I made a reservation for two on a Saturday night, and the restaurant was pretty busy, but they had our table ready even though we arrived 30 minutes early. Our server was Evelyn, and she was so sweet and she helped us when we were trying to decide between two desserts and three appetizers. We ordered: - Spring Salad (5/5) this tasted so good with the fresh mango, the snap peas, and the carrot ginger dressing. - Faroe Islands Salmon (5/5) I only tasted the rice, and not the salmon itself, but the rice was so good, and I just kept on stealing more from the plate. - Roasted-Half Chicken (4/5) This was my own entrée, and I loved how the chicken was crispy, and I also really liked the garlic mashed potatoes, but the only thing that I did not think worked well with the dish was the swiss chard. I think it would've tasted better with spinach. - Strawberry Cheesecake (4/5) this was surprisingly very light for a cheesecake, we ended up finishing all of it, and the whipped cream was really good. The strawberries were not my favorite, I kind of wish that they were just fresh slices of strawberries, but to each their own. All in all, this was a super solid meal, there's plenty of parking, and the restaurant is quite spacious, and the single bathrooms are also pretty large.

Also I substituted truffle fries and they were way too salty. The overall restaurant was nice, but I wouldn't get the French dip.

This is a brand new addition to Woodbury and we are so glad to have it. Plenty of booths, tables and hightops in a beautiful setting make this a perfect night out for an upscale meal that won't break the bank. When given the option we will most usually sit at the bar to take everything in and there is seating for about a dozen patrons there with plenty of elbow room. A private lot makes parking a breeze as well. There is a separate room for the chef's tasting menu and we are told that the menu changes frequently. This is a solid menu and restaurant from one of the original owners of Kashi now split up. Please, just leave us a seat if you decide to go as often as we plan to.

The restaurant is situated in a small shopping center, and there's plenty of parking available.

The drinks were amazing also. We started with the bread at the table and a delicious fresh butter; it hit the spot perfectly and was warm and with great crust. We decided to order from the price fixe menu since it was restaurant week. We both started with the New England Clam Chowder and it was perfectly seasoned and had a nice amount of clams, potato and croutons for texture. Wonderfully flavorful and it was good portion. Next we decided on the main courses, wifey chose the chicken scallopini with linguine; I chose the rigatoni bolognese - mostly because that was her second choice. We absolutely loved the food, portions were huge and flavors were absolutely top notch. We managed to get so full from off the entrees that we managed to have some leftovers for our kids to enjoy back at home. Of course we had to leave some room for desert. I didn't take a picture of it but we loved the carrot cake. If you're ever in the area, or can make it with reservations it is absolutely worth every effort to make it to this restaurant. Food was amazing, service was spectacular and the ambiance is chic and pleasant.

We were seated right away upon entering and had no reservations. The place wasn't busy at that time. The inside decor was beautiful and our waitress was very sweet and patient with us as we took awhile to order because we were catching up plus being indecisive with all the menu options. My friend ended up ordering the Short Rib Bolognese and I ordered the Shrimp Tagliatelle. I was told the tagliatelle was made in house and it was absolutely delicious and DID in fact taste like it was freshly made! I tried some of my friends dish and there was a lot of meat in her dish (a positive!) and it was also extremely delicious! Bonus is that this restaurant is a few stores down from Marshalls and I'm a HUGE fan of Marshalls so I went there after to walk off everything I ate as well as shop :)

Nothing against her salmon, which she said was excellent, or my buddy's Chicken Eggplant Sorrentino, but the two with the photos below were exceptional. I particularly appreciated that when I asked my waiter about substituting one or two mushrooms for the mozzarella cheese I didn't want included with my Grilled Chicken, Spinach, Broccoli, Red Peppers and Roasted Potatoes, he brought out my dish making mushrooms an integral ingredient. I also appreciated my waiter's cooperation, understanding that we hadn't seen our friends for a long time, and wouldn't be ordering food right away ... also, we got there 6:30 and didn't leave until 9:00, but were never rushed. This place isn't always perfect (as you can see from my previous reviews), but it's still one of our favorites, for lunch or dinner.

When you walk in, there's a kiosk that you can order your own customized boba tea from. Their drinks are next-level! I tried the Brown Sugar Boba and it was perfectly sweet, creamy, and loaded with those chewy, fresh boba pearls (they make them hourly, so they're always spot-on). Their fruity drinks are also great when you add jelly to them. I like their unique customized boba cups. They are very convenient and they keep the straw from tearing too big of a hole on the seal and thereby leading to spillage. I've never seen that type of cup in other bubble tea places. The staff is super friendly and quick -- even when it's busy, orders come out fast and accurate. Love that it's a local, woman-owned business adding so much joy to the community. That being said, it is a very tiny establishment. Sometimes we end up having to stand while we enjoy our tea. Better to take the stuff to go! Definitely one of the better new bubble tea spots in the area.

We started with fresh baked bread and their signature ricotta-style bruschetta dip, which set the tone right away. The meats and cheeses were high quality and full of flavor. The tortellini in broth was especially comforting and perfect for the colder weather. For entrees, the veal was perfectly crispy and paired well with the mashed potatoes and spinach. The balanzoni stood out for its rich, flavorful sauce, and adding the lasagna was absolutely worth it -- layered, hearty, and extremely satisfying. Dessert was just as strong. The tartufo was rich without being overwhelming, the ice cream was smooth and refreshing, and the biscotti was hands down the best we've ever had. Ending with coffee tied the meal together nicely. Service throughout the evening was attentive, well paced, and knowledgeable about the course menu, which made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a classic Italian feel that made it easy to settle in and enjoy a full multi-course meal. Overall, this was a well executed dining experience with thoughtful courses, strong service, and a comfortable atmosphere.

Service was attentive and they brought us bruschetta on the house to start with. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the Syosset area.
