“We held a private event for about 25 people last weekend in the upstairs space at Two25 and I could not have been more pleased! Leading up to our event, Andrea was very helpful and responsive, and the rest of the staff was just as incredible day-of. They were attentive to us and our guests (adults and children alike), regularly checking in to make sure everything was going well and everyone had what they needed. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was fantastic. It was the perfect place for our event, and we'll absolutely be back next time we're in the area!“
“I have really loved going there. The only complain would be the side salad. The Caesar dressing is awful and they have no ranch dressing. The steaks are good, but we are from Kansas City, so there's that. The meatloaf and other meals have been very good and we go on a fairly regular basis.“
“Italian restaurant in Roslyn village but not easily seen as its set back by the water. Food is good, service was good. Noisy and dark, needed a flashlight to see the menu.Sales are large size. My favorite in the Bronzino cooked in paper.There is a nearby municipal lot, street parking, and valet parking available“
“Made a reservation here for restaurant week. Apparently didn't need one. The place has its own parking lot with about a dozen spots. We entered the building which took us into the bar, which was bustling. The dining room was quaint, with some really nice booths and a fireplace that should have been lit. Our server was a good looking young man, pleasant, not overbearing with a sense of humor. We opted to include an additional appetizer of baked clams to our meal, along with the crab cake and winter salad, which I forgot to take photos of. My friend opted for the lamb chops while I had the branzino piccata. Yummy, although the menu never stated that the fish was served over a shrimp risotto. (I'm allergic to shrimp). Only 1 bone in the fish, so I was lucky. Our dessert consisted of tiramisu and rainbow cookie cheesecake. I was "fortunate" to get the last piece although not very cheesecake-y. All in all we had a nice dinner and will maybe return for another meal.“
“Delightful Italian experience! We started with sautéd calamari and the Ceaser perfect for the both of us. The penne a la vodka was aldente and creamy, and the halibut was perfectly cooked amazing with the potato and escarole combo. Exceptional flavors, friendly service a must try! True hidden “
“I went to Monroe’s for brunch with a group of 11 people to celebrate a birthday. David and Frank were our servers and they took amazing care of us. Our whole group did the bottomless brunch option and our glasses were never empty because they were quick to refill them. They also continuously checked on us to make sure we had everything we wanted. The food was great! I had the sliced steak sandwich, it was delicious. The french fries and home fries were exceptional and perfectly seasoned. Everyone was happy with the food they ordered. I highly recommend visiting Monroe’s. We will definitely be back!“
“Great food and incredible service. We were a party of 6 that stopped by for dinner on a Thursday. Food was delicious, great presentation. We were celebrating a birthday and the folks at George White all made it very special. Highly recommend.“
“Excellent Service with our server, David Nunez. Great suggestions by him. Stuffed crab meat shrimp as appetizer, bacon wrapped mozzarella served with a side of Lobster Bisque soup and tuna tartare with avocado. Scallops served with a asparagus and creamy risotto was delicious as entrees. Meal ended with a Creme Brulee topped with sliced strawberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Great experience all around.Parking: Valet parking available.“
“Wow! This restaurant/lounge is exactly what Oyster Bay needed. They have an incredible selection of wines, an interesting cocktail menu, and the food is delicious. I came in on a rainy Saturday night and enjoyed the cozy, welcoming vibe. The only thing I will say is that the seating is a bit tough. The couches are low, the high top tables aren't inviting, and there is no foot rail if you sit at the bar. While this is not a deal breaker for me, it might be for some so it is worth the mention.“
“Good brunch with huge portions, nice place, and tons of options, great spot to try!- fried pickles were very good, huge serving.-Mac and cheese burger was HUGE, very filling. Cooked correctly (rare). Mac and cheese part was good, not super flavorful.- Asian chicken salad was very good, my wife really enjoyed.- bacon washed old fashioned was good, not as flavorful of fat washed bourbon as I’ve had elsewhere. But good drink overall.- not pictured, French toast dunkers which made an excellent dessert at home with great dipping options.The size of the portions really make it worth it, definitely worth checking out. There were tons of options on the menu including some really unique items. I plan to return to try more.“
“This long time favorite continues on with great service and delicious food. Parking during the day is hit and miss but that aside for those of us who love a local red table cloth Italian with Italians at the helm DiMaggio's is it. One tip try the Lasagna and you will be hooked for life. Large menu and it is all delicious.“
“Had such a lovely dinner at Emilio’s! We’ve ordered takeout before (and it’s great), but it was our first time dining in.Antipasti and salumi are fresh, and we loved the steak frites. Servers are great. But best of all is Sergio, who’s a hoot and shared the best stories. Can’t wait to go back.“
“Great place for lazy quiet lunches... natural light filled atrium...good for all seasons..new modern decor...Servers a bit novice and look confused at times probably new o. The job..but will get better... food is very good and right portions..(not large greasy ).. coffee could get better .“
“Came on the recommendation of a friend. Location is definitely unique. The interior almost reminds me of a place in Manhattan, with the vibe and the decor.They seated us quickly and the service was fantastic. Food and drinks were excellent! Swamp juice was definitely worth it! Kids had blackened chicken and Mac and cheese. The Jambalaya was outstanding!We will definitely be returning!“
“My wife and I went out to lunch today in Locust Valley, NY. Last July, the LVI Bistro changed owners. Marcel has owned the restaurant for over 40 years. They had an excellent reputation and their food and serve was always high quality. This was our first visit since the change and we found it was quite good. We sat down in the bar room and was greeted by the new manager, Andrea. He was very nice and gave us their new menus. Everything looked great from the appetizers to the entrees to the desserts. My wife wanted something light, so she ordered a Cesar salad with grilled chicken strips. I ordered a hamburger with fries. Rita, a waitress from the previous owner, chatted with us about the change and was very positive. There is a new chef, who prepares the food and has a quick turnaround. Both our meals were delicious and were served hot. We talked with the manager and he told us they were going to decorate and renovate the formal dining, the upstairs dining area and the bar room area. We were excited that this local restaurant was getting some loving care from the new owners.We enjoyed our lunch time and enjoyed our experience at the LVI Bistro. When we asked for the check, Andrea brought a dish of tiramisu with two spoons. He told us the desserts were all homemade. It was excellent and was a great way to end our meal.This is a new LVI Bistro and they made a great first impression on both of us. If you're in the Locust Valley area please make some time and try the new LVI Bistro. The service, the food and the atmosphere is great for a meal with two or ten people. Travel safely and keep healthy. We wish the new owners much success in the future. Best wishes.“
“We have been going to this fantastic family restaurant for the past 30 years with all of our friends. The food is absolutely delicious and amazingly consistent. The wait staff is very friendly and attentive. Abundant portions and very reasonable prices fir a family style restaurant.“
“First time coming back to this steakhouse since they changed from One North to Opus Steakhouse several years back. The appearance is very classy and open concept. You can see into the kitchen from the main dining area. The restaurant has a pre-fixie dinner special Sunday-Wednesday for three courses (appetizer, entree with a side and dessert). Within the menu there are some choices for an upgrade price in the appetizer and entree categories. I got the spicy tuna crispy rice sushi, skirt steak with potato pave, creamed spinach and the creme brûlée. The spicy tuna crispy rice had a nice balance of flavor and texture. The skirt steak was seasoned nicely and I enjoyed the potato pave with thin layers of crisp potato. The creamed spinach was flavorful and complimented the steak well. The size of the sides are easily sharable. The crème brûlée was the perfect ending to the meal. Creamy, just enough sweetness and delicious. I appreciated that there were options for mocktails there too since I'm currently not drinking at the moment and can enjoy a nice fancy drink. They were about $10 each and had some interesting options. I got the orange beauty which was almost like a tequila sunrise look without the alcohol. It was very tasty. Our waiters were great and answered any questions we may of had. They were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We definitely will be returning in the future.“
“Nino's Beach, a waterfront gem in Port Washington, offers a rich blend of Mediterranean and Italian fare with vegetarian choices to please all. Ideal for both romantic dates and group gatherings, its menu shines with stars like the pepperoni hot honey pizza, tuna crudo, lobster bucatini, tuna tartare, and spicy rigatoni, making every visit memorable.“
“Yesterday, I met my long time friend George (Owner of Casserino Photography Studio) for lunch at Il Bacco in Little Neck two blocks from where I grew up … George and I met in 1980 when he moved here from DC … we worked for the same photography studio, Barkley’s in Forrest Hills Gardens … we became fast friends … our friendship & connection has stood the test of time even when it years or decades that we do not see each other face to face … we talk on the phone and that’s been awesome … it was so good to see you George and you look fabulous … for lunch we had Caprese Salad, Baked Clams & specially prepared Pork Chops (I haven’t had one in over 20 years) … the food was outstanding … I met the owner John who was a terrific & hospitable guy … Jennifer who was the Hostess was also fantastic … the bartender & waiter are absolute gems … I also met Brad & Chris at the bar while waiting for George … we talked and I shared my story … Brad bought me a bourbon and we all toasted to life … it was such a beautiful experience … new people and my long time friend … a stupendous lunch … I highly recommend Il Bacco … you will absolutely be satisfied … LIVE LOVE LAUGH & EAT ALWAYS … ????#CancerFree2024 #EyeOnTheFuture #LiveLoveLaughAlways #CancerWarrior #cancersurvivor #bestfriendsforever #diningout #ItalianRestaurant“
“Papazzio has this old school, mom and pop restaurant style that I absolutely love. Tonight, my baby and I celebrated our post Valentine's day dinner there.Appetizer's came out promptly, followed by the entrées. The timing was perfect.Service was attentive and professional.We came out tonight for a fine Italian dinner and found one at Papazzio.Keep up the good work. Thank you.“
“The best wine selection for all palates. The food is definitely delicious and more than enough for meals! Your staff waits in you hand and foot with a smile waiting to meet your every need ! Of course your host Anna Maria is the highlight !!!“
“Easily the best Mediterranean restaurant in the area. For that matter on all of Long Island! Spectacular food in a cozy, clean setting. Served by the loveliest family at a reasonable price. When you give Shish Kabob Grill a try you will have no regrets! (5*) Oh! I almost forgot…municipal parking is close by. ?“
“BK Sweeney's is a popular Long Island bar located in Garden City that offers classic American bar fare. During my recent visit, the 'BKS Angus Steakhouse Burger' stood out as a winner for me. It was perfectly cooked, though the fries were a bit bland. However, the service wasn't great - our waitress not only ignored us throughout the entire meal, but also forgot to bring out all three of our appetizers. When we raised it to her attention, she asked if we wanted to take them to-go...who would ever want to get charged and take them to-go? We ended up canceling them entirely. You might be curious about my 4-star rating for this restaurant. Despite this recent hiccup, my previous visits to BK Sweeney's were issue free. I believe it is not fair to penalize the entire business for the actions of one waitress. I'll definitely be returning soon to give it another go.“
“My friends and I went here to celebrate our friend's birthday, and we were immediately swept up in the lively atmosphere the moment we got there. The energetic ambiance, great music, new decor really set the perfect tone for our night out! The manager Alis was so accommodating - he made sure we were taken care of from the start! Our waiter was super attentive, which made my friend feel truly special for her birthday celebration. The food exceeded our expectations - from the appetizer, entree, and dessert! I cannot wait to go back - for a night out again, just for dinner, or even to sit at the bar. This place is amazing - come see for yourself!! Huge thanks to Alis and the team for an unforgettable time!!!“
“I've been passing this restaurant for over 20 years. Such a nice place to dine. The waiters and waitress helpful, friendly. So that made the service great. Nicely decorated and the food was yummy, even the spinach. I enjoyed my time here. I will be back!!! 5 stars for each category!!!“
“We were 3 longtime friends who hadn't seen each other for awhile. Dinner was very relaxed and unrushed. We had pappardelle lobster, shrimp scampi and chicken parm with pasta. All were very good. Service was excellent. Novita never disappoints!“
“We had a small plates dinner with drinks on a Saturday night. We were initially worried because there were only a few people dining, but it picked up shortly after we were seated. Wines are the star - so many to choose of high quality by the glass. Wish they had more flights on the menu. I think the food was the biggest surprise. It was very good and it does not play second fiddle to the wine. Garlic shrimp had a nice kick; fried calamari was on point; and short rib sliders were tasty. Will definitely return for other plates and the charcuterie boards. One drawback was the service - while super friendly, we felt they let you sit a little too long before taking orders.“
