“My Husband and I stumble across this place tonight and couldn’t be happier about it! From the moment we walked through the door on a busy Saturday night at 7:00pm we walk in simply based on a great name! The hostess Deanna was lovely and welcoming we were able to sit right away! The food was absolutely amazing and so were the drinks!! But the star of the show was the staff our waitress Emily was the best we have ever had! Just the right amount of attentive that we never looked for her and always felt taking care up. The busser also did an amazing job never a dirty plate on our table. We go out alot and I can’t remember the last time a restaurant covered it all flawlessly Service drinks and food. We have already texted friend excited to bring them here! Can’t wait to come back keep up the amazing work!“

“We had a Mothers Day celebration Sunday at this fabulous seafood restaurant. There were 15 of us- 9 adults and six children between 5 and 12. We traveled an hour to get there. The food was delicious- fresh, tasty and the portions were so large that everyone took a doggy bag home. It was served by a great staff including Angel who was our server. The owner, Donna, was very cordial and friendly. Everyone had a great time. We can't wait for our next family dinner to return. This is a must restaurant if you are a seafood lover!!“

“We had such a great time yesterday at the View. Food is delicious and came out in a timely manner. What we really enjoyed the most was the live music that was playing. The woman last night, I believe her name is Debbie Dee was phenomenal and we really enjoyed listening to it as we sat by the water. Highly recommend this restaurant for a date night, friends night out, or simply drive your boat right up and grab some food“

“I can not believe that this restaurant has been here on Main Street in Port Jefferson Village for over 20 years and I never ate there!!! This is my new Favorite place to eat. The food was exceptional and good size portions. The pita bread they put out on the table was so delicious I could have made that my meal. The service was extremely attentive and so personable. The Owner came around greeting everyone and made us feel like we were all family having dinner together. I am looking forward to my next visit.“

“Last night we (2 couples) went to Ruth Chris Steak House in Lake Grove, NY for dinner and had the best dinning experience we have had in awhile. It is now our favorite steak restaurant. The food is outstanding, compliments to the chief!! Also, I would like to comment on our waitress, Kim, who is terrific!!! She was so attentive to all our requests, took care of us all night. Also, the manager is a real gentleman, and he also made us feel comfortable and special. Without a doubt, this is the best steak restaurant on the Island, we have been to most of the upscale restaurants here and we rate this the best. If you want terrific food, great service, and a delightful ambiance, try this restaurant, you won't be disappointed!!!“

“Had the pleasure of choosing Tara Inn for lunch today, every establishment can learn a lesson from the customer service that my friend and I experienced. Upon walking in we were greeted by Peter, Tara’s husband and son-in-law of the founder who named the bar for his daughter 47 years ago. We told him it was our first visit and he offered us seats and welcomed us. The regulars at the bar guided us through the menu and we each had a burger with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles for $1 per burger expecting very small burgers we were surprised to find them standard sized and deliciously prepared to medium. My friend had the fried shrimp and I had a $13 steamed lobster! Excellent! They offer daily specials and one of the gentleman at the bar told me their steaks are very good. Every staff person went out of their way to make us feel at home. A charismatic women came out from the back and introduced herself as Tara she thanked us for choosing to lunch there. Why can’t other places realize the importance of making a first time patron feel welcome. I
Had a great afternoon enjoying the excellent variety of beers that they provide on tap. The charming decor has probably changed little since the ‘70s and that adds to the vibe. If you want to go to the friendliest bar on Long Island, head over to Tara Inn.“

“Picked up Three pies two hero’s the price is great. we ordered three different types deep dish. Thin. Crust and regular pie with meatballs five stars the meat balls really made the pie.“

“The atmosphere was great, food was amazing. But the icing on the cake was the staff we had Torrie as our professional service person and her support staff were unbelievable she was on point with everything my wife and I want and had great suggestions on we may like she hit it out of the park. Thank you.“

“Wonderful place and great service!! Highly recommend it. Beautiful outdoor seating area as well. BYOB.“

“We had the best waiter which added to the experience. His recommendations were spot on. We were celebrating my sister's birthday. Had two different versions of filet mignon, the Wagyu and the Double Ranch. Both excellent. Spinach, mushrooms and brussel sprouts as sides. Great, but know the Brussels have a kick! The entire service staff are top notch. I recommend going. Pricey, but delicious.“

“Very satisfied with my dinner here. High quality fish and amazing service. Food was top tied. Very good experience, highly recommend this restaurant.“

“When it came to choosing a venue for our wedding celebration, we were looking for a fun, laid-back space with amazing food/cocktails. Bayberry was the perfect choice for us. From the start, Melissa made the planning process seamless and genuinely enjoyable. The entire staff was beyond attentive, and our guests raved about the food (mini lobster rolls 🙌🙌). Thanks Bayberry for the best day 🩵🩵“

“Everything ordered was delicious. We were not rushed; our server was excellent. The food was perfect and serving sizes large. We were there to celebrate birthdays, and they even gifted a small bottle of prosecco. We plan on returning soon and have told family/friends about our dinner. It is a wonderful, homey restaurant and well worth it.“

“It was my first time there. My parents have been there before and suggested we stop for a bite! We tried about five different slices! OMG....the deep dish with pepperoni was AMAZING!! I decided to order a whole tray and take it home! We stopped by around 2:30. They didn't have any table service, so you ordered and brought it to your table. We didn't wait long for our food. The service was friendly. We will be back!! YUMMMMM“

“Freshest seafood ever! After 30 years I finally know what it’s like to buy fresh seafood!!!“

“Ordered in and got two avocado bowls. The portions were great and the food was very flavorful. Highly recommend the steak and chicken combo on their avocado bowls. Will definitely be back“

“Servicio excelente, delicioso sabor de la comida“

“I have severe allergies and my nephew suggested Claws. I have to say Chris and Frank were excellent in educating me and helping me and going out of their way for me. Their seafood is fresh and delicious. I actually drive further to go to them and pass other seafood stores on my way, but they are definitely worth a trip. All of the staff is accommodating, knowledgeable, friendly, and respectful.“

“Went to Grumpy Jack's to celebrate my granddaughter's H.S. graduation. We were a table of 22, seated upstairs. Our waitress, Joelle, was amazing. She was working the entire restaurant. The downstairs and our group upstairs. She was very pleasant, professional, and did a great job handling everything herself. The food was so good. There are so many food options on the menu, it caters to everyone's tastes. Definitely recommend going there and we will definitely go back. Looking forward to it!!“

“My husband and I have been eating here pretty much once a week for almost 20 years. We usually get take out and create our own in home date night. By far the freshest and most delicious sushi we’ve ever had. Period. They keep the menu very clean, as opposed to other places we’ve tried where everything is caked in sauce and all just taste the same. You will not be disappointed.
Favorites: Alan roll, Peter roll (as for extra sauce on the side), Cooper roll (not on the menu but was on their old menu. You can still ask for it) and the deep impact.“
