Came here for happy hour, which IMO is the best happy deal in Floral Park. Found out from the bartender that they have a Thursday Burger Night Special which runs all day. Huge Burger with cheese and a side of fries for $10. Combo with a happy hour beer, it was like an "adult happy meal". We will be back, especially on a Thursday !!

Our family of 5 had a wonderful dinner here. It was our first time but won’t be our last. The service was top notch and super friendly. Delicious drinks and food. We were there during LI restaurant week. Great choices. 3 of us got short rib ragu, one got the drunken chicken parm and one got penne à la vodka off of the regular menu. All delicious and nice sized portions. Great apps and desserts as well. Highly recommend.

The best shore grilled oysters outside of New Orleans I have ever had. The food service everything was incredible. The gumbo and the jambalaya were over the top. Definitely will go back.

The ambience and the food were amazing. The crudos were particularly delicious. And we loved the entire staff, especially our server, Rene. He was so personable and gracious. This was our first visit, but it is now our new favorite UES restaurant. Can’t wait to come back again soon:)

All of the servers were absolutely amazing! Thank you Olivia and thank you young man in the cowboy hat! The food was surprisingly good. I say “surprisingly” because two of us are South Carolinians and the local recommended Virgil’s. We were skeptical but absolutely loved it down to the Carolina Gold sauce! We will be back next time I’m in town!

    My birthday dinner at **Voodoo Queen** was absolutely wonderful! The food and drinks were delicious, and the staff made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Everyone was so much fun, welcoming, and accommodating! From the atmosphere to the service, everything was on point. Choosing Voodoo Queen was definitely a great decision, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun night out with great food, drinks, and exceptional service! 🥂🎃❤️

    It’s always a pleasure to eat at Peaches on Lewis Ave. I head to this particular location even though there are two closer to where I live. I enjoy the vibe ( no pun intended 😉) here most!
