50 Best American Restaurants near Commack

“Very nice people and good food.“

“Our experience with Jocelyn on Aug 30th was so good it was worthy of a review. Very rarely do we come across an employee at a fast casual restaurant that makes our experience amazing. She was extremely busy but yet she still had a big smile, spoke beautifully, gave us her full attention and treated us with respect. She did not give us an attitude when we asked for an item to be subbed out on a burger and multitasked quickly and effectively while putting orders together. Before we left, we noticed they had a seasonal pumpkin shake that sounded interesting. We asked if we could try it to see if we liked it. We did not know it wasn't pre-made. She quickly, happily, shifted gears and made a small sample from scratch. Most people would not have bothered as that was a lot of work to do (and clean up). We were very impressed and grateful. She deserves recognition as we left there with good feelings and a desire to have that delicious shake. We called the store and expressed our impressions with the assistant manger. We hope it gets back to her and that she gets the credit she deserves (hopefully a raise).

The only reason I didn't give the food 4 stars was that the fries were not fully cooked and soggy.“

“Great consistent food. Priced very fairly. Great atmosphere. Enjoy seeing Todd O and Richie. It's like the 90s and Sprats. We are just missing Danny S.“

“Had dinner at Jackson’s with a friend last night. Service was great, friendly, attentive but not annoying. Really comfortable vibe. We had the Thursday special, sandwich with two sides. We couldn’t decide on what to get so we split the blackened chicken and the blackened tuna. We both got Mac and cheese (get it). I got a salad and was super pleased that I was able to pick which one, not just a standard house/Caesar choice. My friend got the soups of the day that was loaded potato. She said it was awesome. I started with my half of tuna. It was fantastic! Cooked perfectly. Spicy slaw (not super spicy, just pleasantly flavorful). It was soooo good. It was also sooooo big. My half of a sandwich was enough for dinner. Going to have the chicken for lunch. In summation, great food, awesome service, fantastic vibe. Bonus, each night has a cool theme or special. Looking forward to trying trivia night on Wednesday!“

“Had lunch with my girlfriend yesterday and the food was incredible! Service was fast and professional and the restaurant was clean! Would highly recommend“

“We came to this location and had a great experience! Our waiter was Vinnie. He was amazing! He introduced himself as soon as we sat down. He was very attentive and responsive. His manager John seems like a great leader because we witnessed him pitching in as good leaders should. Excellent job!“

“Best burgers.“

“I’m writing this review not because it’s family on my Dad’s side that owns the place, but because I have been going to this Ihop since I was a young kid in the late 1980s. Andy and Ellen are phenomenal human beings and really go out of their way to ensure their customers and staff are super happy. The food quality is always top-notch. This is not fast food despite what some people claim.

I frequent here biweekly with friends for breakfast, and I’m never disappointed.

(The guy in the picture is a dear friend of mine.)“

“The best. No other pizzeria in the area can compare!“

“The only thing missing here are the customers. Breakfast is better than any diner around. Spread the word…“

“I just had another amazing lunch at Zest. The portions are VERY generous and the food is always amazing. The chef is a culinary artist.“

“I did a take out order at the East Islip location. The food was good but the super melts do not seem to have much meat on them like they use to. If the prices are going up with less portions that’s going to be a problem for Friendly’s. I would hate to see them go out of business because I love Friendlys too!!“

“Beautiful al fresco dining in the back of this restaurant Started with the Greek salad and octopus appetizers which were great and plentiful! I had the scallops which were delicious The donuts were just the right amount of dessert for the four of us and the pistachio gelato was fantastic!!! Never disappointed at Red! Thanks again Nino and staff! Amy H“

“Our family enjoyed a birthday dinner at this beautiful restaurant. Our waiter was so pleasant and accommodating. He was very knowledgeable about the ingredients, especially since we had some allergies at the table. The food was spectacular! The strawberry salad was a delicious and fresh way to start my decadent courses. The salmon was divine, accompanied by a heavenly risotto. I know how challenging it is to make a good risotto, and they absolutely nailed it. The chocolate flourless Nutella cake was the perfect ending to an amazing meal. Thank you for making this birthday so special!💕“

“just awesome thats all!!! look up awesomes definition ..Mundays is Awesome !!!“

“Had the best private party experience! We booked my sister's 30th surprise party this past weekend and the staff was excellent and accommodating as well as the event coordinators we were in contact with prior to the event. I highly recommend booking a party here!“

“The eggplant was delicious“

“My wife and I had dinner here at Applebee's in Brentwood. The waitress Val was horrible no personality, only came to us to get our order and pay the bill. We will not be returning here to eat ever. Beware everyone of Val no professional skills. In the wrong field of service.“

“Love this bar so much. My friends and I go there all the time after our gigs, and the server Joanne always takes such good care of us. The food is delicious, the vibes are cozy, and everything is super clean. A great place to have a drink or bring your loved ones!

Vegetarian options: Not a veg heavy menu, but I'm sure if you asked for options they would make something for you. It's just that kind of place.

Parking: Parking can be tough, especially on the weekends.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly“

“Amazing food and service ! So glad I finally tried it . Took my family there for New Year’s Eve. It was perfect. Looking forward to going back.“

“The initial bartender was very slow to acknowledge me at the bar - there were only four of us customers at the bar total, so it's not like I was lost in a sea of people. The shift change brought better service. All in all, it was everything I expected from a TGIF. I'd go back.“

“Everything from the atmosphere to the server Nick to the drinks the hamburgers to the most awesome chocolate chip cookies was excellent.“

“Great time as usual great service.Nancy took care my friends and I see was great.New tables and chairs are a big hit.“

“Darin, the owner is a very nice lady. I discovered this place in 2021 when the local police officer said they have the best food in town, especially the best burger.

As a SAIL or I choose to come to the town dock from time to time to get some things in town that are very convenient. Nick behind the bar Megan Tiffany are all very personable and quick to serve.

I foolishly has as old man walked out the door without paying my bill on a Tuesday. I had come back and paid with cash on Wednesday and Thursday Daren the owner connected with me to make sure I knew I totally forgot. She could not have been any nicer!“

“Love this place!!! Decorated beyond for every holiday, great food and excellent service. My daughter’s compliments to the chef!!!! 🌹💞💌“

“The service and food was excellent.“

“We had dinner there tonight for the first time and it will not be our last. Absolutely adorable back room ambiance and both the food and the service were fantastic! Bella was our waitress and she was outstanding. Patient, extremely knowledgeable and helped us explaining many menu items helping us make our selections. The food was sooooo good. Homemade cornbread to die for. I would give the truffle macaroni and cheese was a 10!!! The garlic Parmesan wings delicious and also the spinach and artichoke pizzetta. We had white sangria that was awesome as well as apple crumb pie Ala mode. Every single item was really honestly so delicious!!!! We enjoyed our experience and will definite back again!“

“Loved it!! John the bartender was amazing!“

“A great establishment with outstanding customer service. Hands on operation with a great menu. Nice tables and nice bar.“

“Went on a Tuesday night which happened to be Karaoke night. It was a fun evening with a full house of people of all ages. I had the Lobster Bisque (excellent) and the fried clams, also good. I intend to make it a regular stop. It is outdoor dining only.“

“Had dinner yesterday at Lily’s ate Al Fresco, fantastic evening. From the moment we walked in the door the hostess Jen was so accommodating and pleasant to our server Anj (sp) the dinner could not have been better. Mind you the Village of Babylon was hosting their THURSDAY BLOCK PARTY SERIES so the village and Lily were packed but yet we felt valued as customers, our server never missed a beat tremendous. Of of the food and drinks are always outstanding, who knew you can get great empanadas at an Irish restaurant, well take it from me, OUTSTANDING.
If you’ve never been you owe to yourself to give Lily’s a shot, I highly recommend it.
Niall, you and your team are first rate!
Also, a special shout out to Lisa, , thanks for the umbrella and welcome back you always do a great job!“

““The food is absolutely outstanding, the service is incredible, and Chef Mike is one of a kind. Do yourself a favor — if you’re in the area, stop in. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“This was an AMAZING dinner tonight. Kansas City Pulled Pork is the BEST! Totally packed with lean BBQ covered tender pork! Chicken fingers and sweet potato fries, Fried Mozz and Fried Ravioli.....All Amazing!! Our New Favorite Place for a meal in Huntington!!! Highly Recommended!!😁❤️“

“Our waitress, Jasmine, was so personable and gave great friendly service! The oriental chicken salad had lots of lettuce and with less cabbage filler than seems to be usually served with crispy chicken. It was a pleasure to have lunch there today!“

“I go here all the time with my friends we enjoy the place the workers are nice and positive and very fun to talk to and very out going. Michelle is the best one the food here is also amazing I love their waffle fries and the boneless wings.“

“I was invited here for a dinner by our Boss who is also an Honourable member of this club. This is place is truly beautiful. Nice water-view! Inside of the place is even more beautiful! Nicely decorated and very Private place! The food was delicious! I’ve tried their fried Calamari and crab cake. One of the best appetizers I’ve ever had! Their Grilled Salmon for the entrées is out of the world! Highly recommended place for dinner! If you know someone who’s the member of this club, try this place out! You won’t regret!“

“Large amounts great food !!“

“I just need to shout out Deli Zone b/c I've been coming here a few years and I always enjoy it. Everything is priced well, and the food is solid. Nothing fancy, just hearty and filling. I'm obsessed with their healthy breakfast wraps. My favorite is the Energy breakfast wrap. Just bomb. I stop in for breakfast and lunch often and usually order breakfast wraps and sandwiches. Service is always great...lovely ladies at the counter. Give them a shot!“

“Stopped in to kill time while my phone was being repaired. I had the steak sandwich that was unbelievably delicious, couple bloody Mary’s which were incredible.
The staff greeted you with smiles and were very friendly.
And from 10am-5pm is happy hour so certain drinks are two for one which you cannot beat.
I can’t wait to try the entire menu :-)“

“One of my Favorite Breakfast places. The food is always amazing, the service and staff are always friendly and, there is just this great welcoming, somewhat nostalgic atmosphere that makes me excited to go back as soon as I leave. Highly recommend!“

“Hight quality food and good atmosphere, I enjoyed my meal then happened to see the owner Opie. He gave me an 800$ Bottle of Champagne, I couldn't frickin believe it! I've heard of others getting a meal in the House just for saying an unknown phrase. Crazy.“

“The tasty food options are always changing, with some favorite staples remaining. The cocktails are also seasonal, which I love. Ambience is cozy and quirky. They're in between locations right now so no liquor license, but they let us know ahead of time and we were more than happy to BYOB (and in my case a premixed Manhattan—they provided me with a coupe glass and ice to shake my cocktail). Looking forward to checking them out on Main Street soon.“

“On June 1, 2025, my mother and I checked in about 4:30. They had a table for two available. We ordered the Porterhouse for two (MR), Brussel sprouts and mushrooms. DELICIOUS. The service (server Kelly) was top-notch. Quality high-end food in a comfortable atmosphere. The next time we're in Huntington, we will dine again. Thanks. The view was amazing too.“

“Birdie Bar was a wonderful experience with great vibes, fabulous drinks made with exceptional bartenders. Trendy and the staff and food were excellent…“

“We celebrated our anniversary at Bijou in Melville last weekend & it was our first time dining there. I was impressed that they have the kitchen behind a glass wall so that you can see just how clean they keep it! Our waitress was excellent, gave us some great suggestions & was all around a very attentive server. We started with drinks. I had the Lychee Martini & he had a drink called The Beckoning Cat. I LOVED the Martini & he said his drink was good but not his favorite. It was a Sunday night so we each only had 1 drink. Next we had an appetizer. We got the Fried Chicken Bao Buns. I was a little disappointed that it came with 3.... since that made it hard to split between the 2 of us... but I ended up having 2 and he had 1 because he could see how much I enjoyed the first one. They are DELICIOUS - the buns were pillow soft and the chicken was cooked perfectly crunchy, and they also had pickled onion & carrot on them. Next I had the the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice & the Blue Fin Toro roll. The crispy rice has Spicy Tuna, avocado, jalapeno, tobiko, wasabi cream & sweet soy (recommended by our server) which was delicious & just enough to fill me up along with the sushi roll. The Blue Fin Toro Roll has mango, cucumber, tobiko, wasabi mayo, chutoro, scallion, yuzu miso & tempura crunch - MIND BLOWINGLY DELICIOUS!! This was the BEST Sushi Roll I have ever eaten in my entire life!! He had the Marinated Wagyu Skirt Steak, which comes with shisho chimichurri & soy demi glace, and a side of Loaded Roast Potatoes. I forgot to take a picture... whoops! I tasted both & they were also delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly and we both enjoyed the marinade quite a bit. The potatoes were also very good, though nothing to go crazy for. Finally, our waitress asked if we wanted to order desert but we were both too full, so we decided to pass even though there were a few I did want to try. Then she came out with a fresh berry tart with a sparkler as an anniversary surprise!! Well, I had just enough room for that & it was also delicious!! All in all, a great experience and we will be returning in the future, for sure!!“

“We went with coupon for Big Salad and added another and 2 soups. Was really good. Really enjoyed the Tortilla Tomato soup, tasty and hearty. Our server Tom was courteous and excellent. Got there in time for Bourbon Happy Hour drinks that were smoked and delish.“

“Very nice place no music so you can focus on conversations with your family and friends. Very good and very nice service. You get your food quickly. Wear an AC/DC shirt all of the workers will compliment you and it’s just very nice place. Newly redone I believe because it’s very nice a modern. Very nice atmosphere and the food was delicious.“

“Salted is our go to in the village, we live up the street & are frequent customers.. Service this time was slow, could definitely tell they were understaffed. It took several requests to get water & even when we did get it, they only brought us 1 which wasn't even even enough to fill all our glasses! We ordered a Cos Amigos regular margarita & it came w/ salt & pepper on it?! I really don't like pepper but it was too difficult to get anyone to change it so we wiped it off. We also had a glass of wine & the pour was super small... I was there the previous Thurs for lunch & all our glasses had a generous pour, which is the usual case so was surprised by this. Food was great as usual.“

“We just had our daughter’s Sweet 16 party at Butterfields, and it could not have been better! All our guests loved the delicious food and the lovely decor. The entire staff was friendly, accommodating, and professional. Highly recommend!“
