50 Best Cocktail Bars near Plainview

“Very nice inviting decor. Service was just ok. The server was basic, didn’t tell us it was happy hour? Nor did she mention and food selections. For a new establishment I guess I was expecting a bit more … maybe ask if we had been there before? Check back to see how our food was( it was outstanding), we got more help from the water girl Had to ask to clear table. Had to ask for check from the water girl? The server had much support. Seems she took our order and disappeared. But the server assistants were on point. Dinner was really good. We will go back… because of the food. Even the manager walked pasted us a dozen times. There were 6 tables.. perfect time for manager to mingle… just saying. Place is very nice, great menu too. Just left feeling ignored. Nice music too. Maybe the server was having a bad day? Like I said we will go again !!! Great food.“

“My husband and I had such a wonderful experience at KAHANI! From the delicious food to the amazing drinks and exceptional service, everything was fantastic. My only wish is that the restaurant were a little bigger because it’s definitely a place I’d love to spend more time in!

We started with the seasoned, crispy roti-like chips, which were absolutely delicious! We also ordered the chili cheese naan and peshwari naan, both of which were incredible. For our main dishes, we enjoyed the lamb vindaloo, chili paneer, and chicken tikka. Everything was packed with flavor, and the drinks were just as impressive!

The service was quick, attentive, and perfectly timed. A special thank-you to our waitress, Tanveen, who was wonderful throughout our visit! She and the rest of the staff were extremely accommodating and made us feel so welcome.

Overall, we had an amazing evening. The food, drinks, atmosphere, and hospitality made this a memorable experience. We will absolutely be returning and highly recommend KAHANI to anyone looking for delicious food and outstanding service!“

“This is now my mid-week highlight, loved Live Music Wednesday! All the staff members were welcoming and accommodating....the facilities were clean, drinks were good and there was bar food available that night. Derrick Barnett and The Statement Band were high energy as usual. The owner is a dynamic performer too!

A Wicked Wednesday night!!!!!!!“

“John (Owner) and Eric (bartender) are both great guys who fit perfectly with the creative small plates, generous drinks and warm, inviting ambiance. Add music on certain nights (check FB), and you have a winner!“

“Went with my fiance before dinner for some drinks and lite bites. Loved the oysters which came with their house made cocktail sauce and vinaigrette - these were $34 for a dozen so not cheap. Recommend sticking to on menu drinks vs create your own. Cindy was great and so accommodating.“

“This little spot goes toe to toe with the best in NYC!

Really incredible find! The food and drinks were phenomenal. Literally no complaints. Staff and manager extremely nice and attentive.

So happy we stumbled on this spot. We will absolutely be back.

We ate in the bar lounge and didn’t do the Omakase, but it was fantastic.

The Martinique fashioned cocktail was delicious. Please do not get rid of this!

Bit of a bummer A5 Wagyu no longer available for the lounge bar entrees, but the skirt steak version was best skirt steak I’ve had in years. Everything is NY source and preference for high quality cuts and fresh ingredients.

Top notch! Crazy this place doesn’t have more reviews.“

“Really great spot for drinks and food, plenty of delicious creative options! Big fan always coming back, and it helps to know they have help out amazing organizations as well!“

“We moved off Long Island over 8 years ago and always loved la Parma when we lived here even though it was an hour drive for us to enjoy the amazing food. This time when we came up to visit for Christmas we knew we had to get there for a great dinner. I can easily say it still is one of the best places to get amazing Italian food around. The Chicken Napoli was phenomenal and there is nothing like their penne à la vodka! The drinks were great and service was top notch. We also happened to go the day after Christmas when we got lots of snow and the car valet even brushed off our car! We were so happy to not feel rushed because we were there with great friends and just really enjoying ourselves! We can’t wait to come back and visit from Georgia to have their food again!“

“While we don't make it to Piccolo all that often it never fails to excel. Everyone is made to feel like a regular and the wait staff is exceptional. Food is always outstanding, timing is impeccable and one never feels rushed. Tight quarters, but it all runs like a well oiled machine. Varied menu, lots of specials- I recommend the soft shell crab francese.“

“I've been playing there for years and Dave and staff have always been awesome to me and my bands!“

“Perfect little cozy spot for Breakfast/ Lunch with a European Atmosphere, spacious with seating that allows privacy and comfort.
Breakfast was great , I loved the touch of Lettuce on the plate which was tasty along with the potatoes and Eggs . The only thing that bothered me was the Bill which much to my surprise was $ 5.00 for a small cup of coffee.. that added $ 10 for my friend and myself. The issue is NOWHERE on the menu is it listed .. Our Waiter David was attentive and pleasant, but he should have mentioned that a cup of coffee is extra or offered a glass of Orange juice .. I’ll go there again because I really like the place and it’s close to my home .. next time I’ll ask if the glass of water they put in the table is in place of a nice morning cup of coffee…“

“Everything that my family have eaten from this amazing place has been delicious! Only one more item left to try which gives us a reason to go back ! Then plan to do a lot of replete orders.“

“We reserved the entire restaurant for our employee appreciation luncheon with just over 100 in attendance. Yes it was crowded, but it was my choice not to use the upstairs (we served alcohol). Danny and Kaitlin could not have been more accommodating, food was thoroughly enjoyable, the bar tender was great and the wait staff were on their game.“

“Hubby and I went there last night for first time. Great experience, amazing food and nice crowd. This is going to be our new go to spot on fridays.“

“Vauxhall has been one of our favorite places for a burger or the fried chicken sandwich. Yesterday, 5//7/24… we went for a late lunch. I decided to try the new Double Smash burger. It was by far, the best burger I’ve ever had. My wife had her usual, the fried chicken sandwich. We’ve never had anything but a great meal and drink at our favorite Huntington haunt.“

“Fun time with friends! Our waiter Puma was excellent!“

“The best coffee baristas I love RS BEANERY!!! If your having an awful day just come there and you’ll be cheered up by the wonderful staff!!!! Can’t recommend RSB ENOUGH!!!!!“

“Just had our 5th grade graduation dance and it was absolutely amazing. The staff, the food and the attention to detail was spot on. Can't wait to have another reason to throw a party at Bar Grazi!!“

“Surf and Turf special was wonderful and service was well trained but what can't be trained is the kindness of the staff and the willingness to go above and beyond to make the occasion special.“

“Had such fun at the murder mystery!“

“Great vibe, Great bands and of course Olivia making great drinks. 🍹“

“Went in for breakfast. Our server was decent. Walked away as I was finishing telling him my order, which came out ICE COLD & WRONG!!!! I requested a ham, COOKED/SAUTÉED ONION & American cheese omelet, fries and RYE toast with crispy bacon. My omelet was well done, the onions RAW, fries were ice cold my bacon was not cooked and not there had to tell the runner, and my toast was marble. All this for OVER &50.00!!! The server came by, we were basically finished. Asked how everything was. How would he or the runner know our order. Neither one looked at the order. NEVER AGAIN!!!“

“By far my favorite place to eat The food is exceptional the ambiance is gorgeous And THE SERVICE IS OUTSTANDING Carmela and Ciara are so accommodating, professional and their customers are their #1 priority I'm moving to SC And I'm sad not to be able to go to dinner at Mangi e Bevi and see my favorite servers anymore But this restaurant is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!'“

“Delicious food and a great service too!!“

“We were looking for somewhere to grab a bite to eat before going to a lecture at the Merrick Public Library. The photos of the food looked fabulous, so we decided to give Bourbon & Brews a try. We were greeted by Will, who rocks, offering happy hour specials and cocktails in a pint glass. Burgers were great, and the nachos were superior. Definitely will be back!“

“Delicious food and great service!!“

“Fantastic authentic flavorful food“

“The food is amazing, and the staff is always friendly and on point. I highly recommend this place to everyone if you are in the NYC area. It is in Forest Hills, Queens, NY right next to the Forest Hills train station. ----“

“I enjoyed a Friday night dinner there. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The bartenders were very attentive.
The dining room is small,outdoor seating and seating at the bar is available.

They are able to open the large windows in the front of the restaurant and gives an all around al fresco dining experience. It was a very warm day, and I would have preferred air conditioning but it was still nice.

I didn't have a reservation, but was able to sit at the bar. Which was very nice.

They have a good drink menu with nice cocktails and a good selection of wines and beers. I went with a Peroni.

The menu is small but the is a great selection. The roasted chicken wings were delicious, the Uncle Frank's Pizza and the Meatball Pizza were excellent!

I will go back to Uncle Franks but will remember to make a reservation.“

“I was in town from Florida visiting cousins & they heard great things about this place, so we figured we would try it out! Well, it did NOT disappoint in every way! The decor and vibe is really cool with a beach/nautical theme. The food and drinks were delicious! The roasted brussel sprouts & the Shepherd’s Pie was to die for! Our waitress, Nicole, was great and funny! The bartenders, Joe & Katie, made amazing & different cocktails and were so warm & attentive! They had a one man band singing who was really talented! We even met the owners who could not be more welcoming, friendly and attentive making sure we were having a great time and we were happy with everything! If I lived here, I would definitely come here often, and definitely will be returning on my next visit! Check this everything out for sure….and you’re welcome in advance!!?????“

“Great place to eat and bring your puppy. Bentley enjoyed a few raw patties and I enjoyed a burger. Great placement! Loved the teddy symbol on the burger. The teddy bear toothpick was nice touch. Quiet and quick. Will be coming back!“
