    tables and chairs in a restaurant
    Christopher P.

    This spot was recommended by a close friend from the area so we gave it a try. When we got there, we realized why he had recommended it to us; the spot opens up directly to the seaport, giving us an entire view of the ocean (and CT if you squint enough), which is really a sight to take in while you dine in. There is also a cozy park in front of the entrance of this spot so if you have to wait for seating, you can spend some time here or by the pier taking selfies at the oceanside. The staff were very friendly and helpful, they were attentive to our needs and accommodating to folks like us traveling with our cubbies - crayons and paper. In terms of food, I would say it was okay. The oysters were good but it is hard to find a place in Long Island with bad oysters. Fried calamari was tasty but nothing stand out, the clam chowder was a bit watery but fresh, their burgers were very tasty (I enjoyed this one a lot), but the surprising standout was their chicken tenders - delegated for the cubbies. I was a bit taken aback that they didn't have fish and chips on their menu in spite of their very well-fried chicken tenders. I can really imagine a standout item using the same fried batter using some local fish. I imagine I would be coming back again and again for such a dish~ Takeaway, the location and service are really great, the food is slightly lacking in terms of pace of those features, but I can really see a lot of potential in their menu by using what they already have in place!

    Ferryman's grille offers a really good dining experience. They revamped some things and it was all for the better. We started with the calamari that was fresh and crispy, bursting with flavor. The clam linguine had perfectly cooked pasta and plump, juicy clams in a flavorful sauce. The lobster roll had tender, succulent lobster on a toasted bun. The views from the restaurant were breathtaking, creating an enchanting atmosphere that made it even better! The frozen margarita was nice to cool off the heat. This is perfect for the summer. The service was great also, with attentive and friendly server. This place is a must-visit for exceptional dining in a picturesque waterfront setting in Port Jeff.

    We went her on a busy holiday for dinner, no reservations so we were seated inside.. no wait.. service was slow.. food is good.. we both ordered lobster roll.. they made a mistake with our chicken wing order but we didn't bother returning since we waited forever for it.... The lemonade taste weird.. ambiance is nice with a band playing by the marina.. good spot at port Jefferson for a nice date..

    The Ferryman's Grille is a decent little spot right on the waterfront. It has a historic feel to with an open and airy feel. There are plenty of windows to help enjoy the view in nicer days. The menu is fairly simple and short but there are decent options for most appetites. The service was friendly and professional and the food came out relatively quickly. Everyone at the table seemed more than happy with their selection. It's a good option for dinner whether you're in your own or in a larger group.

    Room was freezing, half of my meal was ice cold, way over priced for the quality and portion of food.

    The ambiance was nice. The food could have been more impressive. The waitress was inattentive.

    Very uninspired. Plus, the wine by the glass menu showed the same selections as one would get at a gas station or CVS.

    Not very good food. Service was quite good but did not make up for the mediocre food.

    July 2926 - 2 for brunch…read more New place is big, bold and awesome!! Service fantastic, food and selection vast and appealing. Coffee service was very slow, and kitchen food delivery also slow. We did enjoy it all though.

    i have been to the original port jeff location before. this new location is much larger. there was…read moreplenty of seating inside, and there was no wait for a party of three on a sunday afternoon. honestly, i enjoyed toast even more than i remembered. to start, i had the mediterranean omelet, which included feta cheese, tomatoes, and fried potatoes. the potatoes were seasoned so nicely, and the crunch of the sourdough paired perfectly with the creamy eggs. i also tried the french toast. it had such a beautiful warm cinnamon spice flavor and were topped with incredible cream and strawberries. it was the perfect combination and made for a wonderful sweet brunch treat. the avocado toast also blew me away. the crunchiness of the bread paired with the creamy avocado was the perfect combination. its simple but it worked really well and was incredibly satisfying. the coffee was great too. i appreciated that it was strong and came with cream on the side. overall, i was really impressed with everything we tried. the space itself is very cute inside, and i really enjoyed the overall vibe. service was wonderful, and i had a great experience from start to finish.
