Really disappointing experience. Unfriendly waitress and really substandard escargot and sea bass. Would never go back to this place. Food really bad.

We always loved this restaurant and have gone out of our way to go here. But this time was a big disappointment. My fluke was overcooked and didn’t even taste fresh and I didn’t feel well that evening. My husband had osso bucco which was just okay and our adult son had the rigatoni which he did enjoy. The quality of the food was not even close to our past visit which had been many. And we were there for two birthday celebrations. I wonder if the former chef has gone to their new restaurant and sadly we will not be returning to this once special restaurant for us

Finally made it to this place!!! 💪🏻 I have heard rave reviews about this place and it has been on my list! We were spending the weekend out east and needed to head into Riverhead! I was thinking of a cool place for lunch and this place popped into my head! It’s in Wading River so a little bit of a ride but it did not disappoint! I didn’t realize but they actually have a lunch price fix menu which was AWESOME!!! My hubs and I split everything so we were able to try a few different dishes! First up was beef carpaccio salad and we got the mussels~ DELISH!!! For our main dish we had the branzino and the chicken! BOTH DELISH! We then ended with the included dessert which was fig ice cream and a fruit filled crepe! The lunch also had the option (hi~ right up my alley!!) of adding wine for $5 a glass for the first and the second just $10! You know I had both! The place is located across from the beach~ so it’s not on the beach and the front water view is blocked by parked cars in the parking lot but this place is a little hidden gem! Definitely recommend if you are in the area! The vibe is low key casual and the food was DELISH!!! 💖😍💖😍

Simply perfect! I definitely recommend checking this place out.
The French-American cuisine, complete with signature dishes, was superb! My favorite was Duck Leg Confit (Fresh Chive Risotto, Truffle Essence, Exotic Mushrooms). The dessert was also very enjoyable.
We will definitely come again. The staff members are incredibly kind and friendly, and I want to express my gratitude for making my birthday celebration so delightful and memorable.
I recommend making a reservation and getting there a bit early to take a walk on the beach.

We sat outside 😍. Eating outside is my preference. We had a reservation as it was a Saturday night. The place was very busy. Our neighboring table were regulars! We chatting w them a bit. Cocktails were the best! The food sooo good! Great date night spot! I want to go back! Staff was great!

Our family has eaten here many times over the past 20 years and I am saddened to see the decline. Our food lacked flavor and the portions have drastically decreased in size. The service was sub par and the staff thought nothing of arguing with one another throughout our entire meal. That coupled with the excessive amount of flies inside the restaurant made our meal annoying instead of enjoyable. We ordered coffee and it was brought out after we were finished eating our dessert. It was no longer wanted and we should not have been charged! It will be a while before we come back, if you come back? If this was our first visit, we would most certainly not return :(

Gabby has to go. She is a horrible person to have on your staff. Not only is she rude and cold on the phone, she is exactly the same way in person. Not only to us but to her colleagues which we overheard when she was ordering them around. Get rid of Gabby and you should have.a good chance. You don’t want someone like that on your staff. It will ruin any chance you have. Ignorant, inexperienced, incompetent, and miserable.

A charming spot close the the beach. Went with a friend who lives in the area. The Mussels were great and the beer salad was very nice. Relaxed atmosphere with good serve

Sat outside with friends and the scenery was beautiful. I got to try the lobster ravioli and mussels appetizer, and OMG the bread dipped in the mussels sauce is to die for. For my entree I had the pappardelle pasta which I found to be okay. The sauce was too runny in my opinion it felt like I was eating soup but the pappardelle itself was very tasty. I tried my friends rigatoni pasta and liked that one better so if you’re debating which one to order then get the rigatoni pasta. Their chocolate cake dessert is SO good 1000/10
Have been here hundreds of times over the last 25-30 years and I am saddened to see its decline. The food lacked flavor and portions have definitely decreased. The atmosphere is looking old an and need cleaning. The service was adequate, but not as friendly and personable. That may help with the amount of flies in the restaurant that can be very annoying. Also, I’m guessing the ac was not working because is was very warm and uncomfortable. It may be a while before we come back. Maybe next time will be a better experience.

We dined as a party of 4 on a busy Saturday night. The food was uniformly terrible. The "sweet" corn soup was tasteless, watered-down thin gruel. The "seared" sea scallops had no sear marks and were soggy and nearly raw. The ravioli wrappers were thick, chewy and tough. The filling was tasteless. The service was nonexistent. We were totally ignored. We never even got a chance to order additional glasses of wine. This time we vowed: "Never Again."

The restaurant was very well recommended, but average in reality. The building and room is quite charming and intimate without being crowded, which was nice. Service was decent. Our server was kind and gave good advice, but at times was absent. The food was just ok. Decent portions sizes but a tendency to load up on sweetened sauces in starters and mains. Probably not worth the $30-50 entree price tag. The desserts we had were really good.
