Vintage Prime Steakhouse

Reviewed By AniaSzt

Ok, so when you pull up to the place..... like some other reviewers mentioned, you might be surprised on how the restaurant looks... not as inviting as others, and definitely on the smaller side. But that's why we like it! It's not a gorgeous looking, big prime steak restaurant! But the food... was amazing!! Our steaks were cooked to perfection!!! The meat was delicious. Sides were big so def share. The manager was great and made sure everything was prepared to our liking. Def make a reservation. Limited seating and only a handful of larger tables. This is by far one of our favorite steak house restaurants!

Javier's Cafe

Reviewed By Travel50StatesUSA

Met a friend for lunch today at "Javier's Café". The food was fabulous!! I couldn't find anything on the menu I didn't like!! Finally decided on the "Ovengold Turkey Sandwich", with a side of French Fries. They offer both Breakfast and Lunch from 6am through 3pm, the hours they are open, so if you want French Toast, eggs, or pancakes for lunch, this is your place!! The service was friendly, and efficient. The restaurant is small in size, and was full at the time we were there, so it does have a tendency to be somewhat noisy. Parking is easy, as there is ample parking in the rear of the restaurant, and an entrance from the parking lot, as well. I will definitely be going back soon, and I recommend it highly to others!!

Lake Grove Diner

Reviewed By ThereGoHappyPeople

We were delighted to find Lake Grove Diner and we enjoyed a quick, filling dinner without any fuss. Portions here are massive and of course the selection of items is seemingly endless. You can get just about anything. ha. I can't say the items are the most gourmet, but I believe the food was very fresh. Service was great....the staff works very hard. I would go back in a heartbeat,

Great little breakfast place. Love the Vibe. The black tea was really good. The veggie wrap was delish as well as the breakfast platter. The potatoes and bacon was cooked perfectly. I definitely would come back. They have a great menu for vegetarians and vegans. They also have many flavors of tea, coffee drinks and beer on tap.

Reviewed By Elizabeth R

Nice place to meet some friends for a drink. There are small tables by the bar to enjoy a meal as well. We usually sit there and split a meal as it's more than enough for two. The drinks are tasty and the service is very good. Will definatly go back another day.

Went last Friday night 4/26/19 to Bahama Breeze. Ate at the bar. Food was very good.Bar service was quick and friendly as was the food service. Very nice atmosphere with music that doesn't sound like MTV !!!The Lobster Mac & Cheese, however, somehow forgot to stop at the Lobster station andsubsequently seemed to be missing in action.

Was very busy when we arrived and told a 25 minute wait however was much shorter than expected. Our order was taken promptly but the food was extremely slow at coming out. When it arrived it was a decent sized serving and tasted okay however my sandwich was very soggy on the bottom.Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry for your experience at our restaurant. We hope you can give us another try. Next time, please let our staff or managers know if anything can be improved so we can do our best to make it right while you are dining with us. Thanks again for your time.

Vintage Steak House

Reviewed By 798janee

Steak was perfectly cooked, sides sublime and the desserts were pretty great too. Classically elegant steakhouse vibe. We enjoyed the superb professional service.The server could have been more knowledgable about dish ingredients, but his manner more than compensated and he went the extra mile to find out what we needed to know; our party regularly puts wait staff through extra paces due to various food allergies (not because we think it's fun to test the staff like some diners I've seen do, such boorish behavior me no end.) We'll come back. And have the porterhouse again. It's that good.

Mosaic

Reviewed By dylanboyd2007

Chef Johnathan Contes delivered a sophisticated 9 course menu with help from our host who was extremely instrumental in not only hosting it but coordinating with the different wine flights, (16 bottles in total.)Dinner began with a dorado crudo with an avocado brulee, red onion ponzu finished with a peanut sesame sauce. From there we went to a very unusual escargot tempura with chanterelles, peaches, bed and yellow beets, summer truffles accompanied by a roast corn-pistachio pesto with watercress.Course # 3 was a tuna sashimi, with heirloom tomato gazpacho, hard boiled egg, watermelon, pine nut crumbs with a caponata vierge - My personal favorite of the night! Next up was a very unusual pastrami spiced sweetbread "Reuben," fresh pretzel, along with a rhubarb mustard and a strawberry horseradish.The sweetbread was followed by my 2nd favorite presentation which was a venison carpaccio along with pickled wagyu tongue, shaved foie gras, and a cherry fennel confit with capers. This dish was then followed by a lemon sorbet with chartreuse :-(Now we are getting to what was to be the star of the night a whole suckling roast pig with chilli relleno, zucchini, burnt almond along with a saffron marmalade and a sofrito hollandaise, an interesting dish to say the least.The last 2 courses were both of the desert genre; first was a ricotta banana tart with pistachio ice cream and marshmallow, This was followed by a ripened chevrot, with a fig and a smoked coffee foam topped with balsamic which was a nice conclusion to a very eclectic meal. Kudos to our host and to Chef Jonathan and staff.

Maureen's Kitchen

Reviewed By AllanNCynthia

What a find! only open for breakfast and lunch, this "cow themed" local favorite is incredible. Family managed, outstanding quality and service, large portions, and gourmet touches throughout the menu, presents the best of the old diner days and today's high quality standards. Whatever can be homemade is and the efficiency is really something to observe. You need some time to enjoy this busy spot and there's enough interesting things to notice while you wait. Even a motorcycle decorated in cow patterns. Couldn't believe our first visit, had to buy a couple of Maureen's cow coffee mugs, and then brought some grandkids a few days later. Come hungry and better bring cash - no credit cards here.
