Everything at this place is absolutely delicious and they are open pretty late until 11:00 pm some nights. Their Berry Napoleon is a personal favorite, but you can't go wrong with anything there!

This is some of the best, and most authentic gelato I have had outside of Italy itself. The owners are from Italy and they are nailing everything! The flavors are simple and actually taste like their source materials and I could not recommend them more highly. I go there a lot, so....

This is the most famous Greek restaurant in Astoria. People travel from the city and beyond to come to my neighborhood to eat this amazing food and they are right because it is incredible! They do not take reservations, but are pretty good about seating people quickly. Go!

Drinks & Nightlife

These folks have bars all over Astoria, but this place has delicious food, creative and tasty cocktails, and is 2 blocks from the apartment. They have an outdoor space in the back and bands. I've had my birthday party here for years and they are always kind and great about us taking over the outdoor space. I highly recommend it!

This is my favorite dive bar in Astoria. They often have live music and events lots of nights and it has the best old school feel to it. Go have a drink and enjoy a band here!

Shopping

This place is a precious boutique nearby with the cutest gifts for yourself or your loved ones. They feature lots of local artists and Queens merchandise that I love and love to support. They are especially great if you are looking for a little souvenir to take home from Astoria.

Parks & Nature

While you're here, definitely take the short walk to Astoria Park to take in the stunning view of the city along the water. It is a wonderful place to end a day.

I refer to this place as "The Organic Store" in my neighborhood. They have organic produce and lots of wonderful natural remedies as well as healthy food and kombucha on tap. I love it!
