“And - we're back for the 2nd time in a month - just couldn't resist trying more options on the winter menu. This time around we shared tuna tartare app which was plenty for sharing and an excellent option. Dinner choices from our servers suggestions were butterfish and scallops. We enjoyed it all. Great flavors and presentation. Portions were just right, even if it means no take-home box. Looking forward to Spring!“

“We had a great family dinner at The Capital Grille. We started with the calamari and lobster bisque—both were delicious, especially the rich and flavorful bisque. For our main dishes, my sea bass was perfectly cooked and the miso butter/shitake mushroom combination was velvety to the palate and delicious. The porcini-rubbed ribeye was outstanding. My kids enjoyed their burgers and fries, which were done just right. Great food, great service, and a wonderful overall experience. We'll definitely be back!“

“Excellent cuisine and friendly ambiance!“

“Visited Ruth's Chris on January 19, 2026 (the day before my birthday) for an early celebration with my wife—overall a good experience, but with some frustrations. The atmosphere was upscale and inviting, though very loud and crowded that evening, which made it feel a bit understaffed. We both enjoyed our meals; service was attentive and friendly, the hostess who sat us down noticed my upcoming birthday (likely from OpenTable) and asked whose it was. My wife pointed me out, and they treated us to a complimentary dessert, which was a nice touch and made it feel celebratory. However, our table was in a high-traffic area, so staff (servers, busboys) kept bumping my chair throughout the night, which was annoying and disrupted the meal. They apologized each time, which was appreciated, but it happened repeatedly.“

“Nice service as well as great food!“

“My Husband & I Love This Spot So Much. We Come As Often As We Can Which Is A Lot. The Staff Are Very Friendly And Never Had A Bad Experience. I Will Continue To Come, Sit, Eat & Drink.“

“Yesterday was the first time I have been to Popei’s. What a great night! From the moment we walked in the owner/chef greeted us. We sat outside in the tent with the great musician. He was very interactive, took requests. People were singing along, It’s was very enjoyable. It was very clear our waitress, Janice was extremely busy but also very thorough careful and caring. It’s obvious she cares about what she is doing and works very hard. Upon my ordering, I mentioned a food allergy Janice double checked that things were OK before she submitted the order. 2 other people came to verify before cooking my meal. The food was SO GOOD! Big portion sizes. Gave my mother dessert to celebrate her birthday. Overall, it was an absolutely fantastic night. We will be back. My only suggestion would be when the musician is taking a break to lower the background music. When he wasn’t singing, the music was still incredibly loud and we had difficulty hearing each other at the table.“

“The portions for the appetizers were so igwe couldn’t even order entrees. The food is well seasoned and delicious. The service was attentive. The ambiance is PARTY. You just keep moving as you done. I definitely will be back…“

“Stopped here on a Sunday night as they were about to close they were pretty much out of everything. Kerry Ann was kind enough to make us some fresh fried fish and chicken topped it off with some extras. Super amazing customer service. Their coconut drops and peanut cake reminded me so much of back home, jamaica. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely stop by if I'm ever in the area.“

“I always enjoy ordering from this place! The food is made quickly and always arrives hot and fresh. What I appreciate most is the consistency! Every time I order, the quality and flavor are just as good as the last. It’s become my go-to spot when my daughter and I want fish and chip. Highly recommend!“

“Great customer service n food was delish“

“Enormous portions, the bread and salad are excellent starts to a delicious meal. paella valenciana and lamb chops are amazing. Even my super picky, never impressed 75 year old father was in love with this restaurant.“

“Davenport Press was a very enjoyable evening. Our reservation was honored and we seated immediately. This was our first time there. The service was great and so was the food. The portions was substantial and everyone enjoyed their meal. We will definitely go again. I recommend Davenport Press for a terrific meal and excellent service.“

“My brother moved by this spot like a month ago and I know this place OH SO WELL. ? I’m in Freeport and I haven’t found empanadas as good as Mamma Gina’s. When I tell you the food just hits every time, they’re honestly so consistently great.

Parking: It’s a small lot, so just take it slow turning into it.“

“My friend and I - both longtime lovers of Asian cuisine - were originally headed to another spot for lunch, but it was closed for a break until 5 PM. Hungry Monster was nearby, so we decided to give it a try - and we’re so glad we did!
Though the restaurant is small, it’s incredibly cozy and comfortable, with a mix of four-person tables and bar-style seating with stools. When we arrived, there were only a couple of teenagers sipping smoothies, so we practically had the place to ourselves. That meant we got the full attention of our wonderful waiter, Biscuit, who was very attentive and made us feel well cared for from start to finish.
We both ordered their signature dish package - I chose the soup-based seafood package, and my friend ordered the beef version. Each dish came served in a small cauldron, full of different ingredients and rich flavor. The portions were generous, so I ended up taking half of mine home. As a nice touch, they packed my leftovers in a high-quality branded bag with the restaurant’s name, which I really appreciated.
We ended our meal with drinks - mine was a refreshing grapefruit and lemon green tea, and my friend had a Mango Tea Yakult, which was fruity, creamy, and perfectly balanced.
The ambiance added to the experience. The decor combines traditional Asian elements with anime-style art, even on the bathroom door! It was fun, vibrant, and gave the place a unique personality. Pleasant background music played throughout the meal - it was noticeable enough to enhance the atmosphere but soft enough not to interfere with conversation.
Some practical notes:
• They offer delivery, and you can get a 10% discount on takeout if you pay in cash.
• They’re open every day.
• The only downside is parking - limited spots in front of the restaurant and no obvious public parking nearby. You can risk parking in the nearby plaza, but there are tow warnings posted. Thankfully, we didn’t have any trouble.
All in all, we had a wonderful lunch at Hungry Monster. The food was fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the whole experience felt welcoming and personal. We’ve been to many Asian restaurants before, and this one stood out in the best way.
If you enjoy Asian cuisine, we highly recommend Hungry Monster. We’ll definitely be coming back! 5/5 stars“

“Great ambiance, food was good and service was excellently. Hosts were personable. Will definitely recommend.“

“UN EXCELENTE SERVICIO 👏🏻👏🏻 MUY EFICIENTES!!!“

“I came here for fresh seafood and ended up purchasing several prepared food items, since those are easy and looked well made. I tried both seafood and vegetable dishes. All were fresh and tasted delicious. I care about fresh seafood. Prices are not cheap, but with seafood, quality really matters. There also appears to be a sushi restaurant onsite, which I'll have to try next time I'm in town. Roslyn is fortunate to have several local gourmet markets and this counts.“

“The food is good. Service is a bit slow…Then I see most of the servers in their private waiting area talking.“

“Got my lobster roll before they close for the season. No problem about The hot sun the afternoon was extremely blustery. I’ve always loved this place even though it is pricey for a clam shack.“

“I enjoyed having there Cheeseburger.“

“Outstanding Seafood and Exceptional Atmosphere!
I recently dined at Peter Clam Bar, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and the inviting aroma of fresh seafood. The atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant — the kind of place where you can enjoy a great meal with friends or have a quiet dinner by the water.
Every dish was a standout. The clam chowder was rich and flavorful, packed with fresh clams and perfectly balanced seasoning. The grilled lobster tail was tender and buttery, cooked to perfection. I also tried the seafood platter, and every bite — from the shrimp to the scallops — tasted incredibly fresh and expertly prepared.
The service was top-notch, with the staff being friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s rare to find a restaurant that gets everything right — food, service, and atmosphere — but Peter Clam Bar truly delivers on all fronts.
If you love seafood, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!“

“Dagim is fabulous! The menu is vast and has options to suit everyone, and the service is exceptional. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely for either parties or cozy family dinners. Suitable for people of all ages, I’d recommend Dagim to anyone looking for great food and good company. The cuisine, service, and treatment from the owners never disappoints!“

“Was driving back from New Jersey a couple weeks ago and there had been some accidents and a ton of traffic so we decided to take a unplanned detour and stopped in Great Neck. Happily we found a Great Mediterranean Seafood Restaurant/Bar AND saved on drive time! 😜 The server greeted us with a basket of Warm Grilled Pita & Humus, on the house. Pictured we have the Grilled Anchovy & Chilled Roasted Beet Salad with Scallion & Raddish, Tuna Tar Tar with Guacamole, Seaweed Salad & Raddish Apps The Fish 🐟🐡🐙🦀🦞🦐🦑🐚 was Super Fresh & Plentiful and Plenty to choose from! I even saw the Host presenting a table 2 Whole Fish to inspect, compare and choose from 👌👌👏👏 FRESH! An Incredibly lite white airy Chilean #Seabass and Broccoli with garlic, olive oil, sundried tomatoes and chickpeas, was, for me, perhaps the star of the whole show. Grilled Olive Oil #GROUPER with Roman Green Beans 👌 Lastly a Kid's Steak Tidbits order with Fried & Broccoli.. Pearl was Impressed! Skirt Steak.. whole basket was only like $12 $7 #margaritas 👍👍#fullbar #liny #longislandfoodie #freshfish #mangiawithmaggi #Greekfood #mediterraneandiet #lowsalt #nosalt #healthyfood #goodeats #tellthemmaggisentyou“

“Great food and services.I really enjoyed this place“

“My favorite spot on the mile. Great food, service and ambiance!“

“Food is amazing 5/5 every time. Everything is made fresh and they get a lot of business which means you’re going to be waiting sometime. But, they do take online and phone orders. They are very welcoming and very nice. They will let you sample different menu options and not spoonful samples but real samples. They are very nice and I’m so proud of their success. My go to is the whiting, which is the real whiting not the frozen bagged one. Also, the new clam strips and new fries are amazing!!! And the fried okra, chefs kiss. Really great restaurant, you can’t go wrong.“

“We had a fiftieth birthday party here for two twin brothers. The patio out back is beautiful. The food was great and the waitstaff is wonderful. This is practically its own institution in Floral Park.“

“all you can eattttttt...“

“One of my favorite local little hole in the wall spots. Often come here to get a quick bite like the Whiting Fish Sandwich. There a plenty of seafood options and plenty of options to make at home or take with you. Area is a little shaky but hey… that's Hempstead.“

“My wife & I dined here from a friend's recommendation. The service was excellent, where the waiter would check on us and ask how the food was multiple times. The food was delicious. The dish we highly recommend is the lobster mac & cheese. It was flavorful and amazing. We also ordered the catfish platter, softshell crab platter, crabcakes, cajun rice with chicken & cajun pasta with shrimp. They were all pretty great. The strawberry lemonade hits the spot for sure. The restaurant has a parking lot, as well as street parking. A++ recommended.“

“My new fav spot! I will be going again this week for my birthday 🎂“

“The restaurant and food is great Right on the water so great views.I was surprised to see a woman with a pit bull in the restaurant,it definitely wasn't a service dog it had a spoke collar on went to lunge at a man good thing the leash didn't reach him.Then we were in the restroom and she came in with the dog,I had to tell her to take him out and let us to leave the bathroom.Im very surprised the owner didn't ask her to leave.I love dogs, have two big dogs but I don't bring them to restaurants,not fair to them or the patrons.“

“It was a special after-the-beach day birthday dinner at Artie’s and it was fantastic! Everything was fresh and delicious.“

“Highly Recommended, Highly Satisfied, A Great Hospitality, Perfect Family Restaurant, and overall it’s the best homemade home fried rice and Cajun fries and Seafood are top notch best quality food services where the Owner (chef himself), his Newphew are such a friendly company.

“I love Chickin Box! My boyfriend and I order takeout from here at once or twice a week. Consistently delicious food. Some of our favorites are the wings - we usually get lemon pepper, hot honey, or bbq. You can’t go wrong with any of those flavors - all very good ! We always get the sweet potato fries when we get wings. We also usually get the soul rolls which are a must have here . Some of our other go to dishes are the lamb chops with a side of asparagus , the shrimp tacos, or the Rasta pasta with salmon . Overall I would definitely recommend Chickin Box the food is deposit and fair priced . I want to try dining in next time.“
