    Truffle Linguini
    Isabel J.

    I been wanting to check this place out for months and since it was a really cold night we decided to eat local. The place doesn't look like much from the outside but it's nice in the inside. I was happily surprised when the server told us that they had half price on all wine bottles every Wednesday. For starters we went with the prosciutto with buffalo mozzarella. The portion was large and very tasty. The mozzarella was a little too cold for my taste but it got better as it sat on the table. For my entree I had one of the daily specials homemade linguini with truffles in a cream sauce. I added some shrimp. This dish was superb. It reminded me of the amazing pasta dishes I had when I visit Italy. My husband had the salmon and said it was great. I don't eat salmon and didn't taste it myself. We finished our meal with the pana cotta. It was good but nothing to rave about. Our server was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Overall our meal was excellent. We will definitely be coming back and can't wait to try more of their amazing pasta dishes.

    Arugula and Parmigiano w/cherry tomatoes from main menu, Buffala mozzarella and prosciutto special and yummy bread

    Been too long...I love this place! Arugula and cherry tomatoes is amazing with lemon, EVOO and pepper. The buffala mozz with prosciutto both perfect! The bread is just good, but the EVOO on the table is fantastic and with just a bit of salt pepper and the bread...magic. Loved the wine! A montepulciano for $36 that was really great not good...unheqrd of in NyC... For entrees...We had a rigatoni night...four cheese with truffle Rigatoni Sausage and Mushrooms with a pink sauce, which is not some creamy pink sauce like a shitty place pink sauce...amazing!! And I am not normally a pink sauce fan. The ambiance is perfect, somewhat dimly lit, but perfectly lit at the table on the food... Finished off dinner with some homemade arancello (orange) and lemoncello, and well, I'm not a huge, lemoncello guy, my wife loved it, and I thought the arancello was amazing The service was perfect,

    Homemade Chocolate Terrine

    I love love love Concettina's Rigatoni with Sausage, Mushrooms & Smoked Mozzarella and Homemade Chocolate Terrine dessert. I've gotten the Rigatoni with Sausage, Mushrooms & Smoked Mozzarella on three different occasions and it never disappoints. It is very tasty and has a hint of smokiness that is delicious. Make sure to ask for additional bread, if you're like me, you will be using the bread to finish the sauce, leaving the plate clean. I really like their Fried Calamari and Fried Zucchini. The batter is very light so it doesn't overpower the calamari or zucchini. It's crisp and delicious. The Homemade Squid Ink Pasta was also very good. It's definitely lighter than the Rigatoni. I enjoyed it just the same. The Homemade Chocolate Terrine dessert was just what we were looking for to finish out our meal. It was like a smooth mousse texture with espresso whipped cream, toasted almonds and shaved chocolate on top. The service at Concettina is great! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. I don't really enjoy restaurants that are noisy and boisterous like a loud family dinner. Concettina is definitely not one of those restaurants. Concettina has a quieter feel. And, it's warm and welcoming.

    Honestly wasn't expecting much when I went on yelp to find the nearest Italian restaurant near me that I didn't try yet. Saw this restaurant with great reviews and decided to give it a try. Upon arriving I noticed that it was a small restaurant sort of hidden in between stores but also didn't think much of it. First thing is note is the phenomenal service by the waitresses and even the host. Secondly is the food is beyond amazing. I went with the special of the day which was squid ink risotto with shrimp and wowwww I could not stop till the bowl was scraped empty. But if this a first date this isn't something you should order considering the color it left in my mouth. This is a def hidden gem and absolutely worth giving a try. The food was delicious and I'm definitely coming back.

    Special: Prosciutto & Bufala Mozzarella
    Betty W.

    Came here on a rainy Sunday night and want to try this local Italian restaurant. We ordered the special, prosciutto and Bufala mozzarella and the mussels. They were both amazing starters. The prosciutto and cheese was simple and delicious, good meat and good cheese. Classic. The mussels were in a red sauce and again delicious. The mussels were fresh and plump. For entrees, I got the bolognese and my bf got the squid ink pasta. Again can't go wrong with these choices. Both made with fresh pasta the texture was great, the sauces were also good. Nothing to really complain about, just a very homey local restaurant with good food. Great for when you're craving some Italian food close by.

    OMG the Calamari and Zucchini Fritti for 2pp

    The best Italian I've ever had. On willets point, it's easy to find and parking isn't an issue. it's family owned and the attentive service is unmatched. The apps we're delish, we started with the fried calamari and zucchini. The marinara was amazing. As for the entrees, I went with the snapper and I've never had snapper. It was beyond my expectations, the asparagus was well cooked also. The dessert was my favorite, not only do they secretly have limoncello, they have ORANGECELLO! The first time ive ever heard of that! I got tipsy pretty quick with 2 shots and a glass of wine. Such a lovely family - I'll be coming back!

    Black squid ink risotto
    Jen C.

    Going to the restaurant for the second time after we had such an amazing dinner the first time we were here, I was very disappointed. It was Christmas Eve and we ordered from the Christmas Eve menu. My brother-in-law, his wife, my husband and I ordered the black squid ink risotto, lobster ravioli, black spaghetti with shrimp, and fried calamari shrimp and bay scallops, respectively. We were all underwhelmed with our dishes and none were flavorful nor memorable (All dishes were also at least $30 a plate). The Mussels Fra Diavolo we ordered as an appetizer was better than all our entrees, but could have been spicier in my opinion. We also had the homemade tiramisu and chocolate terrine, which on the upside, were good. Needless to say, I don't think I'll be back except to order the beef bolognese and salmon Farfalle, which we had the first time we visited the restaurant. Other than those two dishes, I don't think I would try anything new on the menu.

    My family and I went to dinner last night at Concettina. It was our first time there and it won't be our last. Everything was delicious. The food was seasoned well and were ample portions. The service from the moment we sat down until we left was very attentive. The owner often came to check on us as well which I believe is an important quality in a family owned business. They have a kids menu and I would say it is a great place to bring the family. The ambiance is both romantic if you sit more in the back and a more casual feel towards the front. The tables are spaced well so you don't feel like you are on top of the table next to you. Give this place a try.. you won't be disappointed.

    I had been wanting to try this place and what a better day than a Saturday lunch afternoon on a…read moredouble date hehe. I was also crazing something lighter and Mediterranean so this fit the bill. On to the food, the sole and dips were the only thing we tried that was worth getting frankly. The chicken souvlaki was def the worst thing we ordered. It was too charred and completely dried. Just not an enjoyable entree. The sole was yummy but did not blow my mind. The Bifteki was good but not as good as the sole. It was on the pricier side. 3 entrees, 1 app was over 120$. The interior and staff were great! Unfortunately, I don't think I will return.

    Maria's Mediterranean has definitely become one of my favorite spots on Long Island. I've been here…read moremany times, and my usual orders--the Grilled Chicken Breast, Beef Souvlaki, crispy Calamari, or the small meat platter--are consistently fantastic. There is something truly special about their seasoning that makes every single dish amazing. What really sets Maria's apart, besides the incredible food, is the outstanding hospitality. Maria and her staff treat everyone like family from the moment you walk through the door. It's that rare, warm atmosphere combined with consistently delicious food that makes this a place I always look forward to returning to. Food (5/5): Consistent and amazing. The seasoning is excellent, whether you're getting the juicy grilled chicken, perfect souvlaki, or the crispy calamari. Customer Service (5/5): Exceptional. Maria and her team offer the kind of genuine hospitality that makes you feel like part of the family. Decor (4/5): Warm, inviting, and comfortable--the perfect setting for a great neighborhood spot. Price: Around $35.00 per person.
