    Interior

    This spot has been on my places-to-try list for some time and we finally made it here for a birthday dinner. As a bookworm, I enjoyed the decor and the Gatsby vibes of the spot - very swanky. We had reservations and were seated promptly. Our waitress was very nice and attentive, bringing us our drinks and food promptly. The food was really good! The Grille Octopus app was fantastic! We went with Lamb and Pork Chops as our entrees - I preferred the Lamb to the Pork, way more tender and flavorful. Drinks were unique but a bit watered down, which wasn't too bad. Overall, this was a nice spot that I plan to revisit in the summer so we can sit outside near the water.

    Another gym friend's date night at another hot spot. Welcome to Gatsby's landing. We were pleasantly surprised with the menu and cocktails were on point. Check out the pictures for more descriptions. I had the menu items off the price fixe menu. Started with the mussels and that was a banger!! The bread was so perfect coated in garlic and went with the broth of the mussels perfectly. Next I had the short rib ravioli and it was so flavorful and you can really taste the meat of the shortrib. Sauce was well balanced and was able to cut thru the richness of the short rib and leave a very nice rounded and well balanced flavor. I had the F Scot Old Sport and not being a gin drinker it was so smooth and delicious. Drink was so good that I got a second one before the main came. Wifey got the lobster bisque - I got to try some but I think I prefer more lobster in my bisque. The flavor was on point. For her main, she got the lamb shank and Yukon gold mashed potatoes and asparagus; had I known it was gonna be as good I would have ordered the same thing. The lamb was phenomenal. And finally for dessert we opted for the strawberries and the sorbet trio. Sorbet was Perfectly light and a great way to end the night. Service was impeccable and everything was very well executed. Their main menu was really extensive and I can't wait to go back and try more of it.

    This restaurant has everything going for it except the food. The location directly on Roslyn duckpond is absolutely stunning. The interior of the restaurant is also quite acceptable. I just wish the food matched it. On a Labor Day weekend we came at 5 o'clock and the restaurant was quite empty. I usually go by the parking lot rules if there's a lot of cars there that means it's a good restaurant. The parking lot was empty. After requesting an outdoor table, we were seated promptly and the staff were right on it. The staff ate attentive, polite, and overall quite good. We ordered calamari for an appetizer. For dinner, We had shrimp stuffed ravioli and I had pasta with scallops and mussels. The calamari were so big that you could almost fit your hand through them, which made them ultra tough we had to cut them with a knife to get them small enough to eat When we cut them small enough they were quite tasty and the sauces were delightful. OK, let's talk about dinner. The ravioli had a yellow interior which was quite weird. We asked the waiter if this was OK and he said it was with shrimp. I thought shrimp were white, not yellow! The pasta with muscles and scallop, I think the top of the pepper container fell off. I spent a half hour scraping off the pepper flakes. Only savior was I like pepper. Clearly after this we had to go get some type of dessert to wash down the very unusual flavors, just not here. Maybe that's why the restaurant was empty. Maybe it was a holiday weekend I don't know. Finally, the price one cocktail one beer, one appetizer two entrées with Tax and tip $150

    26 dollars for 5 shrimp, but quality was good

    I try to avoid leaving negative reviews and usually just don't return to places that disappoint me, but I felt this one was necessary given the experience. I took my family to Gatsby's Landing for Mother's Day and spent around $450 for 6 people (6 entrees, 3 appetizers, 2 beers, and 1 cocktail). From the start, the table was not properly set -- we had no cups, plates, or utensils, and even the bread runner had to step in to bring us plates. Service throughout was very slow and inattentive; we were barely checked on and our water was never refilled. Our food also took over an hour to arrive. When the food finally came, about half of the entrees were cold. The pasta was hard and seemed undercooked or reheated, the steak was bland, and the oysters were very small (nothing like previous pictures) and did not seem fresh, especially for the price. Even the cocktail, which was close to $20, barely had any alcohol. To their credit, the manager did try to make things right by remaking a pasta dish, and they honored my request for a window seat with a nice view, which I appreciated. However, by that point most of the table was already ready to leave after a long wait. Overall, for the price and occasion, the food and service fell far short of expectations and what should have been a special Mother's Day dinner was very disappointing.

    Branzino is gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free
    Mayra L.

    Came here for lunch. The place was exactly what we were looking for... Inexpensive, elegant, and romantic atmosphere! The place was busy on weekends but wasn't busy on weekdays. The service and food were amazing! The food was fresh and came out fast. Their menu has many options to offer, including gluten-free, soy-free, and dairy-free options. Good thing that the complimentary bread with olive oil is gluten free, dairy free, and soy free. I had Mussels Pots, Branzino, Assorted Fresh Fruit, and a cappuccino with almond milk. Others had something else, which I had no interest in remembering. We would come back again and highly recommend you check out this place if you are in Roslyn.

    Branzino, Rigatoni Ragu, Truffle Fries, and Grass Fed Beef Short Ribs
    Ben L.

    This place makes me sad, my friends took me here for my bday and the restaurant itself is beautiful and even though it was the evening, it was right on the lake so the daytime views should be amazing. As a whole, the food had no flavor, I am usually the first to say something is a bit salty but this might be the first time i ever dined out and felt everything was under seasoned and that says a lot. The food: Rigatoni Ragu- Veal, pork ragu, Parmigiano and marjoram. This was the favorite dish of the evening from all three of us but the one noticeable issue was the pasta was slightly undercooked. I would say if the pasta was cooked an extra 45 seconds, it would have been perfect. We all really enjoyed the flavor. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=rMIw3fxYVtVVsiI-G2Px0Q Grass Fed Beef Short Rib- Braised Beef Short Rib, whipped mashed potato, Truffle Chimichurri. This was a recommendation from our waiter and on paper, it should have been automatically good but it fell short in a few different areas. First, the short rib itself was tender but it had no flavor, it lacked that nice rich beefy flavor. The biggest issue I had were the potatoes, they literally tasted like a boiled potato, smashed then served on the plate. It tasted like they forgot to add salt, butter, cream, anything to give it flavor. Also, the texture of the potato was off too, it felt the potato was oddly seperating. Branzino- Pan-Seared Mediterranean Sea Bass, Fennel Puree, Baby Spinach, Sauce Vierge. The fish was fine but it was missing that nice crispy skin you look for on any pan fried fish dish. And similar to the potatoes above, the spinach had zero seasoning and zero flavor, I don't even think they added oil to cook it in. Truffle Fries- Shaved Parmesan. These were fine but they could have been hotter, they could also have been crunchier. The fries were relatively thin and it was shocking it wasn't more crispy.

    The stars are mostly for the service. The wait staff, host, and manager were all incredibly attentive, making sure every table had a great experience. The menu offers a little something for everyone, so you're bound to find something that catches your eye. We happened to hit the brunch rush, so while service started off quick and attentive, it did slow down a bit toward the end--which was understandable given how busy it was. The open kitchen concept was a nice touch, letting us see the chefs in action. As for the food, the octopus was a standout--great flavor and a generous portion. The duck, on the other hand, was disappointing since there was barely any meat but it was tasty so just note you may need two orders. The Brussels sprouts were missing the balsamic glaze they were supposed to have, so we had to ask for more. The shrimp egg frittata was slightly overcooked, but the crab squid ink pasta had a rich, flavorful taste, and you could tell the pasta was homemade. The space itself is well laid out with a comfortable atmosphere, and the bar area is a great spot to grab a drink.

    The burger and the Fradiavolo seafood and spaghetti
    M B.

    Quite possibly the best burger I've ever had. $28 is a little steep for a lowly hamburger but this, ladies and gentlemen, is anything but. Yes, the burger is charred on a grill but the mixture of the rare and savory Italian Taleggio cheese was a masterstroke. Bacon? No mere bacon here. More like pork belly! Smokey and salty. Arugula finished it off with a little corniche. BUT WAIT! The truffle fries, to die for. My friend got the special Fradiavolo with seafood - scallops cooked to perfection with mussels in a spicy sauce. We shared the baked clams and they were (as is so often the case) NOT overcooked but had a good texture- not just a glob of breadcrumbs. The view though, is what really sets this place apart. And it's dog friendly if you're seated in back so there's that, too. Service checked in on us no less than 5 times. Can't wait to return!

    Gatsby's Smores Sundae Apple cranberry crisp
    Melanie B.

    This long awaited review is from my January visit for Restaurant Week. I've seen tons of press about this location, so was happy to see delicious options on their Restaurant Week menu and immediately made a reservation on Open table. We didn't have a problem finding parking but with their unassuming storefront, we would've walked right past it. Once inside, it was a glamorous interior opening to a bar. We were greeted and immediately taken to our booth by the kitchen. A dark dining room with nicely placed lighting, set a romantic mood. Behind me, was another room with a view of the water, which at nighttime was so serene. We had looked at the menu prior to arrival, so ordering was easy. Our server, a gorgeous young man, had taken our order. Turns out he is Glenn's (the owners) son! He welcomed us and was very pleasant and professional. We started with the arugula apple salad, which had nice crisp slices of apple, along with huge chunks of blue cheese. The vinaigrette was the perfect amount. We also ordered the artisanal flatbread which peaches, mascarpone and a balsamic glaze. So yummy!! My friend and I both got the lamb shank served over mashed potatoes with broccolini. Fall off the bone! Delicious, especially because I don't eat lamb often. As for dessert, the signature s'mores sundae was a must and presented so nicely in a clear cup to see the layers. The fruit crisp needed a scoop of vanilla ice cream. No complaints, we finished it all. Dining here was a treat and I can't wait to return!

    Welcome to Gatsby's landIng
    Joel H.

    My wife and I really took advantage of restaurant week and visited a lot of shops that we have wanted to try for a while. Gatsby's Landing was on the list so we stopped in for dinner. A 10 minute ride for us in an area I have been coming to for 50+ years. Roslyn has a very conveniently located parking lot on Old Northern Blvd. ja few stores away from the restaurant. Just a beautiful location facing Gerry Park (The old Roslyn Duck Pond). A very comfortable venue and an open kitchen makes it a fun spot. It was a very complete restaurant menu for the "RW specials." Extremely easy ordering. Everything was fantastic. All food was extremely FRESH-TASTY with delicious sauce. The service was perfect with our very attentive waiter and an extremely friendly general manager. It was obvious that many people here are regular customers. - BAKED CLAMS OREGANATA- Bread Crumbs, Oregano, Garlic - GRASS FED BEEF SHORT RIB - Braised Beef Short Rib, Whipped Mashed Potato, Truffle Chimichurri - BRANZINO- Pan-Seared Mediterranean Sea Bass, Fennel Puree, Baby Spinach, Sauce Vierge - CHEESE CAKE - Honey, Fresh Berries, Whipped Cream All in all this was a great dining experience and we are looking forward to a return trip. KUDO's to the team at Gatsby's Landing.

    I see there is an outdoor patio? are small dogs allowed?

    YES

    How accommodating is the restaurant when it comes to food allergies?

    I'm sure if you call and let them know they would be more than accommodating!

    I'm curious to know if you think it would be suitable for a large party in the main dining room for approximately 75-80 people. I know the pond room is private but it's not large enough. Considering they're open for lunch- would it be fitting?

    Hi Jennifer, From what I saw I don't believe the room is large enough.… 

    Is this place good for 30-something's to mingle and meet?

    I think it's more date night or chill out, eat good food and relax. Laidback atmosphere.

Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate, which obviously isn't the restaurant's fault. What WAS incredibly disappointing was their solution: instead of seating us inside the actual restaurant, they walked us over to a completely separate, off-premise catering room nearby. We were literally the ONLY people sitting in this random room. It felt like we had been removed from the restaurant entirely and stuck in an overflow event space and not exactly the birthday dinner or Felice experience we made a reservation for. What made it worse was the host's attitude. Despite there appearing to be plenty of available tables inside the actual restaurant, she flat-out refused to seat us there and essentially told us we could either sit in the catering room or go somewhere else. No apology, no attempt to accommodate us, and honestly just incredibly dismissive and rude. It was such a bizarre and unwelcoming way to treat first-time guests. The food at least started off strong. The bruschetta and eggplant were both great! For dinner, we had the chicken Milanese and cacio e pepe, and neither was anything special. Our server was nice and the service itself was pretty good so I don't want that to go unnoticed BUT being shoved into an empty catering room and basically told to take it or leave it by the host completely overshadowed the rest of the night. For somewhere we were genuinely excited to try, it was an awful first impression and definitely not the experience we expected.

For entree, I got the burger which was perfectly cooked but did not have any seasoning so be sure to add some sauce of your liking. It did come with fries that were beautifully fried and seasoned.

He never came to get our dessert order. Mind you and folks bringing the food and filling water and removing plates were very good and we avail ourselves out of their service to fetch the waiter. The seats were comfortable the lighting bright and the piped in music and cacophony of chortling diners a bit overbearing. Couldn't hear or be heard--frankly that was not a big deal since nobody really wants to hear what I have to say anyhow and nobody was revealing the directions to some hidden treasure. Please do not put 10 people at a table for 8...we were packed around the table like sardines. Numerous times when I was cutting my steak someone knocked into me and I easily could have sliced off a finger. The appetizers-- the calamari was absolutely perfect. Cooked perfectly and seasoned just right and also the coating was adherent and did not slough off when I cut the rings in half or champed on them. The friend zucchini is a signature appetizer for them but the garlic sauce steals the show! The meal--I ordered the fillet with an extra robust char and said medium would be fine. It came blue rare. No waiter to be found to cook it more but the bus person obliged. When it came back it was still rate but at that point I didn't have it in me. It came with a beautiful bulb of garlic! I applied the garlic and some butter and blue cheese dressing to the steak and with or without this amalgam it was amazing! Really worth all the logistics and service shortcomings. The creamed spinach was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The coconut cake was dense and rich--in a good way! It was delicious and I highly recommend it. I would have given the restaurant 4+ stars but the noise and poor waitstaff performance knocked it down to 3.

Seating inside or outside, for dinner or lounging, plus plenty of parking in their own lot.

    Great venue for music but the food & service have a lot to be desired…read more Don't try and question your food as the staff will question you right back!! Ordered a burger & fries that comes with a 'special' sauce which I asked to be left off - both the burger and handful of fries had too much salt and seasoning - I was immediately sick from it. Went to the bar for a glass of wine asked them to add ice which they pulled from the same area holding wine, beer bottles & cans - not exactly sanitary!! No thanks!! For the prices they're charging they need to be more customer friendly and definitely follow sanitation standards!! The music though is fabulous!!!

    Update from 16 months ago. Again, we weren't guests of the hotel, just came for the nightclub and…read moredining. As promised last time, we thought we might even return for an unknown (to us) act. Tonight it was Cantor Talya Smilowitz (Julliard trained, mother, cantor and nightclub singer). Our friends had seen her singing at a Long Island temple. I'm neither an opera nor temple song fan, but Talya was just great! She concentrated mostly on Carol King and Joni Mitchell songs, but threw in some songs from bygone eras, like "Someone to Watch Over Me" (Ella Fitzgerald singing Gershwin) and other diva ballads of more recent vintage. After I got home, I checked her out on YouTube and she does a great job on Mariah Carey's "I'll Be There." She had a guest Cantor for a few songs, "Melissa Berman," and was accompanied on guitars by Stuart Markus from Gathering time (the act we saw last year) and an electric piano player who seemed to be able to play any song that ever was popular. The food was different in that there were some Indian dish choices, but we enjoyed it. It's nice to be able to have dinner and/or drinks while watching a live show with an audience of maybe eighty. The tickets were $53 each ($20 more than last year). There was no WiFi unless you had a room number, so you had to go outside to get Internet. The atmosphere is much nicer than the original "My Father's Place" (1970s-1980's) and I believe the original owner still runs the show.

    Besito is probably one of my favorite Mexican restaurants on Long Island. It is a rather noisy and…read morepacked space for dinner but the food makes up for it! Never skip the guac, it's absolutely amazing and so delicious. My favorites are the quesa-birria and the iron skillet mixtos. The birria tacos were so flavorful and perfect with the green salsa and dip. The cheese and meats were really delicious for the iron skillet and made the perfect fajitas. We also get the chicken enchiladas this time as well which were also very yummy. We got their gelato bowl to split after which had pistachio, dulce de leche, and dark chocolate scoops and they were amazing. Really wow'ed by the pistachio flavor and the dark chocolate was so rich. Overall, I love this restaurant and the fun worry dolls they share with you after. So glad they have two locations now.

    It saddens me to write this as we have been huge fans of Besito with regular visits for many years…read more They again changed their menu again eliminating both of our favorite entrees. We have been told by staff that they are both popular and regularly requested. Perhaps they are consolidating menu items to save on expenses, but they've lost a regular customer. To add insult to injury, today's mahi mahi was overcooked and at least 1/3 was inedible 'dark meat.' Tried to find something else, but the kitchen made the decision for us. We're done.

    Super friendly staff and great Indian food. The chicken tikka masala is a stand out, sweet and…read morecreamy. The regular naan was cooked well however I thought the onion stuffed naan was underdone and slightly doughy. The lamb Rogan Josh is well spiced for the normal patron even though I wished it was spicier for my taste. Definitely one of the best hotel restaurants that I can think of.

    Good for a hotel restaurant, but I probably wouldn't go here if I wasn't staying at The Roslyn by…read moreHilton. Well, I'm not sure how much the city of Roslyn has to offer though, so maybe it's the place to be as it got pretty packed as the evenings went on. I went once for dinner and had a pretty good shrimp cocktail with large shrimp and bland cocktail sauce, even with the extra horseradish. My seared tuna was overcooked, but had a nice flavor. Seared usually means some type of crusty charred goodness, but this didn't have it. The chai creme brûlée was good, but the sugar wasn't torched properly and didn't have that snap, crackle or pop which is what it's supposed to have. On a second night I went for cocktails which were $20 a pop! Yes, it was a bit pricey, but they were well made... with the exception of not having a luxardo cherry in "The Brooklyn". The staff was friendly and remembered me from the night before. They have a pretty good menu, and also a separate Indian menu and seemed to be a place for some local celebrations going on. Good (not great), pricey and very close to my hotel room!
