An excellent and very authentically Portuguese place. They have a formal dining room or informal bar area, where one can eat as well . In both places Portuguese Is the dominant language and the food is abundant and excellent.

This restaurant has been around for a long time in Farmingville NY, we live in the area but it's only in the last couple of years that we have eaten there, what a mistake of now having gone sooner. They have a bar area and a dining room that needs a little more atmosphere but the food is so delicious you forget about it and just enjoy what you have ordered. As soon as you sit, they bring nice crusty Portuguese bread and marinated olives, so yummy. I usually order pork and clams, my favorite, chunks of pork in a garlic sauce with the most incredulous fried cubes of potatoes, again yummy. My husband this time ordered spaghetti with beef stew, again lots of beef in a light tomato stew sauce. Portions are large, enough for two meals more at home. Sangria, red, full flavored red wine and lots of fruit. Check the menu and you will not regret going there. Service is professional and he let us take our time eating. Will definitely keep going.

Exceptional restaurant!! Delicious food. They make a 120% effort. Meal prices are reasonable and portions are generous.
Last weekend my BF and I decided we wanted to try a local Portuguese restaurant. I had seen excellent reviews for Ole on Horse Block Road in Farmingville so that is where we went. We were blown away. What an amazing gem turned out to be. On the table, to start, they put some delicious bread and a plate full of yummy garlicky olives. For our entrées my BF got Lagosta con Champagne, which was described as lobster cooked in a casserole with shrimp, scallops and clams. I ordered Paelha Marinheira which was lobster clams, scallops, shrimp, mussels, and rice also in a casserole pot. The first thing we couldn’t get over is the unbelievable amount of seafood in each one of these pots. My dish was $27 and his was $38. With the amount of seafood in these dishes, I easily would’ve expected it to be almost double. Both of our dishes were absolutely delicious. It was almost amusing to to see us eat our dinners with the amount of happy noises, smiles, laughs, and endless compliments about the food. When we were done, we had eaten a ridiculous amount of food and yet we each took home enough to have another meal. In fact, he asked for an additional tuperware like container for the sauce that was in his dish. It end up filling two of containers. He is going to use that sauce to cook some seafood at home. We finished off the dinner by sharing a delicious chocolate mousse. The staff was so lovely and welcoming. They talked to us about Portugal and about what the various paintings in the room represented. It was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in a long time and I go out to dinner a lot lol. We will definitely be back to Ole many many times.

While on the way home, our travels took us to Farmingham, NY. Its a hidden gem (to us) on Long Island. This gem is in a small strip mall with reasonable parking. It's a smallish place with a lot of charm with good food. We were seated and given the specials by our server. The interesting thing was we tried to look at the board to see the specials again, they were in Portugese! Obviously, we had the server repeat the specials since we are not able to interpret the list. First item placed on your table are olives. Then a basket of bread with pats of butter. I am not an olive person, usually. However, these are by far the tastiest little morsels I've had the pleasure of eating. I don't know how they prepare them, but they are delicious. Then we ordered dinner. Be prepared to be overwhelmed. I order the Mariscada com Molho Verde (seafood in green sauce). Not sure what I was getting or what's in the sauce, but it's only one meal. Take a leap of faith. It was more than I could have expected. This was one of the best meals to get if you like seafood. Shrimp, mussels, scallops, and half a lobster. It arrives in a large cast iron casserole dish doused in a sauce full of flavor albiet green. Green Schmeen it was delectable. You won't leave hungry! SO ordered Mariscada a "Ole"; seafood in a red sauce. There had to be at least a half pound of shrimp plus another half pound of scallops with mussels, then the half lobster. Use that bread to dip in the sauce. Yes, this gem is well worth visiting. TV shows the news in Portugese. Servers were pleasant gentlemen who enjoyed chatting with the regulars. I do wish we had one like this in town.
