What Our Customers Are Saying

We held our daughter’s wedding reception at The Skillman in October 2023, and everything was perfect. Gary and his team were warm, attentive, and the food and atmosphere were exceptional. It was a truly special evening our family still talks about.

If you want the ” flair” of a Manhattan restaurant without the ” hustle and bustle”, try this great venue in Sunnyside, New York. They prepare great drinks, that’ll get you primed up for some good eating! And you’ll love the service and the prices!!!

They have an impossible to beat lunch special: a sandwich and beer for $20! The deal included my favorite local beer, Alewife Downtown Blonde. Tons of food and drink options. Huge outdoor patio space.

My family loves this staple of Sunnyside. It used to be The Dog and Duck. Now, The Skillman it’s even better. Completely remodeled and with a new menu it’s one of the top spots again in the neighborhood. Check out my photos. Absolutely delicious food, great beverages, and kid friendly. I love this place.

Walked by and felt like I was transported to London when I saw the restaurant. Had to try it and so glad I did. The mussels were amazing. Service is friendly and excellent. I highly recommend it!

What a great local restaurant. First off, their service was wonderful. Second, food and drinks were amazing. I highly recommend ordering the Apple cinnamon mule. DELICIOUS!! Heads up, might want to call ahead for a reservation.
