Sanfords

Delicious! Portion sizes a little small but ambiance is good and they have a big space. Their happy hour oysters are so good and big too! Drinks are standard.

I have been coming here for over a decade,.....one of the best places to eat and drink in Queens. The wines are superior, to any wine you can order at any bar or small restaurant in NYC. I cannot wait to oneday meet the owner and share my experience with him. Take my advise you cannot go wrong with any wine or whiskey you order at Sanfords.

The atmosphere was very pleasant & upscale. Enjoyed coming here for the first time. Services was excellent, serving apps and entrées on time. A bit expensive on the specials, but good food overall. Steak was cooked with perfection. Wonderful selection of Wine, beer and whiskey.<br>I'd recommend anyone looking for a real American restaurant in Astoria. It's definitely here.

Amazing experience! Service is top notch! Staff are so sweet.<br>Ram our bartender made us great drinks. He was so attentive and made our night even more special!<br>My friend had her birthday drinks there friday april 3 2026 and they really made it special for us. The oysters were fresh and delicious. Great happy hour food as well. The shrimp with the glaze is lovely. We also had the tuna tartare cones.. yummy!<br>Always a great time at Sanfords! 5 star all around.

First thing I noticed when I entered was the decor and vibe. Very cozy but upscale at the same time. The waiters were really on point and super attentive. We started with the Risotto Ball which was scrumptious. It wasn’t dry inside and the mushroom gave it a nice meaty texture.<br><br>I then had the Sesame crusted Yellowtail Tuna. I absolutely loved it. It comes in top of a bed of Jasmin rice and some vegetables. Truly packs a great amount of flavor.

It was the second time my wife and I been to Sanfords just like the first time the experience was excellent !! great Food and great service and staff always attentive and vey friendly. chef Alfonso was nice enough to make a special dessert display for my wife and I for Valentines!! Will definitely comeback many more times. Thank you

It's a just plane neighborhood restaurant, so you can visit it anytime comfortably. The food is average, and the service is truly businesslike. But considering the price, I think I'll go back again.

Had a great experience. The mood, the setting, the lighting is perfect! The food was above and beyond our expectations! The menu has a great variety for all tastes and the price is decent for the portions which are not small . No wait time and the servers were all amazing ! Went with a family group of 6 and a baby . Great for couples or just with friends ..

If I was rating solely the food here and not the service I’d give them 3.5 stars. Overall the food was decent, but they had amazing desserts. I’m deducting a star because two minutes after receiving our appetizers we were served our entrees! We each ordered French Onion soup and literally just took two spoonfuls and our waiter put the entrees on the table! By the time we finished our appetizers our entrees were cold! I never had my entree served when I just got my appetizer in my entire life! A word of advice don’t put your dinner order in until you finish eating your appetizer! For entrees my husband and sister ordered a burger and fries both were decent. I had their lobster ravioli, and it was TERRIBLE! The sauce was bland and the lobster in the ravioli tasted extremely fishy like old fish! The desserts however were all delicious! The fried cheesecake was FANTASTIC! The brownie and peanut butter pie was very good! Decent place overall, but not great with terrible service!

Sanfords is the perfect spot for anyone looking for a meal where the quality of the ingredients and the high standard of service are paramount. Highly, highly recommended!

Wish I could give more than 5 stars. This place is a bourbon lovers dream! The owner Chris what very hospitable and offered many suggestions based on my preferences, and he nailed each one! Sanford's offered 100s, if not more, different bottles.<br><br>This is a must stop for bourbon and whiskey lovers, cannot wait visit again next time I'm in NYC.

Omg the lobster ravioli is so bomb. Midway through the meal I lowkey started to get sick of the cream. The blackberry cheesecake was okay like a 6/10 because the jam tasted medicinal. We just ate the cheesecake part it was so light.

Heard they had some delicious filet mignon springs rolls here and had to give them a try and they were really good! The sauce they give on the side was great nice kick to it and I had the skirt steak sandwich very tender steak my buddy had a burger and it was good as well definitely a nice local spot to get some nice meat dishes

Sanford’s in Astoria is one of those spots that hasn’t changed over the years—and that’s part of its charm. The atmosphere is still cozy, the service friendly, and the food consistently delicious.<br><br>We had the tuna wrap, tacos, blueberry pancakes, chicken wrap, and avocado rolls. Everything was great—especially the wraps and pancakes, which were packed with flavor and super satisfying. The avocado rolls were just okay, but still a decent start to the meal.<br><br>If you’re looking for a reliable brunch spot with a solid menu and welcoming vibe, Sanford’s is still one of Astoria’s go-tos.

This restaurant usually does a good job. I live near by so I've had food from here no less than 30 times in person and pickup order. It is amazing that the food is listed as explicitly organic!<br><br>My one complaint if I were forced to give it would be that there is not the ability to pay for your food at the front of the restaurant, the hostess has to take your card walk all the way to the back and then bring it to you. A portable payment system or even one up front will be far more efficient as you can end up waiting long depending on the time of the pick up.<br><br>Still I love this place.
