I don't usually write reviews, but I felt like I needed to share this experience. I went in for…read morelunch today (4/25/26) and overall had a really great time. The bartenders Marina and Joey were attentive, quick, and clearly very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks, which made everything smooth and enjoyable. However, one moment really stood out for the wrong reasons. A manager approached the bartenders and began yelling at them in front of guests. Even though it was off to the side, it was still very noticeable and uncomfortable to witness. Situations like that should be handled privately, either in the back or after a shift, but not in front of customers. It came across as unprofessional and honestly, disrespectful. As a guest, it affects the atmosphere and gives insight into how staff are treated, which matters. Aside from that incident, everything else about the experience was great. I just hope management takes a more respectful approach moving forward. Thanks Marina and Joey!

Went for Mother's Day and we had to get the high tower which was good, I think it was priced high for what it was. Shrimp sandwich was my favorite. Why I'm not rating it higher: I made the reservation 2 weeks before Mother's Day, the only thing available was a 10:45am so I took it. They called me two days before to confirm and said they had a 1:30 available, I started asking questions about the food more being suited toward lunch or breakfast, a bit snippy they put me on hold, I txt my wife quick and she said take the 1:30, the woman gets back on the phone and says sorry someone on the other line just took the 1:30... I said.... What! I was offered it and didn't give you an answer yet. She didn't care and was very dismissive. Won't be returning,

The food is except and reasonably priced. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. There are many restaurants in town but I would say this is the only restaurant my whole family likes and my kids are picky eaters. Overall a great restaurant and you can't go wrong with their Sayville sauce.

I had heard a lot of good things about Howard's and had high hopes but was not impressed…read more Took forever to get our shrimp cocktail app and when we did get it the shrimp were room temperature. Also took forever to get our entrees not sure why since the place was not that crowded. My daughter ordered a steak medium and it was more like rare and very tough.

I had to go to the UPS store (avoided rude unpleasant character in Shirley), and saw Howard's Cafe. Looked it up here, seemed great. Went in, and greeted by really NICE people! And they have GLUTEN-FREE rolls! Caryn came to seat me and take my order. She was the BEST! She didn't know if the turkey burgers had breadcrumbs, so I went with the grilled chicken. I also decided that I deserved bacon, so got the Mary, Mary topping--bacon, mushrooms, and sautéed onions. Entrees come with a salad, which arrived in a bowl topped by another bowl, with two things of dressing and croutons on the side. Caryn didn't think that I could have the croutons, and she was right. The salad was iceberg lettuce, which I hadn't had in YEARS, lol, with tomato and red onion. And a shaker of BAC-O's!! Oh my. Hadn't had those in 30 years. Very salty, which explains why. There was a choice of skinny fries (boo), steak fries, or sweet potato fries. I got the steak fries, which were wedges. Yum! The grilled chicken was yummy and generous, the bun was TOASTED (yay), and the toppings piled high. So good! A tad dry, but Caryn brought me some mayo. I forgot to order cheese. Ack. This is a nice place, with a bar filled with convivial locals, a cheerful bartender, and the marvelous Caryn. There are booths and tables. The iced tea came with two slices of lemon! I was SHOCKED when I got the bill. SHOCKED. It was $20.06 for a LOT of food and an iced tea! I took half the sandwich home because I couldn't finish it. I did finish all the salad--and Caryn asked if I would like more (declined)--and all the fries. Astonishing. What a great value!! That seems so rare these days. I had looked at the menus of a couple of other nearby places. Very glad that I chose this one. Sad that it's not near me, but I'll be back.

Ditto on Fridays, though there is a live band with dancing. Who knew? The food is average. No one goes to a Clarion or Holiday Inn for the food, do they? If you're staying there like I was, to be near the airport, then order a hamburger or a sandwich and you'll be satisfied. The lady who tends the bar, Marianne, made my stay special and earns 5 stars. She is a work horse, and a lovely one at that. She's devoted to the clientele, many of whom are regulars. She clearly understands the meaning of providing excellent customer service and made up for the less than stellar service the Front Desk provided.

Their lobster rolls are always a hit-packed with meat and full of flavor. This time, I went with the cold lobster roll since I had a warm one earlier in the day, and it did not disappoint. The only downside? Finding a place to sit is almost always a challenge. It's a popular spot, especially on nice days, so be prepared to wait or get a little creative when it comes to snagging a table. What we really appreciate is how pet-friendly it is. The casual, outdoor setup makes it easy to bring your pup along and enjoy a meal without any fuss.
