“Doreen Katen and her wonderful and professional associates and staff make renting your summer dream, or offering such a rental, a pleasant and easy experience. Expect a great experience, and you won't be disappointed.“

“I had a wonderful afternoon with my best friend at the Mad Batter. It was my first visit and I was pleasantly surprised by the food, service and atmosphere. I appreciated the ample parking lot too. I think it would be a great place to bring young girls or to have an event like a bridal/baby shower.“

“I love the atmosphere and the food and cocktails! I haven’t been for a very long time. I am handicap, I use a walker and sometimes a wheelchair and your place is not accessible The ramp is steep and you cannot get to the rest rooms. I’m sure you don’t have many complaints regarding this issue, but I would love to be able to enjoy your tiki bar/ restaurant once again. Thank you !“

“On a Saturday night, I decided to visit a restaurant that I had heard great things about. To my surprise, the restaurant was nearly empty, but it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I've ever had.

Stepping inside, the restaurant exuded a different vibe right from the start. The ambiance music set the perfect tone – not too loud, not too soft. It was clear that this was a place where you could relax and have a conversation without any distractions.

The service was top-notch. The staff was incredibly kind, friendly, and professional. It's no wonder that they have a 4.9-star rating – they truly deserve it.

Now, let's talk about the food. To start off, they brought out complimentary bread that was absolutely delicious. For appetizers, we ordered the ceviche, which was incredibly fresh and had a delightful kick reminiscent of Peruvian ceviche. We also tried the avocado crab salad, which had a unique and fantastic flavor profile. There was another appetizer, the name of which I can't recall, but I absolutely loved it.

When it came to our entrees, I sought a recommendation from our server who suggested the duck. It was an excellent choice – the duck was absolutely delicious. My partner opted for a lobster dish with sweet corn puree that was truly divine.

We couldn't resist trying a dessert, so we ordered the napoleon. Let me tell you, you HAVE to try it! It was simply amazing, and I still find myself dreaming about it.

To top it all off, the Owner/Chef was incredibly nice. He took the time to visit each table, ensuring that everything was running smoothly. This attention to detail truly made our dining experience remarkable.“

“good burger. clean. friendly. nobody annoyed me. that's a miracle“

“The best breakfast and price I have found in suffolk county!!!!!“

“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!!“

“Had a delicious brunch this morning. Place was spotless, staff was incredibly friendly and professional. Decor is bright and Long Island beachy. Will be back“

“I want to start by saying the buffalo chicken egg rolls are the best and I mean THE BEST Buffalo chicken egg rolls I have ever had. I got garlic parm wings as my main and they were also delicious. Came on a weekend and it was very busy with live music so make reservations!“

“Women, LGBTQ+, POC safe space Joanne and Danielle ran that bar floor without a sweat! Greeted and seated anyone within the second they walked in, and with a friendly smile! Warm and welcoming staff, CRISPY WINGS AND AMAZING SAUCE VARIETY!!“

“The service was excellent, the food was just as good. They truly make you feel like you are family. I'll be back.“

“First off I want to say I've been coming here for years and I just love coming here!! Everyone here is so nice and friendly which is why I always come back. The bartenders especially Kayla and Meagan truly are rockstars.
The food is always good and I really enjoy the atmosphere here and I will always be coming back
You have a really nice set of managers and the new general manager Jillian who took over the store is fantastic!!! She truly loves her staff and takes pride in her job and it shows!!!“

“The place was hopping, and we were seated 15-20 minutes past our reservation, but the service was great (shout out to Jackson, the hardest working server ever)! The fried calamari is huge (4 people), and my scallops and husband's burger were delish! The main reason I gave 4 stars was that the crab cakes weren't great (should use jumbo lump).“

“The food is always fresh and deliciously prepared. Staff and owners are very friendly and accomodating for dietary restrictions (gluten free). Good bar too.“

“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.“

“Good place for a quick bite and drinks. The bar seen is good. I have a few drinks, meet some good people, and watch the game.

Kid-friendliness: Kids welcome 🙏

Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is on ground level and they have double doors.“

“My mom and I hosted a baby shower here, just this past weekend, and we feel we need to scream from the rooftops just how amazing it was! The staff was phenomenal, anything we needed they were right there to help! The food was stellar and all of our guests were talking about how they wish they could load up to go containers from the buffet! If you ever have to throw an event, do yourself the favor and check them out! The owner is the nicest guy and really just went above and beyond to help make the shower perfect! If I could give more than 5 stars I would !!“

“Outstanding food ! Great value. Great staff! Go as soon as you can!!!“

“My new favorite restaurant! Everything is delicious and the staff is incredible.“

“good food, great atmosphere“

“The Bellport offers great food in a very pleasant atmosphere. In addition it is in a nice location for a stroll to the marina afterwards.“

“To start my review, I just wish there were more stars in the food and service category. Trio deserves 10 ⭐'s for both.This restaurant handles two types of food service, restaurant seating and catering for small to large parties. I've now experienced both. My most recent was a repast after a funeral. When everyone is emotional, the last thing the family needs is problems with the food service. Well, in our case, more people showed up than were originally expected. The staff at Trio didn't miss a beat. They set up additional tables in a flash and quickly had the tables set. We had buffet style dining and the selection was outstanding, with something for everyone. From soup to nuts, everything was delicious. They had fish, beef, vegetarian selections and even offered coffee and dessert. (by the way, if I had known how good the desserts would've been, I might have eaten a little less dinner.)The service is impeccable, everything is clean and fresh, the linens and tablecloths were spotless.I'd like to add that Trio is on the grounds of the Holbrook Country Club. You can grab lunch and drinks after you play, just show up and they accommodate parties of all sizes. You won't be disappointed!“

“This cozy spot on the golf course has left the best impressions! Hospitable staff, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide list of specials and wonderful variety. I recommend to everyone! It’s my go to for brunch with the kids and working lunches.“

“I had the pleasure of being served by Lavasia during my visit, and she truly made the experience exceptional! From the moment we were seated, her friendly demeanor set the tone for a wonderful meal. She was incredibly attentive without being overbearing, ensuring our drinks were always topped off and our meals arrived promptly.

What stood out most was her attention to detail, she remembered every special request we made and even went out of her way to offer helpful recommendations from the menu. Her professionalism and positive attitude made us feel welcome and valued as customers.

If you’re dining here, I highly recommend asking for her. She turned a good meal into a great experience. I’ll definitely be coming back and hope to be seated in her section again!“

“Enjoy every time we go delicious“

“It's just an event space. Perfect for meetings and medium sized events. There was food served but it was catered by someone other then owners.

Parking: Location was difficult to find parking and the way the parking lot is very difficult to maneuver“

“Everything was so delicious“

“Food was great. Kind of disappointed that I wasn't offered a refill to go when I asked for a to go box for my food. Guess the waitress was super busy.“

“Best heroes ever!!! Been going there for 30 years!!!“

“My family and I went backcountry camping in the wilderness section of the campground. The beach was beautiful with lots of interesting finds from the ocean! It can get very cold and windy, so keep that in mind when planning your attire and camp set up.

We also stumbled across an interesting arrangement of props that could either be a ritualistic site of a religion I don't know about or an art exhibit. Still pretty cool though!“

“Wanted to give a huge shout out to the Tap Room (Patchogue) (specifically the Patchogue location). We were invited to a family party, buffet-style. I reached out to the restaurant via email, because I wanted to make sure they could accommodate my daughters food allergies -- eggs, soy, sunflower seeds, tree nuts and peanuts, or I would plan ahead and pack snacks she could safely eat instead. The Culinary Director, Joseph Walsh, called me the next day. He spoke to me for awhile, went over her food allergies, made some suggestions, and assured me that he would come up with something she could safely eat. The morning of the party, he sent me an email to confirm we were coming and his suggestions for a safe meal (rice and beans sauteed with bell peppers, chicken cutlet w/ no egg, and a mixed fruit salad). I emailed him back that just rice and beans and the fruit salad would be fine, because she doesn't eat chicken. He emailed me back, concerned that rice and beans and a fruit salad wouldn't be enough, but I assured him it would be fine because she's only 7 and has anxiety over trying new foods at restaurants (understandably), so sticking with rice and beans and fruit salad, which she's comfortable with, would be perfect. At the event, Joseph told my relative that he wanted to talk to us, and when we arrived, he came to introduce himself, told me that he was making sure everything was prepared separately and would be ready for her shortly. Absolutely fantastic service. We truly, truly appreciated all his care and effort, because that's sadly not the norm most of the time when we try to eat out. Thank you Joseph at the Tap Room in Patchogue!“

“Great place. Thank you from the US Military Vet MC“

“Castaway fried rice, as a worker on the island you can get a little lonely sometimes. But when I'm lonely you know what's there for me? Castaway fried rice. When I was sad and didn't think I was worth a dime? Castaway fried rice, what comforts me before I go to sleep at night? You know it. Castaway fried rice.“
