“Been eating at Applebee's all over Long Island for over 20 years. Definitely feels nostalgic eating here again, but I never felt compelled to leave a review until now.

Food is always amazing, definitely hits the spot. Late night half-off-apps, but we wanted to try some of their new items.

At the top, their new Bacon Cheeseburger Wonton Tacos were fantastic! I hope they stay on the menu.

Always wanted to try the O-M-Cheese Burger, and apparently all their burgers are cooked on a flat top. I prefer that vs grill, and the sizzling cheese plate definitely is a nice touch. Delicious!

Boneless wings are always good, a nice dependable standard. Love the Garlic Parm.

My all-time favorite, the Chicken Quesadilla. Still tastes the same as I remember as a teen.

Definitely don't skip this location, was super clean, food was great, and service was stellar. Big shoutout to Alex who exhibited excellent customer service the entire time. Management seems really tight there, will definitely come back.“

“Great place for the kids and family. My son had an amazing birthday 🥳 we love this place.“

“DELICIOUS food with wonderful, accommodating waitstaff. They always take my request to make the gnocchi with the hay & straw cream, mushroom snd truffle oil pasta sauce. I go here for birthdays celebrations to brunches as often as I can. Try their Malbec and flourless chocolate cake which is naturally gluten-free—in fact, their brunches have almost all gluten-free options. The coffee is smooth and just wonderful. The outdoor dining experience is as if you are at a party in Europe. They already see me often for 10 years—I love food and this gets my repeat business. Try it at least! See if it becomes a favorite of yours!“

“The food was great and being tthat it looked like they need more help. The server was great and very friendly“

“I'm always reluctant to go to this Applebee's because the service is usually so bad. But looks like a bunch a new servers were hired. Charlie came right over and asked for drinks, took our orders and everything went the way it's supposed to. Food was really good and the 2 for $25 deal was a good value.“

“I absolutely love the attention to detail, the care and love of food that these chefs prepare. Love the surprise of not knowing what you get. They work with dietary restrictions.“

“Food was absolutely fantastic tonight. Actually never had a bad meal here. Worth the price. Service was great too.“

“Exelente comida y Exelente servicio“

“Had a great experience here last night. The food was cooked perfectly. Enjoyed some of the best baked clams I’ve ever had. The drinks looked very creative as well. The skirt steak was tender and marinated in a delicious marinade. The service was helpful but it wasn’t a rushed experience by any means. The patio is dog friendly as well. I will be back!“

“Beautiful, fun spot with great food and cocktails!“

“Endless shrimp 🦐 🍤 $20 yum 😋“

“EXCELLENT FOOD & SERVICE!“

“We've had great experiences at Nu. It's a quiet spot, usually, and the food is really great. We always get filet mignon or their pork chop, which is fabulous. Their wine list is great, and the service is always top notch. I'm kind of a snob when it comes to service. I like to have great service but also be left alone, which is exactly what they do. The servers have always been attentive and professional. They know what to recommend and can advise you on the menu. I have to repeat. Their food is GREAT! although I do always order the filet mignon. It's the best .“

“Large portions and great food“

“Knicks crowd was great, servers were fantastic.“

“Chef Chelsea creates beautiful, delicious plates using only the best ingredients. If you miss Pentimento Restaurant you will Love Level Up Kitchen! Get ready for a culinary treat!“

“Last Wednesday I was at Davis vision works and we walk to the restaurant for lunch whem we get the we were standing up for almost 15 minutes waiting for someone to give us a table. finally whem someone come to us and without asking if we need a table rigth away he say is was 15 mint wait, me while the restaurant wasn't even packed it was a lot of table empty and even like that he was going to make us to wait more. really bad service and rude attention. we have money to pay it wasn't like we were asking for a free table. people are really racist at this place. I don't recommend“

“Great place and atmosphere“

“We went to Karvers with 30 people after a memorial service. Our waitress Rachel was friendly, exceptional, organized and very attentive. The food was a 10 out of 10. The quality, flavor and portions were perfect. You guys knocked it out of the park!!!“

“Oh my goodness, my family went to Billie’s for Easter Dinner last night! The food was out of this world. Everything we got was spot on from the appetizers to the dessert! The service was amazing, and it didn’t cost an arm and a leg to enjoy a night out. I’m looking forward to going back when the weather is a bit warmer and eating on their back deck. I consider myself a bit of a foodie and this place was top-notch! Definitely give it a try. Oh, and it wasn’t packed like every other establishment town Port!“

“Fantastic place, friendly staff, magnificent food, plenty of tv’s for sport events.“

“A small venue but the food was delicious. Tasty grilled cheese sandwiches, good burgers, and they serve many kinds of crepes for desert.“

“Recently celebrated our daughter’s 1st Birthday here. After researching many venues in the area we landed with the Grille. Jenn (the event coordinator) was extremely friendly, professional and informative from the moment I called her to inquire about the space. The venue is a dual space. You have the catering room as well as the bar area where there are pool tables and a dart board. Perfect for our guests in their 20s. The food and staff were amazing. I cannot rave enough about Amy, Jenn, Steve, Ernesto and Sabrina. They were all so helpful and accommodating during our event. Jenn was extremely attentive and made sure we had all our desires fulfilled, up until the morning of the party. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this establishment. Book them! You won’t regret it!“

“BBQ Wings were delicious, coconut shrimp were a sin to humanity. Mushy and horrible.

Most likely because we got it to-go and the sauce was already on it.

Great atmosphere though, will be back and stick to bar food.“

“The food was great, the price was fair and our waitress, Barbara, made us feel more than welcome, as she made sure we had everything we needed.“

“I went last night for my anniversary. My husband and I did the tasting menu with the wine pairing. Everything was delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly. I will definitely be back“

“Great food and Beer selection! Go with the #6 ! And the Darby wings 🤗“

“Wonderful place !!! Nyasia the best barmaid in the place !!!!“
