Tracey Douglas: Amazing food.... One of my favorite exotic places!!!
Dan Lam: Honestly everything is great in this place. Definitely try the Chicha as a light dessert. The Mami arepas is my favorite.
Serious Eats: Thin griddled, overstuffed arepas occupy half the menu. Go for the porky mami, stewy pollo mechado, or vegetarian Guayanesa tropical.

Mike Shemesh: Best restaurant in NYC! Cash only. Start with a mixed plate and don't be afraid to eat the more exotic offerings
Violet Bennett: Let the chef give you a recommendation. We had a mixed platter of hummus and babaganoush ect with fresh pita to begin, then the lamb shank for a main. Absolutely phenomenal.
Nora Gomez: Ask Ali for a recommendation. BYOB!
MJ DIEHL: One of the most beautiful beaches in North East, even after Sandy. Fort Tilden part part especially cool. Far Rock great for surfers

Joan Lazar: Fav beach in queens.
Milind Oke: The soups are good, try Hot and Sour with American Chopsuey , it's a little slimy and sweet but really good!
Nitin Alabur: Veggie Manchurian is amazing. Pad Thai is alright. Quick service. perfect to grab a quick bite before checking in at JFK (~ 10 mins drive from T4). Parking is tricky around this place.
Malin Ali Bey: Had curry fried rice... Spicy and good, Kati Roll appetizer was tasty as well.
Lasha: The blueberry pancakes were really fluffy and full of blueberries! The French toast with egg, cheese, and mushrooms was delightfully composed. The loaded nachos appetizer is a great pre-meal dish.
