“Lobster Sunday!!!! We had a wonderful young college student as our server who was outstanding. I had a great cocktail thanks to the attentive bartender. The food is always great.“

“What an amazing, hidden treasure! Excellence in dining, experience, and atmosphere. Perfect from start to finish! Looking for a place to have a great experience… this is it!!!“

“We love going to Foster—at this point, you could say we’re regulars. We typically sit at the bar. We especially love their specials, and I’m still thinking about the elk burger I had last year (please bring it back!).The oysters are always fresh and delicious, and the fried chicken is absolutely amazing. Recently, I’ve been loving the salmon with corn and shishito succotash and blueberry teriyaki. Honestly, everything is consistently fresh and delicious.

John, the bartender, makes excellent cocktails—many with fun names like Silence of the Lambrusco. He puts a lot of care into his craft, from house-infused ingredients to thoughtful presentation. He also always keeps you hydrated with their house water, which I truly appreciate.

Happy hour is a great deal and is available at the bar only, Wednesday through Sunday from 5:00–7:00 pm, and all night on Mondays. We love ordering the wood-fired Margherita pizza and fried chicken wings for $12.36, along with their house margarita at $10.30—delicious and affordable.

When we do get a table, the service is always spot on.

We feel lucky to have such an amazing restaurant in our neighborhood.“

“I experienced Nettie’s for the first time last evening. My dining experience was excellent from arrival to departure. The food was “DELISH!” The owner was welcoming & hospitable, the service was good, and the music and atmosphere wea awesome! I am so pleased and proud to have a “Black” owned establishment where you can dine in Queens in a tasteful environment, supporting our entrepreneurs and our community. I, along with others will be back!!!“

“These prices r better in NJ. The lunch is 1099 and you also can take lunch out to go home. The only good thing here is that you can have the lunch time in and just have to wait to pack it up to take it to go home what's a lunch is 1299 here in N.Y. Also the food in NJ was cooked better I had to return the pasta for some new one cooked properly. Cold meat.“

“I came here for a get together for a friend's graduation.

It's a really nice family-owned restaurant in the area. Would be a decent date spot, especially because of the outdoor seating... call ahead and see if you can bring a board game.

Kimchi burger was amazing and I'd come back just for that!“

“West End Cafe is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the service is seamless—the wait staff is incredibly attentive and makes you feel right at home. The food is standout, especially the Romano crusted chicken and the crispy duck tacos, which are packed with flavor. Pair your meal with one of their specialty cocktails, like the Sparkling French Martini for the perfect experience. Whether it's a quick bite or a long lunch, the vibes here are unmatched! 🥂✨“

“I had the tuna and it was absolutely delicious!!“

“I had an amazing experience at Applebee’s Grill + Bar, and it was all thanks to Crystal, our waitress. From the moment we sat down, she was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and professional. She made sure our drinks were always full, checked on us at the perfect times, and gave great menu recommendations.

What really stood out was her positive attitude and genuine care for the customers. Even though the restaurant was busy, she handled everything smoothly and made us feel like a priority. Service like this truly makes the whole dining experience better.

If you visit Applebee’s, I highly recommend asking for Crystal. She’s a fantastic waitress and a great example of what excellent customer service looks like. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The food was incredible. Everyone enjoyed their meal.“

“We actually never went to this location before, but had greatly enjoyed their prior second location in Port Washington. Expectaions were right on point. Food was excellent from appetizer to the main course. Maybe it's weird but I kind of respect even the small things like when a restaraunt offers to chose to serve in house brewed ice tea as opposed to something pre processed. The Brisket from todays specials list was perfect. This restaurant is 45min drive from home and well worth the trip. Thank You, we will be back.“

“Customer service was excellent!!!The atmosphere was very beautiful. The food was very delicious. The craziest thing was my boyfriend and I would pass by there all the time not knowing about this restaurant until I went for my birthday. The experience was everything 💕I will definitely be coming back to try their delicious food.“

“I wanted to Thank Everyone at the Sunrise Diner for all the years they made my Parents feel like family whenever they went there. My Father has since passed but my Sister took my Mother there today and they gave my Mom hugs, told her they loved her and how cute she was. I was in tears when I heard this from my Sister. I am so Happy that my Mom has this place to go to to get out and feel so loved by so many. Over the years the Sunrise Diner has been a very Happy Place to go to. The service is the best we've ever had. They've treated my Family like Family. I cannot thank the People at the Sunrise Diner enough! They mean so much to my Family. And you can't beat their food!!! I've never had a bad meal their. Love all of you. Hope to get back to Wantagh soon and see you all! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH♥️“

“My family and I went to Veranda restaurant in Bayside yesterday for. Birthday dinner. The restaurant is well located, with street parking and valet service as well. There’s an outdoor patio, that for obvious reason we couldn’t use. The temperatures in NY have been in the single digits lately. The food and the service were on another level! Gregory was very attentive, welcoming and friendly. The food was finger liking good! I had the pan seared scallops with spinach risotto and OMG. I can’t wait to go back. Everyone was pleased with the their food choices and I highly recommend this place, unfortunately I didn’t take pics of everyone’s food. Only if mine, I hope you find this review useful. Happy dining:)“

“The team from River Mill has fed our team multiple meals and it has all been delicious! The owner is absolutely amazing and the staff was all friendly with great service!“

“Delicious breakfast old style atmosphere“

“Our first time here. We will be back.
There is valet parking, which in 10 degree weather is a huge plus.
There was a coat check which is another perk.
Then we were seated in the main dining area in a lovely and comfortable table with a cloth tablecloth and napkins, which is a great commodity nowadays in an era where even upscale restaurants have given into.
The service was phenomenal.
Presented with warm fresh rolls along with the menus. A food menu and a drinks menu.
We dined a three course meal which was outstanding. From the starters to desert everything was cooked perfectly, plated and presented like an upscale restaurant should.
The meal, service and atmosphere was worth the price.
See you soon.“

“Great new family restaurant with fantastic vibes. Televisions everywhere. Great bar. Staff and owners create a family environment. We have been there twice in 1 week and they remembered us when we walked in the door the 2nd time. Rueben spring rolls were a must both trips as was the shepard's pie. Meals are huge! Prices are great.“

“I started off looking for “just a bar” and stumbled across Teddy’s. What I found was a modern interior with a pleasant staff that was willing to accommodate anything and everything. Oyster Bay is not the friendliest place for minorities but genuinely, I feel like I am home at Teddy’s. Thank you!“

“I had my daughters sweet 16 party at the Coral. The place was very nice, the workers were very helpful and courteous. The manager Frank was very helpful from the beginning when we went to get information about the venue, he gave detailed information about what options was available to us.
I would definitely recommend the Coral House to anyone that wants to have a great looking place, great service, and great atmosphere to have an event.“
