LIC Market - Long Island City

We celebrated a birthday here and had an incredible experience! Everything was exceptional! We sat on back outdoor patio area and it was lovely! Service was top notch and food was outstanding! Our new favorite neighborhood gem! Can’t wait to go back! Thank you!

Spectacular food, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented, as usual, and server Alice is THE best.

The recipes, freshness and execution wowed us. Perfect service too. And very large portions, which you often don't see with food of this quality. Will be regulars.

We had eaten at LIC Market several months ago, and returned because we had found it so good the first time. Alas, our experience this time was not as stellar. Firstly, the Happy Hour menu was downright confusing. Some items on the menu were on the regular menu at the same price. Really, we found the regular menu a bit confusing, too. They just need to be organized better. Secondly, I ordered a glass of the red wine, which I remember to be La Santouche. I did taste it, so it was my own fault in the end, but when the waitress poured the whole glass, I would swear the bottle had already turned vinegary. I did not protest, as I should have stopped the waitress before she poured, but it was a disappointment. We had the soft shell crabs, which were quite OK, but in all honesty, were the smallest of the softshell crabs I have eaten in the last couple months. And the side of brussel sprouts, which are frequently a vegetable favorite of ours, were not the tastiest we have had lately, either. You want honesty, so I give you honesty. We went quite a bit out of our way to return to LIC Market, but would not do so again.

Backyard terrace casual, rustic charming. Service very attentive and accommodating. Mushroom fava bean appetizer very tasty. Chunky fries crispy! Light and sweet blueberry coconut panna cotta.
