| Rose & Thistle | Huntington, NY | |
|
The food here is nothing special, it's just available. The
place is mostly for young people who use it as a watering hole after
work. Friendly people & atmosphere.

| Soundview Restaurant | Greenport, NY | |
|
Although not much to look at from the outside as it is attached
to a motel, going inside changes all that. If you are fortunate
enough to be seated at a window the view is spectacular especially
at sunset!. The fish here is good, the people very friendly, and
it is more like a place in New England than on the Island. Do Not
hesitate to stop here. You pass right by when you return are heading
West from the Orient Point Ferry.

| Shaker Inn | Enfield, NH | |
|
Shaker Inn is right on the premises of Shaker Village.The food
is very plain New England Cooking.The atmosphere is interesting
and the menu does vary abit with the season.

| Marshland Farms | Quechee, VT | |
|
Marshfield Farms is especially nice off season...In the winter
the fireplace is lit and if you need to wait for the restaurant
to open or for your table you are invited to wait in their large
living room which is filled with games and paintings. Drinks
are served here if you would like them. During the summer cocktails
etc.can be had on an outdoor patio. The food is always very good.The
portions are small and the deserts are sometimes very interesting,
and worth a try.

| Wickers | Hicksville, NY | |
|
Wickers is a store front in a strip mall, with a large party room
downstairs and another one in the back. The food is good and the
menu is varied but the prices are those of a better place. It really
is set up like a diner on the inside with a bar which is usually full
of people. If you get the right waitress you're OK but if you
don't you can be there forever.

| T R's Great American Corp | Williston Park, NY | |
|
This nice little pub is generally jammed at the bar, but they
do have a nice room upstairs which is actually a restaurant.They
have a small variety on the menu but their steaks & Hambergers
are really good. The waitresses are friendly & upbeat and
they never rush you here. A good place to go with friend who want
to sit around & talk as the upstairs is pretty quiet.

| Giulio Cesare Restaurant | Westbury, NY | |
|
We are often taken to this"fancy"restaurant which
is as pretentious as you can get. Frankly I find it as phony as a
$3 bill. The food is good, everything is a la carte and they try
to direct what you order.One night 6 of us were at the table. One
of the couples frequent the place often.The waiters never bothered
to give us a menu just wanted to take our order. When one of the men
asked for it we were given the menu and the waiter stood there and
asked if we were ready to order about every 30 seconds.The known
couple was bowed to and a fuss was made over them and the rest of
us were basically ignored. As for their being fancy the bill certainly
was!

| Westbury Manor | Westbury, NY | |
|
Westbury Manor is very pretty to look at when you drive up as the
flower and front grounds are lovely. Too bad it all ends here.
The service is pretty bad and food is acceptable (just average).Hardly
what you would expect from the outside.
The amazing thing is that the same owners own the Fox Hollow in
Woodbury.The Westbury Manor really should take lessons in manners, food
perparation, presentation, and how to treat customers from
the Fox Hollow.The best thing I can think of to say about the Westbury
Manor is don't judge the book by its cover.

| Golden Coach Diner Restaurant | Huntington, NY | |
|
This diner has been here awhile and has a hugh menu as do most diners.
Their portions are large and the food is good. I particularly
like the chefs salad...which is far to big to finish but crisp
& fresh.
|
||
| Celebrity Diner | Syosset, NY | |
|
As with most diners the menu is large as are the portions. The food
is good and fresh. Although this diner is quite large it is almost
always crowded. It is kept fairly well, and costs abit more than
some other diners in the area.Over a span of years I have been here
numeerous times and they really haven't varied in the quantity
or quality of the food.

| Manero's Steak House | Syosset, NY | |
|
This old steakhouse still has a good steak and trimmings as its
menu and it probably the best thing there.Though they moved across
the street to their present location I still prefer the old place
with the sawdust on the floor...the atmosphere was much nicer
there....My very favorite here is the gorgonzola cheese on their
salad...not to be missed...along with their fries...

| Village Hero | Syosset, NY | |
|
The heros are great! If you decide to eat in or take it out doesn't
matter just get one...each is better than the next so don't
worry about what you choice, because for sure you will return.

| Adirondack Grill | Glen Cove, NY | |
|
This building is not much noteable from the outside, but when
you walk in the door you are greeted with the delightful smell
of cedar in the rustic interior.The people are friendly and the
food is good.We have eaten Hunters Veal here, as well as steaks, Salmon
and salads all are very good. The breads are a pleasant surprise
and on Monday nights they have a fixed prix menu which includes
an appetizer and desert & Coffee. Looking for something
out of the ordinary give this place a try!

| Henry's Confectionary & Luncheonette | Glen Cove, NY | |
|
This is an old time luncheonette. They also sell home made candy
here. The menu is a usual one but they still sell chocolate egg
creams and the like. Service is fine, although a bit hectic at
lunchtime. The food is plain but good.

| Broadway Diner | Hicksville, NY | |
|
As far as diners go this one is "Glitzy" with the miirrors
etc.As for the food I don't think they can hold a candle to
most of the ones just one town over. The parking lot is also hurendous.
|
||
| Empire Diner | Hicksville, NY | |
|
After having been closed for renovations for quite some time
they reopened over a year ago. Service is quick here and if you
order coffee here in the morning before you even decide what to
have there is a small basket of mini muffins at your table...a
very pleasant touch. I think because of there closeness to the
Hicksville train station they are alittle higher priced than
many other diners around, however the food is simple and good.

| Maine Maid Inn | Jericho, NY | |
|
This place has been sold about 3 times in the past 3-4 years.The
old Inn is warm & friendly especially with its fireplaces
going in the winter.The food however is inconsistant. There
are things on the menu which look & sound good but should be
left off the menu as they are cooked wrong or in some cases you are
told they are unavailable. There help is another story. Start
with Rude & illmannered... But add to that the inability
to apologize when spilling food on a customer just goes beyond
even that...Unless I return by accident or because I'm invited
to an affair I doubt that I'll be back.

| Bonwit Inn | Commack, NY | |
|
Having had lunch here with a small crowd everyone found the place
to their liking and was satisfied with the food. This old landmark
has been here so long I somehow thought the food would be better
than it actually was.. I had a seafood casserole which was fine.
They don't seem to rush you out which is nice.

| Village Way | Port Jefferson, NY | |
|
As we use the ferry frequently the restaurants in Port Jeff have
become a familiar place to us. The food here is fine, service
is abit slower than you'd like, but as everyone is very nice
you just accept it.
|
||
| Steamroom | Port Jefferson, NY | |
|
This fast food place is fine if everyone likes different things
and you're not certain just how hungry you are, also a good
place to take childre.The outside is not too clean looking but
the tables have uusually been wiped down. My favorite here is
clam chowder served in the center of a bread. It's plenty
hot, full of clams and best of all you needn't order anything
more until you've had that & decided you do. At some times
of the year they serve 2 lobsters for not much more than 1.It has
pretty good seafood but can't vouch for anything else.
