Kyuramen x TBAAR - Garden City 988 Franklin Ave, Garden City Ramen • $$
988 Franklin Ave, Garden City

“I love the interior of this shop. It is so exciting and stylish. I love the private stalls as well. The ramen was surprisingly good. We went there just to grab something between a soccer game and a violin lesson with my son. I did not expect much thinking this is another Chinese ramen place, but ramen here was surprisingly above my expectation. It is not special, but it tastes like a regular ramen in Japan. My son had the combination ramen (you can enjoy two different tastes), a bun, and a tea. He was satisfied as well. I will go back if I have a chance.”

Small Batch 630 Old Country Rd, Garden City American • $$$
630 Old Country Rd, Garden City

“Many restaurants could learn a thing or two from Small Batch. Wonderful experience. Not only was the food fresh, inventive and meticulously prepared, but the staff was just lovely. Everyone was warm, not snobby, and went above and beyond to make my sister's birthday brunch enjoyable for my family. The food focuses on spotlighting the local ingredients and isn't overly fancy. My favorites were the hot fried chicken sandwich, the deconstructed eggplant parm appetizer, and the spaghetti with tomato sauce off of the kids menu (could have used a touch of salt but I think they underseasoned on purpose because it's for kids). The only dish that was pretty underwhelming was the shrimp and grits, which was kind of bland. The decor is also so tasteful and I felt transported to a fancy farmhouse somewhere on the coast of Rhode Island or something. I'll definitely be back!”

“Drove by and saw the happy hour sign and decided to drop in immediately was greeted by the friendly host and decided to sit at the bar. The overall ambiance is beautiful. The bartenders were amazing, quick and personable. I enjoyed light conversation and the manager Moses came out to ensure guest were enjoying themselves. As a vegetarian I enjoyed the cheese empanadas they were flavorful. I’d highly recommend the mango Margarita my sister got a blend the bartender made her which was really good ! Overall 5/5”

SMOK-HAUS 7 12th St, Garden City Barbecue • $$
7 12th St, Garden City

“We three ate here today. Tony, visiting from Ireland, and I each had the 1/2 rack of ribs which we both agreed was excellant, fall off the bone good. I had as my 2 sides collard greens and corn. Both sides were very good, seemed to have a slight pickled flavor and went down easily. She had the pulled pork sandwich, which she found excellent to include the thin bread, and she had to have the bread pudding for dessert, which was topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, so we had to help her finish it as it was too big for one person! Definitely the best rib place for both ribs and sides, we look forward to returning. The interior may seem a bit small but in the good sunny sumertime they have outdoor seating for well over a hundred diners. There's plenty of free parking, it's all located in the area behind Fairchild's Funeral parlor. The service is friendly and timely. Do yourself a favor, if you like ribs, you'll like the SmokHaus.Parking: Huge free parking lot behind behind the restaurant”

“The fine dining experience was VERY good. The staff was very welcoming and attentive. My husband’s food was delicious (beet salad and salmon entree). I ordered the lobster bisque which was delicious. I ordered the doc fish entree which was recommended by our server. Unfortunately, the fish had no taste and the sauce made me nauseous. The kale was not edible at all. It was too chewy. Overall, spending time with my husband, in a very nice venue with a very nice vibe, made the experience well worth it.Parking: There’s ample parking, for free, if you don’t want to pay for valet parking.”

“First time at Plancha. What a gem! I had a lemondrop to start. A perfectly balanced drink. We ordered grilled shrimp. Had a panini that was a house special with mortadella. Yum. The octopus was tender served over butter beans. Brussel sprout salad was very nice. Pan con Jamon, so good. Dessert bread pudding and lemon chess pie was a wonderful way to end the meal. The staff is very nice and talented. Check out the menu before you go, as they have so much to offer. It is a great casual place with fantastic food in Long Island.”

“My family and I are frequent customers here. All of the staff are super friendly and personable. They even remember us whenever we walk in. They always attend to our needs and we can be needy at times with a fussy two year old. The food is always delicious and fresh. Atmosphere is perfection for mall dining. Honestly our favorite place to eat at RF Mall. Today they surprised my husband and I with a generous goody bag that was leftover from Valentine's Day. That was very kind of them and they didn't have to. They even put some cookies in there because they remembered we have a son at home. Thank you NM Cafe. We love coming to your restaurant and will always be back!”

The baked clams were decent but it just felt like it was missing something in the flavor and the Bronzino was a little bland. The lobster Mac and cheese was great and was a large portion. The menu is expansive and from the pics of their brunch food I definitely want to come back and try their brunch one of these weekends.”

Repeal Bar & Restaurant 55 New Hyde Park Rd, Garden City American • $$

“For people coming in the first time: there's two sections; the bar and the dining area. If you are going to dine in, make sure to go on the side where they have the benches/chairs not the one by the bar. We waited a while to get served because of this. Though staff was accommodating and helpful. The crowd/atmosphere was more of like mature, dive bar-ish. The food was good; not extremely tasty, it tastes homemade and delicious. The drinks were pretty good. Reminds me of a traditional pub in Ireland.”

BK Sweeney's Uptown Grille 636 Franklin Ave, Garden City Bar & Grill • $$
636 Franklin Ave, Garden City

“BK Sweeney's is a popular Long Island bar located in Garden City that offers classic American bar fare. During my recent visit, the 'BKS Angus Steakhouse Burger' stood out as a winner for me. It was perfectly cooked, though the fries were a bit bland. However, the service wasn't great - our waitress not only ignored us throughout the entire meal, but also forgot to bring out all three of our appetizers. When we raised it to her attention, she asked if we wanted to take them to-go...who would ever want to get charged and take them to-go? We ended up canceling them entirely. You might be curious about my 4-star rating for this restaurant. Despite this recent hiccup, my previous visits to BK Sweeney's were issue free. I believe it is not fair to penalize the entire business for the actions of one waitress. I'll definitely be returning soon to give it another go.”

Spuntino Wine Bar & Italian Tapas 1002 Old Country Rd, Garden City Wine Bar • $$
1002 Old Country Rd, Garden City

“I believe our servers name was Antonio. He was excellent! We had a few questions when ordering and he let us know that the mixed grill would take about 35-40 minutes. So we ordered that right away. There was four of us. We shared two pizzas. The one with fig and prosciutto was beyond delicious! Will definitely order again. I didn't try the other one, however it was pepperoni with hot honey, and our friends said it was very good. The mixed grilled was the perfect choice to sample a bunch of different meats. It was huge and a great value. There was lamb chops, sausage, steak, chicken thighs, and all cooked and seasoned perfectly. For sides we had the most amazing potatoes and brussels sprouts. We also shared eggplant meatballs, which were very tasty. Cocktails were to our liking, strong. My one friend who ordered wine. The manager Cathy came over to check in. She asked how the wine was and a moment later came back for my friend to try one she recommended. We were honestly blown away by the service. Cathy later came again to see how everything was and we happily told her excellent! I would honestly go back even if just for dessert. The fried little pieces of heaven in a bag with Nutella, caramel and chocolate sauce.... OMG! Oh course paired with an espresso martini. Overall wonderful experience and will certainly be back!”

“I've been here three times with three different groups of friends and they've all loved this place. I always get sushi however one person I went with didn't eat sushi, but he loved the General Tso's chicken. They have a great assortment and diversity of selections on their menu. Their sushi is very fresh, beautifully presented and melts in your mouth. There are plenty of cooked options as well for people who do not eat sushi. The ambience is nice with a smaller sized dining room, and the service is outstanding. It's nice because the servers are on top of your meal/order without being on top of your table. I highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to go back again.”

“My husband, my one year old son, and I always come here! It's always something special or on a whim. We love the fact we can dine here and have an experience with little to no issues. We love having Juanito as our server! He's kind, professional, friendly and always makes the best drinks. He has really shown his personality with us and we sincerely appreciate that! To my embarrassment , my one year old knocked his food off the table and Juanito understood! As a new mom, things like that have us feeling so apologetic!! But I am appreciative that he was not annoyed and he also shared his experiences. He is always making us feel welcomed and I am so happy to write this review to praise him and his work ethic. Thanks to Nordstrom for hiring a wonderful individual such as Juanito. 5 stars for food, ambiance and of course... the amazing service— always! The staff at the Grill should be very proud and happy to know they have represented themselves so well. I love sharing this recommendation to people. Thanks again and thank you so much to Juanito! Until next time .. Food: Calamari, Salad and Salmon, Halibut Drinks: Next Flight Out and of course the Apple Sangria!”
