“Yes!, but I have been there a few times all have been great but this last time. The food was salty. I mean every dish. We spoke to manager who was extremely nice. Apologize and did the right thing. But I will go back for sure“

“First time here. Made reservations. Table was ready. Bar is very small. Food was good. Service was excellent. Had the special flounder fillet with shrimp. It was good. Fish was ok. Rice balls were delicious. Restaurant is in a house. Very quaint.“

“Excelente comida y pizzas italianas 💥💥👍🏻👍🏻“

“This place never disappoints. Last night I sat and had a table filled with dishes that were so delicious. Spare ribs were falling off the bone and seasoned to perfection. Steve makes the finest dishes packed with savory goodness. Love the bread and toppings. Their Pesto pasta with broccoli rabe and sausage is amazing and one of my favorites. Quaint place with wonderful service too. I recommend trying each dish ❤️?“

“Staff and food were amazing. High recommended“

“Love their food. Just not happy with the pizza“

“Friendly service and delicious food.“

“BEST FOOD EVER, ALWAYS FRESH !!! FRENDLY STAFF . A MUST TRY!!“

“We, thankfully, had a reservation on a Saturday night. We had a spacious table for 4. Brittany was our waitress. She was wonderful. She introduced herself, took our drink orders, gave us time to look over the menu, told us about the specials, was attentive to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted. The appetizers she suggested were delicious. The courses were nicely spaced apart. Each course was cleared from the table before the next course was served. We never felt rushed. The food was excellent. Atmosphere was quiet to enjoy a conversation. We will certainly be returning.

Parking: We used the valet parking.“

“This is my all time favorite place. Great for a quick bite or a sit down. I recently had a birthday dinner celebration here and not only did everyone absolutely love the food and atmosphere but the service was phenomenal as well. The owner is the nicest restaurant owner I have ever met. Every time my boyfriend and I dine there we say we just had the best meal of our lives. Then we go back again and it just keeps getting better. I am excited to continue living so I can keep eating their food.My top three entree picks:Penne Castello, Shrimp Fra Diavolo, and the Rigatoni alla VodkaAs an additional note: I am an Italian woman that's been eating Italian food my entire life... and this food is UP there.“

“This is my fiancé and mine official favorite restaurant of st.James and surrounding areas! Always great food and staff, we have even used their catering and the owner Sal always comes over and says hi! Keep it small and make sure you come to this amazing small business. Skip the sushi and big chain restaurants 😂“

“Thank for my roast beef and mashed potato and my buffalo blue pizzas 🍕 yesterday, my husband was so happy I bought his two favorites back to Pennsylvania for him! They travel great and always delicious 😋“

“My husband gets Too Good to Go from you guys weekly. I had to leave and review and say that the BBQ Chicken Slice is amazinggggggggggg. Absolutely amazing. Everything from you guys is great, but this slice is on another level! 🤌🏻😚💕“

“The food at this restaurant is exceptional, with delicious flavors and generous portions. The atmosphere has the perfect balance between classy and comfortable, making it ideal for any occasion. The service is outstanding—professional, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive. The waitstaff are knowledgeable and genuinely helpful.

During my father's recent visit, he accidentally dropped his wallet outside the restaurant. He didn’t notice until the check arrived. After paying, as they were about to leave, the Maître d' approached him and returned the wallet, which had been found and kept safe. Not a single item was missing, and my father was deeply grateful for their honesty and care.

This restaurant not only serves amazing food but also exemplifies integrity and exceptional customer service. Highly recommended!“

“6 of us had dinner ,don't understand why this place isn't packed each night. The food here is always fabulous. Had a lovely waitress and the food did not disappoint. Rice balls and sausage with cherry peppers as appetizers both excellent. Chicken franchise was tender and the side of spaghetti is usually a throw in but this place makes it special.

Parking: Plenty of parking.“

“I had the bowtie pasta with shrimp in a pink sauce, and it was delicious! The dine in seating area was small but comfortable. We were a party of 10. The pizza area was busy with a lot of take out pizzas, and it was a Wednesday night.
This was my 1st time at Bonappetito in Smithtown, I live near Port Jefferson, and I definitely will go back again!“

“They catered our party and the food was fabulous. Their meatballs are soft and the best we’ve tasted. The trays were filled to the top. The chicken parm, chicken francaise, and pasta dishes were great. Hero was great too. I was a little hesitant hiring them only because I had never used them before. I decided to use them because we had gone there for dinner a few times and loved the meatballs and other dishes (chicken bruschetta for one) and their homemade dipping sauce for their bread. I could be happy with the dipping sauce and bread alone, delicious! We will definitely use them again to cater. They delivered and were right on time.“

“Cosy little place with the Italian vibe you'd expect from a charming Long Island Italian place. It's half traditional slices and half sit down Italian restaurant. The sit down food is great and the pizza is higher level. Not your average corner store.They have a wine selection worthy of this level of Italian cuisine.I always judge Italian restaurants by their eggplant dishes. This one passes the test.Servers are quick and courteous. They always have more people on staff then needed so there's never a wait. At least every time I've been there.I used to go when I grew up a few towns over and it doesn't seem to have changed.Their Sicilian is my go to when it comes to slices. I like their marinara sauce for dipping as well.

Vegetarian options: Pizza and eggplant dishes.

Parking: Always more then enough. The parking lot is huge.

Kid-friendliness: Not kid oriented but definitely kid friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's ground level.“

“This was my spot growing up in East islip. Great food and people! Always grab a slice when I’m home“

“I ate here after a long day of work. And I had the best experience ever. The server Emily was very nice and helpful. And made sure I got my food on time and well made. She is there to work and work only. And I appreciate a server like that. Excellent service.“

“I attended an event Friday night and this place blew me away on so many levels. The food was amazing, but the service was even better. Between Kaitlyn giving me a sample of one of the wines because I told her I was picky about wine and Zack accommodating an absolutely ridiculous request, they were all just amazing people. I’m autistic and I make some ridiculous requests sometimes, but Zack didn’t even bat an eye. I have pet rats and I saw that broccoli rabe was on the menu as a side, so I asked if I could take home like a single piece and he didn’t even blink, he just said to remind him before I left. I will definitely be patronizing them in the future“

“This place is for the foodies! We dinned at the Patchogue Location on a Saturday 4pm and had the place to ourselves which was nice. We ordered The Sals fried chicken bowl with caesar salad, it was so good! we also ordered the mac & cheese and this was probably one of the best i’ve ever had, 10/10 must try. The parmesan truffle fries are perfectly crisp and delicious. The risotto balls were also very good! Our server Gianna R was so sweet and attentive. Highly recommended this place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️e“

“Hi guys We just wanted to tell you how amazing all the food was we had catered over the weekend!! Wings were 10/10 chicken francese and penne vodka 10/10. Salad and a hero My guests were very pleased 😀 So I told a few people how good you are and the service was amazing Thank you very much 🥳🥳 Liz Girl with the nice truck 🤩“

“Rocco's Pizza is a 5/5. I have been going there 10 years+. My eldest son was the first fan of the Buffalo chicken and Marsala pizza slices when we first moved to Patchogue. Now my youngest son also loves the Buffalo chicken slices. The atmosphere is friendly and the employees greet you with a smile! The prices are affordable and the food is delicious. I definitely recommend Rocco's of Patchogue!“

“We had a delicious meal with the family.“

“Dinner was excellent! Extensive menu. Ordered from the pasta section of the menu gnocchi a la vodka with melted mozzarella on top. It was delicious. There was an unprinted kids menu that included good items like spaghetti and meatballs, lasagna, chicken fingers with fries, pizza, etc on the night we went. Chose the spaghetti and meatballs and it came with a large bowl of spaghetti and two giant meatballs. My portion was huge too. They were all about service. Very friendly and attentive team members. The restaurant was very busy, but the food came out relatively quickly and very hot.

The only reason I gave the atmosphere four rather than five star rating is because the front door area was so crowded and congested when we arrived that we couldn't get through the dense and unorganized crowd to figure out where the hosts and hostesses were to request a table. We had never been there before so we had no idea if that was a line for a table or takeout. Appears the front door has a take out order counter or area there. There was a back side door that we ended up using and found some hosts in the middle of the restaurant to ask for a table. To our pleasant surprise there was table readily available for us on the patio!“

“Great food, great service, great ambience and fair prices make for a great dining experience!“

“I have had Isabella’s pizza and hero’s before but never a pasta dinner. Now I know why. I did not enjoy it at all. I ordered lasagne with chicken parmagian and meatballs. The lasagne was mostly chicken, hardly any lasagne. The meat balls were good. I was’nt to crazy about the sauce. I will still get pizza from there but not a dinner.“

“My family and I went to them since they first opened.. and when I say there was NOTHING that they made that was anything below amazing, believe me! From their pizza to pasta, to rolls and salads.. even their garlic bread. The hospitality they all provided, especially Benny, was enough to make you remember them forever.. then you add on their food? Forget it. Nothing holds a candle to this place and the family. They are SORELY missed! I have yet to find a salad/vinaigrette, or a marina sauce, from any other place that comes close to this place. I dream of that antipasto!! Thank you for all your years of service to the community. You are so, so missed. I hope your family is enjoying retirement! Love always, Victoria “Bella” (Benny called me that ever since I was a baby!!), Alice, and Raymond ❤️“

“Great place to go with friends or significant other. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. The food is fresh and delicious. Great drink selection. The service is very good. If you have not tried Virgola, you need to go!!“

“We are very happy with L'anatra. Love their pizza and we had them cater a party for us this weekend. They delivered to the door for free and the food and presentation was beautiful. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I wish them much success and highly recommend. Will cater from them again!!“

“Delicious pizza!! Highly recommend to anyone who loves a good slice! Nelson and his staff make amazing food! Great service and always very friendly! May God continue to bless your business!!“

“One of our favorite pizzerias. Love all the options. Pizzas and salads are the best around!“

“Had a wonderful lunch with three friends today. Great food and service. Such a wonderful surprise will certainly make it a go to place. Thanks for a great lunch.“

“My family and I have eaten at this Anthony's almost every Wednesday for many years. The food is always wonderful—hot and delicious. The restaurant is consistently clean, and the service is always top-notch. Our favorite server is Sam; she always goes above and beyond to ensure we have a terrific dining experience. The other servers are also friendly and attentive, even when the restaurant is busy—and the same goes for the bartender. I recommend Anthony's to friends all the time and will continue to be a regular customer.“

“They are my go to for all my party meals... they are all friendly and personable, plus the food is awesome!!!“

“I just found great pizza in Suffolk County 8.4 had the Roman style. Unbelievable and white slice absolutely amazing with a grilled chicken Caesar slice the wife loved it keep doing what you doing and thank you.. see you soon!!!“

“It’s Tuesday night I just left there speaking to Frank. My name is Thomas Kos. I’ve said this numerous times I believe since I moved to this area there’s no sense of even going anywhere else I’m a big pizza person the Sicilian in the regular or some of the best I’ve ever had the chicken bacon ranch is probably the best slice of pizza I ever had in my 56 years. The people are kind the workers are great it’s just no need to go anywhere else. Great deal on Tuesday and the slices are always huge, I’m shocked sometimes the size of a slice. Guys thank you for everything. Always great going in there.“

“I order here every single week. Never a complaint. The gentlemen that work there are always super pleasant and smiling.“

“great food excellent service“

“I came in there over the summer with my wife and my grandson, Gerald. We were greeted by a young lady by the name of Brooke. Let me tell ya, she was a wonderful waitress to mi familia y yo! She brightened up out dinner experience and made the whole restaurant glow with positivity. I have never experienced such amazing service in my 73 years of life. I especially want to thank her for being nice to my grandson. he has severe autism and she was just a doll! She even sang him happy birthday (he was turnin 7). I tell ya what, if I hadn't lost so much money to these darn taxes, I would've left a $100 tip for this sweet girl. PLEASE give miss Brooke a nice raise. And give her my best wishes. Hugs & Kisses, -Rupert, Gerald and family <3“

“Amazing food and service. So cute!“

“To start my review, I just wish there were more stars in the food and service category. Trio deserves 10 ⭐'s for both.This restaurant handles two types of food service, restaurant seating and catering for small to large parties. I've now experienced both. My most recent was a repast after a funeral. When everyone is emotional, the last thing the family needs is problems with the food service. Well, in our case, more people showed up than were originally expected. The staff at Trio didn't miss a beat. They set up additional tables in a flash and quickly had the tables set. We had buffet style dining and the selection was outstanding, with something for everyone. From soup to nuts, everything was delicious. They had fish, beef, vegetarian selections and even offered coffee and dessert. (by the way, if I had known how good the desserts would've been, I might have eaten a little less dinner.)The service is impeccable, everything is clean and fresh, the linens and tablecloths were spotless.I'd like to add that Trio is on the grounds of the Holbrook Country Club. You can grab lunch and drinks after you play, just show up and they accommodate parties of all sizes. You won't be disappointed!“

“Meatballs-tasted almost identical to when my Italian, childhood best friend’s grandma would slow simmer them ALL day long every Sunday!! The grilled chicken in the Greek salad was very moist and soft. Loved their 6 slice pizza too-great cheese and perfect amount of sauce that’s way less acidic than other local pizza, maybe partially because they use less sauce. Staff were very kind too. Highly recommend.“

“Reliably great food and friendly service!“

“Their food is delicious...great service in a relaxed casual atmosphere..will definitely be back..❤️“

“Best Sicilian slice around“

“they are the best. Tried about a dozen items and all were terrific. Very accomodating.“
