Best Late Night Legends Restaurants in Forest Hills

4 hand-picked restaurants, critic-reviewed and ranked

Last Updated: February 2026

Our Top Pick
Dirty Pierre’s
A compact Station Square bar with a kitchen that over-delivers on sandwiches.

Notable Picks

$$ Forest Hills American
A small, character-heavy bar-kitchen that wins on big flavors and unfussy execution—exactly the kind of place locals return to for burgers and sandwiches. Keep it simple: one sandwich or burger plus one side, and let the drinks carry the rest.
Must-Try Dishes: French Steak Sandwich, Bistro Burger, French Onion Soup
What makes it special: A compact Station Square bar with a kitchen that over-delivers on sandwiches.

Worthy Picks

$$ Forest Hills Korean
A Korean fried-chicken-and-drinks spot on Austin Street that works best as a wings-first hangout rather than a deep menu exploration. Keep the order tight—one signature wing sauce, one crisp side, and one rice/noodle anchor—so everything stays punchy instead of scattered.
Must-Try Dishes: Soy garlic wings, Spicy wings, Kimchi fried rice
What makes it special: Sauce-forward Korean fried chicken with bar energy for groups.
$$ Forest Hills Thai
A Queens Blvd Thai menu built for big, familiar flavors with enough breadth to cover noodles, soups, and shareables for a mixed group. It’s most reliable when you order around the greatest hits—one spicy soup, one noodle, and one grilled item—so the meal stays punchy instead of scattered.
Must-Try Dishes: Tom yum noodle soup, Tiger cry steak, Pad see ew
What makes it special: A broad Thai menu that’s best when you order the classics with intention.
$$ Forest Hills Burgers
A late-hours burger counter where the move is a focused, fast order—crispy fries, griddled burgers, and a menu built for takeout momentum. It’s strongest when you pick one signature burger and skip the urge to stack sides and extras.
Must-Try Dishes: Oklahoma onion burger, Crispy chicken sandwich, Milkshake
What makes it special: Late-night burger utility with a signature griddled onion build.
