Penny Bridge

I went to Penny Bridge with 3 friends and was quickly seated. It's pretty quiet here on weekday nights so it's a great place to grab some good food and drinks and to chat. The staff here are very polite and helpful and we really enjoyed interacting with them. We got the Spinach & Market Greens Dip and the Salmon Tartare to start and were given a free Caesar Salad on the house. I really enjoyed the spinach dip and especially loved the spiced pita bread that came with it. My friends really enjoying the salmon tartare and said they could eat a whole meal of just that dish. For entrees, we shared the Blue Plate Special of Chicken and Waffles, the PB Burger, and the Fried Chicken Breast. The food was all amazing but we especially loved the fried chicken. Their chicken is so moist and tender but the skin is still amazingly crunchy at the same time. Their burger was also delicious and I loved the pimento cheese and fried onions in it! The drinks here are amazingly delicious and so beautiful. We got a Queens Highball, a The a cosmopolitan, a Penny Bird, and a Tequila Sunrise. The drinks are city priced but a must if you decide to drop by!

LOVED everything here! i’ve walked past penny bridge so many times & kept thinking i needed to go. it was really delicious meal, and the setting is beautiful. the service is excellent, and all of the staff were super friendly. the spinach and artichoke dip were a must! i also loved how veggie forward the menu is- they have vegan nachos on the menu and they were very good. the burger was delicious (it was a smashed burger, so the patty was crispy & flavorful). the bread pudding french toast was insanely good- the lemon ricotta spread was soo yummy. I would highly recommend coming here for brunch! they don’t do bottomless, but it is worth it for the food.

Wow, what a fantastic place. The food was excellent. The dishes may seem familiar at first but they have unique mix of flavors that create a whole new experience, like the mozzarella sticks with the fried basil or the nachos with strawberries and guacamole. We also got the burger and the roughage salad. I also recommend getting the highball, if you’re interested in a cocktail. The service was also superb. Everyone was friendly, professional and helpful.

Had a delightful dinner here. The atmosphere and style of everything is very cool. The service couldn’t have been better. They even brought us some delicious strawberry nachos compliments of the chef! Like others have said, the mozz sticks were phenomenal. I got the turkey burger and the sweet and spicy onions flavor was a bit overwhelming but it was still good. And the banana sundae was such indulgent goodness. Would return because there were other things on the menu that sounded good.

I had dinner at Penny Bridge the other night and I have to say that this is easily the best restaurant in Long Island City. Chef Dan Kluger delivers classic American dishes with a unique touch of avant-garde, but without being presumptuous . When I was handed the menu and saw “mozzarella sticks” I thought “Not that. I had those a million times already.”…but when my friend ordered them I took a bite and I realized how wrong I was: those were the best “sticks” I ever had in my life. Lightly crispy without the unfortunately usual greasy smell. We tried several other plates: Corn & Cherry Tomato Fritters, PB Burger, Scottish Salmon, Slowly Roasted Chuck Steak, Potato Wedges. They were all AMAZING. For dessert we had the Pound Cake with strawberries, creme fraiche and lime and the Chocolate Soufflé pudding. They were AWESOME! The marshmallow fluff and honeycomb candy on top of the soufflé are all what Chef Dan Kluger is about: GENIUS. Oh, I almost forgot: the Service was impeccable.

What an incredible dinning experience in Long Island City / Queens by chef Dan Kluger and chef Caitlin Giamario. From the moment I walked in and was welcomed by the friendly host to the kind and warm services i got from the waiters and one of the manager. I took the slow cooked salmon and it was just Perfect. It was served medium rare cooked with tomatoes, cucumbers and feta cheese in a very unconventional way. Loved it. I usually don’t take desserts but because the experience was so great I decided to give it a try and took the banana foster sundae. I asked them to make it gluten free for me so they gave me the cookies packed to take home to my friends (so thoughtful). I will definitely come back to try more. I have my eyes on the burgers (i Hope they have gluten free bun for me) and the roasted cauliflower .

Had the most incredible dinner here. The turkey burger was incredibly well flavored and had none of the dryness typically associated with turkey burgers. The star of the show though was the “Mozzarella” sticks which were PHENOMENAL. Would eat just a meal of them!! Can’t wait to go back again!!

I really liked this place. The food was great, portion sizes were fair. Loved their dessert. Service was pleasant - the waitstaff were very friendly and eager to help us. Only thing I didn’t like was the music volume - it was too loud when I dined there haha.
