Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Long Island City

We are from Canada and celebrated our 25th Anniversary in NY. We chose Carmines for the wonderful reviews we read. The food was delicious, and the value was outstanding. They serve family style so one dish can easily feed 2 to 3 people. Keep that in mind when looking at the pricing. Absolute 5 star experience. Wait time was minimal with reservation and we booked 2 months in advance. We would 100% recommend this restaurant and their very professional staff made the experience perfect!!!

I’ve been in the city a bunch of times and passed this restaurant many times without trying - had a family day in the city and kids love burgers and shakes - so thought i would give it a try and happy that I did. The burgers were really good, the shakes really good. The service was great - thank you Stefanie. My only suggestions is that you show go in very hungry and not over order as everything comes out oversized . The pretzel barely fits on the table (just kidding) but it’s huge . Lots of food and wish I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch . Next time (and there will be one) I know.

Very cool space, would have loved to eat in the vault! Food was amazing.

An absolutely delicious meal in a truly classic NYC setting. Top shelf across the board every time. Thank you!!

Loved our dinner at Elysian Cafe. Food great, it was 2 for 1 entrees so a great deal! Packed so noisy, but food delish! Service was a little lacking but I think that was because they were so busy.
