1. Crabtrees Restaurant

Mediterranean/Continental/Restaurant
Reviewed By danfriedmanmd - Miller Place, New York
The village of Floral Park is home to many excellent restaurants, but Crabtrees, who gets its name from The Little Rascals, pleasantly surprised me. The restaurant was elegantly decorated for the holiday season, the bar area was lively but not too loud, and the management and service was superb. But I came here to eat, and eat i did! The food was outstanding. The chicken tenders came with two sauces, and left no annoying aftertaste. The fried mushrooms, calamari, and zucchini were delicious, and the tomato and mozzarella was better than I expected. My tilapia, accompanied by beets, vegetables, and mashed potatoes was delectable! And the steak was perfectly cooked. The carrot cake, apple tart, and chicolate mousse cake were as good as you can get. Don't pass this place up!

Whenever we are near A&S we have to stop for bagels! "Cash only" is the only challenge here -- the bagels are fresh, tasty, and generous. Love the asiago and everything bagels, especially.

I have visited this restaurant many times over the years. The food is great and this visit was no exception. We ordered the chopped baked clams as an appetizer and the veal parmigiana siciliano for our entree. Both meals were delicious. Make Cara Mia a definite stop and enjoy good Italian food. Manga!!

We ordered a Mocha cake and a vanilla/chocolate cake for a company party. The box was labeled "Mocha" but it looked and tasted nothing like a Mocha cake. Some thought it was a cake with a coffee taste, others thought it was a Tiramasu, but it was definitely not a mocha cake. Both cakes were terribly dry and lacked taste. It was quite a disappointment. We brought the cakes back and were hoping management would offer us two new cakes to replace these bad ones, or a store credit. Much to our surprise, they said No, there is nothing wrong with these cakes. What kind of customer service is that? Everyone at work threw the cake out. How good could these cakes actually be if after one taste they were all in the garbage. These cakes were not cheap. It cost $40 for the both of them. Obviously the management has no training in customer service and keeping the customer happy. We are a large corporation and this bakery just lost a lot of business that could have went their way if they did the right thing by either replacing the cakes with what was originally ordered or at least offered a store credit. That's a terrible way to do business, which they just lost ours. I do not recommend ordering from this bakery.

Have recently been back there for weekend brunch and dinner, and the experience is perfection each Tim. The wait staff is attentive and remembers the special requests that we have. They work with the chef to accommodate and they are friendly. Everything from the octopus to the mussels, salads, Mac daddy burger (bacon Mac and cheese on a burger....what's better than that)!!! Raw bar is fresh and delish. Large and well rounded selection of red and white wine by glass and the bottle and great beer selection as well. Excellent experience every time.

This is an old, family owned Italian restaurant. It is a mainstay of the area.
Reviewed By BenzgalS550 - New York City, New York
It’s been decades since I have dined at Stella’s. The matriarch has passed away and we all have aged a bit but the food remains the good quality it always has been. The portions are still huge. My veal with pappadelle was a huge serving size that I was able to get another meal from my leftovers. The sausage rolls are unique and tasty.
Save room for dessert, the tiramisu is my favorite.
And yes the place looks the same after decades but that’s part of its quaintness.
