Welcome to Astoria of Queens




Astoria in Queens, N.Y. has bloomed a diverse array of restaurants that may soon rival manhattans restaurant scene.  Astoria is located on the north west tip of Queens and it is a 10 minute drive to Manhattan and is also adjacent to Long Island City. The Astoria population experienced an increase after the 9/11 attacks which led many manhattanites to move out of the borough and seek new residences in Brooklyn in Queens that were still relatively close to the city.  New building construction appeared in every nook and cranny of Astoria. The new population increase led many new businesses to open and a substantial amount included restaurants. I have been living in Astoria Queens for the past 16 years and have seen my neighborhood grow beautifully.  There are eating options for everyone and many of our restaurants are top rated. In this blog I will write about my favorite restaurants in Astoria along with my top picks for bars and clubs in the area as well.  There are new restaurants and bars opening weekly in our little corner of the world so check back in to catch the latest reviews.  Astoria is very diverse, like Queens itself, who has the biggest melting pot in the world, so there are appealing venues for every taste. 
   Astoria is not only appealing because of their cuisine choices and night life, they also have great schools, museums, parks, children activity centers, health and fitness centers, bakeries, shopping, and the list just goes on and on.  I plan to cover as much as I can and I would like to tend to my readers so please leave a comment if you would like me to visit and write about a certain interest you  have in Astoria. I hope I can feed your curiosity and spark an interest in you for this wonderful corner of Queens I love, ASTORIA.
