Had our first dinner there last night and will def return! The French onion soup was delicious and…read morebountiful. My wife had the salmon and I had the jumbo shrimp risotto. Both were excellent! The risotto had asparagus and bits of shrimp in it. The salmon was tender and tasteful. Our friends had clams casino and halibut, which they loved! For desert we ordered the Silk 'n' Satin, which is cheesecake with a "dome" of chocolate mousse. And they meant a dome! It was one of the best deserts I have ever had and the 2 of us had trouble finishing it! Prices were all very reasonable for such quality French food. The waitstaff (all women) were knowledgeable and attentive. And both the owners (mother and daughter) stopped by to talk to us to make sure we were enjoying our experience. The restaurant setting itself is nice with calming, soft colors. Highly recommend!!

The seats are wooden and some found them uncomfortable. The food was good. The striped bass was really tasty. The spinach was delicious with a hint of garlic. The au poivre sauce was a little too salty (2 people stated) but not inedible. If you are the type that orders salads or appetizers then you might be ok with a long wait. Some in our group were painfully hungry by the time entrees arrived.

Cute, cozy, unique cafe in Selden. The staff there were…read morefriendly and helpful in explaining some Menu items. There is a QR code at the tables and they prefer you to order at your table, however we had questions and some items were not on the QR menu so we had to go to cashier and ask questions. There is lots of seating on the floor on cushions and mattresses, but there are also several chairs. When you enter you have to take your shoes off, which is not an issue, just wish they had a bench you could sit on to take off your shoes and put your shoes on afterwards, as that was difficult for me , as I didn't have slip ons. That's my only negative. Food was delicious . I tried a new beverage and the pistachio cake- both delish! It is located in a strip mall, so lots of parking. Prices reasonable

I was looking for something new & different and saw this place, off I went. It's a cozy, exotic…read moremiddle eastern vibe. Pretty lamps, carpets, chairs, cushions & poufs for seating. Tons of teas to pick from & some sweets as well. The young man working there was friendly. We placed our order & found a table. They do request you remove your shoes, hey I do it at home so no problem for me. I enjoyed a chai tea with rose & cardamom. It was very good, had a kind of floral light hot chocolate taste. I'm sure it's fun at night, I believe you can get teas for a group. If you want to try something different I suggest you try them!

Our waitress was so sweet and positive and checked on us quite frequently and also did not rush us out. Enjoyed our sandwiches and the coconut cake for dessert.

The Secret Garden Tea Shoppe is a venue I frequent at least once every season, which I highly…read morerecommend all to do. The owner decorates beautifully and meaningfully for each and every occasion. Whether it's fall, spring, summer, Valentine's Day, Holiday Season, or even once I was there the day of a royal wedding, you can guarantee that every little detail will be attended to. Located in the heart of Port Jefferson, a short walk from the large municipal lot and ferry, this tea shop is where you want to go. They offer full tea service, a royal tea (soup and sparkling cider added), individual ala carte sandwiches, and an array of desserts. I always get the tea service, which comes with a bottomless pot of tea. They have so many teas to choose from, including decaf and herbal versions. During the holidays, they update their tea list to reflect more seasonal teas. Service is always impeccable, the food is always fresh, and there is a consistency to this place that rivals many. I've had tea service at "those" expensive hotels in NYC, and I must say, Secret Garden tops it for me.

I'd be able to calmly focus on work knowing my kids were safely in front of me. Additionally, this great concept wouldn't be complete if there wasn't a fabulous cafe inside. I did try a few drinks and found most of them a bit on the sweet side for my taste, but the UBE latte totally met my needs. Smooth, flavorful, and not super sweet. I would go back just for that. I also felt the pricing was quite fair. Id probably opt to come her over Starbucks.

I love finding new favorites so close to home! After a few tastings at LI Salted Spirits…read moredistillery, we took a quick walk into town for dinner at Cafe Joelle and wow, the atmosphere alone caught me off guard. Such a gorgeous, hidden gem vibe with plenty of seating whether you want the bar or a table. The food was genuinely unforgettable, we were still talking about it days later. If you love bold flavor with a little heat, this is your spot. We got the Bruschetta (grilled herb crostini, mozzarella, plum tomato compote), P.E.I. Mussels (chorizo, cherry pepper, riesling white wine), Wasabi Calamari (sesame crusted, spicy soy ginger sauce, wasabi aioli), Shrimp Mezze Rigate (pesto, sun-dried tomato, asparagus, breadcrumb, ricotta salata), and Cherry Pepper Pork (pounded, breaded, pan-fried, lemon cherry pepper sauce, melted parmesan, green beans, roasted potato), every dish was packed with flavor. Don't sleep on dessert either: a chocolate shell you crack open to reveal mousse inside, we were fighting to get the last bites! Bonus: they carry LI Salted Spirits cans and cocktails right at the bar, so you can keep the tasting going. Plenty of parking, super friendly staff, and a great spot for everyone. Highly recommend, ten out of ten!

I was served by Queen who was an absolute sweetheart and made sure my order was made to perfection (see heart drink for reference). The other diners also looked very happy and seemed to be enjoying the beautiful decor as much as I did(I tried not to photograph them). It honestly felt like I was transported to Brooklyn. And the sandwich and Bom drink I got were enough to still have me thinking about it as I'm writing this post. I went during the day but cannot wait to go later to see how this place is in the evening. 11/10 for Roto!!

Customer service was fast and friendly, and the decor felt modern and chill. When I got home, I was a bit surprised by the size of the sandwich, especially for $19 and change. Being from Florida, I'm used to much larger Cuban sandwiches, so I had hoped to split it. That said, the flavors were solid and everything tasted fresh. I'd definitely consider stopping in again, especially to dine in and enjoy the atmosphere. While prices are on the higher side, it seems like a nice spot to sit down and take in the vibe.

After eating at a nearby restaurant my girlfriend and I went to the village cheese shop as a…read morerecommendation from someone we were sitting next to. Upon entering there were no other customers in the store. The store was neat and clean. A blonde woman standing at the back counter looked up from her phone at us and then went back to her phone. As another couple walked in someone else came out from the back and greeted the new couple. We worked our way back to the woman at the back counter and inquired about a cheese board. She told us we could order one and the amount of time it would take to have one made. We asked if they did cheese boards to sit and have to eat now, and I quote, "No we are not a cafe, we don't serve food in store like that". As we continued around the shop many more couples entered the store. We worked our way back around to the cheese counter to place our order. Once it was our turn the blonde woman, who originally snubbed us as we walked in, asked what we needed. As we started to order she asked us to hold on and called another girl from the back to continue helping us. The other girl was very friendly, and informational and even made some recommendations. We purchased a number of cheeses and other accoutrements. As we were checking out, a couple walked in and asked if they did fondue. The blonde woman was friendly and set them up at a table in the back to have fondue for 2. We proceeded to take our items and leave. If you like Brie you need to try the Truffle Brie! It is absolutely delicious! So much so that my girlfriend went back in to buy more for guests we were having over the next day. The cheese and the selection is great. The shop is cute and clean and apparently depending on who you are or who you're with, depends on how you will be treated.
