From top to bottom: Homemade Mac & Cheese, String beans, Cabbage with bacon
Melissa C.

Amazing comfort food for my soul! I really needed this reminder of how homemade food feeds the mind, body & soul. The seafood bique was delicious with lobster meat, shrimp & crab leg meat. I loved the fact that it wasn't thick and heavy. It was savory and flavorful. I had 2 big bowls and still craved more. The fish bites were so fresh and yummy, my 5-year old daughter devoured all of it in one seating. Next time I will double up on the fish bites and shrimp burger! That's how delicious they were. Gretel & Sons definitely deserves my Yummylicious Stamp of Approval! Two thumbs up!!!

Wings, Rasta pasta, yams and Mac & cheese

Great hospitality and customer service. Beautiful to see a family work so well together and seem to enjoy what they do. It definitely shows in the quality of their food. Everything was immaculate 10/10 on everything we tried from mains, to sides, the bread, the desert, and fresh lemonade/limeade. Can't wait to go back

While waiting for my son to finish rock climbing, I stumbled upon this place, which is next door. It was Sunday, 20 minutes before they close so I wasn't expecting to get much. I did really wanted to try their famous, sweet potato bread- 1 of the sons offered to warm up a slice for me to try with honey butter on top- It was very good and I ended up getting the small loaf to bring home. He even gave me extra honey butter on the side. A few days later, I came back to try their sticky honey garlic wings, fried fish bites, mac n cheese, yams (mashed) and of course, more sweet potato bread. I placed my order over the phone and they were so nice & accommodating, all the food was ready as promised and everything was delicious especially the wings- tasted like double fried Korean wings but better & crisper, mac n cheese was super cheesy, fish bites were tasty and mashed yams were creamy & rich. Can't wait to come back for more- honey garlic wings :P Seriously, the best soul food you'll ever have!

Black Label Burgers is located on Old Country Rd in Westbury, NY. There are plenty of parking…read morespots. We walked in and ordered at the counter. Since we were dining in, they gave us a table number and we placed it in the holder so staff know where to bring the food. Our order didn't take very long to arrive to our table, just about 10 minutes. After finishing your meal, you bus your own table. The menu has options for burgers, hot dogs, fries, salads, shakes, floats, and desserts. I ordered a Yellow Label Burger ($13.45) and a Strawberry shake ($6.75). My husband and I shared a Farm Salad ($9.75). The Yellow Label Burger comprises of USDA Prime Beef, homemade fried mac n cheese patty, lettuce, tomato on a potato bun. This was delicious! I liked how after biting into the crispy, breaded exterior it gives way to a hot, molten cheese center that oozes perfectly over beef. The Farm Salad which consisted of spring mix, tomato, blue cheese crumbles, sliced almonds, dried cranberries, and raspberry vinaigrette on the side was also very very very tasty, fresh, and a good portion. The strawberry shake was also very good and had pieces of strawberries. Black Label Burgers pride on only using USDA Prime Angus beef that comes from a single source, Double R Ranch, located in Washington State, a family-owned farm known for its responsible practices and superior beef. You can definitely taste the richness and juiciness of the beef. My husband had the Red Label Burger ($13.25) and the PB&J shake ($7.75). He really enjoyed his meal as well. I really liked the inside decor and the laid back vibes. Black Label Burgers is great for a quick lunch, a night out with friends, or a family dinner. I am looking forward to my next visit.

I liked the local (Long Island) themed decor, friendly service, spacious parking lot, wide variety of self-serve beverages (tangy lemonade - yay!) and nicely padded booths. Definitely a cut above competitors like Shake Shack in that regard. I chose the signature black label burger made with dry aged beef and regular fries. While the hand cut fries were wonderfully crispy and flavorful, the burger was kind of disappointing - not terrible, but the bun tasted stale and the meat was very bland. Also I ordered the burger cooked medium but it came out pink in the center, not my preference for chopped meat. Maybe I ordered the wrong item? I plan to try other menu items in the future to see if they hit my taste buds differently.

The one thing I love about using the Yelp app to discover hidden gems is that you never know where…read moreit will take you. That being said, on September 23rd I was in search of something new and exciting and I was guided to Thomas's Ham & Eatery. I have passed Thomas's Ham & Eatery over a dozen times, and thought that the parking lot was rather small so I just kept it moving. Driving into the confined area, I found parking immediately with room to spare. Stepping inside of Thomas's Ham & Eater, a wave of happiness hit me--bright, sudden, and uplifting, like the effervescence from a freshly popped bottle of champagne. The happy atmosphere of the dining area was so contagious I immediately followed suit and put on a happy face. Looking around the restaurant and soaking it all in , I saw tons of people enjoying their meal while listening to groovy sounds such as; The Eagles - Peaceful Easy feeling, Bonnie Tyler- Total Eclipse of my heart, and so much more, but I got overly excited when Elton John & Kiki Dee's- Don't Go Breaking My Heart came on. I was in full sing along mode as I was seated. Now, I would love to talk about the food and service. The restaurant was clean and tables were freshly wiped. My waitress provided impeccable service as she stayed in catering mode. She supplied everything that I needed with kindness and passion. She was very patient and did not mind coming back to see when I was actually ready to order after looking over the menu. I went totally off the grid and ordered Cajun Omelette. It consisted of Louisiana Andouille Sausage (LAS), Tomato, Scallions & Green Peppers, and served with Home Fries & Toast- $16.45. Despite the small amount of LAS, the omelette was a grand slam. I really enjoyed it, the home fries had a few peppers and onions and just enough burn to let you know that they were not entirely overcooked but you will have that crunch. I did ask for lite butter on the rye toast, instead I received enough butter to lubricate bicycle gears, I scrapped it off and kept it moving, no harm no foul, keeping a positive vibe. The coffee was just as good and I really enjoyed it as well. I give Thomas's Ham & Eatery 3 1/2 stars but the atmosphere and tone boosts it up to 5 stars, I will definitely be returning for another HAPPY MEAL! Inspire more, Yelp more!

There is a particular kind of restaurant that understands its job is not to dazzle you into silence…read morebut to make conversation easier. The Shed, on Merrick Avenue, is that kind of place. The dining room is anchored by an olive tree that rises improbably from the center of the floor, its branches catching the light from a constellation of milk-glass globes. Along the bar, bottles glow against whitewashed brick, and the marble counter is set with striped linen napkins. The effect is part farmhouse and part supper club, and it is more inviting than either would be on its own. The menu favors familiar dishes executed with care. A glazed salmon arrives lacquered and deeply caramelized at the edges, resting on wilted spinach and a bright hash of corn, peas, and shallot, all bound by a butter sauce worth chasing with a fork. The fish sandwich is a study in restraint: a well-seasoned, pan-crisped fillet, a soft brioche bun, and a tangle of slaw, with a plump pickle and coleslaw alongside, as tradition demands. Dessert is where The Shed allows itself some indulgence. A dense, fudgy brownie, dusted with powdered sugar and set beside a scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into chocolate sauce, recalls childhood without apology. Notably, the restaurant takes its non-alcoholic drinks seriously. The mocktail list is broad and thoughtful, a welcome gesture of hospitality toward diners who would rather skip the spirits without skipping the fun. Service, led on this evening by a warm and unhurried server, matched the room. Tables linger here, and no one seems to mind. The Shed isn't trying to reinvent anything. It simply does the familiar things well, in a room that makes you want to stay for another round of dessert and another hour of talk.

Great local burger place with orders actually cooked to order…read more Reasonable prices, consistently delicious burgers and great service. The fries are not only good but generous in size for the price. Looking for something a little different? Try the sweet potato tots that are dusted with cinnamon sugar. Try the black & white milk shake for a bit of nostalgia, try a black & white milkshake. Hands down one of the best locally owned eateries around. Shame on the landlord for allowing shake shack to move in next door. Let's keep supporting our local family owned businesses that have been the back bone of Long Island. My family & I will continue to support Burger City and I encourage others to do the same.

I had a double quarter pounder and fries both excellent. Don't worry about parking, enough spots to put your car to take out or dine in. A warning ahead of time if you are picking up, when you order online for take out USE BURGER CITY'S WEBSITE!!! I made the mistake by using a different platform and I paid way more for take out, for delivery use another platform, Burger City does not deliver. This spot is legit. Glad I found them during my stay in Long Island. O, and ask for the City Sauce and plenty of it, it's the best!

Theres a lot of great stuff going on with the meal. I ordered the Brazilian Burger. Did not…read moredisapoint. First off, the fries themselves might actually deserve their own review. They were just how I like them. Crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. As for the burger. This thing was massive. The Brazilian burger has a lot of unique toppings on it that brought it the extra mile. The bacon and the potatos had a really rich crispiness. This really amplified the burger's texture profile when paired with softer ingredients like the ham and the egg. The bun was nice and toasty as well, which is something I always appreciate. Despite all the different ingredients, they never took away from the main event. The patty. Amazing grill work. It was cooked perfectly, and really captured all those classic and iconic sensations you are looking for in a good burger. Super juicy and tender, and it nailed that savory, caramelized meaty flavor. You can really tell that a lot of care was put into the meal. While I will say the burger was a bit messy, that is to be expected when this thing is absolutely loaded with diffent stuff. Also, trust me its worth a bit of a mess. Overall, this hole in the wall spot is a place I'd highly reccomend if you are in the area, and looking for a good, filling meal after work.

This is exactly how a business can lose stars…read more Going in to dine on Friday 2/20/26 my plus one and I had a entirely different experience from the first visit, in which the female employee influenced our return and patronage. Dressed casually in this casual setting that was well lit. We came to take advantage of a deal that was advertised "combo BOGO 50% off" within the hours of the promotion, but we were taken advantage of! Asking the employee for the advertised combo he specifically and directly point at the sandwich menu which was significantly higher priced starting at $18. It looks like a steak sandwich, I asked if it was a burger, he stated that it comes like a burger. So we each ordered that and with onion rings. He stated that they come with French fries, we said we wanted to have onion rings for an extra charge. I'm starting to notice a language comprehension challenge in the exchange as he kept saying that the sandwich comes with fries, He later confirms our order minus fries and stated that there's $.75 extra. Sitting down viewing the aesthetics as stated previously, we started observing the menu closer and noticed that the menu says " burger combos" starting at $11. Questions does arise about the promo. Talking to the employee, asking why does the menu say combo and you pointed to the sandwich, his reply was that sandwiches are the only combos that they have. I replied but that sign says sandwiches and the other menu says burger combos and you pointed to the sandwiches, why would you point to the sandwich. I was looking for his guidance into the right direction. If looks could kill, he'd be serving a life sentence. I interpreted the look as he was caught in a trap with no way out because he said they only had one combo. So he admitted, after interrogation that we could have ordered the P. S Burger combo. His tactics to spend my money was misleading in every shape form or fashion. The sandwiches (not a burger even though it looked like a burger) had chunks of steak and was falling apart every time you bit into it, leaving chunks of meat in your mouth, that you must now negotiate in order not to choke. We could have walked away happy and satisfied spending $18 minus tax. Instead I spent $18 on one sandwich for a total of $28.5. ( 2 orders of onion rings and the BOGO) To add, they bring you the food, put a tip jar out, and expect you to tip on top of being taken for $10 extra. So the extra went into revenue, not the tip jar. I actually thought P.S Burger would add to our palate but it's just not going to work out. The employee's actions led us to spend more than intended, and that affected the overall experience. But still.... Inspire more, Yelp more!
