    Seated right away and our waitress was fantastic. Fried calamari came out in minutes. I enjoyed the lavender lemonade and my husband enjoyed his alcoholic drink. My penne à la vodka was flavorful and fresh and my husband loved the risotto. We ordered the rainbow cookie cake for our dessert and have no complaints. Great time!

    Food was Delicious, Service was very Matter affect, may be a Long Island thing, not rude but not over the top friendly, Ambiance was a pub feel

    Fish and chips
    Brian C.

    Stopped in early (4:30) Friday evening after searching online for a dinner spot. The website does a good job drawing you in. Fantastic service by Shawn F. So many things that I would like to have tried, but I was in the mood for fish and chips so that's what I went with. Three pieces of fish fried golden brown. Very tasty. The fries were decent and the Cole slaw was on point. The menu is a bit pricey, but it is Long Island, NY. It's easy to sticker shock this Florida boy. I'm in town for a few more nights. I'll likely return to try one of their mac and cheese dishes.

    Came for lunch after hearing great things about this place. The staff was very friendly and our waiter was amazing. My meal came with a side salad so I opted for Italian dressing and it was so fresh. I got the mac and cheese and the portion was massive, it can easily be shared. It was delicious though and had breadcrumbs and parsley on top. The restaurant itself is very nice and spacious. Will definitely be back!

    I've been here a lot over the years and it's very hit or miss, and most times it's a miss. The ambiance is loud as there's a lot going on in this place, such as birthdays and celebrations. More often than not I leave disappointed. I ordered the special, Bourbon Fried Chicken, and the chicken was tough and not very edible. The waiter was great and attentive. Ice tea tasted like brisk and not homemade.

    Really great food. We went on the weekend and apparently they only do their dinner menu on the weekends which is fine but it also brings the dinner price. Also this place gets extremely busy. We've tried to go here another time and it was so packed we just left. But this visit we went around 2:00 and was fine. I got the blue cheese hamburger which comes on a brioche roll with onion straws. It also comes with French fries, coleslaw and a pickle. French fries were awesome, burger was awesome too. Would definitely get it again. My wife got the California flatbread. That's not really my thing but she loved it and couldn't stop saying how good it was. My son was being picky and ended up getting mozzarella sticks. I tried one and they were good and crispy. Service was good, the waitress was nice. Just make sure you are done with your food cause they're a little quick to take plates off the table. I was just eating the last few fries I had I turned my head for a second and next thing I knew my plate was gone Will definitely go back just be mindful the prices are a bit high but the food is worth the price.

    Salmon with mashed potatoes and vegetables.

    Karvers is one of my go-to spots for a sit-down meal with family and friends. From salads and sandwiches to wraps and burgers to seafood and quesadillas, there's something for everyone on the menu. My favorite dish is the pan-seared salmon with mashed potatoes and vegetables -- it's incredibly tasty. The waitstaff has always been friendly and lively, and there's a little patio outside you can dine on when the weather's nice. Every time I've been to Karvers (which is a lot, and usually for dinner), it's crowded. That says a lot about the restaurant itself, but keep that in mind before visiting. Highly recommend!

    Great food and service! Nice atmosphere and staff is very attentive. The ambiance is great.

    An unforgettable birthday dinner--service and food were top tier!…read more I celebrated my birthday at The Shed and let me just say... this place exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm, lively, and inviting. But let's get into the FOOD--because wow. The chicken wings? Fried to absolute perfection. And I'm not even someone who usually eats chicken on the bone, but these were so good I couldn't stop. Crispy, flavorful, and done just right. The shrimp and chips were also perfection--fresh, seasoned beautifully, and cooked exactly how you want them. We tried the fried pickles (so good!) and I had the watermelon cocktail, which was refreshing, unique, and honestly one of the best drinks I've had in a while. Now let's talk dessert... because we went in. We shared the churro waffle topped with both gelato and ice cream and yes--we pigged out and enjoyed every second of it. No regrets. Zero. But what truly made the night unforgettable was our server, Brooke. She was AMAZING. Sweet, attentive, funny, and full of positive energy. She made us laugh, checked on us at all the right times, and genuinely made my birthday feel special. That kind of service is rare, and it didn't go unnoticed--we even called the manager over just to brag on her! Every single person at the table loved their food, loved the experience, and we all agreed: we'll definitely be back. If you go to The Shed, ask for Brooke--and tell her Apryl sent you

Greeted warmly greeted when we first entered with only a five minute wait ( we had a reservation and I highly recommend making one).

Live music was on tap on this Friday evening which did make the dining room rather loud for holding table conversations but worth the live music being played that evening. The cocktail menu offers a good and varied selection of mixed drinks and wine and the mixed drinks are both flavorful and expertly presented. I would highly recommend both the Flappers Folly ( a refreshing floral mix) and the Espresso Martini drinks. Started off with the hot honey & bacon brussel sprout appetizers which were perfectly flavored with the honey and bacon bits over crispy brussel sprouts. All main dish items were very good. The Old Sport Burgers were juicy, flavorful and all cooked to perfection served with crispy string French fries. The French Dip Au Jus was well seasoned and not to dry with a flavorful au jus. I would highly recommend the Gatsby Grain dish bowel. Shredded chicken served over jasmine rice and vegetables was outstanding and served with a side salad. Restaurant manager Cathy was very visible in the dining room checking in with every table and asking for feedback which you don't see very often nowadays. Even got a personal tour of the new party room ( looking for a location for a future event). Overall good food reasonably priced , excellent service and nice decorum with live music offered on the weekends. A great place to grab a drink and listen to music while catching a great burger or the Gatsby Grain dish bowel . You won't be disappointed.
