“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.“

“Food is good. Service was a little slow due to there being only one server/bartender doing double duty. Went for a quick afternoon lunch. Sat outside which was nice. They have ample outdoor seating. Cocktails were not strong. So ended up sticking to wine for the balance of my drink orders.“

I would especially like to commend Sean for the exceptional management of the logistics and preparation. The quality of the food and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and it sincerely exceeded our expectations.

“I just had my daughter’s baptism at Fabio’s. From the food to the service everything was amazing! My guests were raving about the food. We did family style and it was more than enough food. We even had leftovers to take home! Fabio went above and beyond helping us set up the decorations the night before my party. We never felt rushed (we were there til 1am). He wants his guests to have a great experience and we did! Thanks to Fabio, Rose, Marty and the entire staff for a great party!“

“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.“

As a parent, this meant the world to me because I did not want her to feel uncomfortable.. thank you and we will be back! Please support!“

“Angelo’s Little Italy is the best. I’ve been there for dinner several times and they never disappoint. From the service to the food, everything is great. This past weekend, we had my sister’s bridal shower there. Tina the owner and her staff went above and beyond. We were able to arrive an hour and a half before our party to decorate. They even offered to hang a command hook on the wall so we could hang something. We had a brunch menu and Bellinis, mimosas & bloody Mary’s. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend giving them a try for lunch or dinner or if you are hosting a party. Can’t wait to go back again!“

“Maroni's is as good as you've heard. If you're not from the Northport area, they're worth the trip.

The family style food was perfect and we had a wide selection to choose from. I would definitely recommend Porto Fino for a party.“

“We came here for weekday lunch. Our server Emily was amazing! She was exceptionally personable and communicated with us about delays in the kitchen since the restaurant was serving a large party. She continued to check up on us and was very sweet. Eggplant rollatini and cheesy garlic bread were delicious appetizers. For entrees, we had the penne alla vodka (portion was a bit smaller than expected) as well as the chicken marsala, chicken parm, and arugula pie, which were all good. This place is a bit pricy but it is an upper/mid range Italian restaurant. The actual dining area is cozy and intimate. They have a cute bar area upon walking in. Parking lot is a bit cramped but doable. We had a great time!“
