My wife and I stopped in last night. This was probably our fourth time we were there. As I said previously, the place is very stylish and sleek. Unfortunately, this time I believe the service was lacking. We sat at the bar and were basically ignored for a few minutes. No napkins, no drink menu, no waters. We asked for a glass of water, but it didn't even arrive. We had to ask the bar back a few minutes later. I eventually got the attention of one of the bartenders and we were able to get our drinks. The drinks are very good. There were three bartenders. Two men and a woman. The men basically walk back-and-forth and never asked us if we wanted another drink . One of them was pretty loud and cursing like a sailor. Kind of not appropriate for a place with this classy style and appearance. The female bartender was definitely better although we had to flag her down to get a drink. Additionally, for a place like this I think the music could be a bit lower. Trust me, I love load music but in keeping with the theme of this establishment in my opinion I'd like to be able to have a conversation without yelling. That being said, we will likely be back. Hopefully this was a one time issue

Awesome speakeasy located in Patchogue (sorry you'll have to find it on your own, otherwise it's no fun)! Walking in you immediately get a very chill but more upscale vibe. They offer a variety of cocktails, other drink, and food options. They also offer a new all day/night happy hour on Wednesdays and a ladies night deal on Thursdays. Our drinks were very tasty and we loved the atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

Dark and Intimate setting, its very inviting - had 6pm reservation, showed up at 5:30 and we were seated. We were handed menus and the waitress was really sweet. We ordered the lamb chop entree, the salmon entree and tuna tartare, sweet&sour cauliflower - all were really good however the tuna tartare was too sweet for me. Drinks ordered were Old Fashions and Lemon Drop - the drinks were very tasty and strong, during dinner, someone was coming over frequently to make sure we were ok and enjoying our meal - after paying we were sitting at the table waiting for our Uber, we were asked to sit at the bar, as they needed the table - a bit awkward but it was Valentines Day and they did seat us early for our reservation, so I wasn't bothered by the request.

This review is backdated--I went on Sunday, March 15th. I have been dreaming of a place like this. I want city vibes without having to trek all the way into the city. I am tired of the Irish pub, ale house, sports bar crowd. I'm middle-aged and I want something elegant and elevated... like me, lol. The snow finally melted, spring is springing, and I needed to get out. Any place that offers happy hour on a Sunday is already a win in my book--but the fact they call it Golden Hour? I love that. After a long, hard work week, I wanted to treat myself. The moment I walked in, I got old Hollywood ambiance. I was fully expecting to bump into Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack at any moment. Let's talk about the food. I had the wedge salad--and baby, this was not a side, this was a meal. We're talking chunky blue cheese dressing, bacon jam, pickled red onions, roasted cherry tomatoes... and a literal half head of lettuce. A big back salad for the ages. Then I had the shrimp cocktail--nice, large shrimp. Not those tiny, embarrassing ones either. And yes, they sell bumps of caviar, so of course I had one... because I am a bougie great Auntie. Now the bar? Super comfortable stools, which matters. And I had the pleasure of meeting two of the hottest mixologists in Patchogue--Brent and Chris. Truly masters of their craft. Go follow them on social media. I had the Only fans martini. It was delicious. I ordered my go-to: a cosmopolitan. And let me tell you--not everyone can make a proper cosmo. This one? Top tier. Overall, I love this establishment. Classy cocktails, amazing food, immaculate vibes, and impeccable service. My one and only complaint: when I walked in, they were playing 90s alternative rock. I was expecting jazz. With a place this classy, how do you not play jazz? Or at least some deep house? Either way--get down there ASAP.

We made a reservation to try the new speakeasy bar in Patchogue. Beautiful decor inside, love the hidden look it has from outside. We were seated in a great spot, but we all sunk in the chairs and couch. When it came time to eat, it was awkward to try and sit up properly. I feel like the cocktail menu was very limited. I went with the Ginger Snap because I'm a tequila girl and it was good, they even made it strong. We ordered apps; Oyster Rockefeller, Thai crispy calamari, and a Tuna tartare. They were all delicious, the tuna tartare was my favorite, but the chips were a little on the burnt side. After that, service took a turn for the worst when more people started trickling in, especially when a group of around 8 showed up. It took a while for our waitress to get back to us since she had to take orders from every table. One waitress on a Saturday evening.... She disappeared a lot, but we understood and we were patient. Our orders were finally taken, but we had to continue waiting a very long time for the food to get back to us. We sat there for a while with empty cocktail glasses and no more sparkling water... we finally got our second round of drinks, but one drink did not make it back before the entree. The waitress apologized and when she came back with the drink, she stated that the bar was sorry and that they would give us a discount due to it being forgotten. I ordered the salmon and it was delicious, a little undercooked, but I'm ok with that. The risotto was phenomenal, one of the best I've had, very flavorful. I did clean my plate. We then ordered dessert, and it also took a while for it to comeback. Now I keep saying this because we were there for a whole 2.5 hours! It wasn't our fault, the kitchen wasn't pumping out the plates fast enough and the waitress was always MIA because she was attending the entire place. The only reason they get 3 stars is because how slow it all was, and also because at the end, the manager or hostess or whoever, stated "I'm not trying to be rude, but there's a 2 hour limit here". Excuse me, we were not trying to be there for more than 2 hours. It looked like another party of 5 or 6 was trying to get seated, and they wanted to give our spot to them. Not sure if we'll be back.

Picture the first few seconds of the Guns N Roses video for "Welcome to the Jungle" where the girl from some small town gets off a bus and looks at a big city for the first time. Well, if you took that girl and brought her to Aces and 8's she would be naive enough to believe that she was somewhere fancy. The food was good, I'd be bold enough to say great. A price fix menu $57 for 3 courses $67 for 4 courses. Our introduction to the place was the waitress spilled a drink on her customer. As everyone scrambled for napkins, the same waitress began taking orders for food. Mistakes happen, and I can accept that. Putting the spilled drink aside, as a part of the price fix meal your dessert is included. 3 out of 6 of us ordered an ice cream sandwich. The ice cream was good. I'd love to know what the cookie tastes like. I personally asked a waitress and the manager to attempt to break the cookie apart using the provided spoon. The cookie was so frozen that no one at the table or the staff could break it apart. A passing waitress said "oh now I know why other people gave us their plates with just cookies on them."The manager took the dessert off the bill, and my pants were dry when I left. For $250 a couple I am more than confident we will find other establishments to visit. Everyone was very nice and accommodating, but this will be our only visit. Aces and 8's falls victim to most of Patchogue's problem: The Service. Every place has the same amazing and intriguing ideas, with the most inexperienced or inattentive staff. As I write this review, I'm still waiting for the brunette bartender from BoBbique to look in my direction so I can order a beer. Again, the staff was nice , but when you're not the girl from Alabama seeing the city for the first time, you are ready and willing to pay for more, but they simply cannot deliver. We are experienced diners, being asked to pay for your growing pains? Please avoid. Look up Orto or even Ixchel for a great meal, with a very experienced staff.

Gone are the days of the Brickhouse brewery. Now you have a super classy joint that resides right in Patchogue. A place that, I'm reminded by my husband every time we drive through, use to not be so classy. My sister requested that we have her baby shower here because she was such a fan of the food. And she was right. The food is fresh and delicious and featured in a very well thought out menu. Julien was a pleasure to work with during the preparations. Allowing access to the space during not busy times to help us plan our decorations. Day of it was all hands on deck. Julien, Anna and our amazing bartender with the handlebar mustache exceeded our expectations. The food was incredible. My sister had the best time and that's all that matters. And I have the State Room to thank for it. Posting few pics of the rooms before the guests arrives so you have an idea of the space :)

Alibi is currently running a Harry Potter pop up, and if you know anything about me, you will know I am a HUGE fan. The Alibi was decorated beautifully and there were two really cute Photo Ops by "Platform 9 3/4" and the Wand Shop. Come here for the drinks! The Hufflepuff was bourbon forward and reminded me of an Old Fashioned which further confirmed that is truly my house. It also came with an edible golden snitch. The server pointed it out before I gave them what I thought to be decor. I popped the chocolate golden snitch in my mouth after being directed to take the wrapping off first. We then did butterbeer shots and I can't even begin to tell you how delish they were...dangerously delicious. Food was had and it wasn't anything to write about but I'll try. Queso dip is made in house, which I respect. Loaded potato wontons were a great idea and were probably the best things on the table. You can't go wrong with pretzel nuggets. Chocolate cake is never a bad idea. I ended my visit with a chocolate frog drink. Very similar to an espresso martini. You know how hot they are right now. It came with a an actual chocolate frog which was nice. Finally one of the staff members came over to help us play Bertie Botts and we all picked a jellybean. I got lemon. Some of us got soap and warwax. So fun! It was so good, we are going to try to snag another rez for trivia. Reservations are for 90 minute seatings. You pay $15 for a ticket but you get a souvenir cup with your ticket. Not mad about this because the cup is actually decent and will be used. Their next pop up will be "Slime Time". Slime is not my thing but maybe you'll see me at the other pop ups.

Located in the heart of Garden City, the Rose Room is easily accessible and offers ample parking. Like so many years past, my colleagues and I are always on the hunt for that special place and experience that will elevate our holiday dinner outing. I was so pleased that The Rose Room was selected. As mentioned, the elegance and ambiance of the restaurant are pitch-perfect. The hostess, wait staff, and management all delivered top-notch service. The food was spectacular. I especially enjoyed the bacon maple stripe. My colleagues and I devoured them in seconds. I can't say enough good things about The Rose Room. That said, I am looking forward to my next visit. I would recommend adding The Rose Room to this holiday's restaurant rotation.

It's as described by others... if you're staying on site, it's worth checking out but I wouldn't make a special trip for it. We were starving and glad to see some apps on the menu, however, nothing super appealing after you've had a few drinks. We got the shrimp cocktail (3 pieces) and a small charcuterie board. Together this was over $50 before tip and overpriced. I think options are limited because they don't have a kitchen nearby.
