    What a great little spot. It feels very small in the best way. It gives off hidden gem feels and I love that. The drinks were really good, but the food was great! The bread and little plate of antipasto was a nice way to start. We ordered the short rib ragu with homemade cavatelli and cace e Pepe. I loved the cavatelli. I'm craving it just thinking about it. It was full of flavor and the short rib was so tender. The pasta was cooked perfectly. The Cace e Pepe had too much pepper for my liking, but my husband and two year old loved it. I'm looking forward to going back soon.

    Really fantastic spot and glad we came here! Tucked just outside of Huntington's Main Street, Cefalu serves quality Italian food with a nice (and affordable) wine list - just need to ask for it. The list of cocktails seems pretty classic and you can't go wrong with any of the selections The restaurant was pretty busy during prime dinner on Saturday but I think you can still walk in. The smell of the pizza by the slice right when you walk in is intoxicating and you know you're in for a treat. We got: Cacio e Pepe bites - pretty good with a nice sauce. I could recommend but not a must-have Fungo pizza - really amazing and balanced with the truffle oil Margarita pizza - solid pizza, the sauce is on the slightly sweeter side. Both pizzas had a nicely made dough on them Vodka sauce pasta w/ burrata - so good and would recommend. A very good vodka sauce Clam pasta - also very good with decent number of clams Tiramisu - not that sweet and perfect with the whipped cream. Really delicious tiramisu Crème Brûlée - also very good Service here is attentive and I'm a fan!

    So since my last review I've come here a dozen more times for the wonderful happy hour. Today after a hard day at work I stopped in for happy hour and to my surprise I was told Joe discontinued it a few weeks ago, WTF?!!! Happy hour is still listed on the restaurant website I guess it did not matter because I had to pay full price Sorry Cefalu I need to find another happy hour location

    Sword Fish, over cooked.

    We visited Cefalu as a recommendation for a family get together. I have only been once prior to Cefalu for a slice of pizza while I was on the run. Cefalu is located on top of a hill as you approach from west to east. They have indoor and outdoor dining with an airy appeal even if you are dining indoors. From what I read, Cefalu menu is inspired by the beloved culinary traditions of Sicily. Sicily is a place I have been twice, and I love dining in the Sicilian cuisine. Sicilian cuisine is known for using locally sourced ingredients, such as fresh seafood, vegetables, and citrus fruits. I once dined in Trapani and had their pasta with sword fish. It was to die for. The service was excellent, and our family get together could not have been any more perfect. We ordered appetizers to share with the group which were good. I was staying away from pasta at the time, so I ordered the sword fish as an entrée. That was disappointing, and a poor choice by me. The sword fish was not up to par. My photo of the dish is on Yelp. However, I am not intending to judge a restaurant by one dish I was not impressed with. I look forward to visiting the restaurant soon and venture into their other menu items.

    Stopped by the give them a chance cause we did love the old location - but they rebranded and I saw some good things via Google, Yelp... well we LOVED the food! The baked clams are a MUST. Our 12 little necks, were absolutely superb. Didn't have to add lemon the flavor was ON POINT! Then for our mains we had the Spicy Rigatoni vodka with Burrata which was really delicious and not too heavy surprisingly. I had a Caesar salad with blackened chicken probably one of the best EVER. Dressing, cheese, and those croutons all tasted perfect together, and it had kale so I felt like I was eating healthy . Service was very kind and helpful- and even though they didn't have printed lunch menus at the time we dined we still ordered from the lunch menu (from their website) and got the lunch prices. What I would like them to work on. The interior is still in need of sprucing up. I enjoyed the abstract art inside, but the walls do need a fresh coat of paint maybe something bold, but the concept inside needs an identity. At least the place is casual and not over priced and not pretentious like the places in the Huntington village. Front Patio is lovely and is well decorated. Once again great food, nice staff, and lovely location, just need a little love inside.

The staff is warm and inviting, Kelly, the bridal attendant was amazing. She knew what I needed before I knew! They went above and beyond to make our special day beyond perfect.

Simply put, John is the best. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. The grounds are gorgeous, and a fall wedding with the leaves changing made for a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony. The inside is so beautiful, I barely had to add any decor. We were able to add a few touches to make it unique and special for us, but it truly didn't need much at all. The food is amazing!! It's been 2 weeks since our wedding and we're still getting calls and texts about how delicious all the food was!! The variety of foods offered are amazing. There is truly something for everyone, and they were very accommodating for our guests with special dietary needs. One of the things I fell in love with about the Chateau at Coindre Hall is just how unique it is. Very few of our guests had ever been there for an event and everyone was blown away by the beauty and uniqueness of it. Coindre Hall is a true hidden gem on Long Island, and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who wants their special day to be unique and feel like the most important day ever. Thank you, John, Lessings, and the entire team at Coindre for the best day ever!!

As previous reviews mention, the inside is decorated to look like you're on a patio in Tuscany. It's deceptively large inside, and we sat all the way at the back around the corner. The waitstaff were very efficient and pleasant, giving my boyfriend and I time to look over the menu but coming soon after we'd set them down on the table. After some complimentary bread and very tasty garlic knots, we started with one of their appetizer specials to share, and were very pleased with it. It had fresh grilled Italian sausage served over garlicky cannellini beans and broccolini. Everything was balanced and well prepared. For our dinner we both got pasta; I got the butternut squash agnolotti (de zucca) with butter and sage, and he got the ricotta cavatelli bolognese. The bolognese was delicious, but I felt like the squash agnolotti needed something else to make it a proper dinner. The filling is just squash puree, no cheese, and the melted butter sauce is very very decadent. I would get something a bit more filling next time, but other than that I enjoyed my meal and our experience!
