Greek Reporter USA recommends Agnanti as a top Greek restaurant in NYC

Agnanti restaurant around Christmas time

The news source Greek Reporter USA took a look at Greek restaurants and made a list of their top five choices – one of them is in Astoria, not surprising. Their Queens pick is Agnanti, located right down by Astoria Park, and seemingly always busy. Being by the park helps, but the food is very good. Here’s what Greek Reporter had to say:

Agnanti is a Greek taverna located in the Astoria section of Queens. With a patio dining area open in the summer, the taverna can be visited all year long. The specialty of Agnanti is pastitsada, rooster cooked in tomato sauce with pasta, but the seafood dishes are not to be missed. The appetizers and mezedes are what make Agnanti’s fans so loyal, while the family-like atmosphere will make you even hungrier. The address of Agnanti is 19-06 Ditmars Blvd, Astoria, New York, and its website can be accessed here.

We’ve eaten here and can confirm that the food is delicious. Favorites include the Greek salad (order feta on the side if you like), zucchini fritters, tyrokafteri (a spicy feta spread), various meatballs and sausages, and their seafood. They often give you a little sweet at the end on the house.
