Update on my review as of 12/1/2025:
I have to update my review. I wanted to take my family there to Parkside restaurant tomorrow so I called to make a reservation and again, this gentleman answered and I asked when is Christian working again so I make sure we can have him again. Instead of giving me a direct answer, he acted like it’s a joke and said Christian can be assigned to work tomorrow but can take off any day. Really?! Is that really the case? It’s unbelievable and this is the SECOND time he said this to me (I have called another time, about two weeks ago and he answered the call too. I believe his name was Mike/Jimmy). Why do they make it so difficult to get the server we want? Even Christian said to ask for him thr next time we plan to dine there.
How can you hire someone like him to take reservations and be so rude? I don’t care if he is the owner but wow. Simply unbelievable. Yes, you can be busy now but the way you act and speak, don’t cry when guests start realizing his attitude and condescending tone of voice. Does anyone in the restaurant realize he can simply ruin the business by the way he handles these reservations? Unbelievable. I’ll take my business elsewhere. Good luck.
—————————————————————————
It’s been a while since we’ve been to Parkside restaurant and wow, the service and the food is still as good as we remembered it. We were seated upstairs and our server, Chris (Christian) was attentive, kind, friendly and professional. The food was so delicious. We ordered the baked clams, crab cakes, porterhouse for two and the penne ala vodka. As for desserts, the tiramisu and the cheesecake was perfect. The house red wine was always the highlight of our night.
And special thanks to the runners as well, Alex, Fernando, and Dario. Thank you all again. And we will definitely ask for Chris again! We tried to go yesterday but the reservation host does not know the staff’s schedule? We understand it’s very busy but it would be nice to have Chris again.

Best dinner in New York City. I came here to celebrate my Girlfriends Birthday. She loved it and we will definitely be back. Food was so good and the atmosphere was 10/10. Great Christmas vibes too. Get the seafood

My Review of Park Side Restaurant (Corona, NY)
Today was my first time visiting this restaurant — and I was truly impressed. You can feel the special atmosphere right away. It’s clearly a classic, long-standing place: there were many older guests, probably regulars for years, and also a good number of younger people too. That says a lot about the quality — this restaurant brings generations together.
The service was excellent — attentive, polite, and fast. The interior has a cozy, traditional charm. It honestly feels like being at home or in a good Italian movie.
The portions were big, and the food was delicious. Real Italian cuisine, simple but full of heart. I especially enjoyed [insert your dish here — for example: “the fettuccine Alfredo” or “the chicken parmigiana”
I definitely want to come back again and would recommend this place to anyone who values great food and a warm atmosphere. Thank you to the staff and owners for creating such a welcoming restaurant.

The owner gave us a warm welcome and seated us immediately in the beautiful, high-end restaurant, which is rumored to have a dramatic 30-year history. I was excited to be there.
Unfortunately, the waiter’s service was consistently poor. He was pushy about the daily specials, placing both hands on our table every time. When I ordered the $23 angel hair with meatballs (to stick to my protein diet), his face showed clear disapproval. He only approved of my friend’s $37 filet, commenting, “This is nice,” which felt like a slight against my less-expensive dish.
The service became bizarre when a kitchen staff member was thanked for a side dish but responded with a strange, negative head shake and finger wag. The worst moment was when my friend politely asked the waiter for extra white sauce for her dry spaghetti; he refused and, without asking, aggressively put cheese on her plate instead. We chose not to create a scene, despite my frustration.
Dessert was mixed: my friend loved her mousse, but my favorite crème brûlée was a disappointment—the crust was burnt, and the cream was tasteless.
On the way out, I shared our experience with the owner, who was sincerely apologetic. Despite the beautiful setting, the bad service overshadowed the evening. I still recommend the place, hoping others get a server who values good service. I left a 15% tip after noting a circled “20” on the bill, a choice the owner understood.

Found ourselves in Corona Queens, went to Parkside, we were not disappointed!! Sat at the bar. Greg took care of us. Fabulous drinks and even better food. I had the chicken paillard, I could hear the chef pounding it out to order, in the kitchen. It was amazing. This is the best restaurant in Queens! Can’t wait to go back and try the pork chop. Thank you guys

A Queens staple. Been in the neighborhood forever. The funny thing is. The demographic inside the restaurant is a sharp contrast to the demographic just outside. But the people still go there for that authentic ‘Queens Style Italian food.’ Come for the great food and also enjoy the ambiance. Plenty of characters in there. Loud talking tables with that Queens, Long Island accent. Very ‘NY Italian’ if ya know what I mean. The food was good. Not 1000 percent gourmet, but very delicious. I went with the seafood dish over linguini. Huge portion. Very yummy. Had lobster, shrimp, mussels. I also recommend the shrimp pasta dish. Check the pictures. Presentation is fantastic. The food looks just as good on the plate as it does in your mouth. Not a fan of the baked clams. They came out burnt. Look at the photo. Surprised they sent them to the table that way. Also a very very small portion. Not what I would expect for 15 dollars. Again. Stay for the meal but enjoy the atmosphere. Lots of characters in there. All straight outta a wise guys neighborhood sitcom. I guess they just can’t help it.
Plenty of parking with valet. Convenient
The pistachio dessert was tasty. Left with enough food to take home. No regrets.

One of the best Italian Restaurants I’ve been too. There is only one other that I know of and that’s Michael’s of Brooklyn! Their Arribiata sauce is out of this world. Alfredo the gentleman up front is incredible. He has lots of stories to tell. Lots of famous people have gone here and it’s based around a Marilyn Monroe theme. Truly beautiful and food is really Incredible and fresh.

This is one of the most amazing food experiences I had in a very, very long time with familia. I was told by an incredible YORK college Professor to check this place out because you will feel like you are in Italy; factual.
