“Great service as well!!!!!“

“We always enjoy the food from La Piazza, but tonight we were especially impressed by the integrity of your delivery driver, Eduar. We accidentally gave him $300 instead of $100 in cash, and he immediately texted us and returned to our door to give back the extra $200. In a world where honesty isn’t always guaranteed, his kindness and professionalism truly stood out. Just wanted to share how grateful we are—people like Eduar make us proud to support your restaurant!“

“The first vegan cheese they had was awful but this latest one they’ve been using is some of the best vegan cheese I’ve had. I even called back the first time because I was certain they used the wrong cheese (and my non-vegan friend thought the same thing). Have been back many times since. Even converted my meat-loving friend to veganism over a pie of this pizza. Highly recommend!“

“As always I give this restaurant 5 stars. Met friends for dinner on Sunday night. The service is exceptional. All of us had something different and we all enjoyed our food. My friend did a price fixed with filet of sole and said it was delicious. The brussel sprouts appetizer was excellent. We also started with fried calamari, though small portion, was good. I had a hamburger which was huge with the onions and musrooms. The burger was cooked to perfection. The other two in our party also finished their food. It was very quiet so we were able to communicate easily with our friends.“

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the impeccable service and care your entire team provided during the recent funeral of my brother, Steven Blair.

We were there to celebrate birthdays, and they even gifted a small bottle of prosecco. We plan on returning soon and have told family/friends about our dinner. It is a wonderful, homey restaurant and well worth it.“

“From start to finish I can’t say enough what a wonderful experience we had planning and hosting my daughter’s bridal shower. From the food to the staff it was amazing…. I messed up the table seating on 2 tables and the staff was quick to fix my error when a few guests had no seat…The set up was a breeze, they worked with all of us to get all of the decorations set exactly how we wanted it …. Kudos to Sal one of the owners who I had my initial contact with and to Mike the maître D who helped to make this event a success.
Myself and the guests couldn’t say enough wonderful things!
Thank you to all at Mio Posto! Hands down a phenomenal restaurant !!!!“

“Fun time with friends! Our waiter Puma was excellent!“

“Nice Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Farmingdale. I went on a Friday night with some friends, we had drinks, appetizers, and obviously main courses. Everything was good from the bay clams to the fried calamari and the muscles with a basil cream sauce. For dinner, also Buco, chicken, Parm, Bronzino, and eggplant dish, and a chicken and sausage platter were served. The weight staff was excellent. They were constantly offering us more drinks topping off the glasses of water. Dessert and coffee was later served overall we had a very enjoyable evening. Vespa  in Farmingdale is essentially located near the Nassau County Suffolk County border. It's a great meet up spot for friends who live in Suffolk County and as well friends who live in Nassau. I would definitely recommend Vespa in Farmingdale. I recently read that they opened up a second location. I will definitely be back to this location. Bon appétit. “

“Hands down, one of the finest restaurants on the North Shore. Be sure to make a reservation, as it's intimate. Top notch Chef with a staff to match.“

“The food is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!“

“I had my son's wedding rehearsal dinner at Zona last night. I was originally booked to have the party on Saturday, but the bride came down with the flu. Gianna was so helpful and accommodating. She was able to change the date for me without hesitation. The day of the affair, the staff was so helpful in getting the room set up for us. Our waitress, Jodi, was absolutely incredible. She made sure that our guests had a fresh drink before they even realized their drink was empty. The food was delicious and plentiful. But most of all, the service that Jodi provided to us was outstanding. I would book another event at Zona without hesitation.“

“Staff were very attentive food was delicious nice atmosphere.“

“Great food we like the food was good . Very nice .“

“The owner is great, the bartenders are great, Kerry the manager is so kind and nice and accommodating. The food is delicious; there’s too much food there’s always at least two meals for each order the food that you make. The overall ambience is fun as the patrons that frequent this restaurant are regulars. There’s just a homey and fun tinge to this Bellmore Classic.“

“Maroni's is as good as you've heard. If you're not from the Northport area, they're worth the trip.
If I had to make a suggestion, make reservations for the complete tasting menu, guaranteed you won't leave unsatisfied!
in an era where service is an afterthought, you'll feel at home, as if family is joining you for an experience as opposed to strangers forced to take care of you.“
