I don't know about others, but it's been a real challenge for me to eat healthy during Rona times…read more After noticing my expanding waistline with dismay I decided to change things up a bit and took to Yelp for healthy alternatives. I found it's no easy task to find fresh vegan food in these parts, let alone places that deliver throughout Nassau and Western Suffolk counties as does Conscious Kitchen LI. So I was very happy to stumble upon CKLI's pics of beautiful fresh veggie concoctions on Instagram, perused their weekly online menu and placed an order via their secure website (note: currently CKLI is a delivery only biz, no eat-in facilities). Food is made from scratch, locally sourced and organic. For my first delivery I got: 1) weekly special salad - microgreens, chick peas, beets, asparagus, strawberries, almonds and other goodies with miso dressing on the side; 2) Falafel Hummus Wrap; 3) Thai Butternut Squash Soup; 4) Pasta Fagioli Soup; 5) Green and Red Juices. My food was delivered on time, nicely packaged in compostable containers. I enjoyed everything I ordered and portions were pretty good, especially the pristinely fresh salad which weighed in at 16 oz. Fresh squeezed juices were especially delicious, housed in cute glass bottles that one can exchange at the next order drop-off. Soups were more like stews, thick, hearty and well spiced with fresh herbs. CKLI is a small biz that delivers locally (0-5 miles from Glen Cove) from 5-6:30PM, and 5+ miles away from 6:30-8PM. I fall into the latter area and got my food at 6:30. Delivery is flat rate $5 Glen Cove local and $6 for other LI towns, not bad if you're placing a robust order. For now my cheeseburger-addicted hubbie took a pass on these vegan vittles, but I'm still hoping he'll try something from my next CKLI deliver lol. Whether you're a dedicated vegan or just looking for a fresh healthy alternative to the usual oily caloric takeout fare, you may want to give Conscious Kitchen LI a try.

I know some people that get this delivered. The fruits and vegetables are suspicious. They either…read morerot fast or don't ripen proper timing. We aren't safe if Bill Gates products are feeding people with the chemicals they use. Some items delivered will be already bad or about to be bad in 1 or 2 days. Stay away from this company.

I was about to place my first order with Epicured. They claim they offer 50% off your first order,…read morebut this is misleading. Their words verbatim in my texted offer when I signed up: "Enjoy 50% off your first subscription order with code: WELCOME50!" However, when I entered this code upon checkout, it only took 10% off my order's total. This is a cheap trick to get people to sign up for this meal service. A quick Google search revealed customers with complaints of refund refusals, unsafe food upon arrival, and other food-quality issues. I was excited to try Epicured with a discounted first order, but I feel like I'm being tricked right off the bat, so I will not be placing any orders with this company. Companies should know better than to over-promise and under-deliver. Be transparent about what you're actually offering. If you're not transparent, you only make customers angry, which is not conducive to the company's success. People deserve good customer support, safe food for consumption, and access to a refund policy when food products are damaged due to the company's own negligence and poor packaging. Epicured needs to reconsider their current business ethics.

Josie recently opened this new location after crushing the wood fire pizza game for years with her pizza truck.

We're so happy to see their business growing and can't wait to come back again soon. Glen Cove is lucky to have this spot!

The Metropolitan Caterers is a beautiful-amazing venue with a wonderful staff. It is very easy to…read moreget this location from either the Northern State, Long Island Expressway or Northern Boulevard. I have never been to the restaurant only catered events. We had approximately 80 people downstairs for a Kiwanis event in a nice size room with another attached area for the cocktail hour. We also used that room for the Buffet, and ultimately a group picture at the end of the night. This was an event focused on young students. Our Kiwanis Club's were honoring these students for their outstanding achievement in school. With that in mind, we kept the food simple, so they were Quesadillas, Chicken Franchise, Penne à la vodka, and mixed vegetables. Everyone enjoyed all the food. Chicken was tender and tasty, Penne was cooked well with a tasty Vodka sauce and the Chicken Quesadillas were tasty and cooked well. Apparently they do an outstanding job with whatever they serve. I always look forward coming back to this venue for what I know will be a great event. KUDOs to the team at Metropolitan Caterers.

This is Jasmine Parikh, Miss South Asia International 2021, my best friend recently got married and…read moreheld her Bengali/Desi wedding at The Metropolitan in Glen Cove, NY. I have performed at and attended attended countless community events at multiple venues across New York & across the states. Let me start by saying out of all my experiences this was the best experience working with a venue. Nobody manages a venue and leads a team like Mr. Raj and his entire team do. They were an absolute dream for my childhood friend to work with for her fairytale wedding. Raj worked closely with the bride & her family to ensure all aspects of the wedding were covered to perfection. He treats his clients like family. He made sure to attend to every phone call, meeting with the family whenever necessary & he didn't miss a SINGLE BEAT! Even with planning a last minute COVID wedding! If you're looking for outstanding delivery for your special event look no further, do not hesitate to book this hall. Catering/Food was outstanding! Delicious desi halal food was accommodated for the guests and special dishes/entree for the bride & groom which Raj personally ensured to set up! All of our family and friends were left in awe. Their tiered cake was a bliss! Decorations were absolutely phenomenal as you can tell from the photos. Mr. Raj went above and beyond to deliver extravagant decor for the hall! The bride so badly wanted a flower bed for her entrance which was specifically built for her special day as provided by Raj. The elaborate centerpieces speak for themselves! He added a tasteful touch with the bride & groom's initials on the grass wall amongst other details. He specially had a divider made as requested for the Nikkah ceremony from gorgeous flowers at the sweetheart table. Execution was a 1000% on point! Every detail was taken care of-- small and big. Raj definitely went out of his way to take care of the bride and her family. He catered to every single request made and absolutely went to larger extents than imagined to make this day special for both the bride and groom as well as their families. His entire team was hardworking, attentive and efficient! Above all, Raj and his wife are absolute gems of individuals with only positive energy and the best interest at heart for whomever books with them. His experience and expertise in the industry speak for itself and reflects in his work as he pays attention to understanding your needs and makes the best suggestions! This is not the first event at his venues I have worked with him for and I have seen nothing but professionalism and simply perfection every single time.

The food tastes homemade, but some of them can be salty...like the empanadas. Too salty!!! My sister ordered once, and it wasn't very good. I always order the chicharon with rice and beans. They make it really well there. They also have homemade quesadilla salvadoreña. It's one of my faves. They have ones that they sell, but it isn't their homemade one. The commercial brand one sucks so bad. Stale, too! I don't really go there to buy packaged stuff...just for the buffet they got. Everyone's really nice there. You can eat inside since there's a place to sit and eat. But i always take it to go. The service is quick, the prices are reasonable.

He suggested a few dishes and we couldn't be happier. What you'd normally look for dips or sauces, the food was spectacular as is. Definitely recommend and looking forward to going back there again.

The service here has always been friendly and attentive, but I really wish the food was as good as what we had the first time we came. We met the owner on that visit, and he seemed to really care about the restaurant. I haven't seen him since then, and I'm so disappointed at the place's decline. I reallt want to like this place.
