The Museum is the only cultural institution in the United States dedicated to the exploration and interpretation of film, television, and digital media.
Contemporary Art Center: You’ll find artwork up and down each staircase and behind every door. Crucial to think of this not as a museum, but an exhibition space. Read more.
Return to 5 Pointz again and again, because the artwork changes constantly and the artists participating are really talented.
Enough with the fried pickle tips. We get it. When you're here, get yourself a Rootbeer Cocktail. If you're hungry, share the Mac and Cheese. If you're feeling frisky, talk to the girl at the bar.
An Astoria favorite for craft beer, Sunswick has an incredibly helpful staff and an encyclopedic food menu. Not sure which of their 35 rotating beers to order? Just ask!
Great place - no TVs, not so hip that it's overrun with hipsters. Bartender Chris was great. Small but delicious and unusual beer & food menu. The turducken was outstanding.
Just across the river is this beautiful oasis that is never overrun with people! Enjoy running (there also a track), biking, tennis, a play or a relaxing picnic. They also have free WiFi!
Can you believe that the simplest of sandwiches can possibly be the best? I can after coming here. Order a flight of craft beer then get a pint of your favorite. Music can be a bit Indie sometimes...
Relaxed atmosphere with easygoing bartenders who can make any drink you can think of. We’ve heard that the Cherry Daiquiri is particularly good.
Il Bambino has a fantastic wine and beer list, and always has delicious specials to offer. Make sure you try the prosciutto, gorgonzola dolce, and fig spread panini...it's incredible.
Cutest decor. Great beer selection. Super friendly service. Good wine... And food too. What else could you ask for?!
Inspired by Italy and the local greenmarket, here, the emphasis is entirely on local: the produce comes from the Brooklyn Grange, and the walls are a gallery for local artists. Come for the wine tap.
Down some beers while garage rock plays at this low-key neighborhood pub. Join the locals chilling at the bar over an American or international brew. Read more.
The menu, chalked on a blackboard, changes daily, Taste: beef tartare sandwich, rabbit terrine, vegetable banh mi...A place that every food critic will check out. Chef and co-owner, Hugue Dufour Read more.
Cedars is a meat house proper, not just a shawarma joint, so you can get your pita filled with a variety of meats, but our money's still on the beef shawarma.

I agree they have the best gyros Ever...n the real one not the frozen patty. My boyfriend n I share the beef gyro plate w/ rice or fries n greek salad w/ an extra pita 4 $10!
Authentic Brazilian churrasqueria great meats you pay by the pound.
Everything we had - gumbo, fried chicken, jambalaya - was delicious! The decor inside is awesome. I felt like I was in Bon Temps, LA minus the vampires.
It's hard not to love this place. Aside from the amazing mofongo and the "Fatty Sandwich", consider having yourself one of the best sangria's Astoria has to offer.
Wonderful addition to the neighborhood - great number of choices and toppings. Friendly staff and quite well designed space.
The Sapporo-style miso ramen broth boasts more than twenty ingredients, including three types of umami-boosting miso, plus a piquant seven-pepper spice blend. Read more.
Good food, beer, service, location and decor. We had the carolina and farmers market burger, both great! Definitely go here. We even got free desert :)
Krya Pikilia, an assortment of traditional specialty spreads, is the best way to sample them at Bahari estiatorio. - Inspector

Best brunch in the neighborhood! Plus you can't beat their burgers and a nice pint of black and tan.
Stumbled upon it on accident and had some great quiche. French onion soup is excellent as well. You might have to wait a while for your food but it's worth it.
For that "old New York glory" feeling order up the Queen's Road (Gold rum, OJ, honey syrup, ginger, and bitters) inside this supper club housed what was formerly the Paramount Pictures' commissary. Read more.
I have nothing to say except I love this place. Their selections always seems to be expanding too.
Weekend Brunch is probably the best bang for your buck you'll find. Three course meal and three drinks. Try the french toast at least once, you won't regret it. Awesome staff, too!
You'd be crazy not to get the smoked pork belly. It blows the burnt ends out of the water. While you're here be sure to try one of their organic sodas and stick around for the free apple pie. Awesome.
A gem of a restaurant in Astoria . Great food. I had the baked stuffed lobster special. Out of this world. Come now before everyone finds out. :-)
"Amid the mostly meaty options, the “Guayanesa Tropical” ($6) arepa holds its own, bolstered by a rich combination of fried sweet plantains, creamy wedges of avocado, and firm, mild Guyanese cheese." Read more.
Currently my favorite spot in the neighborhood. Fantastic food, wine and service. Yum.
Friendly service. Excellent Brazilian hamburgers and fries. And try their fresh juices.
