Awesome, awesome meal. Came here for a gentlemen's dinner and we were completely impressed. Located on Ocean Ave, just minutes from the SSP, River Mill is tucked away (if possible) on a busy road but with lots of residential areas. It has a parking lot, which is very convenient especially if you are having a large gathering. The menu features many items you'd find at other places but they each have a twist. The group started off with the tuna tacos and dumplings. The tacos were out of this world good. Just the right amount of flavor, crunchiness and that wasabi sauce, wow. The dumplings were nice and fresh, and really good for sharing. We were then given a complimentary dog bacon and cheese dip. Let me tell you, make sure you order this... you will not be disappointed. For dinner I got the Holy Schmidt burger. Really really good too. I was stuffed after everything. Oh, how could I forget all the craft beers on tap. Lots of local seasonal stuff. And the staff was super friendly and helpful with their recommendations. I cannot wait to comeback and bring the whole family. Their brunch menu looks so good too. read more

Came here on a Saturday at lunch time and sat at the bar. Surpised to find a brunch menu! Not common to find Saturday brunches. Long story-short: Fantastic! Only reason i am not giving it 5 stars is because i want able to see the entire restaurant due to a private party read more

The food is a hit or miss, I have had some mean workers like they would rather be anywhere but there but it's work so I understand. The place is very crowded because of how small it is so that get annoying after a while but it does have some cute things in there tho. read more

Great drink and food selections. Friendly service. Everything was delicious. Cozy atmosphere.

This is honestly a hidden gem in Lynbrook! I was initially drawn in by the view of their sports bar with tennis playing as a tennis fan. As I walk in, there is actually a whole restaurant in there as well. As a family of 4, we each ordered an entree and two drinks. The total came out to around $200 after tips which isn't bad at all. I was super satisfied with the service and our waitress was super helpful with recommendations! I left a happy customer and will definitely return again to try their brunch menu. read more

Excellent Italian with a big selection of great dishes, the service is great, the parking is good with a parking lot in the rear,

They were very accommodating to our big group considering that we did not call in advance. The staff tried to seat us all outside as they were very busy inside, which would have worked great had it been a pleasant sunny day but we had to go in eventually as it started to rain and lucky for us the inside had gotten less busy. The food served was excellent certainly. We had the Sunday brunch menu for the large party of about 20 of us. I had the Pulled Pork Hash which was totally delicious and my wife had the French Toast Casserole which we had never seen before but it was very rich and tasty. Full compliments to the chefs and many thanks again to the conscientious staff read more

A very nice place that is a sleeper. Great food, wonderful service, parking in the rear, And reasonable prices.

Friendly, cozy bar. It seemed like most of the patrons were regulars. They had about ten beers on tap with offerings from Firestone, Guinness, Lagunitas and more. The bartender was friendly, funny, and attentive. I had an order of wings with kung pao sauce. The sauce was sweet similar to a sesame chicken or general tsao sauce. It was topped scallions, shredded carrots, and crushed peanuts alongside freshly cut celery and carrots. read more

Food was great. We each got a special: strip steak, crab cakes, herb pistachio crusted halibut. A bit expensive at $40 each. Service was mediocre. Told to seat ourselves and table wasn't even set yet. Ambience was social but too loud. No choices for wine; one each. read more

Phenomenal tucked away place in Lynbrook. I have been to this location several times and each time I left with a happy and full stomach! The menu is unique and not like any other restaurant. I would recommend coming here for a weekend brunch with endless mimosas. The service is not the fastest but the food is worth the wait. The breakfast pizza is out of this world. I will definitely be returning to the River Mill ***** read more

Great spot for a date or a night out with the family. Every item on the menu is great but the baked clams and pork chop are amazing! Brunch is also awesome- beat cornbread ever! The owner and staff are always friendly and accommodating. read more

Nice local spot. Kid friendly. Family friendly. TVs available. Bar is spacious. Brunch food and boozy brunch options is amazing! Will be regular customers. read more

Probably one of the BEST brunch spots I've been to. The food was honestly cooked to perfection! The waiters are great and attentive too! It's a bar/restaurant but feels very homey. Brought my nieces with me and they liked the food too. At first I was a bit confused when I opened the front door because it leads to the bar, but some patrons pointed us in the right direction to the dining room- VERY HOMEY! read more

Pretty nice little place, off the beaten track. With a nice bar, and a nice bunch of servers. The prices were a bit high but well worth it. Parking in the back makes it even better/ read more

I came to this restaurant with two of my other friends for brunch and none of us have ever been here before. We went at around 2 on a Saturday and was seated at the bar. It was a little loud inside due to a private party. The decor was very rustic which I liked. We got chicken and waffles, French toast casserole and egg in a hole with the short rib. Everything was fantastic. Even the complimentary cornbread. Better yet, the drinks are continuous during brunch!! The bartender was friendly as well. We would definitely come back here. Everything was delicious and I'd love to try the other menu items!! read more

I came to river mill for a brunch with a party of 20 and the waitress was very attentive to our party. We all opted for the bottomless which was ONLY $10 a head with the purchase of an entree. You have the option of sipping on mimosas, screwdrivers, bloody mary's, beermosas, bellinis, bloody maria's or mellow mary's while you dine in. If thats not enough to get you to check this place out keep reading. Your meal starts with COMPLIMENTARY cornbread that was hands down the BEST cornbread that i've ever had in my life. The edges were perfectly crisp and the inside was soft, almost a creamy consistency. For my meal I ordered the egg in a bowl, which was raved about on other posts and it did not disappoint. The brioche bun was topped with melted cheese, short rib that easily pulled apart, a fried egg, and gravy. The gravy was fantastic and really added something special to the dish. Another crowd favorite was the french toast casserole: Creme Brûlée Custard, Toasted Pecans, Maple Syrup. It's hard enough to please one customer, pleasing 20 is nearly an impossible task but River Mill succeeded!! Not one complaint was made. Don't miss out on this affordable and delicious spot for brunch! I look forward to dining in to check out their lunch and dinner menus. read more

Fabulous food! delicious and for reasonable prices ! Even my kids like the food here, which is rare

Friendly staff and absolutely great BARTENDERS!! The wait was about 20 minutes or so but I didn't get impatient waiting by the bar and talking with the bartenders. I asked him to make me something sweet, but not too sweet. He made a yummy drink, but I had to ask him to add more juice (light weight here :)) Once we sat we enjoyed the wings and the tacos! so good! The service was fast and attentive. We plan on adding in to our list of LI spots. read more

River Mill - Yummy and gluten free - New American Near Me - Lynbrook, New York

River Mill has been a spot I frequent weekly since it's inception and you should strongly consider putting it in your restaurant rotation. Lunch and dinner menus are strong with a pleasant blend of old staples and new innovations. Brunch is fantastic as well and my vote for best in the area. Bar area is welcoming and perfect for watching sports year round. Beers on tap are always good and cold and tap lines are clean. New signature cocktails are a welcomed addition. Service is always outstanding and beyond friendly. They go out of their way to be helpful, accommodating, & pleasant no matter the day or the circumstances. Moreover, they have done a great job adapting to Covid protocols and making customers feel comfortable and safe. People always say I eat at the same places but why change the record if it's always at river mill I know I'm getting good food, having good drinks, & getting good service and in my book that's aces.

My family has a tradition that whenever a cousin turns 21 we take them out to dinner and drinks. Each one has been at a different location. Each has been great for one reason or another. The latest was here at River Mill, and the great part here was the food. Wow, the food was SO good. My brother got the pork chop, and asked me to taste it so that I could be jealous. Luckily for me, even though his was definitely the best pork chop I had ever tasted, I was not jealous. I had the French Onion burger, which was a genius combination of a burger with the top of a bowl of french onion soup. So good. The service was attentive, and all ten of us were impressed. read more

Have had multiple great meals here, lunch dinner and brunch. ate here today with a friend outside and it was not only delicious and covid safe but fully accessible for all ( easy for wheelchair and walker users to navigate). The patio was beautiful in this warm day and all the food was delicious. Huge portions. read more

Love this place. Really good food. Guinness on tap. The service is great. Go! Try it!!!

Love the river mill! My favorite is the Holy Buffalo Shrimp--so delicious!! Highly recommend!

The food here is good for what I remember from past times dining here. However, my family and I came for Mother's Day with a 3:00 reservation. Another reservation that was made before ours came in and they had 13 people instead of the 7 they had made the reservation for. Rather than honoring our reservation, we were knocked back 45mins for another person's mistake. Not a great move..... Open to try again, but hoping this prevents the same thing to happen to someone else read more

My husband and I went here to celebrate his birthday. It was our first time here and the food was delicious. We sat in the bar area and since there was no waiter staff available we had to walk to the bar to get our menu, place our order and get our drinks. They did bring the food out to us. read more

River Mill is a real winner. The Owner -Chef Frank is a wonderful chef, and his food is Tops. The service is also great as are their Bartenders. I come here very often and I've never had a bad meal. So Trust me and give it a try, you'll thank me. read more

Stopped in on a Wednesday night with g/f. I cannot give a full review as we only had drinks and an appetizer. We ordered the RM Hissy Fit Dip. Contained Bacon Fig Jam, Cheese, Toasted Almonds. It was delicious but left us wishing for a larger portion. For drinks we each ordered a jalapeno margarita! YUMMY!! You cannot go wrong with tequila! The other cocktails sounded intriguing. Total cost was $40.00 Hope to get back to sample an actual dinner!!! read more

The food here continues to be amazing. The first time I came here the food caught me off guard. GREAT TASTE and at a reasonable price. I've only come here on Saturdays for their bottomless mimosas, and even those are great. Service: Amazing, they are busy on weekends but they still give you good service. Always friendly!! Food: Good tasting food, very flavorful, comes out fresh! Their cornbread is priceless. The egg bowl comes with a tender and delicious tasting short rib. The chicken and waffle is very good. The waffle is like dessert lol. The chicken is grilled and the sauce around it is great!! I've also tried the Maple Mustard Salmon and Shrimp Rockefeller entree here and they were great!!! The salmon was so well done, the shrimp Rockefeller was good, shrimp was huge but the cheese sauce was a little weird for me. Still good! Ambiance: Nice scenery outside if there is space available. The inside is nice and cozy, the decor fits the place. Overall great and I love that it's right in the neighborhood! read more

My absolute favorite restaurant! The food is delicious! The servers are amazing. I especially enjoy when Rebecca takes care of us. She is always friendly & helpful. All other staff is as well! The food never disappoints! The owner Frank is always on hand to answer any menu questions or just to say hi. He really lets his customers know he cares about us. Covid Note: Everyone wears their masks! They do have outdoor dining with heaters but be afraid to sit inside! The tables are so spread apart! It is social distancing at its finest! Makes you feel extremely safe while dining there. Check it out. Between safety precautions set up, amazing staff & DELICIOUS food, you WONT be disappointed! read more

Such a great weekend brunch place. Brunch ends at 3pm on the weekends. When we came in it was pretty crowded and our party of 3 had to be seated at the bar instead of a table, which worked out. The food was absolutely delicious. We tried the French toast casserole, brick chicken and the short ribs all from the brunch menu. All 3 were delicious. Their complementary corn bread was amazing as well. They also offer $10 bottomless drinks on their brunch menu. Friendly staff. Will come back again! read more

We will become regulars for brunch at this place. The service was excellent and the outside patio is spacious, beautiful and has plenty of seating. It was packed when we arrived around 1:45pm on a Sunday and it's easy to see why. My wife and I ordered the short rib bowl, the frittata and the French toast. The meal was truly exquisite, with the French toast dish being unlike anything we've ever had before. They also had an unlimited brunch drink option for $15, which seems quite reasonable. My only complaint is that they don't have any non-dairy milk options, which is surprising. But obviously not that big of a deal (unless you're vegan). No complaints. We will definitely be back and now we know that we don't need to venture far from home to find amazing brunch. We will probably give them a try for dinner during the week, as well. Overall amazing experience. read more

Chill spot, nice vibe. Some pretty good beers on tap. Excellent wings, very good burger, overall very good and creative gastropub American fare. Service was good, too. I'd like to return for brunch but this is a spot to add to the rotation when you want a place that has a little bit of everything. read more
