New American Restaurants near Lake Ronkonkoma, NY

“We have our family dinner there The food is good. Miranda our waitress always does a great job. Thank you !!!“

“Shands is the coziest & most beautiful spot! The ambiance and service was so warm & welcoming upon entering. We had a seat up in front for some prime people watching on the Patchogue strip - it's such a nice change from the Brick House to have those front window tables! Extra points when the windows are open on nice days.

The craftsmanship in each cocktail, appetizer, entree, and dessert are obvious at first glance and later at first bite/sip. I also appreciate the quality offerings of the mocktail menu so those of us that don't drink can still enjoy a social tonic 🫶🏽

Looking forward to being back in town for another visit soon!“

“Food was absolutely fantastic tonight. Actually never had a bad meal here. Worth the price. Service was great too.“

“I really enjoyed having lunch at The Lake House after having dinner there several times in past years. The price fix lunch was delicious and plentiful. The service was excellent. No one rushed us at all. The atmosphere outside was wonderful. I'd definitely go back again for lunch or dinner.“

“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“

“Exactly what that location needed. Great food, excellent happy hour and friendly staff.“

“Can’t recommend this place enough, the food is on point. Some of the best ramen I’ve ever had on the island, if you’re a ramen lover order it. But besides that the cocktails are great, bartenders and servers are friendly and just an overall good vibe. There are a lot of good cocktail bars now in bay shore and this is definitely one of the better ones!“

“….….Best place on earth………“

“Great chicken sandwiches, 3 different ones between us and everyone raved about them and drinks were great!“

“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!“

“Went on a busy Saturday night, it was very hectic in there, but not like in an NYC type of way. Everything was honestly organized, and people were getting their food and drinks in a timely manner. Wasn’t a fan of the “Figgy Smalls”, tasted like medicine, but the Dark Cherry Bourbon Sour was amazing. The Grouper was amazing sitting on top of the risotto, perfect for a fall evening. We will definitely be coming back!“

“Exelente comida y Exelente servicio“

“Been here a couple of times. Once on a date night Thursday with my wife, another time for birthday party on a Saturday night with DJ C Natryl. He created a sick vibe. Can't wait to come back to hear him play again!! Nice little room that really is a gem. :)“

“Great atmosphere, music, and amazing staff!! Food is really delicious! Would definitely come here again and again. 😊💕“

“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 service was great and the ambiance was beautiful!! My chicken Francese could have been better. I was disappointed in that. I really enjoyed the salad and desert!“

“My Husband and I stumble across this place tonight and couldn’t be happier about it! From the moment we walked through the door on a busy Saturday night at 7:00pm we walk in simply based on a great name! The hostess Deanna was lovely and welcoming we were able to sit right away! The food was absolutely amazing and so were the drinks!! But the star of the show was the staff our waitress Emily was the best we have ever had! Just the right amount of attentive that we never looked for her and always felt taking care up. The busser also did an amazing job never a dirty plate on our table. We go out alot and I can’t remember the last time a restaurant covered it all flawlessly Service drinks and food. We have already texted friend excited to bring them here! Can’t wait to come back keep up the amazing work!“

“We met friends for dinner and wow this place did not disappoint!! All of our food selections were off the “What's New and Exciting” section and what a great choice. This section is changed weekly so you know you’ll get some unique selection. Justin was an our waiter and he recommended an amazing dessert Macedonian Cookie make sure you save room for this!“

“Delicious cocktails and food! We all had a difficult time deciding on a meal, everything sound so good! Friendly helpful staff, would totally recommend!“

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

“Haven’t had a burger that good in quite a while…“

“Large bar, big place, lots of tv’s, great space upstairs for private events, cold 🍺 and great food = good times 💫“

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

“It's just an event space. Perfect for meetings and medium sized events. There was food served but it was catered by someone other then owners.

Parking: Location was difficult to find parking and the way the parking lot is very difficult to maneuver“

“Recently celebrated our daughter’s 1st Birthday here. After researching many venues in the area we landed with the Grille. Jenn (the event coordinator) was extremely friendly, professional and informative from the moment I called her to inquire about the space. The venue is a dual space. You have the catering room as well as the bar area where there are pool tables and a dart board. Perfect for our guests in their 20s. The food and staff were amazing. I cannot rave enough about Amy, Jenn, Steve, Ernesto and Sabrina. They were all so helpful and accommodating during our event. Jenn was extremely attentive and made sure we had all our desires fulfilled, up until the morning of the party. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this establishment. Book them! You won’t regret it!“

“Just found out the cafe has a menu full of gluten free options and tried it out. Amazing place and food was delicious! They have gluten free toast, buns, soups, desserts. My husband was excited to be able to have so many choices in a beautiful restaurant. Thank you! We'll be back for sure!“

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

“The food is delicious in large portions, waitress is attentive and knowledgeable, very nice atmosphere.“

“I can go on and on about the famous lobster rolls here but what truly sets Jackson Hall apart is their impeccable service. The staff is attentive without being overbearing. Our waitress, Nicole was so incredibly friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food she serves, Whether it’s your first visit or you're a regular, Nicole will make sure every detail is taken care of with a smile and great recommendations for next time, and trust me there will be SO many “next times.” If you’re in the mood for incredible seafood, a warm atmosphere, and top-tier service, Jackson Hall should be at the top of your list. 10/10 and yes i’m bringing my dog for the patio hangs and their dog menu.“

“Dined in, or outside actually. It nicely set up out back with some yard games and a big screen. Food was better than the usual fast food genre. Fries,wings and burgers were all fresh.Extra points for getting our order correct, would come back if in the area.“

“We,my family,love going here..food is great..staffs very nice,service is good n atmosphere very good..you see many people who also come,have been,for a long time..to eat..talk and relax amongst friends.its ThaT kinda place! So..go ahead..I love the Waffle myself..Soo damn good!!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Sui's is a solid choice for standard chinese- american food. As a spare ribs, broccoli and fried rice guy, I can say that Sui's does the 'regular' dishes aa well as pretty much anyone else - glad that they are my neighborhood chinese place.“

“Great food, drinks, atmosphere and live music venue.“

“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.“

“Amazing food, staff and 🍸high-quality restaurant/bar“

“Great place. Thank you from the US Military Vet MC“

“10/10 beautiful place, love the whole vibe of it there!! Went there for costume bingo night with 106.1 bli ally ali and had a wonderful time!! Foods delicious and love that they have games there and scenery is beautiful!! Will be coming back again!!“

“I ordered online to pick up and my service dropped so I called back. The same gentleman answered and was very nice and patient, took my order and I forgot to ask for salt, pepper and ketchup on my egg sandwich and he kindly asked if I wanted to add it so kudos for the attention to detail. I arrived and parking is sufficient and it’s right off the main road so it’s easy to access. The Chinese lady greeted me at the counter and was genuinely nice and warm toned and asked if I was there for pick up. My breakfast was ready and she rung me up for $6 and offered me a free coffee which I declined. They sue take debit with a $5 minimum and they use a modern payment device so no pin is needed if you don’t mind that and paying is instant so no waiting on that end either, I was in and out in less then 3 min. The place had a decent amount of seating and was very clean and the customers seemed to be enjoying themselves. This place is a winner and sets the bar high for the other establishments in the area. I ordered an everything bagel with 2 fried eggs, sausage and pepper jack cheese (my only critique would be that they did put a very thin slice of cheese I would have liked to taste more of it) and it was delicious. Thanks again Bagel Express I will be back!!**** I wanted to mention I did NOT get napkins so not a big deal most places throw a few in the bag so I have been spoiled, just a note to management ****“
