““Excellent service from Issac today at TGI Fridays. He was very friendly, attentive, and professional throughout our visit. He made sure we had everything we needed and made us feel very welcome. Service like his is what makes people want to come back. Thank you, Issac, for such a great experience!”“

“WOW! Their food is out of this world. It is so tasty. You will NOT regret coming here. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is one of the best restaurants in Central Islip.Try their "Asopao de camarones" (Shrimp Stew), or their " Cazuela de mariscos" ( It has shrimp, crab, lobster, calamares, clams), oh dear it was good!“

“The food here is consistently good. Parking in the lot these days is utter garbage because of the patio dining (NOT dissing them for doing this, everyone is trying their best during Covid times). Try to park on the streets nearby and order togo if you can. We havent tried the soup noodles to go BUT their bosam is TO DIE FOR and we get the medium to split all the time. Its perfect for two people and comes with a delicious assortment of banchan.“

“Very intense . highly recommend 9 holes and some single malt scotches here. Lauren set me up with the Voodoo IPAs . Feb golf at x golf ⛳️ works for me Prost 🍺🍺🍺“

“Great staff! Hannah makes a great margarita!“

“I’d like to say and point out a server/bartender that works here at this Applebee’s in Brentwood. Each and every time I come here this employee consistently gives me and other customers I’ve seen dine here some of the best service and attitude imaginable. I don’t know what his secret is, but I love coming through those doors and seeing that his big built body is on the clock. Every other server/bartender I’ve had has been great, but then here comes Diego taking it to another level.

Especially the positive attitude that I see him giving his coworkers as well. Lord forgive me, but I would love to be working with this man because it’s one thing to be kind and respectful to your customers, but another to be that same way with your coworkers. Especially with the two hostesses that I usually see when I come in on the weekends, the curly-haired boy with the glasses and the nice girl with the curly hair. They’re always so welcoming, and Diego fits right in with them.

Nothing but professional, nothing but friendly that man is. I hope he gets recognized for the way he treats his customers and the people working around him. Shout out to everybody else in this Applebee’s for their immaculate service, INCLUDING DIEGO, because that man deserves his flowers too.“

“good specials friendly staff, but they DO NOT honor the website specials :(“

“A true local sports bar with small-town vibes, cold beers, and TVs always tuned to the game — but don’t let the no-frills atmosphere fool you. This might be the best pub food on Long Island, and that’s a hill worth dying on.

The brisket sandwich is smoky and stacked, the Philly cheesesteak hits all the greasy, glorious notes you want… but let’s be clear: the pastrami sandwich is the main event. It’s piled high, ridiculously flavorful, and good enough to make you forget whatever team you’re rooting for is probably losing.

Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t expect anything fancy — just great food, strong local energy, and zero pretension. This is the kind of place that turns first-timers into regulars.“

“I became a regular diner to Riley’s a couple of years ago. Gotta tell ya, the food is as good as any high restaurant I eat at and I dine out a lot. Fun, delicious, quality menu that has never once disappointed on any item, ever. Yes it is mostly basic pub food but so are 50% of the restaurants on Long Island now and Fibbers is perfect and priced more than fair. Can’t remember the servers but the two ladies are always right there, refills on drinks, food on time and always with a smile regardless how busy they are. Come back soon guys! You are the best of EI“
