Queens
At the porte-cochère of Resorts World New York, 110-00 Rockaway Boulevard, Sugar Factory Queens is a 12,000-square-foot brasserie dressed like a Paris café that learned the nightclub. The 218-seat room runs to hot-air-balloon banquettes, café tables, floral walls, and two white illuminated canopy trees, with a DJ booth at one end and a life-size flower wall in neon at the entrance. A private room keeps its own cocktail bar and 14 more seats. The menu moves from Rainbow Sliders and the signature smashed burger to grilled rib eye with Parmesan fries and Cajun chicken penne Alfredo, then gives the finish to a Pink Unicorn hot chocolate or a milkshake in a chocolate-covered mug. It is Queens with the sweet course promoted, built for a celebration that wants the lights on.

"Twelve thousand square feet, 218 seats, and a DJ booth"
Twelve thousand square feet, 218 seats, and a DJ booth at the far end. Queens gets a brasserie that borrowed its glow from a Paris café and its volume from the resort.
"The private room keeps its own cocktail bar"
The private room keeps its own cocktail bar and 14 seats, floral walls still in view, for the table that came to Resorts World to celebrate and stay.
"Rainbow Sliders, a signature smashed burger, and grilled rib eye"
Rainbow Sliders, a signature smashed burger, and grilled rib eye with Parmesan fries share the table with a Pink Unicorn hot chocolate that refuses to be an afterthought.
