What People Are Saying About Queen Marie Italian Restaurant

Featured Review

The Scene – You want to resist everything about this place--the silly napkin sculptures, the mirrored walls, the color scheme borrowed from the world's worst wedding halls--but somehow wind up enjoying it all in the end. Part of the charm is in the earnest service; part of it is the colorful clientele; but the real charm comes from what emerges from the kitchen. – – The Food – The classic Italian menu gets off to a good start with Queen's famous bread basket, which is loaded with a slew of crunchy, yeasty homemade varieties. Navigating the dinner choices is easy if you…

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
The wine list spans Italy's boot, and some of the better values are down by the toe -- Librandi's Ciro, from Calabria, is a rustic, inexpensive red that'll pair well with anything.

Wonderful Food and Environment!

by SandraRodolfo

My family and I went to this restaurant for Fathers Day. Seven adults 2 toddlers and a baby. They set up our table right at the front of the restaurant which was great. We were out of the way of other people and it gave us liberty with the kids. The food is EXCEPTIONAL, my dad husband and brother inlaw loved the food. The service is top notch everyone from the bus boy to our waiter were great and very accomodating. The only thing was that they did not have a changing table in the bathroom for our two month old but we managed just fine.

I would highly recommend this restaurant. Its a great place to go for dinner. A little bit on the pricy side but it's worth it. The food is fresh and very very tasty.

Our family loved it will definitely go back.

  • Pros: We loved it!

an oasis

by NJ1MAGGI

the moment the array of breads arrive at your table is when you realize that this place is not as it appears....it is definitely not ordinary. For those of you who place importance on ambience, I strongly suggest that you allow the element of surprise to take over... the passion is confined to the kitchen.. .the excellent flavors and quality of the food is even more enhanced by the visual beauty of the untradional, and skillful plating...the result being a two fold work of art.....the service was wonderful..the staff was polite, attentive and pleasant..the prices apprapo........it was a joyful experience and an unforgettable dinner....definitely worth the trip from jersey

  • Pros: excellent food, generous portions, efficient staff
  • Cons: none

Best Italian

by llobasso

The Vitiello brothers are the best chefs in NY. The wonderful seasonal and regional Italian food is always memorable and beautifully presented. You find yourself swept away to a lovely Italian village , eating authentic cuisine. The wait staff is always welcoming and attentive. A wonderful wine cellar always has something special to offer. Aside from the homemade pastas, wonderful home baked breads, delectable desserts and the best house made mozzarella in the city, you can also find old fashioned family favorites. Do yourself a favor and try one of the many varied special menu items. You won't be disappointed. It is a true marvel that they keep coming up with something different. There are so many choices you will want to try them all, which is why I have been coming here for more than 30 years. You will want to come back again and again. I promise that you will be in for a rare treat. Buon Appetito.

  • Pros: Homemade Pastas, Fresh Mozzarella, Awesome Bread

Great Italian in Brooklyn

by BrookBoy

Queen is an authentic, old-school Italian where the kitchen takes pride in everything they do. From the homemade bread and pasta to the main courses and then to the homemade desserts, you can see the care that goes into every dish. Portions are generous, and you'd be missing a real treat if you skip the fresh mozzarella, their signature dish. My wife and I usually order from the daily specials menu, and we also like the linguine with white clam sauce and the shrimp fra diavolo. The dining room might be somewhat plain, but when it's filled with the happy buzz of diners thoroughly enjoying themselves, it takes on a real charm. Do yourself a favor, have dinner at Queen and make up your own mind.

  • Pros: Great food, fresh mozzarella, good Italian wine selection
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Comfort, thy name is Queen.

by ftgreenemike

Queen may well be the one of the best Italian restaurants in Brooklyn and, possibly, the entire City. With its ample portions of delicious food, including a wonderful breadbasket and a respectable wine list, Queen is the kind of place you want to visit with a group of hungry friends who like to share.

While not much to look at from the outside, it has a pleasant, tasteful interior with soothing lighting, comfortable sound levels and decent spacing between tables. The wait staff is from the old school. Which is to say that they perform with quite professionalism and never confuse good service with the number of times they intrusively ask: "How is everything?" They have sense about the allrightness of things at at all times and if something isn't allright -- they make so. A true gem!
