    The drinks were good and cheap. My quesadilla burger was cooked to perfection. A quick dinner out with no wait is alright with me.

    Look at the picture. Guess which Salad cost more than $15.00. This was my second and last time ordering to-go. First time went smooth. Price wise and taste. This time I felt fooled with the costly tiny Applebees salad. Quinoa is a highly costly product. My suggestion, never order any salad with Quinoa. You will pay a high prices and you will feel rip off.

    Hi! and greetings to all my Yelp friends. Thursday nights are good for Thursday Night Football, local neighborhood bars, cold draft beers and best friends. Local Applebee's in East Islip has always been a neighborhood favorite meeting spot. And I mean there's not one time I pass this place driving on Sunrise Highway that this parking lot is not jammed. Tonight the bar was not packed at all, I guess our local Sports teams are no longer contenders and relevant. Gas keeps spiking up and the holidays draw near. I guess I will be number one customer again for a while. As most will be pulling in their belts and pinching pennies for the next couple months. Heck ! I'm still traveling on business and have to eat, so you'll be seeing me coming on through the door. I really enjoy the neighborhood connections that Applebee's has. Each local Applebee's bar becomes part of their hometown. Applebee's celebrates their local connections with pictures of the High School sports teams, Universities and cool Long Island sites to see. Each Applebee's is different. The towns and collages on the walls will be in tune with their location. I enjoy the pick 2 for $20 Specials Applebee's features, I usually upgrade for the small $3 and get the tender baby back ribs. The meal comes with two sides I recommend the mac and cheese and a stuffed baked potato. You also have a choice of getting 2 salads or a single large appetizer to share with your friend. Your choose. I generally always sit at the bar, even to eat. This has been constantly one of my Yelp tips. If you have the option sitting at the bar, this avoids the ridiculous long wait and service is always quick and with a smile. Your server is your barmaid who's right in front of you. I see the long wait for food and service being one of the main yelpers complaints in Many restaurant reviews. This is one of the reasons my visits and reviews usually rate a little higher than other folks. The reason why is I take control and make the occasion or venue fit my needs. If I sense my dining experience isn't going well, I speak up immediately with the manager. And right away I'll have a better day! Well the service and the food here was great for a sports bar. I was very pleased and will not hesitate to come to this Applebee's again. I guess that's why this place can be sometimes crowded. Folks know where to go. Where everybody knows your name. You got to go where everybody knows your name...I'm BIG JIM !

    If you love lobster- this is a great spot in Suffolk county long island. We celebrated Father's Day…read morehere and it didn't disappoint. The drinks were a great value and portion. Lobster rolls didn't disappoint and the lobster bomb is definitely worth trying even once and def big enough to share. We had it with filet mignon but next time I want to try it with lump crab. Their menu is extensive enough where if you don't want seafood you can still enjoy many options. My only suggestion would be to enlarge the portion of asparagus as a side. Not sure if they're meant for one but our family of four would've like two stalks each. We gave the two extra to the man of the hour :) There's limited outdoor seating which looks nice but didn't want to wait too long so we got an inside table. Service was fine inside.

    This place has such a wonderful vibe. The seating inside and outside are extensive and nicely done…read more The staff is excellent. The menu is super interesting with lots of selections, and most importantly, their food is good. We got the lobster bomb, because it's Tuesday, I ordered one fish taco of their special taco Tuesday menu, we got the muscles with lobster and the tuna wonton appetizer. The lobster bomb taste delicious, but if I get it again, I will definitely order it with the bread bowl on the side. It absorbs too much of the soup and gets soggy. We thought the wonton tuna appetizer was OK. I probably would not order that again. The fish taco barely had any fish in it. And the fish that was in it was mostly the crunchy batter that was on the fish. Really I didn't taste any cod. We really like the muscles a lot.

The service was friendly and attentive, and the dive-bar ambiance gave the place a relaxed, authentic feel. I'll definitely be recommending this spot to others.

    Three star reviews are never meant to be negative. Sometimes it's just how things go. Nothing is…read morebad per se, but nothing is necessarily great either. That was kind of the case a few weeks ago at Dark Horse Tavern in Bay Shore. I came here with some buddies for dinner on a Sunday night and things were totally fine. I mean like I said, I can't speak to anything being truly negative. Dark Horse had a relatively spacious and inviting interior with a little holiday flair. Our waitress was friendly enough and our food came at a good pace. And what I ordered wasn't too shabby...though I guess if there's anything to say about my three star feelings, it might be there. Now Dark Horse did have a decently-sized menu, but after visiting a brewery prior to this dinner trip, I was feeling something simple like a burger. Featuring a juicy Lucy sounded like a win as did the idea of Cajun fries. Those spuds were rather good, though the juicy part of said Lucy wasn't really that juicy. Despite having never been to Minnesota, I know this type of burger really needs some gooey cheese coming out of it and this one lacked that. The burger itself was good, but like an "easily-forgettable" good. The same could be said for their Dark Horse Lager beer. I've been to other Dark Horses on the island and have seen (and I believe had) this brew, but for whatever reason it just seemed very bland and basic. Perhaps after having some more elaborate beers prior my tastebuds were looking for something with more zing, but I can't say for sure. All I know is between this and the basic burger, I really didn't have anything great (or ultimately negative) to say. Overall, yeah I suppose some of that sounds negative and a three star review feels a little meh towards other prospective eaters and readers of this review, but that's me telling the truth here. If I were in Bay Shore and someone suggested Dark Horse for dinner I probably wouldn't say no because just about everything will be decent enough, but if you're specifically asking me for recommendations in the area, I'm probably going to mention a bunch of other places instead. Just sayin'.
