Enjoy Italian dishes at Trattoria L’incontro
You can have a taste of Italy in Queens, New York, when you visit Trattoria L’incontro — one of the top Italian restaurants in the city. Their must-try? Mezza luna ravioli — pasta dough dumplings stuffed with mascarpone cheese and pesto, served with an asparagus, brandy and walnut sauce — savoury, fragrant, nutty and wholesome all in one. Skipping your carbs? Go for the Orata al Sale (sea bass prepared with special spices and sea salt, then cooked in the wood-fired brick oven) — we’re sure you’re gonna enjoy every bite of it.
Check out Trattoria L’incontro.

Spice up your taste buds at Jackson Diner
Jackson Diner has been serving the Queens neighborhood for 35 years with its delectable authentic Indian dishes. We love their super flavorful Raita (Indian-style bread), Lamb korma with garlic naan, and Chicken tikka. And the best thing to have after a spicy, strong-flavored meal? An icy cold serving of Mango lassi (a yoghurt, mango and spices blended drink). Satisfying.
