AI-generated summary

Get the , grilled pork or chicken. One regular calls it the best in the city, though plenty land on nice but not amazing. The and rice noodle bowls are fine and not the reason to come. A small group thinks the whole place is bad.

  • replying to u/killingit0925: I don’t think it’s exactly a food haven, but I think LIC is more hated on than deserved For a restaurant with fewer options, it has a bunch of gems: Hibino for delicious Japanese and reasonable prices, Jora for awesome Peruvian and vibes, Sami’s Kebab for killer Afghan (I know the original is in Astoria), R40 for Argentinian and mouthwatering empanadas, Casa Enrique which USED to be the most reasonably priced Michelin starred restaurant and has a great mole, Inkan for more casual Peruvian and addicting rice and beans, Turk Tuk for comfort Americanized Thai I expected to have to venture to Astoria every weekend for food after reading how LIC was talked about on this sub, but it’s not bad

    Cyclo (same owners as Tuk Tuk), in my opinion, had the best Banh Mi in the city.

  • replying to u/helplessintheus: Don't know how I missed those posts! Saw the least favorite threads, but not the favorites, so I'll go through those for sure. Thanks for the other recs too. I actually went to TabeTomo on their $5 reopening night thanks to this subreddit and it was excellent. Gonna add the others to my list as well, especially Third Kingdom for the vegan food. I live and work in north BK so I'm usually in the LIC/Ridgewood/Flatbush/Gowanus square of Brooklyn and parts of Queens. I'm totally down to venture out though, especially once it gets a little warmer. From other people's posts, it seems like I'm gonna be headed to Jackson Heights at least once or twice for food.

    Cyclo makes nice (not amazing) bahn mi, pho and rice noodle bowls
