50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Gilgo Beach

“This restaurant sits on the boardwalk of Captree State Park overlooking the fishing boats and the boardwalk, and we had the most wonderful lunch! The lobster rolls were incredible, the muscles in white white sauce with garlic and butter was outstanding, and the fish and chips was crunchy and fresh and beautiful. Most of all, however, were two members of the staff who went well overboard to address our particular needs with my mother‘s wheelchair and hearing issues, Charlene and Annie. Both of these women made absolutely sure that we were in comfortable and quiet seating because we were with my mom who is elderly, and the restaurant was quite busy downstairs so they put us upstairs in this absolutely beautiful room overlooking everything. We can’t say enough. Just outstanding!“

“Very nice place to east Fast service And very pleasant waitress“

“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.“

“OUR WAITRESS DAYANA WAS THE WORST ALLTHE MONEY WE SPENT. HOW DARE SHE TREAT ME BAD. HER ATTITUDE WAS HORRIBLE SHE GOT THE WRONG ORDER BUT I EAT IT ANY WAY. TOO SLOW ON GETTING THE UTENSILS. I HAD TO ASK 5 TIMES. GETTING THE SAUCE FOR MY MEAL. LYING TO MY FACE THAT I ORDERED THW WRONG MEAL. IF THATS THE WAITRESS WHO HAVE WE SHALL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN AND SPEND THE MONEY WE SPEND.“

“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.“

“The food was soooo delicious. My husband I were cwlebrating our 6th Anniversary and had a WeekDay Luncheon Date. Totally Superb down to the very last drop. We ate every buttery morsel.

We will most definitly coming back. Staff was very attentive and friendly and very accomodating. Thank You for such a wonderful experience!“

“My husband and I had a lovely lunch at Captain Ihab's. The mussels were outstanding and only $5. We shared the eggplant parm which was done to perfection. No liquor license , which we knew, so we brought our own spirits. We will definitely be back and eager to try other things on the menu.“

“We had a Mothers Day celebration Sunday at this fabulous seafood restaurant. There were 15 of us- 9 adults and six children between 5 and 12. We traveled an hour to get there. The food was delicious- fresh, tasty and the portions were so large that everyone took a doggy bag home. It was served by a great staff including Angel who was our server. The owner, Donna, was very cordial and friendly. Everyone had a great time. We can't wait for our next family dinner to return. This is a must restaurant if you are a seafood lover!!“

“We had dinner last night. One of the girls I was with drove past this place a couple of times so we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is by the water. It seems like you’re going through a neighborhood and then an industrial area. With lots of parking. What’s inside is really nice a large room not too noisy with television so you can keep an eye on sports if you want. Out the back was views of the marina and water. One of my friends needed the bathroom and was appreciative of how well it was designed and how clean it was. Our server, Kaiser, was amazing. He appeared when we needed him and allowed us to catch up. He had some good suggestions to try for drinks and dinner. And those did not disappoint. My friends ordered cocktails and they looked amazing and tasted even better according to them. They started with some appetizers. We had the zucchini chips done very well. The chip held up to being dumped in either a tomato sauce or a tzatziki sauce both of which had good flavor. The chip was still crispy light. We also ordered the octopus. It was nice to get to tentacle so we can share it. A good flavor loved the chard lemon on the side. But the start of this dish was definitely the potato salad because it was unexpected. My other girlfriend got a salad and said it was absolutely amazing. She was grateful that the portion was so large. She was able to bring it home as a lunch for tomorrow. We decided to order three dishes and Share we got the chicken special which had artichoke tomato and mozzarella on top the short ribs and then the Sole almondine. The chicken was nicely seasoned a good flavor, and the side was very good. The sauce was not too salty and very flavorful. The short roofs fell off the bone and the mashed potatoes are the way I like it a little chunky, but the gravy was very good. Green beans were except really good. The fillet of soul was covered with almonds on top, which was a very nice add of flavor and texture it had good flavor and not salt. The sides were very good also. After chatting for a while, we decided to order dessert. The Dubai chocolate order was amazing. Really good flavor not too sweet well balanced. A tuxedo cake was everything you wished we could eat when you want something chocolate. The layers of mousse mixed with the ganache was very good. Her homemade whipped cream was a nice add to cut the sweetness. So the restaurant seemed pretty busy we did not feel rushed. We definitely felt taken care of. And thoroughly enjoyed catching up with friends. Appreciated at Kaiser was able to enter with us too. Felt the pricing was there for what we ordered. They serve sizes were a good portion size and well balanced. If you know me, you know, I’m a water snob and the water was very good. I liked that they had a cute bottle to keep on the table so that you could have the water when you needed it not when the server came over to pour. I only downside would’ve been a diet soda tasted more seltzer than syrup, but it was OK. Lots more to try on the menu. Can’t wait to go back and try it.“

“We were here for my nephew's birthday (his favorite place). Great experience overall. I know the company has gone through some changes over the past few years and to me it shows. Staff and service at this location were great and the food met my expectations...especially the front hostess who showed my son the live lobster tank (she was very kind to him).“

“I was in town from Florida visiting cousins & they heard great things about this place, so we figured we would try it out! Well, it did NOT disappoint in every way! The decor and vibe is really cool with a beach/nautical theme. The food and drinks were delicious! The roasted brussel sprouts & the Shepherd’s Pie was to die for! Our waitress, Nicole, was great and funny! The bartenders, Joe & Katie, made amazing & different cocktails and were so warm & attentive! They had a one man band singing who was really talented! We even met the owners who could not be more welcoming, friendly and attentive making sure we were having a great time and we were happy with everything! If I lived here, I would definitely come here often, and definitely will be returning on my next visit! Check this everything out for sure….and you’re welcome in advance!!?????“

“I just had my daughter’s baptism at Fabio’s. From the food to the service everything was amazing! My guests were raving about the food. We did family style and it was more than enough food. We even had leftovers to take home! Fabio went above and beyond helping us set up the decorations the night before my party. We never felt rushed (we were there til 1am). He wants his guests to have a great experience and we did! Thanks to Fabio, Rose, Marty and the entire staff for a great party!“

“Amazing ambiance, the ceilings are super tall which is always great. Personally love the fact that's the menu is favored towards authentic Chinese cuisine. Everything is done really well. The dice mala chicken with chili is something i always order at every place that has it on the menu and this place definitely tops it. It's a must order. Would definitely return on the regular!“

“The chef Francisco is a fine chef and his food tastes great. I have eaten here about 5xs already and he never disappoints. I highly recommend the tacos 🌮. I have also eaten the skirt steak which was delicious. He has a very nice presentation on all dishes. They also have fresh baked breads and the waitresses are all very nice and friendly. The dining area is nice and there is music playing and sometimes live entertainment. I want to try every dish on the menu. The restaurant has the potential to be a real gold mine because the food is definitely on point.“

“I love the vegetable medley’s“

“I’ve never been to a rodizio restaurant before, and I came up to Long Island to spend Easter and my birthday with my daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren. It was by far the best experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant, the staff were professional, knowledgeable, efficient , the food is constantly hot. I would rate this restaurant at 10 star! If you’re on Long Island, it’s a must to try!“

“Customer for 18 years now. Saw today that the restaurant wasn’t as busy as it used to be, so I decided to write a review- it’s still just as good as it always has been, the food is fresh, and the same workers from back then are still here.
If you’re looking for good Cantonese food or a taste of home, this is definitely the place. It deserves more recognition.“

“Best Chinese food by far! So fresh too“

“Very nice staff, good food“

“Tony, Tony, Tony... Our party of 24 will forever be grateful to you for saving a night out with our family. When I called asking if you could accommodate a large party after plans to go into the city fell apart, you made it happen within a 1/2 hour even though you were super busy with other parties and on a Saturday night before Mother's Day. You welcomed us with open arms and treated us like royalty. You, Sal & your staff made sure we were happy, and we were. The staff is amazing. Patrizia's, as busy as it is all the time, never fails to provide the most delicious and fresh food and in abundance of it. The staff is very attentive and all work well together. The atmosphere is also a lot of fun. You have definitely gained 24 lifetime customers. God Bless!“

“Harley's American Grille Restaurant in Farmingdale is great place for Lunch, Brunch or Dinner. The place has been redone with a really nice decor. Menu is not extensive but offers a lot of great options. We had the Chicken Sandwich and the Wild Mushroom Ravioli.- both were delicious. They offer a Wine List. The service was awesome and Jesse our server was just amazing. Parking is hard in the Village but there are large metered parking lots behind all the stores.“
