Best Restaurants for Groups in Sunnyside

From the moment I needed to change the reservation from 6pm to 7:30pm, Heather was so wonderful and accommodating. Then when we sat down to eat, our waiter gave us multiple items on the house (perhaps because Heather told him it was my birthday?). The food was wonderful. The vibes were lively and fun. The decor and aesthetic was beautiful and elevated. The ladies room was divine (I loved the fountain!). Our booth seating also overlooked a beautiful Columbus Circle. Quintessential NYC. All in all, such a special dinner with my girlfriends to celebrate my birthday!

Our server was friendly. Attentive yet didn’t rush us. Food was fabulous and ambiance was really fun. Loud overall, but didn’t ruin the experience.

I took my daughter to The Palm Court at The Plaza for Afternoon Tea for her 12th birthday (first time for both of us) and we had an absolutely wonderful time. We both had the “Central Park” and we loved it. The ambiance, service, attentiveness to my daughter’s peanut allergy…EVERYTHING was just perfect. Special thanks to Vincent and Mary and everyone who stopped by to wish my daughter a Happy Birthday. It was a truly memorable day and we can’t wait to visit again!

From the moment you step into La Grande Boucherie, you're transported to a world of Parisian elegance and timeless charm. Nestled in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, this stunning brasserie is more than just a restaurant—it’s an experience. The ambiance is nothing short of breathtaking. The grand arches, intricate ironwork, and warm lighting create a romantic and sophisticated atmosphere, reminiscent of a classic French bistro. Whether you’re seated in the opulent indoor dining area or under the glass canopy of the outdoor arcade, every corner feels like a scene from a Parisian dream. Now, let’s talk about the food—because La Grande Boucherie truly delivers on its culinary promise. We started with the Escargots de Bourgogne, swimming in a rich garlic-parsley butter, and the Steak Tartare, which was perfectly seasoned and served with crisp baguette slices. Each bite was a delight, showcasing the freshness and quality of the ingredients. For the main course, the Duck Confit was simply divine—tender, flavorful, and complemented by a side of crispy potatoes. The lamb chops were another standout, cooked to perfection. Paired with a bottle of Chamblix from their extensive wine list, the meal was nothing short of perfection. Dessert was an absolute must. The Crème Brûlée had the perfect balance of creamy vanilla custard and a crisp caramelized top, while the cheesecake was a masterpiece. Each dessert was an elegant finish to an already unforgettable meal. Beyond the food, the service was impeccable—attentive yet unobtrusive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm. Evan and Jamie made us feel welcomed and well cared for throughout the evening. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, enjoying a romantic date night, or simply indulging in a luxurious meal, La Grande Boucherie is an exceptional dining destination. With its stunning ambiance, exquisite cuisine, and top-tier service, it’s no surprise that this restaurant continues to impress.
