I’ve been to many places in New York, but this one had a certain charm. The DJ, the food, and most importantly the staff created a memorable night. Special shoutout to the waiter Blin and the guys for being so welcoming and professional. They made everything easy.

Such a pleasant surprise. The restaurant has a stylish vibe, the DJ kept everything lively, and the staff made us feel like VIP guests.
Shoutout to Blini and Joni for excellent service, and to the boys on the team for being so on point the whole night.

I was lucky & blessed to have won an Instagram giveaway to eat here at PAPPAS! The place was beautiful when we walked in. The DJ & the vibes were very fun. The food was amazing! We had the octopus (a must it was so delicious!!) and crab cakes as appetizers. For our main we had the lobster pasta, the two fishes on the menu, lava cake for dessert, & a bottle of grey goose. We also got to see live dancing which was so cool and fun to watch as I’ve never experienced that before! The photographer took cute pictures of us that we got to take home! Our server was spectacular always ensuring we were good or if we needed anything else. & Charlie was also very attentive. & I’d like to thank Theresa as well because she was very attentive, communicated so quickly & answered any questions I had. Overall, my experience at PAPPAS exceeded my expectations & I would love to come back here to have a great time & eat delicious food with an amazing team!! Thank you!!!

Don’t come on a Sunday if you come at all. I made a reservation for 8 and the place was dead. I was the only dinner…not normally a problem for me but just weird. I ordered a martini and appetizer which were fine. I decided to jet early and they declined my guest two cars I know had no issues…this is why you bring cash. The “accepted” my third and I was gone, never to return.

The perfect party atmosphere paired with great food and service! I came on a Thursday night and was caught off guard (in a good way) by how lively it is here! From the staff handing out sparklers every couple of hours to guest, belly dancers, and a diverse DJ this spot was most definitely a vibe! The staff was welcoming and friendly. The food tasted great and were good portion sizes. I can’t wait to go back and try the brunch menu!

I never leave reviews, but this place really impressed me! Pappas New York has incredible Greek food — the lamb chops were tender and full of flavor, and the lobster pasta was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was great, and the staff went above and beyond. Especially Joni, who took amazing care of our table last Saturday — super attentive, professional and friendly the whole night. Don’t want to forget the sparkling guy Jerry, he was amazing. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in New York!

Best place to have a good time, great food and amazing service. Every single person who works here is so nice and accommodating, I almost did not want to leave. At about 10 PM it gets so hyped and the DJ plays great songs. Great place to celebrate any big event or even a great date night spot! I will definitely be back!

Geri was absolutely AMAZING the kindest man ever. His dancing matched the vibe so well. He made us feel so welcomed and taken care of and I couldn’t ask for a better waiter. He provided us with everything we needed WITHIN the EXACT minute we needed it. 100% RECOMMEND WITH PLACE.

Came here on Halloween, it was a surprise reservation from my partner since it’s been on my list of places to dine.
first thing first , I’m Eastern European and Mediterranean food is my favorite. I’m a very big critique and very honest.
ambience and atmosphere are divine, love how they made it like some cities in Greece
the waiter was nice, but we had to keep asking for water and they kept forgetting…forgetful staff..
espresso martini was very simple, but good, I was expecting some twist in this restaurant, at least the evil eye or something ,but a simple espresso martini.
saganaki – it was very heavy and drenched (usually I love saganaki but it was like a heartburn after the 2nd bite)
Greek spreads: please put more pita, not enough. But the tzatziki was good (I’ve had better) but good, spicy feta was good, the hummus…I was very disappointed…so flavorless, lacked love .
-chef needs to improvise these dishes, especially appetizers which are the best dishes in majority of Mediterranean restaurants
the lavraki was delicious – definitely recommend.

So on Halloween they were supposed to have a show…but the dancers never came…we asked w as waiter/owner he said they are not coming…it was very disappointing…especially dive we came for that experience or we would’ve gone elsewhere for Halloween dining experience…very disappointed .
they did do the grand finale with the sparklers . So that was very fun !
DJ was amazing! Loved all the music , wish there was a dance floor.
Overall I do recommend

This was a spur of the moment brunch plan. We used a deal for four of us. Needless to say for the amount we consumed both food and drinks, it was well worth it!!!
It’s a quite lively brunch spot. There is a live DJ and a very talented belly dancer that walks around entertaining guests.
Vibe is good but pretty loud. So be prepared to shout.
Service was good. Could have been a bit faster but the place got busier.
All in all we stayed about three hours and enjoyed most of that time.
