Disappointed. If you really want to experience a true Limani go to the one in Manhattan. Interior and food much better

Limani in Commack Long Island was great! The food delicious . Little pricy . The restaurant is very big with a very modern atmosphere. We didn't have a reservation and were seated almost immediately. We weee given a choice of tables. The staff was professional and service was very good considering we came in at the height of business. I look forward to going back read more

I came with a party of 8 for my mother's birthday. The appetizers were great until my mother tried going to the bathroom and realized there was chewing GUM stuck all over her pants and down vest! We looked at the seat she was sitting on and was horrified to see gum smeared all over the chair! For an "upscale" restaurant like this we were so surprised and immediately called the manager who offered "dry cleaning" if we drop off the pants tomorrow. We live in the city and for me drive 20 miles to drop off clothes to dry clean is RIDICULOUS! The manager then offered us dessert on the house but we refused. We wanted a better solution, which he offered dry cleaning. We went in for a nice dinner and instead was treated with disrespect. If you want gum stuck all over your clothes and pay hundreds of dollars for dinner, then you should go here. Otherwise, if I could I would give this place negative stars for their unsanitary conditions and disrespect for their customers. EDIT-- Got a call from the manager on the evening of 1/22/20 around 7pm stating that because of writing a bad review he was no longer inclined to dry clean the gum off my clothes, which happened at his restaurant under his management. He also told me he was going to "sleep well" after yelling over the phone and abruptly hanging up before I had the chance to speak. He should grow up and act like an adult. read more

Had a wonderful lunch. First time there. Just feel the waiter could have been a bit more helpful as we were not ordering from the Pre Fix menu and wanted some more info on what could be an appetizer etc. seemed kind of rushed even though it was only 11:30 am? What kind of oysters. How many? Sushimi?? How do they prepare? Any bones in the fish. A real turn off for me. Yes there were. I think we will give it another try read more

Absolutely amazing! By far the BEST restaurant I've been to in a LONG time! I had the arugula salad and added shrimp and chicken. The shrimp was so fresh and the chicken was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend had the filet mignon and my gosh was I in heaven! I am DEFINITELY going to be back! I love Limani! read more

I never mind spending money if it matches the quality. The positve is Limani is a well appointed restaurant, nice decor with a good good vibe. The negative is if you're charging a premium your food needs to equal the bill. This is where they fall short read more

Been many times, always good and dependable with fresh fish. But last night following the advice of one of the senior waiters, I had the veal chop. I can say with confidence it is the best veal chop I have ever had. It was crispy on the outside with a nice seasoning, while tender on the inside. My mouth is watering as I write this , that says it all. read more

This is my new favorite spot for seafood, cocktails, amazing ambiance, and top rated service! The crab cake is especially amazing, as is the calamari! Love the fact that tables are distanced. You feel safe in this beautiful restaurant. Definitely will be back many times! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would the quality of food was horrible service wasn't great either My steak was over salted aNd when I complained I overheard the cook with a beard calling me derogatory names in spanish which I understood. Later on the next day myself and my friend became violently ill with what felt like food poisoning. Come to find out limani was recently under investigation by health department 12 or so Violations and 7 hazardous violations. Stay clear of this place read more

Best sea food ; great service ; amazing decor; they did a tremendous job on my 70th; It's my favorite restaurant

Limani is my go-to spot for special occasions. I was there again on this past Friday and we had an amazing experience from start to finish, so I just had to write a review. As soon as we pulled in the parking lot, the friendliest valet took my car. We proceeded inside where we were greeted by the two sweet hostesses. We told them the name of our reservation and were seated right away. Our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable. He recommended the loup de mer which I thoroughly enjoyed. So much flavor in every bite. My boyfriend ordered the cowboy steak and it was cooked PERFECTLY. For dessert we had yummy chocolatina. All in all, this is an exceptional place. A little pricey but you're paying for the beautiful ambiance, incredible service, and unbelievable food. read more

Weekend brunch birthday buffet was a hit! Fresh lobsters, shrimp cocktail, made to order breakfast items, pasta station, sushi, hot plates, carving station. There was something for everyone and then some. Buffet accompanied by bellini/ mimosa/ bloody mary/ coffee/ tea/ soda. Would come back for special occasions- as one meal here is sure to keep you stuffed for at least 2 meals. Service at times felt stuffy, but some wait staff were friendlier & more attentive. Although there is 1 true sectioned off room, the layout is such that potentially you can have dedicated space to host private gatherings in other areas. Bathrooms were clean. There is also valet service. read more

Recently, I the had the occasion to dine at Limani's restaurant with some friends on a Friday evening. For me; the atmosphere, food and good company made for a dining experience that was a very pleasant one. The carousal manner in which the food was served was welcomed because, first of all space was a issue, it was limited and you didn't have to deal with the hassle of the servers reaching over you and they bought the food to the table. Secondly, a dish that you may have found pleasing to your palate. . . well you were welcome to partake of as much as you wanted - much appreciated. My main course was the lamb chops. I have to give that selection two thumbs up. I'd give it more but I only have two thumbs. The lamb chops were lean, season nicely and cooked medium well, and they very succulent. The chops were served with a variety of dishes that included baked potato's, spinach, and zucchini. It was delicious.The lamb chops were a prefaced with a salad and book ended with dessert and coffee, which were good. But I must over emphasize the importance's of a well prepared dish of lamb chops which was not too oily or not to dry. VERY NICELY DONE ! RSVP a must. . . Free valet parking a plus, so enjoy. read more

Suprisingly it wasn't the all you can eat lobster that wowed me. It was the warm pastries and desserts that had me coming up for more and more. For an awesome ayce brunch with excellent service, this place is a definite must try. read more

Its our 3rd visit but still not getting the feeling its perfect! Food is mediocre, the athmospher & service is ok. Can't put our finger on it but we believe this place can do better with the food. Only reason we have been to the restaurant 3 times is because of friends/family who have never tried it! Otherwise we rather not go back unles the chef brings more to the table! Maybe its time to change more than the menu! read more

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner. Food is absolutely delicious. Some of the appetizers are a bit over-priced but still delicious. Our waiter was nice at first but then he literally disappeared. Never saw him after we received our appetizers. We had a nice, young waiter although I think he was the bust-boy because he was constantly cleaning tables who took care of us the rest of the meal. I hope he received our tip. I shared the Cowboy with my friend and it was cooked to absolute perfection. We had a side of the lemon potatoes and grilled vegetables. Amazing. They brought over not 1 but 2 dessert cakes for my friend and they were both delicious. Have no complaints except for our non-existent waiter. read more

Limani - Greek Near Me - Roslyn, New York

Another pleasant surprise. I must have drove pass this place hundreds of times and not realize that it's a restaurant until I searched thru Yelp. Like it's deceiving street presence I was equally surprised of its elegant spaciousness, warm greetings and most importantly it's wonderfully prepared dishes. Every dish I ordered were delicious and the waitstaffs were top notch. The seafood sampler was my favorite appetizer dish and the steaks were awesome. Grilled octopus and lobsters were equally good but I should have save that order for my next visit as the seafood sampler gave a very generous portion of the lobster. I have a wonderful surf and turf night at Lumani and look coward to coming back here again. read more

Hosted a party here (40 people) and found it to be extremely disappointing. The service was HORRIBLE, the wait staff was almost non existant and constantly needed to be asked for water, etc. The portion size was miniscule and I felt completely ripped off! NEVER AGAIN! read more

Trendy hot spot for fish lovers. Delicious dishes but a bit too bustling for my taste. Very nice selection of Greek whites. read more

Limani - Greek Near Me - Roslyn, New York

Located on the very busy Northern Blvd strip, Limani's upscale look starts from the time you drive up to the restaurant and valet your car. You walk up to open their very oversized door which makes you feel like Alice in Wonderland. Upon entering Limani, its a very spacious restaurant with the bar area to the left and dining room area to the right. Within minutes of being seated, our waiter brought our bread, dip and water to the table. Our drinks and appetizers orders were taken promptly by one of the 3 servers we had throughout our lunch. The food was delicious but was pricey for lunch. Portion size was decent. One thing that I didn't enjoy was the fact that one of our three waiters left without giving us notice which also left our table without our drink order at one point. It was irritating, especially since I was bringing a friend out for their birthday. This was more of a 3* experience but felt like less stars would be too harsh. I probably would give this place another try, especially for their popular brunch I've heard so much about.... read more

Enjoyed a delicious meal here last night with friends. Everything from the beets to the octopus to the snapper was the perfect texture, delicate, and delicious. Not a dessert person, but still squeezed it in- fig ice cream was delightful! read more

had.my wife's 50th birthday party in the private room. 1 word. incredible. not exaggerating. if you need to do an event or even eat dinner. this is the place to do it. from the second i booked it til the second i walked out to my car it was perfection. absolute perfection. been a while with covid and all since i'd been here. had forgotten how amazing it really is. the service unbelievable. the food? amazing. the set up of the private room perfection!!!! whoever is running this place should get their salary doubled. it ran like a clock. everyone was so insanely nice. i almost forgot i was in new york. as far as us going back? oh. you can bet on it. been a very long time since i was glad to pay a bill. thanks so much for making her birthday so memorable and special. we will never forget how amazing limani was. thanks so much and see you soon. stay great!!!! read more

Overrated for sure food doesn't Even taste good don't waste your money restaurant looks are nice but not worth the price , save your money and go to a better Mediterranean restaurant ! read more

Very upscale venue...but definitely an example of you get what you pay for. I had my birthday dinner here with a party of 8 and I have to say from entering to leaving, Limani is every bit at impressive as I was expecting. We all had the same reaction which says a lot because we all critique in different ways and there are very few times when everyone is happy with the spot. THE BREAKDOWN Atmosphere: Everything is white and wood and airy with high ceilings - very mediterranean. I especially like the way that the restaurant is split into two sections (one side looking a bit more quiet - go to the right for noisier and left for window/quiet area) and divided by the kitchen and a huge cart of ice with fresh seafood and veggies. The bar is a bit small but this isn't the type of place that you are going to visit just for the bar. I might add that the drinks are beyond delicious - I had a cucumber and gin concoction from the menu. (Expect NYC prices - at least $12 to $14 per drink). Staff: Definitely trained to please - fit for a special occasion. Top service waiters who are almost perfect at reading minds - they see your needs and deliver before you even know. My only issue is that they try really hard to upsell or advise that a certain amount of food isn't enough for the table. The portions aren't that small and I would advise not taking their suggestions on portion sizing. 4-5 appetizers was more than enough for a party of 8. When you try to stretch it, they seem a little judgy but that's ok. FOOD Appetizers - The octopus was the BEST appetizer and cannot be missed! If you order one thing , it should be this. Perfectly seasoned, moist and delicious. -Stuffed calamari - a very close second to the octopus. Again, perfectly seasoned and amazingly fresh cheese. -Patzaria - refreshing and also recommended along with the hummus but nothing out of the ordinary Raw Bar - as to be expected the raw bar was perfect, the oysters delicious and as if they were just out of the sea but VERY expensive and not sure if it was worth the price The sauteed jumbo shrimp, crab cake and spanakopita were also very good but very normal items. We also ordered the arugula salad which was fresh and good. Entrees In general - all of the dishes were nothing short of AMAZING. My husband and I wanted to share two different plates, so we got the loup de mer (consider this a branzino) and the halibut - hands down the LOUP DE MAR is the way to go. Very fresh, moist and lightly seasoned but I was disappointed to see it came with no sides. I suggest an order of aspargus to go with it otherwise the dish is lacking a little bit . Whole snapper for two - I don't even like snapper and this fish was HUGE and as perfect as a snapper can possibly get - highly recommended. Yellow fin tuna - highest grade of tuna and the most complimentary crust. If you LOVE tuna then I say to get this and you won't be disappointed. Lobster - though the lobster is one of the higher priced items (market price in Nov was $58), I'm not sure that it was the best that I've ever had. It was good but the fish dishes definitely rivaled and I love lobster, same goes for the scallops. Garides Saganaki - my sister in law got this and seemed please I ordered 6 crab claws for the table and this is the sole reason that i didn't give the restaurant five stars. My crab was AMAZING. Beyond amazing...fresh and delicious as were the others but my husband must have got a bad crab. It was SOUR as though it spoiled and for this type of restaurant that it s just not acceptable. He took a bite and ran right to the bathroom - he didn't finish the rest of his meal. It was BAD (of course I tasted to make sure...ugh, why) This was a big let down to the meal but since everything else was so outstanding I'd let it go. Desserts I ordered Karidopita and really wanted to try it but they brought me Milopita - It was like a flatbread with apples and I didn't enjoy it that much. Something like an apple streudel maybe? Others at the table ordered the EHMEK (soooo good, go with this) and the loukoumades (honey drenched zepoles - one piece is good enough, one order can be shared for the table). The chocolatina is a must if you love chocolate and the fig ice cream was surprisingly my favorite item on the table. VERY RICH dessert. All in all, a great restaurant for delicious, fresh fish and the food is very tasty. A few cons in the review but I would love to come back for another special occasion. (Worked out to about $150-175/pp drinks included) Dress code: Casual chic to dressy Tip: ask to sit in the room to the left for a quieter, romantic meal (near the window) Recommended. read more

Went Saturday night and super busy. Made reservation ahead of time a few days before Pros - Valet parking for door side parking - great ambiance and modern clean feel - super attentive staff always keeping table cleaning and changing between courses. More restaurants should adopt from there service here - really loved the oysters, octopus and shared grouper dish for two. Would go back again Pricey but worth ever bit if you are a foodie and want to impress for a date or Client. Located in upscale Manhasset / Rosedale area. read more

Well the the decor is great. The cleaning crew is great because the place was spotless. The server was good but she was over worked because they were under staffed. The food was completely uninspired and not even a step up from your local Greek diner. I heard the chef went to some fancy school and has trained with the best. I didn't taste it. Besides a fancy presentation this chef should have just went to the local Greek diner and worked there for a few years and saved the money he spent on his fancy school and spent it on late fees from taking books out of the cooking section from the local Library. I guess the snobs on the North shore think they are getting their moneys worth since they have valet parking, a marble top bar and high ceilings. I was with 3 other people and I tried something off of everybody's dish just because I was hoping to taste something not average. Appetizers-average. All the main courses and side dishes - average. Dessert-below average. Then the bill came. Not average. A complete ripoff. Don't waste your money. If you want average uninspired Seafood go to Red Lobster. At least when the food is average you won't be upset because the bill will be a lot less then Limani. read more

Disappointed, because Yelp advertising made this place sound legit, sadly it is extremely underwhelming. I came here with my parents for their anniversary, the noise level is extremely loud for a high end restaurant, it is not recommended for bringing your older relatives. I asked to try a wine recommendation by the staff, and when I didn't like it they brought out a pinot noir without allowing us to taste it. It was vinegary and bitter, I asked the waiter to try my glass so he could see I wasn't lying, three people at my table had tried the wine and it clearly wasn't a pinot noir. They opened a fresh bottle and I was satisfied with their response to this issue. The coctails are more than 90% ice and quite frankly that's unacceptable for this type of restaurant. More importantly, the food: Had the garides saganaki, flavor was ok, but at 3 small pieces of shrimp a $25 plate feels underwhelming. More imporantly, it doesn't taste Greek. Had the seafood mix for 4 and it was delicious, well portioned and the only thing making this night acceptable. At this point we decided to leave because while the seafood was acceptable, the ambiance and reaction from the waiters felt inhospitable. A Greek restaurant should be hospitable if nothing else. Example: I asked for some pita for the saganaki, it was brought several minutes later. Given that there are only 3 pieces, it didn't serve a purpose, every Greek restaurant should serve bread or pita alongside a sauce dish, not by request. They also rushed us out the door as they were taking our plates prior to my parents having finished their dinner. You're worried about losing money on the wrong things. The host that recieved us and spoke Greek to us was an excellent gentleman, but I can't recommend this place based on the overall experience. I left them a 20% tip, because as someone that has worked in service, I cannot punish the entirety of the staff for the actions of a few. But quite frankly: ntropi. read more

I come here about 2/3 times every week. It's my favorite restaurant. I get at least 3 Persephannes (hope the spelling police doesn't come for me). A wonderful martini with raspberries on the bottom. I usually order the arugula salad with shrimp and chicken. A wonderful meal. I recently came across the octopus. I order it with shrimp. Everything in this restaurant is amazing!! I will continue to come! read more

Went to Limani last night and had one of the worst experiences ever in an upscale restaurant. They must have accidentally overbooked the place as we had an 8pm res and some friends we bumped into had an 8:30. We all sat around 9:30 and only by force! The manager who was on last night was USELESS!! He did nothing to address the problem and let a 20 year old girl sort through the mess. I have no clue what his name was as he hid in the back by the bathroom rather then take charge and settle people down. I hope the owners read this and address the situation as I love the service and food but won't allow myself to be treated in this manner when I'm out for a great dinner. read more

If you want to be ignored and have mediocre food, then this is your place. The waiter seemed bothered by the fact he had to serve us and the manager was complete indifferent too. Once the food finally came out it was bland and tasteless. It almost seemed premade and reheated. I would have explained my displeasure to the waiter or manager but they seemed busy having a personal conversation and who am I to interrupt. No worries, I apologize for being a burden. I will not be returning. read more

I felt so disappointed last night by Limani's poor performance that I'm tempted to give it fewer stars; that said, I must acknowledge the quality of the food prep (after all, I went there to eat). 1) we had to refuse the first table offered, since it was in a high traffic zone; second table was better, but it was cramped. 2) service was atrocious - several requests unmet, one cappuccino delivered ten minutes before the other cappuccino,and coffees at the table 3) overpriced main courses with no sides included 4) we were rushed through the dinner -who wants to be in and out of a restaurant on a Saturday night in less than 1.5 hours? 5) upon leaving, we voiced our dissatisfaction with being rushed to the folks at the front desk; the explanation was that it's Saturday night (and what should we expect). Eat here at your own risk ~ read more

Not a great overall experience for the price point, food was average at best. Do not get the lamb chops or steak, they are bland with no taste or seasoning, didn't even taste like prime meat. A 50.00 steak should not be tasteless. My Tuna steak had so much skin on it it was barely edible and tough to cut through, my friend's cut seemed to be better. I would recommend the octopus, mussels and eggplant chips. My friend's shrimp dish with tomato sauce had way to much feta cheese sprinkled all over it. I had to ask for a water refill twice before the bus boy came over. Drinks and desserts were fairly good. I'd stay away from the entrees and just order the apps. read more

My boss brought me here and reserved a table for one as he was on a business meeting and I am his chauffeur. I must say, possibly one of the best restaurants I have ever been too in my 27 years of life. Being that my boss surprised me with the table, I felt a little underdressed but they were beyond polite and caring. Every single employee seems to be observant and polite to your needs. Everything from the appetizer's down to the steak was nothing short of perfect. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning and the energy of the restaurant is unmatched. I rarely take the time to write reviews but this has to be the best dining experience I ever had and I was all by myself. Amazing place, recommend to ANYBODY read more
