Wine Bars near Holbrook

“Spent Saturday night with a group of friends at Carlo's pizza oven. Felt like you were in a neighborhood place where The food was great and our waiter was so personable. It felt like home. Made for a real fun night out. Added bonus the Portions were huge so there was lunch the next day.“

“I have been coming here for business lunches since January 2024. I have NEVER been disappointed. The owner is very nice. The bartenders (especially Kayla and Nick) are as great as they come and very friendly and attentive. The waiters are nice, although when busy, the service is kind of slower (at the tables-as expected during rush times). I have had lunch both at the bar and at a table. My go-to meal is the lamb chops which are always amazing. Perfectly cooked and served with a dipping sauce. Other dishes of note that I order repeatedly are the Korean BBQ Wings, Caramelized Onion Flatbread, Steak Sandwich, Pork Chop, and Salmon. There are a lot of other choices on the menu that I haven't even tried yet. Every client or Vendor that I have dined with here was very impressed with the food and ambiance. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to eat in the Hauppauge area. I know I'm coming back!“

“A hidden gem in an unlikely spot. The atmosphere was relaxing and calming. Not what I was expecting to see from the outside but once you enter you're transported to a new world. The staff was very friendly and our waitress was so kind. She was attentive, kind, and made sure we were taken care of..... But the food......" amazing". Very flavorful and mouth watering. Meatballs were a hit and the desserts are a must at the end. The drinks were made perfectly. You will be spending a little more than usual but it is so worth it.“

“Everything was exceptional!! From the service, ambiance and food. We even had the option to sit outside. Pricey but worth the experience. The service is friendly and not stuffy. Very attentive and they know the menu.Had the aged, strip for two. It was cooked to perfection & literally melted in your mouth.“

“There are a lot of great things about this place. For starters, the owner, Jackie, usually welcomes you at the door. On quiet evenings, she'll even ask you where you'd like to sit. If you've been there a couple of times, she may even remember which wine you ordered last visit. You can casually sit at the bar or on the leather couches and graze on cheese or meat boards while sipping on one of the many wonderful wine options served here. Jackie travels aboard to define and complement the restaurant's vast collection. If you're having dinner, the burrata appetizer and the tuna dinner are both amazing. Tables are spaced for privacy and you are never rushed. A great local option!“

“The restaurant is cozy and inviting, with a warm and homey atmosphere.The food was delicious, but the calamari fritti was truly exceptional ,a perfect ten out of ten!Our server, Dylan, was absolutely amazing, ensuring we had a wonderful time throughout our visit. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend it - 100% - for a cozy date or family dinner perhaps.“

“Scott and staff have catered 3 parties for me and I do frequent the restaurant. They are all wonderful and the food is by far the best in the area if not all of Long Island. If you are looking for creative, delicious food you are in for a treat!“

“Thank you! Cannot say enough about the great service and wonderful food we had today for my Grandson’s Communion! We will be back!“

“The food we got was delicious. My wife had the cauliflower crust flatbread, which was a little sweeter than she expected because of the jam on it, but still very good, and I had the fish and chips. The dunks were also very good and the ambiance was a lot of fun. We sat at the high tops in the bar which is more of the loud and a lot going on seeing...because it's a bar of course which is what we wanted that night, however there were much much quieter and low key tables in the back of the restaurant for the sit down eating experience. This one is now added to our regular list of places to go.“

“Intrigued by the signs in the windows exclaiming the benefits of kava, my friend and I strolled into the wonderful world of this non alcoholic bar. Being virgins to this root, we asked for guidance on what to order. This kava is supposed to have the relaxing, mellowing effects of say, Marijuana or even alcohol, but without the detriments that come with those. The young lady suggested a cold kava drink in a coconut cold mug with a slice of pineapple. There's a single, double or triple. She said it's suggested to start high and get the product built up in your system, then go down to single whilst in maintenence mode. We went with the double. We watched her spoon a large spoonful of what looked like, as another patron said, dirty water into our coconut cups! And garnished this dirty water with a pineapple. Bon Appétit! Well I have to say upon the first sip, I was waiting to be repulsed, but it actually didn't have much of a taste. As I got closer to the bottom of the cup, however, I got more flavor.. it was definitely a muddy, earthy flavor. I loved it I have to say. My friend was not a fan. Ha! I guess it's an acquired taste. The atmosphere was very chill. Seems an eclectic crowd. Young, old, parents, singles, white and.. well (us two) black! It was a cool decor. They have board games you can play. Seems a great place to chill alone with a book or laptop. It was dog friendly as well. I think if i lived here, I'd probably be a regular very quickly. Kudos!“

“Love Virgola!!! Such a hidden gem in Patchogue, with its wonderful service, enticing Italian wine selection, diverse array of charcuterie boards, and delicious cold seafood options. This is Manhattan-style ambiance offering a wonderful escape from the loud bars of Main Street. You won't be disappointed.“

“Just found out the cafe has a menu full of gluten free options and tried it out. Amazing place and food was delicious! They have gluten free toast, buns, soups, desserts. My husband was excited to be able to have so many choices in a beautiful restaurant. Thank you! We'll be back for sure!“

“Went with my friends for the very first time. We had such a great time, Samantha was an absolute all star! Great service, she made us feel comfortable and we had a great time with her as our bartender. We are definitely coming back! Also the cheese platter we got was delicious.“

“First time here and was blown away by the quality of the food. Fresh, hot, and unique. The Poutine was amazing. My 1 1/2 year old son loved the Loaded Potato soup. The sandwiches my Fiancé and I had were SO delicious. Very impressed with this place.“

“Everything very good, and hot.“

“Last night we (2 couples) went to Ruth Chris Steak House in Lake Grove, NY for dinner and had the best dinning experience we have had in awhile. It is now our favorite steak restaurant. The food is outstanding, compliments to the chief!! Also, I would like to comment on our waitress, Kim, who is terrific!!! She was so attentive to all our requests, took care of us all night. Also, the manager is a real gentleman, and he also made us feel comfortable and special. Without a doubt, this is the best steak restaurant on the Island, we have been to most of the upscale restaurants here and we rate this the best. If you want terrific food, great service, and a delightful ambiance, try this restaurant, you won't be disappointed!!!“

“My husband and I have been trying to go out to dinner for the longest, and finally, we got the opportunity. We chose to go to Lombardi's because it was local and the menu was extensive.This is like a hidden gem in the middle of Long Island. When we got there, we could see other patrons were enjoying themselves. Thankfully it was an older crowd, and we fit right in. No loud drunks, no loud music - the music was perfect for the atmosphere - think Frank Sinatra and the like. This place has a cozy and upscale vibe, with friendly and helpful staff. I would call it a very traditional Italian Restaurant.Let's talk about the food!We were offered a selection of plain or garlic bread. We got the garlic bread and WHOAH. SO SO good I had to control myself because I didn't want to fill up on bread before the food came. I would go back just for that bread lol.The salads that come with dinner are generous and have a nice variety of greens in them. The dressing is chef's kiss! DELISH! They are not small portions either.For dinner my husband got a pasta dish that he devoured and barely spoke because he was so into his food. This is a rare thing my husband is picky about food. I did snag some broccoli rabe off of his plate and I can say now that I want to go back and order what he had next time!I ordered something that actually wasn't on the menu, and before I even finished asking if they could make it, the lovely waitress was like "he can do it" I was astonished because in many places the chef will be a jerk about special requests and some flat out refuse.IT WAS THE BEST CHICKEN PICCATA I HAVE EVER HAD, I was so happy. The portion was huge, the flavor knocked my socks off. This is my all-time favorite dish and I order it everywhere. Lombardi's definitely made it the best.Lastly they have AMAZING coffee lol. The kind of coffee that has a quality taste to it, I suspect it might have been a 100% arabica blend. I drank it black and it was smooth with no bitterness.My hubs had a cannoli that was the size of a house, but I skipped desert because I was too full.There is a 100% chance we will be going back there very often in the future considering we live locally.“

“Butera's in Sayville has been a family favorite for many years. Everything from the tasty appetizers such as Shrimp Scampi Limoncello and Mozzarella with Tomato, to the entrées (Marsala, Francese, Chicken, Pasta Dishes, and Specials) are great. The sauces are thick and have a ton of flavor, very delicious. Comfortable family or couples atmosphere with friendly, helpful waitstaff. Service was a bit delayed due to what it seemed like the kitchen being backed up on our last visit, but it all worked out, and we still enjoyed our meal. Will return again in the future and definitely recommend you try Butera's of Sayville if you have yet to!Vegetarian options: There are plenty of meatless options!Dietary restrictions: Options available.Parking: Free parking lot behind restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Family-friendlyWheelchair accessibility: Yes, first floor with parking lot ramp.“

“Excellent bistro or gastro pub atmosphere. The food was really good. The mushroom and chestnut soup followed by steak for my wife and "duck duo" ( confit and breast) for me with a nice glass of Gigondas. What capped it, however, was the superb service. Kate, our server, is an exceptional talent displaying knowledge and experience besides warm, enthusiastic service.“
