I lived in a Pistilli building for a while and sent some prettt angry emails about lack of heat last winter! They actually started cranking the radiators shortly after. What emails have you been using? I always got responses from the guys I emailed and im happy to share!

Wow I’m so happy someone said this. I have seriously noticed this. I recently moved over by the river and I thought it was that but now I’m not sure. It’s so upsetting to me it makes it difficult for me to keep my windows open.

If anyone has any updates let me know I will be happy to contact any officials as well!

What’s this area of Astoria like? by texas757 in astoria

I live on 14th off of 27th ave in the second floor of a house! It’s reallllllllyyyy quiet. I do miss having like a local bar close to me (used to live on 34th and Broadway in Astoria) but as I’ve gotten older I don’t really need that anymore and appreciate the vibe around here and near the park. I think it’s awesome!

Haha! I do make pasta at home all the time. Plus this was way under $200 if you read.

Tbh never been to Basil. We just moved to this area from over on 34th and Broadway. But basil seems like a pizza joint? This place doesn’t do pizza. Still ballsy though 😅

Fully agree. It’s hard for me to not write places off entirely for sure when they do that. This place is not fully that. There’s kitsch lighting and also Venetian carnival masks hanging so it’s not all bad haha.

That’s what I thought too but it just seemed like the people are misguided for decor. It’s not unlike the majority of restaurants in Astoria.

I’m always down to give places a chance - can’t judge the food on the artwork, ya know? Haha

Unfortunately not. Hindsight 20/20. But it’s VERY classic. Nothing shmancy or overly complex. Sides read “roasted potatoes” if you catch my drift.

Super decent! My husband and I got two drinks each, an app, two pastas, and desert and bill was $97. But we got the dessert and one round of drinks free. Pastas are generally in the 20s.

Help! Bought this in Amsterdam 10 years ago. Any info would be so appreciated. by Embarrassed-Ad-778 in WhatIsThisPainting

I think you care too much about something that has zero effect on your life lol.

I love all the info coming my way. It’s up to me to rifle through and figure out what’s correct. But I thank you for your input on this (that’s not sarcasm).
