I try to keep away from lashon hora, but I can’t hold it in anymore. The Cup is the worst restaurant in Astoria.
No – it isn’t just that the food is bad (actually there’s a Mexican place on 30th Ave and around 29th St that is far worse; and there’s a Chinese place on 23rd Ave also on 29th that, seriously, is serving poison) it is the WASTE. What a perfect location! Right across from the Moving Image Museum, right near the big-ass mainstream cinema, near the subway… And what a sizable place! And the food is just….awful!
Awful!
A good writer cites examples, but I don’t want to remember the dread of putting their food in my mouth. How do you fuck up french fries???! Ugh.
I know I’ll be going there again – the location is too perfect – but I’m only ordering toast and soda.
I’ve been saying this ever since this place opened. Tried two or three times, and every time was terrible. Never again. Cafe Bar is just up the block.
Well, one thing you can do there is…..DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE!!! Bwa ha haaa,
