We had the pleasure of dining at the Snack Bar. The crab was excellent, and the pot roast was incredible. Congratulations on 75 years of serving the North Fork. We have enjoyed the Snack Bar for over 50 of those years. Thank you for the consistent quality.

A classic on the North Fork of Long Island that reminds me of childhood. Best softshell crab and lemon meringue pie on LI.

This eatery was always on point. Haven’t been there consistently in years because I no longer live in eastern Long Island. However, I do have family out that way still and always make it a point to drop in and grab a bite. Always enjoyed their food, especially the soft shell crab dinner. Finish it off with some homemade pie, they have a great selection. Love the nostalgia I get when I visit, I feel like a kid again.

It felt like going to my Grandma Ronnie's for dinner. This is an old- school family run diner. The food tastes homemade because it is. Just on a bigger scale.
My Roast Turkey Dinner came with white & dark meat, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and gravy were included. I also got to choose from several sides offered. I picked mashed potatoes. I added a side of mashed turnips.
My companion ordered the Ruben Sandwich with Onion Rings and the side of Turnips as well. We enjoyed everything.
The food was served diner quick, hot, tasted, and felt homemade. Service was efficient and fast but lacked warmth.
The dining rooms truly feel like you're eating in someone's house. Roomy, cozy and a bit nostalgic.
Many menu items are available to go in larger portions, so I ordered a quart of my beloved Mashed Turnips. I can't wait for dinner tonight.

I love restaurants that have been around for a while, I figure they must be doing something right. That is the case with the Modern Snack Bar since 1950. I finally got to eat here. This is one of the best Reubens that I've had, fabulous juicy lean corn beef that was well balanced with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing. It hit the spot. The menu was a good mix of comfort foods and the atmosphere was the charming, wood paneled dining room and a counter as well. The service was great, making sure everything was spot on and all reasonably priced. Thank you!
