    Halibut
    Elizabeth M.

    Back again to celebrate our Valentine's Day celebration. I absolutely love this place. Got the best seat in the whole place in a nice little corner with my husband. Service was excellent. Our waiter did a great job explaining the specials in detail and then even repeated just the name of the dish. We ended up going with all specials. We shared the heart shaped ravioli with shrimp. I got the halibut and my husband had the rib eye. All delicious dishes that made our evening very enjoyable. Will be back again!

    Mezza Luna 5 stars I celebrated my birthday on 10/23 at Mezza Luna tonight. Let me tell you. This place is AMAZING! First off any restaurant that has linen napkins and linen tablecloths is right up my alley. If you're looking for really great Italian and really great service. Try this place. The waiters were very attentive. The food was fantastic. I love a place where the servers always check on you. And make sure your water glass is always full. Fred the manager/owner is a doll. He is very old school. I felt like I was family and not just a customer. I would highly recommend this place for all your special occasions. Date night or any kind of celebrations. I had escargot and asparagus wrapped in prosciutto and mozzarella breaded and fried. I had the filet mignon. It came with mashed potatoes and string beans with carrots. I had spaghetti carbonara authentic Roman style. And I had rainbow cookie cake for dessert. The drinks were fabulous and strong. Good thing I took an Uber to the restaurant LOL. I had to have a little bubbly with my dessert.Went for my birthday 10/23. Delicious food, drink and impeccable service.

    You know a restaurant is good when I'm coming twice in one week. Tonight we had try out the dinner menu. Everything was amazing we started off with the tomato & mozzarella. Then we had the avocado crab cake which was nothing like we've ever had before. For dinner, we had the seafood pasta dish with a white sauce with lobster,shrimps, clams & mussels. For the fish lovers I would highly recommend this dish. The Veal piccata was tender & a great choice. The fresh Pappardelle with filet was also amazing. The desserts were the perfect ending to a awesome dinner. The menu is huge & everyone has something eat. Thanks again for delicious food & awesome waiters & staff.

    I actually really liked this place. Very nice and low key.. came a few times now and usually get a veal and pasta. We loved the capelli D'Angelo (crab meat over angel hair).. it was so nice and light, I'm not a huge pasta person but loved this! The veal on both occasions was a lil too salty for my liking but my gf loved it, I think it's all about preference here. Also, since they're medallions, they could have been cooked a bit less but it would not deter me from me coming back here. I love that they don't rush you in and out of here, bartender is super cute and chill.. it can get busy at the bar area and a lil loud but I don't mind... we typically dine at the bar for the vibe and it's a good one in here. Def recommend the carbonara as well but it needs to be piping hot! Also, I love that they will split your portion of pasta for you, it's just easier and less messy! I think this place would be great for a small event! I'll be back :)

    Lobster appetizer

    Very nice restaurant to have a romantic dinner. They also do parties downstairs and they have a bar with televisions . We went on a Saturday night. I suggest making reservations. Exceptional service and the staff is thorough and kind. The lobster appetizer was delicious and my favorite. For 2 meals an appetizer and 2 glasses of wine the bill was about $130.00.

    Ordered a caprese for takeout during my lunch break. Overall the caprese was very good. Fresh mozarella & tomato and the balsamic glaze was nice too. But I have to give it 2 stars because I value sanitation over taste. The restaurant was clean on the inside , however, my bread (wrapped in tin foil) had 2 long thick brown hairs on it right when I opened it. Kind of grossed me out. Wound up not eating the bread unfortunately

Tonight was a revisiting to memories of earlier times with family and friends. The first taste of Steve's veal meatball instantly transported me back to the lakeside home of the Del Nino family. I never expected the Spaghetti & Meatballs entree to be so simply delicious and authentic. The thick and creamy bolognese vodka sauce with the Pappardelle went so well with the pasta, it felt like a lasagna in my mouth. The crab cake appetizer beat out Roy's Hawaiian Fusion for the top spot. It had more crab in it than any other version my wife had ever tried. And the chocolate chip cannoli was freshly piped, flanked by 4 almond biscotti with an essence of anise. This restaurant is truly a hidden gem, and may awaken distant memories of better times.

Small balls has more breading to cheese ratio. The sauce comes in pan on the side to be able to share. I wish for more cheese. Fried Calamari- under salted. The squid was tender and crispy but under seasoned. Linguine in White Clam Sauce- All chopped up! When getting this dish, I would usually get clams within shells on the plate. All the clams were chopped up. Fra Diavolo-messy! The seafood dish was filled with shelled items. I was not given a shell dish to discard them so it was very difficult to eat. Chocolate Mousse Cake- pass!! It is chocolate cake with a mouse like frosting. It was dry and wet at the same time. Such a disappointment. On to my next adventure....

    It had been year since I've gotten from Branchinelli's and my return visit after almost a decade…read moredid not disappoint. Their Sicilian pie is a standout. It's beautifully pillowy with a crisp undercarriage. It's perfectly oily without being greasy. It's (IMO) too saucy which tends to make it a little sloppy but it's a balanced sauce of sweet and tart with just the right amount of cheese. Their regular pie is a benchmark pie for Long Island pizza. It's just right. No notes. The chicken parm and meatball parm heroes are also benchmark sandwiches. I judge all heroes against theirs. Personally, I prefer the chicken parm, but it's a 1A/1B situation. There's no wrong choice. My only complaint would be that I wish they were a little bit larger.

    Excellent sauce and food. Both the Chicken Parm and Pizza were excellent. Even the crust on the…read morepizza was perfect. Only one problem... Caveat Emptor! No, that isn't a dish. It means buyer beware. But when it comes to dishes, you might have noticed there is no pasta with my Chicken Parm. That's because the Chicken Parm is $32 freaking dollars if you order it with pasta. The owner and staff seem super friendly, but I have never in my life seen this price for Chicken Parm and pasta. I told the owner that and he said it's $16 and change for the Chicken Parm and $15 and change for the pasta. If you don't know, after alcohol, an Italian restaurant's biggest profit margin is pasta. For this restaurant, it might be number one. Pasta is incredibly cheap to make so the markup here is beyond insane. The price for pasta is so high that they almost definitely miss the ideal price point. In other words, this price will drive down orders and keep customers away. At a lower price point, it will drive more groups of people spending more money. Aside from that, the food is excellent and I still recommend this place. It really is great food. Just don't order pasta.

    Trattoria Saint James in Saint James, NY, is an absolute five star Italian extravaganza that had me…read moretwirling my fork like a conductor leading a pasta orchestra from the moment I stepped through the door until I waddled out stuffed happier than a meatball in Sunday gravy. This place is a cozy slice of Tuscany tucked into Long Island suburbia, with warm terracotta walls glowing under soft Edison bulbs that flicker like fireflies at a vineyard wedding, exposed brick that whispers old world romance, and tables draped in crisp white linens spaced just right so you can whisper sweet nothings to your date without the next table joining the conversation. The ambience is pure magic, a perfect blend of rustic charm and upscale elegance where the air swirls with garlic, basil, and the faint strum of Italian crooners that makes you feel like you have been transported to a Nonna's kitchen in Naples, but with air conditioning and zero chance of getting pinched on the cheek. Twinkling string lights over the bar add a festive sparkle, fresh flowers bloom on every table like edible centerpieces, and the open kitchen lets you peek at chefs tossing dough like pizza frisbees, turning dinner into delicious theater. The food, mamma mia, where do I even begin without needing a second stomach? We kicked off with the burrata that arrived like a creamy cloud from cheese heaven, draped over heirloom tomatoes so juicy they burst like summer fireworks, drizzled with 25 year aged balsamic that danced on the tongue sweeter than a love song. The arancini were golden orbs of risotto joy, crispy outside, gooey with fontina inside, served with a marinara so rich and tangy it should have its own fan club. For mains, the veal osso buco fell off the bone softer than a lullaby, braised in a red wine reduction that hugged the meat like a cashmere blanket, paired with a saffron risotto that glowed brighter than the ambience lights. My partner's seafood linguine was a briny ocean party, clams, mussels, shrimp, and scallops twirling in a white wine garlic broth so flavorful I caught myself mopping the plate with housemade focaccia like it was my job. Desserts? The tiramisu was a fluffy espresso soaked dream layered with mascarpone lighter than air, and the cannoli cracked with a satisfying snap before revealing ricotta filling piped with chocolate chips and candied orange that tasted like Sicily in every bite. Portions are generous without being overwhelming, prices feel like a steal for the quality (entrees $25 to $40), and the wine list is a curated love letter to Italian regions with a Barolo that paired like it was destiny. Service was the cherry on this gelato sundae, no, the entire sundae stand, with a team that operates like a well oiled Vespa zooming through narrow streets with precision and pizzazz. Our server Marco greeted us with a megawatt smile and a complimentary prosecco toast "for beautiful people on a beautiful night," then guided us through the menu like a tour guide in the Colosseum, suggesting the perfect pairings with enthusiasm that bubbled like the sparkling water he kept refilling without us asking. Every course arrived at the ideal tempo, hot dishes steaming, cold apps chilled, and when I mentioned a gluten sensitivity he whisked away potential pitfalls faster than a Ferrari on the Autostrada, even surprising us with gluten free bread that tasted like the real deal. The manager swung by not once but twice, once to check on our experience and again to gift us limoncello shots "for the road, but sip it slow," turning a great meal into a memorable party. Busboys cleared plates ninja style, water glasses stayed full like magic, and the entire staff radiated genuine warmth that made us feel like VIPs at a family reunion we actually wanted to attend. Trattoria Saint James is the kind of gem that makes you want to cancel all future dinner plans and just rotate through their menu on repeat, a five star symphony of sensational food, enchanting ambience, and service that spoils you rotten in the best way. Whether you are celebrating an anniversary, wooing a date, or just treating yourself because you deserve it, book a table, bring your stretchy pants, and prepare for an Italian love affair that will have you shouting "bravissimo" between bites. I am already counting down the days until my next visit, this place doesn't just serve dinner, it serves pure joy on a plate!

Upon entering we were warmly welcomed. While we decided on what we would be having, we were given complimentary fried zucchini strips & bread. The wait staff is very attentive. Having never been here but using Yelp as my foodie guide, with its high star rating, I somehow missed that this establishment is prixe fixed so you cannot order a La carte anything. I honestly wish I had read more reviews instead of focusing on just the high-star rating. Anyway, the prize fixed menu includes appetizer, main entree, dessert and coffee for $38.95 with up charges for specific items that are clearly marked. Of course, both myself and my hubby chose entrees (veal parmigiana and meat lasagna) with a $5.95 up charge for each. On this Friday night, there was live music. It was very fitting for this Italian restaurant with its cozy Italian bistro/cafe atmosphere. It made it feel like date night. Hearing the music in the background was very enjoyable. Now the food, which came out in a nice even pace so we were not rushed. The appetizers of baked clams and eggplant rollatine were good. My veal parmigiana was absolutely delicious and prepared perfectly. My hubby's meat lasagna was good but in comparison to my dish it missed the mark. The desserts & coffee were fine, but certainly nothing overly special. I'm the person who looks at dessert first because I look forward to that extra special thing at the end of the meal. Overall a nice dinner out with my hubby.
