I went to try the food yesterday and waited for 10 minutes in front without being greeted by a host or a waiter. I'm not coming back here.

Just moved to the area and drove by a few times. Looked nice. Well, it didn't disappoint!! Food is the star here, but the service is just as amazing! We felt like we were on vacation in the Caribbean with the music and food choices! We will be back sooner than later!! read more

The service was poor. They need more severs to accommodate the amount customers. We were seated at one table then moved to another because we were mistakingly seated at the "VIP" table. Then we waited so long for our server to come and even acknowledge us. Took us about 45 mins just to get water, then the drinks were watered down, didn't taste any alcohol in them. Overall it wasn't a pleasant dining experience. read more

The food here is truly so good. I can't stop ordering from here . I've never had a more perfect or magical waffle. And the chicken ... yeah place an order, dine in, do yourself a favor and support this black business. Shoutout @thecomplexfoodie on Instagram for the recommendation! read more

Had a wonderful experience in this chic new, black-owned restaurant. We came for dinner and the service was wonderful for the beginning to end, our host was gracious and the owners even came to our table to greet us. The food is carribean inspired and delicious. There were also plenty of signature cocktails to try, my favorite was the "Rastarita", a caribbean inspired margarita. Our table tried a variety from the menu and this menu did not disappoint. Everything from the wings, jerk salmon, skirt steak, sweet plantains, gouda mac & cheese and coconut curry shrimp was to die for! Definitely have to go back for the brunch. read more

This is review is not for their food since I was never seated , but for poor customer service to those waiting to enter. When we arrived they took my name and number and said there was a 30 minute wait at 1:25pm. She told me they would call or I could come back in 30 mins. I did just that and was told Yes we have your name we are setting up. I sat back in the car with my friends at 2:10 we saw a party come after us getting seated, we went in again and we were told they were still not ready. We stood outside and a gentleman came out and asked why were we standing there he said you can wait in your car or take pictures. We responded that we already waited in the car for 30 mins and we wanted some fresh air. It was then 3:00pm and still no call or acknowledgement that we needed to be seated. It is now 9:25pm and we still haven't received a call. smh read more

Service was terrible, very short staff. Food was okay even after waiting an hour for it. I wouldn't be coming back

The service was fast & very friendly. I had the Lobstah Mac n cheese & it was one of the best I've ever had! There was lobstah in every bite & it was gooey like mac n cheese should be. My husband got the burger & he said it was one of the best he's had in a long time. It looked delicious. My son got a chicken sandwich & he too said it was delicious & their fries were cooked perfect. Drinks were very good as well. Well worth every penny!! I've been telling everyone about them. I hope they keep the lobstah mac on the menu!! read more

Went for brunch with some of my longtime friends on Sunday and had an excellent experience! First, they took COVID precautions seriously, from taking temperatures to disinfecting tables and chairs between customers. Second, the hospitality was palpable! Service with a smile and extremely attentive to our needs. Lastly, the food was great and well seasoned. Reasonable prices and on Sunday they have a brunch that includes your choice of a carafe of mimosa. Recommend this place if you are looking for good food with a nice vibe. read more

We just left there. It is supremely great food with a matching vibe. Definitely will be back.

Had lunch here recently. Diamond was my waitress's name, and she was awesome. Had the snapper with avocado and rice as sides. Fish was huge, smothered with onions, peppers, okra and a few biscuits. Slightly spicy but I was able to handle it. Don't be deceived by the surroundings. My food was great, and judging from other reviews, this place is "The Bomb"!, read more

I was in town, visiting my parents in Uniondale when we were looking for a really nice brunch spot for Saturday morning. My mom found a feature in Newsday about this restaurant and the food and restaurant seemed like it would be quite good. Now my mom and dad are in their 70's and were born and raised in Jamaica, West Indies. I went to check out Yelp to look at the menu only to see that the menu items seemed like Jamaican fare with a twist! We were definitely excited! The restaurant itself is not very large, but also not super small. There was parking on the premises. As soon as we walked inside, we were approached with warm smiles (hey Victor Cruz lookalike) and seated immediately. I went to the bathroom to wash my hands and it was immaculate. The general appearance of the interior was beautiful and you could tell they really paid attention to the decor of the restaurant. The "vibe" of the restaurant was very cool and classy...almost like a "daytime lounge" if any exists! 90's R&B added to the trendy feel of this restaurant. The ambiance was really nice and I would highly recommend this restaurant for a date. It was not packed to capacity at noon on Saturday, but there were quite a few diners eating and enjoying their food. The brunch menu includes chicken and waffles, egg sandwiches as well as steak, shrimp, pancakes, porridge, etc. It was varied enough, I think, to appeal to most diners. My brother and I ordered the steak and chimichurri over eggs, my dad got an omelet, my mother had the shrimp over eggs. We also enjoyed a really nice flavorful coffee! It might've taken a slightly longer amount of time to get our order out, but it seemed that they had been understaffed that day. The gentleman serving us was extremely nice and he apologized for any delay (which I did not find to be unreasonable). We all enjoyed our food and the portions were quite large (but not sloppy large), enough that everyone had leftovers (except for me, I'm greedy). My mother made it a point to tell our server that "I've never had Jamaican food like this before"! That was an accurate statement. To provide an example, the steak and eggs I had would seem like traditional American fare; but the hash browns served with it had a definite spiced Jamaican flavor and it made for a very impressive, distinct dish that you wouldn't be able to find just anywhere! My understanding is that this is a really new restaurant that has only been open for about two months or so. I genuinely, wholeheartedly believe that this is no less than a 5 star restaurant and I would ask that any Yelper not be dissuaded by less than stellar reviews as this restaurant is still navigating the waters as a newbie. The food and presentation is fantastic. The service is also wonderful. The prices are beyond reasonable considering the fact that this is absolutely a fine dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Good restaurant great food great energy!!!!! food was amazing the service great good music goodbye

Horrible experience! The owner was very obnoxious to me and my family!! Very rude! If I'm asking for oxtails which i saw on the Instagram page yet gave me this long condescending explanation why he doesn't want to compete with his aunt "why would i have that here, i don't want to go into competition with my aunt"which I'm here waiting to get food that i was looking forward to all week which just ruined the entire experience! After spending $90 on food after being annoyed and under appreciated as a customer i don't even think i can enjoy the food at this point! It sucks because I was trying to support a local business and i drove so far to this restaurant to be insulted and taken for granted bad vibes all around!! Will be back to leave another comment after we eat the food, I'm not wasting my $90. read more

Great place , food was very very tasty and the service was even better. Off the beaten path but well worth the travel. I can see this place getting crowded once the word gets out. Someone promote the bartender because the drinks were fire. I had the rum punch and I must say it knocked me out. For brunch I did the fruity pebble French toast. Highly recommend. read more

Came here for lunch on a Friday. Very friendly staff and great food! The London Bishop blew me away. Would definitely come back!

This review is way over due! I'm literally writing it now because i'm thinking about going for dinner tonight. Great food, service, drinks, music and just good vibes in general. The fact that it's just a few minutes away from my house is just icing on the cake but it would be worth traveling for . read more

I think this is a great little place. I know they wish they could have a bigger place. I dined yesterday during brunch. I enjoyed the atmosphere, reggae in the background was a little too loud but still good. Ordered the grits and jerk shrimp. They didn't skimp, good portions. The spices didn't send me to the emergency room, just enough to let you know. I will definitely be back to support. read more

Best kept secret, try the grits and fried chicken I recommend it. But everything is great as well...

This food was dynamite! Wings were delicious with a unique dusting of spices. Red snapper with rice was yummy. You can tell they really care about the product they are serving. Can't wait to try more items on the menu. read more

My husband and I just ate there, the food was great and the waitress was very friendly. I did not give it a five for the following reasons. The music was too loud and they need a dipping sauce for the fried plantains. The decor was very nice, I will return and recommend to friends and family. read more

This is our first time eating here. We tried to come before but they weren't open. We are do glad we did. The shrimp and grits are very good. The chicken and waffles are awesome. We can't wait to come back for dinner and drinks (full bar people.) read more

why you have a loud as$ DJ RIGHT next to them ppls table early as hell in the day( I sat there last time, way too loud) .. your known for the brunch atmosphere but asked my gf "So if we don't have brunch your leaving?" and yet y'all have no central air so it's always humid and hot .. the food if it's FRIED? Not fresh .. waffles??? NOT fresh . Idc about the prices cus if it's good I'll pay it but y'all need to da do better . The owner needs training if you gon be answering the phone speaking to ppl crazy . It's sad he told a group of 5 ppl they can't be seated ( even tho 3 tables was open and empty) they had no tables left since church was getting out at 3 ... mind u we was there and waiting for a table since 12:40 .. AND he claims they don't do reservations ? Regardless that's TWO-THREE hours So im confused?¿ lol . This is why people don't support the community business, y'all hire anyone without training and wanna do everything mad sloppy . Sad asl but def ain't my spot no more lol .Have someone Train yourself n also employees! The kid with the curly hair acts like he just started there yesterday (been there more than once with him as our server) definitely needs a hairnet on or something , anyways we had to go n sit in the car and wait then as we tried to get an update on the buzzer he handed us that already went off he claimed there was still not table available so we left ! And to make it even funnier we drove back home in that direction hours later they had people seated outside... which was not offered to us as an option being given that it was a very hot day and they HAVE NO A/c . Disappointed in y'all truly. read more

This restaurant is a little gem and the pride of its community. Now I know why so many people have been buzzing about this place. We chose Bayview Kitchen to host my sister's baby shower brunch. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. They catered to the needs of our large group and responded to each request. We were greeted by the owners who were very caring and even took pictures with our guests. The food was absolutely amazing! I ordered the shrimp and grits. The shrimp were succulent, large and perfectly seasoned with their signature sauce. The other guests ordered the salmon dish and chicken and waffles. No one was disappointed. There were several special touches along the way that made our visit so memorable. We definitely plan to return. We wish them continued success. I can already envision a second location in their future. A++++++ read more

My wife and I were there today for brunch. And I must say the food was very good. She had the Cinnamon Toast crunch French toast and I had the chicken and waffles. It arrived timely and hot. Both dishes were extremely good. A word of warning, the little container that comes with the chicken and waffles is marked SBS stands for stands for scotch bonnet syrup, sweet but hot! Our server Diamond was amazing and attentive as was the whole staff including our greater whos name escapes me (sorry) Because she took the time to explained the specials to us with great detail so we could make a informed choice. Thank you so much guys. Please support small business everyone. read more

Super delicious dinner! I had only been here for brunch but was happily surprised when I drove by and saw they were open for dinner. The jerk chicken was perfect, the shrimp curry was promptly eaten even though the portions are huge. My brother loved the skirt steak and we will be back for more asap! Love having a new addition to the neighborhood! read more

I went here with some friends -- we were looking for a Black restaurant to check out for Juneteenth. This place was AMAZING!!! Our waitress was so sweet, thorough and pleasant.

I am not a huge Yelper but when you have an incredible experience it's important to share it! This is a family owned business with food that just makes you smile! From the drinks, to the music and the staff one of the best food experiences I have had in a while! Can't wait to go back! read more

This week I read an article in News Day, about Bayview Kitchen. I took my family to eat there and it was everything I expected. The food was amazing, and the service was even better. Bayview made my family and I feel at home. Thank you for opening up such a nice and pleasant restaurant. I wish Bayview nothing but the best in your success! read more

Food is good, however owners seem just a little race discriminatory. Caucasian older couple told to move their car which was parked legally in a marked space by owner, then seated next to the bathroom though other tables clearly available. Less than 10 minutes later, a family of color parked in exact same spot, NOT told to move their car, and given a window seat. Don't really understand since we have been there multiple times and never felt it was an issue until today. Probably will not return, sad, but uncomfortable. They made their point loud and clear! read more
