Second visit to the Hauppauge Palace Diner and this visit was even better than our first one…read more Warmly greeted, immediately seated and offered something to drink. Our waitress was exemplary and engaging. Observed how she checked up on her tables and even held small conversations with her customers ( including us). The food was excellent, cooked to our specifications, well portioned and reasonably priced. The diner is spacious and great for large parties, well maintained and nicely decorated ( for a diner). The owners and staff are professional and extremely friendly. Additionally, for those who are senior citizens the diner offers a 10% discount but you have to ask the discount when paying your bill. Overall a great community friendly diner offering great food and reasonable prices.

When I called to make a reservation I asked if they could serve a piece of birthday cake with a candle. After dinner, they didn't bring anything as if I never asked.

No respectable Long Island diner is empty on a Friday night. The one redeeming quality was our server, who could not have been nicer, however the rest of our experience was terrible. Bathrooms? Gross. Absolutely disgusting. Floors were sticky and the whole bathroom looked and smelled like it hadn't been cleaned in decades. Our food was "meh". And don't even think you're going to get decent Cole slaw here. It was if someone said "just use water and a lot of sugar and hold the mayo. Sugary coke slaw? Gross. The pickle however was pretty good, but I can assure you I would not recommend going anywhere based on the quality of their pickles. How this place could possibly stay in business is beyond me. Take a pass on the millennium diner you'll be glad you did.

That describes the last time I was at Nappi's Nook, over two years ago. Flash forward to this morning and we're looking at an update that shows a much different experience this time around. You see that first time at Nappi's was not long after they had opened. Kinks were definitely still being worked out and at the time, I just couldn't see it as a place worth choosing over other breakfast spots. But seeing reviews, awards, and that the place was still standing years later led my wife and I to come check them out again. This second time around we snagged a table (they definitely get crowded quickly) and had some very friendly service from our waitress. Things started with their Nappicinos which were a huge misfire that first time, but a definite improvement today. My wife got the Biscoff variety while I got the Peanut butter cup and boy were they tasty. A good balance of coffee and sweet flavors. Now when it came to food, last time I went with chicken and waffles which (from pics) still seemed like something I might enjoy more elsewhere and so instead, I landed on The Stove Top Skillet. This was a combo of onions, peppers, potatoes, sausage, cheese, and over easy eggs. It came out piping hot and it was honestly impressive in how it tasted. I liked the thinly sliced sausage coins and although the pepper pieces were a little massive, they were soft enough with everything mixing together nicely. As for the wife, she went with a special in the form of the hash omelette which was exactly as it sounded with Swiss cheese and paprika hollandaise sauce on top along with breakfast potatoes on the side. I tried it and it was pretty tasty as well. One last item we chose to order was a single beignet for $2.50 as a side option. Sometimes we're just not feeling a full sweet breakfast, but this little fried ball filled with chocolate did the trick. Was it comparable to Cafe Du Monde? No way, but it was still quality. Honestly, the whole meal was quality and definitely several steps up from that first round a few years back. The only true gripe I can give is the soundtrack to Nappi's. The music, a touch louder than one might think at 9 in the morning, was a little too trance/dance/club for the vibe of breakfast. Maybe on a Sunday for a boozy brunch, but perhaps some music changes would create a little more of a "Nook" feel. Perhaps? Overall though, I'm really very impressed and glad to have given Nappi's Nook a second shot. It may have taken some time for that to happen, but it showed that this place was the real deal because it was still around, and winning Best of LI awards in the meantime. Perhaps a place to get to on the earlier side, but for sure a location I know I will be returning to for round three much sooner than expected.

There's a lot of space to sit inside, and no matter when we've gone there has never been a wait. Their menu is huge, so the downside of such variety is that some things aren't very good. The macaroni and cheese was much too gloppy, the BBQ pulled pork sandwich very heavy, and the chicken Alfredo penne was covered in cheese with not enough sauce. That being said... there are other things on the menu that are delicious, like the turkey club, gyro, cinnamon raisin French toast, and ESPECIALLY the Amish chicken salad sandwich. Altogether, candlelight is a very comforting and nice diner with lovely staff and reliably good diner staples.
