The hostess was very cordial. They had live music inside so we opted for outside for the lake view and good weather. The drinks were great, there were vegan options. The waiter was very helpful in giving us options to modify. We were served promptly, food was great. A server was going around giving everyone a piece of bread at a time. Rather than put a little basket with four pieces per table, probably would save time any effort. I would absolutely go back, it was a good date spot. read more

Went here for my friends birthday and felt that the food and service were underwhelming. For the good: Thyme is a cute restaurant in a nice location and the drinks were nice and strong. The underwhelming and not so great: we had to ask for bread to be served and it wasn't going to be brought over otherwise, the restaurant was VERY hot and when we asked if they could put on the air we were given attitude by the waiter- It wasn't until we flagged down the lovely woman at reception who was happy to put the air on for us.I felt like the food was just bland. Nothing was cheap here (as expected in Roslyn) so for the price and experience I felt the need to write a review. And let me just say that I have absolutely no problem paying up for a nice meal. I probably will make this a one and done. read more

Brunch with friends celebrating us. Reservations were done. We arrived on time, we were all looking forward to have scones as per advertised, we were disappointed to be told that they ran out of scones. Don't understand why if the reservations give a pretty good number of people expected. Downer While ordering drinks an one of us inquired about the Mimosa if there was another flavor to what the server answered no just orange, puzzled my friend asked again and with a condescending tone the server answered that Mimosas were made with oranges. There is a beauty when mixologists experiment and create Mimosas with other fruit, eg pears ... but we left it alone. We enjoyed our brunch. Thyme is a quaint eatery. Nice ambience not only for the decor but the location by the water. Now, one the main reason I will not return is because there are no restrooms on the first floor for handicapped patrons. The only bathroom is on the second loor with about 10 steps to climb. read more

The food is excellent and the atmosphere is warm and homey. They are such a great supporter of the community and we love them.

This time at Thyme I tried their Braised Short Ribs with Papardelle pasta served over Ratatouille (mixed veggies) and under Parmesan cheese. Very well made with a slight kick (of spice) in the ratatouille, great combination of flavor between the soft juicy plentiful meat (like boiled flanken or brisket), the long broad pasta, and fresh parmesan cheese. However, didn't enjoy what seemed like slightly stale small dinner rolls (one per person). Also, loved their decaf cappuchino. We arrived 6:00 PM on a Saturday night and for the next hour conversation with our friends was easy and it was less crowded. By seven, it not only got more crowded, but they also had a jazzy guitarist that only added to the noise. With tax & tip about $80 per person (including three appetizers and two mixed drinks for the 4 of us). read more

We are very thankful to have had our daughter's 1st Holy Communion lunch at thyme. Pam and the entire team created a beautiful and bountiful celebration lunch. Our guests raved about the food - how fresh, plentiful and delicious everything was. We had several guests with dietary needs (peanut allergy, vegetarian) and Pam helped us craft a menu to accommodate our guests. The team for the day (Sean, Jon, and Natalya) were so attentive and we appreciate the staff and everyone behind the scenes that made the afternoon a lovely memory for our family and guests. We look forward to more celebrations and returning again to thyme! read more

Lovely place for brunch. My eggs benedict was delicious, eggs perfectly poached. Everyone enjoyed their entrees and several plates were completely cleaned off . Menu offered large selection of brunch and lunch items. My mimosa was a bit weak but the Bloody Marys had a good amount of alcohol. The servers were friendly and attentive. Additional seating available on second floor. read more

We have gone for brunch and lunch here and the can't rave enough about the food, the location and the service and the lovely ambiance. We have gone as a couple and with larger groups and he experience has never disappointed us. Definitely recommend this for couples and families. read more

Great food and ambiance. A really nice American restaurant that serves some of the most amazingly delicious foods in the area. We were blown away by the crispy calamari, which features a much thinner batter layer that had a nice and crispy crunch, more akin to Japanese tempura. The portion sizes were fairly large too, and the amount of meat in the braised short rib papardelle was amazing. The creamy texture of the meat blended very well with the fresh parpardelle. The seafood paella is certainly a must get, with the rice layer really soaking up the flavour of the mussels and clams that fill the plate to the brim in both quantity and flavour. The seared tuna bowl was good too, but nothing too special when compared to the other dishes. Service was very good, and the window seating provides a nice view of the lake nearby! read more

Great spot in Roslyn, LI. Overlooks a pond which is very scenic. Service and staff was great. The drinks and food here were delicious. I would go with any of the cocktails but my bloody mary was on point. Food was the standout. Burger was juicy and flavorful. The cob salad was fresh and satisfying. And the crab cakes were a great appetizer. Would definitely come back again. Great in a group or for date night. read more

Went to Thyme for brunch today and enjoyed it! The $33 brunch deal is really reasonably priced and has many great options to choose from, which I appreciate with a deal like that. I had the smoked salmon benedict which was fabulous, and my friend had the chicken milanese sandwich which seemed good as well. They started us off with yummy scones before our meal, which was a nice surprise. The place was cozy with nice views of the water. Service was fine. I don't live super close, so I won't be running back to try it again, but brunch here was a good experience. read more

I went on Saturday 8/23/25. The food and service were fine. The problem was they told me at the time of the reservation they would have a little birthday cake and candle for my mother in law who was up from Florida. They never did anything and I could not say anything with her sitting at the table. I called them when I got home and they just said sorry for the miscommunication. I told them I do not get another opportunity to do this for a 92 year old woman. They just stayed silent. Left a sour taste for sure. read more

Food delish but very cramped if you are a party of 2. Only 1 good table for 2 against the wall. No one wants to sit on the banquette as you are in seatmate's lap. At 630 pm a few months ago it was very dark so everyone had to use their phone flashlight to read menu. Just ridiculous! Been going here for 12 years so I will only go when I can dine outside. I am suspicious of a restaurant that is so dark you cannot see your food. read more

Butternut Squash Soup- very creamy and good. Soup of the Day (pea) can't complain very good as well . Grilled Salmon Filet- great taste and well done salmon . Seared Diver Sea Scallops & Grilled Jumbo Shrimp- it's alright Bread and butter is normal. Place is packed and still run very fast and smooth . Place is organized and clean . Price $114 with tax -without tip read more

Joined a colleague for dinner here midweek. Had Martini Salmon bowl Shared strawberry shortcake I was so surprised how much I enjoyed the meal! Lots of options on the menu. Warm atmosphere, charming building and friendly competent staff. Came home to tell my husband that we need to go together! I hear they are known for their short ribs dishes, but I wanted salmon and I was soooo pleased with my dinner. Enjoy! read more

I've heard so many good things about Thyme and we were really excited about coming. The exterior has a whimsical feel to it...like you're going into a big fancy cottage for some out of this world meal. Parking lot is big and with a nice view too! We were in awe for about 3 minutes...until we walked in to the hostess and asked for a table for 4. She asked the typical "do you have a reservation?" and we said we were just walk-ins. And I swear the hostess rolled her eyes and exhaled a sigh (later confirmed by my party that they all saw it too). The restaurant was only maybe 1/4 full so I don't see why she scoffed the way she did. To Ms. Hostess, you are the front of the house...there's no reason for that. We tried to brush it off only to be reminded again by our waiter of what happened. We only had a minute to look at the menu when he returned and asked if we wanted anything to drink. We said we weren't ready...and he too scoffed! Then when he came to take our order, he looked annoyed, bothered, no eye contact, not even a fake smile... Regardless of those 2, we still enjoyed our meal. The eggs benedict was really good with a crispy hash as its base. The smoked salmon benedict sounded better than it wasted unfortunately. Portions were bigger than expected so we were really stuffed. Bloody Mary seem a bit watered down but I guess that's expected. At least add a piece of celery in it! I really wanted to give Thyme at least a 4 star rating...maybe even 5...but the bad attitude from the hostess and one of the waiter's left an impression on me. read more

The food was great! Definitely great portions for the price. I do however wish the staff was a bit more friendly so the rating will have to be four stars. read more

Wish we could give 1/2 Stars, REALLY SOLID place to eat! Accommodating and efficient service. Brunch for $28 provides a plethora of hearty, healthy options. We chose the BBQ Brisket and scrambled eggs with a Blood Orange Margarita (they use Don Julio Blanco.) We also had the Crabcake Burger, which is a pound of shellfish deliciousness with a Peach (Goya) Bellini ($7 J. Roget Champagne), which was a perfect combination. The Sirloin burger was topped with 2 slab-style bacon strips and Cheddar with crusted French fries, which adds more savoriness. You're started off with drop Sugar Biscuits, which are a bit dry but helped with whipped Cinnamon Butter and came the we had a side of the Strawberry spread that accompanies the regular biscuits. Another great time at Thyme! read more

Like usual we didn't have a lot of time to be able to seat and eat something from their entree menu. So when the hostess offered us a seat at the bar we were fine with it. The bartender was very friendly and nice. My wife had a glass of Cabernet and I had the New York Sour which is their version of a whisky sour (really good). The Blackened Salmon Tacos were delicious and so was the Crab cake. Can't wait to be back here for dinner, we will be sure to request a seat by the window for a water view. read more

Thyme is a great resturant. The location is great in Roslyn with the water view that adds to the experience. The menu has some unique dishes that I didn't expect. Like the duck tacos which were so good o forgot to take a picture. And the Brie and apple appetizer also wonderful. The lamb chops were done perfectly and both very different chicken dishes were perfectly cooked. The falafel bowl was interesting, good and very filling. A few things that bothered me. Not a big deal but if you're a fan of Charlie trotter's and have read his books you get it. For instance we had a great table in the corner with a nice view of the lake. And even with staff opening and closing the door it was a nice view. But the door is broken and has not been lit back together well. The jam is busted the knob plate is slanted and the window could use a cleaning. If you look around the resturant there are many of these little things that stand out as simple to fix things. Some of the posts across the apps complained about the hostess she was fine. Not sure why anyone has an issue. She's not overly friendly but we were greeted and seated promptly. Now for the service. Our waiter was great. Knew the menu well. Made some great recommendations and checked in regularly. read more

Everything from food to service is just superior! Cute little restaurant where on 1st floor they invite live band to play while people dining and we were seated on the second floor near fireplace. Not a big space but very cute cozy and warm atmosphere. Young waiters are all very friendly and attentive. The best service ever! First time I went with my friend and had pesto pasta and cod dish with seasonal vegetables, yummy!! All very scrumptious. Second time I went back with my family just two months ago to celebrate my birthday. We had tuna tartar for appetizers and had seafood pasta, cod dish / shrimp dish and grilled scallop and lots of cocktails too. Can't remember the name of each dish since it's been a while but all I can say is that I was not disappointed at all even at second time that all their dishes were so flavorful and had the special home-made touch to it that our family enjoyed so much. Keep up the great with Thyme. We will be back! read more

First time there. Great view of the pond, good parking. There are about 6 tables on the patio, we ate outside. It was still an early lunch crowd, we got seated right away. I hate the chairs! You are leaning all the way back. You have to move your chair all the way up to the table. The table by us (who got there about 10 minutes after us) got their food before us. My friend ordered a certain wine, they gave her the wrong one. They corrected it, though. I like the warm olive bread and butter they give you while you are waiting for the food. The avacado toast came with 2 sunny side up eggs and a salad. I will pass if there is a next time - burnt, so hard and crispy. So expensive! My friend ordered an omelette and a glass of wine. I had a lemonade and the avacado toast. Came to about $80 for 2 people! (including the tip) read more

One of those expensive restaurants where the quality and portion size live up to the price! I brought my family here for a birthday dinner, and it was the perfect setting; the restaurant is in a charming little house and we sat outside by the street (the lakeside tables were reserved, unfortunately). It's a chic, yet rustic place that's great for family or small gatherings. There is also an upstairs floor that is very dark, and filled with families. We ordered the lamb, the chicken, the marinated kabobs, and the side of the sweet potato fries. Everything was cooked to perfection, and my mom and I, who shared the lamb dish, were raving about how tender the meat was. It may have been some of the best lamb I've ever had. For dessert, we got the mango, lemon, and raspberry sorbet scoops, and they even placed a candle in it and sang for us. Our waiter started out strong, but when it came to bill time, he basically disappeared, and that irked me. They also accidentally charged us for teas that we never got, so always just review your bill before paying (here and everywhere!). read more

"Are you going to Scarborough fair? Parsely, sage, rosemary and Thyme" Timeless Lyrics from a song by Simon and Garfunkel's classic 70's hit. After having brunch here, Thyme made me think of this song, like a classic oldie that puts a smile on your face when you hear that song long begone after all these years. Thyme has a rustic charm and housed in a type of old style farm house from the turn of the century. The restaurant overlooks the Roslyn pond famous for duck watching. A quick side note. They have valet service just be on your toes as the entrance to the lot is on Tower Pl and you can easily miss it since the street is so short. If you miss it you will need to make a half mile loop around to get back due to the traffic patterns. We were here for Sunday brunch and due to Covid/CDC guidelines limited indoor and outdoor seating are available. Once we were seated they served us a warm scone with sweet butter. A nice way to wake up the palette so to speak. We ordered the steak with eggs and Thyme Benedict. We had the steak cooked medium rare and the eggs poached. The steak and eggs were delicious. They served potatoes and constructed a mini tower of sliced squash and tomatoes that was visually stunning and more importantly delicious. The Thyme Benedict uses a potato pancake in place of the English muffin. The potatoes pancakes was a thing of beauty! The potatoes had a crunchy exterior while the center was soft, a great balance of textures and a bit on the saltier side. The hollandaise sauce was yummy and was also served with mushrooms, ham and a vegetable tower of squash and tomatoes. The restaurant has 2 floors and the restrooms are upstairs. The service staff was nice and friendly and the private lot is perfect as the street parking is limited due to the layout of the streets. We are looking forward to come back here real soon, for me anytime is the right Thyme. read more

Food is very good. Drinks very weak very overpriced. People in charge are not a friendly at all. Ambience very crowded very close together.

Thyme is an adorable restaurant overlooking the lake. I would recommend sitting downstairs or in the patio, but not upstairs as the top level lacks the ambience that the main level has. Overall we had a decent experience for dinner. The kale and brussel sprout salad, as well as the calamari were delicious. I don't recommend the duck tacos - they were a bit bland. We were looking forward to the seafood paella and ordered it. but it was underwhelming. For dessert we tried the banana bread pudding, which was a bit dry and tasteless. Also, our waitress was not that attentive. Still, I'd definitely give this establishment another try in the near future. read more

Visiting from Florida and staying with my brother-in-law in Mill neck and meeting friends from Forest Hills. Read the reviews and chose Thyme for dinner. A charming old house overlooking a lake. We ere fortunate to have Leonard as our server, superb, attentive and very personable. Surprising we all chose starters instead starters and entrees. My wife loves crab cakes so she selected the CRISPY JUMBO-LUMP CRAB CAKE, Jicama & Apple Slaw, Chipotle Aioli , excellent. I opted for the SEARED RARE TUNA ,Seaweed Salad, Avocado Wasabi Aioli, Pickled Cucumber, Plum Sweet Soy Emulsion and also the CRISPY CALAMARI, Baby Arugula, Red Onion, and Peach Chili Vinaigrette . Both were superb. We also shared a WARM BAKED BRIE WITH APPLES, Puff Pastry, Organic Greens, Red Seedless Grapes, and Raspberry Coulis, very good. For desserts, tough choice but we chose the Peanut Butter Crunch Cake, unreal and Flourless Chocolate Truffle with Vanilla Gelato. Can't wait to come back to New York and dine at Thyme. read more

After driving by so many times, came here for dinner and sat outdoors. The staff was incredibly friendly, and WOW the food was phenomenal! The warm bread to start was delicious, and the baked Brie appetizer was completely out of this world.

Although reserving for brunch for 12 was complicated, the event went well with great service and food. They initially didn't allow us to reserve more than 10. No good reason given , had to wait to speak to mgr who didn't return call. After about 5 hrs, we called again and spoke to them and was given a hard time, but they eventually agreed to the addl 2 people. Well during brunch, the restaurant was not full and I'm perplexed why they weren't amenable. We could've added more people cause there was plenty of space. Oh well. Anyway, the birthday brunch went well. Food was yummy and the servers were very attentive. Intimate restaurant with a great picture window. Valet parking makes it easy to come. No live jazz on Saturday, todays brunch tho. read more
