Came here with a few friends a few weeks ago (after a workout class so we were appropriately starving) and tried a smattering of things that were all wonderfully delicious. We had the beetroot hummus, tabbouleh, kebbeh, sambousek, and cheese rolls. And decided to split falafel and the shish tawouk platter which was so perfectly seasoned and cooked. There were still so many things we didn't get to try but I will definitely be returning. Also, side shoutout for the mint lemonade - refreshing!

Had an amazing time at Fattoush! The food was so fresh and delicious. Amazing service staff, owner and lovely decor. Overall a great experience and can’t wait to go back again soon!

We were starving in New York and ended up having Lebanese food — it was absolutely delicious and so satisfying! Every bite felt like comfort after a long, hungry day Liza was so helpful in choosing the meal she was humble and kind loved her kind gesture

Liza and Natalia were incredibly accommodating and attentive, the service here was 11/10 stars, the food here is beyond! We had the appetizer for 2 and the grape leaves were delicious!!! Just run!!! Don’t walk here!

Have you tried any Lebanese or Mediterranean food? This is YOUR place! Great service, magnificent food, and awesome flavors! Fresh salads, veggie rolls, juicy and spiced meats! You can indulge yourself with these Lebanese food and take a dreamy trip to Lebanon. 100% recommended even if you're not in the area! Thank you for an amazing dinner with my wife!

The food was so good, and so was the service! We got the appetizer for 4 people and it was such a great portion! The quality and variety were amazing, and the atmosphere was great! Come to this restaurant😄

Nevermind the delicious food, their hot sauce is to kill for. Marcela is very pleasant! I used to wonder why the place is always packed and now I know exactly why!

Everything we had was amazing! The four person appetizer platter was the best part. Marcela kept us happy and hydrated. Couldn’t ask for more.

Everything was amazing. Our wonderful server, Natalia, was incredibly kind and accommodating, and the owner personally made sure everyone was happy and well taken care of. This is one of my favorite restaurants, and I will definitely be coming back. I would recommend this place again and again!

Delicious food, big portions, ample service. Everything was so fresh (especially their vegetables) and yummy definitely coming back. $22+ but quality and quantity make up for it

Such a delicious meal!!!! The oysters were so fresh; all of their seafood is super fresh. The grilled octopus was cooked perfectly it was soft with a slightly crispy outside from being char grilled. It had a great char flavor paired with the olive oil and vinegar was perfect. The pork souvlaki was my favorite of the night. The pork was juicy and had great flavor. I really like their tzatziki it’s very fresh with lots of cucumber. The lamb chops were also pretty good. I don’t usually like lamb because it’s gamey but this wasn’t and it was also cooked perfectly. They also gave delicious bread with a mashed olive dip at the start and a custard baklava type dessert for free! 8.5/10

Delicious seafood (grilled octopus and branzino were amazing), great hospitality, warm and welcoming staff that accommodated us despite the lack of reservation. Popular spot - the place was packed and got even more crowded an hour before closing.

This elegant, authentic greek seafood restaurant constantly has a 45 minute wait on Friday and Satueday nights. The meal is worth it, crispy olive bread with tapenade in olive oil, greek salads, a dozen varieties of fish including shark and swordfish as well as beef, chicken and lamb. The seafood pasta and the salmon were exceptional. Greek sides such as chard and lemon potatos follow the large entree portions. Excellent wine selection. Complementary house dessert with every meal. A staple of Ditmars, Tavern Kyclades never disappoints.

This is the place to get seafood. Very busy, but do t let that discourage you because at the end you'll be rewarded with some real, real fresh and delicious seafood. The octopus is simply fenomenal, the special combo seafood for two is amazing and the stuff filet of sole very tasty. All this complemented with a glass of sangria. Can't beat it. If you don't have reservation get ready to wait for at least 45 minutes, but it will be worth it.

We have been wanting to go here for a very long time, but just never quite made it. That was a mistake! They don't take reservations so we waited for a while. It was fine the area has a lot to see and do, so we walked around. We had the village salad, Kyclades special (seafood platter),grilled chicken, rice, and potatoes. There was only 2 of us, and enough food to feed 4! Each bite was better than the next! All the food was fresh and delicious, and reasonable! We will be going back a lot! Great Greek food!🇬🇷

We visited Taverna Kyclades and had a wonderful experience. The service was impeccable—every staff member, even those who weren’t our primary server, made sure we had everything we needed. For appetizers, we enjoyed crab cakes with fried zucchini. For dinner, my husband had a white fish stuffed with crab meat, while I had a pasta dish featuring five types of seafood: octopus, mussels, clams, scallops, and shrimp. Every bite was full of flavor, and the portions were incredibly generous—we had to take half of our food home and enjoyed it for a couple more days! Overall, the combination of excellent service, delicious food, and large portions made this a truly delightful dining experience.

Delicious Greek food in the heart of Astoria, Queens. Even though I liked the old location better, the new location is 2 blocks away from the old location. Waiting time is about 45 minutes and you can’t reserve before you go. It’s difficult to find parking in the main street but you can find parking in the streets a little bit far from the restaurant. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

We had a wonderful experience. It was my first time here, but my friend had been here before. We didn't have to wait for a table but got seated right away which was a pleasant surprise. The food was great! I loved the spreads, the octopus, the baby shark, also all the sides, and the ginger mint mocktail. I am coming back to this Astoria gem!

Outstanding food, always waiting to go back! But this place gets so packed and you will consistently expect waits (even a Sunday after 6pm was quoted 45-min wait). Local favorite- don’t skip out on the appetizers! The dips are insanely good. Taverna Kyclades is pricey but worth it.

Grzegorz Rozum

A staple Greek spot in Astoria! One of the most popular Greek restaurants in the area—and for good reason. The portions are huge, so come hungry or plan to share. The food is simple, authentic, and really well done—no frills, just honest, flavorful Greek cooking. It does get packed on weekends, so expect a wait, but it’s definitely worth it.

Generous portions and a nicely designed, cozy restaurant. We arrived around 6 pm without a reservation and were seated immediately. At that time, the restaurant was about half empty, but by around 7 pm it became packed. I noticed a shift in service once it got busy—it was harder to get the waitresses’ attention—but they were still very friendly. The food was delicious—especially the cheese roll (puff pastry with mozzarella and feta) and the Shish Tawouk, which was perfectly grilled and flavorful. They offer complimentary tea served in a teapot, though it’s made with tea bags. Loose-leaf tea would be a nicer touch, but considering it’s complimentary, it’s still appreciated. Overall, a nice spot for casual dining.

Hank Ng

Really affordable, came for lunch. The dip is great for groups but could have done without. Couldn’t taste the crab dip that well. The calamari was sucha great deal and large portions. Good crisp, wish we had a touch more lemon. The Branzino was the star, good portions. All for about 100

ALPER YILMAZ

octopus and whiting were some of the best I've had, and the seafood pasta was delicious. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients, right down to the amazing olive oil on the table. The place has a great, bustling energy because it's always packed. Be prepared for a possible wait, but trust me, the meal you'll have makes it all worthwhile. Highly recommend!

Fatima Skornjan

Ambiance is clean and fast paced, service on point and the 5 dishes ordered were melt in your mouth delicious. Loved the olive bread, olive spread and dessert all on the house😋👌

The place feels a bit packed inside, and we ended up waiting 45 minutes for a table for two on a Friday night, definitely a popular spot. The portions are generous. We tried the grilled octopus, which was flavorful and tender, though the spices were a bit overpowering. The seafood pasta was just okay, plenty of meat, but nothing particularly memorable. The lemon roasted potatoes leaned more boiled than roasted. On a brighter note, the free dessert was a delicious surprise.

RG Mr News

Nice bright blue and white colors. Plenty of inside and outside dining available. The oysters were nice. The grilled octopus 🐙 was the highlight of my visit. I should have stopped with those two dishes. I had the stuffed shrimp. Visually appealing. Way too much stuffing on each shrimp, and the shrimp were chewey and overcooked. Staff was friendly, and the service was good.

No consistency. See attached picture of a $50 red snapper. That was last week. Who knows what I’d get next time I order red snapper. Something similar happened when I ordered grilled salmon -lunch special. I also suspect they re-serve the bread. I got cold and old bread (perhaps picked up from previous tables) while most of the times it is warm and fresh Not consistent. GET IT TOGETHER! PS: waiters and waitresses are nice.

I’ve been going to this restaurant for years, and it has always been great. Unfortunately, this was the first time I’ve ever had an issue. Last night, my food was not fully cooked. I sent it back to be cooked again, but even after that, it was still undercooked. The photos show the leftovers I took home. I don’t know why this happened, but it was a very disappointing and unacceptable experience, especially given how consistently good this restaurant has been in the past.

Abby Rosado

We always see this restaurant busy so we decided to have dinner with our family. The waiter was amicable but didn’t mention price point when explaining the difference between a red snapper and a pink snapper. He recommended it to us and was super selling us on this fish. The price on the menu was marked as “MP” which we thought okay it would be reasonable. When we got the bill, the pink snapper was $200! One fish was $200. If you’re thinking of having good seafood, please opt for HAMIDOS. The scallops, lobster tail and red snapper at Hamido’s is much better.
