Lighthouse diner is excellent. Matt c has been my waiter here since 2010. Great experiences. Quality foods all the time even at 3am after a night at mulcahys before my ride home with Wantagh taxi and airport service. Lighthouse diner is the only game in town for me!

Very large quantity; very ok quality. Went solo for late lunch. Service team was very nice in accomodating me between lunch and dinner. As I eat little, they offered me less expensive lunch menu. Plate was huge!! Unfortunately, besides heavy salt taste, food was nothing to write home about.Thanks for giving us a try, Hannah. We are sorry to see that you did not enjoy your food, as we put a lot of passion into our meals. We hope you'll give us a chance to change your mind in the future.

Can only comment on the traditional German dishes. Had an assortment among our table of four - Sauerbraten, Jaegerschnitzel, regular Wienerschnitzel, and Veal Goulasch - and they were all excellent. Ambiance and decor were great too - almost like being in the home country. Service was very good as well. As they say in the language - "Wunderbar".

i went two times for the first time within two weeks apart from each other. We got gift cards for xmas and wanted to use them. The first night we came I had a salmon with a lemon butter sauce,and I love salmon but I was VERY dry.Didnt complain, don't like to do that.the second time I came I had the smothered chicken and it was pretty good. The waiter forgot our butter for the buns and even though we asked him, he never bought it.I had two sides with my dinner ,ceasar salad and a cup of chilli. The chilli was just ok and the ceasar salads dressing could of used a little more zip. The chicken breast was pretty good and filling enough so it was fine. I don't know if I would say its a great restaurant,i still prefer applebees and chill;s as far as chain restaurants before it.I dont know if i would be coming back unless with a group and someone wanted to go.Its just ok

At the suggestion of our daughter we decided to give D.J.âs a go tonite. Weâve been driving buy for some time and this time we went in to sample the food. We both ordered the lobster roll to try on site. In my experience, seafood does not always travel well . We shared and here is our result. The lobster rolls are fairly priced and both included a generous portion of fresh lobster meat. We both favored the hot version but the cold version was very good. I am very impressed that neither was adrift in mayonnaise. These are the healthy version. Certainly, we will return to try other offerings. Tonite, they had soft shell crab, a personal favorite, but we came for the lobster and thoroughly enjoyed it. We shall return!

Big disappointment. Went there for lunch . Order two dinners and some soft drinks, one meal comes out ok , the second meal came about and when I started to eat the meal it was ICE COLD in side. Told the waitress , she apologized. It wasnât her fault , but when she took it back to the kitchen , you can here the kitchen staff say , STICK IT IN THE MICROWAVE AND PUT MORE GRAVEY ON IT. THEN THE MANAGER AND OLDER MAN COMES OUT WITH THE DISH IN HIS HAND. Told him to take the dish back and TAKE IT OFF MY BILL!!!, PORK HAS TO BE FULLY COOKED . WAKE UP IN THE KITCHEN. They really have to pay attention, someone can get extremely sick on uncooked foodHi there, Angiecetta.We apologize you had a poor experience at our House.

Found this gem based on TripAdvisor reviews and it did not disappoint. Small little restaurant on Bedford ave in a strip mall. The breakfast menu has alot of different variety of eggs, pancakes, omlettes that you wont find elsewhere. Everything was delicious and made from scratch. The portions were huge and we left stuffed! Prices were not bad and the service was amazing. We will be back!

Quite a few raved about this place. 8 pm on Thursday- packed, but we easily recognized the place is small. More than just burgers. Butternut squash soup very good. Tables are tight. Very noisy, brick walls, tin ceiling. Just ok. Nothing bad. Thanks for your feedback. We hope that you will give us another chance to change your opinion and improve on your last dining experience with us. Looking forward to the opportunity to serve you again soon!Sincerely,The Team at SNAPS
