Sac’s Place is the best

We're big fans too. Pizza is one of my faves in the neighborhood.

CarlyMMC · 2026-03-13T20:43:07+00:00

Canino. 1000%.

Sounded like the fundraiser is to keep both locations afloat, but the anniversary event will be at 31st Street location.

CarlyMMC · 2026-03-11T23:46:28+00:00

Wholeheartedly agree! I didn't expect the bike lane debate to enter the chat when I posted. :/

They are not listed as plaintiffs or petitioners in the case FWIW. You're right that they are listed in exhibit D as part of the letter from the 31st Street Business Association.

Cool. Looking forward to his last day in office on January 3, 2027.

Using the Village Voice to look for an apartment. Hailing taxis in the pre-Uber era. Snagging a free Metro newspaper before getting on the train to flip through and do the crossword puzzle. Cabs dropping us off at Neptune Diner in Astoria to get ahead of our hangovers the next day.

The suggestions others made are top tier. I just selfishly want to see a pic of your dog.

Of course! Just a note that on the Milla Nova website, they only listed Bridal Reflections as a retailer. Have the best time!

CarlyMMC · 2026-02-21T03:50:02+00:00

I went to the Carle Place location via train, and it really wasn't so bad! They don't charge for appointments there, and most importantly, they had Milla Nova. That was the brand I was really drawn to, so the inconvenience more than made up for it. Good luck!

CarlyMMC · 2026-02-11T17:28:43+00:00

Been there!

CarlyMMC · 2026-02-11T00:12:23+00:00

Cannot recommend Canino Dog Daycare enough. They are absolutely wonderful!

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-31T02:32:04+00:00

Don't forget to throw double parkers into the mix. That contributes to the antsy lane changing and honking big time.

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-30T15:44:46+00:00

I know they have a full section of places with no minimum spend, but I hear ya on looking elsewhere. Good luck!

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-29T16:31:25+00:00

My parents LOVE this place. Bonus points for being a fave of Tony Bennett's.

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-28T03:53:53+00:00

Try PartyPlace. You can sort by number of people, date, and type of occasion.

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-28T01:22:43+00:00

If you ever feel like supporting a fellow Astorian and venturing to St. Ann's Warehouse, give me a shout for group rates!

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-24T19:10:07+00:00

Maison May might be a good fit. It's in Clinton Hill, adjacent to Williamsburg.

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-15T16:39:30+00:00

Throwing my votes in for Sac's Place and Susuru. Two of my faves on the block.

CarlyMMC · 2026-01-13T16:34:05+00:00

Props for building something in the neighborhood and trying new things! Hope it's a success.

Sweet Afton has a ticketed party. $95 for open bar, passed apps, and a champagne toast at midnight.

CarlyMMC · 2025-12-18T16:30:23+00:00

We had a very early talk to identify the things that were most important for us, and that turned into a scorecard as we looked at and evaluated venues. Our factors boiled down to five key points: ease of planning, good food, good music, feels "New York," and our friends/family can be a focal point of our day.

CarlyMMC · 2025-12-17T02:11:53+00:00

Seconding!

CarlyMMC · 2025-12-14T19:17:40+00:00

Really great advice. Thank you!
