“As always , any establishment owned by Kent has great food and interesting menu. We frequent Heirloom, our local fav, but know BR has varied menu with more fish. We were not disappointed with our choices. Change of scenery always good, and we met someone, our waiter,we recognized from years ago at another favorite local place, Crabby Dan's. A great evening and a fabulous dinner. Thank you.“

“A group of us were recently treated to an evening out at Milton Provisions, a hidden jewel in Rye, NY. The food was exceptional with a healthy farm to table vibe. We were fond of the cozy rustic atmosphere & the warm nature of the staff. Looking forward to returning!!“

“We actually never went to this location before, but had greatly enjoyed their prior second location in Port Washington. Expectaions were right on point. Food was excellent from appetizer to the main course. Maybe it's weird but I kind of respect even the small things like when a restaraunt offers to chose to serve in house brewed ice tea as opposed to something pre processed. The Brisket from todays specials list was perfect. This restaurant is 45min drive from home and well worth the trip. Thank You, we will be back.“

“Customer service was excellent!!!The atmosphere was very beautiful. The food was very delicious.

The experience was everything 💕I will definitely be coming back to try their delicious food.“

“I started off looking for “just a bar” and stumbled across Teddy’s. What I found was a modern interior with a pleasant staff that was willing to accommodate anything and everything. Oyster Bay is not the friendliest place for minorities but genuinely, I feel like I am home at Teddy’s. Thank you!“

“The food was exceptional and servers were wonderful as well The drawback here is the lack of appropriate toilet facilities on the first floor. For those of us with physical challenges , the tsteep staircase presents a hardship. They really should fix this so a wonderful experience will remain that in totality.“

“This was the first time I visited Foster. Being a foodie, very few restaurants impress me. Foster is one of them. The drinks were fantastic, the grilled octopus was amazing for an appetizer and the king salmon was incredible. If you have room for dessert the banana foster is a must! Would definitely recommend!!“

“Great new family restaurant with fantastic vibes. Televisions everywhere. Great bar. Staff and owners create a family environment. We have been there twice in 1 week and they remembered us when we walked in the door the 2nd time. Rueben spring rolls were a must both trips as was the shepard's pie. Meals are huge! Prices are great.“

“During my recent visit to Forest Ave Grill, I found the establishment to be one of the most impeccably maintained delis I have audited. Cleanliness standards are consistently upheld throughout the premises, from the dining area to the self-service coffee station. The tables were spotless and neatly arranged, and the use of QR codes at each table for digital menu access and ordering reflects a thoughtful integration of convenience and modern customer service.

Staff members demonstrated exceptional professionalism and courtesy, contributing to an atmosphere that is both welcoming and service-oriented. The environment evokes a sense of comfort typically associated with upscale dining, which is notably impressive for a deli operation.

Overall, Forest Ave Grill delivers an outstanding customer experience, marked by cleanliness, attentiveness, and innovation. It stands out as a model of excellence in its category and sets a high benchmark for comparable establishments.“

“Celebrated a special birthday with friend/family, always a great meal!“

“Great service but the highlight of this place is the food! Large portions, affordable prices, flavorful and fresh! I've visited this establishment in the past for their margaritas (also recommend), so I was pleasantly surprised that the food was so good! Limited menu options but the chef will also accommodate if needed, highly recommend.“

“Two door is amazing. They have a really good lunch service weekdays (burgers, grilled sandwiches, fries etc. It's not fancy but just really good honest food cooked to order. Chicken parmigiana on Thursday is a local phenomenon as are the Fish and Chips on Friday night. Both nights sell out fast. This place speaks for itself. There are few places with legitimate original character these days. Frequent them, embrace them and support them in all their rustic glory you'll be richer for the experience!“

“great smoothies great wraps great atmospher friendly and polite candy cane smoothie is amazing“

“Been there and the pastry and ice cream is one of a kind. Karaoke Fridayz turned up, not to mention the friendly faces and vibes that makes you feel like you belong. Smoothies and green juice naturally blended.“

“I just had my wedding at the Heritage Club, and the day went perfectly. I met with Mindy when touring the venue, and she was very helpful in explaining all the details, and she remained hands-on throughout the whole process. Everything was set up beautifully, and the events progressed seamlessly. Guests told me that this wedding was the most "on time" and organized wedding they have ever attended. The maitre-d helped make sure everything was going according to plan, and he even made sure we were looking at the right cameras during various events. Janet, the bridal attendant, was also incredibly helpful beyond words. When my husband's button popped off his tuxedo jacket, she sewed it back on within seconds. When lipstick got on my teeth, she appears with a q-tip and some floss. She was always around to help carry my train or give me a glass of water (with a straw!).There was a moment when I was walking with my full train, but by the time I reached the end of a hall, Janet had magically bustled the dress without me even noticing. From a guest-experience perspective, the Heritage Club also went above and beyond. Everyone raved about how full they were from cocktail hour, but then were still amazed by the quality of the seated dinner and passed desserts. The venue itself is also beautiful, with each space having its distinct characteristics. The ballroom in the daylight is breathtaking and airy.“

“The food is 5 star. Just had the grilled pork chops with mushrooms. One of the best I have ever had. The bar staff is awesome. I highly recommend“

“The original chefs left from Hubba Hubba to open their own place and the spot is open until 5 a.m. too! But way cleaner and less sketchy. I always get their chicken cutlet sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes, provolone cheese and chilli. Their chilli is SO spicy and is so special to me because it reminds me of my childhood. I spent so many years trying to eat the chilli when I went there with my dad and sister when I was in elementary school, but it was always too hot. Finally one day I did it!! With Texas water on the side and some chilli cheese fries. Now it's my still my favorite place to get my spicy cravings. And even though my dad doesn't live here anymore, he still wants to go to Texas Chili every time he visits and he always asks me to bring him chilli when I go see him!!!“

“Wow! we’re do i begin, my life was going through a rough patch then this well managed establishment pulled me out of my depression. The management and staff led me to enlightenment and made me the man I am today. The baked potato’s are to die for! Thank u buffalo grille for ur service!!!!!!“

“Crackers is a spot often overlooked as it is on the entrance road to the Roosevelt Field Mall in an office building's first floor. While this coffee shop offers no table service, the cafeteria style ordering gives you a chance to see all the day's offerings and to peruse their menu board. They make great soups, salads, and sandwiches as well as daily hot lunch specials. Often, I would take home lunch for dinner, especially their Swedish Meatballs and Egg Noodles, Sausage and Peppers, and Chicken Francese. The office favorite is their BLT. A nice bonus if you dine in is their dining room. Decorated in rattan and light colors, it feels like the place belongs far south of Long Island. It is a great spot to meet a friend for lunch and catch up on cable News 12. They draw a business crowd, but the line moves so you can enjoy your lunch.“

“I am a vegetarian person who doesn't cook any meat nor boil eggs at home. I have a small puppy at home. I requested them to make me some boiled mince lamb with only tumeric for my puppy which they did give me even though they dont make it for pets. It was made w/o any spices,it was just plain boiled lamb with some tumeric.My puppy really enjoyed her meal. I really appreciate the helpful staff and the chef who went above n beyond to make my puppy happy. I always thought that they make only non vegetarian food but was surprised to see that they also make vegetarian food too. I am ordering Rajma chawal along with some chaats for me today. It'd going to be my favorite place going forward. Once again thank you for making my puppy n me so happy. Appreciate all staff who made it possible.❤❤❤❤❤“

“Title: A Spicy Delight: Chili Dog with Peppers and OnionsI recently had the pleasure of trying the chili dog with peppers and onions from my favorite local hot dog joint, and I must say, it was a true culinary adventure.From the first bite, the flavors exploded in my mouth. The chili was rich, hearty, and had just the right amount of spice to give it a kick without overwhelming the taste buds. It clung perfectly to the juicy, grilled hot dog, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors.But what truly set this chili dog apart was the addition of sautéed peppers and onions. They added a delightful crunch and a burst of freshness to each bite, balancing out the richness of the chili and adding a touch of sweetness.The combination of savory chili, juicy hot dog, and the vibrant crunch of peppers and onions created a symphony of flavors that left me craving more. It's comfort food with a zesty twist, perfect for satisfying those chili dog cravings.Whether you're a die-hard chili dog fan or just looking for a delicious, satisfying meal, I highly recommend giving the chili dog with peppers and onions a try. It's a taste sensation that will leave you coming back for seconds, guaranteed!“
