“Good food 🥘 nice ambience“

“We love going to Capelettis — it’s a charming local restaurant that always makes you feel welcome. The owner and chef, Luigi, always greets you with a smile when you walk through the door, which makes the experience feel very personal and special.
He is an amazing chef — the pasta fagioli soup is the best, and everything is always delicious. The staff couldn’t be nicer, and the whole place has a very homey, local feel.
One of our favorite spots — we highly recommend it.“

“We visited on Saturday evening during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. From the moment we entered through the front door, we were welcomed by big smiles, big smells of delicious food, and what felt like a warm hug from a good friend. Classic and palette awakening cocktails. Try the brandade fritters and the best Caesar salad I have ever enjoyed. Sea bass was fresh out of the waters that surround the east end. The burger and the roasted chicken. For sides we ordered the onion gratin, romanesco and French fries. Surprise banana split for dessert. Delicious! See you again soon. Happy Holidays!“

“Went to Maroni for the first time today....we split the chicken parm, the chicken milanese, and the penne ala vodka. All of it was amazing!! I can't even choose which I liked best, as all three were so great. Had the meatballs as well, and they were also perfect. One of the best meals I've had in a while, and I have nothing but good things to say.“

“great staff and great food. The Chicken Franchaise is delicious“

“Service was excellent, ambiance 10/10. Food came in a timely manner and we wanted for nothing. Ordered the Cacio e Pepe, branzino and the rigatoni ragu special. Everything was delicious but having had the ragu special, the bolognese and the amatriciana pasta dishes here in the last month- they all taste the same. I'm sure the other dishes have a varied flavor profile but the meat sauces all have the same flavor and lack the oomph of a really good sauce.“

“The food is always good and great portions .“

“Great place to watch a game have a beer and eats on Sunday.“

“Stumbled by this bistro in Southampton and decided to go in for lunch. To our pleasant surprise we had a wonderful meal with excellent wine pairings suggested by our server, we loved our lunch so much we decided on having dinner at their NYC location the next evening, needless to say it was magnificent! Looking forward to trying the other locations….“

“Shared the duck and veal entrees which were both phenomenal. The duck was nice and crispy on the outside and perfectly medium in the middle. Fatty, fresh, delicious. The veal was chopped and mixed in with mushrooms in a delicious creamy sauce. That dish came with what is basically a German pasta on the side. We put the pasta in with the sauce so it would soak up all the flavor. Didn’t leave anything left on either plate. Will visit again next year when I’m on vacation“

“The food is excellent and the pizza is even better. There once a week. You will be pleased.“

“Pellegrino‘s is some of the finest Italian food on the East End. It also is a cool place to hang out with a casual vibe with no pretense.. as a local realtor when people ask me, what’s a great restaurant in the north sea area Pellegrino is always the first to come to mind. Great food fantastic service a small, but vibrant bar area or what you’ll find here.
They make a great pizza.
I cannot recommend this place more highly.
Stop in for a bite you will not be disappointed.“

“Nice vibe. But needs some work“

“Great atmosphere and menu“

“Great atmosphere and food!“

“Had the chance to visit Sam’s last week and happy to report it’s still the same classic, family friendly spot it always has been. The minute you walk in the doors, all the great memories come flooding back. Our food (four cheese pie with chicken and the linguine with locally caught seafood) was delish! Our server was lovely. I also got a vodka martini that was perfect. Looking forward to coming back later this summer!“

“Grilled Chicken Focaccia Grilled chicken, fresh Mozzarella, roasted peppers, pesto, sliced tomato served on toasted focaccia bread. 💯💯💯💯“

“I stopped by Melrose last night at 10 PM, hoping to grab something last minute. It had already been a little bit of an adventure, my dogs had run away as I was leaving the house, so by the time I finally made it there, the place was already closed.
The owner was walking out when he saw me and recognized me. I apologized for missing closing, but instead of simply saying, “Sorry, we’re closed,” he was incredibly kind and actually invited me back inside and made something for me.
Now, maybe that sounds like a small thing, but to me, it wasn’t.
I work in restaurants, and I know exactly what it feels like at the end of a long shift, when you’re exhausted, you’ve been dealing with customers all day, and all you want to do is go home. And yet, this guy chose kindness and hospitality anyway.
That is what hospitality is supposed to be.
It’s not just about the food or the service. It’s about the human moment. It’s about making someone feel taken care of when you absolutely don’t have to.
That experience meant a lot to me.
Wow. Just wow.
That’s the kind of restaurant owner, hospitality, and genuine kindness I aspire to create myself.
Thank you, Melrose. ❤“

“The best pizza ever! Thank you Nabil!!“
