Maggiano's Little Italy

Reviewed By ZERO-NONSENSE

Back yet-again for another enjoyable meal at Maggiano’s Garden City in the Roosevelt Field Complex off Old Country Rd in the Garden City area of Long Island NY.... for us, the re-assuring feeling that your profile is on-file complete with your food-allergies / special food-needs / preferences etc ... is so refreshing in not having to continually repeat all that at each re-visit; and, that the chef personally comes out each time to completely review & validate everything, is also a great reassurance. Each time the meal comes-out “tailor-made”, you can now set-aside your food-issue-concerns and just enjoy your company & great tasting meal served by such pleasant attentive Gracious Table Servers.Ahhh ... relaxing care-free enjoyable dining st decent prices.HOW SWEET IT IS‼️

We went to this restaurant based on the good reviews. Our experience was anything but good! We waited quite a while for a waiter. The wine I ordered never came. The caesar salad was just passable and had some unidentifiable "things" the size of a crouton but soft and tasteless. I had cavatelli bolognese which was meat and fat, tasteless. I just ate a little of it. The waiter couldn't understand why I didn't want to take the rest home. He did comp my desert because I didn't eat my main course. My wife had the whole wheat pasta with veggies. She said it was just ok, a lot of pepper. The desert was good. Very noisy, poor service, we won't be back

Passione Della Cucina

Reviewed By 26Joanne1946

We were celebrating my brother-in-laws 80th Birthday at home. We selected his favorite foods from Passione catering menu. Chicken Francase, rigatoni bolognese, eggplant rollatine, meatballs, sausage, chicken fingers, classic Caesar salad, chopped salad, with dressings on side. Garlic knots, and their Italian bread triangles. All 30+ relatives raved about the food. And they delivered, and set up. The cost for all the food was reasonable. My husband and I were very happy.

Had a great dinner with family last night. Shared a Beet salad, and baked cauliflower oreganata as appetizers since my sister and I are dieting and they were delicious and filling. Main courses included Orrechiette with sausage and broccoli rabe, branzino with shrimp with vegetables (asked for double portion instead of potatoes, along with the special of sea scallops with black risotto and roasted duck left us so full we couldn’t eat dessert even though they looked delicious. Dinner wines were also good. Service is impeccable, and it helps to go early as it’s a place to dine and enjoy conversation.

Spuntino Wine Bar & Italian Tapas

Reviewed By trekker27nyc

So disappointed! Our first visit to the Westbury location was when my family and I was invited here by my cousin in 2018. When we were seated, the chef came over to our table and I realized my cousin knew the chef. The chef recommended some items and we ordered some items. All was absolutely delicious! In January, we returned, for lunch, thinking we would have the same level of quality and service. My wife and I had the BBQ Pork and my son, the Spuntino Burger, along with other items. WE WERE NOT IMPPRESSED! There was hardly any pork on the bun and what was on it, was fat, which we removed. It was not only my BBQ Pork but also, my wife’s. The side or salad as we were told, was chick peas. Nothing wrong with the chick peas but the quantity looked like it was about 2 table spoons. For $14, one would expect a good quantity. As for my son’s burger, it was over cooked and dry. Overall, the food appeared to be put together in a hurry with whatever was left over. Visually, it was not impressive nor did it taste like there was some thought put into it. A restaurant should always have consistency in the quality of its food.Hello, we are disappointed to hear about your recent lunch visit with us as it certainly wasn’t up to our standards. If you’d please private message us your phone number our general manager would love to reach out!

They have an unrelenting devotion to the celiac community. And so, if you have celiac's, add a star. As far as an italian restaurant, they have all the usual fare expected at a neighborhood LI place. Although the food arrives from the kitchen piping hot, the recipes themselves are fairly bland, showing little distinctive flavor. Similarly to the wine list, no hidden italian (or italian american) gems hiding here. And unfortunately, servers are easily distracted by calls from others, and so don't focus on the table at hand. Desserts somewhat disappointed, again, nothing flawed, just nothing exciting. Bathroom was not clean.

I honour Anyone who can eat the entire portion of anything in this place! When I ordered the small version of the 'lunch special eggplant' I thought I'd happily plow thru to completion... instead I've got a 'dogie bag' for the next Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.... and it was fabulous food. Furrgetaboutit for the starters, and bring an appetite.

Vincent's Clam Bar

Reviewed By bigspyndoc1

Located in Carle Place for 3+ decades, the food is so consistently good with massive portions, it is always busy. Their seafood, pasta and especially their sauce (shipped all over the world) make this the favorite Italian/seafood restaurant for multi-generations. Their sauces (mild-med-hot) are just the best. The hot is too hot for me, but their mild and medium dance on my palate. Started with a beautiful caprese salad and fried zucchini wheels for the table. I had shrimp balls Parmigiana over angel hair with medium sauce, my brother ordered eggplant rollatini. As good as ever! It's my "go-to" whenever I visit L.I.
