"Astoria’s most popular BYOB institution is also our top choice for eating platter after platter of seafood with a big group of people. The Greek restaurant is always buzzing with birthday parties and family gatherings, so you should always check before you put your bag on a chair, because there could be a baby sleeping soundly on it while her parents work their way through their branzino. You should also always over-order—and stay late if you can for the last hurrah, when they turn the music up, and groups of uncles wave their paper napkins around as they finish up their last six pack." - willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
