OMG... First i was skeptical but let me tell you... The food was delicious ?. The seafood was fresh. You pick what you want and they cook it how you want. The staff was friendly and very professional. They always came by our table to check and see if we needed or wanted anything. There is no parking on the premises but there is a lot around the corner as well as street parking. Prices vary based on what you like and affordable. I have to applaud ?? ?? ?? this establishment. The atmosphere, music, and the people were on point. I wish I could give them 10 stars.
It was my first time and really loved their fresh seafood. Their staffs were super friendly and the seafood was SUPER fresh literally the lobster was picked out from the fish tank. They have many variety of fresh fishes. I had lobster and giant wild shrimp with a side (eggplant salad). The lobster was oven baked stuffed with some fresh veggies. I ate every bit of it lol. With the price and quality of seafood it was totally WORTH it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for seafood lovers!
We’ve tried a few made to order seafood spots in Astoria this Spring. Abuqir, Astoria Seafood, and now Hamido. In our opinion, Hamido is probably the most pleasant experience out of the 3. The food is well seasoned. The service is definitely the best of the 3, and the sides are just as good as the fish. The restaurant itself is clean, well run, and fully staffed. It may be a little more expensive than the other 2, but I think it’s probably worth the benefits I mentioned for a lot of people. That said, all 3 are excellent options depending on the day.
Food was perfection!! Even the side dishes - NAIKED IT! Lots of TLC.
Wow we were totally blown away by this place!First time trying Egyptian food, and the seafood was exceptional, super fresh and flavorful.We asked for recommendations from the nice man at the fish counter. He suggested the bass baked Egyptian style, and the red snapper baked with olive oil and lemon. We also got fried calamari and grilled tiger shrimp (highly recommend this)For the sides, we got the babaganoush, garlic eggplant, and Hamido salad (cucumber, tomato, and onion). Each dish was honestly excellent.Everyone who worked there was so welcoming and friendly. Thank you to the man who helped us with recommendations for being so patient with all our questions!To top it off, prices are a steal considering the quality and was a very affordable dinner for 3 of us.I will definitely come out of my way to come back and will bring more friends next time :)
One of the best seafood spot in the area! You get to pick your food and they cook it right in front of you. I went there on a date and we had octopus,shrimp and fried calamari. The sides were also really good. We had fries and the hamido salad. The food was delicious I strongly recommend!!!
Coming in the hospitality was great but it took over an hour for us to get our food we came in at 715 and got our food at 815. It is really slow behind the counter when ordering and again when waiting for the food and appetizers. The fish is pretty good but was over seasoned. The fried shrimp were the best I have had though. Overall I would try another place next time. For just the snapper and some shrimp our total was over $75 before tip.
Came in for a quick lunch. Had bronzini, babaghanoush, and salad. All very fresh and simple. Great service. My favorite thing was the mint lemonade, very balanced! Saw tables with whole lobsters and looked amazing. All in all, it’s very affordable.
what an amazing meal with fresh shrimp, fish and delicious Greek veggie.Apparently it’s not super busy around 11am on a Sunday which is surprising. A true seafood lover would be so happy to come here. First you pick your seafood and the good chef will make it the way you want it with couple selections. They will take your order for hummus and whatnot after that and seated.I am not a fan on whole fish but they are definitely fish. Price is pretty reasonable with cooking and seasoning. I love the fresh shrimp grilled and a little burned.Selection of seafood include whole fish, lobster, shrimp, octopus and salmon. It’s just exciting to see your food before it’s cook without the fish market smell.
Great restaurant with traditional seafood dishes of Egypt. Decor is awesome, feels like you’re in Alexandria. You pick the fresh seafood and the way they prepare it. Well seasoned. Good service. Reasonably priced side dishes. Herring salad was amazing. Lunch special is available ending at 4pm.
