Best Casual Restaurants in Queens Village

My wife and I, born 2 days apart celebrated our birthdays with our 4 children and had an amazing experience as we always do at Uncle Baccalas. We took advantage of their anniversary price fix menu. The rigatoni a la vodka was great as was my chicken francaise. My son’s short rib fell off the bone and my wife’s chicken piccata was so tender. My other two children truly enjoyed their grilled salmon. Their only complaint was that it came with a lot of mushrooms on the side which if they knew they would have asked to leave off or replace. Desserts were delicious and enjoyed with the staff singing happy birthday to us and my youngest enjoying the giant cotton candy he got. Never a bad experience at one of our favorite restaurants.

Never a disappointment!!! Food, service, value all excellent!!! Miquel a fantastic server!! The food was top notch I enjoyed the pork chop, my wife Branzino.both outstanding.our friends enjoyed the lamb chops and the Branzino as well!!the appts we shared the mussels, calamari, and the burrata. We shared 1 dessert. We were stuffed!! I took open half of the pork chop which my son enjoyed this morning. Always a great meal.

Tavern 18 is our go-to restaurant. This week we went over three times!! Thursday half price steak night is a great bargain! As always, the food is delicious, the staff are attentive, and the manager Bruno makes it a point to say hello and clearly appreciates his customers. So happy to have this local gem in our neighborhood!!

Awesome food and awesome service, as always. And with so many gluten free choices to boot. What a gem of a restaurant!

Nothing fancy, but the food was good, prepared well and fresh. The wait staff was friendly, prompt and responsive. As this is a responsibly priced restaurant, it attracts families, so it can get a bit noisy with kids, along with music and overhead TV monitors. An excellent place for a reasonable night out for family interested in good food with good company!
