“This is a favorite winery of my wife and I. Nice and comfortable grounds, good selection of wines, friendly staff. Got a bag of corks we used for decoration when they were cleaning up and the bartender asked if we wanted them instead of them just throwing out the corks. Also went to a dinner they host in their vineyard with the wine master, and a bunch of the staff. Most of the food was sourced from local farms. It was a very cool experience.”
“Went last night and the live music was amazing! The brewery was filled with a great all-ages group. Perfect for the whole family. Grab a bite and try the Leaf Pile! Awesome North Fork spot.”
“We're here now and really enjoying the great music, good wine and laid-back vibe. They are dog friendly and allow outside food. Great place. We'll be back!”
“Update: Went back their 1st day open again (March 28 2024).. and of course, had my favorite mezzo app! ? That pita bread ?Sam was great as always but one thing that did happen was a credit card charge on receipt but we paid cash. It says CC service charge. We just asked about it and then she said she forgot to take it off so we just told her if she took it off to just keep it as part of the tip we already left.Also we ordered mussels but felt like we took out a lot of empty shells. We found some in the broth but was alot of empty more than would be. Enough that we both questioned it. so we will try again.B loves the cornbread. I just remember the key lime pie I had last year for my bday. Yum!OLD REVIEW: I thought I already left a review but realized I didn't. This was my favorite discovery last Summer and I kept coming back bringing different people! I got sad to see it was temporarily closed but it is scheduled to open today and we are coming! ? Gotta go find all the pictures. I even celebrated my Bday there last year. Willing to drive from Southampton just to order to go ? Such a cute place...great food!”
“What an exceptional dining experience we had! Every dish was exquisite, with the Korean ribs standing out as particularly delightful. But what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional service. Maroni truly stands out for its top-notch food, attentive service, and inviting atmosphere. If you're seeking a memorable culinary journey, Maroni is a must-try option that won't disappoint.Special tip: Don't miss their sushi menu on Tuesdays - you can either dine in or order takeout.”
“Savory and sweet, with all kinds of fillings in interesting combinations, the best advice I can give is to come hungry and bring a friend so you can order more than one and share. The menu includes options for the adventerous, for the curious, and and for those who want something simple. The family has longstanding connections in the NoFo community and are warm and welcoming.”
“Wow. What a great experience! I was first introduced to Chef Payard as the pastry chef at a private club. Mind was blown. So I checked out his restaurant and was impressed with everything - the service, the menu, the creativity, the atmosphere, and the incredible food from start to finish. Do yourself a favor and check it out.”
“What a great little find in Peconic. A beautiful, quaint winery. They have small snacks and tons of Rose'. We had the still Jolie Rose'. Delicious! The staff is ready and waiting to help. Beautiful grounds. Quiet little spaces to get lost. Tell 'em Barsnobs sent ya!”
“Commendable from every aspect. Parking, waitstaff, view, and most importantly, the dinner. Another delicious experience from appetizers to desserts. Our table enjoyed the baby back ribs and burrata with figs as a start. Entrees included the filet mignon and the local striped bass. Vegetarian opted for the portobello mushroom. Topped off my experience with the chocolate martini for dessert. Luscious.”
“Want to give a huge shout out to the owners of Chenzas Twisted Tacos! I was passing through with my family the last few evenings, but was never able to get there before close. Last night, at about a few minutes to 8pm, which is closing time, I stopped and the owners took great care of us. Anywhere else and typically you would get “sorry, it’s closing crime!” This was not the case at Chenzas Twisted Tacos! They fired up the grill, fryer, and whatever else to accommodate my family and I. The food was excellent, the service was impeccable, and the place was immaculate. The owners took great care of us and treated us like family. We will definitely be back!”

“This is one of my favorite vineyards on the island. We discovered this place through my husbands Riverhead family hometown and it has become a quarterly addition to when we visit the family. We came here for a wine tasting and were introduced to the wine club and we haven’t regretted it. The team at Macari always follows up with member concerns and is genuine when things aren’t always seamless and try to make things right in the moment when you give feedback. Highly recommend if you are looking for a wine club and you live in New York City.”

“Really nice classic cocktail menu with some with some more modern twists. Really nicely executed glassware, ice and attention to detail. The staff super professional.”
“I can not tell you how what I felt walking into this place with a nostalgic feel of the country and a mom and pops feel shop cozy and calm. Stress free. My coworker and I ordered a Italian on a roll. Wanted a hero but they were sold out. You know what they did? Packed the roll so big it made up for what we wanted and it was one of the best we ever ate. God bless you and the sweet woman back there. I hope we will be out there more to get more from you. So generous and caring. After eating that sandwich I wanted to give you guys a hug for how well you took care of us. Thank you. We will be back. If anyone is doubting just do it. It's a step back in time and such a great place. Thank you to you guys.”
“This hole in the wall coffee shop is so cute! I wanted to get an affogato so badly, but went with a mocha latte instead because it was very cold and windy. The coffee was really good and high quality. The only thing I would say is the cafe is pretty small and when there’s a lot of people it can feel quite claustrophobic.”
“This is the best coffee around, and they roast in house. Traditionally I’m weary about in house roasters in a small town, but this place has it right. The baristas are very knowledgeable and efficient. As far as the space, it is rather small but quaint. If you are in the area and want 3rd wave coffee, this is going to be your best option available.”
“Wow ! What an amazing local place . I'd your not local hop on a ferry . Food is delicious and freshly made. Chicken Parm hero best I've had out. Staff super nice and courteous. Doesn't have to be fancy to be so good . Best of all, so friendly priced.”
“Such a great experience. The owner is charismatic and I believe stopped at every table. I lived in Alaska for 7 years and I've eaten a lot over Halibut. The special was Halibut w/ a champagne caviar sauce and it was in the top two I've had the pleasure to enjoy in the lower 48. The Truffle grilled cheese was awesome. The duck was cooked perfectly. The steak fritz was on point. The soup dujour was cream of cauliflower and was just perfect on the pallet. We will definitely be back for the aged steaks and more.”
“Lucy is amazing - works behind the bar and out in the floor effortlessly. The food is fantastic but if the service stinks it doesn’t matter. Ellen’s hits the nail on the head.”
“Hands-down, some of the best pizza around! It is always fresh, delicious, and most applicable seeing how expensive everything is which sadly makes it hard to support locals As much as one would want. But They truly are affordable here!. Not to mention accommodating as much as possible. I really like these guys, And the young students they employee. It’s hard to have service, Quantity and quality, but they seem to have all three! ?✌️”
“Such a sweet place with the best food we've had in as long as we can remember. I had the Eggs-in-a-Hole with the creamiest grits and best roasted tomatoes. The brioche bread was light and toasted perfectly. Hubby had the Crab Cake Benny on a biscuit that included fried green tomatoes and the best lemony hollandaise sauce. Even the decaf coffee was super tasty. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The ambiance was perfect. Just the feeling you want when you go to wine country. We will be back.”
“Always Delicious and amazing experience. Is a fusion of guatemalan/latin/ american cuisine. Everything is so delicious. The owners are amazing. It is very recommended for a small bite or a full meal.”
“As a starter, we opted for the Chicken and Lemongrass dumplings, and let me tell you, they were absolutely divine! They're delicately steamed and served in a zesty ginger glaze, accompanied by a Thai dipping sauce. They're so delicious, you don't even need the dip! The marinated filet mignon steak tips also never fail to impress – they're consistently tender and bursting with flavor, making them a must-have every time we dine here. As for the main course, we invariably choose the baby back ribs. Good ribs are hard to come by in New York, but this spot has by far the best ones on the North Fork! The prices are reasonable, the cocktails consistently deliver on flavor, and the service is consistently excellent... all in all, just exceptional across the board.”
“This is a quaint neighborhood bakery that's open year-round. We popped in during an icy day a couple of weeks ago- it was a comfort to be greeted by the warmth, friendly staff, and the delicious aromas of coffee, baked goods, and chocolate. We picked up a lemon meringue pie, Italian rainbow cookies, and frosted sugar cookies; all were delightful. Looking forward to our next visit.”
“The BEST ice cream on Long Island! We have been stopping here for years. A must stop on your way to the East End. You will not be disappointed. So many ice cream flavors. Everyone loves the Magic Fountain including our dogs ??”
“OH WOW! I didn't think this area would have any good Spanish food lol. This Salvadorian food was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! All made fresh, juicy, amazingly seasoned. We only come to the area once a year and this is going to be our go to spot for now on.”
“The food, vibe and service were all A+ at Alpina. Everything we tried from the Swiss beer, to the entrees to the desserts was excellent. Extremely fresh food, kind and attentive staff and very cool and cozy atmosphere inside. Already can’t wait to go back!”
“Shannon was the best! She was so helpful and informative. Seriously the best Service. Go to this vineyard if you want personalized service and the most helpful staff.”
“I came here as part of a wine bus tour. It was my least favorite of the three wineries we visited. We felt like just a number here, as it wasn't a very personalized experience. An employee came on to our bus to welcome us but after that, we were pretty much on our own. We tasted four wines, which were served in plastic cups. Other than brief descriptions printed on a sheet on the serving tray, not much information was shared about the wines. You could purchase hot dogs here as well as "sangria," which was basically just a rose spritzer. We walked through the vineyards but they were not as picturesque as other spots. One nice touch was that there was a band playing live music. It's a decent place to visit and a nice outdoor option to get out of NYC but wouldn't be at the top of my list to return to.”
