    Visited last night with a group of friends -- super cozy and comfortable neighborhood restaurant (that's definitely worth the trip out from the city). Cool ambiance and lovely bar scene but the true stars are the refreshing cocktail program and the delicious food. Highlights include The Maya (mezcal cocktail) and the Bo Ssam sharing platter. Also LOVED the meatballs -- the best I've had in a long time. Great for group birthday dinners or casual date nights. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    ama is a great new addition to Long Island City! Loved the overall ambiance of the space and the cocktails were creative. If you go with a group, definitely try the large plates - the Bo Ssam Pork was really tasty.

    Great dining experience, with really good food. The chicken wings were amazing. The meatballs are the best! I’ve been here 3 times since the opening and would highly recommend giving it a try!
