“I’m a super picky eater and a vegetarian, and I still had one of the best dining experiences here.

We tried multiple restaurants in the area throughout the summer, and while we had many great post-beach meals, this one was outstanding. We originally got a nice spot outside, but after a few minutes they kindly moved us inside because it looked like it might rain. The restaurant is pretty inside, with a rustic, warm atmosphere, so we didn’t mind moving inside at all.

My cocktail was delicious, balanced, and very summery. I started with the burrata with fig jam, baby arugula, roasted tomato, and balsamic glaze, and passed the prosciutto to my husband. The burrata was fresh and delicious, especially with the fig jam, and the tomato actually tasted like a tomato! Whoa! I know that should be normal, but somehow it usually tastes like nothing. IYKYK.

We split the Pretzel Baked Brie, and both loved it. It also comes with fig jam.

For my “main,” I had the goat cheese ravioli without the prosciutto. Newsflash: it was perfect without it. It also came with two pieces of bread for scarpetta, which I appreciated. My husband had the beet & squash salad and the braised short rib grilled cheese. Both disappeared pretty quickly, and neither was exactly tapas-sized. So I think that says enough.

Then we fell for the phrase “mini desserts” and dared to order one each. Turns out they are not that little. Ordering two was completely unnecessary, and I couldn’t even finish mine, but both were delicious.

Our server was very nice, attentive, and polite throughout. The flavors were bold and playful, but really well-balanced. Nothing boring about this meal. The kind you actually remember.“

“Good service drinks and people“

“Great music and tasty cocktails“

“Been here a couple of times. Once on a date night Thursday with my wife, another time for birthday party on a Saturday night with DJ C Natryl. He created a sick vibe. Can't wait to come back to hear him play again!! Nice little room that really is a gem. :)“

“1st time eating here, everyone was xtra friendly. The food was so good, seasoned just right, the shrimp plantain nachos are def a must. Drink were so good (made by Ethan), they’ll def sneak up on you. Overall everything was perfect, I love the decor can’t wait to come for brunch.“

“I grew up in a 100 percent Italian family and I have to say Nona’s lasagna was the best I’ve ever had in my life. At 58 years old I have had plenty of lasagna. This is my new go to spot for Italian fare.“

“You'd have to go to New Orleans to replicate this vibe!!!“

“To Kayla, the Bartender

Behind the bar where laughter flows,
Kayla shines, and everyone knows.
With steady hands and a welcoming smile,
She makes every visit worthwhile.

She remembers faces, names, and drinks,
Always one step ahead, quicker than you think.
Mixing more than cocktails in every glass,
She pours kindness that always lasts.

No matter how busy the evening may be,
She treats every guest like VIP.
Turning ordinary nights into memories to keep,
Creating moments that run more than skin deep.

So here’s to Kayla, one of a kind,
With talent, heart, and a generous mind.
May every toast be raised in her name,
Because every bar is better with Kayla’s flame.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and if you’re looking for a friendly atmosphere for dinner or to watch your favorite team, Sal’s Place is the place to go. There is a separated dining area so you’re not just crammed by the bar. No pool table, no fights, no hassles. Food is good with a large variety of options plus specials. The staff busts their asses to make sure your needs are cared for. If you’ve never been here, give it try and I promise you it won’t be the last time you’re there.“

“Julia is the best Bartender! So friendly, smart and has the best positive vibe. She's professional and made our day. She's worth the trip if coming from out of town.“

“The food was amazing and the margarita was delicious“

“ROCKET FUELS ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!!

Beautiful spot to sit close to the water and enjoy cocktails while listening to music.
I’ve been here quite a few times, most bands are a hit - some can be so so.. but that’s not the restaurants fault when you give bands a shot to perform.

The food has never disappointed us.
The mixed drinks are always great, especially the specialty drinks.

The service is always so warm & welcoming since coming here for the last 2 years a few times a month during the summer - I have NEVER had an issue with exceptional service from each individual who works there!!!!

PS. SO HAPPY THE TOWN FINALLY PUT LIGHTS IN THE BATHROOM!!!“

“Went to the Farmingdale location last night, service was fast and great, drinks were tasty, food was excellent!“

“This place is so great. Stumbled in just now and ordered an egg sandwich to take on the beach…and of course had no cash. No ATM card. Owner didn’t hesitate to say “no problem! Enjoy!” So classy! Made our day. This is my go to place at the beach in 2026! Best October beach day vibes ever!!!“

“My daughter had her 5th birthday party there this weekend. The was many party packages to choose from. They had several safety measures in place that made everyone feel comfortable in their establishment. The staff work with me with our constant changes and were very helpful throughout the whole process. My daughter and her friends enjoyed the party we would recommend it to friends and family.“

“You know that pub that never fails, that pub that always greets you with a smile that comes from the heart rather than the intention of taking your money, that pub that watches your back if you come in alone, that pub that stands up for female comfort and security during a night out, that pub that leaves you with dream like memorable moments when your week has been nothing but a nightmare. Well, to put it simply, this is that pub.“

“Great food, great service and atmosphere.“

“Had a bunch of friends meet us there for a quick put together birthday and everything was great. Wings are amazing here- the kind you crave after you ate 25 of them. Thank you Sean (Bartender) for putting up with us that day!! You made it a smooth process for the birthday bay!!“

“Had lunch here today for the first time and everything was excellent! Went with a group and we ordered appetizers to share. Mozzarella sticks, fried pickles, potato wontons, onion rings, everything pretzel and fried mozzarella — delicious!!! We were seated right away and the waitress was very friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back!!!“

“Great food and equally great prices. very welcoming!“

“excellent“

“Love going here with friends for a fun night of bingo or karaoke. The bartenders / owners are always very nice and respectful to me and my friends. As a repeat customer, it means a lot when a bartender remembers what you order. With the limited amount of LGBTQ inclusive spaces on Long Island, we should all be grateful for a safe space like this. Remember, you have to respect the space to be respected. 💕✨“

“A friend and I had lunch here today. The food and service (thank you Taylor) were amazing. Definitely a five star experience.“
