Another phenomenal experience dining here!!! The portions are out of this world. Came here between…read morelunch and dinner and decided on the dinner menu. I had a caesar salad with lobster which was so delicious. The lobster was already shelled out so no need to worry about cracking lobster! Tasted so fresh and hit the spot. My husband got a burger and fries and no complaints there. Me and my daughter tried the fries and they were so good. My daughter inhaled her fried calamari either the cocktail sauce. Nice presentation too. I got an Arnold palmer and it was pinkish due to the pink lemonade. I am not a fan of their pink lemonade and feel regular lemonade would taste fresher and better. The service here was so on point again. Please give your Tinker Bell waitress a raise she was so great with us! I don't know her name but she was adorable and very accommodating to our table. Explained what they were out of and knew the dish well when I asked if the eggplant with the penne alla vodka was breaded. It was breaded by the way and eas delicious. It was nicely cut thin and came with this sourdough bread that was toasted and spiced so good. Not sure what the spice was but it was a warm toasty flavor. I noticed the waitress was doing a lot of work the restaurant was pretty full and she was the only waitress we saw there. Excellent job she does keeping up. If I could have left her a bigger tip I would have. I think the restaurant needs at least another waiter or waitress because of how crowded it can get. I would dine here again if I am on the island again. It's great for families and get togethers!

We also got the wings and parmesan fries. The BBQ wings were good--saucy and not too small. Fries were just meh. They're just fries and a good shareable but nothing special. The staff is so sweet and accommodating. My friends and I were here a few years back and sat at the corner table outside. Our waitress didn't hesitate to prep the table for us when we requested to sit there again. When I was here a few years back, they had nachos and they were probably the best I've ever had. Been thinking about them ever since. Petition to bring the nachos back!

Given our vacation schedule and late starts in the mornings, this definitely helps to dine when it isn't so busy. The food is fresh and not stale if you get my drift. The chicken tenders look decent and the fries were yummy. The cornbread was made here! They also have everything from bar for parents! The mussels were not gritty and the lobster was plentiful and fresh. Hands down the best restaurant on Fire Island for seafood!!

Not even ten minutes after entering, a friend of the security team was allowed inside with a fire extinguisher and began spraying it throughout the bar--including directly on people who were eating and drinking. This behavior was not only reckless but incredibly dangerous. Fire extinguisher chemicals are toxic when inhaled and can cause serious respiratory issues. Our drinks were completely ruined, and we were forced to leave immediately while covering our faces for safety. When we confronted the security team about what happened, they laughed--showing no concern for the health and safety of their customers. We will never return to this establishment. Attached is a photo of the individual in the white shirt responsible for spraying everyone.

As soon as my friend walked up the stairs we were confronted by Phil who after hearing our explanation of why we walked up grabbed my friend by the neck, tried throwing him down the stairs and kicking him relentlessly while calling for backup and the security pushed us with no regard to our story. We definitely will not be coming back here this behavior is truly disgusting and i think Phil was on drugs or had drugs upstairs definitely shady.
