Always a good time at this restaurant. My husband loves their pork chop. Oysters are very fresh and served with fresh horseradish which allows each diner to make their own cocktail sauce. Try their cocktails. Espresso Martini is delicious. Vodka martini with blue cheese stuffed olives is another favorite of my husband. Enjoy the music on Thursday evening. Makes a great date night read more

I waited 15 minutes for a waiter to come over, after being seated. The Maitr'd woman did get me sparkling water. She finally had to come over later to take my order for brick chicken. Which was tasty and juicy. I'd say the restaurant was only 1/2 full. Seems and I could be wrong, they're not doing well. Plus they have a limited menu with Manhattan prices. Today with Father's Day special meals. They need to do better. read more

We came for my dad's birthday dinner. The location is great. Margie's is located on the first floor of the Rockaway hotel. He has a very nice large dining room space as well as bar area. You can enter from the main drive or through the hotel. We have reservations for 4:00 pm and we were seated shortly after the service was great. We had a really wonderful waiter. He was so helpful and attentive. The food was great. Some of us had the Branzino I had steak frites. I had it prepared medium. It was it was good and the drinks were great. read more

Stayed in the Rockaway hotel and wanted to grab some lunch, so went down the Margies. It had a cute, beachy vibe and everyone seemed very chill inside. The waitress was attentive and quick with taking our order. We got the chicken soup, turkey club and steak frites. Everything was okay. Nothing that I would run to get again. I would still go back to try other things but for what we ordered, it was just okay. read more

Frank, the bartender, made me feel extremely uncomfortable during my visit. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere did not feel welcoming. What stood out the most was that I was the only person at the bar who was asked to put a card on file. Even another customer noticed how unusual it was and offered to pay for my round because he felt the situation was unfair. That alone should tell you how uncomfortable the interaction was. Everyone should be treated fairly and consistently. Assumptions should never be made about customers because you do not know who is walking into your establishment. Whether intentional or not, the experience left me feeling singled out and disrespected. Unfortunately, because of how I was treated, I will not be returning. First impressions matter, and from the door to the bar, this experience was not welcoming. Sidebar because my reviews are honest The oysters And the crispy tuna food was GOOD!!! 10/10 on food everything else 00000000 read more

We had breakfast there the morning of 5/30/26 (we were attending a wedding). There was an older gentleman with an Irish accent who was very sweet & funny. I was recently diagnosed with Celiac's disease, so the staff made sure I was able to get something without getting sick. He said the chef wasn't sure about the mozzarella for me dish, but me & our server were quite sure it was safe. He even came over & took my pulse LOL! Excellent food & staff! read more

My review is solely for my half prime rib French dip sandwich that my fiancé bought back as leftovers for dinner. It was cold by the time it made it home but it was still so delicious. I already finished dinner but still manage to eat a good chunk of the sandwich. The French dip was definitely a perfect pairing, along with the perfectly caramelized onions and Gruyère cheese. I can't wait to actually go to this restaurant to try it hot :) read more

Had a nice dinner with my son and his girlfriend, fairly busy for a Wednesday night. Service was quick and attentive. Starter with the spicy clams, very good and the calamari, could be better. I had the pork chop which was well seasoned with a really good sauce, excellent. They both had the steak frites which they said was good. All in all would recommend. read more

really great food and ambiance. had the Tuesdays | Prime & Wine $45 Prime Rib with Sides & 1/2 Price Bottles of Wine. the prime rib was flavorful and well cooked - the waiter did mess up the sides so I had mashed potatoes for the next day, good side dish for lunch! read more

Our waiter was wonderful and the food was very good. One guest wasn't happy with the drink she ordered (thought the club soda was flat). Bartender said there was nothing wrong with it and the waiter returned it to the table. Found that to be very unprofessional. read more

Came to the Rockaway Hotel and did not realize how delicious Margie's is! Their wings, burger and fries were the perfect combo for a chill night after our wedding during our mini-moon in February. Staff is super kind, Christian was excellent. We also loved the vibe, you can either be chill or dress up, whatever you feel! read more

We ate at Margie's on 7/5, we ordered the olives, calamari - which were both exceptional. My meal was the brick chicken, my husband ordered the pork chop, both were very delicious. It's hard to find a good pork chop cooked perfectly but we did! My blackberry spritz was DELIGHTFUL. Everything about Margie's is amazing, we are from Florida and come to stay at the Rockaway 2-3 times a year, we never miss a chance to eat at Margie's. Pj the weekend evening manager is kind and caring, always going above and beyond for his patrons. Ryan the bartender always makes a great drink, and they taste the EXACT same way EVERY time. Highly recommend if you're looking for an elevated dining experience, that still feels like home. read more

This place is phenomenal! If you're within a few miles (JFK airport) and you have time, do visit this place. I sat at the bar so I only dealt with the bar staff. These folks were exceptional, very informative and put me in the right direction. I had the pork chop and have to say it was probably the best pork chop I've ever had. The restaurant is part of the Rockaway hotel so has the sophisticated beach to it. But regardless, the food is top notch and quite reasonable! Wish I could've posted more food photos, but everybody ate their schtuff before I could take a picture of it Enjoy! read more

Margie's is such a cute spot. I love the dressed up diner style vibes. It's connected to the Rockaway Hotel and there's lots of free street parking. I walked in for a late lunch and it was surprisingly empty. There's a full bar and a nice selection of soups, salad, sandwiches, and big plates, and appetizers on the menu. I went for a soup and grilled cheese since it was a little gloomy outside. My friends got the burger, poke bowl, and veggie burger. All were plated nicely and aimed to fill you up. The portions are big but I didn't have any leftovers. I'm here to discuss the soup. This is a chunky one with a big tomato flavor. It came out piping hot and I greatly appreciated it. The soup was made to dunk into and the crusty bread was the perfect invitation. I got into it! Each dunk and crunch was rotated with conversation. The caramelized onion in the sandwich was a nice touch. Go ahead and order this, I dare you. It came with a lovely side salad. It was bursting with colors and texture. Margie's, please don't change. I love the fresh ingredients and attention to flavor. read more

I ordered my favorite dish Margie's Brick Chicken $30.00 half chicken cooked under a Himalayan salt brick, smashed fingerlings, baby carrots, pan jus Unfortunately it was so spicy , it was like eating the sun. Inedible. So disappointed. This is a dish I ate on a weekly basis. Whenever the chef decided to heat things up, it should be listed on the menu. Too bad. You lost a loyal customer. Your very lucky I did not have a bad reaction to this dish. I only ate to bites before I was in incredible pain. read more

Second time here and I'm always pleased with the wait staff and the hostess. It was packed. The rooftop stopped serving lite bites so I made my way down for a spread at Margie's. I didn't think I was hungry until I looked at the full menu again. The waitlist was full but it was only two of us so we scored when a reservation didn't make their time. Chris was our server and I feel like I left with a new friend. Great hire guys! He's a keeper. The drinks are my fav. There's a spicy margarita type of drink and a Smokey mezcal drink that will keep you coming back. Ordered the watermelon arugula salad, the burrata and the lobster pasta. All very delicious. The decor and ambiance is perfect. Everyone was having a good time. And there's always the rooftop for more of a party scene. read more

This hotel is a neighborhood gem. I'm so glad I stumbled upon it. It's gorgeous inside and you cannot deny the smell coming from the restaurant. Everything they serve looks amazing and each dish had a wonderful taste. I cannot wait to go back and try the rest of the menu. Server Chris was really friendly and was very intuitive in helping me make choices. I've been for drinks before and Bar tenders are always great. There was a wait time, but the hostess was very kind and got us seated in about 20 mins. read more

I visited the Rockaway Hotel and stopped by their restaurant. As someone who grew up in the rockaways, it was nice to see a quaint sophisticated establishment along the rockaways. Starting with the bread it was the best table bread I have ever had at a restaurant. If they would've only served me bread, I would've been satisfied. It also came with this butter that melts in your mouth like you wouldn't believe. For my entrée I had the salmon dish and I did not enjoy it unfortunately. The salmon was Bland and it was on a bed of random vegetables that just did not seem to fit very well together and the vegetables were bland. We also ordered calamari for the table and they were OK. I ordered the truffle fries and they were pretty good as well. In all, I would definitely return and explore the rest of the menu. read more

Terrible I ordered a kale Ceaser with chicken only to be told they were out of kale , romaine lettuce was the substitute which I agreed to. 24 dollars later I ended up with a basic salad that looked like I got it from the stop and shop . Ridiculous never again . Thank you for treating first responders so kindly ! read more

Great service and cocktails! Definitely order the espresso martini! The space is welcoming and trendy but also kid friendly.

If i had made this review two weeks ago i would've done 5 star absolute love. The food is incredible always. best brunch spot in town. it's always cozy in there and i always feel fancy and well taken care of. I went here a few weeks ago for my birthday and it was lovely, staff was super kind and sweet and thoughtful. TODAY i go with my boyfriend and we order drinks and our food. AN HOUR goes by and we get a new waitress, asking us if everything was okay. I am a nice guy so i say yes, and we'd also like to place a to go order along with our food for here. then we think our food comes and after immense disappointment watching it go to another table i get fed up and ask our new waitress to check on our food only to find it was never put in. THEN on top of it all nothing was comped felt super disrespectful and uncaring from the staff this morning. Super disappointed in what i thought was a premier restaurant in the area. read more

My family met here for brunch after my father's funeral. It was a sad and somber event but the staff at Margie's truly lifted our spirits without even knowing why we were there. We were a large party of 12 They served fresh hot cornbread in baskets with creamery butter and it was amazing. I say this in the context of someone who worked as a chef specializing in Southern food For an appetizer we shared a few plates of perfectly fried chicken wings. The wings were plump and delicious. Better than any standard pub fare For my entree I ordered a rare steak and eggs over easy with a side of country potatoes. Steak was seared to perfection and the eggs and potatoes were amazing as well I sampled a few fries and homemade potatoes from my sister's and niece's plates and my they, too were cooked perfectly Guinness was nicely poured and my old fashioned was on point I give Margie's my highest recommendation for upscale dining in Rockaway and look forward to my next visit read more

Huzzah! What a truly wonderful restaurant tucked inside this classy boutique hotel--perfect for my daughter's wedding celebration. From the moment we arrived, PJ greeted us like old friends coming home. His gregarious and engaging personality set the tone for the evening. The waitstaff, handling a 20-person rehearsal dinner, could not have been more attentive. Every detail was noticed, every request met with a smile. The food was excellent, and the atmosphere elevated the entire event into something unforgettable. The mixologists kept things lively by introducing creative new cocktails, adding a fun twist to the night. My kids especially loved the tuna, while the onion dip--paired with homemade chips--was a nostalgic family favorite and a rare treat to find done so well. All around, this restaurant delivered not just a meal, but a memory. A perfect blend of hospitality, flavor, and celebration BTW, Margie looks like she was a special person based on the pictures of her and Rockaway. read more

I have been to Margie's twice and both times have been exceptional experiences. All parties involved raved about the variety of food and drinks as well as the great service received. It certainly is a plus that Margie is located within the Rockaway hotel that boasts a fantastic rooftop bar overlooking Rockaway Beach and on the lower level, a poolside restaurant and bar. I have experienced all three places and absolutely love them all. This may be my go to summer brunch spot. read more
