50 Best Cocktail Bars near Locust Valley

“We very recently had my mother's 80th birthday party here at Two25 with 40 attendees. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience. First of all, it has a modern, calming and upscale vibe. The restaurant and restrooms are immaculate. Crisp table settings. Cool jazz lightly cascading through the sound system. Just great overall ambiance. From the moment I walked in to inquire about having a party, I met Caitlin, who deftly and expertly handled every single issue, before, during and after, with ease and grace. She made sure that our experience was perfect. A true professional and a credit to the establishment. From the moment that our party started, the staff was incredibly attentive and intuitive. The appetizers of arancini, wontons, and artichokes were absolutely delish. The salads course was perfect. And the main dinner courses were expertly crafted. I personally had the short ribs which were melt in your mouth deliciousness. My wife's salmon was cooked to perfection. And although I did not taste the chicken Milanese, everyone who had it reported it to be excellent. The dessert of gelato and cappuccino was the perfect complement to the amazing meal. And if I didn't stress this point enough, Caitlin and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate every whim. As an amazing example of that, before the day of the event, I mentioned to Caitlin, quite off-handedly, that although their beer selections were top shelf, they didn't have my go-to beer. Would you believe that the manager, Andrea, went out and personally made sure my favorite beer would be on hand for our event. Now that is what I call service!!!!
All of our guests were thoroughly impressed and everyone, invariably, had nothing but positive reviews for the event.
Two25 has skyrocketed up to our family's favorite restaurant.
Thanks again Caitlin and Andrea for an unforgettable night!!“

“great ambient [Original] great ambient“

“The Polo Lounge is such a great place! We were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and another couple was celebrating their 50th anniversary! The food was delicious! The portions are appropriate so you're not totally full before your main course even comes. The atmosphere is a fun. There's a lounge singer and couples dancing. It was lovely to watch and we were sitting in our booth. There was a wedding going on, but it did not bother the restaurant at all. We will be back every year for our anniversary after bring married at Westbury Manor. The staff, the food, and the atmosphere will keep us coming back!“

“This the 2nd time I was here and they do not disappoint. The 1st pic was the pork soup, the 2nd pic which is fron my 1st visit was the wonton soup which is my favorite. The pork one is good, but the soup tastes like gravy it was a bit much for me. And the 3rd pic is the chips very light I luv love them. Oh, and I had a glass of mohito“

“Very nice inviting decor. Service was just ok. The server was basic, didn’t tell us it was happy hour? Nor did she mention and food selections. For a new establishment I guess I was expecting a bit more … maybe ask if we had been there before? Check back to see how our food was( it was outstanding), we got more help from the water girl Had to ask to clear table. Had to ask for check from the water girl? The server had much support. Seems she took our order and disappeared. But the server assistants were on point. Dinner was really good. We will go back… because of the food. Even the manager walked pasted us a dozen times. There were 6 tables.. perfect time for manager to mingle… just saying. Place is very nice, great menu too. Just left feeling ignored. Nice music too. Maybe the server was having a bad day? Like I said we will go again !!! Great food.“

“The food was fresh and delicious ! The menu items were unique! The atmosphere was spacious and comfortable. The service was friendly and on point ! The staff seemed to be enthusiastic to serve us and have us try new things, took the time to explain our options and made confident recommendations. It was more than a great meal but an overall enjoyable experience I highly recommend it and can’t wait to go back with friends and family 😊“

“By far the best new restaurant in Mamaroneck in years! great food and service.“

“We tried The Audrey for the first time last night. Will definitely return. It was a Wednesday night and we were alerted that they were short staffed when we chose to sit outside. One of our entrees was forgotten and took about 20 min, but we shared our entrees in the meantime. The appetizers and pizza entrees were very generous sizes (could easily be shared) and they were all delicious. The staff was very apologetic and had such a delightful personality that it was easy to forgive. We definitely look forward to going again.“

“This is a new restaurant opening in Oyster Bay, NY. This is real authentic northern Italian food. Everything was so delicious. Fresh made mozzarella, fresh hand made pasta. The flavors of these dishes really show how much thought and preparation they put into creating food like this and it really shows. I strongly recommend this place. It is a must if you love Italian food!!“

“WOW! What a great experience our family had dining at Atlas. First, our server, Abdul was OUTSTANDING. Managing a party of 14 is no easy task - and Abdul did it with a consistent smile, grace and efficiency. He made our experience amazing. The food — PHENOMENAL: We did a mix of Indian flare and some American. Everything was over the top — very tasty and well prepared. Highly recommend!“

I liked the vibe so much that when a friend wanted to meet up for a nice glass of wine, that became our destination. Super friendly bartender Hailey, pointed us to the perfect glass tonight. We paired it with a yummy flatbread to share. Great vibe, great food, great service!“

Glad before we left the Chef came from kitchen speaking to other patrons and we were able to tell him how much we enjoyed our meal this evening as well as our earlier visits Highly recommend!!“

“Love this place! This is my go-to spot for lunch with friends and family. I highly recommend the grilled peach ricotta toast, the hot honey chicken sandwich, the everything pigs in a blanket, the crispy brussels sprouts and any of the smoothies. YUM!

The moss wall art is STUNNING!

Staff is very friendly.

The whole restaurant and bar area is really beautiful. Wish they’d bring back dinner and happy hour so I could go more often with my husband and daughter. But happy to continue to visit for lunch until then :)“

“Popped in with a few friends to celebrate a birthday and jus being together, (I've been here before and jus made my way to the doors .... We're two members of our group were greeted at the desk and pointed to where the restaurant is, they were rather surprised and called to question if they made it to the right venue, so yeah, that was kinda fun... We were.greeted and seated by Akbar, who was awfully sweet, attentive and accommodating. Our drinks were tasty, meals served hot and nicely presented. We tried something off of each menu, (regular, Indian fusion and summer menus) And for dessert gulab jamun with vanilla ice cream, which was a HIT!!!... DEFINITELY visiting again!“

“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. Erin always stayed professional.. friendly .. caring and went above and beyond! The day of the Shower .. Kyle and Ashley were our hosts .. they were exceptional! Asked questions .. listened to requests .. professional .. friendly and made sure everything was to our satisfaction!! What a perfect day .. in a perfect Restaurant with the most perfect setting and atmosphere!! Thank you Erin, Ashley , Kyle and the Rye Bar & Grill to making the day memorable!“

“If you have only one night to spend on Long Island, this is the place. The new My Fathers Place is THE best place to see a concert on LI. The room is intimate and the sound is fantastic.And the menu far surpasses any other music venue. It's Indian-influenced and everything I've tasted is great especially at the low price-point.Imagine, half a century ago, Michael Epstein opened up the original MFP and it stands as the finest music venue perhaps anywhere. Eppy definitely belongs in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.Eppy, you've hit a home run“

“Food & service were good!“

“Great vibe and food,and great live music!“

“Anytime I've ordered take out from this place its been fresh and delicious and usually always ready by the time i get there. I must say I haven't been too crazy about eating in there cause there service really isn't the best. Waiter/Waitresses don't really have any personality and my waiter tried to charge me extra for rice and beans that was suppose to automatically come with the shrimp dish i usually get from there. Besides the dining in aspect, I will return for take out cause I do enjoy the food.“

“I’ve been here a couple of times already and every single time it’s very good! Great food and a good environment!“

“Cristian the waiter is amazing…the food and drinks were great!!!“
