“I went there years ago and I loved it. The food was fresh and deliciously prepared. The nautical vibe is awesome it’s literally right by the water. The service was awesome. But there was one thing that stands out is a cocktail that tasted like Banana Taffy. I don’t remember the name but is was the most delicious cocktail I’ve ever had. I’ve been meaning to go back ever since. Great place! Great food, great service, great vibe and amazing cocktails!“
“First time and could not be more impressed. First the bread , amazing . Chef Guerrieri is spot on with everything he prepares. Freshest ingredients put together perfectly . Did I mention the bread ? Only negative was they were sold out of the octopus ( I did order less than an hour to closing on a Friday in Lent , so I’m to blame) . The replacement the Chef recommended and provided was more than adequate and extremely generous. Great spot , great Chef , highly recommend.“
“Stopped in to try and wow, I cannot wait to go back. I’m an IPA guy but they were out(which is a good thing in my opinion, means they’re not getting lazy and brewing the same thing all the time) but I got to try an amazing Saison and wonderful Stout. I didn’t get the bartenders name but she was extremely nice and informative and even let me try an IPA that was almost ready, it was a great experience. I can’t wait to go back!“
“This smoothie shop is one of the best in area in terms of pricing, quality and staff. Every time you enter, you're greeted with positivity and I truly appreciate the ability to customize all of the ingredients in your order. Often times, it's hard to find smoothie places that can make drinks without the added sugar (either through juices or purees), but every drink I've had from here has always exceeded my expectations. You totally should check it out!“
“This place is a hidden gem and features some of the best ice cream/ gelato I've ever had on Long Island. I got the campfire crunch swirly, and it was delicious. Ice cream was super cremy and fresh, and they put the perfect amount of blended toppings in the swirly.The shop featured about 20 gelato flavors to choose from and also had a nice expresso bar/candy station in the back.The service was nice and friendly.Overall, this place is a must try!“
“This place is a little diamond. Went for the first time last night and WOW. It took me back to Italy. They don't use the artificial flavors you'll find at all the local icecream shops. It's REALLY pistachio and hazelnut and chocolate. The flavors were absolutely incredible and smooth. Not too sweet. Just perfect across the board. No little bits of ice like you get at other spots where the ice cream has been sitting. It was all fresh. And the owner was a lovely Italian woman who was so happy to share her treats with us. They were very kind and patient as we struggled to pick a flavor (because they all were AMAZING). They also have an assortment of tarts and the icecream cakes that looks like the best ice cream cake you'll ever have. They are absolutely beautiful! If you love proper Italian gelato or ice cream this spot is gonna be your new favorite.“
“I come to this place almost every morning, and it never disappoints. It is family owned, and the workers are all very accommodating and friendly. Food is always very good and they always cook it to wants of the customer. Also make some of the best smoothies I’ve ever had with fresh fruits. Highly recommend this place“
“Great neighborhood family owned italian restaurant. It always so enjoyable eating at Eliza's. Chef makes great food and always has great specials to choose from each night. We started we baked clams and needed to ask for more bread to soak up all that delicious sauce. We both decided on pasta for dinner and both were great choices. I went with pasta rollo which was rolled up fresh lasagna. After seeing similar dishes online I always wanted to try it glad they had it and it was delicious. My wife enjoyed her pasta with chicken & broccoli. Since it was Tuesday they have pasta night and both dishes came with a nice salad.“
“One of the reviews used "cute and cozy" already. Spot on. If you haven't seen it decorated for Christmas please go today. The baked goods look and taste amazing. The coffee was so fresh and flavorful. It is a hidden gem of main street. Sneak around the corner for a coffee and treat on your next walk. Bring the kids to see the decorations. Absolutely love this shop.“
“I'm so surprised I hadn't written a review for Marvel before, especially since I have been here a couple times because it's pretty close to my sister's house. It's definitely great value compared to a lot of other ice cream shops. Since the last time I was there they've added more flavor options too. When I went recently, I ordered a small cup of half pistachio/half dulce de leche with the Marvel mix on top (rainbow sprinkles/chocolate crunchies). It hit the spot, although it did not seem as creamy as it was the last time I had it. Service was ok, not the friendliest though. If I'm around the area, I may pop back.“
“While we were waiting for the train decided to stop in and have a coffee and tea. Which both were excellent. Really enjoyed the cookie that came with the drinks. But what really made the stay enjoyable was having a conversation with E.J. the batista. He is really passionate about his work. Will definitely stop back in when I'm in town.“
“Passed by on one of my errands! Stopped by to try this new place out with my mom.--Special Promo Going On 3/04/24--Follow them on social and receive a free upgrade to a large drinkFollow and share on social media and get a free drink or Taiwanese sausage snack--Review--Only one employee was manning the shop~ When we came through on a Monday afternoon. We ordered the Oolong milk tea w/ Herbal Jelly. My mom ordered the Bubble Milk. Both at 30% sugar and no ice.Oolong tea with herbal jelly was perfect. Tasted exactly at 30% sweetness. The jelly was a little more viscous than what I'm used to but thats not a criticism or anything just an observation.Bubble milk tea: The base tea I think is earl grey - it was just slightly sweeter than the Oolong but still ok. Too sweet for my mom but ok for me so we switched drinks.TLDR:- Decent tea and not overly sweet at 30% sugar and no ice- Clean and spacious seating area- Has Wifi and clean bathrooms- Clear listed menu items and highlighting recommend drinks on the adjacent wall- Didn't try any of the food items but will be back for them, especially the snow shaved ice!- Cute logo <3“
“Not a formal restaurant , but a great 'take out' place with authentic English pasties and pies .The owner/chef is english , and makes the food as properly crafted "across the pond" . True to form , they also sell 'biscuits and cakes' made there , also .The pizzas are an added treat , and are priced at less than $2.00/slice currently , and after 9:00 p.m. a slice is just $1.50 ! . Whole pies ? .... go there to find out the price or check the website . Limited parking out front , and across from a 'petrol' station . Antonio's ..... who'd have thought ??“
“Best brew stop on our weekend! This place must surely feel like home to the locals. Such great staff and ownership. The brewer tour was amazing and if we'd had time we would have loved the food that was coming in the door.This definitely was the friendliest place of our 2 day stay on LI.Will be back!Thanks for the memories!“
“Enjoying a brew after the beach, they have a great selection and variety of in house brews! Super cool space, friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere with music and people’s conversations. Bar staff gave good recommendations for nearby restaurants, as they only serve beer and not food. Chill vibe 11/10 would come here again“
“Very much a hidden gem. The place is cozy with a warm atmosphere and very cool. There are the big beer tanks visible right in the space. There are so many interesting beer and drink choices and a small menu with a few items like a bar pizza and empanadas. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. There is a tent out back with heaters, tables and benches for extra space. The parking is tight but spots available. Cute hangout and definitely great if you're into beer! ? ? ?“
“My family and I tried Park Avenue Grill because of their large gluten free menu. The brunch food was excellent. I tried the gluten free churro waffle bites, which were divine, and GF Tuscan eggs Benedict. There was also a decent sized vegan menu! Their specialty lattes were delicious. The atmosphere is cozy inside and they have an outdoor patio! All in all, I'm excited to go back and try more of the menu, maybe dinner next time.Dietary restrictions: They have an extensive gluten free menu and a dedicated space for itKid-friendliness: They had a decent sized kids menu that offers gluten free“
“I don’t know what this Celina’s problem is but barrier rocks. And as a 30 something year old I can say one of the main reasons I love barrier is because the music is never too loud for conversation. Beers are great and bar tenders are all super friendly and attentive. Food is also delicious! It’s bar food lady go to Gordon Ramsey if you want a 5 star meal.“
“I've probably had roughly 300 transactions here so far, addicted. This deli has become a staple of my daily diet. Despite the overwhelming convenience of location, the staff and food are ACES! Sitting here with a smile having my daily egg sandwich as i write this.“
“All American Burger has Great food at Great prices, and very nice fast & efficient workers! It's fun to go here! Where else can you get a hamburger for $4.50 that tastes good and a knish for $2.50 plus more at affordable prices! It has been around a long time since I went to school in this same neighborhood! I love this place! I definitely recommend it!Parking: Busy place. Plenty of parking if you don't go at a busy time here.Kid-friendliness: Kids love eating here. There are only outdoor tables! The workers are nice to everyone!“
“When I say this woman goes out of her way to make her customers happy, it’s an understatement. We hired Chrissa for a large backyard party. The food was delicious. She made sure we had everything we needed. The staff on the truck was kind and efficient. She tailored the menu to exactly what we wanted. I cant recommend her enough.“
“I've been going here since it opened and have never been disappointed FANTASTIC beer, great service...nice food truck outside. Constantly getting new beers to try. Definitely a great pace to be a regular. hey also sell their beer CANNED so you can just come in try some beer and walk out with some great stuff to share with friends at home.“
“What a fun and tasty summertime treat! If you "but it's just a snow cone" you are mistaken this is much softer, fluffier and definitely a Snoball! This is the kind if treat once took my first spoonful I was already plotting when I could Come to eat it again and why did I only get a regular sized when I should have gone BIGGER. There are over 100 flavors to pick from and additives and more so truly you can go wild. I really enjoyed coconuts tutti fruti, tigers blood so far. I wish I had one sooner. Lots of young people working behind the counter but they had a smile on their faces 5/5 stars!“
“Absolutely fantastic! What a gem!We were in town for a very quick visit and stumbled across this amazing restaurant!We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was simply delicious. Tender, cooked perfectly, and very tasty.As a main dish, I ordered the special seafood pasta fra diavolo. It was amazing. My wife ordered the branzino special and that too was divine.We closed out with a tiramisu that was one of the best we ever had.Added bonus, Tuesday is 40% off wine, so we had a great bottle for a super deal!Lastly, Cristian, our server was top notch!We will highly recommend this incredible restaurant with great ambiance and over the top food!“
“This place is awesome. We've been here several times since it has opened in Plainview and we've never been disappointed by the meal. Today we had the chicken wings as appetizer, the Reuben and the Eggs Benedict made up our main. Everything was totally delicious. The Shed lemonade well worth it. The service was fantastic, thank you Eraldo F. From previous visits we've enjoyed the chicken and waffles, omelet, chilaquiles(was a special, not on regular menu) and so much more!!!“
“Missed my connecting train in RVC, had 5 mins to spare… breezed past the Dunkin for this highly-rated, locally-owned coffee shop. First time. Ordered a cup, resisted the urge to indulge in any of the many tasty treats, went to check out with Apple Pay, only to be told that it was cash-only. Without batting an eye, after seeing the look on my face, the young girl behind the counter said, “don’t worry, your coffee is on us today.” Don’t pass by much, but will highly recommend, definitely make it a point to go more often and never forget the kindness and the great coffee!#custyforlife“
“Love going to Bigelows i’m sitting at the bar the experience is great watching the staff freshly batter seafood and putting it right in the fryer right in front of you. The New England clam chowder is like no other. It is very delicious and creamy the perfect consistency for clam chowder. Definitely the best around the Ipswich fried clams are my go to favorite. They are fried to perfection and very clean oil which makes the food very good because the oil is always clean that they cook in. The people that work at Bigelow’s are great. Always welcoming and fun to hang out with by the bar while you eat your delicious seafood, no matter what you get I highly recommend coming here if you are in the area and you love seafood, you will not get any fresher!! Always leave happy and full from delicious FRESH seafood!!! 10/10“
“The best place in New York to get an Italian subs. The customer service is outstanding, always a pleasure going.I’ve recommended to family and friends and after trying the food they love it as well.If you’re in the area and you like Italian sausages this is the only place to go hands down 10/10 ❤️“
“Wonderful ice cream for humans and our canine baby! We stopped for a treat earlier, tasted coconut, German chocolate and raspberry ice cream . Fantastic fresh with natural flavors. Friendly service and especially catered to our boxer Izzy.“
“5 stars all across the board! All I have to say is, WOW! Love the energy and atmosphere! Family owned business and you can tell they take pride in their work! The food is always so fresh and tasty! The quantities are always perfect and the taste is always on point! Seating area is small, but usually clears out fairly quick! Wish we had more establishments like this one here! My favorite is the Hakka chicken with brown rice!!“
“I don’t normally write reviews but I felt compelled to write one now. Tonight we threw a surprise birthday party for a family member here. The entire experience was amazing.The owner is super accommodating, even letting me switch the date or the event last minute and change the number of people. They gave us ample space to set up food, desserts, and have more than enough seating for our guests.The bartender was awesome, friendly, and very helpful. He even came to sweep our area before our event started after we dropped some decorations on the floor.There was a live band that everyone enjoyed, from the younger guests to the older guests. The games also kept the kids entertained.This place was exactly what we were looking for and it was perfect for everyone who attended, from the 4 year old up to the 78 year old. This is perfect for events and families!“
“Can’t say enough about our experience last night. It was pouring raining but my husband wanted to go out for dinner. We showed up at around 9pm , after another restaurant wouldn’t seat us. Service and food was incredible!! We were not rushed even though we were the only ones left at that point.They kept telling us, to enjoy and not rush. Is definitely now our favourite place.“
“I’m not typically someone who writes reviews but my husband and I have been looking for different coffee shops to go to around the island and I came across Anchor. After reading some negative reviews together we decided to try it out for ourselves. I must say I don’t agree with any of them. The staff was incredibly friendly, the atmosphere was very nice, I’m not sure what some people meant by the vibe seeming “fake” but I definitely didn’t feel that way. They had pretty good food options for breakfast and lunch and an assortment of pastries as well. For the reviews about the owner, I didn’t talk to him myself but I heard him talking to staff and other customers and he seemed like a very normal dude. Overall I just wanted to say I don’t agree with the bad reviews..“
“Best mall on the island, in my opinion. Great tech stores and kids stores. Even good clothing stores coming from someone who dispises clothing shopping. The only issue is that it is so big you can get lost. There are maps all over the mall, but if you can't read them, bring someone with you who can. There used to be paper maps as well that you could take with you around the mall, but they stopped making them. You can get a digital version on your phone, though.“
“Finally got over to try them and so glad I did. A few tables and the bar in front and more tables in back & outside in the back. Lots of options on tap, friendly server. I got L. Bee's knees brewed with honey, lavender & sage. I really like it! Then tried the killer queen, filled with warm spices, wow it was good, took some home. I highly recommend you go!“
“Love love love this store and I only been here 2x… the owner harry and the employee Brandon are so helpful with everything .. too much to write but he’s excellent and sooo many people came in to get their daily doses of vitamins and drinks.. he’s really good“
“The restaurant is in a low traffic area and seems to do decent with takeout. I haven't seen anyone sit down yet each time I went. Restaurant looks pretty clean and full of space. The folk working here are pretty nice. Portion sizes are either lunch or dinner size for your platters. Even the lunch size is a good size portion enough for one person. The dinner size is enough for two people. When we ordered the lunch size for gyro, we had a choice of either a salad or a soup for the first side which is separate from the gyro and there is a second side that goes along with the gyro, so you can pick one of the following fries, rice, lemon potatoes or grilled vegetables. The container is filled about 80% full with grilled pita. When we ordered the dinner size for gyro, its the same as lunch but you can pick two of the sides that go along the gyro. This is effectively filling your container all the way to the top at 100% filled with grilled pita. Recently it appears they increased this to up to three sides, but I imagine they will just reduce the portion size of each side if you pick three but would still fill the container full. The Greek salad is good and the soups we tried were also good. The gyros and chicken souvlaki were on point.“
“This establishment is one of my favorites! I came across it about two years ago and their food is phenomenal. I have never had a bad experience here at all - from food, to wait staff, etc. Their Lobster BLT is to die for, but it hasn't been on the menu for awhile. I hope they bring it back - one of the best things ever!!“
“As far as my husband and I are concerned one of the best, if not the best bakery. Been stopping by for years and never had a complaint. We had apple pie, chocolate babkah, various Danish, cookies. I love the chocolate cigars. Staff is always pleasant and helpful, no matter how busy they are. If it is a holiday, go early or reserve ahead of time.“
“Always an amazing time when I come in for family dinner, solo drinking, or take out. People know each other by name here so that feels goods walking in. Service is always fast and food fresh. Sandra is great, always seats us and makes sure to accommodate our kids. Super sweet. JC makes awesome drinks, and Sal is the entertainer there.Thanks guy for good food,Good drinks and a good time!“
“This little coffee truck is such a wonderful add to our community. Everything from the truck itself to little touches like a pay it forward board and cold brew growlers helps embrace the Long Beach vibe. The owners greet you with a smile and are always adding new things to the menu. As a self-proclaimed coffee connoisseur, they serve some of the best cold brew in town!“
“We had our girl scout pizza party here today and the business owners went above and beyond to accommodate our young girls and to ensure they would have a great time. They accommodated our food allergies and were very reasonable with the pricing. Thank you so much for your patience and attention to us! Our troop had a great time. Even the adults loved the pizza and we look forward to dining here again soon!“
“I've came to blacksmiths many times for coffee and bakery items, but today was my first time having an actual breakfast. The breakfast quesadilla was pretty good and a big portion size in my opinion. I always love getting the maple brown sugar latte! Overall blacksmiths is delicious with friendly staff, but a little pricey in my opinion - which is why I only come here once in a while. Would recommend!“
“It was clean and everyone who works there is nice. It is in a busy area traffic wise, but it is a great place for crussaunts and cookies. I do not recommend their lemonade though because it is very tart. But over all it is a great 4.6 star restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Very friendly to all kids but in a traffic busy area of Malverne.“
Ice Cream Shop • $$
“Best Italian ice spot in elmont/ franklin square. Prices are good, and they have many flavors. They also serve regular ice cream and milk shakes.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of flavors to choose from and they offer free samples, so you and your kids can try different flavors until you find one you like. They also have a small cup size for kids that's an appropriate portion for them.“
“What a great place I never knew existed. Honestly I didn’t know what to expect. The menu was a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Different flavors that I didn’t expect like the sliders. The cheesesteak sandwich demolishes anything from Philadelphia! Will definitely be back again!“
“Top Mexican restaurant of all time. We don’t get tired of the place nor the food. Top notch! The manager Cesar is incredibly welcome, so attentive, and keeps the place organized. Adan also greets you with a smile and always makes sure you are well taken care of. Paola and Darwin at the bar makes you have an amazing experience with any drink and their customer service is just top. Overall, we love this place and always recommend it to family and friends.“
“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!“
