The food is delicious; there’s too much food there’s always at least two meals for each order the food that you make. The overall ambience is fun as the patrons that frequent this restaurant are regulars. There’s just a homey and fun tinge to this Bellmore Classic.“

“Once again a wonderful anniversary dinner. For the past 4 years we have celebrated our anniversary here. The food, service and attention were once again top notch. The prices are reasonable considering the quality provided. Just enough time between courses, no rush, no push. I cannot recommend this place enough.“

“The food is amazing ,every dish. The portions from the appetizers to the meals are above the average restaurant.“

“We lucked upon this lovely place when staying in a nearby hotel due to a canceled flight. I highly recommend the burrata appetizer; our other dishes were great too but came from the specials menu so you may not be able to get them consistently. Soft shell crabs, veal osso buco... but I think anything you get there will be fresh and of the highest quality. Good wine list too. If we ever find ourselves in the neighborhood again we will make a point of returning to Franina.“

“What a great night at Talina! The food was phenomenal, the atmosphere was perfect, and Max our bartender was awesome—he really elevated the whole experience. We had an amazing time and will definitely be back.“

“Note of Appreciation: Luncheon Service Jan 8, 2025 Dear Sean B & Trento Staff, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the impeccable service and care your entire team provided during the recent funeral of my brother, Steven Blair. On what was undoubtedly a difficult day, your professionalism and attentiveness stood out, creating an environment that allowed our family to come together in remembrance and support. The timeliness of events, while never guaranteed, was handled with such grace and efficiency by your staff, which brought us immense comfort. I would especially like to commend Sean for the exceptional management of the logistics and preparation. The quality of the food and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and it sincerely exceeded our expectations. Your efforts contributed greatly to making a solemn occasion feel warm and inviting, allowing us to focus on celebrating Steven's life. Thank you once again for your unwavering commitment to excellence during such a challenging time. We are deeply appreciative of all that you have done. KMB“

“Awesome food great friendly service one of our all time favorites“

“I had my son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Zona last night. I was originally booked to have the party on Saturday, but the bride came down with the flu. Gianna was so helpful and accommodating. She was able to change the date for me without hesitation. The day of the affair, the staff was so helpful in getting the room set up for us. Our waitress, Jodi, was absolutely incredible. She made sure that our guests had a fresh drink before they even realized their drink was empty. The food was delicious and plentiful. But most of all, the service that Jodi provided to us was outstanding. I would book another event at Zona without hesitation.“

“Want to thank the folks at Tre Scalini for helping me organize a funeral luncheon for my brother in law’s mom. They are not from the area and tasked us with finding a place near Pine Lawn. The team was easy to work with, accommodated all of the family’s allergies and was affordable. We can’t thank them enough! Highly recommend.“

“Yesterday was the first time I have been to Popei’s. What a great night! From the moment we walked in the owner/chef greeted us. We sat outside in the tent with the great musician. He was very interactive, took requests. People were singing along, It’s was very enjoyable. It was very clear our waitress, Janice was extremely busy but also very thorough careful and caring. It’s obvious she cares about what she is doing and works very hard. Upon my ordering, I mentioned a food allergy Janice double checked that things were OK before she submitted the order. 2 other people came to verify before cooking my meal. The food was SO GOOD! Big portion sizes. Gave my mother dessert to celebrate her birthday. Overall, it was an absolutely fantastic night. We will be back. My only suggestion would be when the musician is taking a break to lower the background music. When he wasn’t singing, the music was still incredibly loud and we had difficulty hearing each other at the table.“

“Went in with a party of 10. 4 of us eat gluten free. The owner came over and explained everything we could have, which was a lot. They have gf pasta. And said that if we call ahead they will make custom meals like gluten free chicken parmigiana. Joe took our order and remembered everything perfectly. We will definitely be back!“

“Don't add salt or sauce. Try the food first. Then you will realize you don't need to add anything. Everything on the menu is cooked to perfection. If this restaurant was in Pretoria we would be locals. The staff and hands on owners are amazing. The service was fantastic and the food next level. In all our travels this was the best destination by far. We hope to see you again soon. Thank you for taking care of us. Ps the guesthouse is just as fantastic. Charlene and Sheriden“

“As a restaurant owner, I never go out and order chicken Parm probably had the best chicken Parm I ever had in my life. The atmosphere is great. The service is great. Just an all-around great place. The food was fantastic. Three times so far to try everything on the menu highly recommended referred by Mr. Michael.“

“Had an amazing dinner at Flora’s! We tried the Melanzane eggplant and the seasonal Red Snapper special, and both were absolutely outstanding. Nido gave us excellent recommendations and made sure we had a great experience. The food was delicious, the staff was incredibly friendly, and the owners were welcoming and attentive. Great atmosphere, great service, and an overall fantastic meal. Definitely recommend checking this place out!“

“Such a beautiful venue. Our dinner was excellent from service to food. I highly recommend.“

“Last Sunday I hosted a 50th birthday celebration for my son. We had explored several different restaurant options and when we arrived at Mangia e Bevi on Mothers' Day we were immediately greeted by the assistant manager Debbie. She enthusiastically explained the menu options, showed how the tables would be set up and, even, introduced us to the team members who would be our servers. We were not only impressed by how beautiful the restaurant is, but how genuine and forthright Debbie was. Fast foward, our party consisted of 23 people who have not stopped talking by how delicious the food was, how attentive the service was (shout out to Carmela and Chiara), how solicitous Debbie and Manager Stacie were, how efficient the bartender, kitchen staff, hostess and every other employee were! We enjoyed the rice balls, coconut shrimp, crab cakes, baked clams, calamari, pasta, veal, chicken, salmon, cannoli, cookies, wine, beer, prosecco, and fabulous craft cocktails!!! Shall I go on? Do not hesitate for a second and book your next party there!“

“I just had my daughter’s baptism at Fabio’s. From the food to the service everything was amazing! My guests were raving about the food. We did family style and it was more than enough food. We even had leftovers to take home! Fabio went above and beyond helping us set up the decorations the night before my party. We never felt rushed (we were there til 1am). He wants his guests to have a great experience and we did! Thanks to Fabio, Rose, Marty and the entire staff for a great party!“

“Excelente restaurante, la comida exquisita y muy buen servicio. Lo recomiendo 100%“

“Great Friday night out with friends. Food was amazing. Pizza dough was very good. Above average for wood fired. Vodka sauce excellent and I’ve had my fair share. Appetizers were excellent. Gotta get the stuffed zucchini flowers. And our waitress was excellent. Very attentive and not too over the top. And get the ice cream. The hot fudge was awesome! Cant wait to go back and try different pies. I do have one negative thing to say however. The lighting was making me feel dizzy at times due to the yellow tint, not a fan. But overall, the pros def. Outweigh the one con. Shoutout to my Antigua 25’ crew for coming along and introducing me to this wonderful establishment!“

“It's been a long time since I've eaten here and wish it was longer!! Hair in my food and waiter didn't even apologize! Terrible service and the food was sub par!!“

“The food, service and staff is excellent. This is one of my families favorite restaurant to always go“

“My wife and I recently hosted a baby shower for our daughter. To say the party was excellent wouldn’t be accurate. It was more than excellent. The food, the service, the staff could not have been better. All of the 55 guests raved about every aspect of the gathering. Many of these guests had never been to Bacaro before but now said they would definitely be coming back. If I had to come up with one negative… I couldn’t. Thanks for making a special day everything we could have hoped for.“

“Friendly service Excellent food“

“Good food excellent and attentive service generous portions Thank you for a great dining experience“

“My husband and I had Chicken franchese, Gnocchi sorrentino, Sides of caesar salad and penne ala vodka. Everything was delicious. Even the oil to dip the bread in was amazing. I loved everything! We can’t wait to go back and try the family style dinner.“

“Last night 6-25-25 the Nassau County Camera Club had their awards dinner there with twenty four members attending. The dinners and service were outstanding. Michael could not do enough for us, as always. All of our guests were very impressed. Personally I have had many parties there and have recommended LaNovella to many people. Try it, you will love the food! Thank you Michael for making this dinner a success.“

“only complaint was how busy it was and I can totally understand why. everything was amazing steaks and italian food alike. I'm super picky about my food and I was shocked how great everything was.

“We had a Mothers Day celebration Sunday at this fabulous seafood restaurant. There were 15 of us- 9 adults and six children between 5 and 12. We traveled an hour to get there. The food was delicious- fresh, tasty and the portions were so large that everyone took a doggy bag home. It was served by a great staff including Angel who was our server. The owner, Donna, was very cordial and friendly. Everyone had a great time. We can't wait for our next family dinner to return. This is a must restaurant if you are a seafood lover!!“
