After Mike took over the restaurant and transformed it into Zest, we try to make the trip to Bay Shore from out east as often as possible -- often meeting friends from Nassau, as it is a good halfway point. The brunch is phenomenal -- full of flavor. If you are a picky eater like my wife and I are, do yourself a favor and trust Chef Mike and his vision and get a meal as designed. While I have not had a bad experience yet with anything I have ordered, my favorite item on the menu is the Caesar salad (he puts Bacon in it!). If you are looking for a restaurant with a very cool vibe but not a crazy party scene, head on down to Zest in Bay Shore. Have some fun with the menu -- you will not be disappointed.

I felt like I was in the Jamaican countryside, with reggae music from Spotify playing in the background and several potted palm plants adorning the premises. I ordered the Creuban sandwich: Pastrami, Ham, Swiss, Sauerkraut, and Russian Dressing on a club roll. It is a cross between a Cuban Sandwich and a Reuben Sandwich, but it had no dill pickles! So I asked for some because dill pickles are an essential ingredient in the Cuban sandwich. The Creuban tasted better with the pickles, and that is how I will order it next time. Also some extra sauerkraut packed a flavor punch! Attention Egg and Cheese sandwich lovers: There are many Egg and Cheese sandwich variations here, including a Pulled Pork Egg and Cheese and a Porkstrami Egg and Cheese. Service was quick, and staff was friendly. Closed for business on Mondays.

These were good, crisp, hot, and the general tsos sauce it's coated in is bright, sweet, and tangy. Onto the main event. The french onion burger which includes a double stack smash patty blend of brisket, chuck, and shortrib, topped with caramelized onions, provolone, garlic aioli on brioche with a side of au jus. I tempered my expectations but this burger just blew me away. The beef blend itself is incredible and makes for a juicy and ultra beefy bite. The garlic aioli wasn't overpowering and the caramelized onions added that nice bit of sweetness. Dipping it in the au jus just took it to another level. I was truly in bliss eating this. The fries crazy enough were strikingly close to the ones offered at the golden arches, which I'm fond of. My only knock is that they were a bit well done so while they were very crispy, they were also a bit hollow inside. Our waitress was lovely on this night, shoutout Taylor R. She took the time to offer food suggestions for my friend and he ended up loving it. She also did the REALLY cool thing where she noticed my drink was empty and brought me a refill before I needed to ask. Will be returning for this burger.

The…read moreconcept is fantastic: the menu changes regularly to highlight a different state, and during my visit it was Georgia week. The food was outstanding from start to finish. The Vidalia onion soup was honestly the best onion soup I've ever had, and I'm a huge onion soup fan. The crab cake bites were among the best crab cakes I've had anywhere, which is saying a lot because I've spent years searching for great crab cakes. I also loved the maple bacon mac and cheese, which struck a perfect balance between sweet and savory. My daughter enjoyed the Georgia wings and sweet potato fries with a marshmallow dipping sauce. Everything was packed with flavor. The cocktails were equally impressive. I had the Georgia-themed Old Fashioned, while my daughter tried the Guy Fieri-inspired Georgia margarita. Both were creative, well-balanced, and memorable. As a mobility disabled person, accessibility is always important to me, and Roadtrip did very well. There is plenty of parking behind the restaurant with an accessible route to the entrance. Inside, the aisles are wide, the seating is flexible with movable chairs, and the restroom is fully accessible. The only thing keeping it from a perfect accessibility score is the lack of automatic doors. Food: 11/10 Cocktails: 10/10 Accessibility: 9/10 Roadtrip Bayshore earns my highest recommendation. Great food, great drinks, a fun and unique concept, and accessibility done right.

The premise of the…read morerestaurant is that every week they highlight a different U.S. state, creating entrées, appetizers and drinks that showcase the selected state's leading agricultural industries and cuisine the state is known for. The menu and food were excellent, there's truly something for everyone. We opted for the spinach and artichoke dip appetizer, and our entrees were the Brisket Horseradish Stack and the Blue Summit Burger. The service was great - the wait staff, attentive. What unfortunately has left a lasting impression and may be the reason I don't go back is they're okay, and likely encourage (based on their IG) content creators to visit. I understand in this day and age, exposure means everything. Getting a viral video could mean the definition of sink or swim in a competitive industry. What's not okay is having content creators with their bright lights blinding the patrons next to them. Having a bright camera light shone in our faces several times through our dinner soured the experience. I hope in the future the staff, and the owner (who was there), are more conscious of the dining experience for others.

For the most part it's your run of the mill diner, nothing special about it. The food is okay, again nothing special, just okay. I ordered a ceaser salad to start which was quite nice. My meal was the meatloaf and that was not only disappointing but so disgusting I couldn't physically eat it. It tasted bland and the gravy had this film like it was made from the cheap Campbell's soup you can buy at the dollar store and a few squirts of ketchup. The vegetables were overcooked and the whole experience was just sad. However the service was great and our waitress handled the situation phenomenally. She not only comped the meal but threw on a complimentary slice of cake to make up for the travesty that was dinner. Would I go back? Definitely not after that. But I can't knock it completely since our waitress really was so great and turned the experience around with her light humor and great service. If you DO venture in, maybe stick to a salad or burger. Stay clear of their dinners! read more

Ever since I was a kid Peter Pan was the go-to diner. From parties to a quick breakfast to the "final stop" after a night of drinking, Peter Pan never disappoints. A true sign of a well run business is the visibility of the owner/manager. There has never been a time that I was there and he wasn't. Either he's at the first expediting orders greeting customers sitting down chatting with the elder regular to busing tables himself.

The reason being is that they were working out the kinks so it would not be fair to criticize them during that period. My intent was either to write a good review or no review at all. That being said, things went very well. Any criticism is offered as tweaks not major issues. Food: 4/5 - I had a chicken sandwich and fries. it was cooked very well. It was moist and the roll it came on was perfect. It has a bit of a crunch. I wish it had a little more seasoning on it. That would have kicked up the flavor. My wife had the Farro Grain Bowl which was also tasty. No digestion issues. Service: 5/5 - Very friendly. Visited the table often. The manager/owner came by and checked in on us. Ambiance 4/5 - Nicely decorated with fun 1920's whimsy art. Nice bar with tv's playing a few sports games quietly. This was recently a different restaurant. The bathrooms were renovated but there still is only two stalls - 1 mens, 1 women. When the restaurant gets crowed people often have to wait. That happened all the time in the old restaurant and it happened today in the new one. Cleanliness - 5/5 - Brand new. Everything was super clean. Parking 2/5 - There is a parking lot but it's small. When the restaurant gets filled up, parking can be difficult. Value 4/5 - Good value for the money. It's not super cheap but the food was elevated. Overall 4/5 - This is shaping up to be a very nice place to go for dinner. There were plenty of items on the menu that interested me. I plan on trying them out. I will certainly be back.

I don't know if it's the way they clean (or don't) but the smell never left. If you're sensitive to smells, this might be a turn off for you. The menu is kind of standard luncheonette fare with sandwiches around $12-14 and platters in the $20 range. I will say this, the food was good for what it was and it was served hot. It came with no sides and was a bit meager on the inside of the sandwich however. I probably should have asked about refills on iced tea because my iced tea bill was higher than my lunch bill. This seems petty for something that costs pennies to make and costs $3.95 a cup. This, in itself, is enough to keep us from going back though being sensitive to smells might have been enough. Reading past reviews it saddens me that we might have missed the boat on its better days. You should know that they don't accept tips on your credit card...something we didn't know beforehand.
