Below average.. – Do you enjoy awful service and near-deafening noise? How about greek food inferior to your local gyro shop at gourmet prices? Or wine prices only a hedge-fun manager could love? If the answer is "yes" to any of these answers, Ammos is for you!

Not getting a second chance from me!! – One of the worst dining experiences ive had in NY. Our reservation got lost and we were taken to a cold part of the restaurant where a group of waiters ogled my wife for the remaining evening. Our waiter promised we would enjoy the "fresh" fish only to deliver a burnt, poorly seasoned and butchered portion. The "wine expert" clearly had no idea what he was talking about and tried to pass off a bottle of house wine as his premium stock. He took very good care of the neighboring VIP cust... read more

Food is HORRIBLE – When I first came to Ammos a couple of years ago, the food was decent. I guess the fact that these people created a "name" for themselves has allowed them to not care anymore. I recently went to Ammos for Valentine's Day and got a HUGE FATTY piece of steak....I'm sorry but nobody likes to see that....It was dry and disgusting- I only took one bite. More recently I was there for a bridal shower and ordered the chicken breast and oh boy did I get it. They didn't even have the audacity to slice it thinner- it... read more

local delight – been to ammos nyc as well, have to say, this one is cozy and i love the atmosphere. It's great for big groups. I saw a bday party next to our table and looked like alot of fun. Don't be suprised to find similar quality to manhattan in astoria for less price. definitely hard to get to by mass transit though.

Where do I even begin... – Folks, this restaurant was a complete dissappointment. There was prompt seating but truly slow service. The appetizers were just, well, nothing special. The calamari, octopus, and saganaki were acceptable. The roka salad was embarrassing - simply store bought and prewashed - had been stored in the kitchen for too long. You can get all of this in any of Astoria's many Greek restaurants for a much lower price and better quality. The best bet was the fish, of wich I myself had the Porgy and also tried... read more

what is the fuzz all about – ..the deco is soooo nice that we expected the service and food to be the same ... the Waiter was very slow that we thought it was a tactic for us to order more appetizers but then the greek spreed took 20something min. to arrive the fish was good not great I had better.. thank god my company was great it made up for the wait...ups did i tell u that the fondue we orderd wasnt lid and when we told the waiter he told us nobody in the kitchen told him to lid the candle ...wow

Delicious Food and Exceptional Service – The first time I visited this restaurant, it was very late on a weeknight and I'd just had a guest arrive from out of town. Despite the fact that it was late and we were among the last few diners, the staff was inviting, more than accomodating, and didn't rush us one bit. We had delicious food that was flavorful and fresh. Since this experience I've had many more equally as good visits and was so excited that they opened a location in Manhattan as well.
