    My wife and I just celebrated our anniversary there. It is our years tradition. We had a great host named Miguel he was very on top of things and present but not in a bad way the food was to die for. We started with the hummus tasting then for our main course she had the filet mignon with lobster tail and see shared the grilled shrimp and we shared the sizzling mushrooms and to finish it all off we had the chefs ice cream tasting [with peanut butter and chocolate, pumpkin pie, and butter pecan] The price is not a worry when the food is that good as well as the service this is our 6th time and have never had a bad or even close to anything other then spectacular experience at this beautiful establishment. I would also like to thank the rest of the staff at Chart House for the experience the menu had a personalized note on it for our anniversary and Miguel even gave us and anniversary card. This place is the place to go to even if it’s out of the way. The views the staff and the food is all top notch. Thanks again Chart House.

    I didn’t know what to expect when I made a reservation for myself & five of my friends to celebrate my 60th birthday but I was in for the best time. As soon as you walk in you are struck with the elegance of the bar area. Wait staff were very helpful & the view of the East River & Queens was stunning. We were treated incredibly well by our waitress, Elizabeth. The food was amazing & inventive. I would have liked the bar to have more choices, such as I would have loved a kir royale but that wasn’t available. Even though, we had a fabulous time.

    I read a couple of reviews before going to Waterside and saw some people talk about being rushed to order. For me it was on the contrary, our waitress Maria was amazing and the restaurant manager was great everyone was very welcoming and polite. The food was 7/10 appetizers and Main course was good.
