Elizabeth Mardones: Sangria us great, nice & strong- seafood dishes are always on point! Lobster was yummy
Rosalina Alves: Eat at the bar. The dining room is nice, but the bar is better!
Village Voice: Stick to the barroom (the gnarled wooden door on the left), get a bucket of Portuguese Sagres beer, and a handful of cod fritters (bar menu only), while you contemplate the chalkboard specials

Lauren: The octupus app is by far the best tasting octopus I have ever had! Love the oyster selection and the shrimp cocktail in a pint glass is A+
@AstoriaHaiku: The people that complain about pricing are precisely the people I'm trying to avoid when I go out once or twice a month. Atmosphere is wonderful, food was delicious, staff was attentive & friendly, A+
John Elezovic: Amazing oysters, wine and cocktails. Don't like any of those? Get away from me.
Matthew Caldecutt: Great service, delicious pasta, huge salads, and interesting apps. Oh, the unsweetened iced tea is unlimited.
Kimmie Ohh: Their portions are huge! Their main dishes can easily be split into at least 3 meals! Their crusted chicken Romano was no exception. Really flavorful & super crunchy.
Edward Delfino: Pretty place, good service, large portions, big variety of cheesecake flavors.
Gajtana Simonovska: Love this place. Outdoor seating. Friendly service. Happy hour and freshly made (not frozen) food will keep you coming back. $2 taco Tuesday and $5 Cosmo happy hour.
Austins Ale House: Have you seen the newly renovated Lounge at Austins??
amNewYork: This is a popular spot for happy hour and beyond. There are 20 beers on tap and a full menu for lunch, brunch and dinner. Austin's offers OTB all day, every day.

Brian Park: Best drinking experience I've ever had in NYC. Excellent drinks, friendly bartending, and absolutely amazing bar food, courtesy of M. Wells. What more do you need?!
Sarena Perez: I really shouldn't put this, because it is LIC's best kept secret. Beautiful interior, great drinks and nice staff.
The Corcoran Group: Relaxed atmosphere with easygoing bartenders who can make any drink you can think of. We’ve heard that the Cherry Daiquiri is particularly good.
