The 10 best Greek restaurants in Astoria, Queens for 2026: whole grilled fish tavernas, meze on Ditmars, and old-school institutions, all verified open.
- 1Ditmars-Steinway · 36-01 Ditmars Blvd, Astoria, Queens, NY 11105
The Ditmars taverna that put Astoria whole fish on the citywide map, with a grill that runs nonstop and a room that has been packed for decades. You come for fish pulled off the flame with lemon potatoes on the side, and you leave with free galaktoboureko whether you asked for it or not.
It takes the top spot because no Greek restaurant in Queens has stayed this good under this much pressure for this long, with Michelin and every food publication in the city on record agreeing.
