The Cesar salad was great, a touch of lemon zest and crispy lettuce.

The meatballs were high quality and this is coming from a self proclaimed meatball master.

This place is an absolute MUST!“

“Dinner was great. When the waiter came to take our order we wanted to just order the appetizers and then continue to figure out what we wanted for dinner and we were told we had to place the entire order together. We have been here many times and never had to do that before so we had to quickly figure out our meal so we could get some food. The food is always good we were a party of five. We hope they change the way they require the entire order together be placed.“

“Franina's Restaurant, one of the premier Italian eateries on Long Island, offers consistently fresh, high-quality cuisine and attentive, friendly service.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the impeccable service and care your entire team provided during the recent funeral of my brother, Steven Blair. On what was undoubtedly a difficult day, your professionalism and attentiveness stood out, creating an environment that allowed our family to come together in remembrance and support.

I would especially like to commend Sean for the exceptional management of the logistics and preparation. The quality of the food and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and it sincerely exceeded our expectations. Your efforts contributed greatly to making a solemn occasion feel warm and inviting, allowing us to focus on celebrating Steven's life.

“We came here for weekday lunch. Our server Emily was amazing! She was exceptionally personable and communicated with us about delays in the kitchen since the restaurant was serving a large party. She continued to check up on us and was very sweet. Eggplant rollatini and cheesy garlic bread were delicious appetizers. For entrees, we had the penne alla vodka (portion was a bit smaller than expected) as well as the chicken marsala, chicken parm, and arugula pie, which were all good. This place is a bit pricy but it is an upper/mid range Italian restaurant. The actual dining area is cozy and intimate. They have a cute bar area upon walking in. Parking lot is a bit cramped but doable. We had a great time!“
