Love Beso. The restaurant is spacious and has multiple rooms all decorated nicely. Their outdoor area is large, quiet and peaceful. The food is always delicious as well as the drinks. Occasionally the service is slow, sometimes the waiters will disappear for a good 20 minutes. Parking is tough. Be prepared to have zero phone reception so go with people you enjoy talking to. Love coming here.

Beso is an absolute gem! Cozy atmosphere, incredible food, and top-notch service. The tapas and entrees were bursting with flavor—every dish we ordered was devoured. The lamb chops were a standout: perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy. Drinks were strong, delicious, and expertly made. The waitstaff really made the experience special—friendly, patient, and always attentive without being overbearing. Can’t wait to come back!

Get the premium sangria pitcher- you won't be disappointed! We didn't try an entrees but a variety of tapas. Chicken empanadas could have have been a bit more flavorfull, the chorizo with bread was delicious and the pulled pork tapa with guac on top was amazing! They bring your bread to dip in olive oil- so good!

You are always guaranteed a good meal at Beso in St. George. They have an incredible selection of tapas in addition to a large dinner menu. Last night we had lamb chops (which I can never resist), chorizo, calamari, and Pan y Puerco (shredded pork topped with cheese and avocado pico de gallo), along with a bottle of Rioja. The restaurant is still beautifully decorated for the holidays and the service is top-notch, especially their manager - she’s a gem!

I had a great experience at Beso on Bay Street in Staten Island. We came to celebrate my aunt's birthday, and everything from the food to the service made it a really enjoyable night. Our waiter, Juan, was excellent – attentive and friendly without being overbearing. We started with calamari, lamb chops, and short rib egg rolls for appetizers. All were fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. For the main course, I had the seafood avocado, and my aunt ordered the same. My cousin went with the paella de beso, my mom had the beef medallion, and the birthday girl enjoyed the Veal Serrano. Everyone was happy with their dishes – the food came out at the right temperature, and the flavors were spot on. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff helped make the evening feel special without too much fuss. I appreciate that the menu offers some customization, which makes it easy for everyone to find something they’ll like. Overall, it was a great spot for a celebration, and I’d definitely recommend it. Five stars from me, and I’m looking forward to coming back!

First off what an amazing place. The mother's day menu was a well thought out plan. Delicious also. I love the fact that I have a peanut allergy and I was okay to eat there. We were treated like family. The decor of this restaurant is to die for. Go there but make a reservation first so you can ensure you will get a chance to enjoy the greatness in store. Have fun!

Stopped in with some family we were visiting on the island. The aroma as we entered made me drool. The wait staff were friendly and very accommodating. We got a wonderful appetizer that was unique and tasty. The sangria is also tasty. We asked for red and white mix and it tastes really good. The meals are huge! Two people can eat one plate. Be prepared to come home full! The place itself is wonderfully decorated and they even have a back room that is almost outside seating. We will be back for sure!

Use to go to the old location all the time a few years ago. Haven’t been in years. Finally went back in February for my best friends birthday and was so happy to taste and see that the food is still just as good as it was years ago. This location is way bigger and so nice. The atmosphere is perfect. We went on a very slow weeknight but can imagine that on the weekends this place is very popular and busy. Loved every single dish and drink that we had.

I went to Besos Restaurant with a few relatives we had a previous reservation and the front desk lady guide us to our table on time. The food was delicious. My only complaint is the waitress got overwhelmed with a few customer tables on the day we visited and forgot our requested of more bread, we were waiting to ask somebody for a coke refill and also they didn't bring us steak knife only butter knife, the staff needs to improve of being more attentive to their customer's and ask how's everything and if you need something else.

We chose this place because it was close to the theater, and we didn't have a reservation. I highly recommend that you take the time to reserve a table. We were lucky since it was during a weekday. The hostess and waiter were friendly and attentive. My only negative point was when I asked if the dessert size was average or large. Our server hesitated to answer. I love the food and ambiance, and lastly, the price was not bad at all for 2 people, one cocktail, with tip 130.

We shared a cran cake pasta and the seafood paella which were both fantastic. Drinks were good. Service may have been compromised because we were in a windowless room upstairs which creeped me out. I’d go back, but rather sit downstairs.

This is a cute place with a decent amount of tables and a bar area. Parking on the street was hard to find. There is a fall menu but they didn’t print it out, you have to go online. They have two single bathrooms and one was out of order for most of the night so I had to wait for like 20 min to use the bathroom. Food was very good, most of what we ordered i liked a lot. In general prices a little bit more expensive than I thought they should be. Also our second round of drinks took 35 minutes to get to us. Apparently the bartender was on a break. Which is fine, they should take breaks but I’m surprised there was no one else that can make the drinks when the bartender is on a break at peak time on a Friday night. We were 4 people, ordered 6 tapas, one entree and two desserts to share and 2 rounds of drinks. It all came out to about 150 a couple. My favorite was the chorizo tapas. It was warm chorizo with cheese and sauce served hot. Very good. We got a cheese plate too but the chorizo on that plate was soft and powdery textured and cold. I also didn’t like the cheese on that plate or the other meats. But I did like the big green grapes. The meatballs on the special menu were very good, soft and flavorful. The chicken empanadas were my favorite. Normal sized empanada, about $4.50 each. Super crispy and flavorful. Moist and delicious. Some pieces of the chicken were chewy but most were really good. The short rib entree was cooked perfectly. Super soft and tender. A bit too salty. Piled high, good portion and also a big serving of pasta with it. Drinks were standout. I like the salted caramel espresso martini the best. So smooth and rich in flavor. Really tasted like salted caramel. Also the pumpkin spice martini was delicious. It was light and smooth and creamy all at the same time, and the fall spices were not over powering. For the salted caramel espresso martini when we ordered the second round we noticed the chunk of caramel garnish was left off. They said they ran out but later brought us a couple of pieces. The cannoli dip dessert was super big and great to share. The dip wasn’t too sweet but it was a bit too whipped for me and lacked a rich marscapone cheese flavor which I usually expect from cannoli cream. We left stuffed! I don’t know if I would come back again. But we definitely enjoyed our double date night!

I was there for Mother’s Day. The food was amazing and the service was great. The crew were okay but they didn’t look genuinely happy for some reason. I enjoyed the food and the music. The bathroom was clean. They did what they could, after all it was a busy day. I wish the server would smile more , even under pressure. That would make me feel more comfortable and welcomed.

The food was good and we have eaten there multiple times . However last night, when stopping by for food and drinks after work,while seated waiting for food , the waitress dropped something directly next to our table and apologized multiple times. I actually thought she dropped water and told her it’s ok. She never mentioned she dropped oil and when I got home I noticed my boots were destroyed and basically garbage at this point. Since she knew she dropped oil on my leather boots she should have mentioned it and since it’s dark inside it’s hard to see. I usually don’t write reviews but this was very unsettling

We stopped in for Happy hour after visiting the outlets as we have several times in the past Sat at the bar that had a decent crowd Asked the bartender if Happy hour was only at the bar and was told Yes so we bellied up and ordered a fee glasses of wine Just Pinot Grigio nothing fancy but was surprised when the bill came and The wine was full price I asked the bartender to correct the bill and she informed me that the wine I ordered was not part of the “select” wines on the happy hour menu Should she not had informed us of this when we asked about the happy hour seating and ordered? I would have just ordered the bottle instead of glasses She did offer the managers phone number but even that I found ridiculous Bartender was a new young female This is where experience matters

Monica

I have to be honest with you I’ve been going there for years. The happy hour was very consistent. Today I went and I spoke to bartender about happy hour menu. I proceeded to sit at the bar for happy hour. I asked for the check,and I notice she charged me full price for the white wine. I asked her about it she told me that the wine I order was not on happy hour. I then told her we spoke about it. All she did was apologize. It was very unacceptable. I will not go back.
