“We tried brunch here for the first time because the menu looked good , and everything was delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice with nice pillows and comfortable seats. The menu for brunch had so many good options I changed my mind 3 times, but was talked into the Gruyère burger with an egg on it. It ended up being one of the best burgers I have had in a long time. The fries were good too. Everyone was very happy with their meals . The drinks were good and the tres leches bread pudding was out of this world.Our waitress was amazing she was helpful and extremely nice.Overall we had an amazing experience and will definitely be back to try some other options on the menu.“
“Had a beautiful table by the window. Cali and Drew did a beautiful job. Food was delicious. It was a perfect Easter dinner. Food, drinks and dessert was delicious.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes I would say this is a wheelchair accessible. Double doors,ground level. There was a couple of people in wheelchairs when I was there.“
“Kayla was our server, and supplied the vibe. She recommended the Speck pizza with hot honey, and that pizza changed my life. So damn good! I’m not kidding when I say that I loved it so much I ordered another one to go, to enjoy later that night. That smoked mozzarella ?. The Gnocchi was awesome and they even offer it in a bread bowl! The Italian sodas are also good, if you love natural ginger flavor, the apple ginger one for sure hits.“
“What a fun concept! This was so a fun and unique experience! Had to solve a riddle to get into the secret entrance inside of an ice cream shop! The drinks and staff were fabulous. We were able to hear live music in this cozy basement speakeasy! True history as well!Kid-friendliness: This is a bar in a small basement space. I would not recommend kids. I'm not sure if they are permitted. Get a sitter and go check it out!“
“Delicious Cuban food and service! We had the smoked pork chops, boiled yucca, moros, black beans, oxtail, fried grouper, flounder in garlic sauce, and a salad. We also got ham croquettes and the extremes platter (Cuban antipasto) as an app. We cleaned almost everything on our plates due to how good it was, and also had some flan for dessert and churros and tres leches. The drinks were good and nicely spiked, we all liked the hurricane, mojito, and iced tea. Price was not bad for all that we had. Very good and will come back :)“
“Great experience and surprise! I loved my food choices recommended by one of the owners who is a ray of sunshine! Scrumptious warm baked bread with a spicy guava sauce! Shrimp Stroganoff with mushrooms rice and stick potatoes was delicious! Yucca fries were amazing. Cannot wait to come back!“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at IMC restaurant, and I must say, it was an experience beyond compare. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that set the tone for the evening. The ambiance was inviting, with a perfect blend of elegance and comfort.But it was the food that truly stole the show. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and artfully presented. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite was a delight for the senses. The culinary team at IMC has truly mastered the art of gastronomy.Moreover, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our dining experience was perfect.Overall, I cannot recommend IMC restaurant highly enough. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving an extraordinary meal, IMC is the place to be. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.“
“This is the 2nd time I've visited MaBella, and it was another delightful experience! The chicken franchise was delicious, as was the warm bread. The service is impeccable, the water glasses are quickly refilled, and the servers are friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We split dessert, and the NY Cheesecake was wonderful, as was the Affogato! We'll be back!“
“Monday through Thursday 3:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. full bar full menu even longer on like Friday and Saturday or something like that. Sunday might be like an early night I think. But nobody's open like they are. There's a crowd. There's ladies this dudes I mean I guess if that's what you're into hahaha lol. Great “
“I had my husband's 40th birthday at Shanahan's and everything was amazing. Deana was great to work with in terms of setting up the party and planning the menu. She was super helpful and answered all my questions throughout the process. The day of the party the space was set up and ready when I got there and Deana helped me put out the decorations and balloons before the guests arrived. Deana and her staff were friendly and attentive the entire time during the party. The food was delicious and plentiful for the party size. I would highly recommend having a party here. It was such a great evening and everyone enjoyed themselves.“
“Great fried chicken had a wings/thighs combo and chicken sandwich. Spicy is excellent. Did 50/50 with spicy regular for another meal. Also.had fries, rice, broccoli all.very good. Place was really nice inside too. Good bar and restaurant. Parking ain't great but food more than makes up for it.“
“Went to Katie's of Smithtown about a month or so ago to see my cousins boyfriends band. The place is really tiny, and the stage took up a good chunk of the room. They had Guinness and maybe one other beer I recognized but other than that there were newer beers. At least new to me. The service was good. Even though it was crowded with for the band, the bartenders got my beer out in just a few minutes. The bathrooms were at the other side of the stage, and the woman's bathroom was tucked back almost behind the stage, which was a bit annoying to get to“
“We hadn't been to Palmers in a while so it was our first time back in over a year. The food and waitress were excellent. A lot of people working hard. The only negatives were it got very noisy around 7:00 on Saturday and the one young hostess was not very personable. She didn't greet us when we came in at all.“
“Great food, great service and cozy atmosphere!!! Love that place! We had such a nice evening with friends! Music is not too loud so you have have. Lovely conversation with your guests. Food is fresh and delicious. And also my Allagash White beer came nice and cold in a frosty glass! We'll be back again soon!“
“New favorite spot!Came for breakfast here and loved everything about it!Service was excellent! Our waitress was lovely and helped us decide what we were having. the menu has staples and not so average but delicious options- win! Even the fruit was so so sweet!Had the ricotta hot honey sourdough with fresh blue berries and omelets that were cooked to perfection.AND great music! We will be back for sure!“
“Bartender Dara was very nice and quick. 3 buck domestic and imported tap beer happy hour in small cups. Very tiny menu. I was there for an impromptu stand up comedy night. This bar has potential to be something more but falls short and is classified as a dive bar. However if you're looking for a nicely appointed dive bar, (which I enjoy) this is for you!“
“Honestly, I went to this place two weekends in a row and was pleasantly surprised with how yummy it was. I love that I was able to order everything on lettuce wraps. Kung Pow chicken spicy, caramelized Brussels sprouts, and Vietnamese shrimp were among my favorites. I honestly wouldn’t recommend ordering the salsa here. It’s a little affected. One of my friends mentioned that it looked like alla-vodka sauce, and I agree he wasn’t wrong.“
“Amazing restaurant whether it's with friends or family! One of my best friends from college raved about this restaurant and it's easily a hidden gem! You wouldn't normally expect to have a Greek-Mexican fusion restaurant but this one is amazing! I highly recommend getting their stuffed poblano peppers (stuffed with Cauliflower as I'm vegetarian) - 11/10! They even have mocktails and I recommend the mango mule - which I absolutely loved! Will definitely be back here, but given today was Saturday, the restaurant was busy so you couldn't hear the conversation, but food and service are top notch! Also...Food Network...get here ASAP!“
“Recently held a surprise 60th birthday party for my mother in-law and honestly had a great experience. I’ve been a regular patron of Goldy’s for since their rebirth; however, recently I inquired about their party services. The process was simple. Even doing homework, price-wise they were competitive with the going rate per person.The staff was tremendous in making the event a hit! They were accommodating, attentive - overall made the experience a pleasure! Again, I would highly recommend and will continue to frequent Goldy’s as a regular patron!“
“Went here on a Tuesday night with a group of 8. The food was great and the service was on point . Our waitress was attentive and polite. All the food was cooked correctly and tasted awesome. This was the second time here and won't be the last for sure !“
“Last night my fiancé and I had our rehearsal dinner at the Victorian Room. From start to finish, Gina the owner was absolutely amazing ! The room is so beautifully decorated and cozy . The food was phenomenal , tasted like a home cooked meal ! The service was impeccable and professional from not only herself but her staff as well. All of the desserts were made by Gina and they were beyond delicious especially the hot donuts and rainbow cookies .. OMG! This was such a special night of celebration and we cannot thank you enough for making it so memorable for us and our family /friends. I cannot wait to plan the next party which will definitely be at the Victorian Room . We love you Gina and staff !!!!!! ❤️? xo“
“This is a great place and our server was fantastic, helpful and right on top of things. Very nice and large menu. Lots of tasty looking sandwiches and burgers. Really appreciated the huge beer menu and some not so well known beers. I had a Granola Brown Ale from Black Hog in CT. We started with the Crispy Cauliflower app in the chili sauce. It was excellent. My wife had the Spaghetti Squash with the pesto sauce. It was very good, on the smaller size, but a nice plate. I ordered one of the St. Patrick's specials, Corned Beef, Cabbage and potato entree. I was disappointed in the meal. While the corned beef was pretty good, the potatoes and the cabbage were undercooked and hard. took a lot away from the meal.Definitely will try the place again as the vibe and the service was first rate.“
“Came in for an open jam session, first time here. Haven’t been here in years. This place has changed so much for the better! Comfortable, almost homey vibe. Great fresh tasting food, and drinks. Amazing service as well. We were always checked on by staff. They have a cocktail menu too. Just wish they had a larger variety of wine, but spoke with maybe the manager/owner and he said he will be adding that as he is finishing renovations. Will definitely be back!“
“Recently went here for a date night with friends. This place is tucked away off the beaten place but truly a hidden gem. Our food was delicious, we had some appetizers which we loved. Lobster roll was to die for. Tacos were flavorful. And drinks were AWESOME!! Live music during dinner was a plus. Can't wait to visit during the warmer months.“
“This place is outstanding. The drinks, the entrees , and most importantly the staff is incredible. Everything we had is delicious especially their espresso martinis & their margaritas. Great place to go to! The service is so good especially Olvin! He is so nice and funny. Honestly made the experience better! Just amazing, would recommend to everyone!“
“Sandbar is reminiscent of so many beautiful seaside venues. The interior design does match the restaurant's namesake and it was pleasant to the eye. Even the bar area looked inviting. I could see myself stopping by to watch a game.As for the food, my friend and I shared the mussels to start. Go ahead and dip some bread into the sauce of the dish. It'll change your life. We had the chickpea fries as well but I wasn't a fan of those. Our main dishes included the Pappardelle Bolognese and the Branzino. Both seemed expertly crafted. I have no complaints there. They seem to have a solid wine collection so don't worry about finding the right libation to add to your dinner.There were some slight service glitches and some of the staff seemed less than warm, but that could've been a fluke or my perception. Don't let that deter you. I would come back for sure!“
“Stopped in a handful of times and have never had a bad experience. Friendly group of regulars, attentive bartenders, and everything you want to drink! There’s bar games for everyone to enjoy, and they even have live music from time to time. If you’re in the area I’d give it a shot.“
“Perfect place to go to on any day, although the game atmosphere on the weekends is a party; crowded but not overcrowded and everyone is friendly. During the week it is quieter and easy to get a table. The servers know their jobs well and are attentive when you need it without overdoing it.The menu has a different selection from what I expected. There is delicious beer cheese soup, thinly sliced reuben sandwiches with sauerkraut and dressing, various salads such as fantasia salmon salad, buffalo wings, calamari, quesadillas and many more selections including a brunch on Sundays. I don't give 5 stars on food unless it is incredibly special, but this place deserves a very high 4 stars not only for the food but for the quick order taking and serving. Pricing is average unless you are a big drinker; if you are drinking, there are a huge variety of beers and other alcoholic drinks.There are about 50 live streaming tv's on every wall, including on the outside wall if you prefer to eat outdoors.Great place to go to with friends and family. Changing Times Pub has to be tried out!Parking: There are parking spaces all along the front and back of Changing Times, but there is also a large lot right next to the small group of connected stores that this pub is a part of.“
“Excellent experience all around!The food was cooked perfectly, the drinks are great too! Right now during the Christmas season, they are decorated with wreaths and right outside is Wall Street (the closed off road with the large decorated tree, Christmas music, Santa)What we ate:Guinness Pot Roast(Outstanding comfort dish, so tender, flavorful)Finnegan Burger(Juicy, thick, cooked perfectly)Buttermilk Crispy Chicken Sandwich(Crispy, seasoned nicely, chicken cooked just right)This is a small Irish pub, there's tables(small and large), and a bar to sit at as well. They have a large assortment of beers (we had Stella and Corona), and cocktails(I had the Hot Chocolate Martini, tasted like an adult Yoohoo).Service was excellent as well, everyone is super friendly, everything came out quickly, and was cooked perfectly (even with a full house).“
“My 1st time here after hearing it was worth trying this spot. Came for brunch on Sat & was part of a group of 6. Our waitress was great! Very knowledgeable about the menu & was kind enough to take pics for us & even found 1 person from the group's missing earring back.Everyone totally enjoyed their meal. I had the brushetta avocado toast w/eggs!! Delicious ?Will definitely be returning.“
“I have been coming to the Little Lounge for over 15 years. I have established friendships and even consider the staff and customers as my family. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. The drinks are great and the prices are just right. The staff is personable and attentive to all customers and provide excellent customer service! Highly recommend for people to give it a try. You won't be disappointed. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner!“

“Although they have food, I've yet to try it, as we usually only stop by on the way home for one last drink and/or coffee after BBQing on the beach. The service is always very personable, and my boyfriend absolutely loves this place; he talked about the Gilgo Inn all throughout the off-season when we first met before I finally got the chance to visit with him.They're cash only, but they have an ATM ($3 service fee). All the seating is outside, but there's a TV inside as well as framed photos of how the place used to look, including some shots of it submerged in water following a storm some years back.The coffee is good, and the drinks are alright and won't break the bank. I think the cocktails were around $10 apiece. There are proper bathrooms across the parking lot, too.“
“My partner and I celebrated our anniversary and it couldn't have been better! Great food and drinks, with a quiet space in the back to get away from the more noisy bar at the front of the restaurant. The food was great for sharing, definitely a great experience!“
“Came here with my wife for karaoke on a Friday and we had a lot of fun. Sang a couple songs and sang along with the other folks singing. They had a solid crew of locals and regulars who come just for karaoke and the regular bar crowd. Everyone was very supportive and into it. The bartender was very nice and so was the two people running the karaoke. If you want to let loose and sing some music in a supportive, judgement free atmosphere then I highly recommend the neighborhood tavern in Farmingdale.“
“Absolutely awesome Dead bar. The bar itself is made of tons of ticket stubs and the live music on the weekends is awesome. Great people, and the owner Beau is super welcoming. It was our first time and they made us feel like locals - a must go for jam band lovers.“
“The bartender was very friendly and helpful. She was attentive to everyone.I thought I was going to walk into run down, hole in the wall type of bar. I was so wrong! This bar is very cozy and modernly decorated. Even the pool table is in great condition.I highly recommend JJ's Tavern if you are looking for a place to unwind and have some laughs!“
“JTI's is thee BEST! I highly recommend this place! Nick and team helped us host a luncheon after my grandmothers funeral. They were incredibly easy to work with, extremely helpful, and always responsive. Their customer service is second to none and the food is consistently outstanding, exceeding my expectations every time.“
“A very nice place to very good experience staff very professional The food is wonderful it's a great experience a good place to eat For some people it's an experience for other people it's enjoyment of enjoying a place like this because they are very professional and they make sure that you are taking care of properly with the food and satisfaction of just enjoying the place in general It is a good experience and a nice place to go for a bite to eat“
“A small, local bar with a big personality. My companion and I stopped by on a Sunday for the live music. The music was loud and good. Service was good thanks to the overly attentive bartender. We quickly received our drinks. The food? Well, it too a lonnnnng time, but the bartender was apologetic and kept providing us with updates.I ordered a cheeseburger with sweet potato fries and my companion ordered the shrimp tacos. Everything was flavorful and the burger patty was thick and had an excellent char. I would order it again.“
“My husband and I love to eat. Tonight we branched out and tried Sea Levels. We are now loyal customers. We cannot wait to come back. Starting with the bread basket, every bite of food was stunning. The duck cakes were unforgettable— we seriously considered ordering them again for dessert. The seafood was so fresh, it still tasted effortlessly of the sea, while wallowing in sauces and gravy unlike any others. The desserts (my husband got the flourless cake, I got the apple crumble with Coyle’s Mississippi Mud Pie ice cream) were delicious. The service was excellent, our server Jackie was knowledgeable and friendly. What a gem, what a meal, we are so grateful. If you’ve never been, do yourself a favor and try it out.“
“A great local getaway! A weekend visit or on your weekday lunch break... drive down, eat your lunch while enjoying the cool breeze and pretty waves. Bring the kids to enjoy the playground area. Cute Tiki Bar/Restaurant, Outdoor Deck, Outdoor Showers and Plenty of Seating, Tables, Benches and Gazebo for a shady retreat. Stop by and take a look if you're in the Islip area, just off downtown Main Street, South all the way to the end.“
“I don't say this too often, but Ruby Soho's is perfection! From the staff being awesome, Chris and Caitlin ((hope that's the way she spells it)) were beyond nice and professional. Always checking to see if our glasses needed to be filled or just seeing if we were still vibing. The music played is my type of tunes. Punk, Rock, and Emo... How could you go wrong?? Also the deco is raw, edgy and yet still welcoming. Surly a place you could chill for hours. They have a wide selection of beers on tap, and specialty drinks. And the food.. The food is of 5star quality. The shredded beef taco was seriously one of the best tacos I have ever had the pleasure of eating and the fried pickled jalapeños were surprisingly amazing. Far beyond what I expected... If you're in the area, I 100% say stop on in! You won't be disappointed!!“
“It's a great home town place to come sit drink and have something to eat. The staff was welcoming and friendly, ready to offer an opinion of what to order. Good for a couple or date night. If you don't mind, the bar like atmosphere. It's very clean but could use a little refresh.“
“My mom and I came to eat breakfast as it was recommended to us by a friend. I had huevos pericos con arepa y queso and it was delicious. My mom had the soup of the day and she said it was delicious & perfect for the cold weather. The portion are pretty big so the pricing seems fair. Although, it did seem a little pricey but everything in NY is. It nicely decorated inside. The service was great, everyone was super nice. All in all, had a great experience and will definitely come back again!“
“Obsessed with updating my reviews lately, so here's another one for you. The Local has my heart and it's been a go to place to take friends and family when their in the area and back on LI. As my friend who I lunched with on Saturday said "it has a Queensy vibe" which it totally does, only you will see by the interior decor, it's proud to be on LI and I'm so happy by that. Custom subway signs referring to LI spots is what provides the decor for this place along with chalkboards showcasing the beer list. These days, when I want a beer, I don't look at the list anymore. I tell the staff what I like (usually something on the citrusy side) and I go with it. This is exactly what I did and our server did not steer us wrong. Do I know what beer I had, no...But was she spot on in her recommendation? Yes, she was! Food menu is always changing here, another thing I love, so that Cuban stuffed pretzel was a pleasant surprise when I saw it featured. We jumped at that. As you know I'm a sucker for a special and a French dip was on their special menu. I went for it and never looked back. The meat was so flavorful and the ratio of meat to cheese was perfect. The bread had the right amount of crunch and I hit it with the Old Bay fries and it's the perfect meal. Their sauces are great too, ask for roasted garlic ourthe chipotle aioli on the side. They pair amazing with any of their fries. This place really does get better each time I go. I always opt for a sandwich/burger but I'm sure anything on this menu is dynamite. Brunch is solid too.“
“I live in Brooklyn, NY. However, periodically I will drive 55 minutes just to eat at Nautilus Diner. The food is always delicious, and the service is great. The apple crumb cheesecake is an absolute must. I always feel right at home whenever I'm there.“
“Had a good time just vibing with friends. As it is covid season, I noticed the wonderful effort of the staff to keep the social distancing practice. There were bottles of hand sanitizers everywhere! The bar service was amazing! Cocktails were delicious! All around good time. I will be back!“
“Just had my sister's 70th surprise birthday here with 50 guests. Fantastic interior completely new interior open space with second floor dance lounge. Service and food were great. The owner has been in the bar - restaurant business for over 50 years in this area. Down the block from Long Island Railroad.“
