Fatima’s is the ONLY place for good Chinese in Astoria. No question!
Always very fresh. During lunchtime the chefs come out and prep the vegetables in the main dining room, right front of you, so you know its clean and nothing is pre-packaged or reheated. Never once got sick from any of their food. 10/10

question: Isn’t the scale in a deli supposed to be where it is visible to the customer? The deli I go to on 30th avenue and 36 street has it covered by boxes of cookies and breads and other stuff.
No one can see the scale, ever.

Their food was never that good anyway. I never saw many customers in there at any given time.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.

Some of the vehicles were stolen from owners’ driveways, some with the keys or key fobs inside.
