Guidebook for Queens
Food Scene
Awesome coal-oven pizzas, wonderful pastas and craft beer. Best to go before 8 when it gets a bit crowded. They have a lovely outdoor patio if the weather is nice. I recommend the burrata and tomato toast as well as the mushroom.

There are many good Greek restaurants, but this is a must since it by Astoria Park and the food is really fresh. You must try the zucchini croquettes and the cabbage salad. I also like their whiting.

One of my favorite wine and cheese places in the city. Amazing small plates and locally-sourced cheeses with a great wine list. Good very early because it is small and they do not take reservations. I recommend getting there when it opens at 5pm.

If it is still summer when you visit, it is worth the ferry ride to experience New Yorkers at the beach. The water can be a bit rough so be careful. Make sure you get some Venezuelan arepas on the boardwalk - delicious.
