Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Bayside

Always an excellent meal and service! And surrounded by the Botanical Garden

Food and drinks were very good - we were in the quieter outer area but there was a very loud table nearby. Our server was exceptional!!

When I’m fortunate enough to find myself in NYC on business I make time to visit the Met museum; this is the second time I’ve had lunch solos in the Met dining room, and it is cemented as a tradition I’ll continue. The staff are second to none: I was welcomed warmly and treated with friendly, knowledgeable and prompt service throughout the meal. The menu changes on occasion and I love to see what has inspired the chef; today I enjoyed a delicious Bibb Lettuce & Chicory Salad with mashed avocado, radish and a delightful , sherry vinaigrette. The salad was beautiful, and perfectly dressed and seasoned. I also chose a “raw” dish: the yellowfin tuna in ponzu sauce, which was a feast for the eyes. Service was impeccable; my waiter Michael was helpful in choosing dishes I would enjoy & he and the team gracefully set and reset my table between courses, while filling my water and ensuring I could simply relax & enjoy the beautiful view of the park. Thank you for a truly delicious meal in an incredible setting with a a wonderful buzz of energy from fellow museum lovers. I look forward to joining you again when I’m next in town!

Delicious meal, attentive wait staff, great music and ambience! We all thoroughly enjoyed our experience there! A gem of a local restaurant that we always enjoy!

Every staff member with whom we had contact - from the greeter to the waiter - were outstanding. Every member of our group - and there were 10 - were pleased with our dining experience at OpenTable @ Marco Polo's in Great Neck
