The main draw is the impeccably fresh food including addictive fried smelts , fennel and orange scented sausages , and authentic sagnaki, which arrives without the usual showy gimmicky flames. Read more

Offering plates of zucchini fritters , fried salt-cod with garlicky skordalia , and fresh fish brought right to the restaurant by Long Island fishermen who are friends of the owner. [Eater 38 Member]

Serious Eats

No restaurant is more homey in Astoria than Gregory's. Get the grilled octopus with lemon , or the cheese-stuffed peppers kissed with char. Read more

Some of the best Greek food I’ve ever had. Fries didn’t travel very well , so if you’re doing take-out, you’ll want to run them under the broiler at home.

Patrick Healy

Big fan. The grilled octopus is fantastic. Service is good - for the most part. Prices are fair and the establishment is no frills. Good for families too. Very patient with the kids.

Michael Spinelli

The kind of old-school family-run neighborhood place that’s becoming rare in NYC.

Adam K

Wonderful family spot to while away a summer afternoon with dips , saganaki , octopus , fresh porgy , and lager in green bottles

Serious Eats

Super-casual Greek restaurant with homey but satisfying food, great octopus , and some outdoor seating in warm weather.

The best chicken souvlaki platter in town . Authentic Greek food , authentic Greek soundtrack.

Robin Brunelle

A true gem, definitive of Astoria. Always get the fresh fish . It's right off the boat, whole, and grilled. Also: lemon potatoes , yum!

Joyful Belly

The single best Greek restaurant in New York City and possibly anywhere outside of Greece. Authentic as it gets. Full of soul in the best way possible.

Village Voice

Bring out your inner carnivore with these spectacularly meaty lamb chops . Served with rustic fries , these chops rank number 6 on Robert Sietsema’s top 10 lamb dishes in NYC .

Adrian Jank

The Pork Chops are flavorful, tender, and downright delicious. The portion is massive. You'll walk out full and a big smile on your face.

Public House Wine

Make the trek to Queens, and you'll be rewarded with some of the freshest seafood in the city . The octopus might be the best of your life.

Max Nisen

Octopus , fried smelts , and the grilled whole local porgy , which will change both your life and opinion of the fish .

Claudia Filth

Seriously amazing. Fried cheese is heaven. So is their zucchini fritters and the whiting.
