The compote was excellent I didn't need the syrup but it was a nice to have just in case. The service was also great! We had a trainee and she was very nice and helpful (even if she was new). I believe management also came around to check on everything but with nothing to complain about it was a quick chat. We were able to sit outside to enjoy the weather which is a nice bonus. The inside is a bit dark in ambiance but it does have a wonderful mood setting for a dinner or an event. Speaking of events, we had a wedding dinner here earlier this month and everything was beyond perfect from the staff, drinks, and food. Everyone had a wonderful time and I couldn't thank them enough! This will definitely become a go to spot.

Our group of 7 had reservations for 7:00pm a couple of Fridays ago. When we arrived, we pulled up…read moreto the valet, handed him our keys, and walked in right on time. We were seated immediately in the room toward the back left corner where we were the only table occupying the space. In fact, as the evening progressed, no other diners/groups were seated back there, which was nice. We observed that although it was a Friday evening at prime dinner hour, the restaurant never got too full nor was the bar area buzzing. Again, it was nice that it wasn't so hectic in there, but we noted that as curious for a spot like this, on a Friday evening, and when the weather was pleasant. Starting with a high point: our server was really good. He was a very nice young man who let us know at the end of our meal that it was actually his first day on the job. While we could tell he didn't know everything about the menu - which is totally understandable given him being a new hire - he was kind, personable, and went above and beyond to provide excellent and timely service. As for the venue, it was nice although not upscale and that was just our speed for this evening. We loved having the room to sit comfortably at a setup that could comfortably seat 8. As for the food, it was decent although I wouldn't call anything I tasted fantastic. For apps, we shared 2 orders apiece of calamari, crab cakes, and lamb chops (6 apps total) with the chops being my favorite out of those. The calamari were small and didn't pack a lot of flavor but they were fried well. The marinara sauce that came with it was also fine but not remarkable. The crab cakes were a little mushy for our liking. For my entrée, I ordered the Lobster Rigatoni. There was plenty of lobster on top, the portion was more than solid, and it came out at the right temperature but the flavor again failed to really impress and was somewhere between "fine" to "good". For dessert, I ordered the chocolate lava cake, and I was truly disappointed by that. For starters, there was no gooey "lava" as the name implied, and the edges were dry and seemed overcooked. The flavor again fell a little flat and I didn't bother to finish it even though I am usually a huge fan of chocolate desserts. All in all, we had an enjoyable evening as a crew, but the food could be elevated a bit from a flavor standpoint. I would give the food a little better than a "3" but I think they have enough going for them that amping up the flavors could do wonders for their desirability and drawing more diners.

Formerly "The View" restaurant which was very underwhelming…read more When we first discovered The Marker, it was through delivery via Uber Eats. Even with the transit time, the dishes arrived shockingly delicious. Hands down the best seared salmon and chicken parm we could find in the area. Finally, we made it out to the restaurant and they did not disappoint. Friendly service and great outdoor seating. Extensive menu. Bread rolls - nice and warm Lobster roll 2/5 - lobster rubbery, bread falls apart Beet salad - 4/5 generous chunks of beets, citrus, and avocado Salmon - 5/5 nice sear and soft texture. Not fishy Pork chops - very tender and flavorful We look forward to trying it again. Also the brunch menu looks great!

Today the service was appallingly slow. We arrived after the lunch rush 1:30pm and after being…read moreseated waited at least 30 minutes for our water and lunch order. Bread baskets came out to 3 tables that arrived after us, we had completely empty water glasses and no one coming by to ask for more water. It took a long time for our food to arrive, meanwhile people who sat after us got served. There was also some confusion about which server was responsible for our table. We heard they were short a server but honestly, where was the manager? Every table suffered from a lack of service. We were down to our last bites of food when our server finally showed up to check on our meal. For the food: the salmon with the curry sauce was good, however the sauce had no sign of curry...more of a soy sauce flavor. I was disappointed as that was why I ordered it. Two of us got that. The 3rd person got the fried fish sandwich for $26 that Henry's could have done a better job. It's too bad that the man who appeared to be the manager seems to be doing nothing. Any restaurant with this kind of situation should have had a manager walking around, perhaps doing a small dessert or something that made customers feel better about the lack of service. Members of our family have been here many times but seriously rethinking coming again for a while.

Each had its own cozy holiday twist and honestly set the tone for the whole meal. For food, the short rib tacos were the standout. Packed with flavor and dipped in a super tasty aioli, they were easily our favorite. The buffalo chicken sliders were another win, perfectly crispy and served with fries. The chicken club with sweet potato fries felt fresh, light, and still really satisfying. We wrapped up with the Santa Fe salad, loaded, refreshing, and dressed in a great balsamic vinaigrette. If you haven't been to Downtown Café yet, it's definitely a spot worth checking out -- great vibes, great flavors, and perfect for a casual meal with really good food.

In my…read moreexperience, splitting the time between your own beach chair, with time in the restaurant is the way to go. One night we reserved a fire pit couch set up for a 3 generation 6 person family get together. A great time was had by all, food, live music, and plastic cups of wine and liquor fueled a lot of laughter. Our latest visit, Lisa E and I set up on the beachfront around 6PM in anticipation of fireworks around 9PM at the Italian Festival on the other side of Hempstead Harbor. Just after sunset (apropos) we made our way inside the club, and found seating on the north side high top overlooking the beach. Lot's of fun people watching, split a decent burger with sauteed mushrooms and onions. G&T in cheap plastic cup and a generous pour of brown liquor neat primed me for the light show. We said our goodnight to the staff, made our way to our beach chairs and reveled in the shimmering lights from the ferris wheel and assorted carnival rides, then directed our eyes to a short but delightful fireworks show. In Lisa E and my opinion, you can craft an incredible evening if you just allow yourself to. Stop fretting about QR Codes, Toast Ordering,having to grab a drink at the lively bar (like the walk 10 feet will kill you) and choose simple foods that match the vibe. Go before they close for the season

Foundry Tavern in Hicksville was a HUGE surprise for me. I knew the place had been completely…read morerenovated, but I honestly wasn't expecting the food to be as good as it was. First off, the inside is beautiful. They did an incredible job with the renovation, and I loved all the little details, especially the custom 300-pound manhole covers they're using as tables around the bar. Even better, everyone working there was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Now the food! We started with the Baked Clams, and these were legit. You could've served them to me at an Italian restaurant and I wouldn't have questioned it. The Nonna's Ribs were probably one of the biggest surprises--slow-braised pork ribs with cherry peppers and finished on the grill. Fall-off-the-bone tender, tons of flavor, and I loved that they weren't just drenched in BBQ sauce. The Firebird crispy chicken sandwich was fantastic, and the Steakhouse Sandwich with sliced NY strip, mushrooms, provolone, crispy onions and horseradish aioli was also very well done. But that Manhole Burger deserves some special attention. Beef, American cheese, caramelized onions and dijonnaise on brioche. Simple combination, executed REALLY well. This was an outstanding burger and absolutely something I'd order again. And I can't leave out the fries. They're hand-cut in house, super thin and crispy, and exactly how I like my fries. Think that addictive thin fast-food style, except made fresh and much better quality. If you remember this location from its previous ownership, give it another shot. This is a completely different experience. Beautiful restaurant, genuinely friendly staff and food that exceeded my expectations. Foundry Tavern is a Hicksville hidden gem that deserves more attention--especially for lunch. I'll definitely be back.

Went to the Foundry Friday night…read more Off path location and not great parking. We had no reservations so we ended up sitting in the outside area. Cute little spot. Heard the guy next to us order a French dip and the waiter said great, we have only 2 left. So when he came to us I ordered and he said great timing it's the last one. Took 45 minutes to get our strawberry salad which was delicious. Another 3o minutes go by (and the guy next to me who ordered the other French dip had already finished and left) So the strawberry waiter, after more than 1.15hr walk over and says "hey, we ran out of the French so I ordered you the steak sandwich. Huh? 1 hour and fifteen min later you ran out and the other guy already ate and left? I said great, but I'm not paying for it. 10 min later the owner came out. He could not have been a friendlier, responsible and all around nice person. It wasn't that he not only covered my meal but the table but it was the way he handled it. Owning a restaurant is not easy and problems happen. Food - 8/10 Prices 9/10 Place 8/10 I would not only recommend this place but they have absolutely earned my business. I obviously can't give a 5 because of the incident but I will change this to a 5 when I go back and get the service I have a feeling I'll receive. This owner deserves the business because he knows how to run a business. Money follows the people not the other way around.

I was truly stunned by our dinner at Gatsby's Landing. My family and I came in for an unassuming…read morebirthday dinner and we left with full hearts and bellies! They start you off with some warm buns served with honey butter and they were GOOD. So good that we asked for more and then tried to stop ourselves from devouring them before our food even arrived. For appetizer, we ordered the crispy calamari. The batter was very light and the calamari itself was so delicate and sweet. You can definitely tell how fresh the seafood is and that stayed true for the rest of our meal. For pastas, we got the spaghetti fra diavolo containing lobster and shrimp. Again, the seafood was fresh, sweet, and tender. The pasta was also a shocker, not only was it perfectly firm, it had such a nice chewy texture. You can feel and taste how homemade the pasta is. Next, the rigatoni eggplant was our unexpected favorite. The pasta texture was even better with the rigatoni shape and the eggplant was not even noticeable, it blended in so well with the sauce. The ricotta on top was the perfect creamy addition. For proteins, the pork chop was very tender and juicy. The sweet glaze wasn't overly sweet and it really complimented the savoriness of the meat. The brussel sprouts on this dish were also outstanding. I love when a restaurant doesn't treat the veggies as a side dish! The branzino was light and refreshing, it was a really great balance to the other saucier dishes we had. The service was extremely attentive and so friendly. They really took care of us and made sure we enjoyed our meal.

Maybe not close, north shore food is... not generally as good as they charge. I don't want to disenfranchise anyones business; everyone has bad days and so do restaurants, I just hope they pay attention to their reviews and take one like this into consideration. - The cilantro on my tacos was literally deteriorating. It was not fresh. Tacos came with lime wedges, and even the limes looked past their time and ready for the trash. Dry and juice free. - the flavor of the rice and the beans was insultingly bad. Not sure how one can mess up rice and beans, especially if they are serving them in a MEXICAN RESTAURANT. - my baby is sick, so we got chicken soup. Boy, did someone spill the salt shaker into the pot? My takeaway was: is anyone actually tasting this food before they serve it to humans? Are all the people leaving positive reviews smoking dope?
