“Went with gf had great time from the pretzel croissant to the amazing flowerless cake everything was delicious. Has great view of port Jeff. Staff is friendly Deff going back. And offer seasonal menu“

“I did a take out order at the East Islip location. The food was good but the super melts do not seem to have much meat on them like they use to. If the prices are going up with less portions that’s going to be a problem for Friendly’s. I would hate to see them go out of business because I love Friendlys too!!“

“good burger. clean. friendly. nobody annoyed me. that's a miracle“

“Our family enjoyed a birthday dinner at this beautiful restaurant. Our waiter was so pleasant and accommodating. He was very knowledgeable about the ingredients, especially since we had some allergies at the table. The food was spectacular! The strawberry salad was a delicious and fresh way to start my decadent courses. The salmon was divine, accompanied by a heavenly risotto. I know how challenging it is to make a good risotto, and they absolutely nailed it. The chocolate flourless Nutella cake was the perfect ending to an amazing meal. Thank you for making this birthday so special!💕“

“Had the best private party experience! We booked my sister's 30th surprise party this past weekend and the staff was excellent and accommodating as well as the event coordinators we were in contact with prior to the event. I highly recommend booking a party here!“

“The eggplant was delicious“

“I want to start by saying the buffalo chicken egg rolls are the best and I mean THE BEST Buffalo chicken egg rolls I have ever had. I got garlic parm wings as my main and they were also delicious. Came on a weekend and it was very busy with live music so make reservations!“

“The restaurant food and service was very good. However, no one likes to be served a martini in a champagne glass. It’s like drinking out of a bowl of soup. You should serve your martinis in the proper glasses.“

“My wife and I had dinner here at Applebee's in Brentwood. The waitress Val was horrible no personality, only came to us to get our order and pay the bill. We will not be returning here to eat ever. Beware everyone of Val no professional skills. In the wrong field of service.“

“Great food. Great atmosphere. Great music. Great people.“

“Love this bar so much. My friends and I go there all the time after our gigs, and the server Joanne always takes such good care of us. The food is delicious, the vibes are cozy, and everything is super clean. A great place to have a drink or bring your loved ones!

Vegetarian options: Not a veg heavy menu, but I'm sure if you asked for options they would make something for you. It's just that kind of place.

Parking: Parking can be tough, especially on the weekends.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly“

“Crystal A is the nicest server ever!! I tried boneless wings for the first time and she asked what kind of sauce. I had no idea. Brought me all of them on the side. Tolerated my mild over sharing and accepted my high five offer. Give her a raise now!!!“

“Love this place!!! Decorated beyond for every holiday, great food and excellent service. My daughter’s compliments to the chef!!!! 🌹💞💌“

“Very nice people and good food.“

“The initial bartender was very slow to acknowledge me at the bar - there were only four of us customers at the bar total, so it's not like I was lost in a sea of people. The shift change brought better service. All in all, it was everything I expected from a TGIF. I'd go back.“

“I went to this location with my family. The food was good my husband had the steak and it was cooked perfectally. Ihad the ribs they were delish. Our waitress Anna was so sweet respectful, professional and responsive. The staff all seemed to be having a good time. The atmosphere was upbeat. Thanks Anna for being so kind to my grandaughter! And thanks for all the crayons!!!“

“My new favorite restaurant! Everything is delicious and the staff is incredible.“

“Very good food.. great service.. will be back..😉“

“We had dinner there tonight for the first time and it will not be our last. Absolutely adorable back room ambiance and both the food and the service were fantastic! Bella was our waitress and she was outstanding. Patient, extremely knowledgeable and helped us explaining many menu items helping us make our selections. The food was sooooo good. Homemade cornbread to die for. I would give the truffle macaroni and cheese was a 10!!! The garlic Parmesan wings delicious and also the spinach and artichoke pizzetta. We had white sangria that was awesome as well as apple crumb pie Ala mode. Every single item was really honestly so delicious!!!! We enjoyed our experience and will definite back again!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice place in Port Jefferson Village, delicious coffee.“

““The food is absolutely outstanding, the service is incredible, and Chef Mike is one of a kind. Do yourself a favor — if you’re in the area, stop in. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“I go here all the time with my friends we enjoy the place the workers are nice and positive and very fun to talk to and very out going. Michelle is the best one the food here is also amazing I love their waffle fries and the boneless wings.“

“To start my review, I just wish there were more stars in the food and service category. Trio deserves 10 ⭐'s for both.This restaurant handles two types of food service, restaurant seating and catering for small to large parties. I've now experienced both. My most recent was a repast after a funeral. When everyone is emotional, the last thing the family needs is problems with the food service. Well, in our case, more people showed up than were originally expected. The staff at Trio didn't miss a beat. They set up additional tables in a flash and quickly had the tables set. We had buffet style dining and the selection was outstanding, with something for everyone. From soup to nuts, everything was delicious. They had fish, beef, vegetarian selections and even offered coffee and dessert. (by the way, if I had known how good the desserts would've been, I might have eaten a little less dinner.)The service is impeccable, everything is clean and fresh, the linens and tablecloths were spotless.I'd like to add that Trio is on the grounds of the Holbrook Country Club. You can grab lunch and drinks after you play, just show up and they accommodate parties of all sizes. You won't be disappointed!“

“The food is always fresh and deliciously prepared. Staff and owners are very friendly and accomodating for dietary restrictions (gluten free). Good bar too.“

“The tasty food options are always changing, with some favorite staples remaining. The cocktails are also seasonal, which I love. Ambience is cozy and quirky. They're in between locations right now so no liquor license, but they let us know ahead of time and we were more than happy to BYOB (and in my case a premixed Manhattan—they provided me with a coupe glass and ice to shake my cocktail). Looking forward to checking them out on Main Street soon.“

“Stopped in to kill time while my phone was being repaired. I had the steak sandwich that was unbelievably delicious, couple bloody Mary’s which were incredible.
The staff greeted you with smiles and were very friendly.
And from 10am-5pm is happy hour so certain drinks are two for one which you cannot beat.
I can’t wait to try the entire menu :-)“

“Went on a Tuesday night which happened to be Karaoke night. It was a fun evening with a full house of people of all ages. I had the Lobster Bisque (excellent) and the fried clams, also good. I intend to make it a regular stop. It is outdoor dining only.“

“Enjoy every time we go delicious“

“Went to the Northport location this morning. I had the Tex-Mex Benny Bowl. Loved it! Something different, our server Karen was outstanding. Attentive, without being annoying. Even had my favorite hot sauce, highly recommend.“

“We just had our daughter’s Sweet 16 party at Butterfields, and it could not have been better! All our guests loved the delicious food and the lovely decor. The entire staff was friendly, accommodating, and professional. Highly recommend!“

“Everything was so delicious“

“Absolutely loved this restaurant. The food was so yummy we didn't have time to snap a picture. Two pitchers of mimosa, huevos ranchero was perfect so delicious ? even the kid's chicken tenders and fries, they devoured it (I stole a tender too haha).Customer service here is top tier and our server was the best! The vibe is amazing, everyone was so friendly. Will definitely visit again!!“

“Our meal at Chatter's was great! The service was top-notch, thanks to Amanda. The food was served quickly and the presentation was great. Amanda really impressed us with her customer service skills! Chatter's is lucky to have such a dedicated staff member.“

“the fish bowls are such a good drinking investment lol !!“

“I took my mom here as I wanted to take her out on a date together. My mom deserves to get out and enjoy the lovely weather we have been getting up in the Long Island area. We came to this spot (by the way it's called "American Standard"). I think the bar/restaurant change the name.This spot offers live music, we enjoyed a guitarist play during the course of our stay here.We ordered the alligator fritters as our appetizer and catfish poh boy with a burger that had all kinds of galore in it.The food was fantastic, very delicious. The alligator fritters was phenomenal. It's rare to find a bar/restaurant to offer alligator in this area as there aren't any alligators or crocodiles nearby. It was well cooked, not dry. The dish presentation was cute.The meal was very filling as the burgers came with fries or side salad. The poh boy came with the same option, but my mom ordered salad. The food portions were perfect.The spot also offers a wide selection of alcohol, including many choices of craft beer. I highly recommend coming here to have a good time. It's very causal.“

“My daughter, granddaughter and I went there for an early dinner. Our server Joanne and the food made our experience really nice. Thank you very much.“

“Ford's Garage delivers a fun, auto-themed dining experience with solid burgers and a vast beer selection. The unique decor stands out, though some find prices high. Service was great and the atmosphere was quite unique. The food quality was consistent and delicious. I recommend!!“

“Last Wednesday I was at Davis vision works and we walk to the restaurant for lunch whem we get the we were standing up for almost 15 minutes waiting for someone to give us a table. finally whem someone come to us and without asking if we need a table rigth away he say is was 15 mint wait, me while the restaurant wasn't even packed it was a lot of table empty and even like that he was going to make us to wait more. really bad service and rude attention. we have money to pay it wasn't like we were asking for a free table. people are really racist at this place. I don't recommend“

“We've had great experiences at Nu. It's a quiet spot, usually, and the food is really great. We always get filet mignon or their pork chop, which is fabulous. Their wine list is great, and the service is always top notch. I'm kind of a snob when it comes to service. I like to have great service but also be left alone, which is exactly what they do. The servers have always been attentive and professional. They know what to recommend and can advise you on the menu. I have to repeat. Their food is GREAT! although I do always order the filet mignon. It's the best .“

“ordered through slice and no where did it mention that I was ordering personal Pizzas. Ordered 2 pies thinking it would be enough for the whole family. Ended up having to order another pie from else where. Checked their website and it doesn't say anything about the size of the pizza either. pizza was good but I feel robbed“

“I had an issue on uber eats where my food wasn’t made correctly from a separate location. I called and honestly wasn’t the kindest at first because I thought I wasted my money. Both the worker at the front and Kevin the owner were so so kind despite it and helped this issue and made me a new order for half off. They were extremely kind and caring and I apologized over and over for my mistake as I also didn’t realize it was a separate location. They were so kind and so helpful I really appreciate their help as well as how this was handled.“

“Great restaurant ‼️💕🦋💕Beautifully decorated and the food was delicious ❤️“

“Great place for the kids and family. My son had an amazing birthday 🥳 we love this place.“

“….….Best place on earth………“
