The suspect entered the restaurant at 92-12 Jamaica Ave., near Woodhaven Boulevard, about 4:40 p.m. and told the employee that he had a gun, according to police. He then took $500 before fleeing in an unknown direction.

Police have release video footage of the suspect from the robbery and describe him as black, about 6 feet 2 inches tall and 250 pounds. He was last seen wearing a hat, black sneakers and a black coat.
