We've all been there right? You're watching tv in the comfort of your own home and suddenly you get this disturbing nuisance of the late night munchies, but c'mon you're too lazy to whip yourself that ultimate snack.

Plus, chances are, you got pizza rat chilling in your kitchen and ain't nobody got time for that! So where can you turn for some late night bites after 10 p.m.?

Well, one of the fine aspects of New York City is that you can get almost any type of food until the wee hours of the night or morning.

It's true, there's nothing like having a great go-to spot or several when you're hungry, and whether your appetite is great or small -- it doesn't matter because you'll always have a list of choices.

And since we know how hard it is to crave something and want it bad, we've complied a list of 12 (in no specific order) awesome late night eateries in Queens just for you. Now go on out there, have a feast and satisfy your late night taste buds!


1. Cherry Valley Deli & Grill (12-19 150th Street)

ny.foodie Get through Monday and reward yourself with "The Beast" from Cherry Valley Deli in Whitestone. It features thick chicken cutlets with bacon and cheese on a foot long hero. Totally recommended! Also get the waffle fries with extra gravy. @tastybitesny πŸ‘ #ChEatFamousFriday #nyfoodie #forkyeah #nycfat #eatingnewyork #topcitybites #feedyoursoull #imshtuffed #nycdining #spoonfeed #nyceats #nycfood #queenseats

If you stop by Cherry Valley Deli & Grill, you NEED to try their killer signature sandwich The Fat Cat.

The Fat Cat comes with your choice of a toasted roll or hero, stuffed with bacon fried onions, two juicy burger patties, french fries, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, American cheese, ketchup, and mayo.

Other tempting items are The Beast sandwich which includes chicken cutlets with bacon and cheese on a foot-long hero or the loaded french fries which are topped with melted cheese and sprinkled with bacon strips while drizzled in mayo sauce.


2. Jackson Hole Diner (69-35 Astoria Boulevard)

lilpoetrid #guacamoleburger #ilovefoodtoomuch 😩

Jackson Hole serves 7 oz. burgers so if you're craving a yummy burger then this place will hit the spot! Go all out and have a fiesta with the mouth-watering guacamole burger and nacho chips combo.

We'd also recommend the Baldouni, a classic burger with fried onions, mushrooms and melted American cheese.

Fun Fact: Part of the diner was filmed in the movie The Goodfellas. Surprisingly, but thankfully, they still keep the 'Air Line Diner' sign.


3. El Rey Del Taco (33-01 30th Avenue)

erolshadood Gracias #ElReyDelTaco for being open to satisfy my late night taco needs

El Rey Del Taco is known as Astoria's Mexican food truck king. They have flavorful sauces and a major plus is that their service is quick.

Their carnitas tacos and chicken quesadillas are amaze-balls!


4. Cristina's Deli (1237 150th Street)

At Cristina's Deli, having a heart attack will solve all your hunger needs and we don't mean a literal one.

We're talking about the heart attack, a delicious chicken cutlet sandwich to die for (no pun intended) with bacon, mozzarella cheese, onion rings and a special banging sauce.


5. Crave Astoria (2855 36th Street)

shalagafary This was my lunch.

Do you have an urge for Greek food? Then Crave Astoria is the perfect choice! Try one of their many different bowls. Although, the Greek bowl with chicken -- hands down is the best!

We also recommend their crave burger or the lamb gyro.


6. Arepa Lady (77-02 Roosevelt Avenue)

littlebabyjeez Best arepa I've ever eaten my life, no contest at @arepalady in Jackson Heights NY. #arepalady #cornarepas #chickenarepas #arepa #bitcheslovetoarepa #jacksonheightsny #queenseats #nyceats #nycdining #notinbabylon #youwerentthere #eatlavishly

The Arepa Lady is a heaven sent expert in specialty corn cakes. Her arepa de cholo (sweet corn cake) combined with cheese and chicken are incredible!

Make sure to also try the arepa de cholo con chorizo (sausage).

Tomo Japanese Cuisine in Jackson Heights offers great and fresh sushi.

Try their fancy roll which brings 10 pieces of smoked salmon, eel, avocado and shrimp tempura with spicy sauce for $12.50.

Also, definitely try their desserts. Their fried ice creams are amazing! We recommend the fried tempura mango ice cream or the green tea ice cream on honey toasted bread. 


9. Boca Juniors (81-08 Queens Blvd)

jay_delgado88 Delicious Argentinean Steakhouse. πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ I fully recommended #bocajuniorssteakhouse #argentineanfood

If you are in the mood for some steak then head on over to Boca Juniors Argentinian Steakhouse.

Have a sizzling tray of ribs, skirt steak and sausage because it will rock your world! In addition, their flan con dulce de leche and deep-fried empanadas are pretty darn scrumptious too.


10. Cabana Nuevo Latino (10710 70th Road)

prettyboyallan Heaven for your palate. #cabana #cuban #latin #latincuisine #cabananuevolatino #dinner #steak #churrasco #skirtsteak #chimichurri #chimichurrisauce #maduros #beansandrice #mojito

The Cabana Nuevo Latino or "The Original" located in Forest Hills serves excellent typical Cuban food.

Savor some tender skirt steak marinated in garlic or accompanied by red onions with some yellow rice, black beans, and sweet plantains on the side.


11. Martha's Country Bakery (70-28 Austin Street)

If your little ol' heart is desiring pies, cookies, cakes, and cupcakes then look no further.

Warning: At first glance you'll get overwhelmed with so many sweets! #sugarrush


12. Eddie's Sweet Shop (105-29 Metropolitan Avenue)

jakecohen Celebrating no cavities with a post-dentist outing for sundaes with my mother and uncle. When we walked in, the woman at the counter said, "Trick or treat!" My uncle replied, "I'll take the trick." Happy Halloween!πŸŽƒ

When in Queens.... Eddie's Sweet Shop is a must!

Once you enter Eddie's Sweet Shop you'll feel like you've entered in a different era...which is pretty freaking awesome. Their homemade ice cream and floats are the best you'll ever had!
