“Recently had my event catered from them- 100 people.When I tell you everyone is still raving about the food! This place knows how to make things fresh.This is place is definitely a Gem! I will be ordering again for every event and holiday.Thanks Gemellis Team !!“
“Some of the best Italian food I've ever had. It's a old school restaurant and I strongly recommend everyone make time to get here. The service is great as is the whiskey offerings, which was a pleasant surprise at an Italian place.“
“Torcello is a hidden gem. Run, don't walk to this lovely Italian restaurant which serves up a wonderful array of elevated Italian dishes, and makes you feel like you're VIPs as you dine. Food and drinks were all excellent. Easy parking too. Can't wait to return for another meal. Highly recommended.“
“It’s the best bowl of pasta you can get. I’ve been here 5 times in the past year. All the pastas are handmade, even the GF! Every pasta is done so well! Service is great, and if you like a little spice order the Calamari Arrabiata yum!!!!!!!!!!!“
“We held a private event for about 25 people last weekend in the upstairs space at Two25 and I could not have been more pleased! Leading up to our event, Andrea was very helpful and responsive, and the rest of the staff was just as incredible day-of. They were attentive to us and our guests (adults and children alike), regularly checking in to make sure everything was going well and everyone had what they needed. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was fantastic. It was the perfect place for our event, and we'll absolutely be back next time we're in the area!“
“Augustine has become my favorite restaurant in the Mamaroneck area. The fresh pasta with seasonal preparations are always divine and not your classic Italian dishes (e.g. gnocci with the lamb neck meat this spring, and wild boar in the winter), the wine on point, and the service warm and authentic. The atmosphere is elevated bistro, so it works for date night or dinner with friends but the food is significantly better than any other local restaurant. The chef didn't earn a Michelin bib for nothing.“
“(Edited my og review because it was poorly written and rushed.)So there I was, on a spontaneous adventure, when suddenly, BAM! Google throws me a curveball - "Nutella Empanada." You bet I was intrigued. It was like the universe daring me, "Bet, let's go."Stumble into this place, and it's like I've walked into the heart of the local scene. This guy, just oozing neighborhood vibes, hits me with, "You're not from around here, huh? Welcome to the best Italian spot in town." And he didn't stop there - gave me the lowdown on all the hidden gems nearby. This dude was living and breathing local charm, and I was here for it. The lobby? Packed with the coolest cats you could meet.Turns out, snagging a table at this joint is usually like finding a unicorn - pretty darn rare. But guess what? They worked some magic and got us in... into an outdoor igloo, no less! Yeah, you read that right. An igloo! (Peep the pics for proof - it's as rad as it sounds.)Now, let's talk food. Holy smokes, it's delish. The staff? Angels in disguise, I swear. Super friendly, on-point, and ready to make your experience top-notch.Oh, and if you see anything with Vodka sauce on the menu, just do yourself a favor and order it. It's a solid 10/10. Trust.All in all, this spot isn't just a restaurant; it's a local legend. Do yourself a favor and drop by. You won't regret it.“
“Everything was delicious as usual! Grace was our server, she was excellent, Thai Calamari was amazing as well as the Caesar salad, lamb chops, shrimp and surf and turf dinner. Omg almost forgot the garlic bread. We will definitely be back soon. Traveling from Queens definitely worth the trip!!!“
“Saturday evening dinner without a reservation. Walking in, my eyes immediately gravitated to the pictures of the owners and the many celebrities that have eaten and visited there before. The bar area is very nice and large, with TVs playing sports and news. We were greeted, welcomed and seated immediately. The dining area is very large and decorous. The tables large enough to sit us all. My cousin-in-law and his family frequent the restaurant and he practically knows everyone there, so as we sat, we were introduced to the owners and pretty much about a half dozen waiters and other staff members. All were extremely friendly and welcoming. As expected with all family style restaurants, the tables are very close to one another but positioned in a way that still allowed for ample space for you to move and sit comfortably. When we sat, there were hardly any people there, but within an hour it was full of patrons and large families. It was loud, but manageable. The food was unbelievably delicious. I haven't had true traditional family style Italian food in a long time. From the Fried Calamari and cold antipasto appetizers, to our Veal Parmigiana, Penne allá Vodka with Shrimp and prosciutto entrees. Paired with a Cabernet Sauvignon Palermo Napa, I truly enjoyed my meal. I haven't enjoyed food this good in a long time. My girls shared a huge plate of Chicken fingers and fries, and they loved it. I highly recommend anyone who's in the area to dine here. You won't regret it. Thank you for a great meal and patronage.“
“We hosted our daughter's first birthday here with 40 people on a Sunday afternoon. Working with Ervis and Gabriella was fantastic -- great communication and very flexible. The event turned out better than we could have expected. The food is AMAZING. Everybody is still raving about it and a few of our family members have already been back! Would definitely recommend hosting a small event here!“
“This restaurant can lend itself to a very noisy environment. Yet today, with several tables taken, conversation was easy and able to be heard. We have been here several times for brunch and a couple of times for dinner. Delicious salad with greens, grape tomatoes and fresh red onions cut over a chicken milanese. Companions enjoyed their choices of crab cake benedict and a large cubano sandwich served with homemade shoestring fries. Shared their homemade flourless chocolate cakes served with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream. Three happy people after an excellent brunch.“
“Impeccable service to food. Taken care of as if you were in a high end place in manhattan. Lenny’s does there best for the customer to bring good food and service in a welcoming cozy atmosphere that makes you want to come back regularly. The owner walks the restaurant engaging with tables and making sure all is of standard as well as the staff especially Sean!“
“Wonderful Family owned ristorante. Menu is exquisite with choices for all tastes and palettes. Sizable portions and attentive staff leave you with a satiating experience. I further recommend the desserts and Lemon Basil Martini! :)“
“The service always exceeds our expectations. Iggly is professional, knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. The food was excellent. The ambiance is elegant, fun and comfortable. It's become our weekly spot to decompress from a busy work week.“
“20/10 Westbury Manor was more than I could have imagined. It rained on my wedding day and all the staff worked their butts off to make sure my day went perfectly, and it did!!! This place runs like a well-oiled machine. Upon booking, I spoke with Mike. He was one of the first reasons why I wanted to book with WBM. Any questions I had, Mike was always there to give me the information I needed. Sandra was the next person I worked with and she was also just as amazing. The BEST part of my day was Phil, our Matre’d and Claudia our bridal attendant. These two are sensational!!!! Talk about TEAMWORK!!!! They were running out in the rain for me, carrying the train on my dress, keeping us cool calm and collected all day and got us anything that we needed. The list goes on for these two on how hard they worked and how much they did for us. Both of them were at our sides all day to make sure everything was up to par. Their attention to detail was phenomenal. We received so many compliments on Phil and Claudia and how wonderful they were to our guests as well as my husband and I. If you want to feel like Royalty on your wedding day, WBM is the venue for you. Jerry, the owner, even came up to my husband and I to make sure we were happy. I am now looking for ANY reason to book another celebration at WBM!!!“
“Italian restaurant in Roslyn village but not easily seen as its set back by the water. Food is good, service was good. Noisy and dark, needed a flashlight to see the menu.Sales are large size. My favorite in the Bronzino cooked in paper.There is a nearby municipal lot, street parking, and valet parking available“
“Have passed this pizzeria many times and never went in cause I just thought the parking was too difficult . Someone told me today that this was their favorite pizza in Plainview ( it at the border of Plainview and Hicksville on Woodbury road and south oyster bay road). I asked why and he said , it's the cheesiest! Anyway, I decided to try it and was very pleased. I had a cauliflower pizza which was excellent and I could present it was healthier. The regular slice was also good and really cheesy as promised. Inside the dining room is nicer than you can tell from the outside. The staff are efficient and accommodating. You can park on the street , but they DO have a parking lot in back, around the corner. Gotta say, although I haven't been here for 28 years, I plan to return.“
“Hi I don't usually don't do reviews but I had a surprise birthday party for my wife on 3/23 of a party of 20 people and from the beginning dealing with and planning with EVA she went up and above my expectations walking me threw everything from beginning to end I can't say enough of her and Barbara and just wanted to thank Barbara our server handled all of us with no issues at all and all of the staff who helped with everything from Eva, Barbara and would give both of them 10 stars and more and food was absolutely exquisite“
“Aside from always getting a great dinner there, we just held my daughters bridal shower there. Absolutely perfect. The food was delicious, the service fantastic and every part was on point. From the champagne punch to the cake. Thanks to Chef Paul and the terrific servers and staff.“
“I highly recommend eating here!! The food is Amazing!! The Service is always on Spot!! They are always friendly and helpful. You never have to wait to call your server, there always on top of it!! The atmosphere here is so pleasant. So in all you MUST try Filomena's you will not be disappointed!!!!“
“One word amazing. Only way you can get italian food of the same quality is buying a plane ticket to Italy ??. Menu is small but incredibley good you can't go wrong with anything on it. Great atmosphere feels like your sitting in your italian grandmother's house. Menu and desserts change daily. Everything is fresh and prepared to perfection.Parking: Free parking lot in rear.Wheelchair accessibility: Front door is wheelchair accessible“
“Really good pizza ! ordered the upside down Sicilian and it was perfect. ordered it well done. The bottom was crispy and the dough was perfect ! Really good pizza sauce ! Also had a plain slice and it was very good! Fried calamari were Very good !“
“Ardito's is staple of the community there in Mineola. Anyone who knows Rosa and Tony will agree with me that they are both amazing. The food is always on point and handed to you with a smile. The lunch hours can get pretty crowded and busy but is worth the wait. I recommend Arditos for everything from sandwiches to salads and pasta.. eggplant parm to die for and some of the best chicken cutlets I have ever had!“
“We had my mothers' 90th birthday last Saturday and we are very pleased with the entire experience. Robbie was a pleasure to work with, he answered all our questions and was helpful with the food choices and the entire setup. Ignacio and Rueben provided outstanding service the day of the party, and dealt with late comers and we even went over the time frame a little bit. Now to the food, wow wow wow! Everything was delicious. The crowds favorite, Ravioli's and Pollo Zingarella. Highly recommend it all! Thank you Piccolo's“
“Delightful Italian experience! We started with sautéd calamari and the Ceaser perfect for the both of us. The penne a la vodka was aldente and creamy, and the halibut was perfectly cooked amazing with the potato and escarole combo. Exceptional flavors, friendly service a must try! True hidden “
“Rose our server made our dining experience fantastic. She is very attentive and kind. Thanks for making sure that guests that enter your restaurant receive excellent service. Kudos to your management ?Dietary restrictions: Low sodium and vegan options will be great.“
“This restaurant is my husband and I favorite place on Long Island . We go weekly and it’s always consistent. Everything on the menu and the specials is amazing . My husbands been frequenting this place for over 30 years . The best of the best . The owner Billy is a great friend, a gentleman and always does right ! The staff is a pleasure as well . Best service! Can’t say enough good things . Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed!“
“Rialto's motto: Good Friends. Good Food. From my research I surmised Rialto has been around over 14 years. I was surprised the restaurant does not market their establishment date with their motto, as 14+ years is no small feat. My original visit a few years ago, attending an event with my colleagues bundled in a smaller section of the restaurant left a lot to be desired. It had myself questioning whether I should attend yet another milestone event squished in a corner. After succumbing to the pressures as to why I should attend, I was pleased that this evening's Jan 2024 Retirement Dinner, was set up in the larger part of the restaurant. Great company. Entering from the main door you are met with a warm, cozy glow on the smaller, bar side of the restaurant and then an immediate separation to the larger main dining area. The main area allowed the space needed for co-workers not seen in ages an opportunity to mingle freely. Much more comfortable. Good food. A small sample of the Berkshire Pork Chop was perfectly prepared. I definitely recommend. My Almond Crusted Stuffed Chicken Breast was a savory, sweet dish with the accompanying mashed Sweet Potatoes. Another perfect combination. To add to the pleasantries of the evening, our obviously skilled servers offered prompt, satisfactory service. Any request I or my table companions made were fulfilled without any necessary follow up. There may have been exceptions, though all appeared content with the service. If the opportunity arose again and dependent on the circumstances I would return to Rialto. TIP: Parking Lot in back Residential parking available“
“Great food and incredible service. We were a party of 6 that stopped by for dinner on a Thursday. Food was delicious, great presentation. We were celebrating a birthday and the folks at George White all made it very special. Highly recommend.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Villa Milano, and let me tell you, it was an experience to remember! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that instantly made me feel like family. The crew at Villa Milano is truly exceptional - attentive, friendly, and always ready with a smile.Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the pizza. Oh my goodness, where do I even begin? The pizza at Villa Milano is nothing short of spectacular. Each bite is a symphony of flavors, with a perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and toppings atop a delectably crispy crust. Whether you're a fan of classic combinations or craving something a bit more adventurous, Villa Milano has something for everyone. Trust me when I say, you won't be able to resist going back for seconds (and thirds)!But what truly sets Villa Milano apart is the atmosphere. It's not just a restaurant; it's a place where memories are made and friendships are forged over mouthwatering slices of pizza. Whether you're dining in with friends or grabbing a takeaway, you'll always leave Villa Milano with a smile on your face and a satisfied stomach.In summary, if you're in the mood for delicious pizza served with a side of warmth and hospitality, look no further than Villa Milano. It's a true gem in the world of pizza restaurants, and I can't wait to go back for another slice of perfection.“
“Our first time visiting Trattoria 141 was this past Monday and we had such a great experience we returned the next day for dinner to try more things on the menu. Besides the amazing food and ambiance, the staff were just as awesome. The owner Jimmy is very hospitable and dedicated to excellence. His staff Nadi and Rafaello are highly knowledgable and they were a pleasure to spend an evening with. We will be back.“
“North shores local staple. It's my go to, hands down. You'd be foolish to go anywhere else. Weather your in pt.wash., Rosslyn or Glenn head. 100% fresh every time. A true family establishment. Never disappointed.Parking: There's always a spotWheelchair accessibility: 4 wheels or two legs, your always welcome.“
“The service was excellent. Very loud on Peak Busy times. Seating is very tight. They pack you in. If you are looking for a quiet, intimate setting, this is not the place on busy peak times. The food was okay. Steaks are great. Salad was okay. You are going there for the steaks. I had stuffed shrimp with crab meat. Real crab meat. It was a little on the dry side. The potatoes were good. The chocolate cake was decent, but the actual cake was very dry. Service was amazing, and you are not rushed.Parking: Valet parking“
“Great family feeling. Delicious food...owner???.Had my birthday dinner tonight....can't wait to go back!!!!Kid-friendliness: My 7 year old granddaughter Abigail loves it there. She can practice the two words she knows in Italian... Ciao Bella and loves the food“

“A unique restaurant offering Mexican and Italian cuisine. My partner and I started off with a delicious Greek salad and then both had fajitas. There was an abundance of the chicken and steak in the fajitas. They came out sizzling hot and were seasoned nicely and flavorful. The service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant is not large and has a friendly and family atmosphere. Definitely check it out!!!“
“I've been coming here wooo for a good amount of years, I am from Queens and when I want authentic Italian food I come here why multiple reasons one of them it's their food. I am always trying something new and they never seem to disappoint me! It's crazy I live in Queens and come this far to have a slice, lasagna or anything different today I went in and had a Philly cheese steak, it was delicious but not like the Philly cheese steak sandwiches from Philly lol. But over all I'll have it again it was delicious hands down.If you're in town, check them out right off the the LIR North Station Plaza in Great Neck. It's better than Gino's thats for sure!!!Kid-friendliness: It's very family oriented“
“This is just like being home & the atmosphere is very comforatble. The service & staff are extremely attentive and very pleasant, especially Robert & Cheech. The drinks & food are terrific and the dinner specials are extraordinary & delightful. We always enjoy ouselves and it makes for an easy decision to want to come back.“
“La Ginestra has become out favorite restaurant in Glen Cove. The food and service are great. And here's a little secret. If you don't see it on the menu, ask your server if the chef can prepare what you want. No guarantee, but you may be surprised that get what you wish for.“
“We have been to wonderful Italian restaurant twice this far. Once when my wife and I went out for Valentines date and most recently for my daughter's 22nd birthday. The food is very delicious, the 0 service was superb and atmosphere was great. On top of that, the owner Dean was in the front to greet us entering and leaving his restaurant.“
“This was our 2nd time to Matteo's. We were introduced to it by friends just last week and we knew we were going to return soon. Their special $39 menu is fabulous. They don't skimp on the selections, food is delicious and the portions are generous. Not to mention, they give you a glass of wine with it. Whoever put the menu together is genius and we can't wait to return and bring some friends and family to our new favorite place.“
“This long time favorite continues on with great service and delicious food. Parking during the day is hit and miss but that aside for those of us who love a local red table cloth Italian with Italians at the helm DiMaggio's is it. One tip try the Lasagna and you will be hooked for life. Large menu and it is all delicious.“
“This place is great. Unfortunately I am posting this a little too late, so I forgot what food I had but I remember we had a great time. There was four of us. Service was great. Food was excellent because it wasn't. I wouldn't have kept the check in or I would've gave you a bad review but all in all I know we had a good time and it is a jewel hidden away off Marin Avenue where all the other restaurants are.“
“Dinner tonight was excellent! Staff is amazing everyone is friendly, helpful and hardworking. We found this gem in January and we have been back 3 times since then and we couldn't find anything wrong with this restaurant. Great staff, great and plentiful food. Don't miss out!“
“My main local hangout since I was 15! If you're a vegan, gluten-free or whatever, this place has got you covered! They have a great food selection and an amazing coffee/tea selection too! Try the awesome deserts as well! Atmosphere is that of gothic/punk east village right here closer to home! Tell them "Gordo" sent you!“
“My favorite pizzeria. The best one I’ve ever had in all of NYC and Long Island in terms of service and quality. And that’s coming from a carbophile that lives in the city and grew up in Long Island, so it’s fair to say this opinion comes from quite a large sample “
“As soon as you walk in the aroma is straight Italiano had me feeling like Julius Cesar ready to devour everything in sight because the smell was so amazing. Literally anything you want or are curious to try on the menu is gonna taste delicious will definitely be back asap!“
“Absolutely fantastic! What a gem!We were in town for a very quick visit and stumbled across this amazing restaurant!We ordered the calamari as an appetizer and it was simply delicious. Tender, cooked perfectly, and very tasty.As a main dish, I ordered the special seafood pasta fra diavolo. It was amazing. My wife ordered the branzino special and that too was divine.We closed out with a tiramisu that was one of the best we ever had.Added bonus, Tuesday is 40% off wine, so we had a great bottle for a super deal!Lastly, Cristian, our server was top notch!We will highly recommend this incredible restaurant with great ambiance and over the top food!“
“We’ve been coming to Franina for years but I never posted anything until now. The food is excellent and the presentation is elegant and creative. Check out the Frutti di Mare. It could have been plated like most other restaurants do which is a pile of seafood on a few large leaves of romaine. But at Franina, it’s a work of art and absolutely delicious.“
“We ordered a decent size catering order for my daughter’s first birthday and the food was excellent! Penne allá vodka, chicken parm and my favorite the chicken francese all came out so delicious. Everyone at the party was raving about the food.“
