“Just had an RVC fire department brunch here. Jackie Amato is amazing as the event coordinator, patient, kind and so wonderful to work with. We had the brunch buffet and omelet station. The food was delicious and plentiful. The staff and servers were outstanding, helpful and so genuinely kind. They were so willing to help set up our centerpieces and couldn't do enough to make everything so special. Our bartender Victor was off the charts amazing. The room was beautiful and bright. I would have another event there tomorrow if I could. Thank you EGP.“

“My husband and I love DOX. Not only do we love the atmosphere, the view, the food, and drinks but what we love the most are the staff! I wish I knew everyone's name because I would give them all a shout out. Our server, whom we have followed wherever she goes (that is probably one of the main reasons we frequent DOX now that I am thinking about it), Dana, is super! She is attentive and genuinely cares about her customers. She remembers our names, what we like to drink, and what we usually order for food. Dana makes us feel welcome every time we see her, with a smile on her face. Thank you Dana for always making us feel at home at DOX! Great job!“

“I’m just shy of 50 and this is my first time in LI while residing in NY my entire life. My gf and I came down from Saratoga last minute after our trip to Lauderdale was canceled. We thank Jimmy Hays, his awesome staff and friendly local regulars for their hospitality and overall friendliness. We sat at the bar, felt like I was home at my local favorite establishment. Hands down the best meal we had in town and time spent. I would come down for this experience again & again now that I know where to go! Joe Cox, Saratoga NY“

“Yummy the best sea 🌊 food“

“First time here and not my last!! Food, drinks and atmosphere were great! Sat at the bar and met the owner and he was great guy!!!“

“First time coming here to try the hub it was amazing. The experience for me was top 10. The people at service are very respectful polite and the customer service was top tier. I appreciate them. And the food was banging on top of that loaded fries was amazing. The burgers had a bunch of flavour. The only thing that I’m upset about is that they’re not on Uber Eats And that they don’t have other locations, no restaurant, but hopefully Inshallah they expand great food great service And would love to come here again on many occasions in the future“

“The local TGIFridays I had been going to for 10+ years closed down. I decided to travel abit further out to go to Friday’s “one last time.” But my server Fabia changed my mind. She was friendly and funny. Told me about recent updates to the menu and the food was as good as always. My experience made me realize that traveling a bit further wont be so bad after all.“

“Love this restaurant. Lively, amazing, full of people, and the commotion overall has a really positive tone to it. All the people and waiters are patient, the food came at a relatively reason time, and there wasn’t a long wait time for seating even on a friday night. All the TVs were showing the hottest sports games and this restaurant overall is a great place. Highly recommend you spend a dinner here, you won’t regret it.“

“I experienced Nettie’s for the first time last evening. My dining experience was excellent from arrival to departure. The food was “DELISH!” The owner was welcoming & hospitable, the service was good, and the music and atmosphere wea awesome! I am so pleased and proud to have a “Black” owned establishment where you can dine in Queens in a tasteful environment, supporting our entrepreneurs and our community. I, along with others will be back!!!“

“Wanted to try a new spot for brunch w/the Mrs and this restaurant DID NOT disappoint. It was 11:30AM and the professionalism and greeting still felt like it was an evening date vibe. Our waitress Ashley, was patient and knowledgeable. She guaranteed I would like the Honey Garlic wings and they were the highlight of the night. Not taking away from the regular and Baileys Chicken and Waffles fresh and delicious taste. Needless to say we will be repeat customers. Possibly become regulars.“

“We have been dining here for 30 years and its still outstanding! They have great food at great prices and its always a delicious meal. We were here on Saturday Sept 21 with my brother and sister in law. We shared everything. The octopus, tuna sashimi pizza and roasted beet salad were really good! So were the shrimp tacos and our entrees. We had drinks at the bar before dinner and it was very comfortable and friendly. The bartender was quick and very competent. This place always has great food and service at very affordable prices. They also did a wonderful job for our daughters bridal shower when we took over the restaurant on a weekend morning! They are always professional and warm and welcoming too!“

“We go to Seasons 52 often. Food is pretty good. Love the flatbreads. Like the open kitchen. They used to have a piano player at the bar, which we miss. Service is always good and friendly. The only negative is it's sometimes hard to find parking in that giant lot as it's part of a mall and a movie theater. But, they do have valet.“

“From NC and my boi Terrell suggested here. Food and ambience was absolutely incredible!! Will definitely come back!“

“I wanted to Thank Everyone at the Sunrise Diner for all the years they made my Parents feel like family whenever they went there. My Father has since passed but my Sister took my Mother there today and they gave my Mom hugs, told her they loved her and how cute she was. I was in tears when I heard this from my Sister. I am so Happy that my Mom has this place to go to to get out and feel so loved by so many. Over the years the Sunrise Diner has been a very Happy Place to go to. The service is the best we've ever had. They've treated my Family like Family. I cannot thank the People at the Sunrise Diner enough! They mean so much to my Family. And you can't beat their food!!! I've never had a bad meal their. Love all of you. Hope to get back to Wantagh soon and see you all! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH♥️“

“This is my parents’ favorite restaurant in Long Beach so we order from here every time we visit. The family special is unreal!!! The food, the top-notch quality, the offerings - a big platter of eggplant Parmesan and their crispy fried chicken, with cauliflower on the side, big Mexican salads, and even caramel ice cream for dessert. Always reliably five stars. Fed all six of us and was such a treat. Can’t wait for next time.

5 stars!!!!“

“We had such an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious the staff was so friendly and attentive. It’s now my third time there and can’t wait to go back!“

“Absolutely fantastic! Impeccable food and service and the place is a plus: elegant and unique atmosphere. An added bonus is the outdoor dining area with great view to the golf course.“

“Volunteered and attended a fund raiser event. Their wifi strength is great which is important for soliciting donations electronically. Parking lot is right across the street and has plenty of room. I think they also have another parking lot a little further down. Staff were very helpful in set and serving food. Ushers provided to help guide prople“

“Great place For food,drinks and an amazing staff.what a great crowd always!“

“I rated everything 4stars but put it together & it's a SOLID 5 STARS

A WIDE MENU. A NICE CROWD. Fun to eat at the bar or grab a quick lunch.

Salads, Burgers, appetizers... a lot better than fast food at a not much higher price.

It's fast& easy lunch.

I rediscovered Applebee's recently& I am very glad I did.

“My family wanted to try a new place for dinner this weekend and Jamesons was it. The atmosphere is warm and inviting so we felt comfortable the moment we walked in. Our waitress Sarah was great...super friendly and made us feel right at home. We ordered the French Onion soup (excellent) and Pretzel Sticks (ok) as appetizers. The French Onion soup ($12) was very delicious but the pretzel sticks ($12) we probably wouldnt order again. There were 2 Pretzels to the order which my wife and I thought was a little pricey for what they were. My 7 year old ordered the chicken fingers and fries which were better than I had expected them to be. My wife ordered the Fish and Chips ($25) - super tasty, very fresh, and cooked to perfection. I ordered the Reuben ($24) super yummy which was a special for the evening. My wife and I both agreed after sharing that both meals were excellent. Key Lime Pie and a cappuccino finshed us off both of which did not disappoint. Overall, food and presentation were top notch and the service was excellent ---Thanks again Sarah! My wife and I both felt it was a little pricey but we would definitely go back.“

“Just went to Greek City Grille and ordered the chicken souvlaki platter with lemon potatoes. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the lemon potatoes were absolutely amazing. The staff was extremely friendly and the place was so clean and decorated beautifully. Will definitely be coming back!“

“We loved this place! (I came here a while ago, so the food names may not be accurate, sorry!)

The food was HUGE. The burritos we got were like 2 times the size that we had imagined.

Service was pretty fast and the waiters were very polite and friendly, but they accidentally gave me diet Fanta, and they said they realized they didnt have any more Fanta. I dont blame them, though. It’s not really their fault.

Atmosphere was cozy and creative i loved the decorations.“
