    Barney's Long Island Duck, North Atlantic Halibut
    Ryan L.

    This ambiance of this restaurant is immaculate. Was there on a snowy winter night, they had the fire going and it was decorated for a cozy winter dinner. The prices are totally extreme so it is a special occasion type of meal. The service was great though we had 3 different wait staff throughout the night, unsure of which was infact ours. Also enjoyed a great cucumber martini with dinner. The food was yummy and overall we enjoyed Barney's!

    Clockwise: grilled portobello mushroom, crab cake app, braised short ribs, red snapper filet, key lime pie

    I drive past Barney's frequently and love the front porch country feel it exudes. The Locust Valley section of Long Island reminds me of sleepy New England towns, or places where Hallmark movies are filmed. Thanks to a gift card lingering from my birthday, I made a reservation and finally made it there. The beauty of life on Long Island is that you can escape for a meal, a day or a weekend to a completely different place. Barney's in Locust Valley is definitely one of those places. THE GROWS: Barney's offers a price fixe dinner on certain weeknights, including the night we were there. We were never told about it nor presented with the addendum to the menu which highlighted it. Offerings like that get new customers in the door to sample the food and service; it makes customers uncomfortable to ask for something that is already advertised on the restaurant website yet not shared with staff who work with you. We selected items off that regular menu/specials, but many people are hesitant to go out due to rising costs, so being open about this deal would entice people to come in and most likely return. Parking is on-street and while it isn't a busy street, you will definitely need to leave some time to secure parking, cross the street, and be on the lookout for cars driving too fast on that section of the road. THE GLOWS: There are two beautifully decorated rooms to dine in (as well as a back room where private parties can be held), in addition to their outdoor seating area (weather permitting). As soon as sat, we were given water and fresh baked bread with fresh churned butter. Our server reviewed the specials, many of the items being what we ordered. The short ribs were served with crispy onions and a large portion of mashed potatoes. My red snapper was a memorable dish: pan-seared snapper served with artichokes, olives, capers, roasted red peppers and these little polenta bites that were to die for! A large slice of key lime pie rounded out our meal. Barney's isn't around the corner for some on Long Island, but you are guaranteed a beautiful drive through the winding roads of that section of the north shore. And when you finally arrive, the quality of the food and service surpass the drive there. Check them out!

    Chicken paillard and Duck

    Returned to Barney's after many years and was not disappointed. The decor remains the same, which is to say charming country inn, with a roaring fire adding to the experience on a chilly night. We had the price fix and were satisfied with the selection. We started with the gnocchi appetizer. The gnocchi were pillowey and delicious and my husbands calamari crispy and a generous portion. For entrees we had the chicken paillard which was nicely prepared, light with a bright sauce and seemingly home made fettuccine. My husbands duck was beautifully cooked, crispy skinned, and medium rare. While the menu was not adventurous, the food was all well prepared, beautifully presented and priced well. Glad to revisit an old favorite.

    Unbelievable Experience! Small intimate restaurant with homemade bread, homemade pasta... Everything was delicious! Homemade ricotta gnocchi and amazing French onion soup. Highly recommend!

    Always & only, absolutely fabulous! Last night, we took friends in from the city for a couple of days and we all indulged in lobsters, which were steamed to perfection! We enjoyed sitting outside on the porch and ordered a couple of perfectly mixed cocktails and the kids had refreshing homemade lemonades with their freshly fried calamari! It was so delicately fried and so quickly devoured, we had to order another 1, which disappeared in rapid succession. Our waitresses were Arie from Albania and another very gracious American lady, who's name I forgot to ask, but who was equally amazing and hospitable. We had a fabulous, relaxing, fun time over a memorable, Locust Valley lobster dinner and it made me feel grateful to have handed over the cooking reigns!

    I'm back and better than before…read more We started with the spinach and artichoke dip, which was creamy, rich, and served with perfectly crisp chips. The shishito peppers were blistered just right with great flavor and a little kick. Simple, but done well. The smash burger was the standout. Cooked perfectly with a great sear, juicy inside, and topped with melty cheese and pickles that balanced everything. Add the truffle fries and it was game over. Crispy, flavorful, and generously seasoned. The Greek salad was fresh and bright, with good quality feta and olives. A solid, refreshing balance to the heavier dishes. Service was exceptional. Attentive without hovering. The decor is warm and stylish, great energy without being too loud.

The free bread is good and they did give us more when we asked for it. It also came with some olives which my husband loved. The corn muffins were also great. The mojito was only mediocre and the Guinness ok. The filet mignon and branzino and accompaniments were very good quality, with the steak and fish perfectly cooked as we ordered them. The sauces though were bland and uninteresting. The lava fudge cake didn't have real fudge and the cake tasted stale. The ambiance was very nice though and the seating comfortable with booths and comfortable chairs. Overall fun nicely decorated spot but don't think I'd go again.

A friend had told us about Plancha and never got around it until recently. It's a small place but a solid menu and lots of wine. They were also able to accommodate us with our stroller. Food we got the pan con jamon, garlic shrimp, patatas bravas, shisito peppers and the plancha burger. The sangria was very good. Juicy, not overloaded with BS fruit and just very flavorful. The bread is like a toasted baguette cut into 4 triangles topped with piquillo salsa, arugula and jamon. Pretty good, I was surpised there wasn't pan con tomato but it was still enjoyable. This is a bit more on the acidic side so if you don't like things too tangy - might not be for you. Patatas bravas, classic with aioli and bravas sauce. Shisito peppers blistered, a bit of finishing salt and lemon. Garlic shrimp was cooked well, personally I'd like a bit more garlic in mine and some bread to mop would be nice but still tasty. Plancha burger was definitely our favorite. It's a blend of wagyu sirloin and chorizo, so it's very juicy with a nice smokiness. Very pleasantly surprised and definitely will be back to try some other things.
