    Peroni
    Gregory C.

    Located thirty plus blocks from Citi Field, this could be a good pre-game dining option if you budget your time correctly. We did. For drinks, we had Peroni beer. Ice cold served in a frosted glass. For starters, we shared the lobster croquets and the grilled octopus. You could taste the lobster in the croquets, and the grilled octopus was served with mango. Both were very good. For the mains, we had the chicken marsala and the chicken parmigiano. The marsala came with mashed potatoes and the parm with pasta. Both were good sized portions and tasty. My buddy actually couldn't finish his parm, so we boxed the leftovers and took it with us to the game. No room for dessert, besides we had a game to catch.

    We're in town for work and thought it would be great to go out for a nice Italian meal. This place was beyond our expectations. The food was spectacular. The service was next level. Highly recommend this place. Wish I lived closer. I would eat here all the time. It will be on my list every time I'm near here.

    Mushroom & Truffle Arancini

    I don't always explore the restaurants near my neighborhood (like the restaurants within a five block radius). It's not that I don't want to, but a lot of it feels like it caters more to certain demographics and I hesitate to go inside and feel out of place. However, me and my friend were walking past this restaurant and decided to check it out. There was hardly anyone there that day. It was pretty empty for a weekday evening. I decided to try branzino, a fish I would never attempt to make at home and would rather leave it to the chefs to handle with. I really enjoyed the fish. I felt that the oil/sauce really helped elevate the taste and prevented it from tasting dry or too fishy. I also tried the Arancini's , which are really good too! It reminded me of the ones I had in Rome. The place is very spacious, clean, and has a very date night feel. I would come back here again.

    Sirloin steak
    Anna Y.

    Went here for a birthday party. The service was great! The waitress we had was very attentive and the venue was very well lit and looked fancy! The food was was where they fell short. It was pretty pricey for Jackson Heights and was definitely not worth the price. My sister had rigatoni alla vodka with chicken for $26 and it was a pretty small portion and incredibly salty that she barely ate any of it and completely lost her appetite. I had the sirloin steak. It was very bland and not well seasoned. The mashed potatoes were good though, but for $50, expected more....either another side or at least a better cut. Sirloin is definitely not worth $50. For dinner for 9 people, the bill came out to almost $800 (we didn't order any drinks or appetizers or dessert). Too pricey and the food does not make it worth it to go back.

    I was looking for a restaurant to celebrate my daughter's college graduation. I checked Yelp and Uncle Peter's was on the list. It looked like there was something for everyone and the price was reasonable enough. They were able to accommodate adding 4 more guests to my party of 10 to my huge relief. The staff was welcoming. All of us were in agreement that the bread with olive oil was chef's kiss awesome. We ordered bruschetta and that was gone in no time too . It felt like we were eating in my auntie's home. Our meals were delicious and they were kind enough to make a dessert for my college grad. We're going to add Uncle Peter's to our must go to restaurants when we're back in New York.

    Ate here today after work as a substitute paraprofessional at P.S. 234 Q. I had definitely ordered and ate the seafood salad as an appetizer, then sirloin steak as an entree and tiramisu for dessert that it had definitely tasted really good and delicious. The service there was also attentive and friendly that my server Angel was really cool and nice while serving up my meals. I couldn't agree more about it. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

    Was visiting from out of town with a friend back in March and my cousin and his girlfriend…read morerecommended this place for dinner one night. We got in line around 7:30 pm on a Sunday and waited about an hour to order our food and another 20 minutes or so to be seated. You pick all the seafood you want first and how you want it prepared. Once you're seated, you get another menu with appetizers and other cooked dishes. Your seafood gets brought out along with any other dishes you ordered. Everything we got was really good and cooked to perfection. It was such a unique experience as well. There's a reason why the wait for this place is so long and I would recommend anyone to come give it a try!

    Came in to check this place out for the 1st time. We had about 12 minute wait. As we move down the…read moreline, we got to area where you place your order from the fresh seafood counter. I noticed some of the items on the display were frozen (red head shrimp) was one of the items. While they do not weight the seafood in front of you. The list the prices up front, so that was somewhat awkward process?? I ask for octopus, scallops, smelts, and a red snapper . The octopus was the most expensive item, it was marked $45 a pound.. We were then sent to 2nd floor for seating. Since we needed a table for 2, we got a very small table near the stairs. The table was so small, we knew right away that it be an issue given the amount of food we ordered. Our waitress came by and we added grilled eggplant, lemon potatoes and the beat salad. The brought us a small basket of pita like bread, hot, fluffy and delicious. So we had all the appetizers but the food took 30 mins and from the looks, it dis not seemed busy. In my opinion, the side dishes should be brought out with main courses but i guess thats NOT what they do here. I recalled asking at the counter for light seasoning on the red snapper. When the fish came to the table, it had some type of breadcrumbs and oil or butter. Which in my opinion is not bad but i appreciate the unique texture and flavor red snapper has all on its own. The octopus was good but i never had it sliced looking like bacon strips. Tasty but different, scallops had a little paprika, cooled perfectly. The smelts were fried just perfectly, like good french fries. I assume this restaurant is a mix of middle-Mediterranean cooking style. Food was tasty, style of service was definitely different. I will come back and try the lunch specials during the week. As a side note, accessing the restrooms was very confusing, they have 2 restrooms, there was a line to get into the restrooms. Very clean bathrooms for sure.

I've never had Algerian-style seafood and was excited to try out Le Petit Pêcheur. We were a party of 6 and made a reservation that same day which was great! We arrived and got seated but weren't explained the process. First, you go up to the fish counter and order the fish you want, the amount you want, and the style you want it cooked (grilled, fried, or sautéed). They've done a great job with the display and I liked seeing the various options in front of me. The worker who helped us was super friendly and took the time to explain what each fish was. I also appreciate that their pricing is transparent (posted on their website). So why 3 stars? Once we finally ordered, we went back to our seats and ordered appetizers, sides, and drinks with our waiter. It took almost 40 minutes to receive the Greek Salad and Virgin Mojito we ordered. We had already received our Fried Calamari before that. Similarly, we got all the fish before the French Fries & Rice Vegetable Medley came out. It was frustrating and took away from the experience the fact that we didn't have the sides to eat with the fish at the time the fish came out. We literally had finished everything when the waiter came out with Lemon Potatoes which we had to send back considering it took too long to get them. It's a shame considering all the food we had was actually delicious. The Fried Calamari was crispy, tender, and not chewy at all, the Grilled Spanish Branzino was buttery, light, and delicious, and the Tiger Shrimp was grilled beautifully and the lemon olive oil mix just enhanced it even more. Even the Marinated Sardines were some of the best I've had. The fish was fresh, grilled/fried properly, and we truly didn't have a bad bite here. Prices are also more than reasonable. There's a clear lack of communication by the staff since two people within our group had provided their credit card to pay and they charged both. It's a shame we couldn't enjoy it as much as I hoped because of the operational issues. Hope they improve with time but until then, I won't be back.

The menu is in Spanish but they do have an English menu if you scan a QR code. I ordered the craken taco, costra taco, verde aguachile mixtos, a half dozen grilled shrimps, a la exotica, and guac with fried octopus. Everything was delicious! This place did not disappoint. Although, next time I'd probably skip the Craken taco and verde aguachile even though these two are a top recommendation. My favorite dish was probably the grilled shrimp. The way they grill it really brings out the sweetness and flavor of the shrimp. I personally enjoyed the la exotica more than the aguachile. The guac was also really good and the fried octopus was a good addition. I will definitely go to their other locations. This is a must try for seafood lovers.

The lamb chops were flavorful. The medium here is on par with medium rare at most other places, and one of our pieces was borderline rare. At the end of the meal we were also offered complementary desert, which was a pleasant surprise. We enjoyed our meal overall, but just know that it's a little on the pricey.
