This place is huge with so many drink and dessert options. If I'm local to this neighborhood, I…read morewould most likely be coming here more often...like a lot often. They have so many seatings and the vibe here is sooo good. I ordered the Nutty White Chocolate Latte with almond milk and it didn't occur to me to wait on the drink but rather went to the seat and take selfies with my good friend. Our cashier literally went out of his way and brought the drink over. Later the Batista also came over with the extra drink since they made extra with the regular milk. Overall, I enjoyed both drinks. I found the one with regular milk tasted so much better than the one with almond milk.

Visit Date: May 3, 2026…read more All I want to do is go to the cafes listed in my LI cafe passport book for Christmas but my friends keep picking different coffee shops that are not in my book which is slightly annoying to me lol I made a plan to meet my friend Shani and she wanted to check this place out. I got a regular coffee with half and half because I also got the crepe and wanted to not have sugar on top of sugar if I drank a sweet drink and had a sweet dessert. I ended up choosing a crepe, they had no dessert with peanut butter in it which would have been my first choice. The crepe was okay. I ate half of it and my boyfriend ate the other half when I saw him after coffee. I found this place to be just okay, I gave it 4 stars because it was good but it didn't wow me and I think they made it too trendy looking and too hyped up. The service was also very good the man who helped me answered my questions patiently. So I liked this place but wasn't really wowed by it.

Dinner at Kismet Coffee in Bay Shore tonight was absolutely delicious and completely exceeded…read moreexpectations. While they're already well known for their excellent morning coffee, their dinner service deserves just as much attention. The confit chicken with truffle mash was outstanding--perfectly cooked, deeply flavorful, and incredibly comforting without being heavy. The truffle mash was silky and had the perfect amount of truffle without being overwhelming. The ox tail with polenta special was another highlight: rich, tender, and slow-cooked to perfection, with layers of flavor, kind of like short rib. It was my husband's first time having oxtail, and definitely not his last. The experience was made even better by the friendly, welcoming staff, who were attentive without being overbearing and made the evening feel relaxed and inviting. A huge bonus was their espresso martini menu, which can be made with decaf--a dream for anyone (like me) who's sensitive to caffeine at night but still wants to enjoy a great cocktail. They have events and live music most nights of the week and you can just hang at the bar if you prefer. Kismet Coffee is so much more than a morning stop. If you've only been there for coffee, you're seriously missing out. Do yourself a favor and check them out for dinner--it's a hidden gem in Bay Shore and absolutely worth the visit.

Did not try the food. Espresso was horrible. I could smell…read morethe bitter beans as they were being ground. Has any of these baristas tasted espresso at a good Italian restaurant? It's never bitter. Please buy a better bean and train your employees the finer points of making espresso shots! Sorry, but steaming a gallon of milk and throwing in a few terrible shots does not make a quality coffee drink.

My favorite place to eat dinner, best chef in town!!!!…read more We visited for Valentine's Day, which is a rarity for my husband and me. We've actually never gone out for Valentine's Day before. But we've visited Roto a few times for dinner, and they truly have the best dinner options in town. The dinner menu rotates, so it feels like you're going to a different restaurant every time, but the options never disappoint. This time it was a fixed menu, and when I tell you every serving was perfect, no detail was overlooked. The caviar play on sour cream and onion was amazing! The short rib was tender, melt in your mouth good. Even the little gem salad had the most amazing flavors, perfectly balanced! My favorite was the chocolate cake, delicate and not overly sweet. I'm not a sweets girl, and I ate the leftovers the next day, did not share! The service is so attentive. We visited once for dinner, and the second time the server already remembered our favorite wine. The ambiance is absolutely perfect for a date night. I will continue to visit. Bonus, they also have amazing lunch and breakfast options during the day!

Stopped in for a pickup order on my lunch break. It was pretty busy with a long line, but it moved…read morequickly. I ordered the Cuban sandwich, which came with house chips. Customer service was fast and friendly, and the decor felt modern and chill. When I got home, I was a bit surprised by the size of the sandwich, especially for $19 and change. Being from Florida, I'm used to much larger Cuban sandwiches, so I had hoped to split it. That said, the flavors were solid and everything tasted fresh. I'd definitely consider stopping in again, especially to dine in and enjoy the atmosphere. While prices are on the higher side, it seems like a nice spot to sit down and take in the vibe.

My go to spot locally to chill, WFH, and get some breakfast and coffee/tea before starting the day…read more Owner is one of my fave people, so sweet and she always remembers my crazy orders lol. Bagels always fresh and they use deli quality cream cheese (not that store bought stuff). They also serve hot sandwich's (ready-made once they gone, that's it!), tons of pastries, ready to go yogurts and coffee beans by the lb. Monthly specials always in line with holiday themes (March - St Patty drinks, February - Valentines Days, Fall - Pumpkin spice vibes, etc) It feels like a cabin living room which is cozy and intimate. If you're studying or doing work, team will bring your order to you and you can pay from the table you sit! Love these guys and def a local staple for sure.

Came here for the first time for a coffee run and they did have a lot of coffee and pastry options…read more I decided to go with a coffee that was barista choice but it was not the best choice in my opinion. I ordered a triple expresso shot with their butternut cold foam. The expresso shots were a bit watery and it felt like they gave me cold brew and not expresso shots. The foam on top was a bit liquidy as well and not thick as most cold foams are, The staff was friendly but overall, I would probably come back to try something else and possibly work from there as well. The place felt cozy and quiet and super welcoming !

This was my second time at a Toast but the first time at this location. It was a bit nostalgic for…read moreme as the building used to house a bar my husband and I frequented many, many years ago. Needless to say even though the footprint was basically the same the interior has been changed is very open and inviting. A friend and I were there for lunch around 1:30 on a Monday. No issue getting a table and were seated immediately. Katie our server was very nice, pleasant and efficient. Drink were brought out quickly and our order taken. My friend got an omelet special with Irish bangers and cheese with home fries and rye toast. She enjoyed the omelet and I have to say the rye bread was outstanding. Don't think it's made in house but were ever they get it from is really good. I got a lunch special of Pot Roast sandwich with onions, mushrooms and cheese on thick cut bread. It was served with a au jus dipping sauce. If it's on the menu don't hesitate to get it, it was outstanding and so stuffed I could only eat half. Will absolutely be returning to Toast !

I passed by it twice, and the second time around I went it to try it out. When I came in, I was greeted by a young girl. It was empty in here, but it is 3pm on a Thursday. I asked what she would suggest, and she said any of the milk teas. I noticed they had Taro, which I had once before and LOVE. So, I got the Taro milk tea with tapioca boba. Let me just say it is DELICIOUS!! I am now obsessed with this place and will be coming here from now on. You can taste how fresh it is. It's very modern and sleek. Which is nice to see at Tanger outlets. I will be coming here every time I come to the outlets. It's so good

I've been meaning to try this cafe for a while, it's been recommended by a few people…read more First of all, the coffee is probably the best I've had at a cafe. I like my coffee with breakfast simple with a dash of milk and some sugar. I love that they had milk substitute specifically oat milk. I like a sweet breakfast so I ordered Nikki's Nutella crepe. I really enjoyed it. It was delicious and wasn't heavy. The service here is great there wasn't much of a wait at all for our food and our waitress kept our coffee cups full. I like that antique decorations at the entrance. I definitely want to try their other locations.

Portion size was smaller than I expected…read more I had a diner experience idea when I decided to try it. That's not totally what I got..It was more crowded/busy when the early weekday afternoon we ate there. Our server seemed overwhelmed. The food was good, the "Gatsby" decor was a nice surprise.

This was my first time actually visiting the shop, but my second time enjoying their doughnuts. My…read morefirst impression walking in was, "This is cool." The whole pink doughnut shop with an '80s vibe was on point--cassette tapes, a Walkman on the wall, and that nostalgic MTV candy-store energy. The design was clean, fun, and full of personality. It's takeout only, so there's no seating, but the atmosphere still makes an impression. I ordered the Caramel Crumb Cake, Jelly, and Chocolate Cake doughnuts. The Caramel Crumb Cake was absolutely delicious--soft, flaky, and the caramel drizzle took it to another level. It honestly tasted like a decadent cinnamon bun in doughnut form. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you appreciate great doughnuts and a fun throwback vibe. My only complaint is I seemed to remember the Doughnuts being bigger the last time I came. Service wasn't terrible but dude was a little sterile. But the Doughnuts definitely made up for the experience. I came in curious. I left loyal. This place understands the assignment. I'll definitely come back.

All of the flavors were nice and moist on the inside and the toppings were delicious. By the time I got there at 1pm, most donuts were sold out (popular spot) but they had a good selection to work with! My favorite was the glazed donut. It was so soft and pillowy. It melted in my mouth! I would definitely want to come back and grab a different dozen of donuts. The staff was super friendly and the place is just super cute and cozy! I would definitely come back to try more and would recommend for others to try.
