Beso

I’ve been to Beso in Staten Island several times, and I went again yesterday before a show at St. George Theatre. From making the reservation to the amazing food, service, and overall experience, everything was great once again. I was with a group of 8, and our waitress, Christy, was amazing—she took everyone’s food orders quickly, made sure we had everything we needed, and stayed on top of drink refills all night. Even though it was a very busy night, the food came out in a timely manner and everything tasted very fresh and delicious. I will definitely be going again and would highly recommend Beso to others.

We went to Beso Thursday night to more or less beat the weekend crowds. I dont know what's taken us so long to go back to this gem! We got there around 6:20 and sat at the bar. Mark, the bartender informed us that we had a few minutes left to grab the Happy hour specials. Even though we were set on get the prefixe menu, we couldn't resist the Happy hour appetizers. The lamb chops were done to perfection. The enchildas were plentiful and tasty. We still ordered the prefixe as we like to enjoy the food the next day gor lunch or dinner. I'm doing thinking of the clams and chorizo! The broth was beyond amazing! The Limon chicken was not your basic boring chicken. It was tender and tasty, off the hook!<br>From start to finish everything was A+. Mark was fabulous, the food was hot and served quickly. We will not be hesitating the next time we go out... we're going back to Beso!

The food was good and we have eaten there multiple times . However last night, when stopping by for food and drinks after work,while seated waiting for food , the waitress dropped something directly next to our table and apologized multiple times. I actually thought she dropped water and told her it’s ok. She never mentioned she dropped oil and when I got home I noticed my boots were destroyed and basically garbage at this point. Since she knew she dropped oil on my leather boots she should have mentioned it and since it’s dark inside it’s hard to see. I usually don’t write reviews but this was very unsettling

Haven't been to Beso in over 10 years and it did not disappoint! The food was absolutely amazing I can not think of one bad thing we ate. Their Tapas for menu was perfect and came with so much food. Can't wait to go back which will be very soon.

Went with a group of friends I hadn’t seen in years. The restaurant was EXTREMELY accommodating. That alone made it five stars for me. Then the food was amazing and the service was great. Would highly recommend.

Beso!!!!! Tapas on Staten Island absolutely delivers. Honestly, just about everything on the menu is a must-try—they really did their thing here. Even on a packed Saturday night, the service was solid and never felt rushed. What really stands out is how comfortable and enjoyable the dining experience is—you actually get to relax and enjoy your food, which isn’t always the case when a place is busy.<br>This spot truly needs no introduction, but if you haven’t been yet, don’t walk… run. It’s a fantastic dining experience for groups of all sizes and one of those places you’ll want to come back to again and again.

I went to Besos Restaurant with a few relatives we had a previous reservation and the front desk lady guide us to our table on time. The food was delicious. My only complaint is the waitress got overwhelmed with a few customer tables on the day we visited and forgot our requested of more bread, we were waiting to ask somebody for a coke refill and also they didn't bring us steak knife only butter knife, the staff needs to improve of being more attentive to their customer's and ask how's everything and if you need something else.

We chose this place because it was close to the theater, and we didn't have a reservation. I highly recommend that you take the time to reserve a table. We were lucky since it was during a weekday. The hostess and waiter were friendly and attentive. My only negative point was when I asked if the dessert size was average or large. Our server hesitated to answer. I love the food and ambiance, and lastly, the price was not bad at all for 2 people, one cocktail, with tip 130.

Yesterday we had dinner at this beautiful restaurant, and I’m still thinking about it…<br>Everything from the cozy atmosphere to the impeccable flavors was simply perfect.<br>A special thank you to Laura for her warmth, attention, and wonderful recommendations.<br>And to the chefs for creating dishes that were not only delicious but truly a feast for the eyes.<br>If you’re in New York, make sure to visit this gem — it’s honestly one of the city’s finest 🤍

We tried the steak and empanada. For its flavor and freshness, this is a restaurant we'll return to regularly. The olive oil and olives served before the meal were some of the most delicious snacks I've had in a year. The service, by the way, is 5 out of 5. You feel right at home. It's a pleasant atmosphere where you can chat without rushing.

We decided to celebrate some career milestones at this upscale restaurant. Although it exceeded our expectations, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. The food was delectable, and the drinks were equally impressive. The service was prompt, and they even took pictures to commemorate our achievements. New York City is known for its high prices, so be prepared for a bit of a splurge.

We shared a cran cake pasta and the seafood paella which were both fantastic. Drinks were good. Service may have been compromised because we were in a windowless room upstairs which creeped me out. I’d go back, but rather sit downstairs.

I had a great experience at Beso on Bay Street in Staten Island. We came to celebrate my aunt's birthday, and everything from the food to the service made it a really enjoyable night. Our waiter, Juan, was excellent – attentive and friendly without being overbearing.<br><br>We started with calamari, lamb chops, and short rib egg rolls for appetizers. All were fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. For the main course, I had the seafood avocado, and my aunt ordered the same. My cousin went with the paella de beso, my mom had the beef medallion, and the birthday girl enjoyed the Veal Serrano. Everyone was happy with their dishes – the food came out at the right temperature, and the flavors were spot on.<br><br>The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff helped make the evening feel special without too much fuss. I appreciate that the menu offers some customization, which makes it easy for everyone to find something they’ll like.<br><br>Overall, it was a great spot for a celebration, and I’d definitely recommend it. Five stars from me, and I’m looking forward to coming back!

I was there for Mother’s Day. The food was amazing and the service was great. The crew were okay but they didn’t look genuinely happy for some reason. I enjoyed the food and the music. The bathroom was clean. They did what they could, after all it was a busy day. I wish the server would smile more , even under pressure. That would make me feel more comfortable and welcomed.

Stopped in with some family we were visiting on the island. The aroma as we entered made me drool. The wait staff were friendly and very accommodating. We got a wonderful appetizer that was unique and tasty.<br><br>The sangria is also tasty. We asked for red and white mix and it tastes really good.<br><br>The meals are huge! Two people can eat one plate. Be prepared to come home full!<br><br>The place itself is wonderfully decorated and they even have a back room that is almost outside seating.<br><br>We will be back for sure!
