The coconut ice cream icey was creamy like ice cream yet slushy like an icey it was cool refreshing and the coconut flavor was fantastic with tiny little pieces of coconut in it and the price was pretty great too. I'd definitely head back there the next time I'm out here.

Love Stewart's!…read more Whenever I'm in the area, I stop by. If you're on the road, it's a great place to stop if you need gas, snacks, drinks, or ice cream! Their bathroom are always clean. They have an array of snacks and drinks. They also carry other grocery items. They have ice cream, sundaes, and more! I'd recommend stopping here, if you're traveling and need anything for the road.

I'm not a fan of strawberry Jam on my ice cream. I ordered a Sunday with strawberry syrup…read more Strawberry syrup usually is a watery-like substance filled with crushed strawberries. It's not an overly sweetened jam-like substance likened to that you would put in the middle of a sheet-cake. I was very unhappy when my husband brought that home to me. It def ruined it for me! I'll stick with ice cream shop at exit 116 in Wurtsboro next to Teek and Vee's. But they only take cash- so keep that in mind if you choose to go to that one.

I can't say enough positive things about Yanni's. We visited this gem while staying at Kartrite,…read moredesperate to avoid the resort's ridiculously overpriced and frankly repulsive food. What a find. The menu had a great selection, everything from sandwiches to gyros, salads and classic sides. We visited twice tried a variety of sandwiches, green salad, and fries. Everything was well cooked, well seasoned and clearly made with care. They also had classic Greek desserts, including a phyllo‑dough pastry soaked in honey with custard and cinnamon (I'm blanking on the name, but it was absolutely delicious). The kids loved getting ice cream for dessert. The staff were friendly and welcoming. It's a pleasure when you are greeted by a staff who is genuinely happy to be there and interacting with guests. We ended up going back two more times during our short stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone local, and especially to anyone looking to escape the horrors of the Kartrite resort food. Our only complaint is that we don't live closer; this would absolutely be our regular go‑to spot if we did!

The burger was massive, delicious and cooked medium rare as I'd ordered it. The fries were tasty, too. The cookies though - if you love super soft and rich cookies you will love these!

I was very happy with my meal and will return!

It's an old theatre so quite historic to be eating inside. The decor is very unique like you walked into someone's home for dinner with the family. The food is made fresh. Lettuce and tomato are organic, beef is never frozen, they have fresh home made potato chips. Their burger is HUGE on a brioche bun. It's the greasy gourmet burger that is filling and worth the money. Their Cajun shrimp Mac and cheese is delicious! Ending it with their organic Mexican coffee was the perfect dessert. Only thing to remember is that there's no bathrooms so you have to go next door to Nellys sports bar. With that in mind, there's one chef making all the food so you sacrifice some time for fresh made food which is still well worth it. There's street parking in front of the store.

The black and white cookie was a decent one, and you can usually judge a bakery on that cookie alone. Overall, it all came to about $16. Plenty of seating and there would be plenty of parking out front of people knew how to park. They paint lines for a reason and NY drivers are just horrible. One thing that was annoying was the tip option, but it seems like it's everywhere these days. I'll give this place a 3, but it's a solid 3.5.

Solaia was an excellent choice for dinner!…read more For starters, we had a shrimp & mango salad over a bed of arugul. Light, fresh and perfectly balanced with a touch of sweetness from the mango. We followed with seared sea scallops with a creamy white wine sauce. The slight acidity of the wine and rich buttery sauce paired perfectly to complement the sweet scallops. For my entree, I had a broiled branzino with grilled vegetables. The branzino was lightly seasoned and perfectly cooked, moist and flaky! We finished our dinner with classic tiramisu. Rich and creamy! Can't wait to go back for another meal!

I confirmed with the server that it was indeed Risotto and not overcooked white rice before I ordered as some places have pulled that one. He assured me. He was right. Everything was very good. We would go back if in the area again.

Even the bathroom was updated and clean. My bride and I hopped over from Resorts World. Took less than 10 minutes. We have the fondest memories of this area. Our server, or as we said back in the day, waitress, Evelyn, was friendly and fantastic. We had delicious omelets with potatoes and we each substituted muffins for toast. Gloria had a mushroom & cheese with a blueberry muffin. I had a veggie omelet with a toasted bran muffin which was toasted to perfection on the grill. Everything was tasty, hot and accurate. Evelyn was a crackerjack on coffee refills. And the coffee was way better than what was served at Resorts. This will be our goto whenever we are in the area!
