag them down to order, and they didn't note my request for less rice. Prices are on the higher side for a local place, and unfortunately, the quality doesn't match.

    I'll start by saying this place has its perks and downsides. It's a cute place, with large covered outdoor seating, and up a large set of stairs, an indoor setting. They do have a nice variety on the menu, including salads, sandwiches, pasta and some Korean dishes. My grilled chicken sandwich was delicious, with fresh mozzarella and balsamic, with crispy, thin fries. My aunt had the chicken katsu curry, but she wasn't really impressed, it's described as a rice bowl, but more so just a plate with some rice, chicken cutlet and curry sauce poured on top. The service kind of brings it down, I don't think one person smiled, and anytime I asked for something, it was like pulling teeth. My water glass sat empty as well, never a refill. I've been here once before and had a much better experience, but this one let me down a bit.

    This place was pretty decent a lot of sticky food. If you're into that for the most part, we liked everything a couple dishes were subpar. Not sure if I'll come back here. The service was great. The ambience was pretty cool. They have some outdoor areas where you could also sit.

The inside is absolutely beautiful and while they have tables, they also have more traditional floor seating. We got a couple bites of food to eat, some of their tea, and some cocktails. Their food was very mediocre, at best. While the persimmon cake SEEMED to be made in house, it was very clear that everything off their food menu required minimal preparation (ie. for the dumplings, it was just har cow). I also thought their cocktails were okay, and out of the three we got, none stood out to me. I did enjoy their tea, however. But, it was also fairly expensive for what it was (~$50). Overall, I thought this spot was okay for the price and I'm not sure I would return.

We came with a fairly large group and ordered several teas and snacks to share amongst us. There were several options for the flavors of tea and each one had different benefits as well. I loved all of them, particularly the fruitier ones. As for snacks, we had this fried taro snack that had a crispy biscuit outer layer that was delicious. It was a bit of a sweet & savory mix, but not strong in either sweet or salty flavors. There was also this persimmon snack that was filled with nuts and other things. It was slightly sweet, very unique, and both paired well as a tea time snack. They're also open until 11:30pm! So if you want to skip the bar, I'd recommend checking out this tea spot for a nice hang out.

It was three oysters, similar to Crown Shy except I wasn't a huge fan of the flavoring here. The nigiri sauce didn't really elevate the flavor of the oysters much as they're already a slightly salty food and a soy sauce sort of just added more salt to it. I think a bit more kick was needed to enhance the flavor profile. The handroll set was pretty good, I liked the spicy tuna the best, then the salmon and then the yellowtail the least. In order, I'd probably give the spicy tuna a 9/10, salmon 8/10 and yellowtail 7/10. However, the tiramisu was fantastic, one of the best tiramisus I have had, creamy, good notes of coffee flavor and wasn't overly sweet. Our server was also very friendly, she showed us how to properly eat the handrolls which was nice. The place also has a nice vibe to it, very relaxing and not too loud or overly grand.

We asked about happy hour since Instagram said they had it, but turns out it's not a thing anymore. They owned the miscommunication and took care of us, offering $8 wine, discounts on a couple appetizers, and even a complimentary extra glass of wine to make it up. We ordered a few things off the tapas menu. The popcorn chicken, the octopus, uni and foie gras, short ribs, and beef tacos. The short ribs leaned a bit dry, but everything else was on point. Standout by far was the uni and foie gras. A little pricey for 4 pieces but very delicious. Big shoutout to the 2 staff on site, very friendly, warm and responsive throughout. I would recommend Tavern 157 if you're in the area looking for something casual with good drinks and food and not in the mood for Korean food.

When we asked the waitress about this, she said that the statement in the menu isn't updated, and that they charge this fee on weekends because it's busier (not stated in the menu). Mind you the restaurant was completely empty when we walked in at 8pm. However, the waitress did ended up refunding us the difference for the tip.
