I had no luck trying to call them to make a same day reservation around 5/6pm. We went 1.5hr earlier to get a reservation for 7:45pm. We were seated in their upstairs area which is quieter than the downstairs clubesque area. They only had 2 servers working on a busy Saturday night but they did a decent job. The pitcher specials only really have 2.5 cups of drinks. I enjoyed the meatball sampler (classic, buffalo chicken, and veggie). The perfectly melted burrata spread easily on the nicely soft but crunchy bread. I also enjoyed the burger!! I thought the sauce was great, juicy patty, and flavorful bun. I asked for well done fries and they delivered!! Good saltiness and perfect crunchiness too!The downstairs becomes a crowded dance floor during the later hours. When we left around 11, the line to get in had to be like 15 ppl long! Ironically, the inside dancefloor was like 70% empty!!

Went a couple weeks ago for brunch and deeply enjoyed the food and the mimosas. Went on a Saturday and the vibe was even better, the drinks are amazing. Great bartenders, overall vibe and music. Would definitely go again any time.

The garlic bread is a good app to share with a crowd

Went here for lunch before a concert - Place was empty! The drink quality was weird, honestly something equivalent to Applebees drinks. The food was alright, tasted kind of microwave-ish and cold, the food's price did not live up to the taste. Service was so-so but I felt bad since there was only one waitress available! Two groups sat down in the restaurant and left which was sketchy.

I don't see myself returning here since it's not the kind of atmosphere I like in a restaurant. It felt more like a club than a restaurant when we arrived just before 9 on a Friday. The music was playing very loudly and it was really dark. Our waiter was nice and helpful but it was very hard for him to hear us call for him when we needed him due to the music's high volume. As for the food, we order the meatball sampler, the Brussel sprouts, the GGS pork, and the Chicken Parma Vodka with ravioli. The only things I really enjoyed were the Buffalo chicken ball in the sampler and the Chicken Parma Vodka with ravioli because they were tasty but not too salty. My date loved the brusselsprouts, but he's biased; I thought they were too sweet. Everything else had way too much salt. I think I would have enjoyed the GGS pork if they used less salty sauce and added more bok choy. We ordered a couple of drinks that were good. Overall, I would not visit again, but I'm glad I tried it. Seems like it does better as a bar or night club.

We were a party of 7 people this past Saturday. As many restaurants do with big groups, they added tip automatically. That wasn't a problem because we expected it. The problem was that the servers decided that they didn't have to pay attention to us at all because their tip was assured, so they ignored us. We were at a table right in the front by the sidewalk, and my mom spilled her water. There were 3 women at the hostess station, including our server. Not one of them came and brought us extra napkins or helped clean it up. Not even when we walked over to the wait station and helped ourselves to more napkins to clean it up. They just looked at us and went back to talking to each other.Also - the website said nothing about the fact that they ONLY have the brunch menu on Saturdays at 2pm. There wasn't a single meatball option on the brunch menu.

If you want a lively atmosphere with an equally attentive staff you’ve come to the right place. The bartenders, the waiters and especially the hostess (no disrespect to the rest of the staff at all) we’re very accommodating and welcoming. The food was so good, you come to almost expect it by the behavior of the staff, but I have to say it was amazing. Allison, Kaylee, Jo-Jo, Daniyelle and Thaine. You can’t sleep on this crowd.

SO disappointed. This place was not what it used to be… I planned my husbands birthday dinner here with making a reservation 2 weeks in advance. There was two extra seats. Then they sat 2 random people with us an hour after we were there. There was not a waiter taking orders. We had to ask over and over every time we needed a drink or appetizer and waited for someone to take our dinner orders which I never received. I made a reservation for dinner not for a bar. I am so disappointed, I truly loved this restaurant but I absolutely will not be back and I do not recommend anyone having any type of special dinner there. Also.. the DJ there is extremely rude and called me the C word after I politely asked him to wish my husband a happy birthday after he made a giant shout out to every single person celebrating their birthday there that day. Ps. They mixed up credit cards and the orders (when they were FINALLY taken) were wrong. NEVER AGAIN.

My Sisters and my Daughter and I were a table of 4 - the appetizers that we ordered were good - the entrees were not !!!!! I ordered grilled cheese and tomato soup but it was inedible - the bread was soaked in butter and there was too much cheese to enjoy the sandwich. The tomato soup was cold and it was very disappointing. I sent my dinner back and ordered the Mac and cheese - nothing spectacular at all!!! My daughter ordered the lobster balls and they were very fishy - she did not finish her meal. My sisters ordered salads and they were happy with their choices - All in all very average food - very expensive visit for food that was mediocre- I will not be returning as there are too many places to choose from that have better quality food and ambiance that will allow you to hear yourselves talk. Step up your game Meetball Place!!!!!!!!

Just picked up two lobster grilled cheese sandwiches and crepes from their brunch menu for lunch as take out. The food was absolutely awful. The sandwich had one slice of cheese and all this mayo with lobster chunks. It wasn’t a grilled cheese with lobster it was more like a bad lobster roll. Crepes no good. They omit good things was the chips for over $60. I’d never go back.

They don’t have happy hour food deals btw. I came here on Thursday night and it was not too packed which was great! I had the bacon cheddar tot which was not a gator tot, but a purée of potato, bacon, and cheddar that was fried. I was really disappointed that it was not actually tator tots as I was expecting the gritty consistency you get in shredded potatoes. The mashed potato texture was unpleasant to say the least. I also got a blue drink, but forgot what it was called.

This place was soooo delicious! I had the Nashville chicken bites to start and the spaghetti & meatballs for the entree. I had never had anything like the Nashville Hot chicken bites! The flavors were so unique. There was a lot going on in that dish but everything complemented each other. I believe there were chicken bites with potatoes, sweet potatoes, Mayo & pickles. A bit of a spicy kick but was cooled down with the mayo & pickles. The Classic Meatballs were out of this world! (Classic meatbals - Ground chuck, short rib, pork and veal.) I recommend adding the Ricotta cheese for extra charge. So worth it! The only down side is that this place is pretty expensive. We ended up paying $90 for just TWO people! But atleast the food is quality AND quantity. I do recommend you give this place a try.

I had the lamb meatballs over orzo pasta with roasted tomatoes, olives and feta cheese. It was delicious and my go to when I go to this location or the Patchogue one. I do miss the spiciness of the lamb meatballs from when they first came out.Their hummus platter is really good as well. Great shareable app.This is an awesome location with lots of public parking nearby, wheelchair accessible, bathroom is clean and dining on two floors. There is a live cover band and there is a pretty lively atmosphere.
