Everything about Arlo was impeccable. The food, the service, the decor, the ambience...truly one of those places that gets everything right. We ordered a little bit of everything: the Kitchen Sink Potatoes, mac & cheese, skirt steak, strip steak, chicken, dirty martinis and margaritas, and there genuinely wasn't one thing we wouldn't order again. Everything was cooked perfectly, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. The space itself is gorgeous and has such a great atmosphere, but what really made the experience was how well everything came together. Between the amazing food, great cocktails, attentive service and a beautiful setting. Couldn't have asked for a better dinner. Arlo absolutely lived up to the hype and we will definitely be back. read more

We decided to go out for an early outdoor dinner on a beautiful summer night. We order cocktails and wine. For appetizers, we had the crab cake and baked clams. Truthfully the baked clams were small and dry, but had an amazing flavor. For dinner, we both had steaks both were PERFECTLY prepared with loads of flavor. The Cowboy ribeye was out of this world. We also order the potatoes that was the BEST Flavor ever... KITCHEN SINK POTATO crisy potato, shallot, galic confit Our waiter John was amazing as well as his dinner service. Highly recommended this place. read more

Wonderful service, beautiful establishment, tasty bites. We came on a Saturday evening and grabbed a few happy hour drinks at the bar before being seated for our reservation. The bar alone was decadent(more than one bar) and it felt like we were transported back a few decades which was lovely. For dinner we had the tasty crab cake, fish and chips, a burger and seafood pasta. We also ordered the kitchen sink as a side (but honestly we weren't impressed with that side, everything else was great. Will be back. read more

Our daughter gave my wife and I a gift certificate for Arlo Kitchen and Bar. So, we trekked out to Fort Salonga from New Hyde Park to check it out. Upon entering which is an upscale restaurant we were greeted by several hostesses. We arrived early around 4:30 due to no traffic surprisedly and our reservations were for 5:00, so we sat at the bar for a while due to it was too early for us to eat dinner. Luckily it was still happy hour. The restaurant was not crowded because it was early and it was the day after New Year's Day. My wife ordered a Cosmo and a Margarita for me. Drinks were good and the bartenders were efficient and friendly. After the drinks at 5:00 we headed upstairs to a cozy table. Our waiter greeted us, and we ordered fried calamari for an app and 2 glasses of wine. For dinner we both had the DRY AGED SHORT RIB RAGU, (dry aged short rib, paccheri pasta, wild mushroom, veal demi, red wine, and parmesan). So very good. It was a good portion. The fried calamari was very good and the Short Rib RAGU was awesome. We had leftovers and enjoyed it the next day. We were too full for dessert, so we just had cappuccino, which was very good also. One the best I have had in a restaurant. Prices were reasonable for an upscale restaurant. We enjoyed our time at the bar and dinner. Definitely a must to check out especially if you are celebrating an event. read more

Service: Good all around. They have a valet service and the attendants were so nice. The server gave us recommendations and told us some of her favorites and veered us in a direction to have a nice cohesive meal. The server didn't write things down, so a couple of the smaller items we requested did not come out. Food: Winter Burrata Salad - Wonderful Mix of Textures. The flavors were warm and inviting for the winter vegetables and pumpkin seed, while the creaminess of the cheese paired well with the crunch of the crispy prosciutto Wagyu New York Strip - well seasoned. Since this is such a fatty cut of steak, we ask for it to be cooked medium to render some of the fat out. The steak is very buttery and coats your mouth. Cowboy Steak - Okay. Even though it was dry aged, it didn't have the nuttiness a dry aged steak would have. I would splurge and get the tomahawk if a ribeye is what you desire. Foie Gras Risotto - Full Funk! It had the same funkiness as eating goat cheese. If you like that funk, then this is for you. After taking this home and reheating with a bit of water, the funk was diluted a bit. Kitchen Potatoes - Buttery. Lovely to have a change of pace to not have mashed potatoes on the table. The chunks of potatoes were fried to become fluffy and crispy. Brussels Sprouts - Sweet. The sprouts had a sweetener that threw it off balance. Mille Feuille Dessert - best dessert! This was a specialty item for the night. The pastry was crip and the custard was decadent! On to my next adventure... read more

My absolute favorite restaurant on Long Island. I've been coming here since it opened and it always a winner each time. It feels like Manhattan without taking the LIRR. I LOVD the entire atmosphere, the James Bond vibe, the classy look and when it warmer the upstairs outside area. The drinks, food and service is TOP TIER. This is a place for a special celebration. The pork chop is my go to. Love ya Arlo. read more

This restaurant checks off so many boxes for a special occasion. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the service is terrific and and the food is exceptional. It's in a nice location for a drive as well in the summer. We didn't avail ourselves of the outdoor seating but that looks like a nice option as well. read more

Absolutely blown away by the food and service at Arlo! One of the best meals I ever had. Gorgeous interior as well. They had a live violin player who even played happy birthday for us and the restaurant gave us a birthday card. The steaks were cooked perfectly, broccolini and mac and cheese soooo delicious. The desserts were some of the best ever. Cheesecake was phenomenal. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommend! read more

This is the restaurant you go to for a special occasion or celebration! Made a reservation for a Thursday night, which was definitely needed. It was busy. We weren't there for restaurant week but it was going on. Definitely a beautiful, upscale restaurant that is great for special occasions. I wouldn't consider this your casual weekend night dinner. Everyone was dressed nice (no t shirts). The food and service were honestly amazing. Our server was attentive, gave great suggestions and was so pleasant to chat with. We shared the duck gnocchi appetizer which my husband and I both thought was great and unique. Got the burrata and wedge salad. Both were yummy but not original or life changing, but if you're in the mood for it they were good! The entrees were the standouts. The lamb I had was so flavorful, cooked to perfection and it came with roasted potato's and carrots. I would get this over and over. My husband had the tuna steak which he also loved. We shared 2 sides, Mac and cheese and broccolini. While both were excellent, it wasn't necessary, it was so much food. The our door decor and outside seating looked so nice and I would love to come back in the summer to enjoy drinks there! read more

Arlo is a fancy and upscale place, and I've been here a few times for dinner, including New Years Eve because we wanted to get dressed up nice and still stay local. But the food is always underwhelming, overpriced, and just not worth it compared to many other restaurants on the island, or even in Suffolk County. We probably won't be coming back anytime soon. read more

The restaurant is beautiful . We were a party of 6 and we were sat in a spacious booth that was perfect for us with 2 kids. Our waiter was very kind and knowledgeable . They were very attentive and stopped by to refill our water and bread often. The food was delicious and all cooked perfectly. The music was also great ! Pork chop with asparagus was my favorite with spicy peppers. read more

First a foremost - the location and service are fabulous. Contemporary meets mid century modern, and breathtaking out door space make this a feast for the eye and pleasure for the senses. Staff has always been very welcoming, and attentive. They food IMHO - total gamble. Each plate can either incredibly good of incredulously bad. No rhyme or reason or reason to it other than what I can assume is poor teamwork and attention to detail in the kitchen. For instance, the bone marrow in the pictured item was completely raw.. unless that bone marrow is prepared properly beforehand and put into the casserole. There's no way to effectively bake them at the same time and have the marrow be cooked.. that was the case here. In addition that entire plate had zero seasoning or balance.... All fat, no flavor... nothing popped. Just blah. Same for many of the brunch items... no pop or flavor to make a memory. Just blah. Contrast that against every pasta dish we've had here which has been absolutely fabulous. I'm not a professional chef nor do I pretend to be one... but I am a keen observer of service quality and appreciate the craft, so it saddens me that food and preparation is so inconsistent at Arlo in my experience. read more

Phenomenal experience from start to finish! Valet parking attendant was nice. We were seated on time for our reservation. The ambiance was absolutely amazing, which was elevated even further by a phenomenal violinist playing live music throughout dinner. The food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. One detail that really stood out was how our server presented the bottle of wine to each person before serving them. That's something I've only experienced once before. That extra touch made it a unique experience. Overall, a fantastic Saturday afternoon. Highly recommend! read more

Pricey but well worth it. I've been here about 4 times and every time I've had an exceptional meal. The ingredients used and execution are top notch for Long Island fine dining. The decor is fancy yet inviting. I would recommend this place for any special occasion or even just a random date night. Service is always great as well. One day I might even try the scary duck breast with chocolate chip cookie crumble dish as I'm sure they will make the flavors work well! read more

This might just be *the* most beautiful restaurant I've ever been to on Long Island! My mom had her heart set on celebrating her birthday here, so we went for brunch--and wow, what a great choice. The place is cozy, stunning, and the staff? Absolutely amazing. We kicked things off with a glass of Prosecco For entrées, I went with the eggs Benedict, which came with the most delicious truffle hollandaise--rich, but not overpowering and the most delicious crispy breakfast potatoes! My mom went for the lobster avocado toast. They do NOT skimp on the lobster. It was so good! When they found out it was my mom's birthday and that I recently got engaged, they surprised us with a baked Alaska! Sweet, thoughtful, and so delicious. And if that wasn't enough, they brought out another round of champagne on the house! I've honestly never seen a staff go above and beyond like that. We were there with two friends who had been there before and told us how beautiful the upstairs dining area is. Sadly, it was closed for a private event, but now I have a reason to come back--and I will be back! The pastas on the menu looked incredible, so I might have to plan a dinner visit next time. Highly, highly recommend this place--it's a total gem! read more

Place is beautiful. Service was excellent. Food was original and great. A little loud but will definitely go back. Enjoyed it.

Very classy restaurant with incredible service. The food here is top notch and their menu has a variety of options with a focus on seafood. Their cosmos and espresso martinis are perfectly strong while having lots of flavor. The tuna tartare was fresh and tasty! I liked the grilled octopus but I wouldn't order it again, it just wasn't my favorite but it was still tasty. The seared ahi tuna was delicious and the dish had lots of flavor to it. The Wagyu was the star of the show and was a special on their menu. The marbling was amazing and the steak was perfectly cooked. We ended with the rosemary creme brûlée which was so sweet and savory and I loved every bite! I can't wait to come back! read more

I have been wanting to go here for a while now finally tried them for brunch. The service is outstanding, the vibe is upscale elegant. And the place is bigger than it seems from the outside. It is a little loud so it's hard to converse while you're dining, but this seems to be the case everywhere lately. The food & drinks are great! I started off with the lychee rouge, because lychee is a fav! I'll be honest I was a little concerned it would be too sweet given the ingredients, but it was fantastic! Not sweet, but floral and fruity. I ordered eggs in purgatory, wow they are spicy!!!! But delicious. I'm glad I finally tried them I enjoyed it very much. read more

Our meals were very good. The dining room and overall space and vibe are also very nice. The menu is actually not at all extensive but I saw that as a plus, it checked all the boxes without being too large (a mistake many restaurants make). I would have added one star had the service been better. Our water glasses were constantly checked and kept filled, there were adequate staff on the floor and the restaurant was not very busy. Our food was brought to the table by a runner and everything was hot and well presented. The problem was the waiter rarely checked back after taking our order. We saw him once, well after our food was tabled, again when we asked for desert menus and to drop the check. Had he been busy it would be understandable but he simply seemed to be interested in two other tables (he had others) giving them excellent service while orphaning others. I should add that the valets were very polite and engaging, even asking if we had enjoyed our meals...well done, valets. read more

Arlo kitchen and bar you have outdone yourself!! The modern decor makes you feel like you just left Long Island and transplanted into Miami .I would come back alone just for the burger sliders, which deserve an outstanding ovation. The beet salad with pesto was phenomenal.For my main dish I had the roasted chicken with Au jus which was top tier. The dessert felt short for me though. The parking here is pretty terrible, you definitely need to valet park. The restaurant is on a hill, so the entrance is narrow and pretty easy to miss.Nonetheless the food was incredible and, the service was great. Will absolutely come back!! read more

Arlo is a beautiful, very high end, hidden gem in Fort Salonga. The aesthetics are top notch. The food is very good and high quality. The ambiance, minus the constant infants (this should be prohibited from a place that charges you top $$$$... this is NOT the place to bring your babies or toddlers. Please be considerate to others who want to go out and have a great experience. Arlo is not Applebees.) is great. You have amazing outside seating, in what I consider to be a tranquil woodsie experience. You're literally sitting on a hill, within the woods, in a very nice atmosphere. This is my 3rd time here. The only complaint I have is the attentiveness of the service. It does not match the NYC like high pricing. Service is kind, but not effective, nor efficient. Each time I have had a different server and it's been the same disappointment, in terms of engagement. I think they may be a little short handed or just short on high end customer service. Sat for 10+ mins without water, drink orders taken, or bread to table. We needed pepper with our apps, and we could not even get someone for, again, 10 mins. Saw the waiter, but he was running around for others, and would never look our direction. That's a BIG miss in my book. This restaurant needs to figure this out. Otherwise, a high end place, with food to match... need to work on service. Still recommend. read more

We came here for dinner on our site to NY and had a great time! Atmosphere: The location and restaurant itself is beautiful! It is woodsy with such an elegant feel inside. Service: Our waiter was super nice and attentive. It was a little busy in there, but our server made sure to check on us throughout the night. Plus it gave us time to chat with the table! Food: Food was overall good. There were things I loved and some things I thought were okay. The calamari was not my favorite, it wasn't super crispy and had a fishier taste. The wedge salad, steaks, and mashed potatoes were all fantastic! By the time dessert came, I was stuffed but the little bite I did try was good. Price: For a nicer steakhouse prices were fair. Most steaks ranged from $55-$80 and sides from $13-$18. Between the couple of appetizers, salads, steaks, and sides. It ended up being about $100 pp. read more

Had dinner here on a Wednesday night during restaurant week. We were disappointed. My husband ordered a starter of crab cake which was good and I ordered a Caesar salad which had limp lettuce. We both ordered a main of pappardelle pasta with lobster sauce and whole lobster as described on the menu. It was bland tasting and only had 3 pieces of lobster with a mound of pasta. For dessert we each had the chocolate mousse cake which was just ok. Could have had a more chocolate taste. We went with the wine pairing for each course and the wine was very good. Our server Naomi was excellent. Very pleasant and attentive. Arlo's ambiance could use some help. We were seated downstairs and it was very loud. There is no noise buffering in the restaurant. We kept leaning over the table to hear each other speak. We won't be going back. There are plenty of other restaurants to choose from. read more

Beautiful restaurant. Great service. I was disappointed with my Caesar Salad but other than that, it was a great experience. I went there during Restaurant Week which is always a great way to try food at a restaurant you've never been to. I would come back but I would definitely not order the Caesar salad. It didn't have enough flavor or cheese or something. I've had better Caesar salad at my local pizzeria. Sorry. Enough about me. Everyone else seemed to really enjoy the food. I will say they did an amazing job accommodating our large group. read more

I gave this restaurant 4 stars solely on the appearance of the restaurant. It is so well Decorated you feel as if you are stepping into another world. The outdoor patio is amazing. Very cozy feel. However I do not love the food here. Our steak was good but not great. And I have to say I didn't really like anything else we ordered other than the steak and the wine. It very expensive rightfully so due to the place itself but the food in my opinion needs to be stepped up. Kitchen sink potatoes were messy and my Mac and cheese tasted like feet cheese and was dry. Service was great but doesn't help with food quality read more

Someone recently told me it was all hype. Dead wrong imo. We came for my friend's birthday dinner. The minute we pulled into the parking lot, service was exceptional from the vallet and the hostess. Upon our arrival for happy hour the manager showed us to a table. He later checked on us and made great conversation. Jimmy was our sever and was an absolute delight. He was at the table just when we needed a fresh cocktail or just a little vibe check. Also I love that they crumb clean the table in between courses. Okay sorry had to give the top notch service the well deserved shoutout. Now to the food. The Monday happy hour is where it's at. Also round of applause to the bread. Love a restaurant that still gives bread. Quality bread at that(a lot of places starting to skimp out). It's served with a beautiful whipped black garlic butter. For our HH selections, we got the seafood platter, the charcuterie board, and the fried calamari. The seafood platter was fresh cleaned well and the shrimps were ginormous. The charcuterie board was a well stocked board. I'm being a bit nitpicky but one of the meat choices had an odd floral like aftertaste, wasn't really for me but may be for some. The calamari classic but a nice happy hour staple. Jimmy brought us over a nice little chocolate cake adorned with some beautiful plump berries. Thank you to Jimmy and the rest of the staff for a wonderful birthday dinner for my friend. We will definitely be returning read more

"What wasn't good about the experience" is the best question I could ask. From the moment we pulled up to the moment we left, Arlo was a five star experience. The staff is friendly and immediately sees to you, bringing you through a beautiful restaurant. As soon as we sat, our waiter, Joe, came over regarding water preference. He then returned with a birthday card and champagne for my boyfriend because I noted we were celebrating a birthday. As he dove into the specials he gave us real suggestions and "must have" items to try which is rare from wait staff who usually just tell you "what others have enjoyed." The food was phenomenal: the baked clams were delicious and left whole, the lobster pappardelle was crazy good, and the filet mignon was absolutely terrific especially with the kitchen sink potatoes on the side. For dessert we had the special which was a peach tres leches and the strawberry crostada which was unbelievable. Overall amazing experience and can't wait to come back. read more

Great Food, But Service Left Much to Be Desired My family and I decided to have a celebratory dinner at this restaurant to mark a special occasion--both of my sisters becoming homeowners and just celebrating life in general. Based on the reviews, this place seemed perfect, but unfortunately, our experience didn't quite live up to the hype. We couldn't get a table indoors, so we opted to sit on the patio, which was lovely, though we had to deal with crickets and bugs landing on our table. The aesthetics were there, and I can imagine the patio being quite nice during the day, but the bug situation was a bit of a hassle. We ordered a variety of sides and shared the Tomahawk steak among four people, which was delicious. One of my sisters ordered the duck, and that's where the series of unfortunate events began. Everyone received their entrées and finished eating, but her duck never arrived. It turned out that the waiter never even told the kitchen about it--first strike! The general manager stepped in to do some damage control and offered us complimentary champagne, which was a nice gesture. Then, my brother ordered a second drink, but it never came. At that point, we were ready to call it a night and asked for the bill--second strike! To top it off, my other sister ordered food to go, and when she went to pick it up at the coat check, the food was gone! We had to wait another 30 minutes for them to remake it, which was incredibly frustrating. By this point, my family and I were completely over it. The general manager made several trips to our table to apologize for the numerous mishaps, and we were offered free dessert, which was amazing. But even with great food, the service left a bad taste in our mouths. I'd be afraid to come back here, especially after experiencing so many issues in one visit. Maybe they had new staff or were just having an off night, but something definitely needs to be fixed. read more

Dining at Arlo Kitchen & Bar was more than just a meal--it was an experience, one that far exceeded our expectations and left a lasting impression. For my wife's birthday, I wanted to take her somewhere special, a place where the food was just as memorable as the occasion itself. Arlo delivered in every way. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone--sophisticated yet inviting, warm yet refined. The lighting was just right, casting a glow that made the evening feel intimate, while the attentive service made us feel like more than just guests, but truly welcomed. We started with the grilled octopus in romesco sauce, and from the very first bite, we knew we were in for something special. The octopus was perfectly tender, kissed with just the right amount of char, and the romesco sauce--rich, smoky, and slightly nutty--elevated every bite. It was a beautifully balanced dish, both in flavor and texture, setting the stage for what was to come. Now, onto the star of the evening--the ribeye for two. It arrived beautifully plated, perfectly cooked, and with an aroma that had us eager from the first cut. The steak itself? To die for. Each bite was rich, deeply flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. To take it even further, we paired it with a luscious Au Poivre sauce--a velvety, peppery masterpiece that complemented the ribeye's natural depth without overpowering it. But Arlo didn't stop at the main course. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a revelation--charred just enough to bring out their natural sweetness, with a crunch that made them impossible to stop eating. And then there were the Kitchen Sink Potatoes--a side that was so much more than just an accompaniment. Creamy, indulgent, and layered with flavors that seemed to unfold with every bite, they were a masterpiece in their own right. What made the experience even more remarkable was the balance Arlo struck between elegance and approachability. Every detail was polished, every dish executed flawlessly, yet the atmosphere remained warm and relaxed, never veering into the overly formal. It was upscale without the pretense, refined yet effortlessly comfortable--a rare combination. By the end of the night, we were not only full but genuinely impressed. Arlo Kitchen & Bar doesn't just serve exceptional food; it creates moments. Whether for a celebration or simply a night out, this is the kind of restaurant that makes you want to come back, again and again. read more
