“Easily the best Mediterranean restaurant in the area. For that matter on all of Long Island! Spectacular food in a cozy, clean setting. Served by the loveliest family at a reasonable price. When you give Shish Kabob Grill a try you will have no regrets! (5*) Oh! I almost forgot…municipal parking is close by. ?“
“This is a favorite stop on our way back from northern Queens. The staff is unusually pleasant and the food is quite generous. I'd like to see another meat offering such as lamb, as I find their meatballs to be rather hard. A good vibe and an attractive eating area, also a plus. Enthusiastically recommended.“
“One of my go-to restaurants, this establishment is renowned for its exceptional cuisine and impressive menu options. The ambiance is equally impressive, with beautiful decor throughout and immaculate cleanliness, including spotless bathrooms. The staff and waiters are warm and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. Whether I'm in the mood for something classic or adventurous, the diverse menu always has something to satisfy my cravings.“
“Food is excellent every time however the portion sizes are ridiculous. If you’re charging $17 for a bowl I expect more than half a spoon of rice. The workers behind the counter are almost always oblivious and are not usually friendly. It’s a shame since the food is so good and this can easily be a 5 star spot.“

“Went to Blue Waters on a Saturday night. Definitely suggest making a reservation which we had because it is tight but cozy. Food was delicious. We had the Greek salad, branzino and salmon. baklava for dessert. Drinks were yummy too! Only negative was music a little too loud.“

Definitely would go backVegetarian options: Some vegetarian choices, gluten free choicesDietary restrictions: Gluten free optionsKid-friendliness: High chairs and made us comfortable with little one even though it was high end, not catered to kids“

“Overall, dining at this mom and pops vibe Turkish restaurant/grocery was a delightful experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend it to anyone in search of authentic Turkish cuisine served with a side of warmth and hospitality. Everyone was friendly. I can't wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings.“
“The service and food are always a hit!! I have been coming here for a few years, and Herb and Olive attracts the best customers! I end up having the friendliest conversations with such beautiful people! The salmon with rice and spinach is my favorite!Thank you!!!“
“The food doesn’t have much of taste, over-prices and smaller in portions but the service is very good. Friendly servers. Indoor seating g is limited to two tables despite enough space. Well decorative witb quotes and stuff (irrelevant to a food post) Plus point is it’s HALAL.“
“I remember from years ago that the soft shell crab was good, I don't remember what else made me bookmark this place to return. My partner loves his branzino fish. I had the skirt steak, it was tender, flavor was decent. The service was top notch. I will be back.“
“I’ve been ordering from this place since they’ve opened. I’ve lost count of the times Ive ordered, they are literally my go to over any other place in Lynbrook. Always consistent, always fresh and always clean. I love these guys! I wish this business years of success. We need you around! ?“
“Honestly super duper impressed with the quality of food & service we received. At work we will have a catered lunch maybe once a month and it is not easy to coordinate & get great food for an office of 50+ people. But they really got it right! Food came hot, on time, and they very generously provided serving utensils, plates & cutlery. I heard they even called to make sure everything was good which I think is the first of all the resturaunts we had catered. Food: we got the greek salad, rice, lemon potatoes, chicken souvlaki, gyro, falafel, tzatziki & falafel. Everything was super fresh & delish. -- salad had big chunks of feta & some grape leaves. I do wish the salad dressing had more acid(?) because the meal was a bit heavier but overall super fresh!! -- rice to me was a little soggy but some coworkers said they liked the rice and it was super fluffy for them so i think its more about personal prefernce. -- lemon potatoes has a great lemon flavor and was not overcooked. Lemon potatoes are one of my favorite things and this definitely made the list of some of the best. -- chicken came in big chonks and was a pretty moist; and considering i took one of the top pieces from the giant tray for 50 people and it was better than i expected. Only thing is that it felt a little bland? Bit it had great sear and was plentiful! -- gyro was not too salty which is a huge deciding factor me if a greek place is good! It was NOT undercooked in any way but i personally like the burnt bits so i took some leftovers home and airfried it and it was amaaazing. -- falafel was much bigger than i expected - like a golfball? Maybe bigger? Outside was crunchy and the inside still moist and was probs the best falafel i had in monthss. I personally prefer falafel thats not as coarse but again thats a personal prefernce and did not stop me from having a bunch. -- the tzatziki was thiccc like hard to scoop thick. It was honestly amazing! We got some extra lemons so i did thin mine out a bit and i think that helped add a lot of brightness to the meal. Overall- definitely think it will be made part of the rotation and I will definitely consider ordering on my own for lunch to try some of their other menu items“
“What a nice restaurant!! The service was great! The chef was out and spoke with us for a while and accommodated our off the menu request. We had Kubideh, a ground meat kebab with yogurt sauce which was delicious and Barg, a steak kebab. The very best dish however was the Zeresh Polo--a saffron rice with barberries--so good, with fragrant saffron and sweet/sour barberries. We also had a delicious baklava for dessert. My husband said the coffee was excellent. Will definitely go back!!“
“Met friends from CT., we are from long island. Food and drinks were amazing! Service was outstanding! Juan and all the staff were terrific! We will definitely make this a regular place to meet. Absolutely worth the trip!!! If I could give 100 stars I would! Complete package.“
“Great experience! The food and ambiance was amazing! The moment we got there, we were immediately taken care of. The food was decadent and full of flavor! The waiters tended to our every need and even gave us plenty of dishes on the house. Love the fact that they play music and play the drums live. It’s an excellent venue where you feel like you’re one family singing and dancing along to the songs. Would definitely come back here again and highly recommend this place!“
“Excellent experience from start to finish! Tomas was so friendly and was willing to answer all of our questions, doing so thoughtfully and patiently. The food and drink were all wonderful! A table of 5 people with 3 shared appetizers, our own entrees, and two desserts and everyone could only speak positively! We'll definitely be back!“
“Lovely welcome by hostess and owner and waitesss which set the tone for our brunch today Had the Rothschild breakfast which was delicious especially with my double order of labne! My husband had the Ahi Tuna burger which was also very tasty Will definitely be back!“
“Had a birthday celebration for a party of 8. The reservation, table and service was excellent. Highly recommend it. Be prepared to order the minute your waiter comes by as it gets quite busy and it may take a while to get your entrees.Vegetarian options: Grilled tomatoes are delicious“
“Food and service excellent, kid friendly. My daughter wanted Mac and cheese, although it wasn't on the menu the chef made it for her. My little 5 year old said it was simply "delicious". I would recommend Hunter because it was great decadent and family friendly.“
“This establishment is truly wonderful; the food was not only delicious but also served promptly. The young lady at the front desk welcomed us warmly and was incredibly courteous throughout our visit. Moreover, the owner took the time to personally connect with us, ensuring that everything met our expectations.Our experience was nothing short of awesome. Every aspect of our visit, from the delicious food to the attentive service, made for a memorable time. Will visit again and recommend it to others as well.“

“Today was my birthday and my wife asked me where I wanted to dine out with our two kids. I mentioned a few options, and asked for her thoughts. She mentioned having gong to Yummy Yummy with some of her girl friends recently. I agreed and we headed out there.We arrive about 6:45pm and most Bell Blvd, 48th Ave or adjacent streets surrounding the restaurant are paid metered parking till 7pm Mon thru Sat, and Free Sundays. On the side roads if you walk further you'll notice where the paid metered parking ends there is free public parking. My wife called ahead and made reservations for my birthday for 7pm. In conversation they reserved us half a Hainanese Chicken. That was a good idea because the place was packed at 85% full when we arrived. This evening was cold and a col breeze would rush in when the front door was opened.This restaurant has its own style. It's clean, well lit, ceiling fans in the front half with wood planks hanging vertically evenly space like steps getting lower toward the front of the restaurant. The planks are burnt with texture and they seemed to absorb sound making the restaurant atmosphere less noisy with so many patrons talking - it was comfortable and you could hold a conversation. The tables and chairs were sturdy, clean, and did not rock or creak.The wait staff were courteous and attentive. If you speak Cantonese you'll enjoy your dining experience because my wife conversed with our waitress asking about dishes before we ordered.We ordered the following dishes and am listing them in the order they were served.Roti Pancake - we ordered two which was served with a small bowl of curry chicken with chucks of potato.Cumin Pork Knuckles - served in a plastic basket they were crispy and mouthwatering savory.Fried Beef Chow Fun - my son immediately mentioned the dish had Wok Hei, the beef and noodle was savory.Steak with Back Truffle and Mushrooms - The beef was tender , with thick slices of mushroom and potato, and the truffle infused sauce was delicious.Hainanese Chicken - there was a slight wait on this dish. The check was tender and moist, it was served on a bed of thin sliced cucumber. A sauce tray with four sauces accompanied the chicken adding to the flavor of this dish.* I'd recommend any of the dishes we ordered, but my top favorites were the Chow Fun and Steak.Normally I'd have provide pictures of all our dishes, but the food did not disappoint so I was only able to ask at the last moment my daughter to snap a quick picture of the Hainenese Chicken which I'm still waiting on her to forward to me for this review.Payment - We were told they didn't take Discover, and listed MasterCard or Visa, and cash is king.I gave Yummy Yummy 5 Stars based on the food, service, and atmosphere. There are more and more quality Asian restaurants beyond Manhattan/Chinatown, , Brooklyn/Chinatown, and Flushing/Chinatown. I'd rate it $$, but I'd keep in mind that prices have been rising. *One unofficial litmus test I'd point out is that if an Asian restaurant is patronized by a high number of Asian regularly there is a high chance the food is good.“
“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!“
“Had the bacalao fritters as an appetizer. They had small shards of bone in them. We each pulled bones out of our mouths. My friend ordered the cod named after restaurant. Had bones. No where in menu does it tell you that their plate is BONE IN. Made meal unpleasant.I had lamb chops. I must say they were thinnest lamb chops ever anywhere. Usually they’re 3 double chops in every place I’ve had them. Here they’re 4 single chops so thin you can’t get them medium rare as I ordered. I’d say go but ask lots of questions.“
“Haven't been here in a while. Had heard not as good recently. Had been frequent visitors here. Decided to try on Friday. Everything was fantastic. Service spot on. Food delicious and plentiful. Prices seemed a tad higher, but not outrageous. Will return.“
“Tavern style bar and eatery with big ideas.Menu is eclectic with wagyu meatballs, a crisp roast chicken and fingerling potatoes, or a tender 12oz steak, which arrives sliced. All are terrific.The food is much better than you might expect, and the atmosphere and service are pleasant and unfussy.“

“The restaurant is truly exceptional, with warmth and hospitality. The cuisine is excellent and super fresh with impeccable quality that sets a new standard. The waitstaff are genuinely friendly and provide service that is attentive, personalized, and above all, exceptional. Every aspect of our experience was met with a level of excellence“
“Just ate here for the first time tonight after my in laws raved about it (they grew up in Oyster Bay). The food is delicious and the portions are large and reasonably priced. The owner is the sweetest guy. I don't know how he doesn't have people lined up out the door. Definitely a must when in Bayville!“
“I’ve gone here a few times with family for birthday celebrations; it’s my sister in law’s fave place for a gathering. The staff is very attentive and friendly, you get great service. The food is delicious - omg the zucchini chips, their dip (hummus and tzatziki sauce) and pita bread platter, calamari and sauce, their grilled shrimp, veggies, even salad is amazing! The whole family and children tend to eat very well when we come here! Would highly recommend. They even had a live jazz singer with band playing this past Saturday when we went. Overall great ambiance, esp for the family.“
“Been going here since i was alittle baby . Their traditional food is amazing and must try. They have my favorite desert ever there called galatoubodiko. Its like a thick flan with philo dough and hkney and cinnamon syrupt on it. My.other favorites are aphadite greek salad, spinakopita and avolemeno soup.“
“Great food. The Plain Tart yogurt is second to none. You can't find that kind of quality tart yogurt anywhere else. I literally came from work in the Bronx straight to Mamaroneck to pick up a Quart of the Plain Tart. They make it in-house, and its consistently a top quality product. I would highly recommend Esy Kafe.“
“im a driver... im always on the road. i buy halal food all over new york city. i just tried this restaurant and its the best chicken over rice i ever had. everything is so juicy and fresh. and the sauces brings everything together perfectly.wish i knew about it sooner“
“We visiting Port Washington all the time,but first time we eat in this place.The restaurant have amazing atmosphereI loved the solid background music too.Pita and hummus for the beginning!For appetizer I ordered calamari,the amount they served was like an entree for me.Well made! Crab cakes also huge comes with salad. The grilled Bronzino with capers was awesome. My son wish to have lobster mac and cheese but there was not on the menu. They made it for him anyway..The chicken really tender and delicious.My lobster (Thank you for broiling) I finished from the top to the bottom. I don’t wanna forget to mention the grill veggie on the side carrot,brussels sprout and the zucchini with steak fries a great combo.Extra stars, my puppy was able to come inside with us!“

“Loved Azerbaijan Grill. It is a distinct establishment, operating independently and specializing in Mediterranean cuisine. It is recognized for its exceptional chargrilled kebabs and an array of traditional dishes, reflecting the rich culinary traditions of the Mediterranean and Middle East. The menu shines with its variety, including stews, dips, and vegetarian options such as mousakka and assorted vegetable plates, making it a favored choice for those in pursuit of authentic tastes. The ambiance of Azerbaijan Grill is designed to be comfortably casual, focusing on delivering a high-quality dining experience that emphasizes the flavors and authenticity of the food rather than the decoration. This commitment to quality and authenticity makes Azerbaijan Grill a must-visit for enthusiasts of Mediterranean cuisine.Please note, Azerbaijan Grill and Sufiya’s Mediterranean Grill in East Meadow are separate entities and should not be confused with one another. Each restaurant offers its own unique take on Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes, contributing to the rich culinary landscape of the area.“
“What a great find!!! My husband and I are both greek and we can be very critical about certain restaurants that don't serve authentic Greek food, however we give this restaurant 4 thumbs up! We felt as though we were back in Greece with the food and atmosphere! The chicken Doner platter came with a soup and side, I chose Faki soup, DELICIOUS!!! my husband got the chicken souvlaki, also delicious!! We will definitely be back! We enjoyed the food so much, and the portions were huge, so we were able to take home the leftovers and enjoy it again the next day!! Bravo ? for a memorable and enjoyable meal! ??“
“This place is awesome. The staff are super friendly, the prices are reasonable for the pile of food you get, they have a liquor license so beer and wine are beverage options, the variety of sides is great, the ingredients are fresh, and every bite of food is so tasty! I got the salad+rice bowl with steak, babaganoosh, hummus, red cabbage, and cucumber & tomato mix with mint-yoghurt dressing (which you can get on the side like I did in case you don't know what you're getting into). It came with warm pita and I got baklava as dessert. I am so happy this place exists; what a delicious food experience!“
“I stumbled upon this hidden gem, right next to Manhasset Movies, on a pouring rainy day. I ordered their Bowl and it was AMAZING! All the ingredient was soooo FRESH! And the portion was so generous! Atmosphere of the restaurant is very warm, CLEAN, and welcoming. Staff is very friendly and courteous. This is a very cute cozy spot serving HONEST food to customers. I will definitely come back here and bring my friends as well. WE NEED MORE RESTAURANTS LIKE THIS IN OUR WORLD.“
“New adress: 16 memorial hwy, New Rochelle 10801 New York It continues to serve in its new place after covit 19. a larger and more spacious space. There is also a bar and outdoor seating. The same tastes and friendly services are waiting for its new customers at its new address.“
“Ever since I found this place, its the ONLY place around work I’ll go to for lunch. I once had something pop up immediately after picking up my greek salad there, and only had a chance to eat 7 hours later, after it had turned into a soggy mess. You know what: IT STILL BANGED! Deeply loyal, 10/10, two thumbs up, enthusiastically recommend“
“My friends and I came in on a Sunday evening for dinner and we were greeted by Rob who was the kindest and most delightful server ever. All of our meals were well cooked, balanced, and delicious. We came in with an appetite and dug in without taking photos of our dishes but they were all a 10/10. Highly recommend! For reference, we ordered the pita spread as a starter and had the Greek salad with grilled chicken, stuffed chicken with vegetables, and the lamb chops with lemon potatoes as our entree selection and ended the night with Maria’s award winning Blueberry Baklava which in our opinions needs more awards. Do yourself a favor and go eat here!!!“
“Wonderful atmosphere to enjoy with your family. Great staff, very friendly and sweet. Fantastic food. Beautiful location and property. We have been their a few times. Will be there this Sunday for Easter. My family and I really enjoy going. Did I mention how great the food was? Right off the highway easy access, tons of parking... You will enjoy your time there.Kid-friendliness: Very accomodating to children and their needs and likes. The adult food was so delicious, they didnt even ask for the childrens menu items.“
“Good place located across the street from Iona. I tried it for a late lunch. Food was excellent and service was very good. Nice atmosphere with an "upscale diner" type feel - classy but not overdone. Prices were fair and food was much better than diner style. Parking in back of restaurant was a plus. I definitely will be going back !“
“The food was incredibly delicious! I opted for the falafel wrap with fresh lettuce, hummus, and tahini sauce, and it was simply amazing. You can taste the freshness, and it was made with great care. I'll certainly be returning for more.“
“Really is 5 Stars. I have been here several times and every time you leave with a smile and talking about the food. The Pappardelle Bolognese, Vitello Martini, Pollo Scarpariello, and of course baked clams. By the way, the broccoli will be the best you ever had. (I know that's a weird call out but you'll understand when you try it) Drinks are great, especially the espresso martini (order it without Bailey's). Service and ambience are what you would expect at a fine dining Italian restaurant...really well done. Not stuffy...just really nice.“
“I think this is the best gyro I’ve ever had in my whole life. I wish i was joking, because now I’ll be walking in their doors every week. The meat was so tender and juicy and the pita was so soft and light, the veggies fresh and the WINGS!!!! So tasty. The proof is in the pictures. The employees were so sweet and attentive and the atmosphere is so nice. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to something nice ?“
“Of all the Greek restaurants I've ever eaten, this was the one that suited my taste the best. It wasn't too salty or spicy, but it had enough flavor of Greek food. The interior was luxurious and the service was very good. A perfect place to have dinner with good people.“
