“If you are on the island anywhere, make a reservation at Sand Castle. Chef Noelle Grant is a magician with textures and flavors and her staff is attentive and respectful. The view is stellar. Every meal is a highlight of our annual vacation. Not to be missed!“

“The most delicious Mexican food I have eaten on Long I since I moved to New York from California 40 years ago!!It is fresh, inventive, well-prepared and nicely presented and divine. This is not your run of the mill rice and beans tacqueria that everyone on Long Island settles for. This is real authentic Mexican, the way it should be.My friend and I ordered margaritas which were perfectly bright, refreshing and served the way they're supposed to be served.The tortilla chips were fresh and the salsa had just the right amount of zing.We ordered the Empanada Mariscos appetizer, a seafood empanada appetizer which was very fresh and delicious.My friend ordered the Enchiladas Campenchano, which looked so delicious, I asked to taste the sauce. She wasn't as familiar with Mexican food. But she absolutely loved it and can't wait to come back. Amazing. Guess what I am ordering on my next visit?!I ordered the mole enchiladas. Can I say OMG!!! Rich, complex, and wonderfully silky and excellent, the mole was perfectly prepared and presented, as it should be, on corn tortillas filled with tender, juicy chicken. The Mexican chocolate in the sauce absolutely sang. Incredible. I had goosebumps!! It tasted like more.Since we were celebrating a birthday we ordered Coffe Flan!! Melt in your mouth, indescribably rich and delicious!!! It was light and smooth with just the perfect amount of coffee flavor. Succulent. The staff surprised my friend with a generous piece of tres leches with a candle on it, and they sang happy birthday to her. She was thrilled.Summary: The ambiance is bright and festive. The service is attentive and warm. The cuisine (yes, cuisine) was incredibleTlhe prices, for this level and quality, were just right and worth every penny.Bottom line: We cannot wait to go back.By the way, they also serve brunch!!“

“Had a great experience when my family and I were there the food was exceptional and our waitress autumn was so attentive friendly and helpful when suggesting drinks specials and appetizers! Thanks autumn for a great experience: we will return again soon!!“

“Amazing food, amazing drinks. The pre-fix price is phenomenal, and it has a luxurious feel to it while keeping it somewhat casual.This place looks horrible from the outside but I’m so happy to give it a chance. Perfection!This is my go-to place for date night, the crab salad is amazing. The steak is perfectly seasoned/charred.“

“Went for a quick Tuesday lunch and ran into a Taco Tuesday Special! ? Ended up getting a 3 taco mix and match of Short Rib, Jerk Chicken and a Shrimp tacos. They were AMAZING! From the meats to the toppings and even the tortilla itself all where delicious. Not too big and def not undersized. It's been awhile since I've been but will be returning regularly for these tasty Tacos. Everything from price to taste was spot on, keep up the Excellent work Rhum!“

“I was brought here for my birthday highly recoommended fantastic.Will be back“

“Once you go to orto, you’ll keep coming back. From the bread pairings, the four course prefix.. everything tastes fresh and absolutely amazing. You can taste the care they put into their food. I also love how the menu is constantly changing with what is fresh during each season. Orto has become my favorite restaurant. Never change! Thank you.“

“Simply put, this cozy, yet city-like seafood joint, never ever disappoints.Went last night with my wife for a date night, parked in rear lot no problems. We have frequented this joint over the years, both sit down and take-out (getting babysitters can be tough sometimes) and the owner obviously knows how to run a respectable and vibrant establishment. We like to either sit at the bar or the hi-tops behind it.As soon as we walk in, our eyes immediately move to the chalkboard with all the oyster selections. Last night featured around 7 oyster varieties from Long Island to PEIs, Pebble Beach, Massachusetts etc. We always like to ask our server (Rebecca was the absolute best), which ones stand out and she stated the Pink Moons. We proceeded to order two dozen total, sprinkling in all the varieties. It is heaven on earth here and when they deliver your trays, the convo immediately goes to whether it’s Mignonette or tartar and how much of a lemon squeeze. The absolute best. I told her if ‘Catch’ ever holds an Oyster eating competition , I want to enter…..and win!Our drinks were done to perfection. Filthy martini done perfect (stuffed olives amazing) for wife and Margs for me. We made sure to compliment the bartender.We shared the Soft Shell Crab sandwich for our entree. The taste brings us back to our Italian heritage growing up as kids. They even sprinkled bacon bits to go along w the regulars. Did not affect the taste one bit. Over the years we’ve had their soups, apps, fish dishes etc and I’m telling you, we eat all types of seafood and this place does it right.We highly recommend popping in here. Service is great, atmosphere right, and food/drinks made to perfection.Parking: 2-hour parking in rear“

“Had dinner last night with a friend, food was excellent and the Fall sangria even better!“

“We booked my sister's surprise 30th Birthday at the Tap Room in Patchogue and had the BEST experience! Both bartenders were so kind and accommodating the entire time! Also, booking was a breeze! I was in great communication with the Event Coordinators throughout the entire process prior to the party. They were always prompt in answering questions and super friendly. Everyone at the party loved the food (we ordered a few trays of apps) and did the open bar package. The night couldn't have gone any better!“

“My boyfriend and I love Buttermilk’s! It’s one of our absolute favorite date spots. Perfect for breakfast or lunch! Extensive menu of food and drinks with a lot of creative specials! There’s usually a wait when we go, but we never wait as long as they tell us we might have to. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff is friendly, and the food is AWESOME! I never write reviews for places but Buttermilk’s deserved the A+ review!“

“Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to allergies restrictions. Everything was cooked to perfection.Parking: Plenty of parkingKid-friendliness: Several tables had kids the servers were very friendly. Everyone that came to the diner seemed to be happy to be there. They seemed like they frequent this place.“

“The sushi here is top notch and the service is very friendly. Even when they are busy they take the time to make sure everyone is being attended to. The Farmingville Roll is delicious along with all the other rolls we ordered. Would definitely recommend giving them a try, whether it is for date night or takeout.“

“My sister wanted to try JC’s restaurant after getting recommended by it by a coworker at first we were skeptical because of the area it was in but it turned out really good. It definitely exceeded my expectations. I got the steamed clams with garlic butter, jalapeños, celery and onion with some bread (you could add spaghetti to it) it was honestly the best steamed clams I ever had I would definitely get it again. My sister got a burger medium with a side of Mac and cheese the burger was really good, not too greasy really tasty cooked medium. We got dessert too, we got banana cheese cake and churros. The banana cake was okay it tasted like cheese cake more than it did banana. The churros was so good it was crispy but not crunchy and hard it was just the perfect amount of cinnamon not over powering just right with a scoop of ice cream and whipped cream it made the dessert prefect and is the best churros I’ve ever had coming from a person who always get churros as dessert wherever I go. Price wise it’s fair the match the food. And is definitely worth it. Custom service was really nice and attentive. All in all I would 100% recommend this place!“

“This was our first time trying this restaurant. Everything we ordered was delicious. We ordered pizza, baked pasta dishes as well as some Mexican items. Everything was perfect! The people that work add this beautiful clean pizzeria were all very courteous and kind. I felt the price for everything we got wasa little less than what we've paid at other local places.We look forward to going back again very soon as there were so many other nice things to try.“

“I haven't been to Jimmy's in a while. My breakfast was exactly the same as it was the last time I was there. I used to eat there almost every weekend.The food is cooked perfectly every single time. I have never once had something I did not like. Always a warm feeling when you dine at Jimmy's!!“

“I had dined at Stella Trattoria only once before, at Christmastime 2022. I can’t for the life of me figure out why I didn’t get back there sooner. This restaurant is spacious, well appointed, and comfortable. We were seated immediately upon arrival, & had drinks in less than 5 minutes. Our waitress, Julie, was the best. The food was nothing short of wonderful! It arrived at the table hot, in very generous portions, and was absolutely delicious! When I took out my “doggie bag” to enjoy a second dinner, I found Julie had marked all our containers making it easy to identify the contents, as well as making sure everything came home, sauce and all! Each one of our party of four thoroughly enjoyed their dinner. Stella Trattoria is FINE DINING.“

“Love this place! Service is polite and quick. Sushi is amazing and the rolls are always fresh. They have so many delicious rolls to choose from. I highly recommend the spicy Kani roll, salmon avocado, snow mountain, and golden shrimp tempura. And tasty house hot sake.“

“It was such a wonderful experience. Our server was so kind and answered any questions we had and gave us great recommendation. My husband and i left with a happy and full stomach and we cant wait to come back! The food is so amazing and seasoned so perfectly. Im craving it again writing about it!!!PS dont skip on the sigara borek!!!!All the meat except the gyro is halal.Dietary restrictions: Halal meats availableWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp available outside with lots of floor space inside the restaurant“

“We had the veal parmesan, chicken parmesan and a brick oven pizza with the works and it was very, very good. The atmosphere is also nice, the owner came around and checked on us and even bought us limoncello as a cordial! The service is also very good and attentive. Highly recommended.“

“I was in the area and needed to kill time. I've been on a sushi kick lately, so this is where I found myself. I started with the fire ball. It had a layer of salmon, crab, avocado and eel, and then topped with sauce. It was very flavorful and fresh. For my sushi rolls I had a spicy salmon roll and a spicy tuna roll. Spice was on point. Everything was very fresh and delicious. It is small inside, but they do have some tables. Service was excellent. My water was never empty as it was constantly refilled. I also requested no "crunch" in my sushi rolls. I was then informed the fire hall had crunch. They easily accommodated me and didn't put "crunch" in anything. I'd definitely be back!“

“If i could give 10 stars i would. Best pizza place. I don’t know what it is but it’s just so much better than the other pizza places. Regular pie & their pizza pops are out of this world. Been going here for years and has never disappointed.UPDATE A YEAR LATER:still the best lolTheir Buffalo chicken pop is everything.My only suggestion is because they’re so good they get busy on the weekends so order a little extra ahead!Pizza 10/10Zeppolis 10/10Pizza pops 10/10Hero’s 10/10“

“This place is a gem. Food is fantastic, portions are large, service is great. It's the closest thing to a home cooked meal you'll get at a restaurant. Try the Alfredo sauces and the soups, they're especially good but honestly everything I've ever had there is tasty.“

“I've spent over a decade working in hospitality at the corporate level, so I have a deep understanding of operations, including food costs, labor costs, and overhead. Running a restaurant is not a walk in the park.Bird & Bao absolutely nails it. The ingredients are fresh, and the cleanliness is impeccable – you could eat off the dining room floors. The kitchen's stainless steel appliances shine so brightly that guests can see their reflections in the window from afar. The food is perfectly prepared with clean plating and a neat presentation.The flavors are exceptional. You can taste every ingredient, and there's a delightful balance with unexpected pops of flavor that introduce your palate to new experiences.In a town like Patchogue, which is filled with restaurants, Bird & Bao is a hidden gem that is seriously underrated.The picture I attached doesn't do it justice. Run, don't walk Bird & Bao.“

“I’ve been going here for over 10 years and always enjoyed my experience. The food is consistently getting better. Combine that with the atmosphere and you can’t lose. This is an old charming building which smartly has no tv sets, great atmosphere, candles on the table, table cloths, etc. I think you will love it.“

“All I can say is AY DIOS MIOOOO!!WOW this brought me back to my island. The alcapurria was outstanding, empanadas perfections, sorrullos delicious, rice and beans yummy! Everything tasted like it was made with love. I am so happy I found a restaurant that really depicts what our islands flavor is made of.Ive been going to island empanada for many years, and decided to give this place a try and wow blew them right out the water! Will definitely order again???“

“Great place! Fun atmosphere friendly people. Bobby has a made this brewery a great hangout. Beer is very good! Yesterday celebrated their 7th anniversary, lots of fun, loved the Butter me Banana . Definitely when in Port Jeff check this out. Cheers to 7 plus more years!“

“One of the best take out Chinese restaurants! Food always taste fresh. They’re very efficient when it comes down to the wait time. Never worried about having cold food cause that will not happen. Everyone provides the top notch services and this place is very accommodating. Pricing is reasonable for the portion of food you’ll get. Highly recommended. Bonus: boneless spareribs with pork fried rice is always the favorite food to get“

“The food was very good and fresh!!! . They gave a good amount of food for the money. Was so affordable. Customer service was amazing and they were very quick with preparation. I came one day and hurried and came the next day for lunch then came back in 10 minutes later to get my brother some food! I give this place a 5 star!!“

“Go there… this place is great! Hey, guess what… it’s a Diner!Great food… welcoming and friendly staff and wait til you taste the food…Now… a lot of people go through their doors and they are very busy… but that’s what makes ‘em great! The cacaphony of happy people, and a professional team dazzling you with their smiles!Sure… try the rest…BUT, THEN GO TO THE BEST!Sorry to hear about the “grumpy pusses” out there but don’t believe em…“

“It’s Tuesday night I just left there speaking to Frank. My name is Thomas Kos. I’ve said this numerous times I believe since I moved to this area there’s no sense of even going anywhere else I’m a big pizza person the Sicilian in the regular or some of the best I’ve ever had the chicken bacon ranch is probably the best slice of pizza I ever had in my 56 years. The people are kind the workers are great it’s just no need to go anywhere else. Great deal on Tuesday and the slices are always huge, I’m shocked sometimes the size of a slice. Guys thank you for everything. Always great going in there.“

“First time here for a late lunch. Our server was excellent and the food ordered was very good. Onion rings were especially good. Food came out timely. Side salads are a nice size. Good basic pub food with reasonable prices and good sized portions. We'll be back.“

“The service was outstanding. Most everyone 3 ot of 4 enjoyed their meal, Chicken Pot Pie, Short Ribs, Steak Sandwich, Crab Cake Sandwich. My brother wasn't entirely happy with Crab Cake Sandwich. Too much bread not enough crab. The wings were definitely Buffalo, I enjoyed, others thought to much heat. More for me! We had a very good time altogether, I will definitely be back.“

“Hı we had great ıftar thanks for good food“

“Love Furcis.The food is great, price isn’t bad, and the people who work here are amazing.Jim, the guy who usually is at the counter, is the nicest person you’ll ever meet.So personable. He greets you with a smile every time.Highly recommend this pizzeria to anyone.“

“delicious food i would highly recommend and will definitely come back.Every dish we tried was a masterpiece of flavors and textures, showcasing the chef's impeccable skill and dedication to authenticity. From the delicate dumplings to the fiery Szechuan specialties, each bite transported us to the bustling streets of Beijing or the tranquil tea gardens of Hangzhou.The attention to detail extends beyond the cuisine to the presentation, with each dish artfully arranged to please both the eyes and the palate.“

“Since I was little Reese's has always been a Patchogue landmark in my opinion. As an adult I love its ol' pub feel, nostalgic. No fancy drinks or IPA beer selection. Just true honest Pub food and spirits! Always has remained true throughout the enormous face-lift the town has gone through and that's what make this place special. Not to mention their Burgers are Delicious and Coleslaw is top notch. True Patchogue Treasure!“

“The cheese pizza is always good, the knots here are unique bowtie shaped dough, always soft and oily and my overall favorite knots on long Island. I've yet to meet a staff member that I didn't think was excellent and personable. Branchinelli's is my miller place go-to pizzeria.“

“Today had to get my car inspected at Mazda 112, and the receptionist told me about this bakery and I have no regrets!! I ordered the plain roll with butter and another item (I can't recall the name). The lady that helped me was very kind and attentive. I will be back! Strongly recommend “

“I always come here for some steak when I don’t feel like cooking at home and the quality is great every single time. The meal preps are phenomenal also, I usually cook at home so I don’t get them much but whenever I don’t this is the first place I go. I try to stay away from processed fast food and stick to Whole Foods that I know are cooked with peoples health in mind. Keep it up!“

“Good food. Good service. A nice comfy, cozy atmosphere. The only reason for 4 stars is missing handicapped aids in the restroom. At the very least, please add a handrail next to the very low toilet to assist those needing it to help them sit so far down &/or get back up. Much appreciated.“

“From Christmas week, 12/26.I'm a bit behind with Burger reviewsThis burger was awesome.I have been here before, last September, but did not post a review here about itI ordered it my usual medium rare, and they cooked it exactly the way I liked it.The meat blend they used is spectacular....It really hit my tastebuds the right way.The bun was fresh, a bit soft, but held up well against the juicy burger..The price was right , $14.50 WITH bacon and cheese.The fries were crispy as I like them.My dining partner had the French Onion Soup, as it was one of the Specials. She said it was up there with one of the best she's had in a while.The service was great!!! Our waitress was quick, professional, upbeat, and funnyIt was busy, as they have a few popular specials on Tuesdays, one being a $22 porterhouse.. The table next to us both ordered it, and they said they loved it.Thanks MerissaThey have their own parking lot, but it fills up quick..There is also street parking. I've never had a problem thereThis burger is in my Top Tier , Top 5 territory..Which is getting very crowded.I'm going to have to budge my stubbornness thinking I can decide the 5 best, when there are truly numerous "TopTier" burgers on Long Island, and on my Radar Screen; which is all of Suffolk County, and an occasional foray into the 516 territory.Cavanaughs, Blue Point“

“I just have to say this place is amazing,everything so far I've gotten has just been delish and the prices are just amazing, you truly get what you pay for,not like all they other restaurants that make prices higher and the quality of food definitely doesn't match,matches both quality and quantity. This place reminds me of the pizzeria I had as a kid. So good!,and the people that work that are just as nice.“

“Great spot for a family dinner or out with friends. Cool vibe and good service. As a Mount Sinai native I’m always happy to see this historic spot thriving!Vegetarian options: Nothing inventive but what we are used to and they do it well: salads, pasta primavera.“

“First time ordering food from here and we will definitely be back. Clean dining area, very friendly staff and DELICIOUS food. We had the chicken tenders, onion rings, chopped cheese hero, macaroni and cheese and Cheddar Chicken sandwich. Everything was cooked and presented perfectly. We even had leftovers to take home. DEFINITELY recommend ordering from here.“

“Amazing amazing amazing! Me and my wife come here for special occasions, our anniversary, her 40th birthday, and it is worth every single penny and then even more! The food is absolutely to die for, every bite is balanced and seasoned to absolute perfection. We've never been to a place that's done it more right than La Plage.Mufasa was not only an incredibly attentive, kind and knowledgeable waiter, he was a somerlier to boot! Can't wait to come back!“

“I usually don't give out 5 star reviews, but when I do, it means its really good. So we ordered Hibachi, and we met this family, which for this we'll call Family A, we managed to bond with them a little bit.Kid-friendliness: They are really Kid friendly, the cooks usually play this thing were they cut up some zucchini, and they play this game, where you have to get the part of the zucchini into your mouth, they do this with everyone“

“Love this location, it’s so clean. Been there several times! The host Jesse is nice and friendly. Our go-to servers, Alyssa C and Rob A, are attentive, fun and sweet. They give us the best service. The manager Jill is also very sweet!I definitely recommend this location!“

“The food was very good The srvice was very good Me and my boyfriend are Coming back“

“A really pleasant experience, the people who work there are always so happy to accommodate you, both dine in or take out is always the same, caring and friendly atmosphere.Dietary restrictions: They can help with your diet, with a variety of different types of fish and other seafood. The best thing about this store is they cook right there on the premises, I love their fried oysters and ceviche with shrimp and fresh vegetables is so refreshing.Parking: Parking is in the back of the facility. Not wheelchair accessible.“
