50 Best Salad Restaurants near Island Park

“Wonderful little spot; love they are family owned and operated.“

“The flavor is definitely different from the usual chicken over from most NYC locations. It’s delicious and hit the right spot! Definitely recommend you try their Mount Vernon, NY location. The Chef there is amazing and always polite on the phone when taking orders.“

“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!“

“Yet another amazing visit at Village Greens in Rockville centre! First off I love that one of the owners is there working and greeting you. He is always so kind and helpful. It’s a beautiful, clean place with indoor and outdoor seats available. But let’s get to the good stuff. I always try to visit for their new specials, even though I’m visiting from out of town. Their fall specials right now are sooo good! The fall steak is something I could definitely eat everyday. Then they have the goin’ apple salad and pumpkin protein smoothie. There is never one bad thing here. Oh and I grabbed a raspberry bar by the counter on my way out and I can’t believe that’s gluten free because it tasted way too good!! Can’t wait to come back next time I’m in town!“

“Great experience at the Chopt location in Garden City, NY. I had the pleasure of having Karla assist me today and she was above and beyond friendly and accommodating to me and my requests!! She also has nice nails lol! I got the chicken Caesar wrap; no croutons with beets and it’s an appropriate serving size and ingredient taste fresh!“

“Music was a bit too loud but food and service made up for it Reasonably priced menu Waitress Lucia was really cool and fun!“

“This restaurant doesn't follow the crowd. We only sampled a small portion, which was satisfactory. Though compact, this place commands attention. The personnel provided rapid assistance with proper respect. I feel lucky to have visited this place!“

“We recently ordered from Exotic Kreations for a 60 person bbq/party. We ordered their Pasta Salad and Fruit Salad for the party and I ordered a small size of their Shrimp and Crab Salad and their Chicken Salad for my family.
Everything was amazing! Hands down, All of the salads were the best we have ever had. These are not your regular salads you buy at a food store. They were all made to order and I highly recommend Exotic Kreations to anyone looking for a fresh, amazing and delicious experience! Also, the owners are terrific people who were super friendly and very helpful with recommendations.“

“Love Just Salad! This location definitely had its growing pains since it first opened. At first, the service was slow and the employee engagement was poor. This seems to have changed, I met Luis the manager and things seem like they are running well! Rams made my salad and didn’t an excellent job - made sure it was made to my liking and was engaging throughout. Great job turning this location around!“

“Delicious and flavorful! Love the falafel! Pita chips are so good! Juices and teas are so refreshing! I’d eat here everyday!“

“The food was amazing. The service superb! What more could you want??!! This was our first time here - and we definitely will be back - loved it!“

“Great Vibe. Friendly and welcoming! Food is Devine. The Crispy Duck and sticky coconut rice is my go to favorite.

And If you like coconut You must have their pudding!

Drinks are just as YUMMY.

Parking can be a little tough but so worth it.
The menu is FILLED with so many options. Menu is in the form
of a large 📕. Try them all , amazing food.“

“Had a great time, great food and good beers 🍺“

“I love this place. It has amazing Venezuelan empanadas, patacones, arepas rellenas, and so much more. On weekends, you can enjoy hervidos 🥰 I come here ever time I can and it brings me back ❤️❤️❤️ customer service is excellent. If you have never tried Venezuelan food, you should order the combos. If you need to bring something to a summer party, bring a bunch of tequeños. The kids will eat them by the dozen.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Dining Experience
My daughter Victoria and I stopped by this Olive Garden at 1246 Old Country Road, and we had a wonderful experience. Our server, Ariana, was excellent—very attentive, friendly, and professional. The manager, Margarita, was also amazing and made sure everything was perfect.
The food was delicious and came out very fast, which we truly appreciated. We enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and the outstanding attention we received throughout our visit.
We definitely will be coming back. Highly recommended!“

“I LOVE their food.
I haven't had anything that I haven't enjoyed. They’re happily accommodating with my substitutions. That makes me feel that they care that I enjoy my meal. I appreciate that.
It's a family run business and the heart and soul that they put into everything shows. Worth a try if you’re looking for food that tastes so good you forget it's healthy!“

“My go to place for special occasions. Mike always makes us feel at home. Not only is the food fantastic, but the staff is helpful and kind. They even went out of their way to help my handicap mother get in and out of the car! Food is delicious and tons of variety when compared to the standard Italian restaurant. Great portions and even a decent amount of healthy options. Thank you to the staff for making my night even more special!“

“This sushi spot is fantastic! The food is always fresh and delicious, and my daughter absolutely loves the sushi here. The manager is very friendly and always goes out of his way to make sure everything is perfect. Great service and great atmosphere — definitely one of our favorite places!“

“Enjoyed brunch today w/ my daughter we both enjoyed everything!!! Definitely going back the horchata was AMAZING!! So was the service !“

“Love love love The “Spot” as I affectionately call it! Hands down THE best juice bar in NYC!“

“Good food not excellent service“

“Awesome staff and excellent pizza!“

“We had our daughter’s first birthday here and they knocked it out of the park. Anthony and John and the rest of the staff are awesome. Food was incredible. Highly recommended!“

“Excellent service food drink and ambience whether date night family night or flying solo. Italian Bistro done right. Took ole neighborhood lifetime pal Nick D'Agostino from the infamous Venezia de Notte on Central Ave in Yonkers and he dug L&P big time.“

“The first 2 times I went there I had the yogurt
and a coffee which was very good. The problem is the yogurt or even the coffee I like are not always available.
Despite the fact that they have a big “We
Now have yogurt” sign in front of the store.
It’s a bit annoying but I think I’ll try them again.

“Delicious!!! My first time here and I am without a doubt coming back! Staff was attentive although they were busy. Very professional. Can I add that the food they were preparing smelled amazing! My pictures don’t do the justice of how well prepared my bowl was. My first one and delicious!!“

“Awesome Lebanese food in the heart of West Hempstead. The restaurant is clean and cozy, the atmosphere is relaxing. We ordered kafta, spinach pies, safihas, marinated steak and chicken, and baba ganoush. They were fresh and delicious. This place is a real gem!!“

“The food is here is by far one of the more reliable places to get Asian Cuisine. The food is not overly fried or heavily seasoned. We come here occasionally after the dog park visit, and we have yet to be disappointed. The wonton soup is a must have, better than anywhere else I have tried. The prices are also very good. Normally I have something criticizing to say but I genuinely appreciate this place for a cheat night. You won’t feel guilty with the fun of take out. The place is small and there isn’t anywhere to eat if you wanted. The customer service is good, however you will need to wait in your car because there isn’t much room to wait inside and no where to sit. Give it a try. Photo is my wife pounding down one of their egg rolls because she can’t wait till we get home (Not oily at all). As healthy as Chinese food can probably get in NYC.“

“I absolutely loved my experience here—from the food to the service to the atmosphere, everything was on point. The kitchen was quick without sacrificing quality; our chicken poppers, rib eye, and shared burger all came out bursting with flavor. Honestly, I wanted to keep eating, but I was happily stuffed. Still, dessert was non-negotiable—I made sure to save a little room, and I’m glad I did!

The vibe of the place is lively and fun, with an atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer just to soak it in. And the service? Truly next level. Friendly, attentive, and effortless.

This spot is the kind of place you leave already planning your return visit. I’ll definitely be back for round two!“

“Excellent food and service. A+++++“

“I stopped by “That No Good Burger Joint” for lunch yesterday and extremely surprised at the customer service and the menu filled with options. I ordered a triple smash cheeseburger with the fries and washed it all down with 2 flat tires. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to friend and family and would plan to go back soon. The burger was cooked to perfection and the fries were just right. The server was extremely attentive and made sure my and my cousin were well taken care. I would give this restaurant a 10/10 no question.“

“Outstanding pizza and wings. Ice cold beer. Great atmosphere and service is top notch“

“BEST PIZZAREA IN NEW YORK HANDS DOWN“

“Phenomenal pizza and friendly staff. Plus, they have Dr. Pepper and Gold Peak Tea. Can’t wait to return! 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“🍔🍔🍔THE BEST SO FRESH AND DELICIOUS“

“Their pizza is the bomb! My compliments to the chef. The two gentlemen were very pleasant and courteous. The presentation of the pizza was neat and lovely. On my drive home from the restaurant, the smell was awesome, and I couldn't wait to get home, so I could dig in! The pizza tasted as great as it smelled. I will be visiting them again as soon as possible.
Just to update: I have visited them 3 times since my first time and I have to say their pizzas are great! I've tried three different varieties, and you can taste the difference being that it's halal, you can taste the difference in how healthy the ingredients are, you're getting better quality ingredients and better quality food. I take time out to drive miles to them just have their food because the service and the atmosphere it's always great they're so pleasant with you, they treat their customers like they're family that they haven't seen in a long time that they missed. The chef Gurbinder does a fantastic job and the presentation is always great.“

“Smash House 5 Towns delivers on what matters most: quality ingredients, bold flavor, and a clean, modern environment. The burger was exceptionally well-prepared, juicy, flavorful, and thoughtfully assembled. I opted for the crispy onions on the side instead of fries, and they were outstanding, perfectly crisp and seasoned, a refreshing alternative to the usual.
The service was efficient and courteous, and the overall atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming.
My only critique is the portion size relative to the price point. While the quality is undeniably high, the burger itself felt somewhat modest in size. A slightly more generous portion would bring the overall value more in line with expectations.
That said, I would absolutely return. Smash House is a great addition to the 5 Towns dining scene and well worth a visit for anyone who appreciates a well-executed burger experience.“

“We woke up early on a snowy Sunday and changed our plans because of the weather, so we decided to look for a breakfast spot instead. We had passed this place many times, and since it had great reviews, we finally decided to give it a try. What a great decision.

Any review that says the food is bland must be biased, because this was one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The whipped cream tasted like it was freshly made. The whiskey pancakes were incredibly flavorful, with perfectly spiced raisins and apple slices mixed right in. The Hungry Farmer’s plate—with eggs, cheese, bacon, and sausage all together—was like a circus in your mouth.

This will definitely be our new go-to breakfast place when we want to splurge a little. The prices are basically the same as a diner, so why go to a crappy diner when you can eat at such a pretty, spacious restaurant?“

“I love their pizzas. They have a brick oven that they make their pizzas in and it really brings out the authenticity of the pizza. Their pizzas are sized just for you to eat. You have a choice of ordering a bigger/“regular” sized pizza that you’d often see at other pizza places but their pizza size makes it so easy for you to just eat that by yourself and go. One recommendation for when you go is definitely the bbq chicken pizza! I love the bbq chicken pizza. I get it all the time but it may be a little too sweet for some as said by others that have tried the pizza but i dont think you can go wrong with bbq chicken pizza even if you do find it a bit sweet.“

“With so many options in the area, it would seem crazy to suggest that Kaiyo could possibly set itself apart. I mean, it's not like the menu is wildly original or anything. However, somehow, Kaiyo's fish selection finds itself absolutely on another level. Sashimi heads rejoice.“

“I was in route to another Thai restaurant and came across this place first and then I decided to make a U-turn and go in and get some drunken noodles.
The place was so beautiful and the staff was so friendly and welcoming I also love the atmosphere and ambience it has a dine in option,
However I just came in for takeout.
The food is made to order and they ask what level of spice would you like. Which is what I love the most,
The portions are great enough to feed 2/ people,
I also like the fact that they make everything fresh and it doesn’t take long for the food to be cooked.
I was so impressed with this restaurant that I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR ANY TIME OF THE DAY!!!!
I ordered the chicken drunken noodles and I had them before from California to all over NYC and this place reigns supreme.
Give them a try and thank me later!!
This is my new favorite gem.
Gonna be back sooner than later.“

“My buddy and I went to dinner at the Grand Stage Diner on 4/10/24 prior to the Islanders game. The diner was clean, the hostess was very nice and friendly and the wait staff was excellent. We each ordered burgers w/ fries. I have to say it was one of the best cheeseburgers I ever had at a diner. Food was hot, perfectly cooked. Superb! I would definitely go back. Thank for for a great dining experience.“

“Just ate here for the first time last night - a friend highly recommended it. The food was amazing - we had two poke bowls, chicken teriyaki, vegetable fried rice, shumai, Chicken negimaki - everything delicious. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Tonight I just wanted appetizers ordered chicken wings original and mozzarella sticks. Not disappointed everything was hot and delicious upon delivery. Give them a try!“

“I come in randomly. I consider my self a pizza snob. it's better and cheaper then Ginos. My pizza was crispy each time I got it bottom not burned and my pizza was very flavorful. It makes me smile to get pizza here when I was younger this spot was Bel-Air pizza and it was horrible I'm happy a great pizza place is in this spot now the regular slice is awesome And Margarita slice but my favorite is the ala vodka grandma slice thank you for great pizza“

“Hubby and I went there last night for first time. Great experience, amazing food and nice crowd. This is going to be our new go to spot on fridays.“

“Great Cuban food, great staff.. you should go!“

“Great place! Fantastic food and super nice staff. Great prices to especially for a restaurant on the Mile. Have eaten here many times. Food is always great.“

“Visiting from Florida. I had the best Cuban Sandwich ever! My wife had the shrimp burger, and she loved it. Great service, and the owners are great! Highly recommend giving it a try.“
