Just wanted to have a good time in Staten Island. We started the day off by the water, and asked…read morethe locals where we should go. They recommended, this spot. We drove all but four minutes down the street to the starlight for "hole in the wall". When walking in we were carded and immediately went to the bar to get a drink. Francis was such a delight throughout the evening, but so were the local folks! Met some cool people and had some great conversations! I hope my new friends, I meet last night see this post and know we had a great time! Thank YOU! i'd recommend this place if you're just passing through and in the area. If you're a friendly person and looking to have a chill night and meet some locals, this is the spot! Enjoy. Prices are right Services is great People watching is highly recommended

It's about a warm inviting encompassing feel along with cold cheap drinks. This place has all bases covered and then some, right here in Staten Island. $3 drafts as cold as an arctic breeze and $3 basic shots, hello. 4 flat screens to catch your favorite game or horse race. Long shuffle board. Juke box always banging. Friendly environment, in fact upon my first visit I was offered 4 free Yankee tickets, I gladly accepted. No need for quiche or caviar here plus they don't serve food lol, but guess what you're aloud to bring food in and there's several places within walking distance. Definitely predominately an older dude hangout, but all are clearly welcome. Next to the a train station and within some what close proximity to the Outer bridge. 14 or 15 seats at the bar. Fairly small, but nicely cozy. Yep this guy is a big fan and expect to see my checks in from time to time.

We've been to Marina Café so many times, and I realized I've never actually written a review!…read more We went for dinner with a group of 10 and had a reservation for 6:30. We sat inside with a beautiful view of the water. The vibe is quiet, waterfront and a little upscale, although with three kids, I'm pretty sure we were the ambiance that night . Our servers have known us for years and the service was great as always. We ordered approximately 7,000 appetizers lol. The rice balls are a MUST. They're small, crispy, served with honey and one of our favorites. Honestly, order your own because you're not going to want to share. The crispy rice with tuna was also outstanding--fresh tuna piled on top of perfectly crispy rice. We also had baked clams, flatbread, a summer salad and house salad, and everything was fresh and good. For my entrée, I got the zuppa di pesce with the spice held. The seafood was fresh without tasting fishy at all, and the tomato-garlic broth was delicious. The portion was HUGE. I'd absolutely order it again, but next time I'm sharing it with someone... especially after my 7,000 appetizers. Around the table, everyone was happy. The blackened mahi-mahi with coconut rice was delicious, the veal chop special was so tender my dad practically licked the plate clean, the penne vodka with shrimp was excellent, and the braised short ribs with mashed potatoes were a hit too. Even the kids were covered with chicken tenders, fries and buttered pasta. We finished with crème brûlée, chocolate and vanilla ice cream, lemon sorbet and raspberry sorbet. No complaints anywhere! It's definitely on the pricier side, but the waterfront view, consistently good food and wonderful service are why we've been coming here for years.

This is the second bad experience I had at Marina Cafe. May 2026 my wife and I celebrated our…read moreanniversary. They sat us next to a 20 top. Loud and noisey. The food was good but said we would give it another chance. Today we were celebrating my daughters birthday. Poor service, food lukewarm and cold, over crowded with large parties surrounding our table. They forgot the ricotta salada on the Rigatoni Vincenzo dish and there were NO cherry peppers on my pork chop. Again loud, no attention to our needs. One hour between apps and entree. (Asked three times for a glass of wine). Waitstaff breaking down & setting up large tables right next to us during our dinner. We skipped dessert and coffee. Had it at home to avoid another hour wait. We are NOT going back. BTW the waiter Kevin or the Maitre'd never stopped by our table to see if everything was ok. I think they could do better.

Good Food We have…read moreread of this place a few times and thought to give it a try. Smaller than I had expected. Only a few tables in the dining room, a few high tops in the bar area and a large bar. We chose to eat at the high tops because some locals were at the bar and quite boisterous and we wanted to join in. We enjoyed a bowl of Potato Chowder. Nicely done. We split the Blarney steak sandwich, delicious. Good beers on tap and the service was prompt. Good first experience. Food was good, crowd was having fun, and the place has great lighting. Thanks

This bar then continues into a lower level where there are more tables and lounge areas. CONS: During friday and saturday nights they do not limit the amount of people to come in so it becomes shoulder to shoulder and not enjoyable. Even with a big floor.
