Elias Corner

Hands down the BEST Greek seafood place in Astoria. Honestly, some of both the best seafood and Greek food in all of Queens. It’s also fairly priced. Everything is unbelievably fresh. The sides are good and they don’t charge an arm and a leg for simple Greek salad or grilled vegetables like other places. Philip and his mother, Jenny, are the most authentic and kind people out there. We bring friends and family from out of town and they are blown away. It’s not a fancy restaurant- it’s not supposed to be. It’s old school Astoria Greek but it’s warm, friendly and so so so so so good.

Food is decent, lovely outdoor space, the problem is our waitress of the night seemed nervous and our food took a longggg time to come, we pretty much finished one dish and waited an average of 30mins before another dish came. Portion was also on the smaller side. They also forgot to bring us complimentary bread we had to ask for it.

Authentic Greek restaurant, came on a Sunday night and I could guess many of the customers were regulars who know the owner. Menu is only available on the wall so asking the server the recommendations worked out in this situation. We shared the red and white grilled snappers, grilled octopus, fried calamari, fried whitening, green salad, lemon potatoes and some white wine. Great selection of seafood, the fish was cooked just right preserving the fluffiness and juiciness. The fried dough with honey was the only dessert available which took a while to come out but I’m not complaining because I had great company!

Exactly what you would expect from Greek cuisine. The fish was perfectly cooked : juicy, flavorful, flaky, spotless deboning. The service was great too: the waitress was attentive, friendly, walked us and showed us the fish we were interested in, and helped us make good choices. The ambience was straightforward - you are here for the fantastic food primarily - with not too loud Greek music. Will 100% return , and recommend to others.

We had a great meal at Elias Corner! The place is very nice and cozy, but also intimate if you're thinking about a cute date spot - like your neighborhood best family restaurant. We came here with our friends whom we haven't seen in a long while and were super happy with our dinner! Service was great - waitress was super patient in explaining how the ordering works (you order up front where you can see the seafood and veggie selections based on the daily menu), and what was on the menu (super impressive that she knew everything from memory). Food wise - seafood in general were all very fresh and grilled to perfection. The flavors were not super salty and are flavorful enough for you to appreciate the freshness and quality of the raw ingredients. I especially liked the grilled calamari - I
