Had the best dining experience here. Vibe was impeccable. Their Greek salad and all grilled seafood were phenomenal! Even baklava, the best taste I ever tried. Absolutely the best place to go for the most excellent Greek food in our neighborhood. Great friendly service and ambiance. I can say that you can feel special and at home when you are there.

Wow - Greek food and hospitality is top notch here! We dined outdoors with our beagle today and from the moment we arrived, we were treated with a smile and great service. The staff gave our dog a bowl of water immediately and asked what type of water we preferred. The server was prompt to stop by our table and the timing of the food (free starter - drinks - appetizer - main course) was perfect! One of the staff members saw we were a bit cramped on one side and moved the planter stand. The food here is incredible and I cannot believe we just found out about them. It really took us back to Greece, most especially the chargrilled octopus! There is not one complaint I have about this place and highly recommend stopping by. The outdoor space is equally beautiful especially on a nice, sunny day! Thank you, Aliada, for existing! My husband and I have a new favorite Greek restaurant and in a very competitive area, that's saying something. They do it RIGHT here.

Headed to Astoria for the afternoon, and of course, one has to get some Greek food while in the area. Booked Aliada after seeing some high reviews and after passing by it. The place is super pretty with a very homey Mediterranean vibe. The indoor seating isn't that big, but they also have a lovely outdoor seating area perfect for a summer day. They immediately served us up some free bread and yellow lentil(?) dip. This was good! Also just gotta love a free bread sitch. 1. Greek salad: I've had many Greek salads, but for some reason this hits different. The dolmas that came on top were outstanding- probably one of the best ones I've had. Exquisite juicy tomatoes. Yum. 2. Grilled octopus: damn. I don't know how they got it this tender. Great char on the outside and so soft on the inside. Not chewy at all. Damn this was good. 3. Chicken kebab: this was probably a bit of a letdown. The chicken was tough and overcooked. Expected much more since one knows how the Greeks can grill their meats well. The tzatziki sauce on the side was good though. 4. Roasted Greek veg: free side with the chicken. This was a generous portion for a side and really good. Chunks of aubergine, potatoes, etc. stewed in a tomato sauce. Overall, food was great (save for the chicken which was overcooked). Would definitely still come back to try their other stuff since they all looked good! Vibe was great. Honestly one of the better Greek restos in NY! And prices were reasonable

More like a 3.5 but rounding up because service was great! I had reservations for 6:30 but didn't get there till 7 so they had to sit us outdoors. It was so hot and we were getting bit by mosquitoes, but the hostess really did her best to accommodate us. She moved us indoors as soon as she could. Our waiter was also very attentive. The cocktails were delicious, I really enjoyed my strawberry fields! We started off with the watermelon salad which I thought was very interesting as I've never really had cheese on watermelon. It was fresh and I did enjoy it. The fried calamari was okay - I wish we had gotten the grilled as I saw the reviews after. The star of the night was definitely the baked halloumi cheese. I would come back just to have this again!

Elias our waiter met us with a smile and phenomenal service and food. we had the Spinach pie, Loukaniko, and chix kabob. The salads were so fresh that the tomatoes tasted like they were picked that morning !!! We sat outside and with the Greek music playing in the background, the soft breeze, If you closed your eyes you were in Greece 10 out of 10 !!!

I can't praise this Greek restaurant in Astoria enough! It's become my go-to spot for showcasing the best of Greek cuisine to visiting family and friends. The quality of food, service, and charming ambiance never disappoints. Every dish on the menu is a delight, but I always make sure to order the grilled mix and Greek salad - they're absolute must-tries! And let's not forget about the baklava; it's warm, nutty, and utterly delicious. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Went here for an anniversary and had the best time! Everything was amazing! We had the Chef's Mezze Experience and it was definitely worth it because of the great food and variety of Greek dishes! We went for dinner on a warmer night in March and sat in their covered outdoor area. The ambiance made us feel like we were having dinner on a warm greek summer. They had olive trees and white tables which made it feel nice and bright. It requires at least 2 people to participate and it was definitely more than enough food to make the both of us full! We started with a greek salad, 5 spreads and some beets and olives. The pita was soft and warm and our favorite dip was the whipped feta with red peppers, but this experience allowed m to try things like a salted and cured roe dip which I surprisingly enjoyed. We then had multiple dishes consisting of fries, grilled octopus, different sausages, and hen. The grilled octopus and hen was perfectly cooked and our favorites. The drinks are also really good and I appreciate their large variety of greek wines along with multiple organic choices. The service here is also really amazing. They are helpful through the menu if you are not familiar with all of the dishes. They realized we were celebrating something provided us shots of ouzo on the house. A really nice, unexpected surprise. Absolutely coming back to try their brunch on a sunny day!

Dinner at Aliada Restaurant in Astoria Amazing Greek food and service at this restaurant. It's been around for long time...22years. Go now!

You know you've picked the right Greek restaurant when you look around and realize everyone is speaking Greek! Aliada is the perfect spot for great Greek food and really good service. We went on a Sunday evening without reservation and thankfully didn't have to wait long, but given how popular they are a reservation is recommended. I got branzino which was fresh and perfectly cooked without being too oily. And they give you an option to choose between two sizes of fish, and 600g is perfect for one or even for sharing between two. I'm not the biggest fan of "market price" pricing, so it was a plus that Aliada's menu has everything specified. The vibe of the restaurant is lively and fun, great for large family gatherings as well as dates.

We schlepped over to here during a snow squall, and while the food wasn't quite good enough to justify doing that again by choice, I'm not totally mad I did. The Shieftalia was succulent and tasty. And the 600g of roasted Branzino will satisfy even the most metrically challenged American in terms of tender fish and lemony flavor. Simple, unpretentious Greek/Cypriot fare without all the pricey bells and whistles one finds in Manhattan--THAT'S the reason to come to Astoria. Also that grilled pita and white bean dip is on point.
