Myles on Main 428 E Main St, Riverhead Burgers • $$

“Myles on Main earns a well-deserved 5 out of 5 from our family, even impressing our pickiest eaters! The homemade fries with a selection of five seasonings were a hit with our kids, and the meatloaf was both hearty and delicious. Portions were generous, prices pleasantly reasonable, and the staff exceptionally accommodating. We're looking forward to returning to try the Steak Frites and Penne Pasta with Roasted Chicken. Highly recommend!”

Rocco's Pizza 1285 Old Country Rd, Riverhead Pizza • $$

“I work just down the road from here and have been going there for lunch for years to get pizza.
They have the absolute best pizza in Riverhead.
My favorite is their grandma margherita slice, omg the fresh tomatoes and mozzarella, garlic and pesto drizzle is amazing!
Not to mention I can never eat a sausage and peppers slice again from anywhere else and enjoy it as much, they literally make sausage and peppers, sautéed garlic, tomatoes and onions with the pan sauce and put it on a deep dish pizza!
I rarely ever give reviews, I should have given this place one years ago.
Thank you for all the amazing food!
Also much love to my friends at the counter Jessli, Kenny, and Brian (hope I'm spelling your names right) who always make me feel at home.
One of these days I HAVE to try a special, every time I see the specials board at lunch it kills me lol.
If you try this place, you will like it.
I'm pretty sure they couldn't make bad food even if they were trying.”

“Staff was nice. Great place to bring kids. They have giant connect 4 game and fun decor. Food was decent for a sports bar pubby kind of place... My daughter loved her pasta, and she ate up all the leftovers too!! I'd definitely go again if I'm ever in the area! It's a little off the main road so we had a little trouble finding the place, be nice if they had some signs pointing you down the right block!

“The best and most authentic polish food on Long Island. We celebrated my daughters first birthday this weekend. The food from Polka Deli was phenomenal. My guest were amazed by how good, fresh and tasty everything was! And it made my heart smile. I ordered staffed cabbage, bigos, kielbasa, pork lion in horseradish sauce, chicken Marsala, turkey meatballs, pierogies, pork shoulder with veggies, blitzes, potato wedges. Everything was amazing. I wont order from anywhere else for my holidays, parties and even dinner with friends! Why cook at home if you can easily say that you made it lol - it taste so good. I recommend Polka Deli for 100%, Anna puts her heart into it and you can taste it in her food. Very accommodating and friendly staff and lots of polish delicatessen on top of the best homemade cooked food.”

Lolly the owner still cooks there on Wednesdays snd the place was packed and I loved how everyone knows her and she knows everyone's names. Eggs and omelets were cooked perfectly. And Lolly cooked the potatoes by where she was cooking the sausages and bacon so all that yumminess and flavor was mixed together. Server kept the drinks flowing and always checked in with us. I'm so glad this place is still not only surviving but thriving!”

“I wish I could say I had a good experience here. I came in with my wife and my service dog for lunch today. They kept refusing service & said they didn’t care if I had a service dog: that the manager wasn’t budging. I informed them that it’s federal law to allow a service dog anywhere that I’m allowed. My dog was not misbehaving or acting out in anyway. I explained to her that not only could I pursue legal action but they can also be fined $75,000 for refusing service. They finally agreed to let me stay as I was persistent and but told me I wasn’t allowed to bring her back. Please educate your staff about the legal rights of service dogs, it’s stressful for us. It’s no different than someone having a wheelchair or another medical device.”

FUNCHOS 1156 W Main St, Riverhead Tacos • $

“Brutally honest review coming. The food was incredible. Tacos were stuffed full and at a fair price. The music was top tier. Staff was friendly and the food came out quick. The margaritas were stiff and tasty. The chips are insane haven’t had any others like them. I don’t know what’s going on with the negative reviews but I think they’re all liars. Certainly coming back next time I’m in town. If you’re choosing between here and another spot, choose Funchos.”

Lolly's Hut 1290 Old Country Rd, Riverhead American • $

“Very very cool OG diner serving a simple classic and delicious menu. Their pancakes, especially the blueberry are amazing.. fluffy, with a perfect thin buttery crust around the outside. Lolly the owner still cooks there on Wednesdays snd the place was packed and I loved how everyone knows her and she knows everyone's names. Eggs and omelets were cooked perfectly. And Lolly cooked the potatoes by where she was cooking the sausages and bacon so all that yumminess and flavor was mixed together. Server kept the drinks flowing and always checked in with us. I'm so glad this place is still not only surviving but thriving!”

“Came in for chicken salad that I used for a tea party, the chicken salad was good and the new owner and workers are very nice! While there we also ordered bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches, they were decent, but the bagels are not the same as they used to be though.”

Buffalo Wild Wings 1761 Old Country Rd, Riverhead Chicken Wings • $

“Staff is friendly. Regular clientele, i think mostly locals. Parking is within the shopping area and free. Definitely reliable venue. Food was good and quick. Wings were cooked right, crunchy and plenty of sauce options. Ambiance was very sporty. 45 TVs from which we could count.”
