50 Best Italian Restaurants near West Islip

“only complaint was how busy it was and I can totally understand why. everything was amazing steaks and italian food alike. I'm super picky about my food and I was shocked how great everything was. I live an hour away and am already planning my next visit back. my new favorite restaurant. highly recommend“

“Love the way it made me feel, it was classy made me feel old-school, neat and clean, made me feel like I was at home. The flavors of the food were different and extremely delicious. This is my First time in NY. I've always wanted to try authentic NY pizza, this was by far the greatest experience I could have ever had. We didn't expect the prices to be so affordable especially for the quality of food and taste. To top it off for being out of town and our first time here the hospitality was welcoming, just like family. My husband and I travel for work and we needed to have some time out the truck They were close to closing but told us to take our time. No rush and it made us feel like it was okay and that we weren't holding them from closing and to enjoy our food and rest our bones. It's hard to find this kind of quality in restaurants these days. It isn't about appearance it's all about the love and time to make such exquisite dishes“

“READ THIS
! My spouse and I only had 5 minutes before we needed too drive to the Ferry or we would miss it, but we were SOO hungry!
We were only looking for a gas station to get chips because of time constraints. When this lovely spot caught our eye with their pizza by the slice. Apon entering we were greeted by 2 fellas. I could be wrong but to me it seemed they maybe related, best guess was grandpa and grandson. They were warm welcoming and happy to even share a tasting of their own “boom boom” sauce. We ordered one sausage and one chicken parm Stromboli. They cut them in half and packed them warm with boom sauce and red sauce, and even some parm sprinkle cheese. We decided we would share so we can taste both. First up was the sausage. It was love at 1st bite for us BOTH! The perfectly crisp outside with a filling to dough ratio that was heavenly! The blend of peppers and cheese paired well with the sausage. The chicken parm is a Classic and did NOT let us down! Just like the sausage’s crispy dough & warm center, and perfectly cut, bite size portions of chicken! Although we had sauces, it was NOT needed for either of the items, but indeed we saved them to try at home. As my niece would say, this was definitely a “GREAT mistake for me”! We are delighted to have discovered this GEM and look forward to going again!
Due to driving and hunger, no photos were taken. I am not one to sit and write a review but this meal was worth my time and effort, I had to write it as soon as I sadly took my last bite!“

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the impeccable service and care your entire team provided during the recent funeral of my brother, Steven Blair.

I would especially like to commend Sean for the exceptional management of the logistics and preparation.

“Don’t listen to these bad reviews about this place. The pizza is delicious. Anyone who is giving bad reviews over politics doesn’t belong giving reviews at all. Reviewing This place is about Pizza, service how good the experience was and people should keep it that way. The last I checked, they weren’t asking you to vote when you came to pick up a pizza so please get over it.

The owner is very passionate about what he does. The people that work there are as friendly as can be. They make an excellent pizza. All the food is good Even the desserts, try the Saint Joseph’s !

And for the person that commented about the drive-through window. It’s actually been there for years and years because it was a hamburger place prior to Marcos Called Burger Haven, sort of like a drive-in now converted into a pizzeria so when the owner bought the place, what was he going to do seal the window? lol that would be a bad business move. It’s actually convenient for most people that want to pick up a pie. I am from Brooklyn and I know good pizza and his pizza in the area is one of the best at a reasonable price. He makes a good crust & if you’re feeling adventurous, Try the clam pie. It’s very very good.“

“I was in town for business for one day. We stumbled upon this place and instantly knew we had found a winner. The young ladies at the counter were warm and welcoming. They didn’t hesitate to make suggestions and help us decide. The Chicken Parm was one of the best I have ever had and the portions are huge. The pizza was amazing (highly suggest the buffalo chicken). If you are looking for a true small town restarting, this is your place. Thank you. I will definitely
Be back if given the chance.“

“Good food excellent and attentive service generous portions Thank you for a great dining experience“
