We made a reservation to try the new speakeasy bar in Patchogue. Beautiful decor inside, love the hidden look it has from outside. We were seated in a great spot, but we all sunk in the chairs and couch. When it came time to eat, it was awkward to try and sit up properly. I feel like the cocktail menu was very limited. I went with the Ginger Snap because I'm a tequila girl and it was good, they even made it strong. We ordered apps; Oyster Rockefeller, Thai crispy calamari, and a Tuna tartare. They were all delicious, the tuna tartare was my favorite, but the chips were a little on the burnt side. After that, service took a turn for the worst when more people started trickling in, especially when a group of around 8 showed up. It took a while for our waitress to get back to us since she had to take orders from every table. One waitress on a Saturday evening.... She disappeared a lot, but we understood and we were patient. Our orders were finally taken, but we had to continue waiting a very long time for the food to get back to us. We sat there for a while with empty cocktail glasses and no more sparkling water... we finally got our second round of drinks, but one drink did not make it back before the entree. The waitress apologized and when she came back with the drink, she stated that the bar was sorry and that they would give us a discount due to it being forgotten. I ordered the salmon and it was delicious, a little undercooked, but I'm ok with that. The risotto was phenomenal, one of the best I've had, very flavorful. I did clean my plate. We then ordered dessert, and it also took a while for it to comeback. Now I keep saying this because we were there for a whole 2.5 hours! It wasn't our fault, the kitchen wasn't pumping out the plates fast enough and the waitress was always MIA because she was attending the entire place. The only reason they get 3 stars is because how slow it all was, and also because at the end, the manager or hostess or whoever, stated "I'm not trying to be rude, but there's a 2 hour limit here". Excuse me, we were not trying to be there for more than 2 hours. It looked like another party of 5 or 6 was trying to get seated, and they wanted to give our spot to them. Not sure if we'll be back. read more
