"CRAVE" Astoria, is really delicious! The food is outstanding.. It's a nice mix of "the best of Greek foods", and your American classics, with their own style dishes, CRAVE Bowls, and fabulous deserts. I have had the chicken sandwich and it is like none I've ever tasted. The sandwich comes with fries, feta, tzatziki, tomatoes and onions in it. Realllly delicious you must stop in. Oh and really cool music. I love Astoria.
