“Our group had a wonderful experience at Sullivan’s Quay. Delicious food, cocktails and great service. Thank you Brian and crew! We will be back!💕“

“Was hungry, so I went out by myself.
Ordered 1/2 $ appetizers (10pm on).
- Chicken nuggets (Asian flavor)
- Chicken quesadilla

Nuggets were fine. Accompanying Ranch dressing was disappointing, so waitress brought me blue cheese dressing (better!)

Lost a star on the Quesadilla as the IRL version looked so unlike their advertised version. Will add photos for difference. Forgot to take IRL photo upon it/their arrivals, but you can definitely see the lack of advertised components.
Flavor was tasty, but lack of innards meant less filling, so I wound up ordering a second Quesadilla. (Though I took >50% home)

Tipped based on the full appetizer amount. My waitress was very nice, professional and helpful.“

“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.“

“Louie’s has an extensive menu where can’t go wrong with anything on there! The service is quick and very friendly. I tend to get something different every time. It’s bar far my favorite diner.“

“I went there for my friends retirement party. It was fantastic. The food service n decor was A+. The appetizer dinner m dessert was pre selected but it was delicious n suitable. I choose the chicken cacciatore. It came was mash n long string beans DELICIOUS..The dessert was a trio of little renditions of strawberry cheesecake, chocolate moose cake. Carrot cake. And conoli . Everything was perfect“

“Husband & I were in the area & decided to stop in for lunch today & glad we did. I had the Lamb Gyro, came w/french fries & Beef Barley soup. Soup was delicious. Gyro had plenty of meat (lamb) w/lettuce, tomatoes & onions. All very fresh. Husband had Falafel which he said was absolutely delicious. We had a great lunch. The staff were very nice and attentive & restaurant was cheerful & clean. We will definitely be coming back to try their dinner next time. Highly recommend Opa Grille.“

“Went to my great nieces birthday and Baptism; Charlotte is 1 year old! Apparently, Wellington Grill is being rented as a special catering event location.
Very clean, lots of windows, 2 large rooms including a full bar on one side. A couple of areas for hors douerves and buffet or sit down dinner.
Food was amazing! You choose the menu!
I'd definitely rent this place for an event, party!“

“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.“

“Great people, food and service“

“The food here is absolutely delicious! Also, the portion sizes are excellent given the consistently high quality of the food and the surprisingly low price that you pay for that quality. Oh, and the service was excellent too! All of our glasses were served chilled, and the staff were extremely attentive and responsive despite the language barrier between us (I wish I spoke better Spanish and Portuguese!)“

“My best friend lives in Queens so she and I come to the Onion Tree every other Friday night. I wish this place was closer to me. I live in Yonkers. The food is superb, seasoned extraordinarily. The chicken is fresh, soft and cut into small bites. I always order chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, or chicken tikka pizza. I have never had food that I enjoyed this much and I have tried all foods all over the world. I never get tired of this place. And the food is served quickly and piping hot. They’re opening a second place in Manhattan. We’re getting closer to Yonkers!! The drinks are awesome too. Barbra and Louis work behind the bar. They’re friendly and great bartenders.“

“Had a fantastic dinner here! Every dish we ordered came out fresh, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and kept everything running smoothly throughout the night. It made for a genuinely great overall experience—I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“A must try place whenever you are in Oyster bay. Awesome food and staff! Highly recommended 😊“

“I moved out here a lil while ago and looking for new places to eat in Locust valley, There’s a young girl who’s so sweet when I answer. I always get the roast beef panini w/ chicken soup… SOOOO GOOD! My daughter is a picky eater, and loves they food! ESPECIALLY the chicken soup! Great restaurant!“

“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!“

“Lobster Sunday!!!! We had a wonderful young college student as our server who was outstanding. I had a great cocktail thanks to the attentive bartender. The food is always great.“

“There are enough positive words to say not only what an amazing restaurant this is ..but the employees are fantastic to top it off. From meeting with Erin to guide us through my daughters Baby Sprinkle Shower until the party yesterday .. everything was seamless.

“Vegan desserts, meat and cheese alternatives, vegan croissants, cookies, and hot/cold foods. Best location for vegan options I’ve found in Nassau. Their 360 brand vegan ranch is great. They always have just egg and pretty well stocked throughout the store every time I shop.“
