Scenic spot
Flushing Meadows Corona Park is an iconic 900-acre park in Queens, renowned for its association with the Mets baseball team and the Open Tennis Championship. It offers a diverse range of attractions, including the Queens Museum, New York Hall of Science, and Queens Zoo. The park's history as the host of the 1939 Worlds Fair adds to its allure.
Flushing Meadows Corona Park is not just a park. It is a living monument to New York’s ambition, resilience, and multicultural spirit. Spanning nearly 900 acres, it ranks as the fourth-largest public park in the city and carries the legacy of hosting two World’s Fairs. The transformation from ash dump to civic treasure is nothing short of miraculous.
The Unisphere stands proudly at the center, a gleaming symbol of global unity and a favorite backdrop for runners, tourists, and daydreamers alike. Speaking of runners, the park hosts some of the best races in the borough. Whether you are tackling a 5K around Meadow Lake or cruising through a half marathon that passes the Queens Museum and the New York State Pavilion, the routes are scenic, flat, and full of local energy.
The cultural offerings are just as impressive. The Queens Museum features rotating exhibitions that reflect the borough’s diversity and history. The Queens Zoo is compact and charming, perfect for families seeking a quieter wildlife experience. The New York Hall of Science invites curiosity with hands-on exhibits that appeal to both kids and adults.
Beyond the institutions, the park offers paddleboats, cricket pitches, soccer fields, and trails that feel like secret passages. You can kayak, picnic, play tennis, or simply sit beneath a tree and watch Queens unfold around you.
Flushing Meadows Corona Park is not just a place to visit. It is a place to belong. It captures the spirit of a borough that thrives on community, creativity, and quiet miracles.

Flushing Meadows Corona Park is one of the most vibrant and iconic parks in New York City. Located in Queens, it offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and recreation. Known for the famous Unisphere, a symbol of the 1964 World’s Fair, the park attracts visitors from around the world. It is a vast green space where families enjoy picnics, children play, and people relax by the lakes. The park is also home to top attractions like the Queens Museum, New York Hall of Science, and Citi Field, making it a cultural and entertainment hub. With sports fields, playgrounds, and walking trails, it’s a favorite spot for both locals and tourists. During summer, the park becomes especially lively with events and festivals. Whether you want a peaceful stroll, a fun family outing, or to explore Queens’ rich history, Flushing Meadows Corona Park is a must-visit destination.
Flushing Meadows–Corona Park is truly one of New York City’s greatest treasures. Every visit feels like a walk through history and beauty combined. The park is enormous — full of life, color, and iconic landmarks that make it unforgettable.
The Unisphere, with its majestic fountains, is a breathtaking centerpiece that symbolizes global unity and the legacy of the 1964 World’s Fair. Around it, you’ll find open fields perfect for family picnics, biking, or simply relaxing under the trees.
The Queens Zoo is a hidden gem inside the park — clean, well-maintained, and home to a wonderful variety of animals. It’s the perfect spot for families or anyone who enjoys spending time in nature. Nearby, the Queens Museum offers fascinating exhibitions and a panoramic model of New York City that never fails to impress.
Don’t miss the Observation Towers, a symbol of the park’s World’s Fair history — they stand tall as a reminder of innovation and imagination. And if you love photography, you’ll find endless views worth capturing — from cherry blossoms in the spring to peaceful lakes and even airplanes soaring overhead.
What an amazing place! Corona Meadows Stadium is a perfect mix of excitement, comfort, and community spirit. The field is well-maintained, the seating offers great visibility from every angle, and the atmosphere is always full of energy. The facilities are clean, the food options are varied, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Whether you’re here for a game or a live event, the experience is unforgettable. Definitely a must-visit spot in New York City!
I was there yesterday for Msking Strides-Queens.
Flushing Meadow is a fabulous free park.
It has soooo much to offer! There are tennis courts, soccer fields, volleyball nets, scenic tracks to walk.
The Queens Museum is on the grounds as is the Zoo, and the Playground for All Children. Citifield is close by- bathrooms, food & drink for purchase are available!
It was a great day to be in the park, out-of-doors!
I love this local park. It is very underrated. Easy access from LIRR and the 7 train. Visit this park and not only for the US open. For those of us that remember this place from the 90's it's so much better now.
I went to a 90's seafood BBQ in Flushing Meadows Park on 7/18/2025. I had a blast. The music was a flashback into time, I mean tunes I haven't heard in forever. Everyone mingled. It was a chill vibe. I'm glad I went.
This is a bustling, and incredible park in Queens. Nice lake to walk around, plenty of things to see like the Unisphere and the tennis center among others. Vendors everywhere with yummy food, plenty of people playing soccer, jogging, just enjoying life here. Highly recommend to spend quality time outside in NYC.

Museums
Situated within Flushing Meadows Corona Park, the Queens Museum is a must-visit destination offering an extensive collection of visual arts and The Panorama, a remarkable model of New York City. The museum showcases the rich history of Queens from its Native American roots to its current status as one of NYC's largest and most diverse boroughs through interactive displays and historical artifacts. It also features works by renowned artists who have called Queens home, such as Jackson Pollock and Alexander Calder.
We didn’t expect Queens Museum to be so interesting! While it’s not very large, the exhibits it has are truly impressive. The World’s Fair section and the display about Tiffany glass production were fascinating. But the highlight was definitely the Panorama of New York City—an incredibly detailed model of the entire city. Overall, we highly recommend visiting. It’s a unique and engaging experience!

A true surprise, this is a great trip back through time to the 1964-1965 world's fair. Well worth the visit, and it will completely change your view of the park after you see how it was arranged for the fair.
The panorama is amazing and not to be missed! It is the main draw, but be sure to check out some of the other exhibits on display, too. The gift shop has a very well-curated selection of books (especially children’s books) and stationery. The cafe is open and inviting with a long wall of windows overlooking the park.
Admission is free with IDNYC and for people with various other affiliations.
The Queens Museum, located in Flushing Meadows–Corona Park, is a center of culture, history, and art. It features diverse galleries such as the Pakistan Gallery and the Philippines Gallery, along with exhibits on New York’s water system. The museum is also home to the famous Tiffany Glass Gallery, showcasing exquisite handcrafted glass pieces decorated with floral and intricate designs, reflecting timeless craftsmanship. Its most iconic attraction is the Panorama of the City of New York, a breathtaking large-scale architectural model that represents the entire city with remarkable detail. In this panorama, every element—from rivers, bridges, temples, and massive buildings—has been recreated just as it exists in reality, offering visitors a unique way to explore the grandeur of New York in miniature form.
I'm so grateful we stopped here when visiting. This museum has the most amazing replica of Queens. This is the real reason to stop in. But please check out the rest of the museum. There are quite a few interesting exhibits. There was also a show and health fair happening at the time.
Very small quiet museum with suggested donation staff is quite friendly. Onsite parking. Two main exhibits are the World's Fair and the amazing NY Panorama I highly recommend this place. Only reason for 4 stars is that you need something else to do in the area because you can get through it in under two hours if you take your time. On a warm day, the park is a good idea. Otherwise look for some other options.
Reserve tickets in advance. This is not as popular as the big museums in the city, but it is a must. Check out the panorama from the world's fair. This is a not to miss spot.
This is a very small museum located in Flushing Meadow Park. It has parking. I got in for free on the NYPL Culture Pass. For me the only thing worth wild was the Tiffany Lamps and model maps. It took us about 30 minutes. Afterwards we walked the park.

Sporting Events
Arthur Ashe Stadium, nestled within the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing, Queens, is the epicenter of thrilling U.S. Open matches. For over twenty years, Daniel Zausner has been at the helm of this iconic venue as its chief operating officer. While it boasts a vibrant atmosphere with exciting gameplay and decent food options, some visitors have noted that noise levels during matches can detract from the experience.
Arthur Ashe Stadium is the best. It's the biggest tennis stadium in the world and it feels huge, but you can still see everything. The best part is the roof. You never have to worry about rain and can watch the whole match. The atmosphere is crazy, especially during night matches. If you're going to the US Open, you have to get a ticket for Arthur Ashe.
Adam C — Google review
Very conveniently accessible by the subway. The US Open is really well organized with a lot of freebies, experiences, lounge access & great food/drink options! All the stadiums are pretty close to each other. The Arthur Ashe is the biggest one and usually the best players play there! A great experience watching the beat tennis players in action
Such an amazing iconic stadium and complex ! I feel really privileged to have visited and experienced the Men’s last 16 at the US Open. Was very easy and cheap to access via both train and subway and easy to leave and return to back to grand central station. Such a great arena and viewing position for tennis and great supporting entertainment and refreshments. Can’t wait to visit again!
Fantastic atmosphere and world-class tennis experience!
Arthur Ashe Stadium is much more than just a tennis venue — it’s a full sports and entertainment complex. The atmosphere during the US Open is absolutely electric, with everything from top-level matches to live music and food areas that make the whole experience unforgettable.
Getting here is very convenient. If you’re using the subway, the station is just a short walk away. If you’re driving, there’s a large parking lot inside Citi Field Stadium, right across the street. Parking costs around $40, and it’s about a 10–15 minute walk from there to the main entrance of the complex.
The entire area is beautifully organized and very clean, with plenty of staff to help guide visitors. Whether you’re a tennis fan or just want to enjoy the energy of the US Open, Arthur Ashe Stadium is absolutely worth visiting — a true New York experience!
During the US Open, the grounds of the Ashe stadium gets crowded. The crowd was very polite. All of the patrons seemed to be happy and polite. I witnessed no improper behavior, and the security and police presence seemed to be relaxed.
Beautiful, massive tennis venue. I’ve been here for the US Open and had a great time. Despite its size, you can still see the court pretty well from anywhere in the stadium. I sat in the last row in the promenade section behind the server and could see easily the whole match without any difficulty or fatigue. Many of the seats are well shaded, even at midday, and the roof can close as needed.
I I came here not just for the incredible Swedish House Mafia concert, but also to witness the legendary excitement of the US Open the week before. Don't miss out on these unforgettable experiences! Join me in celebrating the best in music and sports!
Saw the 2025 US Open quarterfinals night sessions here (saw Djokovic, Osaka and Sinner win) and what an incredible experience. I’d recommend it to anyone even not tennis fans. It surely has its charm and would just be a great time to hang out. Also transportation was super easy and trains were working extra. Great organization from everyone!

Shopping mall
New World Mall is a bustling indoor complex located in Flushing, New York. As the last stop on the 7 train, Flushing is known as New York's real Chinatown and offers a plethora of regional eateries. The food court at New World Mall boasts 32 vendors specializing in various Asian dishes, from Sichuan hotpot to Cantonese dim sum.
Food court had a lot of delicious options and the taste was amazing. Asian food is by far one of my favorite food, and this place didn’t disappoint, from the spicy beef noodle, Ramen soup, pork dumpling, goat dumplings and the pork buns and for all an unbeatable price. Everything tasted with love !!! It didn’t disappoint with any of my orders, everything was a hit, it was my first time going and trust me I’ll be going again and again. I highly recommend.

Love this place. Whenever I am on a trip layover, I go straight to JMart to pick up grocery items to take back with me. Prices are reasonable.
They have over 100 retail stores and a food court that has something for everyone.
Must visit when you are in Flushing.
We went there thanks to the social media.
Honestly only one of the four vendors we got food from is like really good.
I don’t know if I am that wrong but I feel like it’s kind of overrated
Some food didn’t even taste fresh.
It’s an okay experience overall. The food and produce at JMart are very fresh, but it can get extremely hectic because there are always a lot of people. New World Mall is a big Asian shopping center in Flushing with a lot going on. The supermarket inside is huge and has a really good variety of Asian groceries, snacks, produce, and fresh items. Prices are decent, and even though the store stays busy, it’s usually organized enough to find what you need.
The mall itself has plenty of shops and one of the biggest food courts in Flushing, with tons of different options all in one place. It definitely gets crowded at certain times, but it’s convenient if you want variety. Parking in the area is tough, so it’s better to come earlier if you’re driving.
Overall, it’s a solid spot for Asian groceries and grabbing food afterward — just be ready for the crowds.
The J Mart was incredible. A great.place to kill time before a Mets game.
Pretty decent sized mall with many options to eat at the food court. There's consistent amount of foot traffic with a lot of tables inside to sit down although it gets filled up pretty quick. It's also really close to the train station which is great for anyone who's stopping by to check the area
The main attraction here is the food court which is filled with many different types of Chinese food and options.
This is a must visit place if you are in New York. Amazing authentic Chinese food from all corners of China.
I’ve been coming to this food hall for over 10 years at this point and this is by far one of the best places globally to get Chinese food. There are food stalls here owned by people from all over China so you get very authentic flavors from different parts of a massive country. It is very difficult to find a place like this in one localized area no matter where you are in the world. The competition keeps the food quality high and the prices low. Attached are images of every single stall currently in business here in February 2023. I will look to make updates to this post as places come and go as they frequently do. Some of the restaurants down here such as the Lanzhou hand pulled noodle shop have been here for over 10 years as well as the dry hot pot place.
Do yourself a favor and come here and order something you’ve never seen or heard of before and try it.

Under a 1-minute walk from New World Mall, here are a few close by recommendations for when you get hungry exploring around.
Jmart

Asian grocery store
Supermarket
JMart is a massive Asian grocery store located in the New World Shopping Center in Flushing, New York. Boasting 30,000 square feet of space, it's one of the largest Chinese markets in the area. The supermarket offers an extensive selection of products including meats, produce, sauces, condiments, sweets, instant meals, dry goods and more. Additionally, JMart features a full butcher shop and fresh seafood area where made-to-order cuts are available.
4.5 rounded up. If I could be so lucky to live closer to this Chinese supermarket! This place is well stocked with lots of different brands of each type of item. Large candy and snack section. Fresh seafood and meat. Reasonable priced veggies and fruit. Maybe the frozen section might be smaller than other stores this size. Did not notice any minimum for credit card purchases when I made a $15 purchase. Dec 2024

An amazingly huge store. The fish section was extremely large. They had fish I had only seen on t.v. It was a great place to walk around and spend and hour before the Mets game. I wish we had a J mart at home.
Casual tiny noodle place serving flavorful noodle soup n rice cake. We had soare rib noodle soup intestine rice cake noodle soup and stir-fry rice cake n seafood noodle.
I had an uncomfortable interaction with one of the security guards about 15 minutes before closing. I had just come back from the downstairs bathroom and was joining my friend who was already at checkout. When I tried to explain this, the guard spoke to me very dismissively, saying things like “Do you not understand what closing means?” even though I wasn’t re-entering the aisles or delaying closing.
I understand the need to enforce closing rules, but the tone he used was unnecessarily harsh. Customers deserve to be treated with basic human decency, even during closing time.
This is an amazing huge store. The seafood selection is very big, and it has all types of seafood like live fish, lobster, crabs and many others. The fruits and vegetables were fresh and that many people go to this store daily to buy the things that they want.
One of my favorite supermarkets to go to! It’s a huge supermarket and has everything. This is one of the only places that I know that regularly carries burdock root. They have a lot of specialty items ie duck feet most stores don’t have. Another item I like to get is sliced beef or sliced pork belly depending on what’s on sale. Another good thing is that you could really save on produce either in store or at any of the surrounding food stands located near the store. If you like to make Kalbi they have the Asian pears here all the time. There’s a whole aisle of herbal teas or sauces that might not be available at other stores. I typically pick up snacks here as well because they are not full of sugar or super sweet.
Some goods price are excellent, and once you purchased over💲50, you gonna earn 2hrs free parking, Cashiers in Jmart are nice👍🏻
Be aware of meat department. I bought about 5 pound of a Beef ShortRibs today, when I asked them to cut it for me, they said I have to paid first. After I paid and hand them the beef, they cut strip for me. When I got the beef strip back, I realized that is NOT the beef I paid for it. I bought a pack of lean beef, the I got back with half fat. I went back ask them. They said they can't control inside, but the is NO lean piece in the whole pack. I don't see the transition of lean to fat. I am 100% sure that is not the beef I paid for it! I spent over $220 in the store today. I guess they don't care losing a customer!

Chinese restaurant
Bodhi Village is a serene sit-down Cantonese eatery that offers an extensive dim sum menu featuring various vegetarian and kosher options. Visitors have praised the phenomenal service, warm smiles, and considerate staff. The restaurant's peaceful atmosphere and clean, organized space create a welcoming environment for families. Guests have enjoyed the delicious vegetarian Buddhist-Chinese cuisine, particularly the mock meats like BBQ pork and fried bread. The veggie sushi, including the volcano roll topped with mango, has also been highly recommended.
I loved this place. Delicious and healthy. Following principles of Buddhism, the food is not as strongly flavored or seasoned as other Chinese restaurants. Wish I had this near my home. Reminded me of the Temples that I ate at in Hong Kong.

First time at a vegan place. I was mildly surprised at the taste. I thought I would need a pizza afterwards. However the food texture was good and left me satisfied.
Limited but delicious menu. Their vegetarian dishes here are flavorful, acceptable portions and a little too much MSG for my liking. Very clean dinging room. Huge space with cafe in the front. Large kitchen. Service is wonderful and prompt. Their tea selections are of good quality.
Beautiful and clean decor. Service was lacking. We arrived before 5 pm on Sunday and the restaurant was not busy at all. We sat down and the waitress handed a device for us to order and walked away. While we were deciding on our selections, we flagged the waitress down for hot tea/water. From a distance, she just pointed to the device signaling us to order drinks from there. But the drinks were the expensive teas and coffee we didn't want. We just wanted plain water. We asked again when she came back to approve our order on the device.
We didn't like any of the variety of dishes we ordered. Maybe it's because everything had the same texture but just covered with different sauces. After chewing for a while, we all gave up and left at least half of the food. We paid our bills and left without packing any leftover.
No complimentary fruit or dessert offered at the end of our meal which was unexpected from an Asian restaurant.
The dinner was far from the vegeterian meals we've had in Hong Kong. The search for a decent Chinese vegetarian restaurant continues...
Hey foodies! If you’re on the hunt for a dining experience that’s both delectable and plant-based, you’ve got to check out Bodhi Village in Flushing. This largest vegetarian restaurant is an absolute gem, offering an extensive menu that’s sure to satisfy your taste buds.
🥟 Dim Sum Delights: Available only from 11 am to 3 pm, Bodhi Village’s dim sum is a must-try. Every bite is packed with authentic flavors that will make you forget it’s vegetarian. Perfect for a midday treat!
🍲 Flavor Explosion: From savory stir-fries to rich, comforting soups, each dish is crafted with care and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re a vegetarian or just love great food, Bodhi Village has something for everyone.
🍵 Tea Time: Don’t forget to pair your meal with their fragrant tea. It’s the perfect complement to their delicious dishes and adds a touch of elegance to your dining experience.
🏮 Spacious & Welcoming: With its large dining area, Bodhi Village is perfect for gatherings with friends and family. The service here is excellent, making you feel right at home.

Delicious food as always!! Service was pretty good as well! Nice & peaceful atmosphere!!
I can’t believe I haven’t left a review for this place. I’ve been coming here for years, our family’s favorite spot (we drive an hour to get there!).
The food is almost all vegan, but completely vegetarian and also garlic and onion free.
I’ve brought many non vegetarians and picky eaters and there’s something delicious for everyone.
Come in a larger group so you can try different things.
The space is HUGE and also has a huge cafe area if you want to have coffee and dessert.
There is an attached valet parking garage (temporarily closed) and also street parking.
Don’t sleep on this spot.
Delicious vegan food! You place your order with the tablet and can indicate no egg in dishes with that option. My boyfriend and I loved their other location in Boro Park in Brooklyn.
No step to enter. Gendered bathrooms but to enter bathroom area there is a door that would need assistance if person has accessibility issues.

Children's amusement center
Chuck E. Cheese is a family-friendly chain known for its arcade games, pizza parties, play zones, and adorable mouse mascot. The establishment is recognized for its amiable staff who go above and beyond to assist customers. Although there might be occasional issues with card payments, the employees are always eager to help resolve any problems. The food may take some time to arrive but it is well worth the wait as the wings are delectable and the cheesy bread is delightful.
Fun pass holder and we love visiting this location. I thought it would be extremely busy but it not so bad. We haven't had any bad experiences. They do a good job keeping clean and maintaining the machines. Thank you!

I personally liked it. It was clean and fun what kind off is a throw off is that they have more games for older kids but fewer games for younger kids but overall it was fun for the kiddos. The food was really good but it did take a long time to get. The food is also kind of pricey in my opinion, I also recommend the warm cookie! I would 10/10 go again as it’s a nice way to go with the kids.
Place gets jammed packed that even during the cold it’s extremely crowded and you can feel the hot air in the room. Weekends are super busy no tables and places to sit because they are all occupied. Ninja Run and Trampoline get so crowded with kids that they set limits to go in and kids have to make line to go in. They also stop selling Wristbands to do the extra events when it’s over capacity. I recommend coming early on weekends and anytime weekdays to avoid such issues. The Security lady needs some customer service skills. I took these pictures at 8:30pm when it’s was less cream but I have been here since 3pm.
We go so many times all year round and everything is always great, especially now that they have a new trampoline and ninja run, my son loves it and we are sure that our son is safe and has a lot of fun and so do we😁😁
Visit it for friends birthday) my kids was happy there ) even I played some games 😅
I recently booked my 3 year old's birthday party here and it was awesome! Booking online was super simple, the event was fun and organized, I didn't have to worry about decor or cake. I got to enjoy my child and our guest. The playground is new and the games are all updated and fun!
My child loves this place. Good for kids to have some fun while most of the places want children to behave like an adult. But they need to work on employee service as some employees are very rude & also makes me wait at counter always with a child while they are busy talking. I would give 5 stars otherwise for the place itself. Some Hispanic girls employee are also very rude including the lady manager. This girl was very rude with me couple times.
Absolutely TERRIBLE service. I ordered a simple small cheese pizza and waited for over an hour. Every time I went to the staff they'd give this terrible attitude and tell me two more minutes. It wasn't just me. There were others standing outside the window who hadn't recieved their orders. Some recieved the wrong orders and instead of admitting their mistake the staff would just brush it off. I would definetly give zero stars if I could. Do not order from here if you want an hour and a half wasted.

Arenas & Stadiums
Citi Field is a modern baseball park with a capacity of over 40,000, serving as the home for the Mets and occasionally hosting concerts. Opened in 2009, it was designed to evoke Brooklyn's Ebbets Field with its brick exterior and various fan-friendly features such as a batting cage and Wiffle-ball field.
Went with some friends and had a great time at Citi Field. The stadium is clean and easy to get to by subway. The vibe was fun and relaxed, even if you're not a huge baseball fan. Food options were solid, but the alcohol was definitely pricey. Still, a great spot to hang out and enjoy the game

As a Brit who’s never watched baseball before, my first game at Citi Field (Mets vs Padres) was incredible! The vibes were immaculate, the crowd was full of energy, and the whole experience felt so American in the best way.
We sat in Section 416, Row 1 — cheap seats but absolutely perfect. The view was amazing, even that high up. Honestly, I wouldn’t trade them for lower seats. If it’s your first time, definitely book the front row of a section — you’ll get a great view of everything.
Couldn’t have asked for a better intro to baseball… just a shame the Padres took the win!
LETS GO METS!
One of the best stadiums in baseball. Great selection of restaurants and plenty of accessible bathrooms. Vendors constantly making their rounds for orders at the seats. Just walking around and exploring the stadium is entertaining. If driving is a concern, the subway drops passengers off within a short walking distance. Truly a modern stadium that will never disappoint LETS GO METS!! 100% recommend!!
Citi Field is a solid stadium and really eye catching from the moment you walk in. The concessions move quickly and the staff is friendly which makes the whole experience smoother. As a Padres fan it was even better because we came away with a win. Overall it was an amazing experience and definitely worth visiting.
Took our son to his first ball game! Had a really great time at Citi Field ! Easy to get to from CT, SUPER family friendly, literally everyone was so nice to us. Our son loved watching everything and everyone as we walked around. He is also officially obsessed with Shake Shack. 10/10 day will definitely be back next season.👌🏼☺️
Of the two parks in New York, this is the better overall experience. It's well-designed, has good views everywhere, and feels like the fan is at the heart of the design of the stadium.The way it should be. A TOP FIVE ballpark to visit. Someone who's visited 28 out of 30 of the fields should know.
This was my first baseball game. I have to say it was pretty fun overall. Entrance was organized, staff and ushers were a little pushy and rude but that's expected. Food was kind of overpriced but it's not a surprise. The great American passtime. Go Mets!
First time experiencing a baseball game was here, the atmosphere was electric and I was completely engrossed in the level of showmanship applied to the whole event. The stadium was well laid out in my opinion with plenty of access to food and drink.

The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, located in Flushing, New York, is a must-visit destination for tennis enthusiasts. Established in 1881, this expansive facility serves as the backdrop for the renowned US Open held every late summer. It features iconic venues like Arthur Ashe Stadium—boasting nearly 24,000 seats—and Louis Armstrong Stadium.
Attending the US Open for the very first time was an unforgettable experience, and it absolutely deserves five stars! I was impressed by how well-organized everything was. The staff and volunteers were beyond helpful, making it so easy to navigate the grounds and find our way around. Everywhere we went, the customer service was excellent friendly faces, quick assistance, and a genuine sense of excitement that really added to the atmosphere.
One of the best parts of the US Open is how much access you have to different courts during Fan Week. It’s not just about Arthur Ashe Stadium there are so many other courts where you can get up close and personal with some of the best players in the world. Being able to walk around, watch matches at different levels, and experience both the intensity of the big showdowns and the intimacy of the smaller courts made the whole day feel full and dynamic.
And of course, I can’t forget the famous Honey Deuce cocktail! 🍸 I had heard so much about it before going, but tasting it for the first time was the cherry on top of an already amazing day. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and fun with the little frozen melon balls it’s the ultimate US Open signature drink. I get why everyone raves about it, because it really does add to the experience in such a unique way.
The energy throughout the grounds was electric fans from all over the world, cheering, laughing, and sharing the love of tennis together. It was more than just a sporting event; it was a celebration. Whether you’re a lifelong tennis fan or just someone looking for an incredible New York experience, the US Open delivers on every level.
I left already planning my next trip back, and now I understand why people make it a tradition year after year. Between the top notch customer service, the variety of courts and matches to enjoy, and that iconic Honey Deuce in hand, my first US Open was everything I hoped it would be and more. Five stars without hesitation! 🎾✨

First visit to the USTA in 30 years. Very disappointed in the overall US Open experience. The crowds were insane! It was better after we got into a stadium but outside the stadiums was a chaotic mass of people. Where are the signs letting visitors know where the courts are? In this era of high tech and AI, there should be huge (temporary) electronic displays showing match status in each court (like theme parks that have displays showing wait times for rides). The event staff were invisible! They should have special jackets or vests so they can be easily identified if visitors needed assistance. There were way too many visitors for event staff to manage if there were an emergency. We were lucky the day was not that hot, but it's still hot enough to potentially trigger heat issues or other medical emergencies. If there are medical or first aid facilities (tents?), we did not see and signs for them. Overall, there should be better signage and more maps to orient visitors.
We did see some great US Open tennis matches, but the venue was disappointing for what should be a world class event.
Incredible place. Arthur Ashe stadium is amazing, especially at night. Things were a bit expensive but reasonable. Had a great time during the US Open. Grandstand and Louis Armstrong stadiums are also nice, and the courts are smaller, so it is cool like a private game. Easy to get there by metro. Good food and drinks with nice atmosphere.
I had an amazing time at the US Open! The entire event was incredibly well-organized and interactive it wasn’t just about watching tennis; it was a full-on experience. From the excitement of the matches to the energy of the crowd everything was top-notch.
One of the things I appreciated most was how engaging and accessible everything felt. Whether it was the interactive fan zones the behind-the-scenes glimpses or the great food options, there was always something to do between matches.
Seeing world class athletes up close and feeling the intensity of live matches was unforgettable. The atmosphere was electric, and the crowd’s passion made it even more thrilling.
Overall the US Open is a must-visit for any sports fan. I’m already looking forward to going again!
Here for the US Open at Flyshong Meadows. Arthur ashe stadium!!!
Superb weather. Watched Coco Gauff win her match
Superb sight lines and great people watching
Amazing complex. Definitely recommend coming here at least once to see great tennis at a great venue!!!
Our tennis loving family had a great time at the US Open. A lot has been said, so I’m trying to add some other elements here. If you’ve done your homework tickets are pricey but it’s worth it. Parking is also tricky especially if the Mets are playing. If you’re in Manhattan take the subway. We drive in so we need a place to park. We booked a spot on Spot Hero. Try to get a close as you can because some of the surrounding area is dicey. Once you’re actually on the grounds the place is great. It’s clean, safe, and a good experience. The food is highway robbery, so just a heads up on that. I believe you can being food in. We brought insulated water bottles which need to go in empty. Plan on 3x what something would normally cost. For example, we bought two ice cream shakes and it was $25. Ironically the alcoholic drinks are not as outlandish comparatively, but I think that’s because some of the people there consume a whole lot of them. Also be prepared for a class society, where there are VIP lounges and other gated spaces you just can’t actually use. There is a lot of sponsor and vendor activity. For example, we bought lower tickets in Armstrong which were great. The food we had access to there which was awesome could only be accessed with a ticket. We went back for the night session and I had planned to eat at the same place because I’m Gluten Free and it worked. I wasn’t allowed to order from there because I was now in the cheap seats. This is an odd review for me honestly, because the tennis and grounds are great. It’s just ironic that this place is about advancing tennis in the US, while also being one of the most exclusive and pricey events around. I also think it would just be mayhem if the prices were lower. We really went for my 13 year old who loves playing tennis. We bought the $50 big tennis ball and he got a few great autographs.
Gorgeous tennis complex that you have got to attend at least once in your life. I try to make it to the US Open Fan Week annually. Even my friends that I brought this year turned into tennis fans. Just be aware all the food, drinks and merchandise are insanely overpriced. Other than that, it’s a lot of fun.
The US Open is always such a great time! Even though it was raining, everything was very well organized, and the experience wasn’t affected at all. There are so many food options to choose from, and the atmosphere makes it a really fun way to spend time with friends. Can’t wait to come back again!

The Shops at SkyView is a modern and hygienic retail center that boasts a mix of chain retailers, including a supermarket, midrange shops, and casual eateries. The mall features popular outlets such as Nike, Adidas, Converse, Marshalls and Target- all reasonably priced for bargain hunters. A few dining options are available on-site; however the choices are limited to Starbucks, juices, pretzels or Subway.
The Shops at Skyview is very well located, just two blocks from the subway line. The place has several popular stores with great prices (Target, Marshalls, Burlington, Best Buy, Starbucks). The only difficulty I had was finding Best Buy, but overall, the experience was excellent!

Time of Visit: 8:16 PM
After a long day of shopping and walking around the mall, I tried to use the bathroom before my 1-hour drive home. To my frustration, a security guard stopped me from entering—despite it being an obvious personal need and the mall still being open at the time.
This was not only uncomfortable but unacceptable. Basic access to restrooms, especially in a public shopping space, should not be denied without a clear and reasonable explanation. I left feeling disrespected and disappointed.
I hope management reviews their policies and staff behavior—customers deserve better treatment than this.
Great place to shop so many varieties. However, I did have a problem trying to find Best Buy. you have to go through the parking lot I kept riding up and down the escalator because I did not see how to get to it. but eventually, I figured it out. I was able to shop and get some great deals. It was crowded. security was present. I felt safe and can't wait to go back to do some more shopping when I'm in town.
I love this shopping mall. They are very convenient for me. They have almost everything in one place. some of the message chairs don’t work after taking money. Also some security guards need to be watching their behavior. Otherwise it’s very good for shopping .
No Wi-Fi, very difficult to get in touch with anyone, I think is very dangerous in case of an emergency, doesn't have a variety of restaurants, bathrooms don't have a regular maintenance & very little spots for waiting area with seats
Be ready to wait 30 minutes to use the bathroom on the weekends. Bathrooms are disgusting. Lines everywhere extremely long. It’s like a zoo here but without the cute animals.
I've been here quite a few times before and left a review. This is an updated one.
Always busy, and one store is just nasty. Clothes on the floors and way too stuffed on racks. This includes household goods, purses, and shoes. The whole store is a mess.
I am referring to Burlington. It is so cluttered that it does not allow you to shop. Purses upon purses. When one gets pulled out to look at, a few fall.
Jacket section and blouses, forget it, you can not squeeze through with another shopper.
Prices are still competitive, and items are great. I'm just unable to try on clothes.
Skyline Market has good produce and snacks at reasonable prices. Their food court inside the market was very reasonable. Paid a little over $7.00 for Rice and 3 items, Chinese plate.
Starbuck's busy, but 4 - 5 employees are working so well together. Very polite and friendly.
They have Target, Marshall's, Auntie Anne's pretzels, Restaurants, Old Navy, Sephora, and more.
If you just want to peruse and do something, this is the place for you.
BEWARE!!!!
For those who try these claw machines at Skyview, don't bother if you're aiming for a real Labubu. The box might look real, inside no! This one is fake and has no identification as the real one. Even the print on one of the feet is fake. Do not waste your money on this.

New York Food Court is a bustling hub of diverse culinary experiences, offering a wide array of sweet and savory regional Chinese specialties. This vibrant food court is a must-visit in Flushing, featuring an abundance of food stalls serving up delectable dishes. From the delicious dumplings at Chinese Korean Dumplings and Noodles to the spicy Chongqing-style noodle soups at Chong Qing Xiao Mian, there's something for every palate.
I really love the New York food court, with all of the stalls serving different type of Asian dishes. I am partial to the hand, pulled noodles. Each stall has very friendly and knowledgeable staff who really try and help me since I only speak English.
Rob K — Google review
The food court is great for a quick bite to eat. Loads of variety, so if you go with a crew you can all get different things. Some stores are better than others and the tables are typically dirty. No one offers water. But overall it's a great place.
Lanzhou hand pulled noodles #22
Excellent noodles in clear, flavorful broth with oxtails and vegetables. Oxtails were very tender. Throw in a strawberry iced tea from happy lemon And I’m a happy guy.
Next time I’m going back for the lamb burger.
I guess I had high expectation after seeing many social media posts.
Maybe I’m not a fan of real authentic Chinese food? Every stall had very unique and authentic food.. but it wasn’t for me.
Crab noodle was ok, not great. Tasted too crabby and not fresh. Pork buns were made fresh but the inside was smelly and it was not hot.
Self cleaning statin was dirty and bathroom was dirty.. if you are looking for better atmosphere, this is not a place for you.
Good food court, clean, lots of options, affordable prices.
This spot delivers on promises! Hidden eatery delivering consistent excellence. The employees made us feel welcome right away. We received everything promptly. New York Food Court will become part of our regular rotation.
Another fab place in Flushing China Town where a plethora of lovely, inexpensive food kiosks are awaiting your arrival. A must try.
Lots of authentic Asian food stalls to try. This is one of the few places you can get real stinky tofu. A specialty! Tastes just like what you get from Taiwan. The hand pulled noodles were ok too. Prices were awesome too! Very reasonable. Bring cash!

For day 3, if you don’t mind the extra trek, today covers more off the beaten path places like New York Hall of Science. Not quite as popular as Queens Museum, but still highly rated among many travelers. Accounting for getting around and average time spent, today’s activities could take about 8 hours.

Children's museum
The New York Hall of Science, located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, is a former 1964 World's Fair pavilion transformed into an interactive science and technology museum. With over 450 hands-on exhibits covering physics, chemistry, biology, math, and more, it offers an engaging experience for curious minds of all ages. Visitors can explore the human body, build robots, learn about mirrors and prisms, program rovers to explore terrain or participate in wheelchair races with different wheel set-ups.
A Must Visit for Curious Minds of All Ages 🧪✨
What an awesome experience! The New York Hall of Science is like stepping into a giant playground for the brain, colorful, interactive, and full of surprises around every corner.
From the moment we walked in, there was an electric sense of curiosity in the air. Whether you're five or fifty, there's something here to spark your imagination. We got hands on with everything from building rockets and solving puzzles to exploring how light, sound, and motion work in the real world. The exhibits are designed to make you think and smile.
One of our favorite parts was the Design Lab, where we got to tinker, build, and test our own creations. The staff were super friendly and always ready to help or explain the science behind what we were doing. And don’t even get me started on the giant connected playground outside which was a total hit with the kids (and yes, the grown ups too).
It’s a perfect blend of learning and fun, with just enough challenge to keep everyone engaged without feeling overwhelmed. Whether you're a teacher, a parent, or just a curious explorer, this place is a gem.
Highly recommend spending a full day here. You’ll leave feeling inspired, maybe a little tired, and definitely smarter than when you arrived.

I visited thie science center twice and both times I was disappointed. The only redeeming exhibit is the new City works. It's really cool and I've never seen anything like it. Realistically, it's not worth visiting just for one exhibit. The Liberty science center in New Jersey is significantly better and I would easily recommend it over this one. My final gripe is with the extra $6 to visit the outdoor kids playground. Why not include it in the ticket price? It's just a playground.
I really enjoyed it. We took our summer camp here. They are very organized. You do have to plan and book everything so your group can enjoy each experience. But overall great interactive experience
Went during community hours which consisted of reserving Friday morning for after 2pm. I have not been here in a long long time since elementary school, and let me tell you the renovations look great. My toddler had an amazing time with all the interactive section within the hall. From the bubble room to the big interactive screen where you’re able to play with the trees and animals. Had a blast and lots of fun, highly recommend for kids of a younger age.
It was a great time for the kids. Bubble station is a great place cause kids love bubbles. There are a good amount of different types of bubble stations to play Went on a Friday with the free admission so figured would be a lot of kids. The ball table where you put them into the tubes was maybe worst experience cause 3 kids at the top were hogging the table keeping the balls from reaching the other children. But it’s a great place for kids to learn and have fun.
I visited the New York Hall of Science with my daughter and wife, and we had a great time. The hands-on exhibits kept her engaged, especially the bubble area and the Science Playground. There’s a lot of space to move around, and the interactive displays make science feel fun and accessible.
As an adult, I appreciated the design of some of the older exhibits like Mathematica—it’s a little dated, but nostalgic in a good way. The whole place feels geared more toward kids, maybe up to age 10 or so, but it's still worth a visit if you're curious and enjoy interactive learning.
It’s not a huge museum, but we spent about 2–3 hours there and felt like we saw most of it without rushing. Overall, it’s a fun, educational spot, especially if you have kids in tow.
I had fun on this tour through the history of science. This place which oddly sits near the heart of Corona a literal trap for Hispanic crowd fests and parties from the locals boasts a pretty good record when it comes to educating the young minds of tomorrow. Plenty of art exhibits and interactive displays for kids in order to ensure everyone is staying captivated and learning which is the priority of this place. Fridays they have free admission until 5 pm so I suggest you go before then and for college students is pretty much pay what you want. They do have a nice gift shop at the end of the tour filled with trinkets, merchandise and cool sci fi toys gizmos and gadgets alike which I recommend checking out before leaving. The tours are also pretty cool as they explain the in depth history behind theories, relative nuisances, modern technology that exists to help humanity etc. I love this place despite being 21 and honestly if you have a kid I would recommend checking this place out.
We used the Cool Culture Pass to visit. There were tons of things to do with the kids and they loved each area. The CityWorks section was very interactive. We visited the gift shop after. It definitely was a productive day for all of us.

Market
Queens Night Market is a vibrant seasonal outdoor market in Queens, New York, offering an array of experiences for visitors. With over 100 independent vendors selling food, crafts, and merchandise, the market celebrates the rich cultural diversity and heritage of NYC and Queens. From Indian tandoori kebabs to Puerto Rican papas rellenos, the market offers a wide variety of ethnic foods at affordable prices with a $5-$6 price cap on food orders.
The Queens Night Market is such a wonderful way to spend time with friends and family outdoors in the summer. I especially enjoyed the craft shops. Shout out to the bands that played that evening, it was really cute in the earlier part of the evening when kids were dancing along to the band. I’d recommend bringing a picnic blanket to sit on in the field rather than trying to jockey for a table.
Larry D — Google review
Great variety of foods to sample. Clear pricing. Family friendly. Crowded enough to move food but not too crowded that it’s squished. We loved the Venezuelan corn cakes. I recommend going with a friend to share.
Enjoyed it here. The food was small bites and all under $6. They accept cash and card. It's a great way to learn the food of different cultures. There are also other vendors with candles and portraits. You can listen to a live band. Bring a blanket to sit in the grass if the seating area is filled.
Cool food experience with music. It would’ve been nicer if they had more seating. Honestly we probably would’ve stayed longer and bought a lot more food if there was more seating. The food was good for a decent price. Glad I experienced it, but not sure that it’s worth a return trip.
I've been attending the QNM for many years now (since they first started) - what I'm most fond of is the mixed crowd (hello, it's Queens where it's like a mini world of its own- yet you have "outsiders" attending). The difference foods, the vibe, music- just the atmosphere overall. I wouldn't recommend the first day (they open for their season- a bit dry ...as in not that much crowd or food vendors).
Overall it is awesome.
So make sure you attend next year an many more💃🏽💃🏽👍🏽
Had an amazing time trying different foods from different countries and cultures. Everything was priced at $5-$6. Enough to taste for two people without getting full and leaving room to taste other vendors. Lines move pretty quickly. Crowd died down around 8-9pm so lines were not as long. The music was nice.
Always a great place to try various ethnic food all in one spot. Just a few stop from willets point, and a 15min walk from the train, usually go after a mets game, instead of spending $30-40ea at the game you can come here and fill up for $30 for two people. They also have beer and wine stations. Portable bathrooms which are surprisingly very clean. The food here is very fresh and usually cooked to order to expect long lines. Majority of vendors take card but bring cash if you want beer/wine. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area
”Queens Night Market” is a food event in Queens where the largest immigrant area in New York City, showcasing the food cultures of South America, Asia, Europe, and the Caribbean etc.
You can enjoy high-quality international cuisine that goes beyond street food under $6.
As a Queens resident, I am happy and proud of this wonderful event.

Asian Jewels is a bustling venue in Queens that offers a standard selection of dim sum in a large, traditionally decorated space. It's known for serving some of the best dim sum in the city, attracting lively groups of families and friends. The cavernous dining rooms with red-and-gold decor and chandeliers can accommodate large gatherings.
First time dining here tonight after reading their reviews. We order chicken meehoon and soft tofu with veggies. Both dishes tasted great and not too salty. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Wendy T — Google review
I had a fun time here with 6 of my pals. Unfortunately we came at 3:33pm, unaware that the carts ended at 3:30. The sign said the dimsun ended at 4:00 not 3:30. We were still able to get dim-sun but just had to order them specifically and wait longer. The dim-sun was pretty tasty, although I would have liked the pork buns more if they had more meat inside. The soup dumplings also didn’t have much soup insight which was a bit disappointing. The tripe was great though. We had a great time but I recommend coming before 3:30pm for the best experience.
Good Chinese food in Flushing! They have a large space with lots of tables for big parties. They also have several private rooms available. The food is pretty standard compared to other restaurants in the area. One thing I didn’t like was that a lot of their sauces tasted similar with a hint of tomato like for the Peking Duck and the Pork Chops. Price was a bit expensive. Service was good. Parking lot with valet in the back, but gets hectic at the end.
Nice authentic dim sum experience. There are a lot of options on push carts. Although , a lot of dishes include shrimp which my husband is allergic to so more limited for us. Favorites include the chicken feet, meat and taro wrapped in tofu skin, and coconut pudding. We got there early when they opened around 9 on the weekend, however the kitchen doesn’t open until 10:30 so many things on the dim sum special list weren’t available.
So much good dim sum that gets pushed around on carts. Cart ladies can get a bit aggressive but you’ll never lack food options. Service is overall a bit inconsistent and all over the place but you’ll adapt. Egg tarts here were very good.
We loved the ham sui gok (crispy dumpling), pineapple BBQ pork buns, and the surprisingly good durian mochi! Some items were less exciting though—the tofu pudding lacked flavor, and the congee with century egg and pork was a bit underwhelming. But overall, the experience was great, with friendly service.
Decent place to get dim sum. My favorite is the steamed shrimp ball with bits of water chestnut for the light crunch cooked in egg white sauce. Do go early to avoid crowds on weekends.
I came here with a couple of friends for an early dinner on a random saturday. We were seated immediately despite the restaurant being quote busy. Before we even sat down, the servers were already offering us plates—so be prepared to start eating right away!
The food itself was delicious and very unique for the american palate. My friends and I particularly liked the siu mai and cheong fun. However the experience can feel overwhelming if you’re not familiar with dim sum.The dishes come around quickly, and it was sometimes hard to understand what the staff were saying due to both the noise level and a language barrier. Some of the items are pictured in the menu, and at the front of the restaurant there’s a complete list of items in both English and Chinese, which is really helpful.
The dim sum servers were friendly and never too pushy, which I appreciated. The only downside was trying to flag down a regular waiter for some water. When we finally did get someones attention he was a bit rude and told us to wait though no one brought us water until we asked a different waiter 15 minutes later.
Overall, the food makes this place worth visiting. It’s delicious and authentic. Be ready for a fast-paced, lively atmosphere, and maybe brush up on dim sum basics beforehand to make the experience smoother.

Chinese noodle restaurant
Lanzhou Handmade Noodle is a popular Chinese food outlet located in a bustling food court. The chefs here skillfully prepare freshly made noodles and flavorful soups right before the diners' eyes, using traditional techniques like rolling and pulling the dough. The vegetarian-friendly dish features house-made noodles that are cooked to order, with options for hand-pulled or knife-cut varieties. Customers praise the incredible chew of the noodles, tender beef shank, and flavorful yet simple broth.
The noodles are house made and cooked to order. Noodles are hand pulled and you can watch the workers make the noodles fresh! The knife cut noodles are my favorite but the hand pulled noodles is just as good. Noodles have incredible chew and the beef shank is nice and tender and the broth is flavorful yet simple. Their pickled vegetables on the side is amazing and their chili crisp is not spicy but fragrant. Portions are good but price has gone slightly up. My favorite noodle shop in Flushing

i ordered the beef one ($10) to go. i received it with the noodles and broth separately and tied good in the bag so it was good until i got home! microwaved the broth 45secs. came with chili oil and chopsticks
Got the hand pulled stir fried noodles house special. Not bad! I would try it in soup next time. Noodles are hand pulled and bouncy. Flavour is good. You can taste the wok hei! It was 14.50
A small restaurant with pleasant food and considerable price.
The ramens and rice are all served in one use container as the spoons and chopsticks are also one use.
One dish typically cost 10 dollar, and they all tastes nice, with much meat in it.
The only problem is that all soup for all dishes tastes exactly the same.
I haven't been to Flushing for a very long time, and didn't know what to eat. I went inside the New World Mall at Flushing to see what food they have at the food court. We came across this place called "Lanzhou Handmade Noodle" who make flavorful noodles and rich broth. We got the roast duck & ribs. It's so good! This place accepts CASH only. Definitely come check it out 😋. I'll come back again.
Life is Short, F….it up! Family, Friends, Flavor
If you’re ever in Flushing, go to the new world mall, go downstairs and you will find this place. Although it is a food court, it’s a food court of all different types of Asian cuisine. They were pulling the noodles right in front of you and cooking each bowl With fresh noodles. I got the lamb hand pulled noodles for the soup. You know you’re getting something special when you first put into the needle and you feel that texture and the chewing us with the other does able to absorb the flavor of the soup with every bite.
The first thing I do after a long day of travel is to find a good bowl of noodles. Every time when I am in New York, I always stop by here to get their beef noodle soup. The noodles are so delicious. The flavors and texture has not changed a bit. I've been coming here for more than 6 years. The chili oil and the pickled vegetable are phenomenal and all you can eat.
Place was really busy. Service was friendly. This place did take card. A lot of other of the other places were cash only.
Had the hand pulled noodle with wontons. Large portion of noodle (good flavor), broth flavor was good. Pork wontons were good. Also had the bbq lamb skewers (light cumin flavor) - very good.
Plenty of clean tables available, including large group tables

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
Located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, the Queens Zoo is home to over 75 species native to the Americas. Visitors can start their journey by interacting with domesticated animals like sheep and alpacas before exploring the Wild Side exhibit, which houses Andean bears, American bison, and the world's smallest deer. The Waterfowl Marsh features trumpeter swans while a vibrant aviary showcases colorful parrots and macaws.
Absolutely wonderful especially if you have smaller children, magical magical place with magical vibes, and great people in the area to be honest the fact that it has a parking just get there early! I had an amazing day and I felt like I went alone with my son and it was very safe. Highly recommend this along with prospect Park zoo for Young children. There is also a theme park right before you walk in so there is so much to do and it’s a family fun filled day. It’s a little treasure in Queens. I had no idea about and I’m so glad I found out at last. Great animals as well. I was amazed that this was all in my backyard apparently!!! Never saw an alligator other than maybe the Bronx zoo… in New York City.

The Queens Zoo offered us such a lovely experience! We pet the goats and saw the bear, sea lions, eagle, among others. What stands out is the cleanliness of the zoo and how well-cared the animals are. We had fun and did bird watching at the aviary. This zoo might be small but we saw it in about tree hours and enjoyed it a lot!
I recently took my daughter 2.5 yrs old daughter to the Queens Zoo, and we had such a great time! She especially loved the children’s farm area—she was so excited to see the animals up close. This zoo is perfect for kids and toddlers; it’s not too big, which makes it easy to walk around, and there are plenty of fun things for little ones to enjoy.
The whole place is very clean and well-organized, which I really appreciated as a parent. It felt safe, calm, and family-friendly the entire time we were there. The staff were also super friendly and helpful, and you can tell they care about both the animals and the guests.
One thing to keep in mind is that the food options inside are limited and a bit pricey, so it might be a good idea to eat before you go or bring snacks for the kids.
Overall, the Queens Zoo is such a wonderful place for a family outing. It’s small enough not to feel overwhelming but still has plenty to see and do. We had a memorable day, and I’d definitely recommend it to other families, especially those with young kids!
We recently visited Queens Zoo and had a truly wonderful experience. It’s not too big, which makes it perfect for walking around without feeling overwhelmed. The zoo is clean, calm, and filled with beautiful trees and shaded paths — ideal for a relaxing day.
It’s a great place for both kids and adults. We’ll definitely come back again.
This zoo is a small zoo byt perfect for an afternoon with kids. The animals are beautiful and well cared for. We always enjoy the sea lion feeding time. The actual zoo can be seen in under 2 hours but we always enjoy visiting and feeding the farm animals on our way out. This is always a highlight for the little ones. My favorites are the alpacas.
Worth every penny and every second!
Despite growing up in Flushing, I don’t remember if I visited this location as a kid. So I decided to change that with my family. I homeschool my children so I was able to take advantage of the fact that very few people were present. As a result, we had a blast, one only capable when you reserve a park to yourself. We took our time and savored every moment and I’m glad we did. Despite the relatively small size of this zoo, I strongly recommend you and your family/friends go and have a relaxed time.
Took my two kids to the Queens Zoo a few days ago. We really like the Queens zoo because it’s on the smaller side (vs. the Bronx’s zoo) and mostly shaded, which made it really comfortable to walk around on a hot Summer day. The kids loved seeing all the animals, and we were lucky to catch the sea lion feeding just as we arrived. We didn’t get to see the coyotes who were probably hiding in the shaded areas, but we saw everything else. After the zoo, we walked across the road to the farm area and spent some extra time feeding the animals there, a perfect way to end the visit. Definitely recommend for a nice family outing.
I had asked around if anyone knew about this zoo, and most people said no. Honestly, I didn’t know about it either, but I’m glad we went. it’s a really laid-back zoo. If you’re looking for something simple and not too overwhelming, this is the place. They don’t have a huge variety of animals, but it’s still enjoyable and gets the job done.
The best part is that the kids can go on little rides and even feed the animals;all included in one price. They also offer a military discount, for anyone wondering. Outside, there are some vendors selling food and snacks. Inside, though, I was a little shocked; they charged me $5 for a can of water 😒😒😒.
Other than that, we had a great time! There’s even a slide, which was a nice surprise. Overall, I was really impressed and left happy. Picture attached.

Dim sum restaurant
Cantonese restaurant
Chinese restaurant
New Lake Pavilion is a popular Chinese eatery in Flushing Chinatown, offering traditional dim sum dishes in a comfortable setting. The restaurant features a large dining hall with round tables and bustling pushcarts, creating an authentic Cantonese experience. Located conveniently near the highway, it's a great spot to introduce kids to dim sum. While known for its dim sum, some patrons believe that the dinner options are even better, especially seafood dishes and tender lamb chops.
I absolutely loved everything about this restaurant from the moment I took my first bite, I knew I had discovered something special. Every dumpling is bursting with flavor—juicy on the inside, perfectly cooked on the outside, and paired with just the right amount of seasoning and dipping sauce.
The taste of the food is fantastic—you can tell that every ingredient is fresh and carefully chosen. The shrimp ones are tender and slightly sweet, and full of flavor and not at all boring like in some other places. Every dish I tried made me want more.
If you’re looking for food that warms your heart and satisfies your cravings, this is the place. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves bold, delicious, comforting Chinese flavors.
Emmy V — Google review
Great food and most excellent service. We do not speak Chinese but this does not affect the level of service we get. Very friendly wait staff and management. Food is fresh, well made, and delicious. We love to eat here!
This is olde school dim sum which is reminiscent of what we eat decades ago, the space looks like a time warp and feels a little dated, the staff, uniforms and decor are from another era.
The good to dishes lack flavor and need more salt and sauces.
Portions are generous, but need a little more care and attention.
The best dim sum in Flushing, Queens!
I’ve been here many times, and the food is consistently delicious every single visit. Everyone I bring falls in love with it too. We always order a lot, and somehow, we finish everything—it’s just that good.
The must-try dish here is the rice noodle rolls with crispy shrimp. The texture and flavor are absolutely perfect—the crispiness of the wrapper, the rich sauce—it’s something I’ve never found at any other dim sum place. Highly recommended!
Other standouts include the siu mai, har gow, and especially the deep-fried pineapple and BBQ pork bun. The bun is thin and crispy on the outside, while the filling is perfectly sweet, fragrant, and juicy. It’s a must-order!
The restaurant is only open in the mornings, and I recommend coming around 10 AM. If you arrive earlier, some items may not be ready yet.
Overall, this place is a gem. I always come with my family, and it never disappoints. 🫶🏻
Very traditional and good dim-sum. The service is good but there was this new guy who totally messed up our drink order. But the others helped to correct it right away. There were 10 of us and finished with around $250 all included
This is an authentic Cantonese resturant. It very much reminded me of being in Hong Kong. The food and decor are very similar to resturants that I have seen in HK. The food is not spicy so dont look for Scezhuan style preparations. I recommend the fried pork and the chicken.
Our No. 1 dim sum in NYC! We could come all the way to Flushing just for this. None of the dishes we pick from the carts (how fun is that) has ever disappointed us. Have made multiple trips coming to this place, and still can’t wait for our next visit!
I’ve been here so many times. I don’t know what is called the rice noodle rolls one, but it’s very DELICIOUS!!! I ordered it 3 times. The custard buns are very good.

Ice skating rink
Indoor swimming pool
The Flushing Meadows Corona Park Aquatic Center is a publicly accessible recreational facility that offers both swimming and ice-skating activities. The establishment boasts an indoor Olympic-sized pool along with a rink for skating enthusiasts. It provides ample space for individuals seeking to engage in healthy physical exercise and leisure activities. This aquatic center serves as an excellent venue for families, sports teams, and other groups looking to participate in water sports or ice-skating events.
As a public pool, you cannot ask more. Enough lanes, great water quality and the classes are helpful too. People are friendly. The only problem is the locker room. Kind of small and old. However considering the price you cannot ask more. Overall 5 stars.
Chongli S — Google review
This is one of the public indoor swimming pools where entry is free if you’re under 24. If you’re over 24, the yearly fee is $150, which is still cheaper than most other places. It’s a great spot for kids, and many families come here. There are locker rooms and changing rooms for both men and women. For safety, two lifeguards are always on duty, and there’s also a seating area where mothers can comfortably watch their children
I’m an able bodied human using this pool for exercise. PLEASE make it as accessible as you market yourself. Elevator has been out for a week, no cleaning and unsafe for majority of swimmers. Fix it!
There is no potable water here. I've been coming since last summer with my children to use the pool and ALL the water fountains' filters' status are "red" - meaning they need to be replaced! since a year ago!! Is this racism? Because all other NYC Park and recreation centers throughout the other boroughgs don't have this issue. Flushing Meadows Corona Center serves predominantly the Hispanic and Asian communities.
The registration for the children’s swim class is consistently delayed, making it impossible for parents to plan their schedules in advance. Communication from the center is also very poor and confusing — I often have to reach out myself just to get basic information. To make matters worse, there is a staff member who answers the phone with a consistently unpleasant attitude. Instead of providing the information that should have been communicated ahead of time, she tends to argue with parents. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has experienced this issue.
The white lifeguard with the bald head was harassing me and my girlfriend. I will be contacting nyc rec center and my cousin works for the New York Times so we will be documenting everything and will be telling the press. If the harassment continues we will file a lawsuit and other grievances with his employer
There are workers there, and they're not doing anything. What kind of place is this? Ducks and turtles are on that corner. Sunlight is essential for turtles, and they can't sunbathe properly in that filth. A lot of garbage.
The pool was clean and nice. The bathroom was not so bad.
The lockers were mostly broken and dirty.
The service was terrible, especially downstairs. He starting to laugh at us but then he acted like he knew everything. Blamed us and said that we were being disrespectful but he’s the one who started it. Please don’t act like you’re the only person who is right.

Additionally, there is a renowned French bistro that piqued interest but was not personally experienced.
Great spot for shopping and dining. I highly recommend it for its convenient parking, diverse restaurants, excellent patisserie, delicious ice cream, and well-stocked grocery stores. A perfect place to shop and eat in one stop

I love that they have a liquor store, a pharmacy, a supermarket, a bank, a doctor, a dentist, a bodega, a nail spot and a petco all in one spot. You can easily find parking there and take care of multiple errands in one place.
Great parking lot with a variety of stores to shop at. A great selection of restaurants to dine or take home.
Love coming to this mall area! Petco and Carvel located in here ♥️ im always in these 2 places.
Great shopping area with plenty of parking. Including other shops, a good supermarket, a pharmacy, a pet supplies store as well as couple of great restaurants.
Not the best shopping/strip mall that I've been to. None of the businesses stand our to me. It's like the businesses that are here are for the neighborhood. There's a SUBWAY that shares a building with a stationary store/Bodega of some sort. FYI, the food in the SUBWAY wasn't good. It was flavorless. Not even up to SUBWAY standards. There's a smattering of other stores like a Chinese food place and a pizzeria. There's a liquor store and a bank that are next to each other, I imagine, so that when you get paid 9n Friday you can go to the 🏧 and then your bottle of booze. There's a Food Universe supermarket here as well that's not bad. Although I would suggest bringing a sweater or something cause it's cold 🥶in there. Overall I would say that this shopping center is underwhelming.
Really good little shopping in almost middle of no where so not really that busy at all, good spots to eat, old school Bodega type joint in this shopping center, and best Post office in the area are some of the things to expect here, plus always free parking available here. Love the place when ever need it.
You know I only went to the french 🥪 bistro so I can't speak to the pizza parlor- looked good though. The parking lot was definitely really big. It was well kept up. Mall itself is a strip mall, but a nice one

川霸王 Szechuan House is a must-visit in Flushing, known as the oldest continuously run Sichuan restaurant in the area.

Non-spicy options such as dry sauteed string beans and minced pork noodles are also available.
What a great meal. It came out super fast, big quantities and delicious. Spicy too which is nice for a cold day. We had the cumin lamb, cumin tofu, string beans and lo mein noodles. They were all fantastic and will definitely come here again.
Nakul N — Google review
The food here is genuinely delicious! At least most of the dishes are. I’m a big fan of their braised sliced pork in salted cabbage, which I’ve ordered many times. The pork belly is steamed until it’s tender and soft, and paired with the preserved vegetables, the flavor really reaches another level.
Another standout is the sauteed pig kidney. My boyfriend usually doesn’t like organ meats at all, but even he thought this dish was really well done. I completely agree. There’s no unpleasant odor, just rich, savory meatiness and a bold, spicy flavor. These two dishes alone are enough to keep me coming back. Ofc, not everything on the menu is great. I didn’t enjoy the seasoning of the steamed pork slices with glutinous rice. But overall, I still highly recommend giving this place a try. You’ll almost certainly find at least one dish you really like.
I'm not usually a fan of sweet and sour chicken because it's often an Americanized Chinese food.
However, I was pleasantly surprised after tasting the sweet and sour chicken my 10 year old son ordered here. It was absolutely delicious! The entire family loved it so much that we practically licked the plate clean to savory the last drop of the sauce :)
The restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night, which initially made me hesitant about the quality. But I quickly noticed they had a steady stream of to-go orders while we dined in—a good sign!
Give this place a try. They've been thriving in this competitive location for years, and now I can see why!
I recently came here for the second time, and I was disappointed with the experience. The fish with tofu was good but a bit too salty for my taste. The shredded potatoes were average; they weren't as thinly cut as expected, but the flavor was decent. The scallion pancakes were awful—far too oily and salty. My first visit was enjoyable, but this time the food was mediocre at best. The service is nice though, so I will probably give it another chance in the future.
Great Szechuan food in flushing. Finally tried this place after coming to flushing for years. Should have tried it sooner. This is a small family run place with amazing food at great prices. There are tons of new Szechuan style restaurants in Flushing that charge exorbitant prices lackluster food. I will be going here from now on.
Docked the service two stars because the waitress was not helpful at all. We tried to ask (in Mandarin by the way not in English) what their specialties are and she pointed to an entire page. Not helpful. When asked again she pointed without saying a word to the single most expensive thing on the menu.
Bottom line this is a Chinese restaurant, expect the service to go along with that.
Wonderfully authentic dishes, not afraid to bring the heat. Reasonable price for flushing, the dishes were brought out quickly hot out the kitchen. It's a small front that many might miss, but do stop by for a mouth numbing experience.
This is a hidden gem in Flushing.
The staff was super super nice and professional. Also patient. I had the dumplings and chili oil and the scallion pancakes. I have yet to try some dumplings like those. If you are in the area or even live 30 minutes away, you must go and try these dumplings in chili oil. They are the correct amount of spiciness and flavorful.
Delicious food! We ordered a wide variety of dishes. Everything came out quickly and was very flavorful! Excellent portion sizes, great for sharing! Definitely a must try!

Cantonese restaurant
Good Fortune is a spacious Cantonese Chinese restaurant with a banquet-hall ambiance. The menu offers a wide range of Asian dishes, including wonton noodle soup, roast pork buns, and beef chow fun. While the service can be hit-or-miss and the space may get crowded, the generous portions and affordable prices make it worth visiting. Some diners have noted that the restaurant used to operate under a different name but still delivers delicious family-style meals.
Food is delicious, and the staff is very friendly. We were there before for regular dinner, and recently for a wedding. I will say I was shocked because the quality of food stayed consistent even when the wedding was 150+ people.
Anastasia R — Google review
We visited Good Fortune on a Sunday morning for brunch with family while in town, and it was the perfect spot! Our family recommended it as the place for dim sum, and it definitely lived up to the hype. From the outside, it might seem like a small, casual spot, but inside, it opens up to a large, banquet-style space that reminded me of restaurants in China. They have a variety of table sizes to accommodate groups both big and small, which worked great for our family gathering.
The dim sum carts were constantly coming by, offering all the classics. I was excited to find my favorites, especially the black bean pork ribs with rice – everything was fresh, flavorful, and authentic. We also brought along a birthday cake, and the staff was totally accommodating, letting us enjoy it right there. It made for a wonderful family celebration before our drive back to Canada. Highly recommend if you’re looking for an authentic dim sum experience!
Excellent neighborhood authentic Chinese restaurant with great food and dim sum. This shop not only serves up great food, it has special features of a back counter for prepare-to-order dim sum that one can physically pick up. I like that physicality 🤓 And the front entrance hosts a mini deli-take out area for selected dim sum and meal deals for convenient take out on a busy day when one does not want to cook 👍 brilliant idea. Really enjoy the whole package and “wok hey” with great flavors. Highly recommend 🤩
I absolutely love this place—it has quickly become one of my favorite spots to visit. One of the first things you’ll notice is how spacious it is. Whether you’re coming with a group of friends or just enjoying a quiet meal alone, there’s plenty of room to spread out and feel comfortable. The layout is open and welcoming, and you never feel cramped, even on busier days.
The food here is another major highlight. Everything I’ve tried so far has been fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. From appetizers to desserts, the menu offers a wide variety of options that cater to different tastes. Whether you’re in the mood for something light or a hearty meal, you’re bound to find something you’ll love.
If you’re planning a visit, I highly recommend coming early. It tends to get quite busy, especially during peak meal times, and arriving early means you can beat the rush and get a good seat. Parking is also very convenient—there’s a large parking lot located in the back of the building, so you won’t have to stress about finding a spot. Overall, this place offers great food, plenty of space, and a relaxing atmosphere.
If I decide to review, it will always be 5 stars, as long as the staff is great, the food was yummy and the experience was great, it will always be 5 stars.
So just one thing that did concern me, when we had our glasses, they were not as clean as they should be, we told them to give us new glassware, and they did without hesitation and were very polite. Everything afterwards was perfect so that's important to note.
The food was awesome, the staff was awesome, it was fast, easy and presentation was top notch. I tried my best to control how much I ate, but failed with a smile and full belly.
A staple in Flushing, Queens for as long as I can remember. Back in the day, probably around the year 1998, it started as "East Manor." The place was huge, and the interior was stunning at the time. But like most Chinese family restaurants, whatever the reason nay be, the condition deteiotes rapidly probably due to cheap materials and failure to property clean. Not that it matters to me, I'm just there for the good food lol. The dishes were always good, and the prices real solid. Then, the late 2000s to early 2010s came, and this place went downhill. The exterior looked run down, and fewer customers frequented it.
After major renovations in the mid to late 2000s, this spot is back on point again. It's now called Good Fortune. I've been here plenty for dim sum and dinners. Everything is good, and they even got twin lobsters specials for $30 bucks eat in only. This place is huge so never really any wait even when it's packed on a weekend dim sum.
Decent Dim Sum and away from downtown Flushing. Larger variety overall and very spacious however this restaurant is very loud due to so many patrons. They do also have a take out section to pick up Dim Sum and assorted roast meats.
I recommend parking on nearby streets since free and avoid the chaotic valet parking they offer.
Me and my grandma and Grandpa went there today for lunch and every thing I normally order was fine but as soon as I ate a noodle dish I was so disappointed! I love Chinese food but this restaurant was so different! The ham was to salty the been sprouts I always love was So unflavored! Never going back here! Definitely don't recommend this restaurant!

I’m really disappointed. My little girl went trick-or-treating and decided to wear her cozy sweater and be a bear. The worker told her they only give candy to kids in costumes. She was too small to speak up for herself, and instead of showing kindness over a 5-cent candy, the adults there sent her out upset. I was waiting outside—otherwise, I would’ve said something. This used to be our go-to place for coffee and donuts, but after seeing how they treated a child, I won’t be spending another dime there.
This Dunkin is perfectly fine. They have everything you’d expect. Some coffee, some donuts. They don’t have a public restroom, but that’s kind of expected in New York.
The coffee is about what you’d expect. It’s extremely sweet, and heavy on the milk. If that’s your thing, you’ll love it.
It isn’t my favorite, but gets the job done.
Worst dunking coffee I’ve ever tried it’s here
I ordered a latte but the coffee was strong and burned
It’s was like macchiato or even worst. I’m sorry
Some workers ruin the brand. You have to work on customer service and choose good employees
The worker are so loving, they treat both me and my kid with lots of love and respect. They are absolutely the greatest team of dunking donuts that I've ever encountered through out my life.
I love this Dunkin. They are super friendly and I look forward to coming here. I always do mobile orders and it is ready quickly and correctly. If it isn’t, they apologize and correct it. They’ll even throw in free donuts here and there.
It’s a local Dunkin’ Donuts for the neighborhood which means the workers know who you are because you’re always going there. They literally know all of my families coffee orders and always are welcoming.
today we went morning time.. today morning the big guy is too rude n unprofessional.. we r waiting long-time but he dnt ask anything too.. be cordial n professional plz..

Asian restaurant
Nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Elmhurst, NYC, Nurlan Uyghur Restaurant stands out as a cherished haven for the local Uyghur community. Since its establishment in 2019 by owner Adil Nurdun, this eatery has become a beloved destination for those longing for authentic flavors from their homeland in Xinjiang, China. With an emphasis on hand-crafted dishes, each skewer of meat and every bowl of hand-pulled noodles is prepared with meticulous care.
The food here was incredible—so flavorful and comforting. Every dish felt freshly made and packed with taste. The staff were super friendly and made us feel welcome the whole time. We had a great meal and a really fun experience overall. Definitely a place I’d come back to and recommend to friends.

This is our first time hear and they treated us so nicely. The atmosphere here is so nice and they're so welcoming. And the star of show, the food was really really good. And the price is also reasonable. I would recommend this place and We would love to come here again.
Nurlan is a hidden gem in Flushing! Their hand pulled noodles are something you can never miss out. The owner is so nice and generous that you can feel her passion about this restaurant. If you pass by Main Street, don’t forget to go inside of Nurlan to have authentic Uyghur cuisine.
The food was excellent fresh, flavorful and well prepared. Service was attentive without being pushy, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Overall a very enjoyable dining experience and a place I’d be glad to return to
This place is a total hidden gem! The food is absolutely incredible – bursting with flavor and seriously delicious. And the best part? It won't break the bank! The only thing is, don't expect anything fancy. The atmosphere is definitely more on the casual side. But if you're looking for amazing food at a great price, this spot is a must-try!
I recommend this place to fellow residents. It’s a great spot to try some Xinjiang dishes. If you’re not sure what to order, I suggest starting with the 大盘鸡 — a delicious plate of chicken, tomatoes, and potatoes.
The service at this restaurant is outstanding, and the food is absolutely delicious. Every detail is taken care of with warmth and professionalism, making the dining experience truly enjoyable. I highly recommend everyone to give it a try — you won’t be disappointed!
While in the area with family, we decided to stop for lunch and try out this Uyghur restaurant that was on our list to visit.
Overall, we had a great experience—the food options, quality, and service were excellent.
For appetizers, we ordered the lamb shish and samsa. The lamb shish had a nice char and was juicy, though it could have used a bit more seasoning and a slightly larger portion. The samsa, on the other hand, was generously sized with a flavorful, well-seasoned lamb mince filling.
For the main course, we had the plov, spicy lagman, and lamb with scallions.
The pollo featured seasoned rice with carrots and lamb chunks. While the rice was flavorful, the lamb was on the dry side. The spicy lagman was the standout dish—tender lamb chunks with green and red bell peppers in a rich, spicy sauce, served with hand-pulled noodles that perfectly soaked up the flavors. The noodles had a great chewy texture, making the dish even more enjoyable.
The lamb with scallions was a simple yet satisfying dish. The portion size was decent and paired well with the white rice, though it could have used a bit more seasoning—perhaps a touch more cumin for added depth.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for authentic Uyghur cuisine.
