Douglaston​のホッとする料理が食べられるお店

This was the first time we’d been to Alessandro’s since it was redone. Not for lack of interest; just a tough reservation to get! But it sure was worth the effort. The pace looks great, the service was as good as always and the food was better than I remembered. Best artichoke salad and chicken scarparella! Already can’t wait to go back. Bonus, Alessandro is the lost wonderful host. Always makes it a point to come say hi.

I dined here for the first time last Mon, 12/30/24 with my sister & her husband plus 2 priests we were honoring. We were all very satisfied w/ the food & service. Mary Grace was an excellent server. Very pleasant & attentive w/o being obnoxious. The only negative was the sun shining directly on the eyes of one of our guests despite the curtains that were drawn down. It is a come-back place! Today, 1/3, I came back with another priest friend. We were warmly welcomed by the Asst. Manager, Dianne, who was just as friendly & cheerful as Mary Grace. I had an energetic & interesting brief chat with her before we sat. Our server, Louis, was also pleasant & efficient. I also commend the rest of the wait staff who brought our orders to the table. The food was excellent, made even more delicious by the reasonably-priced lunch special w/ complimentary appetizer & dessert, as well as the efficient service. Thank you, Park Place. Keep up the good work! My one wish is for the resto to have an eye-catching huge name at EYE LEVEL and another big sign perhaps by the parking lot fence near Miller St. Driving alone, not tall, & focused on the road last time, I could not see the sign way above the awning, much less the one just above the awning. Neither were the small signs on the front door very clear to a solo driver in the area for the 1st time. I knew I was in the place because of my GPS but not sure since I could not see the signs. I wasted time going around the block 2x to be sure I would park in the right place.

It is our family's annual tradition to go to tavern 18 for Christmas Eve dinner!! We always get our favorite table and the service, food and staff are wonderful. We are grateful for this family tradition.

Over all great except we never got Bread to the table

Nothing fancy, but the food was good, prepared well and fresh. The wait staff was friendly, prompt and responsive. As this is a responsibly priced restaurant, it attracts families, so it can get a bit noisy with kids, along with music and overhead TV monitors. An excellent place for a reasonable night out for family interested in good food with good company!
