“Great bar, nice ambiance, but please don’t go when Julia is working unless you are single. If you are married and care at all about your family, please stay away.. because once you spend more than 5 minutes with her, you will be forever in love and throw your whole life away to just to see her smile for one more moment in time…..“
“My mom and I came to eat breakfast as it was recommended to us by a friend. I had huevos pericos con arepa y queso and it was delicious. My mom had the soup of the day and she said it was delicious & perfect for the cold weather. The portion are pretty big so the pricing seems fair. Although, it did seem a little pricey but everything in NY is. It nicely decorated inside. The service was great, everyone was super nice. All in all, had a great experience and will definitely come back again!“
“I live in Brooklyn, NY. However, periodically I will drive 55 minutes just to eat at Nautilus Diner. The food is always delicious, and the service is great. The apple crumb cheesecake is an absolute must. I always feel right at home whenever I'm there.“
“Brandon ( young adult person) From Dave and busters Massapequa was exceptional. I am currently expecting and very picky yet always hungry. He managed to bring my food fast and bring all condiments I was craving …. ? in a matter of mins! God bless him! Very polite, friendly yet professional! Wish him the best I all his endeavors.“
“Fresh, delicious food. It was a bit quiet because of the rain and time of year but I bet it's a beautiful, lively atmosphere in spring/summer right on the water. The heated outdoor igloos are a lovely touch and a great idea for a group.“
“Kayla was our server, and supplied the vibe. She recommended the Speck pizza with hot honey, and that pizza changed my life. So damn good! I’m not kidding when I say that I loved it so much I ordered another one to go, to enjoy later that night. That smoked mozzarella ?. The Gnocchi was awesome and they even offer it in a bread bowl! The Italian sodas are also good, if you love natural ginger flavor, the apple ginger one for sure hits.“
“What a fun concept! This was so a fun and unique experience! Had to solve a riddle to get into the secret entrance inside of an ice cream shop! The drinks and staff were fabulous. We were able to hear live music in this cozy basement speakeasy! True history as well!Kid-friendliness: This is a bar in a small basement space. I would not recommend kids. I'm not sure if they are permitted. Get a sitter and go check it out!“
“This place is always spot on. Service is always with a smile, a place that remembers their regulars, consistent pours, consistently great food. Their HAPPY HOUR is an awesome deal also. The owner is always engaged with his patrons and encourages feedback.Highly recommended!!!“
“Great experience and surprise! I loved my food choices recommended by one of the owners who is a ray of sunshine! Scrumptious warm baked bread with a spicy guava sauce! Shrimp Stroganoff with mushrooms rice and stick potatoes was delicious! Yucca fries were amazing. Cannot wait to come back!“
“What an adorable little place for a cocktail! Cute and cozy vibes. Friendly bartender. Interesting and moderately priced drinks. We stopped in for some pre dinner cocktails and were really impressed with this place. Will definitely be back!“
“Drinks served with PRIDE. Frank, Eric and Vin are the best. Bouncers and owners are very friendly. Vibes and atmosphere are immaculate. Service is great even on busy nights! Live music/ DJ on weekends. Trivia on Mondays. Great happy hour Private party room is perfect for events. If you are looking for a bar in the area their are many but if you are looking for a great bar Ridge is the place.Happy appy appetizers :)“
“Moved out here a few years ago.. live literally within a mile of this joint.. never stopped by. Decided to give it a go tonight (st Paddy's day).. it was pretty busy.. but man. What a great idea. Wish I had come sooner. Joe, the owner, was bartending and was an absolute gentleman. The hostess and waiter, and the wait staff were all attentive and very nice. We got calamari and a couple of burgers. Very reasonable prices and really great food. No complaints at all. It was a very nice night out for the Mrs and I. And now, unfortunately for my wallet, I'll have to find the time to frequent this joint for dinner. Really great spot. Really felt like a part of the family immediately.“
“My twin daughters' had their Sweet 16 dinner with 20 friends. The food, the atmosphere, the service, the accomodarions....OUTSTANDING!Vegetarian options: The have plenty of vegetarian options.Kid-friendliness: The staff was so welcoming to 20 teenagers for 3 hours! The owner and staff were so very considerate to them all!“
“Great fried chicken had a wings/thighs combo and chicken sandwich. Spicy is excellent. Did 50/50 with spicy regular for another meal. Also.had fries, rice, broccoli all.very good. Place was really nice inside too. Good bar and restaurant. Parking ain't great but food more than makes up for it.“
“Bartender Dara was very nice and quick. 3 buck domestic and imported tap beer happy hour in small cups. Very tiny menu. I was there for an impromptu stand up comedy night. This bar has potential to be something more but falls short and is classified as a dive bar. However if you're looking for a nicely appointed dive bar, (which I enjoy) this is for you!“
“We hadn't been to Palmers in a while so it was our first time back in over a year. The food and waitress were excellent. A lot of people working hard. The only negatives were it got very noisy around 7:00 on Saturday and the one young hostess was not very personable. She didn't greet us when we came in at all.“
“This bar was originally under a different name then it closed and recently reopened with a new name. Inside it looks like absolutely nothing was changed. Same large bar area filled with TVs showing sports, pool tables, and a few high tops scattered around. They had a decent crowd on a Saturday night and you could tell it was mostly regulars.The bartenders are super nice and always remember what you're drinking. This is not the place to go if you want fancy craft beer or the best cocktail of your life. It's very much a dive with a friendly group of people and more of a local watering hole. Not a bad spot to kick back, watch the game, and enjoy a cold one.“
“New favorite spot!Came for breakfast here and loved everything about it!Service was excellent! Our waitress was lovely and helped us decide what we were having. the menu has staples and not so average but delicious options- win! Even the fruit was so so sweet!Had the ricotta hot honey sourdough with fresh blue berries and omelets that were cooked to perfection.AND great music! We will be back for sure!“
“Amazing restaurant whether it's with friends or family! One of my best friends from college raved about this restaurant and it's easily a hidden gem! You wouldn't normally expect to have a Greek-Mexican fusion restaurant but this one is amazing! I highly recommend getting their stuffed poblano peppers (stuffed with Cauliflower as I'm vegetarian) - 11/10! They even have mocktails and I recommend the mango mule - which I absolutely loved! Will definitely be back here, but given today was Saturday, the restaurant was busy so you couldn't hear the conversation, but food and service are top notch! Also...Food Network...get here ASAP!“
“Honestly, I went to this place two weekends in a row and was pleasantly surprised with how yummy it was. I love that I was able to order everything on lettuce wraps. Kung Pow chicken spicy, caramelized Brussels sprouts, and Vietnamese shrimp were among my favorites. I honestly wouldn’t recommend ordering the salsa here. It’s a little affected. One of my friends mentioned that it looked like alla-vodka sauce, and I agree he wasn’t wrong.“
“Quaint little bar with great wing and drink specials on Wednesdays and has been a quintessential part of the Wantagh bar scene for about as long as I can remember and even before that. You can always count on friendly faces and cold drinks but definitely be prepared to bump some elbows when it gets busy because it gets tight! Plenty of parking both in the from and back of the bar.“
“Went here on a Tuesday night with a group of 8. The food was great and the service was on point . Our waitress was attentive and polite. All the food was cooked correctly and tasted awesome. This was the second time here and won't be the last for sure !“
“This is a great place and our server was fantastic, helpful and right on top of things. Very nice and large menu. Lots of tasty looking sandwiches and burgers. Really appreciated the huge beer menu and some not so well known beers. I had a Granola Brown Ale from Black Hog in CT. We started with the Crispy Cauliflower app in the chili sauce. It was excellent. My wife had the Spaghetti Squash with the pesto sauce. It was very good, on the smaller size, but a nice plate. I ordered one of the St. Patrick's specials, Corned Beef, Cabbage and potato entree. I was disappointed in the meal. While the corned beef was pretty good, the potatoes and the cabbage were undercooked and hard. took a lot away from the meal.Definitely will try the place again as the vibe and the service was first rate.“
“Great local stop. Wings were great...should have been on list via social media as some of best of Long Island. They do lack social media, ie Instagram. They could benefit from that. Staff seems great. Drinks cold and fresh. Nice inviting atmosphere. Just need an Instagram to keep up and remain relevant“
“Attended a large party at the Irish Poet for my establishment's annual holiday party. For apps, there were chafing dishes of chicken tenders, wings, and pigs in the blanket. I preferred the chicken tenders as the wings and pigs got a bit soggy. Then we were presented with mains: salad, penne a la vodka, chicken franchise, and sliced steak (almost like pot roast), along with roasted potatoes and mixed vegetables. The highlights were the steak, potatoes, and vegetables. Most dishes were lukewarm at best. I like my salad dressing on the side, and a thicker vodka sauce. The salad had so much dressing it wilted the lettuce. For dessert, Italian cookies were served but there were hardly enough to go around. I realize a lot of people skip dessert but it wasn't a good look to be short. Overall, I think a few adjustments to the food should be made in the future. That being said, Amy was a fantastic server. In fact, all of the staff/bartenders were attentive, taking orders, and cleaning up.“
“Perfect place to go to on any day, although the game atmosphere on the weekends is a party; crowded but not overcrowded and everyone is friendly. During the week it is quieter and easy to get a table. The servers know their jobs well and are attentive when you need it without overdoing it.The menu has a different selection from what I expected. There is delicious beer cheese soup, thinly sliced reuben sandwiches with sauerkraut and dressing, various salads such as fantasia salmon salad, buffalo wings, calamari, quesadillas and many more selections including a brunch on Sundays. I don't give 5 stars on food unless it is incredibly special, but this place deserves a very high 4 stars not only for the food but for the quick order taking and serving. Pricing is average unless you are a big drinker; if you are drinking, there are a huge variety of beers and other alcoholic drinks.There are about 50 live streaming tv's on every wall, including on the outside wall if you prefer to eat outdoors.Great place to go to with friends and family. Changing Times Pub has to be tried out!Parking: There are parking spaces all along the front and back of Changing Times, but there is also a large lot right next to the small group of connected stores that this pub is a part of.“
“The Tipsy Barrel is a cozy neighborhood bar located in the heart of downtown. The dark wood décor and soft lighting create a warm, welcoming ambiance. The bar features an extensive selection of craft beers on tap, with a rotating selection that highlights local breweries. They also offer a curated list of wines and signature cocktails.“
“We were Visiting around the area, hadn't been in a while since we moved away. But it was my husband's 50th bday and were feeling nostalgic. We stopped in at Whiskeys because we could see it had a facelift. It's More than just a coat of paint. It used to be an unsavory dive bar. Now it's great! 3 taps , that includes Guinness. Nice liquors. CLEAN. Brand new bathrooms makeovers. With the art on the walls now it's got vibe. Shift change meant we got to hang with both Steve and Alex. Really nice to see the place looking so good and brought back to life. They had a DJ coming in for Sat night. If I still lived around there I would make it my local and enjoy darts and good tunes regularly.“
“From the moment we walked into Maggianos lottle italy, we were enveloped by the cozy and inviting ambiance that sets the perfect stage for an authentic Italian dining experience. We ordered branzino and chicken francese. Chicken was so tender and juicy and the fish was fresh and savory.“
“Our GO TO pub in Baldwin. It's like walking into Cheers Bar - everyone knows your name and you are greeted with a hug and a smile. Shay is just the BEST and the staff is simply amazing. We love watching games, listening to the bands and playing trivia on Thursday night. Just a GREAT hometown place to hang!!!“
“This is our “go to “ place for years! Wonderful atmosphere and great food!We recently hosted a party for 50 people and could not have been more pleased with the service and food. The upstairs party room is beautiful and well suited for private events.“
“I have been coming to the Little Lounge for over 15 years. I have established friendships and even consider the staff and customers as my family. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. The drinks are great and the prices are just right. The staff is personable and attentive to all customers and provide excellent customer service! Highly recommend for people to give it a try. You won't be disappointed. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner!“
“My 1st time here after hearing it was worth trying this spot. Came for brunch on Sat & was part of a group of 6. Our waitress was great! Very knowledgeable about the menu & was kind enough to take pics for us & even found 1 person from the group's missing earring back.Everyone totally enjoyed their meal. I had the brushetta avocado toast w/eggs!! Delicious ?Will definitely be returning.“

“Although they have food, I've yet to try it, as we usually only stop by on the way home for one last drink and/or coffee after BBQing on the beach. The service is always very personable, and my boyfriend absolutely loves this place; he talked about the Gilgo Inn all throughout the off-season when we first met before I finally got the chance to visit with him.They're cash only, but they have an ATM ($3 service fee). All the seating is outside, but there's a TV inside as well as framed photos of how the place used to look, including some shots of it submerged in water following a storm some years back.The coffee is good, and the drinks are alright and won't break the bank. I think the cocktails were around $10 apiece. There are proper bathrooms across the parking lot, too.“
“Came here with my wife for karaoke on a Friday and we had a lot of fun. Sang a couple songs and sang along with the other folks singing. They had a solid crew of locals and regulars who come just for karaoke and the regular bar crowd. Everyone was very supportive and into it. The bartender was very nice and so was the two people running the karaoke. If you want to let loose and sing some music in a supportive, judgement free atmosphere then I highly recommend the neighborhood tavern in Farmingdale.“
“This is a great local Long Island bar. The owner Steve and son Greg really run a great show and all of the bar tenders are on point in terms of their customer service and drink knowledge. The drinks are always made the right way and they always remember your order and make it comfortable for you.Their beer selection is impressive as are their alcohol selections.Many great bands come through here and this place runs great shows. Come and get to know the place. Highly recommended.Vegetarian options: Cheese Pizza and Pretzels, chips. Decent Bar options.“
“Nice bar.There are two areas inside - the bar area of course and there's another partition for dining in. We sat at the bar (in which you can eat as well).Now I won't pretend to be a beer connoisseur. Aside from 'cheap' beer, I'm more of a mixed drink guy. I don't know a thing about 'IPAs' or any of that. That being said, for those who do like beer, there are plenty of options in that regard. For those more like me with regular drinks, the bar had more than enough in selection.The lighting wasn't good, so I wasn't able to take menu snaps - but the menu had a good general selection. I went for the 'Thomas Jefferson' burger (w/ fries) and it was very tasty. I did see someone else order a Bavarian pretzel, so next time I'm here I'm going to have to try that. Really, the burger was so tasty I'd definitely try other things for sure.The bartenders were friendly, attentive, and frankly real good. The staff in general were all good.There were several TV's showing an assortment of things.This place shares the space with other businesses and there is a lot to park. The lot is a little smaller side, but you should be able to find a spot.Overall a comfortable place with a good staff and food/drink options - a nice bar in the area and one I'd easily return to.“
“Came in for dinner with my kids(we are visiting from Massachusetts) we put them back at the hotel and we came back cuz the vibe was so great! Food was AHH-MAZING! Service was on point ! Big Rangers bar and from the decor it also looks like a big Raiders bar as well...closing time says 11pm but that's not true, it's based on volume of people in the bar. If they are making money they will stay open. HIGHLY recommend!! Allof the servers and bartenders were great! Cant say enough about this place!! 5“
“The bartender was very friendly and helpful. She was attentive to everyone.I thought I was going to walk into run down, hole in the wall type of bar. I was so wrong! This bar is very cozy and modernly decorated. Even the pool table is in great condition.I highly recommend JJ's Tavern if you are looking for a place to unwind and have some laughs!“
“His & Hers Bar and Lounge is a great place to visit. Stopped in to watch the game. The drinks and apps were great, and the owner and staff were extremely nice. It's was a few days before Christmas, and the owner was dressed as Santa, giving out toy and photo op.Will definitely be back. They sure won't disappoint.“
“Lots of tables and we got a table in 10 minutes even though the place was packed Saturday night. Good courteous crowd. They have a decent cocktail and wine menu. We had a lot of fun and our bartender was very attentive. The prices are really good for a fun night out.“
“Great drinks, yummy food and even better customer service! Hands down my favorite local bar. The owners are sweethearts and can't say enough good things about the staff. Love the live music and DJ nights. It is a local crowd and everyone is super friendly and warm. Definitely worth it to stop in for a drink and chill atmosphere. LOVE THIS BAR“
“Owner operated water side place. They sell gas to the boaters and booze to the locals. Best spot for sunset selfies. Pretty sure you can still rent a skiff by the hour. Last stop for bait and tackel before you leave the continental shelf. Good hot dogs and fries. Funny, fries taste better when they are cooked outside.“
“I ordered a Sicilian online with a chocolate pie and peanut butter pie piece. The pizza was a 7 out of 10. Hot, cheesy, and saucy. Could have a been a tad tastier. The desserts were very good. The driver made it under the time. He forgot forks, but came back to give us some....amazing!!! The Sicilian pie was a bit expensive at $30 in a regular pie box.“
“So we went into corner Galley at 815 (close at 9 on Sundays) but they were done seating so we went to runyons... We decided if Matty was behind the bar we'd sit with him but it wasn't so we sat at a table with Sabie. Service and food were wonderful, we both did the pasta night. Wife had the carbonara and I had the eggplant. We also got an order of calamari, which was awesome but waaaayyyy to much food for just the 2 of us. Food was great, service was great, place was vibing with the Nfc championship game on and people in the bar having fun. Great overall experience.“
“A very nice place to very good experience staff very professional The food is wonderful it's a great experience a good place to eat For some people it's an experience for other people it's enjoyment of enjoying a place like this because they are very professional and they make sure that you are taking care of properly with the food and satisfaction of just enjoying the place in general It is a good experience and a nice place to go for a bite to eat“
“During COVID the Helm has really become my go to place for a quick meal with the family. The owner and staff are always wearing masks and the place is clean. We have never had a meal we didn't enjoy! The wings are great the only problem is their are too many sauces to choose from. My girlfriend and kids love the burgers but my absolute favorite is the Chipotle Chicken Quesadilla. I order it with an extra side of sauce. Best part is the portions are so large I get to eat half for lunch the next day!Support a local business with an amazing owner who gets to know their clients and even wrote me a personalized Thank You note for supporting them during the shutdown.“
“A small, local bar with a big personality. My companion and I stopped by on a Sunday for the live music. The music was loud and good. Service was good thanks to the overly attentive bartender. We quickly received our drinks. The food? Well, it too a lonnnnng time, but the bartender was apologetic and kept providing us with updates.I ordered a cheeseburger with sweet potato fries and my companion ordered the shrimp tacos. Everything was flavorful and the burger patty was thick and had an excellent char. I would order it again.“
“Stopped in for one drink today because I needed it. The place was very nice, very clean. Two very nice young ladies behind the bar. I had a Manhattan that was very good! But I must say one thing, I had a glass of water and it truly was delicious. That speaks volumes to me. So many places don't put any effort into their disgusting water And it really offends me. This water obviously is filtered and looked after and I just want them to know it that I noticed and it's appreciated.“
“We went here to have some fun and go bowling , this place is great dark setting for bowling with a bunch of lights going on , great for kids and adults , they have an arcade which has fun games in it too, the food is great, typical bar finger foods , they have a bar for adults to to get drinks while you bowl. Parking right in the parking lot of the place , staff is good nice and helpful. I really liked the Buffalo chicken wings they are very good.“
