“What a lovely atmosphere! Between the velvet sofas and antique coffee tables, such a darling place to unwind and relax. The tiramisu was amazing! Highly recommend!“

“I can honestly say BrainFood Palace lives up to the hype. I received over 100 messages from people telling me I had to check this place out, and they weren’t lying. From the first sip, I knew why everyone was raving about it.

The smoothies are thick, creamy, and full of real fruit. No shortcuts, no watered-down flavor. They actually keep you full and energized, which is rare to find. The fresh juices are just as impressive: light, refreshing, and so clean-tasting that you know you’re getting the real deal.

Beyond the drinks, the vibe of the place makes it even better. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and you can tell they take pride in what they’re serving. It’s the type of spot where you feel good the moment you walk in, and even better when you leave with something fresh in hand.

I totally understand why so many people told me to try it. BrainFood Palace is easily a 5/5. A must-visit if you love smoothies, juices, or just want something healthy and delicious. OH LAWDD!“

“The prices of eggs have come down in half, but in order of three eggs over easy bacon, home prize rye toast and coffee
$18.75... Very nice people, the Greeks. Any waitresses been going there for 20 plus years?
I just wonder if tariffs are normalized in the price of eggs go down. Will this dish be somewhere around $12.75??“

“I recently visited the McDonald's located in West Hempstead, across from Halls Pond Park, and had a fantastic experience. From the outstanding service to the friendly staff, my visit left a positive impression on me. One of the highlights of my visit was the wonderful chat I had with two standout employees, Virginia and Mike. They were not only attentive and efficient but also engaged in friendly conversation, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. Their dedication to providing great service was evident throughout my visit. While I hadn't tried a Big Mac in a long time, I decided to indulge in some of my favorite junk food before starting my upcoming diet and intense 75 Hard workout program. The Big Mac I ordered was prepared to perfection, reminding me of the classic taste that made it an iconic menu item. It was a delicious treat that satisfied my cravings. The McDonald's restaurant itself was clean, modern, and had a classy ambiance. The attention to cleanliness and the well-maintained environment further enhanced my dining experience. The atmosphere was welcoming, making it a comfortable place to enjoy my meal. Based on my visit to this McDonald's location, I would definitely recommend it to others. The exceptional service provided by Virginia and Mike, along with the tasty food and pleasant ambiance, contributed to a positive overall experience. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or a place to enjoy some classic fast food favorites, this McDonald's in West Hempstead is a great choice. #McDonaldsWestHempstead“

“I love this place. I wish I could frequent it more often but i moved out of that part of the island.“

“Ive been coming to Annie’s for over a year and love it so much! Their coffee is top tier! I usually get a latte or their draft La Colombe cold brew. It’s always made perfect they also have a variety of pastries and bagels. I’m a big dog lover and have a doodle of my own and this place is super cute because they have a separated dog friendly back area which you can bring your dog to socialize with others and enjoy your coffee.“

“I just found this gem recently and have been hooked! The staff is so friendly and the coffee is amazing! I travel there about 15-20 minutes out of my way just to get my coffee, that’s how great it is! Can’t recommend Buzz’d enough!!!“

“Just have to give a quick shoutout to Hard Bean on Merrick Ave. Victor and his wife Elise opened 10 days ago just north of the train station. My fiancé and I were talking to the owners and learned that opening a coffee shop was Victor’s dream. After working at his previous career for almost 30 years, he retired and opened this place. It’s charming inside and the coffee is delicious and less expensive than *$s. They are literally a mom and pop shop and after spending some time there I wanted to post to support and recommend Hard Bean to all the locals.“

“Totally enjoyed everything about this place. Stopped in to take my little sister out for cheesecake, was nicely greeted and served. Cheesecake was amazing!! Chai tea also was wonderful. Can’t wait to come back and try more!“

“Truly the best spot in Long Island for bubble tea. Superior drinks and customer service. Don't sleep on the coffee either!“

“Oh my goshh the employees are so nice. Like extremely friendly and chatty I love it. So many vegan options and they also care to help me find out if something is vegan or not. Snacks and drinks are yummy and well made. The atmosphere is so cute and cozy and nice. Good crowd too, I always like going to a cafe and seeing people quietly studying or doing work or chatting at a good volume, stuff like that. It feels very community to me. Love it“

“Capri is absolutely fantastic! The food is amazing, the service is warm and attentive, and everything came out so quickly.

We started with the fish tacos, mozzarella sticks, and tuna tartare—each one was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. For the main, we had the rigatoni pasta, cooked perfectly and full of rich flavor. I also got the strawberry iced tea, which was refreshing, delicious, and a true 10/10!

Overall, Capri is a true gem. Delicious food, awesome service, and such a pleasant dining experience. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!“

“This place is straight out of a film! step inside and you’re transported. The ambiance is extraordinary, like a scene from a classic movie, with soft, cinematic background music that wraps around you like a warm hug. The staff are genuinely kind and attentive, and the host? An absolute gem—welcoming, warm, and makes you feel like a regular from day one.

What sets this place apart is how it feels ahead of its time while being steeped in history. Everywhere you look, there are stunning, authentic antiques—each piece telling a story. The attention to detail is top-notch, from the decor to the service to the perfectly crafted drinks and dishes.
I’ve never experienced a café this special. It’s not just a place to eat—it’s an experience. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Great service and mega delicious coffee and pastries 👌 Highly recommendable!“

“Homey’s Bistro is the place to go to in Glen Head. Across from the LIRR Parking is easy. They serve breakfast, amazing lunch and NOT TO FORGET, the donuts 🍩 and cinnamon rolls, which are massive. Three try one of their amazing iced espresso. They also have beer from a local distributor and started last week. They’re doing wine and crate trays on the evenings of Friday and Saturday. i’ll be going this Friday tomorrow to check that one out. I will give this place five stars friendly. They have their own pastry chef on staff, which makes everything fresh daily. Check it out.“

“Debbie is the greatest Best place ever Best food!“

“great coffee. Michele is a warm and gracious barista.“

“I’ve been to every local coffee shop you could think of within the radius of Oceanside to Long Beach. Without doubt this is THE best local coffee shop in the area. Small, quaint little hole in the wall type of shop next to the Oceanside train station that puts out THE best coffee and baked goods. The Pistachio Tiramisu was a total knock out, so so so so good. The owner Vish has to be one of the nicest people I’ve met as well. A hands on owner you can find behind the counter whipping up coffees or out on the patio engaging with his guests. Very nice spot I highly recommend coming here. Their cold brew is the best.“

“Thank you for the most delicious bday cake on 4/13/25!“

“Bright and early in the morning Nyla was a ray of sunshine on this gloomy day. She took her time explaining the menu options. Walked us thru the process. Put so much love into our donuts and treated us like long time friends. Felt like hanging out in your best friend’s kitchen instead of picking up donuts at a shop. I will definitely be back!!“

“its fast and reasonably priced rhe honefries are the best! Kevin is a nice guy ro talk to as well have him take your picture and it gets put up on the wall.“

“Great place for crazy cookie flavors, a little pricey and other than the everyday flavors the specialty flavors are more expensive. If you join their club you get a FREE cookie for your bday but only the daily flavors, specialty ones are not included and they should be, after all if it's your bday you should be able to pick what you like. Even though cookies are pricey they can be worth the try because I feel this is not a daily place but a nice treat once in a while.“

“The absolute best on Long Island. Worth the trip to Oceanside. They never disappoint. Everything /Egg. Are my favorites.“

“Best tea you will ever try 😋 and the most amazing staff“

“We had such a delightful brunch this morning. The service and food were both fabulous!“

“Best tea you will ever try 😋 and the most amazing staff“

“It was a wonderful experience , considering it is my first time. We had to wait a few minutes to get our table for 4 but that’s okay! The employees were super nice and went out of their way to pull and extra table for us. I loved the authentic atmosphere. The lighting, decor, and the overall feeling of the restaurant was great! And amazing food. My family loved what we ordered and the matcha cheesecake for dessert was so good! Compliments to the chef! I could definitely see myself coming back here again, whether alone or with family or friends. Well done, Nippon Cha!“

“I was referred to NY SPINE CARE by my Neurologist and my PCP almost 4 years ago as I was in utter agony for 24/7 and didn't know where to turn to receive help and relief from the perpetual pain I was experiencing ad nausea. I was unable to get out of bed, sit up for any length of time and when I tried to get up, this feat was like climbing Mt. Everest for me. All seemed lost. The life I lived was completely negated and I was truly lost and at the end of my rope UNTIL I began receiving treatments from Dr. Han. My life came back in increments and my capabilities were back!!! I couldn't believe how much better I was feeling and functioning. I hope to never have to not be able to relinquish my treatments. Dr. Han is outstanding and I cannot sing his accolades enough. Choosing NY SPINE CARE was one of the best health decisions I have made.
I also want to acknolodge how wonderful Sunny, Nestor, Alfie and the entire staff is for their help, patience, assistance, knowledge, care and support during every procedure

With my eternal gratitude, appreciation and thanks!!!“

“Chip city is insane !! They are such a caring company to donate to the NYC Ronald McDonald house. I was honored to have tasted a cookie (or 2) and was blown away. Absolutely amazing love for their community. Thank you Chip City !“

“Rothchilds never disappoints. We love all the food options, and drinks. The owner and staff couldn’t be more accommodating.“
