    Great food. Great service. Will be back. Food was made fresh. When i got to the parking lot my food to go bag ripped open, and they gave me a new one with no issue.

    I give Friendly's 5 stars for their ice cream. Love the Reese's pieces sundae, the Jim Dandy is an absolute classic, and you can't beat the Fribble! Not a big fan of the food...it's, to me, nothing special...pretty average fare. (Though I DO like the Mac n cheese with franks...call me silly). The deal here is the ice cream...it's a can't miss!

    oh my god hidden gem along southshore of longb island…read morebreakfast lunch wow egg cream and all a must try customer service phenomenal cute

    Even though this place has been here for quite awhile this was my first time there as I very rarely…read morego out for breakfast, though they serve both breakfast and lunch. I got there a bit after 8am on a Tuesday morning and about the half the tables were filled with a mix of families, working people and I'm guessing a few retirees. Many must be regulars since they were greeted by name. I sat at the counter so as not to take the only remaining table for two that was available. I was greeted immediately and given a regular menu and a specials menu. A cup of coffee almost magically appeared and I have to say it was one of the best cups of restaurant coffee I've ever had! They have an extensive menu, everything from pancakes to waffles, eggs in every iteration you can imagine, to oatmeal! I decided on a spinach/mushroom/onion omelet with home fries a side of bacon and rye toast. You choose omelets come with one filling, additional are $1 each. The omelet was good but was helped by some salt & pepper. The home fries were tasty with just the right amount of onion but the bacon was overcooked for my taste though I know many people like theirs extra crispy. There were two waitresses and they both were friendly and attentive. By the time I was ready to leave every table was taken but there were still seats at the counter. Now I know why the parking lot is almost always full, especially on the weekend. If you are looking for Home Town restaurant with good food & great coffee this is the place for you!

    We have been wanting to come here for a long time and finally had the chance!…read moreFirst I would like to say that every single human that we came across, whether on the phone or in person, was extremely kind and had great customer service etiquette. I am a firm believer that this is just as important, if not more, than the food! First notable was Sydney, over the phone. We thought we were going to be late for our reservation and she assured me not to worry. They normally give a 15 minute grace period, but she knew we were celebrating a 50th birthday, an 85th birthday and Mother's Day (the week after). It was only four people but a big deal to us. Thankfully, we weren't late, traffic cleared up and we walked in exactly at our reservation time. It was a beautiful afternoon. 3pm on a Saturday and the small wrap around lot was packed. We got lucky as someone was pulling out, but people were parking in other surrounding lots and walking over. When we left, we also saw people parked on the street and in the huge shopping center across the street. Outdoor seating in front of the restaurant was full. There were palm trees and umbrellas. The numerous front doors to the restaurant were closed and it was frustrating because there were runners, wait staff and people trying to get to the hostess station and to the bar. Having my 85 year old mom navigate all this was tough. But once inside, our table was ready and waiting for us. The hostesses were handling the chaos of the people and the phone with a smile! We were given regular menus and a lobster roll and drink menu upon sitting down. Also, bread/dinner rolls. They were ok. There were 10 different kinds of hot and cold lobster rolls to choose from. It seemed that every table around us had at least one served to them. While we were looking and trying to decide what to order, Aurora came over to introduce herself and take drink orders. She was also super kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. She explained that she could adjust certain things, take things off the lobster rolls because they are made fresh and tended to the picky eater at the table. I live having a waitress that is patient and knows what she's doing! Two lemonades, one soda and a mocktail called Momma Said Mock You Out, came to the table. All good. Also ordered was a fried calamari appetizer. It was plentiful for the three of us that tried it. The marinara sauce was yummy. The calamari was fresh and had legs (my fave). But the overwhelming flavor of "fried" took away from the flavor of the calamari. It was crispy but it tasted like reused oil in the fryer maybe? Other than that, it would have been excellent. Not one piece remained. For our entrees, one chicken franchese over linguine, one order of seafood Spanish paella, one order of sliders with cheese (onion rings changed to fries) and one Connecticut lobster roll poached in light butter, no chives. The chicken franchise was not like you get in an Italian restaurant. It comes with cherry peppers and topped with mozzarella cheese. We held the peppers. The sauce was thick and rich, not light like we're used to. There was a lot of mozzarella cheese melted on top as well. Both of these things overwhelmed the dish. But not in a bad way. Just...different. the chicken was fresh and plentiful. The Paella. It came in a huge pot with a cover on it. It was HOT and HUGE. Lots of rice. Lots of flavor and it was eaten at home for 2 more days. The person who had it says it was good. Three sliders. Not good. They were overcooked. Buns bland. Burnt meat around the edges and had no flavor. Just covered up with American cheese. Ketchup saved what it could and two got eaten. The fries that came with them were "really, really good!" The Connecticut hot lobster roll. The star of the show. We got the one where we could taste the lobster. It came just as ordered, poached in just a little bit of butter with no chives. The bun was toasted and fresh. The lobster was a little chewy but plentiful. There were big chunks and lots of claw meat. No shredded pieces to cut corners. It came on a metal tray with a taco stand to keep the bread from getting wet. It also came with fries, coleslaw and a small pickle slice. It was fresh lobster and it was delicious. I'd definitely go here just for this. We were checked on often. Free drink refills. Extra napkins. No paper straws. We were going to do birthday celebrations but everyone was in a food coma. Side note- Ladies room was half inoperable and disgusting. Garbage on the floor. One of two stalls broken. Smelled of urine. Sink and floor wet (dangerous) and a line due to one operating stall. Please address this as it was not safe, can ruin an appetite and hold up the timing of everything else in the restaurant. All in all, I would like to go back and try more food. I only took off one star because the good outweighed the bad. My suggestion-open another location! Thanks for a memorable dinner with my special people!

    Sat outside for lunch. I was impressed with the Lobster…read moreroll- $38, but worth it. Tried the Maryland one with lump crabmeat- next time i will just get the original New England or Connecticut- Calamari was nice and plump, my friend said bit plain, but i love it with marinara sauce. The waiter was nice but not accomodating. We asked to get alittle shade at our table and he said there's nothing they can do about it. My friend and I together moved the picnic table alittle closer to the umbrella. Asked him to give us separate checks- only two checks- he denied it saying he can't do anything about it because of the boss. Never had this happen to us at a restaurant esp a pricey one. Did not ask for 8 separate checks. Hopefully if we do decide to go back, we will get a more accomodating waiter. Otherwise, we liked our first time food experience there.
