#5 Sizzling Steakhouse

Shared by Zane Mercer – 34 ❤️

“Let’s hit the borough that quietly runs the show: Queens, NY 🗽🌍 Old-school class with Greek flavor woven in. We sat down for bone-in ribeyes and garlicky lamb chops in a room that felt like a family gathering. White tablecloths. Red wine. That New York steakhouse swagger, but with heart.”

#4 Dim Sum Delights

Shared by Jordan Stone – 79 ❤️

“No trip to Queens is complete without Flushing’s dumpling royalty. The soup dumplings here? Legendary. We waited in line, ordered double, and barely spoke once the food hit the table. That’s how you know.”

#3 Koala Kicks

Shared by evan young – 80 ❤️

“An Aussie-inspired corner spot with gluten-free magic and avocado everything. Their barramundi and beetroot salad combo? Wildly good. Also, points for the name alone.”

#2 Queens Spree

Shared by Rose Chandler – 85 ❤️

“A little chaos, a little charm. We ducked into Sephora, sampled snacks at the Filipino bakery kiosk, and people-watched our way through every level. It felt like the heartbeat of the borough — loud, busy, and alive.”

#1 Pasta Perfection

Shared by katy klyne – 125 ❤️

“To close it all out — red sauce, candlelight, and pasta that deserved a standing ovation. We shared a bottle of Barolo and laughed about how different Queens was from the rest of NYC — and how much we loved that.”
