“This great Italian restaurant tucked away in an East Norwich shopping center serves up great Italian cuisine with a flair! The service here is nothing short of excellent, as is the sophisticated and cozy atmosphere. It's definitely one of the two or three best Italian restaurants I've ever eaten in.“
“La Pizzetta is tastefully decorated & kept immaculate! Efrain did an exceptional job at seating us at a most comfortable booth, was patient, knowledgeable & clearly explained dishes. Special requests were pleasantly accommodated. Water glasses were immediately filled without having to request. Outstanding garlic knots & Pizzette Margherita Pizza. Incredible specials! Stuffed baby eggplant & Brussel sprouts oreganata were mouth watering appetizers. Split pea soup was my daughter’s favorite & my husband liked the minestrone soup . Boneless chicken fantasia with asparagus, broccoli and portobello shatake mushrooms was phenomenal and enough for my husband & I to split. My husband’s cappuccino was fantastic! The orange creamsicle, lemon sorbet & Oreo ice cream cake that my daughters & I had for dessert were out of this world! Everything was beautifully prepared, generously portioned, cooked to perfection and served quickly. A container for leftovers & receipt were immediately brought to our table. Dining in at La Pizzetta has always been a truly special treat & most memorable family tradition for decades and brings my family & I so much happiness that we will forever cherish. Can’t wait to return soon and try other enticing meals. Highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: Fine dining in a warm & cozy environment with food choices for all ages with most professional, efficient & genuinely varing & friendly employees!“
“If you want a real dining experience versus just a meal, this is the restaurant for you! Attentive service with a list of specials that are a menu all on its own! The dishes are presented beautifully. Every bite sends your tastbuds into a world of pure delight. We will SO be coming back! Thank you JT, Chef and staff for a most memorable dining experience!“
“(Edited my og review because it was poorly written and rushed.)So there I was, on a spontaneous adventure, when suddenly, BAM! Google throws me a curveball - "Nutella Empanada." You bet I was intrigued. It was like the universe daring me, "Bet, let's go."Stumble into this place, and it's like I've walked into the heart of the local scene. This guy, just oozing neighborhood vibes, hits me with, "You're not from around here, huh? Welcome to the best Italian spot in town." And he didn't stop there - gave me the lowdown on all the hidden gems nearby. This dude was living and breathing local charm, and I was here for it. The lobby? Packed with the coolest cats you could meet.Turns out, snagging a table at this joint is usually like finding a unicorn - pretty darn rare. But guess what? They worked some magic and got us in... into an outdoor igloo, no less! Yeah, you read that right. An igloo! (Peep the pics for proof - it's as rad as it sounds.)Now, let's talk food. Holy smokes, it's delish. The staff? Angels in disguise, I swear. Super friendly, on-point, and ready to make your experience top-notch.Oh, and if you see anything with Vodka sauce on the menu, just do yourself a favor and order it. It's a solid 10/10. Trust.All in all, this spot isn't just a restaurant; it's a local legend. Do yourself a favor and drop by. You won't regret it.“
“We held a private event for about 25 people last weekend in the upstairs space at Two25 and I could not have been more pleased! Leading up to our event, Andrea was very helpful and responsive, and the rest of the staff was just as incredible day-of. They were attentive to us and our guests (adults and children alike), regularly checking in to make sure everything was going well and everyone had what they needed. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was fantastic. It was the perfect place for our event, and we'll absolutely be back next time we're in the area!“
“Saturday evening dinner without a reservation. Walking in, my eyes immediately gravitated to the pictures of the owners and the many celebrities that have eaten and visited there before. The bar area is very nice and large, with TVs playing sports and news. We were greeted, welcomed and seated immediately. The dining area is very large and decorous. The tables large enough to sit us all. My cousin-in-law and his family frequent the restaurant and he practically knows everyone there, so as we sat, we were introduced to the owners and pretty much about a half dozen waiters and other staff members. All were extremely friendly and welcoming. As expected with all family style restaurants, the tables are very close to one another but positioned in a way that still allowed for ample space for you to move and sit comfortably. When we sat, there were hardly any people there, but within an hour it was full of patrons and large families. It was loud, but manageable. The food was unbelievably delicious. I haven't had true traditional family style Italian food in a long time. From the Fried Calamari and cold antipasto appetizers, to our Veal Parmigiana, Penne allá Vodka with Shrimp and prosciutto entrees. Paired with a Cabernet Sauvignon Palermo Napa, I truly enjoyed my meal. I haven't enjoyed food this good in a long time. My girls shared a huge plate of Chicken fingers and fries, and they loved it. I highly recommend anyone who's in the area to dine here. You won't regret it. Thank you for a great meal and patronage.“
“Very good food at Popei's starting with their garlic+ bread. I had the lobster and shrimp stuffed penne in vodka sauce - hearty, tender, perfectly cooked seafood without that rubbery feeling in a fantastically creamy sauce. I sliced my stuffed penne into diagonal strips and every bite was amazing. Others had the crab leg and steak special; crab wasn't as good as my shrimp and lobster being a little over-boiled perhaps but the skirt steak had great flavor and chew. Most entrées hovered around $30. Would absolutely return.Note they have valet parking due to its popularity and limited parking space - so bring some small bills.“
“For top-notch pizza and exceptional service, head to Catusco Pizza in Huntington Station. Their pizzas are flavor-packed with a perfect crust and fresh toppings. The menu also features appetizing options, including gluten-free and vegan choices. The friendly owner makes every visit memorable. Catusco Pizza is a must-try spot in Huntington Station. (Try their vodka slice and the penne a la vodka and thank me later)“
“We hosted our daughter's first birthday here with 40 people on a Sunday afternoon. Working with Ervis and Gabriella was fantastic -- great communication and very flexible. The event turned out better than we could have expected. The food is AMAZING. Everybody is still raving about it and a few of our family members have already been back! Would definitely recommend hosting a small event here!“
“Absolutely amazing! I've been wanting to stop by here for some time now and regret not coming in sooner. My husband wanted to try Farm Italy but Joanina had been calling my name for a year now. He reluctantly agreed came in on a busy Saturday night no reservation. Initially told an hour wait but they were able to seat us in this look nook area within minutes and I absolutely loved this little intimate cozy spot. I love margaritas initially I wasn't going to get one and was going to stick to wine but my husband ordered one as I stepped out to get something from the car. This is now one of my fav places for a good marg! I ended up having 4 usually it's 2 max! We started with a app special burrata, artichokes and peppers and yum yum so delicious! We decided to split a pasta and meat yikes incredibly good! I mean just outstanding pork with eggplant, prosciutto and mozz over a Marsala sauce oh my just incredible! Pasta another hit too perfect amount of cream just a touch and those mushrooms yum! We ended up going back a week later and I went with their bolognese another amazing hit! I also had their creamy burrata with prosciutto just so good. My goal is to try everything on their menu! Their pizzas look amazing too so looking forward in trying them.“
“This restaurant can lend itself to a very noisy environment. Yet today, with several tables taken, conversation was easy and able to be heard. We have been here several times for brunch and a couple of times for dinner. Delicious salad with greens, grape tomatoes and fresh red onions cut over a chicken milanese. Companions enjoyed their choices of crab cake benedict and a large cubano sandwich served with homemade shoestring fries. Shared their homemade flourless chocolate cakes served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Three happy people after an excellent brunch.“
“Amazing experience on a Saturday night. They put us front and center for the live pianist who was absolutely phenomenal. This is our new favorite spot in CSH without a doubt! The imported burrata was super fresh and tasteful a simple dish down right! The Cacio e Pepe for the main came with delicious Cajun chicken that was blackened perfectly. Can't wait to come back to this little gem in the heart of town.“
“20/10 Westbury Manor was more than I could have imagined. It rained on my wedding day and all the staff worked their butts off to make sure my day went perfectly, and it did!!! This place runs like a well-oiled machine. Upon booking, I spoke with Mike. He was one of the first reasons why I wanted to book with WBM. Any questions I had, Mike was always there to give me the information I needed. Sandra was the next person I worked with and she was also just as amazing. The BEST part of my day was Phil, our Matre’d and Claudia our bridal attendant. These two are sensational!!!! Talk about TEAMWORK!!!! They were running out in the rain for me, carrying the train on my dress, keeping us cool calm and collected all day and got us anything that we needed. The list goes on for these two on how hard they worked and how much they did for us. Both of them were at our sides all day to make sure everything was up to par. Their attention to detail was phenomenal. We received so many compliments on Phil and Claudia and how wonderful they were to our guests as well as my husband and I. If you want to feel like Royalty on your wedding day, WBM is the venue for you. Jerry, the owner, even came up to my husband and I to make sure we were happy. I am now looking for ANY reason to book another celebration at WBM!!!“
“Italian restaurant in Roslyn village but not easily seen as its set back by the water. Food is good, service was good. Noisy and dark, needed a flashlight to see the menu.Sales are large size. My favorite in the Bronzino cooked in paper.There is a nearby municipal lot, street parking, and valet parking available“
“Hi I don't usually don't do reviews but I had a surprise birthday party for my wife on 3/23 of a party of 20 people and from the beginning dealing with and planning with EVA she went up and above my expectations walking me threw everything from beginning to end I can't say enough of her and Barbara and just wanted to thank Barbara our server handled all of us with no issues at all and all of the staff who helped with everything from Eva, Barbara and would give both of them 10 stars and more and food was absolutely exquisite“
“Have passed this pizzeria many times and never went in cause I just thought the parking was too difficult . Someone told me today that this was their favorite pizza in Plainview ( it at the border of Plainview and Hicksville on Woodbury road and south oyster bay road). I asked why and he said , it's the cheesiest! Anyway, I decided to try it and was very pleased. I had a cauliflower pizza which was excellent and I could present it was healthier. The regular slice was also good and really cheesy as promised. Inside the dining room is nicer than you can tell from the outside. The staff are efficient and accommodating. You can park on the street , but they DO have a parking lot in back, around the corner. Gotta say, although I haven't been here for 28 years, I plan to return.“
“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.“
“Great neighborhood family owned italian restaurant. It always so enjoyable eating at Eliza's. Chef makes great food and always has great specials to choose from each night. We started we baked clams and needed to ask for more bread to soak up all that delicious sauce. We both decided on pasta for dinner and both were great choices. I went with pasta rollo which was rolled up fresh lasagna. After seeing similar dishes online I always wanted to try it glad they had it and it was delicious. My wife enjoyed her pasta with chicken & broccoli. Since it was Tuesday they have pasta night and both dishes came with a nice salad.“
“I highly recommend eating here!! The food is Amazing!! The Service is always on Spot!! They are always friendly and helpful. You never have to wait to call your server, there always on top of it!! The atmosphere here is so pleasant. So in all you MUST try Filomena's you will not be disappointed!!!!“
“My recent trip to Long Island was my first time back anywhere near NYC in a few decades. I only had time to get pizza at one place so I picked this place because of the reviews. Got a large sausage (regular NY style), it was very tasty but just a tad too thick for me to be NY style. Great pizza nonetheless but I've had better NY style in the midwest so I can't give it 5 stars. A little thinner and it's probably a 5 star pizza. The flavor is there.“
“The staff were great. They are attentive, friendly and beyond accommodating. The interior is so pretty. The food which to me is the most important part was absolutely amazing. I cannot wait to go back and try more dishes. The drinks were also delicious.“
“Delightful Italian experience! We started with sautéd calamari and the Ceaser perfect for the both of us. The penne a la vodka was aldente and creamy, and the halibut was perfectly cooked amazing with the potato and escarole combo. Exceptional flavors, friendly service a must try! True hidden “
“Ardito's is staple of the community there in Mineola. Anyone who knows Rosa and Tony will agree with me that they are both amazing. The food is always on point and handed to you with a smile. The lunch hours can get pretty crowded and busy but is worth the wait. I recommend Arditos for everything from sandwiches to salads and pasta.. eggplant parm to die for and some of the best chicken cutlets I have ever had!“
“We had my mothers' 90th birthday last Saturday and we are very pleased with the entire experience. Robbie was a pleasure to work with, he answered all our questions and was helpful with the food choices and the entire setup. Ignacio and Rueben provided outstanding service the day of the party, and dealt with late comers and we even went over the time frame a little bit. Now to the food, wow wow wow! Everything was delicious. The crowds favorite, Ravioli's and Pollo Zingarella. Highly recommend it all! Thank you Piccolo's“
“Rose our server made our dining experience fantastic. She is very attentive and kind. Thanks for making sure that guests that enter your restaurant receive excellent service. Kudos to your management ?Dietary restrictions: Low sodium and vegan options will be great.“
“This restaurant is my husband and I favorite place on Long Island . We go weekly and it’s always consistent. Everything on the menu and the specials is amazing . My husbands been frequenting this place for over 30 years . The best of the best . The owner Billy is a great friend, a gentleman and always does right ! The staff is a pleasure as well . Best service! Can’t say enough good things . Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed!“
“Rialto's motto: Good Friends. Good Food. From my research I surmised Rialto has been around over 14 years. I was surprised the restaurant does not market their establishment date with their motto, as 14+ years is no small feat. My original visit a few years ago, attending an event with my colleagues bundled in a smaller section of the restaurant left a lot to be desired. It had myself questioning whether I should attend yet another milestone event squished in a corner. After succumbing to the pressures as to why I should attend, I was pleased that this evening's Jan 2024 Retirement Dinner, was set up in the larger part of the restaurant. Great company. Entering from the main door you are met with a warm, cozy glow on the smaller, bar side of the restaurant and then an immediate separation to the larger main dining area. The main area allowed the space needed for co-workers not seen in ages an opportunity to mingle freely. Much more comfortable. Good food. A small sample of the Berkshire Pork Chop was perfectly prepared. I definitely recommend. My Almond Crusted Stuffed Chicken Breast was a savory, sweet dish with the accompanying mashed Sweet Potatoes. Another perfect combination. To add to the pleasantries of the evening, our obviously skilled servers offered prompt, satisfactory service. Any request I or my table companions made were fulfilled without any necessary follow up. There may have been exceptions, though all appeared content with the service. If the opportunity arose again and dependent on the circumstances I would return to Rialto. TIP: Parking Lot in back Residential parking available“
“Great food and incredible service. We were a party of 6 that stopped by for dinner on a Thursday. Food was delicious, great presentation. We were celebrating a birthday and the folks at George White all made it very special. Highly recommend.“
“Love this place. I live right across the street. I'm in love with their grandma's pizza. The food is delicious. Shrimp scampi is my favorite. And their garlic knots are so garlicky. I usually get a dozen and eat them all myself in way under 2 days. It is my go to place for pizza and pasta. Check it out. You won't be disappointed.“
“After seeing this place on Instagram, I decided to give it a try. The atmosphere, service and drinks were great but the food, was a big no which makes me feel I won’t come back here.The steak was over cooked and well done instead of medium, the sauce it came with was bitter. The ravioli was cold like it came out the refrigerator, they remade it and then it was chewy, wasn’t boiled well.“
“We never leave disappointed! We had the mushroom rice balls, tuna tartar, the lamb special and the linguine with crab special. All were FANTASTIC. I even requested to make the linguine a little spicy and the chef delivered. We finished our dinner with the dog cheesecake (also a special) and an espresso martini. Jonathans is a hidden gem with amazing food and service!“
“The service was excellent. Very loud on Peak Busy times. Seating is very tight. They pack you in. If you are looking for a quiet, intimate setting, this is not the place on busy peak times. The food was okay. Steaks are great. Salad was okay. You are going there for the steaks. I had stuffed shrimp with crab meat. Real crab meat. It was a little on the dry side. The potatoes were good. The chocolate cake was decent, but the actual cake was very dry. Service was amazing, and you are not rushed.Parking: Valet parking“
“This was actually my first time here and it did not disappoint. I came here with a large group and the service and the food were phenomenal. It was so good I even called the next day to tell them how great they were . Everything from start to finish was fantastic. We had the wings ,which are the best wings I ever had. We had the meatballs., four different types of pizza and salads. They also had the best dirty martini I ever had. They made it perfect. Will definitely be back.“
“I was very skeptical of this place at first, but it was amazing. So the concept is Italian-Mexican food. It works. And it works very well.We ordered 3 tacos as well as the surf and turf quesadilla. I was absolutely blown away by the taste and quality of everything. The quesadilla was one of the best I've had in a long time. The steak was juicy, the shrimp wasn't chewy, and the flavors were amazing. For tacos, we got the ital-Americano, chicken parm, and maialino. Every one was tasty in its own way. The Ital-Americano was super juicy, the chicken parm was just delicious chicken parm in a shell, and the mialino was juicy with just the right amount of spice.I need to remember next time to sign up for the rewards program since I know I'll be back there a lot.Parking: Parking all over.“
“My favorite place for a cocktail. The bartenders are lovely and they always make you feel at home.Love to eat at the bar some nights!Vegetarian options: Gnocchi, artichoke, pasta, eggplant, salad and delicious desserts!Dietary restrictions: Diet friendly. They will find you an option.Parking: Come early and you’ll find parking.Kid-friendliness: Nice family place. They always accommodate.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes! In front and in back.In back is the parking lot too!“
“We don’t live in the area so we just googled to pick a spot and the reviews I read were spot on. It’s a casual dinning room, we sat at the bar. Food was really really good and we like to think of ourselves as foodies. Butternut Squash Soup was perfection (if I could add anything would just be a dollop of sour cream) Oyster Rockefeller delish, and my husband loves to rate chicken Parma and he loved it!!!! Bartender was really nice also and attentive.“
“A unique restaurant offering Mexican and Italian cuisine. My partner and I started off with a delicious Greek salad and then both had fajitas. There was an abundance of the chicken and steak in the fajitas. They came out sizzling hot and were seasoned nicely and flavorful. The service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant is not large and has a friendly and family atmosphere. Definitely check it out!!!“
“Great place! Food is amazing! Best gyros ever!! Service is nice, staff is friendly, very clean! Been coming here for years and will continue. Highly recommend.... thanks for making customers feel at home! Especially Edmond.....That's how you know it's family operated ! Your gyro fans Jimmy and Dina, dine in and take out both were great experiencesVegetarian options: They have many rice and veggie platters, pasta, falafals“
“They took the $10 Espresso Martini off the Happy Hour menu, darn it! Now it is regularly priced at $17. Trento’s version of the Espresso Martini is my favorite one on Long Island!The fried calamari is so lightly breaded that I felt I was eating just the fish. It is the best calamari that I have ever had on Long Island.However, the Fusilli Bolognese tasted meh! Nevertheless, this restaurant deserves five stars for its quality of food and superb service.“
“La Ginestra has become out favorite restaurant in Glen Cove. The food and service are great. And here's a little secret. If you don't see it on the menu, ask your server if the chef can prepare what you want. No guarantee, but you may be surprised that get what you wish for.“
“This was our 2nd time to Matteo's. We were introduced to it by friends just last week and we knew we were going to return soon. Their special $39 menu is fabulous. They don't skimp on the selections, food is delicious and the portions are generous. Not to mention, they give you a glass of wine with it. Whoever put the menu together is genius and we can't wait to return and bring some friends and family to our new favorite place.“
“So happy we stumbled across this place. Our new go to for sandwiches. We get chicken cutlet, fresh mozz, pickles, hot sauce and pickles on a hero. Generous size sandwich for $10. Love it! Good chicken salad too. I always see people in there getting pizza pies so I'm curious how those are. Family owned. Good greek cookies too. Doesn't look like much from the outside but definitely worth a try!“
“Went for lunch about a month ago. Excellent service, and the answer to my request for something a little off-menu was "absolutely". The Veal Sorrentino was very good but serving could have been larger. The clam appetizer was good, if a little different. The coffee and sorbet were acceptable. Nice ambiance...not my favorite place, but I will return.“
“Absolutely fantastic! What a gem!We were in town for a very quick visit and stumbled across this amazing restaurant!We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was simply delicious. Tender, cooked perfectly, and very tasty.As a main dish, I ordered the special seafood pasta fra diavolo. It was amazing. My wife ordered the branzino special and that too was divine.We closed out with a tiramisu that was one of the best we ever had.Added bonus, Tuesday is 40% off wine, so we had a great bottle for a super deal!Lastly, Cristian, our server was top notch!We will highly recommend this incredible restaurant with great ambiance and over the top food!“
“We’ve been coming to Franina for years but I never posted anything until now. The food is excellent and the presentation is elegant and creative. Check out the Frutti di Mare. It could have been plated like most other restaurants do which is a pile of seafood on a few large leaves of romaine. But at Franina, it’s a work of art and absolutely delicious.“
“Amazing staff . I stopped in when my sugar level happened to plummet I'm diabetic. Also I rank in the top 10% globally on google maps for pizza reviewers and I'd like to thank the staff for their hospitality. If you guys remember me. Thank you. The food is amazing . Top notch. Just crispy enough. Doesn't fall apart and slide off. 100% an all time favorite Umberto's all the way“
“This is under new ownership and decided to try it. It is very clean and the new owners are very nice and friendly. Their breakfast sandwich tasted great and was perfectly cooked and the price was more reasonable than most other delis I have been to by a few dollars. Besides sandwich’s and typical deli salads what makes them stand out is their Korean options. I tried their Korean fried chicken and it was delicious. Definitely recommend trying it if you want something different.“
“This was my second time back and it hasn't changed. I don't give stars out easily but try to stay close to the Michelin guide. Which means this would be one, and deservedly correct. We had lunch and they just about steer you to the Prix Fix at $ 21.00 for thee courses. This is old times done Italian up scale. We started off ordering the Cabernet on each table, $ 45.00 and very good, they then brought out a basket of bread and complimentary Brochetta. We ordered the Cesar Salad creamy but very tasty, Followed by Veal with Fontina Cheese, and an ensemble of Fresh crispy Vegetables, all delicious. We ordered espresso, with Italian Cheese Cake and they topped that with complimentary fresh fruit and an after dinner cordial. The service was professional, menu recited from memory poured the wine as needed, didn't ask if we are still working on that, but delivered and took away from the right side. None of that taking your salad fork and putting back on the table. I say this because the place is cozy, the Service great and food delicious, while the prices so fair, with the class of not charging for using a credit card. What a find these days. Wish La Villetta was closer to me, but it is worth the drive.“
“I always enjoy dining at Piccolo Bussola! My family and I often dine there and it's the first place I go for gift cards! Everyone I know enjoys receiving a gift card for a wonderful meal at Piccolo! The waiters are always kind and very attentive. The food is delicious! I highly recommend this wonderful neighborhood spot.“
“My favorite pizzeria. The best one I’ve ever had in all of NYC and Long Island in terms of service and quality. And that’s coming from a carbophile that lives in the city and grew up in Long Island, so it’s fair to say this opinion comes from quite a large sample “
