I don't think I would have liked the middle tables as much but the booth was great. They had a singer who was good and not overpowering. The games were on the TVs. It was a great atmosphere. We ordered the bang bang shrimp starter. It was really good. I had lobster sliders and they gave you a lot of lobster and a side salad. My husband had a burger that he said was great. We were so full we skipped dessert but will def be back! The service was quick for a Sat night.

Our waiter Dylan was really nice and had a solid sense of humor (bonus points)! We started off with the crispy pulled pork croquettes - super unique, crispy and tasty! Rockefeller au jus - delicious sandwich - no complaints! Chicken ala vodka minis - The sauce was pretty soli, overall good. Lobster roll minis - this was my favorite dish. The lobster tasted sweet and fresh and the portion size was impressive. Tasted great as a leftover later in the day! We finished the meal off with the churros. Lovely presentation, excellent flavor and the chocolate dipping sauce was a bonus. Really enjoyed this place and looking forward to going back soon - they host special events and it seems like it would be a great option for a future party.

For as long as I can remember I have wanted to check Faraday's out. Today was the day for lunch…read morewith my dad. As expected, it was a casual pub style spot with a bar and a small dining area in the back. For this Friday afternoon, it was quite busy. It was bustling with almost all the tables taken by the time we left. Our server was friendly and upbeat. She offered suggestions based on our preferences. We both ordered the same thing - burgers. They came out quickly. The burgers were big and yummy. They satisfied our craving perfectly.

If there's one restaurant in town I've tried to give a fair shot to over the years, it's Faraday's…read moreof Smithtown. I've been here on numerous occasions hoping that maybe this would finally be the visit where everything clicked. Unfortunately, it just hasn't happened. My experiences have been so-so, and more often than not they've been slightly disappointing. My biggest complaint has always been the food. My take has been it's been bland or uninspired. The French onion soup was just ok, and seemed like no effort putting this together. No provolone cheese option when I've ordered which is crazy. The Caesar salad tasted diluted, with lettuce that seemed waterlogged rather than crisp and fresh. Just overall underwhelming. The food is not necessarily terrible, but just mediocre and forgettable. Portion size is another problem. For what you're paying, the plates often feel surprisingly small. One example of this was the "Big C Burger," which was honestly a huge letdown. With a name like that you'd expect something substantial. Instead, the burger was tiny--maybe 4-5 ounces at most. At first glance you could barely even see the meat because the bun swallowed it. I ordered it medium and it came out completely overcooked, cooked to death really. The bun didn't help either--dense, dry, and overpowering the already small patty. The whole thing just felt poorly executed. Even the little details were off. I asked for olive oil on the side for a salad and what came out was clearly some generic vegetable oil. It felt like a lazy substitution, the kind of thing that makes you question how much care is going into the kitchen overall. To be fair, the one thing Faraday's consistently gets right is the atmosphere. The restaurant is has a cozy charming space with a warm pub feel. The indoor dining area although small has character and a comfortable vibe. The outdoor area is really nice too, and perfect for setting for a nice meal on a comfortable day. Service is good. I've not had any issues with any servers ever being inattentive. Occasionally some order mixups but quickly rectified. Unfortunately, that inviting setting hasn't translated to memorable meals. After several attempts over the years, Faraday's has remained one of those places that seems like it should be good--but for me, it just never quite hits.

We ended up sitting next to the wine fridge and got to interact with anyone who came by to grab a bottle from the selection they had. Food - Since this is curated menu and will constantly change, you will have to come with an open mind to try anything. Please notify your server if you have a food allergy; they were very accommodating to my table with my food allergy and notified the kitchen staff to not cross contaminate. The food was good and it was fun to be surprised with the menu of the day. We had a curry soup, hamachi crudo, surf & turf, and a chocolate dessert. Bill - this was the downfall for the night. Out of the 4 items on the bill, 3 of them were wrong. The price was listed on the menu but the charge on the bill was more; I called ahead to know the corkage fee (which i was told was $35) was charged $45; I also was charged for an extra glass of wine when ordered only one. Be diligent when reviewing the final check of the night. On to my next adventure....

So service was very slow and sometimes confusing, but the staff remained very pleasant, friendly and apologetic. There was also a mix up with our bill that was immediately rectified.

When you're at Elaine's it feels like you are at the place to be. It buzzes and hums and yet they do a great job with the acoustics. Not too loud. I might suggest they turn the music in the dining room down, even off. No one will notice. We're here for food and drinks, and right now, in these departments, Elaine's is firing on all cylinders.

First you are served garlic bread with dipping sauces which the bread bey itself is delicious but add in the dipping sauces and it's insane!! i wish there were more than 4 pieces but given the portion sizes of the rest of our meal, I'm glad there wasn't more. For appetizers we had the fried calamari. I am not a huge calamari eater, but I will say it was fresh and not rubbery. The marinara sauce was very complimentary to the calamari without being overwhelming. For entrees we both had the rib eye steaks. My husband had the garlic mashed potatoes and I had the roasted both were excellent potato choices. The steak was seasoned perfectly. It was tender and cooked perfectly. The steaks were so large that neither of us finished ours. I also really enjoyed adding the dipping sauces from the breads to my steak. It was awesome with our without it but loved the dipping sauces! My only suggestion was I would appreciate my water glass being checked on and not having to ask for it to be refilled. Other than that service was attentive without being intrusive. We cannot wait to go back!!

Our Caesar salads were fresh and flavorful. I particularly liked the shaved parmigiana cheese on top. For our entrees, I had the rack of lamb, cooked just the way I asked for it, medium. I loved the au jus which added an another dimension to the flavor. The lamb was tender and tasty. My husband had the 12 once filet mignon rare. He was so pleased that it was served exactly as he asked for it. He raved that the filet was absolutely PERFECT! It was so tender that it practically melted in his mouth. He truly enjoyed every bite. Our waitress was attentive without being overbearing. The ambiance was dark and quiet. We both agree that we can't wait to return to The Holstein Grill Steak House for another meal. This time we'll have to save room for dessert.
