“Family owned Italian restaurant since '72, the dad Nick was the cook and his 2 sons were working the front. Absolutely the best Italian place (the white pizza was amazing, so good I forgot a photo lol). I tried to convince them to come open one in Orlando lol. If you are ever in the area, please check this place out!!“
“My Favorite Hometown RestaurantAs soon as we walked in we were greeted with enthusiastic greetings from behind the counter. We've only lived in the area for 2 years and this feels like "our family place". High quality food and superior service. They ate attentive and accommodating.Give it a try!!!“
“I have never ordered from here before. We ordered a plain pie, pepperoni pie and garlic knots. I couldn't be any more happy with what we got. Let's talk about old school knots.... the ones your Grams used to make!!! Delicious. So we're the pizzas!!! We will now be regulars!“
“Saw the ratings for this pizzeria and since my son lives in Miller place I wanted to try it. Other closer pizzerias near his home I was not impressed with the flavoring was just not there. Vincenzo's has a wonderful taste and this is our go-to pizzeria from now on. My son loves it“
“Fantastic meal tonight. We had several food allergies including gluten and dairy. They were amazing at making sure that we had several options to meet all of our dietary needs. The owner came out and explained the menu to us. They were unbelievably helpful and the food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend the gluten-free/dairy free pizza with dairy free/vegan cheese. Our server, Jenna was fantastic! Everything was wonderful.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free and dairy free“
“ALWAYS TOP NOTCH. We went on a Friday night. We didn't know it was that last of resturaunt week. We usually try to avoid resturaunt week. We ordered the special of the day. Mahi mahi with muscles and calamari over linguine. OMG soooooooo good. Always greT food personable staff and super nice owner.“
“Joey Z's has some of the best breakfast around! I always enjoy coming here for consistently good food and quick service. I had the banana pancakes (which are my go-to) and my mom had the Eggs Benedict which came with potatoes. The staff and owner are so kind and make you want to keep coming back!“
“Best Pizza I have had since moving back to Long Island from Florida. The reg pizza was baked to perfection and the specialty slice I had was just as good. I found my new Pizza spot, I have to try every variety of slices they stock. Thanks for a great experience“
“Recently visited with friends for lunch. Table service was excellent with server explaining the specials along with recommendations on the basic menu items. Dining area was clean and overall ambiance simple but appealing. Ordered the chicken roll which they specifically cooked for me and a vegetable which were cooked to perfection. Overall service was great. Server checked up on us multiple times and we felt right at home, not rushed at all. Restaurant located on the main road but entrance and parking are behind the strip center off Hawkins.“
“Food was fantastic! We wanted something different and decided to check this local place out. The wings were fresh and crispy with amazing sauce. Fresh bread with dinner. Our main dishes were shrimp parm, chicken Marsala, and penne ala vodka. All of those dishes were phenomenal. After, we ordered some freshly made desserts. Every part of the meal was amazing. Definitely will return!“
“Pasta Pasta is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. I was there on Saturday March 16th for an afternoon lunch around 3pm. We were greeted right away and seating just as quickly. Our waitress was attentive and friendly while Anthony also provided us with the lunch menus. We shared all of our food so we could enjoy the amazing CHOCOLATE BAG!!! The space is very cozy and enjoyable and the menu options are incredible! I recommend!“
“As always this place is tops. Best cocktails and the food is always spot on. Best meal for lunch or dinner, flounder oreganata. Staff is always friendly and we love coming here again and again. We always meet the nicest people at the bar as well“
“Food was great. Our server was also really friendly and super patient with us. We were there with my friend’s toddler who was hangry. Also loved the affordable pricing and smaller portion sizes. For two adults and a toddler it was only $50 with appetizers. Overall, I’ll definitely be back.“
“I stopped in for a few slices after seeing my doctor, who is next door, and I am glad I did! The pizza not only looks delicious, it is insanely delicious! It's some of the best pizza I have had on Long Island! (and I have had a lot, haha). This place is under new ownership, and the owner is so nice you can tell he really cares about the customer experience and delivering amazing food and quality! Also, given what prices for slices lately have been, the fact that you get such large slices at such fair prices for such good pizza is really nice. I highly recommend this place for great slices, and I am sure the rest of the food is great, too. I will try it soon.“
“So friendly! So nice! Open late and delicious food!!! Something for everyone. Tonight we had everything delivered and I'm so glad!!! We had pizza, knots, the BEST mozzarella sticks, a yummy Greek salad, delicious spanakopita, and baked clams. Everything came nice and hot. Perfect Sunday night dinner for a late night with the family.“
“This place was great! Had a party to attend there, the food came out family style, appetizers were crispy and fresh, Caesar Salad, Fried Calamari, Mozzarella sticks, baked clams, fried Zucchini. Then lunch choices, Shrimp Scampi, Eggplant Rollatini & Chicken Piccata. Everything brought out was so delicious and well done, the pasta was not overcooked, the sauce was savory. I would recommend this place to anyone who was looking for a delicious meal at reasonable price!“
“Great food!!! Love the rustic ambiance. Perfect night out!Parking: The parking is a bit tight. They have two lots but they do not connect.Kid-friendliness: They were very accommodating and helped maneuver the stroller up and down the steps.“
“First time here so I didn't know what to expect but I was very happy that I chose to give this place a try. Service was excellent and the food was delicious and plentiful I will definitely be back in to try other items on the menu keep up the good work and chef never let the flame go out I could taste the passion in which you cook “
“I came back for some Pizza, and they did not disappoint. Staff was attentive and the Pizza was crispy, with a really good sauce. I liked looking at the wall of artist covers from some of the best bands, it's a great collection! I ended up taking some food home for my son, chicken Parmesan over ziti pasta. Again, the sauce was really good and the chicken was topped with homemade mozzarella cheese for a great meal. I'm definitely going back, so I can try a few more dinners.“
“I took my wife here for our 21st anniversary today and had a late lunch/early dinner. I don't have enough nice things to say about our experience. The food was arguably the best we've had in a long time. I had Chicken Parm with Penne and she had Broiled Shrimp with Asparagus Ravioli. We also had the Calamari which was perfectly done and delicious. Our server was on point. We can't wait to go back.“
“Waiter was very nice Gave me pizza Literally heavenly cheesy fries and WITH BACON, THE BEST FOOD IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE Very good bread Calamari was pretty good Soup was absolutely mouthwatering! Salad is pretty good For some reason my sister and brother ate the raw dough? That's nothing to fault the restaurant though, just my weird siblings. Huge portion of penne with meatballs but it was IMMACULATE“
“I came in a few weeks ago on a Saturday and couldn’t be happier with my experience! My server Debbie and Phillip were an absolute pleasure and guided me through the menu effortlessly and we’re always there checking on me. Let me tell you the Shrimp scampi was phenomenal and is a must try. I will be coming back but only when Debbie and Phil are there!!!“
“Have order a few times.Everything has been great each time. Each and every time the pizza crust has been light and fluffy no matter what type of pie we had.Employees are very friendly.This time we had ordered a Chick-fil-A pie, cinnamon bites and zeppolis the other night. One of the best specialty pies we have had and will get this again soon.I would definitely recommend eating here and giving them a try. You will not be disappointed.“
“Bella Maria is a family owned friendly place. Chef Roberto's menu is delicious. We have had celebration in the back and we stop by at.least once a week for lunch and dinner. During lent Bella Maria is the go-to place for Friday night meals.Parking: Their chocolate mousse cake is delicious. Home Made by chef Roberto. Try it, you won't regret it.“
“Pizza is not consistent but when it’s made properly it’s the best in Suffolk. But too many times have I gotten a pie for it to only be all cheese no sauce + floppy and undercooked.Garlic knots are horrible - don’t bother getting. Specialty slices are significantly better than their regular slice.“
“Open, cozy, clean, and well lit. Nice music selection, classical and operatic ballads.Booth was comfortable. Service was friendly though a bit slower-paced. This allowed us time to chat and look at the menu, but if we were pressed for time or starving, it might have been an issue. Food was great! Spinach, strawberry, and feta salad and spinach salad with bacon and mushroom both were tasty and not overdressed. Grandma slice had lots of saucy tomatoes and peppers. I didn't specify crispy, but I did wish it were crispier. Fried calamari appetizer was served with a generous bowl of delicious marinara. A few of the pieces had a hard bit. Would definitely come back!“
“If I ever want some good pizza, garlic knots or hot wings, I am ordering from Goomba Johnny's!! Should be the go to pizza shop in Selden!! Great food and fast delivery...Always good traits to have when you are a restaurant...lol Looking forward to ordering new items off the menu!! ?“
“Whoa, I did not expect this. About 30 minutes ago I just left the restaurant, having eaten a dinner with all my wife’s colleagues and friends. I really thought this was just a pizza parlor- but let me tell you, from the table bread with Tuscany oils and herbs, to the main course, this was by far one of the BEST experiences I’ve had eating out at an Italian place. The fettuccini Alfredo was excellent, the penne a la vodka was also excellent- pastas cooked perfectly and well-sauced with freshest ingredients. . Even the house salad was fresh and perfectly balanced with dressing, not too much, not too little.But that’s not the highlight of the night. The Manicotti dish was one of the best I’ve ever had. Delicate pasta shell cooked magnificently, in a homemade sweet marinara with fresh melted mozzarella on top…you ask yourself- with a beautiful presentation like this could it get any better? Well, the ricotta inside blended slightly with fresh herbs and cooked exactly to perfection, was the creamiest Ive ever known a manicotti dish to be. I work every day in NYC and can tell you this dish was better than most restaurants downtown. Clearly a 10/10 with a friendly staff and a clean environment, I had no idea this gem of a restaurant existed outside of the 5 boroughs. Reasonably priced, too, it’s apparent that the quality of the food here is of utmost priority and importance and I know that a dinner spent here is a memory made in bliss.“
“Tons of different pizza choices and options, we love coming here for a quick slice. Very friendly service and typical pizza shop atmosphere that's comfortable and inviting. Plenty of options from pizza to pasta, dishes, and salads. Overall great local place we will keep returning to!Vegetarian options: PlentyDietary restrictions: OptionsParking: Free parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Ramp, first floor.“
“Totally stoked we stumbled upon this gem! It's the ultimate pizza spot, no contest. The Grilled Chicken with Black Olives pizza? Mind-blowing. The freshness and quality of the ingredients? Unmatched. And the crust is just heavenly. Plus, the staff are super welcoming! This place has quickly become our go-to for pizza. Definitely making this a regular haunt and shouting out to all pizza aficionados. The flavours are next-level, and that crust is just perfection. They've got a killer selection of unique pies that I can't wait to dive into.“
“we used to go here all the time, and then we moved to Farmingville. Sometimes we take the trip out there which is not too far I now order on Uber eats and they have the best food and garlic knots! The house dressing is by far hands-down, the best I’ve ever had, my daughters asked me to order it tonight and I have been sick for a few days and couldn’t eat so I decided to get there chicken noodle soup. OMG! This is the best chicken noodle soup that taste like you made it at home, with fresh vegetables and fresh chicken , it is extremely tasty and really helped me“
“I stopped at Alberts Pizza about 2 weeks ago with my son before going to Shop Rite. I've lived on Long Island my whole life and I have to tell you that this was BY FAR the best Pizza I've had in years! My son had the BBQ chicken slice and another that I forgot the name of and he agreed that it was delicious. I had the chicken francaise slice and it was fantastic . The woman who helped us had long blonde hair, tatoos and a huge smile. She was beyond helpful, nice and funny! She explained that Alberts was under new ownership. I told her that the pizza was so good that it was "google review good" !! However with work and other things being crazy the last few weeks, I forgot to leave a review but here I am finally! Oh and the prices were cheaper than other pizzerias in the area which is funny because others in the are a are not as good! Thanks Alberts Pizza for the great food, service and atmosphere. We'll be back soon!?❤️??“
“Excellent pizza and subs! I always get take out here. The staff is always friendly and happy. Had one issue where they forgot my garlic knots one time but they quickly made up for it by making a fresh batch and gave me some extra free for my troubles,“
“It's one of those hole in the wall places you just go for the food. The best tacos we have had since leaving Southern California . It is a small Deli, counter serve style with 3 tables to sit.The food was excellent. The tacos, quesadilla, and Papusas everything was freshly prepared and hot. The meats are succulent and juicy.It's not very cheap, but the quality and taste of the food are well worth it.“
“I was frantic trying to plan a last minute party … they were amazing with helping us with everything ! I got a trey of chicken franchise a salad and the meatball sliders and it was absolutely amazing ! The portions were great the taste was great and the price was great ! Highly recommend them to “
“The Sea Basin is part of the Spears family. We celebrate many of our family events here and bring out of town guests to enjoy the great food. We have never had a bad meal or experienced poor service. The staff is always great. We'll keep coming back!“
“Our experience at Mangiamo was pleasant. Our server was very attentive and ensured not only was our order correct but to our liking. Our drinks were also very good. Would have liked some fruit in the sangria, but it was still very good. We ordered garlic cheese bread, mussels, spaghetti and meatballs, rigatoni with garlic and oil, and I had Broccoli rabe with sliced chicken. All very tasty and definitely enough to take some home at the end. Paid a little more than I was expecting to, but for the service, food, and atmosphere, it was worth it. We will be back. I recommend.“
“This place has a very small parking lot of its own, but there's street parking available. The inside is spacious and has space for large tables, nice lighting, comfy chairs, and a huge bar. Servers were attentive but not hovering, brought out breadbaskets and water r8ght away. All the dishes we got were very good, and the portions were very generous. Some of the dishes were on what I'd normally consider serving trays. The seafood was cooked just right, the shrimp were large and cooked to a nice bite. The mussels were big and cooked to perfection and not shriveled up. The meat was nicely seasoned and cooked it to medium rare like I asked. They also recommended a bottle of wine which was pretty good, we had 2. Overall, this was a hit and we're definitely coming back.“
“For a spot that has been opened for 1 week when we dined, it exceeded all expectations. We had to wait about 15 minutes past our reservation time to sit, but that's what the bar is for. What an incredibly beautiful bar and restaurant. Strong drinks and friendly staff. After we sat, the waitress was welcoming and attentive. We ordered several apps, salad midcourse, entrees and dessert. Elaine and her husband greeted every table and made us feel like we were dining at their home. Elaine even cut up, tossed and served us our salad while telling us a story about how it's the salad she's been serving at home for decades. All in all, this restaurant will be a staple in the Setauket community and will be placed into my personal rotation. 10 out of 10. Try the Brussel sprouts, halibut, any pasta, or the skirt steak. All Fab!“
“Amazing Gluten Free food and regular food. Can’t even tell the difference between them. The owner and staff are absolutely wonderful!! This place is my go to for all GF food. Almost their whole menu is GF, it makes you feel like a normal person being able to pick almost anything on the menu. Thank you again for amazing food!!“
“My boyfriend and I have gone here twice so far and we absolutely love it here!! The place is beautiful and very cozy, the staff is amazing, (We love Kerri!! She is amazing!!!), and the food is delicious!!! We will definitely be coming back again very very soon!!!“
“Asked tjem to make us muscles in a gorganzola sauce and they did.. It was Amazing.. So was the chicken monico (i think) a stuffed chicken breast deepfried and covered in a mushroom marsala type of sauce. Fantastic.. Last the deserts were off the hook.“
“If you need to plan a party then look no further. I was looking at several Italian restaurants for a surprise birthday party for my husband. Did not feel comfortable with what the others were offering for the prices they were charging and then I looked into Setauket Pastaria. After all I always ordered my take out food from there and the food is always excellent. So I sat down with Elena. She went over everything with me and decided to book my party of 20 guests there. The pricing was quite fair. I touched base with Elena several times beforehand and she always assured me that everything will be fine. Well, all my guests had an excellent time. I knew the party would be good but I was not expecting EXCEPTIONAL! The food was outstanding as well as the service provided by Elena and Yuresky who were our servers and went above and beyond to cater to all of my guests needs. One of my guests has Celiac Disease and needed her food made Gluten Free. No problem. In fact my guest told me that they definitely prepared her gluten free food correctly because she had no stomach issues the next day. Every one of my guests were given the gold star treatment. Elena went out of her way to accommodate everyone’s needs and preferences. The chefs did an amazing job. My guests were texting and calling me days after telling me how wonderful the party was and specifically mentioned the food and service. In addition I just wanted to add that whenever I come in for my take out order I am always greeted by the friendly faces of Collin and Jhendili (we call him “Jen” for short). They give the gold star treatment on the take out end. Thank you Setauket Pastaria!!!! You are the BEST!!!!“
“We ate on Wednesday to celebrate my birthday. This was our 30th visit and the best ever. We've eaten steaks at Lugers and Old Homestead and Sparks and the Orto flat-iron steak is the best. Perfectly cooked no gristle. They gave me a birthday custard. I love Suzanne , but Maddie was wonderful. And as a big wine drinker I love he BYOB policy. Peaceful place. JIM“
