French Restaurant · Bedford-Stuyvesant · 98 tips and reviews
Tony Xerri: Great date spot. The cocktails really live up to the price and the atmosphere is spot on. Some of the food was so so, but the french onion soup is great. Baby calamari was sadly rubbery.
Fried Chicken Joint · Bedford-Stuyvesant · 250 tips and reviews
Tony Xerri: Yeah yeah chicken... let's talk about the Surf and Turf. Succulent shrimp, tender steak, and all the extras (mashed potatoes, broccoli) were amazing. Share some baked grits and get a drink.

Piano Bar · Chelsea · 19 tips and reviews
Tony Xerri: This place is a gem. Incredible cocktails and the vibe sets you at ease. It's a living time capsule that you want to come back to over and over again.
Tony Xerri: The beer is great. The overwhelming amount of Gen-Z-ers overwhelming the bar because they're on TikTok is not great. PRO TIP: Get some fries!
Tony Xerri: The setup is beautiful but creating a distinction between the selection of beers was rough for me. Stay away from the Dr. Pepper batch for the same reasons people stay away from Dr. Pepper.
Tony Xerri: Waited an hour and a half in line for a good damn reason. Here's what you get: Pastrami Bacon, Pulled Pork, Beef Rib, Queso Mac n Cheese, Brisket, and the HTBC sandwich. Change your bbq perception.
Tony Xerri: Pet friendly, beer friendly, outside food friendly, straight friendly. Had such a great time hanging out with people that actually talk to one another. Drink here!

Japanese Restaurant · Astoria · 11 tips and reviews
Tony Xerri: Exceptional! The Chef Sushi combo took me back to Tsukiji and the scallop/shitake aioli appetizer was delicious. Fried tofu is always a winner here as well!
Tony Xerri: Small but has a lot of character. Some great places to drink and eat on the cheap as well. Really enjoyed my layover here and so did my dog :)

Tony Xerri: This place is like a Maltese Whole Foods. Seriously. Super fresh and orderly. Everything looked fantastic and ready to eat. Highly impressed.
Tony Xerri: Dont get attached to the bartenders since they rotate quite frequently. Other than that it's a great spot for both tourists and locals. Also right in the heart of Qala which makes it easy to spot.
