It's good to have an establishment like this within the community. Thank you for all your hard work and service. If you haven't eaten here before, please consider. This is my go to diner spot. My 3 sons enjoy eating here as do I.“

“Stopped in with my old man friend and neighbor after helping him run some errands. The food and service was definitely fantastic, I’ll be coming back soon! But it wasn’t just about food and service. It was the cozy family feel that some of the big diners are missing. I loved the enthusiasm when talking about some of their specials, Irish eggs Benedict is my next dish to try! Thank you so much and see you soon!“

“I love the atmosphere and the food and cocktails! I haven’t been for a very long time. I am handicap, I use a walker and sometimes a wheelchair and your place is not accessible The ramp is steep and you cannot get to the rest rooms. I’m sure you don’t have many complaints regarding this issue, but I would love to be able to enjoy your tiki bar/ restaurant once again. Thank you !“

“What a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! I'll go anywhere for a good duck breast, this place absolutely delivered 110%. Right amount of char, the seasoning, and it was cooked to perfection. Smoked salmon and burrata apps were delicious. We couldn't be happier with the very attentive service, quaint atmosphere - and the food was really on point for such an unassuming location. Also, the hot rice pudding with golden raisins was fantastic, as close to grandmas recipe as I can remember coming across! Keep up the spectacular work!“

“My mom and I hosted a baby shower here, just this past weekend, and we feel we need to scream from the rooftops just how amazing it was! The staff was phenomenal, anything we needed they were right there to help! The food was stellar and all of our guests were talking about how they wish they could load up to go containers from the buffet! If you ever have to throw an event, do yourself the favor and check them out! The owner is the nicest guy and really just went above and beyond to help make the shower perfect! If I could give more than 5 stars I would !!“

“We found this place after seeing it on Facebook. This place is incredible, great staff, super professional & friendly, and the food is incredible. My husband is gluten free, and the owner reviewed the menu with us to let us know what was and wasn’t. There are so many GF options. Everything fried is fried with rice flour, which is incredible. We order the Lillys little pickle, grilled cheese with bacon on gluten free bread, with the soup of the day which was split pea soup. And the Jacob’s Fancy Plant. We devoured everything before I remembered to take photos. 10 out of 10 and looking forward to coming back and trying more items on the menu!“

“😋 Chef Charles for the evening was amazing. He made a fabulous 9 course meal for my husband and I. From setting a beatiful table with flowers to gourmet delicious food and leaving a perfectly cleaned up kitchen as if we ate out. However, having all the comforts of home. Not to mention his presentation of each dish was fabulous! Can't wait to have a big dinner party using chef! Thank you Chef Charles! Thank you our friend, Eva, for the beautiful gift of chef for the evening! Such a spectacular idea!“

“Exelente comida y Exelente servicio“

“Had a great experience here last night. The food was cooked perfectly. Enjoyed some of the best baked clams I’ve ever had. The drinks looked very creative as well. The skirt steak was tender and marinated in a delicious marinade. The service was helpful but it wasn’t a rushed experience by any means. The patio is dog friendly as well. I will be back!“

“Watch Hill is a campground and glamping site inside Fire Island National Seashore, and it’s basically one of the most unique “nature stays” near New York City. You don’t get there by car—you take a ferry from Patchogue and then walk or use a wagon to reach your tent or campsite. The whole experience feels like a mix of beach escape, camping, and national park isolation.

It’s very popular in summer because of the ocean access, safari-style tents, and the fact that you’re staying right in a protected coastal wilderness area.“

“I have to visit when I’m the area. Very cozy and friendly place. The food is great!“

“Awesome variety of food and service always with a smile. Would definitely recommend ❤️“

“Haven’t had a burger that good in quite a while…“

“Oh my goodness, my family went to Billie’s for Easter Dinner last night! The food was out of this world. Everything we got was spot on from the appetizers to the dessert! The service was amazing, and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg to enjoy a night out. I’m looking forward to going back when the weather is a bit warmer and eating on their back deck. I consider myself a bit of a foodie and this place was top-notch! Definitely give it a try. Oh, and it wasn’t packed like every other establishment town Port!“
