Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Long Island City

Great ambiance; loved the DJ. Not overcrowded on a Monday night. Great spot for pre or post theater dinner.

Our experience was great we celebrated Valentine’s Day the food that we order was the chicken parmigiana bits and the flat bread that was hard and had to much oil or grease we also ordered the maple crème brûlée and it was ok wasn’t the best and also the Dubai chocolate we were thinking it would taste like chocolate but instead it taste like dark chocolate with gold flakes but overall it was a great experience

The waiters & waitresses are very attentive and knowledgeable about the food served here. They patiently answer your questions about the dishes and give valuable recommendations. We ordered Veal Shank (Osso Buco alla Becco) with a side of three pastas of the day and Chicken Parmigiana (Parmigiana di Pollo). To be honest, pasta tasted decent, nothing spectacular about it. The veal shank is beautifully cooked for several hours. The meat leaves the bone without any effort, it is very juicy, soft and rich in terms of flavor due to the fat content. Chicken Parmigiana is also very tasty and crisp! We also ordered drinks, the spritzer resembles aperol spiritz and it is very good however I cannot provide a positive comment if you order wine by the glass. The wine tasted like it is diluted when you order by the glass so if your party is a good wine drinker you better go for the bottle.

I must echo the comments of anyone who calls the alderman a hidden gem. It is truly a little oasis in the hub of Times Square with some of the best food and service I’ve had in a long while.  Everyone we encountered was professional, polite, friendly, relaxed, and service was on point at all times. A special shout out to Hersey at the bar and our server Ethan, who was just tremendous honest and very attentive, to the lovely manager, a young blonde woman whose name I forgot sorry. Had the perfectly prepared salmon and flirt steak entrees from the prix fixe menu plus ALL the other TASTY courses and they were very generous portions, very satisfying and a wonderful value. Cannot recommend this enough if you are going to a show or you just want to have an enjoyable evening dinner lunch or just a coffee from the front barista station. The ambience is warm and tasteful. Like sitting in a garden! Just terrific. You won’t be disappointed.
