Forest Hills Eatery Updates: Liquor Licenses, Ownership Changes

FOREST HILLS, QUEENS — A Thai restaurant under new ownership and a Forest Hills Stadium purveyor with a renewed liquor license are among the latest restaurant updates in Forest Hills.

These updates were presented this month at a Community Board 6 meeting, as the board voted on restaurants aiming to obtain alcohol licenses — all of which were unanimously approved.

Here's a rundown of the restaurant news in Forest Hills that we learned about this month:

Forest Hills Stadium will continue serving alcohol. Levy Premium Food Service, a company that provides the stadium with food services as well as wine, beer, and liquor, successfully renewed its liquor license (meaning you can crack open a cold one while watching a concert this summer).

You can also still get booze at Spring Thai Fusion and Bar. The eatery, which was initially permitted to sell alcohol with a temporary license (a relief measure granted by Governor Hochul last year), got its full license approved. Spring Thai Fusion and Bar is located at 96-40 Queens Boulevard in Rego Park.

Star of Siam has new owners. Described by the board as a "small Thai restaurant," this Metropolitan Avenue eatery (located near the corner of 71st Drive) underwent a change in ownership. The board, after visiting, said that employees are pleased about the new owners, who aren't planning on changing much about the restaurant. You can visit Star of Siam at 103-18 Metropolitan Avenue.
