After some delay, it looks like Astoria will get its very own multi-restaurant food hall after all.

Now called World Artisan Market, the food hall is set to open later this fall and is expected to bring a European bakery, an Italian gelato shop and restaurant, Korean barbecue, and Indian cuisine to a renovated warehouse in Astoria — which has largely remained unscathed by modern-day food halls, unlike neighboring Manhattan. There will be about nine restaurants overall, and each will have and operate its own full-service, sit-down space — acting more like a collection of different restaurants than a traditional stall-filled food hall.

So far, the market led by EJ Stevens Group has locked down the following restaurants: Italian restaurant and gelato shop Sotto La Luna, a collaboration between restaurateurs from Milan and Puglia, as well as Elevenses Viennoiserie, which will sell French-Scandinavian baked goods. The company is also in talks with Cafe Boulud alum Juwon Song, who runs Kini, a Korean comfort food spot in Long Island City; and chef Sumita-Gohal Verma of existing Queens Indian restaurant Masala Box, project leader Steve Lysohir tells Eater.

Lysohir also says a South Asian Queens restaurateur whose name he can’t release yet is eyeing space within the market, with plans to potentially open a sit-down restaurant and a full bar. Plus, negotiations are ongoing with food vendors representing Middle Eastern, African, Caribbean, and South American cuisines. The varied food options are meant to reflect the diversity of Queens itself, Lysohir says.

The 18,000-square-foot food hall is being built at 34-39 31st St., at 35th Avenue. There will be some outdoor space too, fit for al fresco dining or a beer garden, though no tenant has been secured just yet.

Despite the proliferation of food halls throughout New York, Queens hasn’t seen much of the buzz. That’s probably because neighborhoods like Astoria are not nearly as crowded as Midtown at lunch hour — but Lysohir is betting that the people visiting new hotels, the nearby Museum of Moving Image, local schools, and new condos will bring in a solid crowd.

The project is now on track to open at the end of fall. Stay tuned.
