DINING DIVA: FINO - FRENCH BISTRO
BY HELENE OELERICH
This French Bistro on Bell Blvd. has delicious food. It is
an elegant hot spot showcasing fine wines floor to ceiling
and a menu of exceptional appetizers and entrees. Their
chef does a wonderful job with a menu that includes creative
side dishes and desserts, as well as drinks and cocktail
specials.
FINO is located at 39-13 Bell Blvd. Hours are Tuesday
through Thursday, 4 pm – 10 pm and Saturday and Sunday,
4pm – 11pm. Closed on Mondays and they are not currently
serving lunch. Reservations are recommended; call
718-229-1330. Parking is available on the street or at the
municipal lot a couple of blocks south on 41st Avenue. You
can check out the menu on finofrenchbistro.com.
P.S. We’re looking forward to visiting their new restaurant,
The Lazy Cow, located at 42 Avenue and Bell Blvd.
At press time the new venue was not yet open, but if it’s as
good as FINO, we can’t wait!
Phil and Helene say, “Bon Appetit!”
