We sat at the bar and Staci was the bartender and we had such a wonderful experience. She made every drink to our liking and had great conversation. She was the best and the food was out of this world and will definitely be going back again to see Staci and the staff of Limani!! read more

I live so close by and have driven past this restaurant so many times, so last week my friend and I finally decided to stop in for dinner. First off, it's such a beautiful restaurant with outstanding service. I tried a few different cocktails, and unfortunately, they were all a miss for me. I ordered three different ones and just didn't care for any of them. Honestly, that's probably the only negative thing I have to say about this place. We started with the crab cakes, which were so good and actually full of crab. For our entrées, we had the halibut and branzino, and both were delicious. I enjoyed my meal so much that I kept thinking about it afterward and ended up coming back just a week later for lunch with my husband! They have an amazing prix fixe lunch special, and I noticed they offer a dinner special as well. This time, I tried the Greek salad, which was so fresh and crisp. The octopus was delicious and perfectly tender. My husband had the chicken souvlaki and really enjoyed it, while I went with the branzino again. It was just as good as I remembered and paired perfectly with the lemon potatoes. The lunch special also included dessert. I can't remember exactly what kind of cake it was, but it came with a scoop of ice cream on the side and was AMAZING! I ordered a cappuccino to go with it, which came out piping hot, just the way I like it, and paired perfectly with the dessert. Overall, I really love this place the food, atmosphere, and service have all been wonderful. The cocktails just aren't for me, but everything else has been excellent. I'll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend! read more

This restaurant has been one of our favorite lunch spots ever since it first opened, and over the years we've also enjoyed dinner here from time to time. Today I happened to be in the area and stopped in for their prix-fixe lunch in the early afternoon, dining by myself. It was, once again, a very pleasant experience. They begin the meal with complimentary warm pita bread served with two spreads, a simple but welcoming start. I ordered the grilled octopus and the branzino, and finished with Greek yogurt for dessert. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and nicely executed. What truly sets this restaurant apart, beyond the beautiful interior and relaxed ambiance, is the warmth of the staff. As soon as I walked in, Stephanie greeted me with a genuine smile and a warm welcome. She has a natural way of making guests feel comfortable right away. My server, Christian, was attentive, friendly, and professional, checking in regularly throughout the meal. In fact, the entire team is consistently courteous and attentive, which always makes dining here especially enjoyable. It was a lovely lunch, and I look forward to returning again whenever I'm in the area. read more

I really wanted to enjoy our visit to Limani Grille, but our experience last night fell short. We arrived at 7 PM to find the restaurant packed for Restaurant Week--something we hadn't expected. The first sign of trouble was the parking situation: we ended up nearly a five‑minute walk away in ten‑degree weather. This would have been the perfect night for valet service. On the positive side, our party of six was seated right away, and our server Josh was friendly and attentive. He let us know we could still order from the Restaurant Week prix fixe menu, which was a nice surprise. Unfortunately, the timing of the meal derailed the evening. Appetizers took about an hour to arrive, and our entrées didn't come out until another hour after that. By the time we finished eating it was 9:30 PM and we were one of the only diners left. Josh apologized and explained that they typically serve around 250 guests on a normal night, but this evening they had more than 350 diners, which clearly overwhelmed the kitchen. The food itself was good--fresh, flavorful, and well‑portioned--and the prix fixe menu offered solid value. Still, the extended delays made it hard to fully enjoy the meal. Overall, I'm torn. There were positives, but the pacing of the night left me unsure how I feel about returning to Limani Grille read more

First time here and I had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, with generous portions for the price, and the spacious seating and pleasant ambiance made it very comfortable. The service was attentive and welcoming. The oysters were incredibly fresh. My favorite drink was the green apple margarita.

My first time at this spot since it was the old Bonwit. The inside is so open, modern and bright - a big shift from the old location. They have a great lunch and dinner price fix menu, with delicious options. I had the octopus and branzino. I also highly suggest the limani chips and Spanikopita. Service was great! read more

Went for a Sunday dinner with a gift certificate. We were 3 people do we ordered a variety of items. They were all very good. All of us really enjoyed the grilled vegetable platter. Service was good and multiple people stopped by to check how everything was going. I have only 1 issue that I noticed when the bill came. I ordered an ice tea and got 1 refill during the meal. They were $6 a piece. I think that's ridiculous. I didn't notice the price on the menu (probably my own fault) but to not at least get a free refill really bothered me. We all know the effort and cost to make ice tea at home and this markup really feels like an insult. I would have rather used the $12 dollars for the staff tip that for ice tea. We did tip 25% (maybe a bit more). It's not the money that irritates me but the fact that I felt I was kind of insulted. read more

I've been here a few times and finally decided to write a review. The décor is absolutely stunning and makes the whole experience feel special. Service is always on point our server Jennifer was super attentive and made us feel well taken care of. I had the sangria (always a favorite!) and tried the $29 prix fixe lunch. Totally worth it the salmon with lemon potatoes was delicious, and the warm, fresh pita bread was the perfect touch. This spot never disappoints, and I know I'll keep coming back. Highly recommend! read more

What a beautiful restaurant, my wife & I walked in and it felt like we were on a cruise ship. Limani Grille took over the Bonwit Inn, the once in a blue moon spot that you went to on special occasions. Now the restaurant is more accessible, after looking at the menus, they have an amazing lunch special for $29 or early bird price fixe dinner for $37. My wife was able to meet me early for dinner so I made a reservation so we can enjoy the price fixe dinner. Once seated and looking over the cocktail menu, I like how they put a Greek spin on classic cocktails. I ordered the Kyrios, made with Jack Daniel's Gentleman Jack Straight Tennessee Whiskey, add a splash of blood Orange bitters and topped with an orange peel? Greek style all day baby, Opa! We ordered the 3 course meal and I chose Greek Salad, Branzino and Karidopita. Greek Salad I felt like a little kid being served a mammas burger at McDonalds. What part of Greece did this salad come from, the punishment islands? I never had a Greek Salad with big chunks of tomatoes along with big chunks of raw onions. It was a plate of sadness. Branzino When Jesus casted out his net? Most likely it was filled with Branzino. This is a mild flavored fish from the Mediterranean, a boney dish and I'd say 98% of the bones were removed. It's still my favorite fish dish and Limani Grille cooked it perfectly. Karidopita cake with a scoop of ice cream Heaven! Sooo good, the cake is a walnut sponge cake, and the warm spices like cinnamon, cloves and honey syrup makes this an unbelievable dessert. Limani Grille, I promise not to make our visits for special occasions. We had a great dinner and can't wait to enjoy more meals with friends and family. read more

Limani Grille is one of those restaurants that you want to gatekeep because how could you share anything so precious with another human, but then you remember that others deserve the grace of God so you brag about the lifechanging dining experience that you've had. So, on with the details. I booked a reservation for my boyfriend's birthday dinner. We were politely greeted and promptly seated. The place is absolutely gorgeous! The attention to detail, the colors, the thought that went into executing such a versatile and beautiful dining room - well done! Not to mention the consistency with of the excellent service that continued throughout the evening. Now, on to the food. WHAT A MEAL! We began with an order of clams, a crab cocktail, and Pita with Skordalia. The clams were very flavorful, the crab was quite fresh, and the skordalia spread was magical. For entrees, I had the salmon with veggies and lemon potatoes, and my boyfriend had the seafood pasta. Both meals were incredibly perfect from conception to execution to digestion lol. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and immediately placed Limani Grille in our top 5 favorite restaurants. Do yourself a favor and visit this place sooner than later. read more

Great to visit for lunch! The vibe and decor of the restaurant is upscale and classy. I would recommend due to the pleasant and attentive service, tasty food, and appealing pre fixe deals they offer. I ordered the octopus (my favorite thing I tried), the branzino, and the karidopita. When I visited it was during restaurant week and the person I was with mentioned the portion sizes we received were smaller than their usual lunch deals which I felt I had to note. However, we had a lovely time and will be back. They have a good range of options on the menu so there will definitely be something for everyone! read more

Tried Limani Grille based off a recommendation from @liactivityplanner on insta! What a delightful treat for a Saturday night dinner with my friend & her 2 granddaughters. The food was amazing as well as the drinks & the ambience in the restaurant was awesome with some intimate dining spots an upstairs & a very attentive staff. We started with drinks, the picante strawberry margarita & the red & white sangrias. Then we had the calamari & Mac & cheese. For the main we ordered the scallops with lemon potatoes, the limani burger & the filet mignon souvlaki which all came with some awesome tasting fries. For dessert we had the Ekmek & Karidopita. Our waitress Vivian was very attentive & knowledgeable about the specials. She made every effort to accommodate us even though there was no kids menu! read more

Reached Limani for an early dinner. The place was cozy and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The cocktail with the fig vodka and pomegranate juice was amazing. Their zucchini crisps were amazing, could not stop myself from completing the basket. I got the dinner special. I chose the chicken lemon soup, branzino and the cake. All of the items were amazing, I did not leave a drop or morsel of food. The branzino whole fish was cooked perfectly and was sublime. We had a great time here. read more

Limani Grille in Commack has a lot of potential but my overall experience landed right in the middle. The restaurant itself is very nice with a clean and polished ambience that feels a bit upscale without trying too hard. The space is open, bright, and welcoming, and it definitely has the look of a place where you'd expect a great dining experience. The food was good in some areas and average in others. Some dishes had great flavor while others felt a little underwhelming for the price point. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out in a memorable way either. The service was just okay. The staff was polite enough but not very attentive. There were long stretches where no one checked in and it sometimes felt like the tables around us were getting more attention. Nothing went wrong but it didn't feel organized or engaged the way you'd hope at a restaurant with this atmosphere. Overall Limani Grille is fine for a casual night out if you're already in the area and want something decent in a nice setting, but based on my visit it didn't quite reach the level I expected. With a little more consistency and more attentive service it could easily be a stronger experience. read more

Service: Attentive but clumsy. The server I had came around to always check on me to see if I ever needed anything. The only downside was how clumsy they were. They broke a glass while trying to serve another drink; shards were on the table and haphazardly cleaned up. Food: Mussels - Must get. The mussels were clean and the broth was perfectly seasoned. The gems of garlic slivers were scattered within the broth which paired very nicely. Wagyu New York Strip - So-So. I do have to mention that getting fish could be the better option, so get the fish before the steaks. This NY Strip was not well marbled like other Wagyu I've previously had. I asked for the steak cooked medium rare but it came out more as medium well. Ribeye Steak - Pass. Cook was asked for medium, came medium rare but was cold when arriving to the table. I would not come back for the steaks but will come back to try the fish. On to my next food adventure... read more

WOW!!!! One word describes this night. I and two other friend girls went here for uplifting and celebrating. I'm glad we did. This was my first time here. The other two weren't new here. Our waiter, Chris, was professional and not pushy. His colleagues came over took pics of us, chatted us up and ensured we were GOOD. The manager, Johnny, came over and offered us a fruit plate as dessert ON HIM!! The appetizers were excellent: riblets, honey-dipped broccoli (nicely crisped), seared shrimp and the bean plate. Satisfying and overly stuffy. Our main courses included brazzini, crab cake and salmon. DELISH. Please visit here. Plenty of parking, nice ambiance read more

Everything was fine, until I was about the eat the last bite of my hamburger (lunch special), then found a long black hair in the meat. Should of saved the hair but was disgusted and spit it out, and could not find it on the floor afterwards. Told the server and she just laughed it off. Does finding a hair in the food = equal a one star review, not sure. read more

Went to a dinner program here on a Thursday night. Service was excellent. I had an Old Fashioned which was exquisite. We had a mix of appetizers which were all delicious. (Only regret is that I didn't get to try the octopus as I've heard great things about it). The tomato salad was fresh and zesty. The Limani chips were crispy and delicious and the calamari were crisp and the sauces were perfect with it. I had branzino and was very happy. A selection of mixed desserts was brought to the table. Deserts were fantastic as well although we were almost too full to try them. read more

Greetings Yelpers, I recently visited this venue my thoughts are as follows; What a positive far cry from the tired & old BonWit inn... this building was gutted inside & out and the front finished environment is airy, beautiful, upscale & very open. The bar/ dining area were again open & airy. Service was marvelous both Gabby & Jennifer were accommodating, professional & friendly. The food was from very good to mediocre. The starters were fabulous, a wine list that was +++ Entree was Branzino which I found to be very delicate yet very bland with not much flavor for my palate . Overall 3 for food 4 for service it is not inexpensive if you're on a budget. read more

Came here for a bridal shower. Was not expecting much due to the Yelp reviews but was pleasantly surprised. Appetizers of different dips with slices of pita bread, fried calamari, tomato cucumber salad...I think there were others but I was too busy eating and enjoying the shower to remember. I just remember enjoying everything. I ordered the branzino which was prepared perfectly! I left half for hubby who enjoyed it as a leftover. We will definitely have to go back! read more

We dined this past Sunday early evening and it was a great experience! First off, I used to work in The Bonwit Inn many years ago and I cannot believe this is the same space! We also had my bridal shower here and dinner after my son's baptism and we couldn't get over it. The way they recreated this-Absolutely beautiful! My husband did make a reservation and we were seated in by the fireplace. We couldn't stop looking around and then realized it was time to order! Pretty "Greek" places like this can be deceiving when it comes to Greek food. I was expecting an American version of Greek food but that wasn't the case. The tzatziki was real, lamb chops were real, Greek salad... real! I was so relieved. We are lacking great Greek spots in the area so we left happy. Madison was a great server. Food was so good as were the drinks and deserts! The only thing I would change is to add some Greek music. It's a Greek joint after all, no? EDIT: just as good if not better than the other Limani locations! read more

Thank you Josh and Jason! All was great for dinner. My family first time in today today, see you next time!

Very good food. Very good menu. Greek/Mediterranean food is very authentic. Service very good.

My Mother lives very close to this place so after leaving her house I figured I would grab some food to take home. Second experience was not nearly as good as the first. 3.5 stars actually but rounding up because of the two lovely ladies that took my order and brought it out to our car when it was ready. I got the charcoal shrimp which had really off flavors to it. Did not enjoy it at all. The crab cake was better but again, not blown away by it. Maybe the food doesn't transport well. I do only live 12 minutes away but it could have just been an off day for the kitchen. read more
