    Wonderful venue to sit with friends
    Joel H.

    I have been trying to come here for years now. Remember, I live in Mineola and LLK is an 1+ drive for me. We met our friend who live just a short walk away on Love Lane. There is a very very calming comfortanble-warm atmosphere here. Just was just a lovely place to sit and spend some time. Again, This was a perfect spot to meet, catchup and do a slide of pie. Our very nice server asked what we wanted and to just fill time before dinner, we went with a coffee and some sweets. We definitely sat for a while whle catching up. We never felt like we needed to order more or we were here too long. I like the vibe here which is why you hear so many people speaking about this place. Looking forward to a return trip, ordering some food and just enjoying what the venue has to offer. KUDOs to the team at Love Lane Kitchen.

    My wife and I came here to get some food to go on our way to the Cross Sound Ferry at Orient Point. When I found out the kitchen was being cleaned for the dinner shift and they would need 20 mins before they could make my food, I told them I didn't know what to do since I have my dogs in the car. They said we can have them with us on the patio (which is covered from the rain)! So we sat down and split the delicious burger and fries while the doggies laid at my feet. The staff even brought a pie plate with water for them. Highly recommend.

    I can't say enough about Love Lane Kitchen. We have been here several times for breakfast, lunch and dinner and it never disappoints. Food is top quality and always scrumptious. The salads pictured here were both good to the last bite. We cleaned our plates completely. The ambiance is very cozy and servers are always warm and friendly. We always try to catch a meal at Love Lane Kitchen whenever we are in town- you should too as you won't be disappointed.

    Ambiance (5/5): Their indoor section was bustling on the weekend. There are a couple countertop seats as well. There's a covered outdoor section where we sat since they were dog friendly! Service (5/5): The establishment was very busy with every table basically full by 10:30am. However, they were attentive throughout the whole dining experience. The staff were super warm and friendly. Hot drip coffee is self-serve! The specials for the day were written on a chalk board in the outdoor dining area. We opted to try their: Lemon Ricotta Pancake (5/5): So so so good! It was thin and had a forward taste of the lemon which I loved. It tasted great even without maple syrup.' Breakfast Bowl (4/5): I don't think there was anything to write home about but their poached eggs were great! I should have assumed that the bowl was going to consist mostly of potatoes.

    Today my boyfriend and I drove through Mattituck and stumbled on Love Lane right off of the Main Street. Since it was lunch time - we were driving around trying to choose a place to eat and decided on Love Lane Kitchen, honestly very randomly. Right when you come in, you will notice that the place is filled with loads of corny but cute signs about love. There are couple of tables, a communal table in the middle and a bar you can sit at. The whole place had a very homely feeling to it. We were seated at the communal table since all the little tables were taken. We were serviced in a reasonable amount of time and were checked on often but not excessively. It is a small small space with lots of workers, so I imagine it wasn't hard to get someone's attention if you needed anything. Workers were pleasant and made small talk. The menu isn't very diverse in items, but definitely reasonably priced. We ended up spending less then $60 (before tip) for two meals and 3 drinks. I ordered the Goat Cheese Panini ($16) and my boyfriend decided to have Sliced Steak Sandwich ($22). My goodness my panini was delicious! It definitely qualifies as one of the best meals I had so far this year. The ingredients and bread chosen complimented each other very well. I definitely enjoyed it and would love to come back for seconds whenever I find myself in the area. As for my boyfriends steak sandwich - he gave it a 8/10. He told me the steak was cooked well and the sandwich tasted average. He is a hard man to please and an 8 is quite a high score from him. Overall I am very happy we decided to eat in this particular restaurant, and would love to be back soon.

    Good little diner in Mattituck with quick service on weekends. Decent prices. Wait times can be 15-45 minutes or so. We chose to sit at the bar and were good right away. Ordered a stack of flapjacks, two sunny side up eggs on the side, and a Cuban sandwich with fries. Flapjacks were excellent. Syrup was a little thin so we ended up using a lot. Cuban was very good too. Not too dry or anything. Would get it again. Fries were alright Coffee was as you'd expect - average

    A cozy little place.

    This places gets better every year. So many great choices on the specials menu, especially (but not only) for seafood fans. The blackened salmon sandwich is divine. Good price for great food and service always terrific.

    Super cute and busy restaurant on the main street of Mattituck! Came here with some family on a Saturday afternoon and were quoted a 20-30 minute wait for a table for 6. Unfortunately, we did have to be seated on the patio because there was no table large enough inside and it was pretty hot outside. I would really love if they could add some fans to the outdoor seating area for next year! I ordered the Pretty Bitter ($7) mocktail which was aptly named. If you are a grapefruit lover, this is the perfect choice for you. I also ordered the Baja Fish Tacos ($18) which were very dry and had the texture of cardboard. While the mango salsa was delicious, there was not enough moisture to save the seared fish. I also got to try the Chicken Avocado Mango Salad ($19) which had a very sweet mango dressing and some pale (possible poached?) chicken breast. I think I would have liked some color or some grill marks on it. My favorite entrée that I tried ended up being the Goat Cheese Panini ($16) which was absolutely phenomenal. It was packed with grilled seasonal vegetables like zucchini and squash with a healthy schmear of goat cheese. This is something I would definitely order again and again. Some comments from around the table included: - "This chicken is really dry" in regards to the Chicken Guacamole and Bacon Panini ($19) - "The steak is a little overcooked but I love the parm fries" in regards to the Steak Frites ($22) Overall, it's a decent place in town for some brunch but I thought the food was solidly average. I will say however that the service is great and they provide a QR code on your bill so you can pay via phone.

    LLK has the best steak sandwich on the North Fork. I hope this picture does it justice because the hangar steak is always perfectly marinated and so tender. Hangar steak is usually tough, but this is the opposite. Horseradish mayo and fresh red onions. So good.

    I stopped into Love Lane Kitchen recently, I have not been there in a while & wanted to grab a nice healthy breakfast. I had one of the specials which was salmon/avocado toast. It was very good. The service was friendly & and the restaurant was clean & comfy with all the Love Lane charm Mattituck has to offer.

    Five starts, especially for service. It was such a nice day out yesterday that my husband and I wanted to take out food to-go rather than eat inside the restaurant. We placed the order (chicken fingers and fries with pickles and a sandwich) and advised we'll be waiting outside. I didn't think they'd actually bring us the food (we figured we'll check in after a bit) but they were kind enough to bring us the food and take our payment outside. Another worker must've realized they forgot the pickles and brought it out to us. They were extremely kind and the food was delicious!

    My wife and I were meeting a friend who lives in Laurel for dinner. We researched local restaurants…read moreand came across the Watershed Kitchen and Inn on OpenTable. The description of the restaurant, the menus and the reviews online made us to decide to give them a try. We're so glad that we did! We entered through the bar entrance which was lively but not crazy loud. There was a musician setting up in one corner of the bar area. We could hear him during our dinner but it was not at all distracting (and he was quite good). We were greeted by one of the hosts (who I now believe may be one of the owners). We were welcomed and escorted to a table in the dining room right behind the bar area. From what I could determine, there were at least two other dining areas and an outside dining area (for dining during the nicer weather). Our server quickly came to welcome us, ask if we had questions about the menu / specials and to take our drink order. She was attentive, pleasant and was able to quickly and accurately answer questions that we had (we have some dietary restrictions and needed to verify some ingredients. She knew immediately what we could order to dine safely. We started our order with the Chiccharon appetizer. I had anticipated that the item would be traditional crispy Chiccaron. Instead the dish was more of a pork belly in a broth. We actually enjoyed that much more! It was plentiful, cooked to perfection and flavorful. For dinner my wife and our friend ordered the sea bass special. They both thought it was plentiful, perfectly prepared and tasted great. I ordered the pork chop with spicy cherry peppers in a light evoo broth. I told our server that I wasn't eating potatoes or rice and asked for a recommendation for a substitute. She recommended the broccolini which was a perfect alternative. My pork chop was served perfectly (medium, juicy,) and was huge! We passed on dessert but the options looked amazing. We will absolutely be back again SOON. Thank you.

    We were very impressed with the Watershed and have been back several times in the last few weeks…read more Each visit is better than the last. food has always been delicious and good portions. our server Cali was incredible, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend

We were told that Watermark was five minutes away, and people liked it. We verified that in Yelp, and sure enough, let's go.

We were told that there would be a slight delay for a table, but seeing the enthusiastic crowd, we figured it might be worth it. It was. We got a really great roomy table, and our server was a gem. Looking back over the reviews here, we got their star quarterback in Connor, who sat down at a spare chair and talked to us about what to eat. Within two minutes, we were old friends. I'm a big fan of originality in menus, and they had it to spare. I ended up with the fried chicken sandwich and Donna had the Left Coast sandwich. Ham turkey and swiss on crainberry bread.

After having my mind blown by the Everything Bagel Martini, we moved on to share the charred octopus and Leggy's Thighs. The charred octopus was tender, and paired so well with the citrus fruits on this plate, plus the bite of pistachios?! So well put together. Leggy's thighs (RIP Leggy) were literally the best chicken I'd ever had, fall off the bone tender and topped off with flavorful furikake and hot pickled fresno chilis. We also split the Wagyu sando which I'm literally still thinking about. Wagyu on milkbread?! What an excellent idea.
