New American Restaurants near Brookhaven, NY

“Painter’s is where portion sizes border on the absurd and service moves at lightning speed. On Father’s Day, with the parking lot packed, we braced for a long wait, but were seated instantly, perhaps by restaurant wizardry. The staff? Efficient, friendly, and impressively attentive despite being slammed. The craft beer selection? Solid, featuring multiple IPAs, including Sand City’s local legend, "Oops I Hopped My Pants." And the food? Each dish arrived in comical abundance, leaving us marveling at the sheer generosity of Painter’s kitchen. Massive portions, incredible flavors. As for dessert, Painter’s offers a parade of palate-pleasing perfection. A symphony of sweets so spectacular they silence self-restraint. Countless confections, crafted with precision, passion, and pure decadence. Bring an appetite, a to-go container, or maybe your Wegovy shot.“

“Food was absolutely fantastic tonight. Actually never had a bad meal here. Worth the price. Service was great too.“

“Excellent Brunch for Mother’s Day! We never go out to eat on Mother’s Day as the restaurants are usually too overwhelmed. I am so glad we came to Shands General this year. The service was excellent and everything was extremely coordinated. The food was delicious and our party of 6 had a great time. Highly Recommend!“

“What a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! I'll go anywhere for a good duck breast, this place absolutely delivered 110%. Right amount of char, the seasoning, and it was cooked to perfection. Smoked salmon and burrata apps were delicious. We couldn't be happier with the very attentive service, quaint atmosphere - and the food was really on point for such an unassuming location. Also, the hot rice pudding with golden raisins was fantastic, as close to grandmas recipe as I can remember coming across! Keep up the spectacular work!“

“Such a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, I ordered the Chef Custom Platter and also ordered the caramel churros, which were absolutely delicious. The portions are great and as someone who looks at ingredients and seed oils, they use cold pressed extra virgin olive oil in all their foods!“

“Recently celebrated our daughter’s 1st Birthday here. After researching many venues in the area we landed with the Grille. Jenn (the event coordinator) was extremely friendly, professional and informative from the moment I called her to inquire about the space. The venue is a dual space. You have the catering room as well as the bar area where there are pool tables and a dart board. Perfect for our guests in their 20s. The food and staff were amazing. I cannot rave enough about Amy, Jenn, Steve, Ernesto and Sabrina. They were all so helpful and accommodating during our event. Jenn was extremely attentive and made sure we had all our desires fulfilled, up until the morning of the party. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this establishment. Book them! You won’t regret it!“

“Trio Restaurant at the Holbrook Country Club is an outstanding venue. It’s primarily an event hall rather than a typical sit-down restaurant, and they really do a fantastic job hosting gatherings and celebrations.
Everyone is treated like royalty from the moment they walk in. The service is excellent, the food is great, and the hospitality is even better. The staff is friendly, helpful, and makes sure everything runs smoothly.
The place is very clean and well maintained, with easy access and plenty of parking available, which makes attending events there very convenient. The atmosphere is welcoming and perfect for special occasions.
They also host private events, so if you’re planning a party, celebration, or gathering, this is definitely a place worth contacting.
I highly recommend Trio Restaurant at the Holbrook Country Club.“

“The Bellport offers great food in a very pleasant atmosphere. In addition it is in a nice location for a stroll to the marina afterwards.“

“Best go to local spot ! Good food and service !!“

“My mom and I hosted a baby shower here, just this past weekend, and we feel we need to scream from the rooftops just how amazing it was! The staff was phenomenal, anything we needed they were right there to help! The food was stellar and all of our guests were talking about how they wish they could load up to go containers from the buffet! If you ever have to throw an event, do yourself the favor and check them out! The owner is the nicest guy and really just went above and beyond to help make the shower perfect! If I could give more than 5 stars I would !!“

“Melinda was absolutely amazing at George’s Luncheonette in Patchogue! She was so kind, friendly, and funny and made the whole breakfast experience even better. She suggested the waffle and it was delicious — freshly made and perfectly crispy. She also let me customize it with chocolate chips, fruit, and whipped cream which made it even more amazing. She made sure our coffees were always full and hot too, which we really appreciated. The breakfast was incredible, but the service was even better. You can tell she really cares about her customers. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Watch Hill is a campground and glamping site inside Fire Island National Seashore, and it’s basically one of the most unique “nature stays” near New York City. You don’t get there by car—you take a ferry from Patchogue and then walk or use a wagon to reach your tent or campsite. The whole experience feels like a mix of beach escape, camping, and national park isolation.

It’s very popular in summer because of the ocean access, safari-style tents, and the fact that you’re staying right in a protected coastal wilderness area.“

“Had a great experience here last night. The food was cooked perfectly. Enjoyed some of the best baked clams I’ve ever had. The drinks looked very creative as well. The skirt steak was tender and marinated in a delicious marinade. The service was helpful but it wasn’t a rushed experience by any means. The patio is dog friendly as well. I will be back!“

“Just found out the cafe has a menu full of gluten free options and tried it out. Amazing place and food was delicious! They have gluten free toast, buns, soups, desserts. My husband was excited to be able to have so many choices in a beautiful restaurant. Thank you! We'll be back for sure!“

“While the food was very good, it was absolutely freezing in the restaurant which ruined the experience. Everyone in the restaurant was wearing their coats, and we couldn’t wait to leave 😡“

“Last time I was here. I wasn't super impressed with the food but I gave it a second shot because a lot of people talk about it when here on mother's day and again, the food left me wanting more. In my opinion, this food is just overpriced for what you get.It's not really that great and the prices are just way overpriced for what you're getting“

“Great place. Thank you from the US Military Vet MC“

“Amazing food, staff and 🍸high-quality restaurant/bar“

“Love this place! A great place to chill out with some food, drinks, and live music 7 nights/week.

Parking: Use your GPS to find it, I could have never found it on my own. It’s a quiet little spot. Very busy on weekend nights during the summer!“

“Fun time! Great atmosphere“
