Danny’s Szechuan Garden welcomed an enthusiastic crowd at its grand opening celebration last Saturday, when the populary eatery cut the ribbon on its spot that recently opened for business at 156-40B Crossbay Blvd. in Howard Beach, about eight blocks north of its former site.
For more than three decades, Danny Chan and his wife, Veronica, operated the restaurant at 164-14 Crossbay Blvd. before selling the building last June to New York Families For Autistic Children, a nonprofit group. After a 10-month hiatus, the restaurant opened for business about three weeks ago.

Dining at Villaggio Ristorante in Whitestone is like relaxing in a charming Italian home and being served a fine meal.
Located at 150-07 14th Road, near the Cross Island Parkway, you feel welcome the moment you enter the door and pass by a lovely cherry wood bar and a brick-oven pizza-making area. You can sit in a glass-enclosed sunroom featuring a waterfall or the traditional dining room filled with paintings, drapes and even name plates, if you’re a regular.

- Swimming in options at Howard Beach’s Frenasia
- Posted: March 01, 2012

As the mid-afternoon sunlight poured into Frenasia in Howard Beach last Thursday, everyone from elderly couples to groups of businessmen gathered at wooden tables with views of the Shellbank Basin and hovered over menus offering seemingly endless options of Asian fusion cuisine.
From my own corner of the restaurant, with a view of a colorful Gustav Klimt print, ornate wooden carvings and flowers bursting to life in every windowsill, I could hear the other diners as they debated what they should order. Miso soup or spicy salmon salad for appetizers? The Howard Beach dragon roll or the Tribeca roll? Grilled garlic prawns or sesame-crusted tuna loin for entrees? The options are almost daunting.
