My Long Island buds Peter, Howie and Richie on this gorgeous Sunday morning.
Ray N.

My buddy Doc Howie mentioned this really good bagel place on Willis Ave. So after racquetball on Sunday four of us diehard bagel fans drove the few minutes east to Roslyn Heights and parked in the big parking lot behind Barbara's Bagels. The 5 star highlights: 1) Really tasty and fresh bagels - we got there at 10 am on a Sunday and they were baking a new batch to replenish the quickly moving tasty ones. 2) $1.50 per bagel is 50 cents to $1 lower than every other bagel store on Long Island. I paid $5 for a well buttered and yummy everything bagel and a large coffee with a refill. Awesome deal! 3) Great and strong self help coffee. A good cup of Joe makes a good bagel better. The staff was on top of ensuring coffee was being freshly prepared every few minutes. 4) Really fun, efficient and chill staff( esp Adam) who went through that line( photo) in a jiffy. 5) Great and convenient location just north of the LIE on Willis Ave with loads of parking in the back lot. Barbara was beautiful!

Great place for breakfast sandwiches and beverages. Super nice staff and very reasonably priced considering Roslyn. Today's my first time here but definitely will return frequently.

We stopped by on a Saturday morning and it was quite busy with locals, which seemed to be a good sign. I ordered a plain bagel with butter, and the bagel was completely drenched in melted butter. The bagel itself was good, but it was difficult to eat and very messy with all of the butter dripping. If you're ordering with butter, I'd recommend asking for "light butter" or on the side.

Corner spot, parking in the back but also parking on the street available. Small spot but the service and delivery of food is really quick. Fresh bagels, delicious bagels. I love bagel and I'd consider myself a bagel tester lol. Ice coffee was fresh and great as well.

Sausage, egg & cheese whole wheat wrap

I've been coming here for over 3 years now ever since I moved to the area. They have all your typical bagel spot items and everything tastes decent for the most part. I've been getting my usual every weekend- a sausage (or bacon), egg & cheese sandwich (or wrap) or an everything bagel scooped out with either plain cream cheese or butter. I prefer their hot sandwiches over the bagels bc their bagels are too thick and chewy for my liking but nonetheless, still good and my kids like them. They also have mini & rainbow bagels for your little ones too! All the workers here are friendly and nice. It does get really busy during the morning rush so you may want to call in your order.

Whitefish. Yummm
Barry H.

They make a delicious New York style bagel here. It is well baked, as evidence by a dough with superb texture. I had mine with poppy seeds and a spread of whitefish salad. The whitefish was a little too soft (too much mayo perhaps), but it wasn't bad. The service is good and the prices are fair.

WARNING: Extremely disappointing and potentially unsafe experience…read more I rarely leave reviews like this, but people need to be aware of what I experienced at this deli. I bought the cocktail shrimp ($12 for half a pound) and was shocked. The shrimp had a greenish discoloration on the sides, was extremely stringy, and had an off smell. It did NOT look or taste fresh and honestly raised serious concerns about quality and storage. When bringing it to the attention of the cashier she replied "Ella no quiere". Bringing it to another person attention "what happened" Ella no quiere again. It's not that I don't want it. It was disgusting they were selling green shrimp. The gentleman at the counter was very sweet, but even if he gave me a fresh one, it would've been from the same green, stringy batch regardless. They should absolutely not be serving this especially on the Fourth of July. I also tried the lobster salad ($22 for a small half pound), which was basically mayonnaise with corn and celery and only a few tiny pieces of lobster. nowhere near worth the price. The chicken salad ($12.99) was even worse. It was oily, unappetizing, and looked like it had been sitting out for a long time. Easily the worst chicken salad I've ever had. Look at that oil! Overall, everything I purchased felt low quality and questionable in freshness. I was genuinely disgusted and surprised a place like this would sell products in this condition. I would strongly caution others before buying seafood or prepared foods here. I will not be returning.

I really wish we had had an experience as good as the other reviewers here. Our initial meeting and…read moreconversations with Chris seemed promising, but the actual experience fell very short. The week before the event, Chris told me that the food would be delivered about 30 minutes before the start time of the event so that the delivery person could help us set up. Instead, the food was delivered a few minutes PAST the start time, so that guests were arriving at the same time as the order. It was a terribly inconvenient time to be receiving the delivery, and obviously too late for help setting up. We had ordered assorted appetizers -- crudités and chips/dip. The chips and dip were literally bags of Doritos and etc -- without even bowls to put them in -- and frito lay dips. Like the kind we could have bought at the grocery store for far less. Moreover, one of the items we ordered (pasta salad) was totally forgotten. All of this could have been OK if Chris had handled it better afterwards. I let him know the following day about the mix ups and inconveniences, and didn't receive a response for a few days. At the very least, if you have someone else handling a job, you should reach out to find out if it went OK before the client has to reach out to you. His eventual response was disinterested and perfunctory. All in all, we feel ripped off and cheated. Other than the dessert, there was nothing delivered that we couldn't have gotten at Stop and Shop for a lot cheaper and without much more hassle. I'm really glad we had our own chips and dips to supply because it would have been very embarrassing to put out the bags of chips that were delivered. There was no compensation for the dish that was not delivered, nor any offer.

Wonderful experience with Chris and his team. They catered our family reunion barbecue at PW…read moreEstates beach and everything was smooth sailing.

As a guest, I found nothing wrong with the food. The problem, that we both agreed on, was that the staff was a bit on the rough edge side. That is something that should have been weeded out by the owner of the company when hiring and training their employees. Maybe help is hard to come by in the off-premise catering business? When planning a formal event that is will be remembered, we spend more to get the best. We imagine perfect butler service who are polite, unobtrusive and knowledgeable about the food they are passing about. Sadly, it never does really turn out that way. It was especially so with the staff at my SIL's party. They could have been fast food servers instead of high end caterers'. When a tray of appetizers was held before us at the cocktail hour, we naturally asked what was being offered. 90% of the time the staff had no idea. One even said "some kind of fish thing." The sit down dinner was good and I didn't really mind the service, it got to be a running joke at our table so they were quite entertaining! (Not is a good way tho) My sister in law, was furious. So, here is my opinion: If you are planning a formal event and are planning to spend quite a bit of money, while you are there, planning it with the manager/owner, specifically ask about the service staff and make a point that you want more of a fine dining type staff and not an In and Out burger employee.

If you're looking for a place to celebrate your special day on Long Island then this is the place to do it. It's in a serene beautiful neighborhood. The mansion is able to blend a classic and modern look with a lot of space. Whether you're having a fully indoor ceremony or prefer something outdoor, Royalton has you covered. The team there was gracious, helpful and lots of fun. They definitely helped reduce the craziness that comes with a wedding. The suite where the groomsman hung out was really nice, had a great fireplace and a tv to pass the time of what is always a very long day. The room where the ceremony was held was beautifully lit, intimate and was truly catered towards my friend and his wife. You almost feel at home. The grounds are ripe with scenery for photos and even some nice spots when you want to take a step out and collect yourself. The food was phenomenal. Get the fillet if you have the option. I would very much recommend this space to anyone whose looking to have an experience that makes you feel like royalty. I want to thank the team there for being so gracious and helpful. I'd left my coat there before heading back to my hotel and went back to get it the next day. One of the managers who helped us during the wedding was there bright and early and was able to help me find it. 10/10 recommend.

A combination of land and sea--Filet Mignon with Arugula and Horseradish Goat Cheese (amazing!), Outer Banks Crab Cakes with mustard caper sauce, and Crisp Coconut Shrimp with chili lime sauce (mouth watering as I recall them). As a vegetarian option, the Brie & Roasted Shallot Tart with caramelized fig chutney went so well with the red wine I was drinking. Other good gnoshing with their Classic Antipasto platter and a couple of platters of Shrimp Cocktail. For the main course, we had Tuscan Chicken with artichokes, and sage in a lemon butter sauce, along with a Penne Pasta with Prosciutto, grana and peas in a light tomato cream sauce, and huge platter of grilled vegetables. They cut up the chicken small enough so that you didn't need a knife, making it easier to eat in a cocktail setting. The entrees hit the spot and weren't too heavy after all the appetizers.
