“I've been to a few Elegant Affairs events now, and every single one has featured gorgeous design and incredible food.Their staff are friendly, and the management is bent on making sure every last detail is perfect. They're that rare unicorn business that can consistently deliver NYC-quality catering to Long Island.“
“This place is fantastic!! The wings are perfectly cooked. The ribs are AMAZING! The brisket is cooked to perfection. This place is an absolute hidden gem, if you love BBQ and you live on Long Island you are missing out if you haven’t been here yet. Highly recommend!!“
“Made a reservation here for restaurant week. Apparently didn't need one. The place has its own parking lot with about a dozen spots. We entered the building which took us into the bar, which was bustling. The dining room was quaint, with some really nice booths and a fireplace that should have been lit. Our server was a good looking young man, pleasant, not overbearing with a sense of humor. We opted to include an additional appetizer of baked clams to our meal, along with the crab cake and winter salad, which I forgot to take photos of. My friend opted for the lamb chops while I had the branzino piccata. Yummy, although the menu never stated that the fish was served over a shrimp risotto. (I'm allergic to shrimp). Only 1 bone in the fish, so I was lucky. Our dessert consisted of tiramisu and rainbow cookie cheesecake. I was "fortunate" to get the last piece although not very cheesecake-y. All in all we had a nice dinner and will maybe return for another meal.“
“Open for lunch! Google maps said closed, (found out later, website had corrrct hours!) but we stopped by anyway thankfully. Beautiful lunch menu. Perfect French onion soup, sandwiches, etc. Excellent service because down to earth, real, friendly. Shall I continue? Totally recommend.“
“In doing an Aperol Spritz themed bridal shower for my daughter we rented the Aperol spritz tricycle from Dolce & Gelato. I started contacting Gino Parente the minute my daughter got engaged.? I’m an earlier planner. Gino was so responsive and so kind immediately. Nothing was a problem for him. He is unbelievable with communicating, I called him at least 15 times. ?. He takes the time out to speak to you as if you are his only customer. A truly professional man to work with . On the day of the shower the tricycle was decorated beautifully with fake flowers and the bar attendant Katherine was fantastic! My daughter and our guests had an absolute blast getting drinks from the cart and taking photos. So much fun! I’ll definitely be using Gino’s company Dolce & Gelato again! A truly wonderful experience working with him!“
“The moment I walked in, I knew this was exactly the place I wanted to spend the e eat day in my life in!March 8th, I had the honor of hosting my Quincenera in Jericho Terrace and everything down to the cocktail hour to the staffs patience and generosity made this night very special! (Shout out to Edgar?)“

“I recently had the pleasure of servicing an event at the Country Club venue. The event was very well organized and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The venue was beautiful, with plenty of space to accommodate our large group. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. Everyone had a great time, and I would highly recommend this venue for any event.“
“From my bride: Book this venue NOW. The Royalton Mansion is a hidden gem that is absolutely beautiful, the food is amazing, and the staff is so kind. We were blown away by EVERYTHING. Mike and Arturo have been amazing since the first day we stepped in the front door to tour the Royalton. They truly make you feel like family. Communication has been very clear and they made us feel right at home. From that first conversation, everything was about us. We were able to make the Royalton our dream wedding and they never said no to any idea or ask.All of our guests have said this is the best wedding they have ever been to. We have received tons of compliments on how beautiful the venue is, the variation and amount of food at cocktail hour, and how every single dinner came out hot and in a timely fashion. All of the staff was professional and cared so much. Arturo was amazing and even gave the groom his own collar stays when we realized he forgot them. Michelle (the bridal attendant) was phenomenal. She kept all 13 bridesmaids organized and fulfilled every need / ask while taking phenomenal care of the bride. She was always around taking care of everyone and was on her feet from 7 am - 11:30 pm. We couldn’t be more thankful for this incredible team. Our wedding night was everything we have dreamed of and more thanks to The Royalton.“
“This used to be called Gigi's many years ago and it is a very big catering hall. The place is decorated very elegantly and has a lot of beautiful chandeliers. The current owners are wonderful and take care of their customers and the parties/events perfectly! Definitely recommend ? ? ? ?“
“For me, consistency is a major factor when it comes to choosing where to eat. Gyrolicious is consistently serving up some of the best Greek food I've had outside of Astoria, and the staff is always very welcoming. The portions are very generous, and never lack in flavor. You can tell they really take pride in serving their customers and the quality of the food they put out. Absolutely recommend!“

“Olivia's food is amazing - delicious, healthy, fresh, and a HUGE helper for busy people. She is the consummate pro, and wonderfully attuned to the needs of her clients. Her meals are truly fabulous self-care and also make wonderful gifts. Cannot recommend her highly enough!“
“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“
“food and the atmosphere is amazing. Everybody was so welcoming and very open to satisfy me. I cant have spicy food and they hooked me up with food that helped me and was extremely enjoyable. Will most definitely start eating here more often and also come more for the vibes.“

“We got married 11/4/23 at Soundview and had such an amazing experience with Soundview. When beginning the venue search we knew we wanted a waterfront venue with an outdoor space for the ceremony and a suitable indoor option in case the weather didn't cooperate. We fell in love with the stunning indoor and outdoor views and the fact that they host one event at a time was also a MAJOR plus for us. During the wedding planning process, Brittany was easy to get in touch with, super organized, and quick to answer any questions I had. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Our guests are still raving about the food and talking about how beautiful the venue was. Diego made sure everything ran smoothly, and Taryn our bridal attendant went above and beyond helping out our photographers, and made sure my husband and I had cocktails. The entire Soundview staff went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was spectacular and we can't recommend them enough“
“Great tasting food, especially the chicken fingers, which is probably their best selling and most famous item. But they make great sandwiches and subs to order or from their list as well. In particular, their macaroni salad is great.Always busy, but never too long of a wait. They have a special line if you're just getting chicken fingers.“
“Dreamstreet catered my daughter's bridal shower of 65 women. The food was out of this world, everyone was raving about it. I didn't want just typical party platters and they did not disappoint. Danielle was a pleasure to work with and came up with a menu that I was very happy with. I will definitely use them again!!“
“Plates Catering recently catered my wedding reception on 6/17/23 in the White Plains area, and I have nothing but great things to say about my experience.Matt and his team at Plates Catering are consummate professionals and genuinely great people. They were extremely helpful and responsive when it came to figuring out how best to execute our desired menu according to our scale and budget, as well as guiding us through all necessary steps and considerations for our event's set up--at moments even putting in a little extra time beyond what we had originally contracted them for. The attention to detail put into the food and its presentation was evident long before it was even ready to serve, which really played a huge part in bringing this very special day together for myself, my spouse, and my beloved guests.At every step of the process, Plates was fully committed to making our event one that our guests would not forget. Most importantly, the food was absolutely spectacular: our guests repeatedly sang its praises, long after serving time had wrapped up.I would without a doubt turn to Plates again for any future events, and they would be the first choice I would recommend to anyone looking for an excellent caterer in the area (and honestly as far as they would be willing to work within the Tri-State area). Give them a call, you won't regret it!“
“I've been to this location a few times now. I must say, this is now a fave spot that I can enjoy anytime of the day or week.Food:I can speak for the sandwiches, they are unique and constructed with fresh tasty ingredients (that result in a delicious flavor that you will crave in the future).I highly recommend the Mamma Mia Pizza Bagel:Chicken cutlet,melted mozzarella, roasted peppers, baby spinach, pesto mayo on a pizza bagelAND also the Angry BLT:Crispy bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, chipotle aioli, everything seeds on a toasted bagel*Both come with a side*The coffee is delicious and fresh anytime of day, and they have so many drinks to choose from. I usually go with the Hal's or Fruit Punch Snapple.Can't wait to try the Pancakes or French toast, everything looks drool-worthy. Check their full menu out!Staff:They are very helpful, and make great sandwiches. They also keep the shop very clean too (someone is always cleaning or restocking something).Inside:There's plenty of seating, a restroom, and a decent sized parking lot (not too large, but perfect for their location).“
“Passed by this place, the place doesn't look classy but the breakfast and lunch I ordered there; they were on point... they are friendly take care of you fast, the food is basic but delicious, I would recommend this place, but because I like cozy.“
“Teddy's never fails to impress my guests!!! I ordered a shrimp platter, the turkey, wings, mozzarella sticks, & calamari that was out of this world! They told me how long to heat everything and it all came out moist, delicious and honestly, the calamari was AMAZING! Next year I will order the mashed potatoes too! The quantity, quality, and delivery were perfect and worth every penny!!! And Debbie...well she makes everything so easy to order! I have to give her a little shout out too...thank you Debbie! I give Teddys the highest possible recommendation for any future event!“
