Tootles & French was so great! I had the roast chicken that came with mashed potatoes and mushroom. It was so good!! The wine selection was really interesting with a lot of diverse selections. Their cocktails are also really good! All around a great place: great food and wine!

I went to a wine tasting last month featuring wine from Campania. The host was incredibly knowledgeable about each wine, sharing in-depth details about how the wine is made and each note. This was an intimate setting and great for friends, couples and even solo! Tootles served yummy light bites that paired perfectly with the wine. I would definitely go back for another wine tasting!

Unique food choices with a backup ensemble of classics makes for a very versatile dining option. The environment is very relaxed despite the craziness outside, and the service is spot on and veteran. Highly recommend!

Tootles and French never disappoints. The food is consistently exceptional—we had the steak tartare and wild boar entree this time, both absolutely delicious and perfectly prepared. The red wine pairing was spot on. Chad and Vanessa were as hospitable as ever, making us feel truly welcomed. A beautiful dining experience from start to finish—can’t wait to return!

It was a fun dining experience motivated by the USA Today’s Best New Restaurant article. I came with a friend for my B’Day. We were mostly interested in the wine tasting, which was phenomenal. They have the best wines from all over Europe! On the other hand, I was a little disappointed in the charcuterie board, it seemed to be short on cheeses and fruits. The shrimp dish was tasty, and my friend loved the burrata pesto pasta. I would come here again for casual dining and a comedy night. The ambiance is spectacular, loved the setting and the music. The service was great as well, the staff was very positive and accommodating.

Had the most delicious meal with friends at Tootles & French. Shout out to the chicken parm ravioli and the chopped cheese sandwich. The wine list is also spectacular. Looking forward trying more dishes on my next visit.

This Astoria spot is best of the best for service, food and drinks. It’s no wonder they’re voted best new restaurant in America by USA today.. service is next level, staff is super knowledgeable and most of all take care that you have a fantastic experience. Trust me, this is the one. Do not procrastinate, simply just get your ass over..

Tootles and French is hands down one of the best dining experiences in Astoria! My partner and I have been here multiple times over the past year, and each visit is nothing short of amazing. From the moment you walk in, the warmth and hospitality of the staff make you feel right at home. The bartenders, servers, and hostesses all go above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable experience. And let’s talk about the food and drinks—absolutely phenomenal!!! Last night, I ordered a cocktail off the menu, and it was, without a doubt, the best version of that drink I’ve ever had. Every bite and sip at Tootles and French is crafted to perfection. The owners, Chad and Vanessa, are the nicest humans, and it’s so clear how much heart and hard work they pour into making this place what it is. Their passion shines through in every detail, from the ambiance to the menu to the incredible service. This place is a true gem, and if you’re ever searching for a top-notch spot in Astoria, look no further. Highly recommend!
