    Closed by the health department. Idk how it stayed open for so long.

    This place was unsanitary. Residents of Forest Hills have been complaining about it for years and the inspector finally closed it.

    White Radish burger brunch special
    Betty C.

    Went for Saturday brunch and enjoyed the White Radish burger which had a fried egg on top. It came with fries as well. I struggled getting the burger to fit in my mouth. Cooked perfectly and delicious flavors. Service was a little lacking-- never refilled my water until we waved down someone. The place was not packed so it wasn't noisy. We were seated right next to the bar and could have a conversation.

    The stars were given just for service, not the quality of the service... the service was good. The food should get only 2 stars. The drinks were beh... yes that's a technical term. The watermelon and feta salad was pretty.. and that's about it.. it was served in a checkered pattern and that's it.. almost no seasoning whatsoever! The ravioli, frankly tasted like is was the fresh pasta you buy at Costco with a watered down cream sauce with a few drops of truffle oil on top.. The duck 2 ways... well, they shouldn't have done one of the ways... it was so dry! The beast was nicely cooked, and luckily it was served on top of some terribly cooked cubes veggies, but it was lucky because the veggies kept it from touching this terrible pineapple based sauce. We sat outside on a beautiful day, ava it was nice but for the homeless woman yelling at us for a couple of minutes.

    Celebrated a birthday here in an intimate setting. The staff, especially Carlos, were so accommodating. The food was delicious and the service was amazing!

    The burrata! So beautifully colorful!

    I've been eating here since the beginning and came with my family for Easter dinner yesterday mainly because I saw recently the restaurant was in the news of needing local support. There's a petition on change.org that you can easily join if you pass by the restaurant and scan the QR code. I have loved White Radish from when they first opened and I will say their food has remained consistently good (prices have gone up significantly though, but that's understandable especially if you see the sad news article about how they've been impacted by the LIRR construction) and delicious throughout the years, and the ambiance is still beautiful (seems maintained well), and the staff are very friendly. Despite the price increases (which I have to admit make it hard to come frequently), I do think the food is worth the price because it continues to be delicious, fresh, and still generous portions. I really wish they would have Specials. This is my personal opinion only, but for a restaurant that's a neighborhood local - if you want "regulars" to come back on a regular basis, you have to offer some variety. I know they introduced the Daikon menu so that's new, but it's more or less the same menu since 2020. I used to go to Jack & Nellie's several times a month because they had weekly specials so you wouldn't get bored of the menu. I think White Radish could benefit from seasonal specials since they are farm to table, and diff veggies/fruits are always better during different seasons. I also think if prices were lower, you could get more traffic and more regular business (at least I can speak for myself as I know I'd eat here more often), but again I understand the financial situation they're in and it's really not their fault. So I'm happy to keep supporting this local favorite however I can. Ps forgot to take photos yesterday but I got the Chicken (still as yummy as it was day 1), the Sauteed Brussels - delish and perfectly cooked, the mussels (wow the sauce is something you want to drink), and the dessert cake - perfect and not overly sweet or dense - nice and light and makes you feel like it's guilt-free!

    Radishes & Burrata Salad
    Jan P.

    Meh. Food is average. They added an attached sushi restaurant and it looks ok but after having eaten at white radish I wouldn't bother. Not impressed at all. Service is good and servers are very nice. But, the food was sub par. Pickles on the pork belly sliders have zero taste. The pork belly was cold and fatty. The fries were good though. The Caesar salad was average. Not worth $14. The scallops and shrimp app was ok. Not exciting. The bread pudding was good but again, not worth writing home about. The decaf coffee was very good and very hot!!! Would not return. And it's a weird combo of restaurants.

    Halibut
    Lesley O.

    Interestingly enough, I was surprised to find that this restaurant is also preparing and serving the Japanese food for the restaurant Daikon, which is next door but accessible from White Radish. My friend took full advantage of this fact and had miso soup and two sushi rolls. The miso soup was very salty, like more than I've tasted before in miso soup; but the depth of flavor was rich and robust. Considering it was 21 degrees outside, I was happy to taste it and drink the warmth. I chose the Halibut with ratatouille and a basil cream sauce for dinner and it was truly spectacular. The fish was cooked to perfection and the juxtaposition of flavors was really unexpected but awesome. The service was friendly and attentive, and I look forward to my next visit.

    Shrimp Mango Salad
    Jonathan A.

    Stopped by White Radish for lunch and really enjoyed the experience. We had the chicken Milanese sandwich, steak panini, burrata, and mango shrimp salad. The burrata was creamy and fresh, paired nicely with ripe tomatoes and greens -- simple and well-executed. The mango shrimp salad stood out with its refreshing balance of sweetness and acidity, and the shrimp were perfectly cooked. The chicken Milanese sandwich and steak panini were both flavorful and satisfying -- hearty, well-seasoned, and clearly made with care. Service was excellent -- Anton was warm, friendly, and made us feel welcome right away. Food came out quickly and was nicely presented. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and enjoyable. Would definitely come back for another lunch or dinner.

    Thai Roll and unagi roll
    Sally J.

    The sushi is great here and nice atmosphere but service needs a lot of improvement . I've given it 2 try's so far and both times bad service. We sat down at sushi bar and we were the only ones in there. Why doesn't anyone approach us for a drink order? Both times we were tired of waiting so we went into bar area next door to get our drinks. Also had to flag someone down any time we needed anything including the bill. The service really needs to improve or you won't last! I don't think I'll be back

    I'm only giving this place four stars and not five due to the service. It could've been much better, but the servers were sometimes nowhere to be seen or have forgotten about us. We had to ask them multiple times for different things, and shouldn't water be refilled without asking for it?! Oh yes, and there's no need to make reservations here. There's plenty of seating. Regarding the food, we had the burrata, which was pretty good. I had the pesto shrimp dish with noodles. I finished it all as I liked the entire dish. The salted caramel bundino was different. I had to look it up as I didn't know what it was, and the waiter was nowhere to be seen to ask. Once the waiter came back, he wanted our order asap. Anyway, I won't be returning bc the staff has to be better. The food was alright, so in that aspect, there is no need to change, but maybe the people working there need a deep dive on how to be a customer focused.

    Lox and Avocado Toast, Mimosa, Espresso Martini
    Ka C.

    I absolutely adore this little brunch spot in the heart of Forest Hills. The atmosphere is on point with upbeat but not overbearing house music, rustic yet classy decor, and tables that are reasonably spaced (I'v been to too many cafes where I feel like I am elbow to elbow with other patrons). They also have a full bar which is amazing. The food came out quickly, and the staff checked on us a few times during our meal. I got the smoked salmon avocado toast with a mimosa (just a couple of dollars more for the upgrade from regular OJ!) and it came with SO much smoked salmon. I could not believe it was only one portion, I ended up sharing some with my partner and still had more than enough left for myself. Quality was also top notch, the salmon was fresh and not mushy. I think the price is a bit higher than what I would expect from the area, but it was still worth it. I would love to come back to try some other brunch fares.

    Chicken and waffles
    Andrew K.

    Came here because of the hype listed as one of the best brunch spots in the area. Honestly, was a bit disappointed. The service was great. The servers were super nice, pretty attentive, and got us in quickly since we had a reservation. Didn't expect a reservation to be necessary but they were turning people away (Sunday around noon). The menu for brunch was a bit on the limited side, $27 for each item with up charges for certain things. This price is somewhat unwarranted. For example, the vegetable omelette with no meat is included in this $27 price. As was the eggs benedict with no meat, a chicken sandwich, and chicken and waffles, all things I would expect to be cheaper. Cocktails were an additional $15 each, which is pretty pricey for the ambience of the spot. We went with the chicken & waffles and the steak tips sandwich. The former was fine. It came with blueberries and strawberries, an unexpected addition. I appreciated that the chicken was drumsticks instead of traditional breasts, and they were huge drumsticks. However, the breading itself was a little lackluster and fairly dense. The latter, the steak tips, was a bit better. It's served on focaccia with a nice chipotle mayo sauce and it comes with a good amount of meat. The fries it came with were standard, nothing to rave about. In retrospect, probably would have rather given this place a chance for dinner and going somewhere else for brunch. It's attached to a cute sushi restaurant I would consider trying.

    Steak Panini
    Susan C.

    Came here for brunch with friends last weekend and was pleasantly pleased. We made reservations for noon since during the summer this place can get packed during peak brunch hours. Since it was the day of Christmas Eve it was pretty empty with only about 3-4 tables until around 1pm when it started to fill up. When we arrived we were seated right away, presented menus and ordered coffee to start while we perused the menu. Brunch is a prix-fixe menu $26.95 for each item with added $ for certain options. I didn't realize it came with a drink (coffee/tea it seems from some other reviews?) so I didn't order one, though the staff did announce $2 for the first mimosa with brunch...so I wasn't going to say no to that! Food came out quickly within 10-15 minutes of ordering, and we were quite surprised by the very ample serving sizes. My friend had to use a fork and knife for her burger bc it was too large to hold lol. The steak panini was likewise very sizable and both came with a solid amount of good fries (*and by good I mean crispy on the outside of the fries). The steak and eggs were perfectly cooked, with a fresh tasty salad, though the potato hash was a bit soft and bland imho. My chicken and waffles were delicious--the fried batter could have used slightly more seasoning but the inside of the chicken was moist and tender. Two drumsticks was generous. The waffle was soft and fluffy with fresh berries. I would order this again. Overall impressions were it's a bit on the higher priced side for brunch, though a comparable value for the portions and I'm adding on an extra star since service was friendly and helpful, (oh yea and that $2 mimosa).

    I really enjoyed lunch at this place! They've recently rebranded to Austin Street Cafe/Bar & Grill…read more- and they have a sort of diner-esque vibe with a full-service bar ($7 happy hour cocktails!!!) They started us off with a croissant on the house, which was pretty good. Nice attention to detail as it was served with a heart-shaped side of butter. Also part of their happy hour menu are a couple select bar bites. I went for the chicken quesadillas, and it was a hearty portion at their price point. And it had a great flavor - chicken was nice and juicy. Natalie was our server, and was very attentive and friendly throughout our time here. And just when we thought it couldn't get better, Natalie and the manager brought us some cookies on the house to take home. Nothing but praise to be sung about this spot - I hear they're looking into possibly incorporating live music next. Will definitely be back - two thumbs up!

    This place has been renamed "Austin Street coffee and grill" and has an updated menu…read more First off, I want to point out the great customer service from the young man working on a Saturday morning. I heard him making jokes with customers and asking people for feedback. Now to the rest of it: service is weird and slow. When we were seated, we had to wait a little bit until receiving menus. Water wasn't automatically given to us also, so you have to ask. A woman took down our order, but later asked if we got waffles, even though I said pancakes - overall took 25 minutes to get our order of a salad and pancakes. Pancake platter came with two pancakes, two eggs, and a couple berries on the side. There's also an option to add sausage or bacon but no price there, which adds to the confusion. When we pointed it out, they removed the charge from our bill. There were maybe 3 people who stood behind the coffee bar which is kind of around a corner, making it hard to get service if you're not in their field of vision. Kind of strange there isn't a clear welcoming desk or something like that. Also, I think the menu uses AI as photos - there's a picture of a burger with fries and chips, but I don't think they serve chips. There's also a picture of cake with garlic next to it, which could be an artistic choice. We didn't get any drinks, but there was a table next to us who abandoned their full cups of Nutella lattes which was interesting.

    The Food The cooking…read morehere is the real thing -- not the flattened, one-note version of Indian food that so many places settle for, where everything arrives tasting vaguely of the same sauce. At Tikka n' Talk, the spicing has genuine architecture. Each dish has its own personality, its own balance, its own arc from first bite to last. You taste individual spices rather than a generic wall of heat, and there's a depth underneath that only comes from someone who actually knows what they're doing. The tikka is outstanding and lives up to the name -- properly charred at the edges, smoky from real high-heat cooking, and still tender inside. That combination is harder to pull off than it looks, and getting it right every time takes skill. The curries have body and complexity. Sauces that have clearly been built rather than assembled, with layers that reveal themselves as you eat. Nothing is greasy, nothing is heavy in the bad way, and nothing tastes like it came out of a can. The bread deserves its own mention. Fresh, blistered, warm -- the kind you keep tearing off pieces of long after you're full. The Room and the Service The name isn't accidental. This is a place designed for lingering, and the atmosphere delivers on it. Warm, comfortable, and genuinely welcoming without being fussy. It's the kind of room where conversation flows easily, where you settle in without noticing an hour has passed. The staff are a huge part of that. Warm, attentive without hovering, and clearly happy you came. They know the menu cold and will steer you well if you ask -- including on spice levels, which they'll actually calibrate to what you want rather than defaulting to whatever's easiest. That kind of care shows up everywhere in the experience. Food comes out hot, timed well, and exactly as ordered. Basic things, but plenty of places fail at them. The Bottom Line Tikka n' Talk is the rare restaurant that's excellent on every axis at once -- the cooking is skilled, the room is inviting, and the people running it obviously care. It's become a regular for us, and I recommend it without hesitation to anyone who asks where to eat. If you haven't been, go. Order more than you think you need. Stay a while -- the name is an instruction, and it's good advice. Highest possible recommendation.

    Imma repeat customer. This time, I orderes a lunch special via Uber Eats. It wasn't windy cold day…read moreso my food was still hot when it was delivered. I ordered the goat curry special which came with a side of dal, bread rice and a sweet kulab gaman for $17. The goat meat was tender, the curry isn't hot or spicy, the dal had a hint of spice from mustard seeds, rice was cooked and fluffy. I used the bread to sop up all the food from tray. SO delicious!! With Uber Eats costs and tips, it cost around 25$.

The staff at reception and at the table were attentive, friendly, and welcoming. Food-wise, we tried the Kung Pao calamari and wagyu meatballs after seeing other reviewers rave about them, but both felt a little gimmicky to me. Our group mostly stuck with more traditional brunch items, including breakfast burritos and omelettes, and those were fine.
