Normally, I don't start a review on a negative but after we left and counting up all the missteps, I felt off. My wife is more forgiving, she liked the Frito Misto and Bolognese. It's hard to believe this was a BBQ spot a few years ago. The glass garage door is still in place, back in the day it was enjoyable during the spring. There's a reason why it's called Sparrow Cocktails. I ordered the Smoked Old Fashioned. Made with Angel's Envy Bourbon and wood smoked chips, this was a great cocktail before dinner. The Frito Misto had a delicate coating, it wasn't overly battered. The green dipping sauce served on the side was bland. It didn't add to the dish and was thin. The Malfalde Bolognese was a hearty portion, we were able to share this large dish between the two of us. Made with beef, veal and pork and simmered in San Marzono tomatoes, this entree satisfies all my pasta cravings. I was looking for some grated cheese, none was offered.. The Back Sea Bass special, IMHO we should have passed. My wife asked about bones and was told they de-bone the fish table side. What was served to us was a fish that was cooked well but was full of small pin bones. We passed on dessert, it was time to go. an expensive meal that doesn't warrant a return visit.

The ambiance was very nice, and the service was attentive and friendly. Unfortunately, the food was…read morenot a favorite for our family. Overall, we found many of the dishes to be overly salty and oily. I ordered the rib sandwich and was disappointed because it wasn't what I expected. I anticipated an actual rib sandwich, but it appeared to be more like shredded beef and didn't have the flavor or texture of ribs. My son ordered the stuff Nutella French Toast and ended up sending them back. The eggs he was served were also quite salty. My daughter did not enjoy her burger, which was unusually thick and difficult to eat as prepared. My wife finished her meal, but she did not find it particularly enjoyable and felt the portion size was too small for the price. I think part of the issue may have been the limited Father's Day brunch menu. Had there been more options available, we might have found dishes that better suited our tastes. Additionally, dessert was not included in the package, which was somewhat disappointing. While the atmosphere and service were definite positives, the food did not meet our expectations. Based on this experience, I'm not sure if I would return.

The place was set up beautifully and the private room was cozy. They selected a set menu which comprised of a choice of appetizer, a salad, a main course along with desserts, wow! The Mediterranean salad that I had, tasted fresh and it was nicely presented. The slider appetizer was a bit dry for my taste. However the lobster cream pasta main dish more than made up for it. The tiramisu finale was very nice. So all in all I think that the execution of the meal combined with an attentive and friendly staff makes it a success. I would definitely return here when visiting Garden City!

Once we sat down, we asked to switch tables, and they were very accommodating. To start, we ordered the house bread, which was surprisingly one of the best dishes served; the clams; and the tagliolini. The baked clams and house bread are musts in my opinion. I got the chicken parmesan and the pappardelle bolognese for dinner, and they absolutely nailed these dishes. An outstanding job on the chicken parmesan; even the most basic of dishes here are surprising. Then for dessert we ordered the olive oil cake, which came with this frothy cream on top, which was definitely worth saving room for. My only complaint about my experience would be that during one part of the night the waiter did not come to our table for a good 25 minutes, and I had to wave down a different waiter since we were waiting to put in our dinner orders. Overall, though, a wonderful experience and definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Long Island.

We were seated near the outdoor section and had a nice view of the fire pit. For starters, we shared the flavorful grilled octopus with potato, sun-dried peppers, & olives. The Fritto Misto was a bit salty but the salmon bite I tasted was perfect!! It paired well with our arugula salad. Our entrees were cooked to perfection! Both hubbies had the Ribeye, my girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed her spaghetti with lobster and she said it matched the quality in Italy! I enjoyed my jumbo shrimp and spinach meal.

If you have an insatiable desire for the best Mexican food around, grab your sombrero, and stop by El Sol Gl, on Old Country Rd., Mineola. Upon entering, you'll be serenaded by Mexican music, and have the feel that you've been transported to Mexico, and will be dining at a local Cantina. As soon as we sat down, warm homemade tortilla chips, along with homemade salsa were placed on the table. We've had this combo at many Mexican restaurants, but none that even came close to this. My wife ordered a glass of red sangria that she absolutely loved. After devouring the above, we order a chicken quesadilla for an appetizer. Once again this simple dish, far exceeded our expectations. For entrees my wife ordered a steak & chicken combo fajitas, accompanied by rice refried beans, guacamole, sour cream along with homemade tortillas. I ordered the enchiladas mixtas. This dish consisted of 3 separate enchiladas, one each of chicken, shrimp & steak topped with 3 types of salsa, & melted oaxaca cheese. The combination of textures & flavors were beyond the taste of any enchiladas I've ever experienced. We passed on dessert, but they have a number of homemade items highlighted by tres leches cake. I also would like to give a special thanks to Romeo for his outstanding service & recommendations. They have various daily specials such as Taco Tuesday, 1/2 price margaritas, and a weekend brunch. If you want to enjoy a homemade Mexican meal you don't have to fly to Mexico, just get in your car and head for El Sol Gl. The meal will be Fantistico!!

Started off with the empanadas and ceviche. Both were excellent and super flavorful. For entrees, we had the pollo relleno, steak ala Jalisco, el sol signature steak and the fajitas mixtas. Pollo relleno was a unique dish with great sauce. The steak ala Jalisco was fine, but the el signature steak definitely stood out with its marinade. All of their meals are great value for the price but the stand out was the fajitas. The mixtas offers steak, chicken and shrimp. We all ordered these on our 2nd visit. For me, the steak and shrimp were the best. We finished the meal with churros and tres leches. While it was delicious, $19 for the dish was as a bit high. Overall, this place is one of our new favorites. My fiancée had left his credit card and we appreciated their honesty about it. Will be back soon to try some of their weekly specials.

We had the sweet chili wings and the chicken quesadilla for apps and were quite happy. The food takes a while to come out but the atmosphere makes up for it. I had the fried chicken bc of reviews on this page. I encouraged others to get it as well. I was disappointed however. My companion got wings and legs. I got no wings, 1 leg and random breast pieces. It was hard to find the chicken under a gloppy slaw and bed of tostones. I didn't eat much because it seemed like a tower of meh. Some other companions ordered the seafood soup and were very happy so I ordered the beef soup to go. I was underwhelmed with the flavor and had to use the provided lime and hot pepper sauce. The beef was quite chewy and tough and not what I expected in my soup. The provided rice was a bit too al dente however the flavor was good. We probably got an off day for the restaurant so I can't knock them too hard. As I stated the apps, the bread and the service was excellent.
