Perfect outdoor patio space. Big, fresh, modern and roomy inside. Large bar with seating. Super attentive staff and a very patient waitress who was also very good. (She even found a little water bowl for our furry friend.) Can't get over how delicious the brunch food was. I had steak & eggs and the steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection and it was only $14. My friends had the eggs in baskets for $12 (3 eggs, one in a half of potato, one in a round of homemade bread and one in half an avocado) and were nearly licking their plates. Portion sizes bordered on almost too much, but none of us wanted to let anything go to waste. Drinks were reasonably priced (iced coffee $2.50, bloodys & champagne brunch drinks were $6, patron margarita was $12.50). They even let us split the bill with credit cards. The manager was also telling us about a $9 weekday lunch and all-day happy hour. And yes, they have wifi. Great spot for a weekend brunch meet-up with friends!
This place is amazing. Cindy is an incredible waitress and the service is second to none because of her. The food is on point and the drinks are unforgettable. This has been one of the best brunches ever! Thanks for making it amazing. Go, and make sure you ask to sit in Cindy’s section!! ����
Had the pleasure of dining there for a birthday celebration last night and I must say food on point hospitality way up. I'll be back and I highly recommend them. James mgr. Hat's off to you. ����
The staff was amazing, our server was extremely knowledgeable. Love this place will Def visit again. I will be back for $6 drinks for brunch🥂🥂
Had the pleasure of attending an 80th birthday brunch. The food was amazing. Service was great. Will definitely recommend to others! 👍🏼
This place is amazing! The food, drinks, and staff! Been here 4 times in the last 2 months. #Im addicted. All I can add is that they need more seafood meals. I could only image how great it would taste. 👍🏾🙌🏾👏🏽
I celebrated my birthaday there and the food and service were excellent. Also they had life music!! That was a great final touch. Highly recommend.
No place is perfect..... but I must say they do try their best !!& haven't let me down yet! Thank you Blend!!!(Astoria)
The environment seemed pretty dope. Me and my party were able to be seated right away. The drinks were tasty, definitely had a good amount of alcohol. Didn’t have any entrees but the empanadas were good.
I came here on a Wednesday evening . The place was packed but it was at least a 5 minute wait to get seated . Drinks & Food were delicious. The decor at the location was amazing . Instagram MOMENT . I just wish the waiter and hostess were more attentive to their table .
Love this place! Been here a few times and it’s always a pleasure. Great food, drinks and music!
I’ve been here with dates, friends. Love the atmosphere, food & drinks!
The only thing is they brought us our Appetizers with our Main Course.
I understand if we requested it.
I know we arrived on the later side but the bun hair Latin busboy/runner was clearing plates that didn’t even seemed to look like they were done.. plus he was putting a stand offish demeanor. 🤷♂️
As soon as we were done I made sure to get my guys out as soon we had paid.
There is a way to go about it if you get a table at 9PM or if you have hard time you want people to leave etc.. tact hospitality.
Also wherever I or my people go we always make sure to tip the staff well.
Anyways love this place just maybe go for only lunch & early dinners
Had my first frozen Piña colada, and it was excellent. The chicken was overpriced. It just looks fancy, it's just white queso on a chicken breast fillet. The rice was good, and so were the beans.
We get crispy arepa cup, poke taco, latin blend salad, crispy calamari. All pretty good. Service is good. The music is on the loud side but there is a party there that day. A nice vibrant place.
I planned a last minute birthday dinner at Blend Astoria and I was so happy with the turnout! Paula was so accommodating since I planned it a week in advance for a Saturday night. The staff was even more accommodating on the night of because several of my guests were running late and they still sat us. They made pre-printed menus since I did a pre-fixe dinner. I loved how we were seated on the 2nd floor--it was more intimate with equally great service. The food was delicious and there was an in-house photographer who took photos of us. We had to pay for the photos but it was worth it.

Great food and service very great place very delicious food amazing music and amazingly peoples
Sangria by the pitcher great way to go, food is consistently delicious. Only suggestion I have is to order each course separately, even though they say they will tine it, everything comes out too fast and good gets cold.
Great Delicious Dishes, staff was very pleasant, The plates came out fast from the kitchen. The drinks were nicely mixed.
We Enjoyed ourselves here
This has got to be one of my new favorite restaurants. They’ve got a large food variety and they have some of the most delicious dishes I’ve ever tasted. I also love that they have vegan options. Drinks are good too! From two different visits, staff isn’t bad, but not great.
What an nice experience eating here. The decor is mortem and nice. Outside dining is also a nice addition for those who want to eat outside. They do have heaters in certain sections for outside dining. The staff very friendly and attentive. Frozen drinks are nice and tasty and well balanced. The food is presented very nicely and fresh outta the kitchen hot and tasty. Overall I highly recommend this place for food.
I used to go to the location in LIC all the time when I lived in the area. The food is really consistent and good at both locations. The salmon had great flavor and was a decent size. I loved the empanadas and kind of wished I’d gotten more of them although I found them to be pricey for empanadas, especially being in Queens. The decor is nice. The location is great. I felt like the service could’ve been a little better, especially having gone on a weeknight when it wasn’t super busy but overall had a good experience.
Food was amazing, although we had to wait a while to be seated, even with reservations .

Blend Astoria is one of my baby sisters favorite spots. She’s been bragging about them for a minute so when she had the opportunity to bring me, she jumped on it. It was a long day for me we had a prior event earlier in the evening (Diner en Blanc NYC). And she wanted the night to end with a nice cocktail. So, on our way from the city, we detoured here. We parked directly across from the relearnt (she mentioned that this is rare if you visit in the daytime parking is scarce so keep that in mind).
The restaurant itself is nice and cozy feeling. I really enjoyed the low lighting. It was perfect especially if your on a date night this would be perfect. I was impressed with the layout, they made great use of the space. The wall art was especially pleasing to the eye. Because we were seated at a table we ordered from the small plate menu and got one of the signature blend drinks. (I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it) It was a frozen margarita branded with frozen sangria. Mmmhhhh it was delicious. Our small plates consisted of the following.
CRISPY AREPAS CUP
Braised Short Rib, Avocado, Lime Scented Crème, Pico de Gallo, Cotija Cheese
POKE TACOS
Soy Marinated Ahi Tuna, Scallions, Sesame Seeds, Pico De Gallo, Avocado Crema
Everything was perfect. They even had a photographer on site taking complimentary pics of the guest. The restaurant offers seating in the main area along with the back and a bar area for just drinks. Outside they have two areas of outdoor seating. Both of which are well designed and spacious if you prefer to sit outside. All in all it was a pleasant experience. I see why she loves this spot and I’d revisit them.
