This is a new restaurant that just opened in downtown Riverhead at the site of the old Joe's Garage. When I heard that the owner was the former cook at the Triangle in Eastport I was excited because I always liked the food. I can only speak right now for their cowboy burger. It was excellent, the meat was fresh and juicy and plenty of it. One of the best I've had in a long time. The fries were not greasy and had a good potato taste. And the price right at $11. The menu includes steak and chicken, half duck, and seafood. And the prices are very reasonable. 9 different types of burgers and also 2 pasta dishes. We were impressed and will go back again to sample something else. The staff was very friendly and it's nice that you don't have to travel to Route 58 to eat. I wish them well as this will be a good addition to downtown Riverhead.

We were planning to grab a quick bite after some putting practice and were very pleasantly surprised. The food has come a long way. The signature salad with candied pecans was terrific, the scallops were sweet and succulent with crispy bacon wrapped on the outside. We both ordered pasta - the ravioli were very tasty, and the penne ala vodka arrived al dente with a savory, creamy vodka sauce. Generous portions, great value for the quality. Beer was ice cold. Have decided to hold a small business dinner here this week because the food was so improved. I believe the waitress said that there was a new chef. Hope he stays. Attentive, friendly service!

Stonewalls is the Club house for the Woods golf course. The Woods is a beautiful challenging 18 hole course with treed roughs and sort of narrow fairways. So its a good place to be and play. Surprisingly the restaurant at Stonewalls holds its own where one would think it wouldn't have to shine. It does. The grill room is for casual dining on bar food but here its elevated to much better than average, i had the original style mussels in a light cream broth. At that Tasting g the mussels were amazingly plump and fresh. Hubby had the onion soup starter which is worth a trip to try. I would travel 35 minutes to get it. No fake oxo broth here. It was carefully crafted and authentically French. He said it was the best cheese on top ever! Wait staff was great. Grill room a bit noisy with all the folks at Happy hour. Big guy ()(hubby) had a Cobb salad which he thought the dressing too wet and watery, which it was but I believe the. Basic ingredients were good someone just goofed up. Next time we ate in the Main dining room and sat. At the window with a beautiful garden view. You could see across to the other golf course The Links at Cherry Creek. This time BG (big guy) had the onion soup which was equally excellent and the roasted half Long Island duck on a beautiful hunk of wild rice with a nice orange glaze also some delicious string beans. The plate was a very ample portion and it was delicious. It was not plated like Eric Ripert or Jean Georges would but it was really tasty and crisp. I picked. I had the mussels again cause I liked them so much. If your on the North Fork if you go for golf or if you live around the area definitely enjoy the food and ambiance. Beware there could. BE rowdy golfers in the bar. Theydeserve to let loose its a tough course. The have a Sunday brunch which we will try soon and a prix fix Thursday night. & 30. With dessert

Diggers is your usual pub restaurant. Nice casual atmosphere and good food. We ordered baked clams for an appetizer. The clams were good but they were served in an aluminum shell. I would have preferred a real clam shell. Our entrees were the tuna salad and fish and chips. The fish and chips were good but greasy...the grease was dripping when I picked up the fish..they should have drained the fat from the fish before placing it on the dish. Both were good and the fries were good and temperature hot. We would visit this restaurant again. My only complaint was after the waitress gave us the check, she never returned to take my credit card, so I gave it to another waitress. This is the second restaurant in this area where the waitress doesn't return to run the credit card through for payment. The other restaurant is Perabell (see my review for that restaurant) just across the street from Diggers. Other than that everything was good.
