    Chicken Parmesan

    Had to wait 25-30 minutes for chicken parmesan. The food was decent but not worth the wait.

    European wrap
    Barry H.

    I'm back baby!! There was a muscle maker Grill in East Meadow Long Island, at which I ate once or twice daily, to help me enjoyably lose 50 pounds or more. However they closed that store and left me high and dry. Needless to say, I gained back nearly all of that weight in the years since. But whatever I can I'm going to try to get to this Muscle Maker in the Bronx to stock up on sandwiches so that at least I can use them in the same way toward healthy eating. Let's see what happens. Upon pick up, I eat my first European wrap. Not sure I'm going to order many of these because the spinach and peppers are wet and along with the cucumber salad on the side I need the sandwiches to stay dry for days. I might have to make arrangements with ownership to put the cucumber salad on the side when I do make a pick up in the future

    Dig Into It~ (Asian Ginger Salad W/Out Chicken)- & Tasty
    Mercedes C.

    For an underrated Throgs Neck eatery, Muscle Maker has everything from Salads, Burgers, Bowls, Wraps, Pastas- down to the Quinoa. Menu is extensive- but you can swap this for that- even eliminate an item or two. Muscle Maker can possibly seat up a big crowd. Has a combination of blacks, reds, whites design with ceiling pipes almost running towards the back. There's a good view of the prep station (from what I saw). I ordered up front- though not sure if there's any other way. Since I decided on getting rid of the chicken in my option, these guys made me a decent Asian Ginger (Iceberg Base) Salad without that protein and then I added sautéed Mushrooms. And boy... it was incredibly juicy and tasty. Price was fair for the fresh ingredients- even the fresh mushrooms used. Plus service was super chill from my homeboy- even telling me they have Shrimp and Tilapia options last minute....you know I'm gonna hit this place up again.

    Get your strength up!

    Muscle Maker has been one of my go to spots for a few years now and somehow this review managed to slip through the cracks so to speak. Eat Good. Feel Good. Is the MMG's motto and they live up to it. With made to order meals using fresh waistline friendly ingredients. There hasn't been an item on the menu that I've tried and wasn't pleased with. Each meal will run you on average about $10 and since they are made to order you will have to wait. A well worth it wait btw. This location is spacious, clean and has a nice staff. They even have a fitness studio at the back where classes are held weekly @ a nominal fee. Of all the locations I've been to by far this is one of my favs. They offer delivery, however because of popularity there can be a wait. If you know what you want I recommend calling it in and the doing a drive-by self pick-up. Just A Note: Sadly but respected they are closed on Sundays.

    Arizona vegan meal - lol look at all the bacon

    When I called I was told that the Arizona bike would be the easiest to make vegan. They would take out the bacon and add more vegetables and vegan burger meat. I was looking forward to this for my lunch - so disappointed the meal came with bacon.

    Keto Buffalo  with chicken
    Sheena O.

    Looked up keto on uner eats and came across this gem that had a specific keto section. I was so pleased because I recently started dipping my toe in the keto world. After looking through the menu I settled on the spinach Caesar wrap with mixed veg and the keto Buffalo plate with chicken. I really enjoyed the keto plate and the spinach wrap was good. I also ordered the signature sauce on the side and that was tasty. Definitely a fan and if im in the area again I will definitely return.

    Rocky Balboa Wrap $15. Rock solid, dry and old meatballs. No marinara sauce and dry, burnt grilled chicken. Uneditable and thrown away !!!

    Hello I don't usually give reviews about food but this one will help others to avoid this Muscle Maker. I just received 2 Rocky Balboa wraps which consist of meatballs, grilled chicken and marinara sauce. The meatball was rock solid and the grilled chicken was very dry. To top it off they forgot to put the marinara sauce on it. I was trying to call them to complain and no one answered the phone and voicemail box was full. So now the wraps are in the garbage and I'm out 30 bucks for 2 of them. Beware of this restaurant. VERY POOR CUSTOMERS SERVICE.

    Turkey Chili Salad
    Isabel J.

    After working out my friend suggested we come here for lunch. I had never heard of this chain but I'm glad we came. Love how they have dishes that are usually full of calories but they make them a lot healthier. I got to try the turkey chili and Italian salad. They were both really good and filling. Everything was very fresh and the girls behind the counter were super nice and helpful. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because I wish they made fresh green juices in addition to just protein smoothies.

    Very disappointing, this was included in my meal plan. This is a Caesar salad. Looks like they ran out of lettuce. Same with all my other meals they skimped out.

    Dry overcooked chicken and not so fresh iceberg lettuce

    I was really looking forward to trying this place. I was underwhelmed with the food and drink…read moreoptions and the service experience. There are some dedicated parking spaces that have a three hour limit if dining. Upon arrival, I entered the inside restaurant space for Dakota's on the Grove. It was aesthetically pleasing. I should have sat inside here instead of in their outdoor space which they call The Grove at Dakota's. I was able to choose where I wanted to sit, so I chose a table near this shed where the bartender/waiter was. I noticed they were setting up for the Knicks Game 3 final and there were two large TVs and a projection screen. I overheard the waiter state that the area would be packed for the game tonight. There was also good music playing throughout. They had a large connect four, which would be nice to play. They are family friendly and had high chairs for babies and toddlers. When sitting outside they state that they have to preauthorize your card. Now getting onto the food. I was seated and provided with two menus. I immediately asked for a happy hour menu and then I waited for about 15 minutes, until I followed up with another waiter who brought out the menu for me. For the happy hour menu before I received my food I initially thought the prices were good, but upon receiving my food it was evident that the prices are off in terms of the portion size of the food. I ordered a $5 slider. I thought it would be a decent size. It was incredibly small. For the $5 price they should give at minimum 2 sliders but ideally 3. This would incentivize people to buy more. The slider was the best thing I tasted while there and I would have liked more but I couldn't justify spending another $5 when it was so tiny. The tiny slider appeared to be the portion size for a toddler. I ordered calamari which was $9. I was initially disappointed that there was such a small amount. I was even more disappointed when I tasted them. They tasted very "fishy." They absolutely needed a squeeze of lemon and fresh cracked black pepper to try and balance and mask the taste. I believe the portion size for the fries was also off for $5. The fries came in a teacup. Fries are something that people tend to order to have something to pick at while dining and it would make sense I think to provide more fries for the same price. I also could not justify getting another set of fries in a small teacup for $5. I did not like the taste of the fries. When the sparse calamari, tiny beef slider, and small teacup of fries came out, I realized I would not be full and ordered chicken wings from the happy hour menu. You have to get a minimum of 6. You cannot mix the flavors. They were out of the dockside fire sauce so I went with the garlic parm. These wings did not taste like garlic parm. The garlic parm seemed like an afterthought, which was just sprinkled on the wings at the very end. The chicken itself did not have much flavor. They did not mention providing any dipping sauce. I asked for blue cheese and I had to wait for about ten minutes and then remind another waiter that I was still waiting for my blue cheese. They were out of the mozzarella sticks. Moving onto the drinks. While I get being outside and maybe wanting to serve drinks in plastic to minimize glassware breaking, I did not enjoy being served Pinot Noir in a plastic cup or the white cranberry lemon drop in a plastic cup. Each time I was taken aback that they weren't offered in glassware. I got the $7 Pinot Noir from the happy hour menu. A regular glass of Pinot Noir is $9. I also ordered the white cranberry lemon drop which is priced at $12 and is not included on the happy hour menu. The drink came out in the same sized small plastic cup as the Pinot Noir. I think once again that glassware should be used. When ordering a lemon drop you tend to expect a chilled frosty glass with a sugar rim, and that was not what I received here. I think the sugar rim would have elevated the taste profile of the drink. All in all, I really liked the outdoor area. I would probably only return to get a canned beer in the outside section. I hope they start to carry some sour beer options. I do not see myself trying the food again, with the exception of a burger (since the burger was really good.) I did have an inquiry regarding the pre-authorization charge and the final charge that I saw on my credit card. I called and left a message and the restaurant got back to me quickly, which I really appreciated.

There were people in their polo shirts coming off the golf course as well as people just there for a meal. We went for Sunday brunch. My mom had crab cakes and a ceasar salad, my dad had pizza, I had the truffle burger and my son had a cheeseburger that looked the same size as mine. I have to say I loved my burger. While I differ on our ex presidents views, this place knows how to make a great truffle burger. We all enjoyed our food. I opted for the bottomless brunch while everyone else had the brunch.

The restaurant itself is attractive, bright, spacious, and decidedly upscale. Although we had made a reservation, it really wasn't necessary on a weekday. The hostess warmly invited us to sit wherever we liked and promptly provided menus and a beverage list. Unfortunately, the service got off to a slow start. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, it took quite a while for our server to acknowledge us and take our order. A few more minutes and we were prepared to leave. My dining companion ordered the hamburger, while I chose the Cubano sandwich. Both dishes were attractively presented and quite tasty. The food was definitely the highlight of the experience. Our primary disappointment was the service. The server never formally welcomed us or introduced herself. Given the Bally's brand and the restaurant's upscale appearance, I expected a more polished level of hospitality. Obtaining our check was also a lengthy process. At one point, our server appeared engaged in conversation with the bartender, then walked past our table and disappeared into the kitchen for several minutes. Upon her return, I had to raise my hand to get her attention. To be fair, she was pleasant and courteous, but she wasn't particularly attentive--especially considering that we appeared to be her only active table. I had noticed similar comments about inconsistent service in previous reviews and assumed they reflected busy weekend conditions. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case during our visit. We had considered staying for dessert, but decided against making the additional time investment. Now that I've experienced Bally's Waterfront Restaurant, I don't think I'll be returning.

The chef comes from the world of high-end NYC dining, and you can feel that experience in every detail of the food. There's a level of creativity, precision, and thoughtfulness here that honestly feels Michelin-worthy. This makes sense, because the restaurant has earned that recognition. Beyond the food, Archie's also has one of the best Scotch and whiskey (bourbon and rye included) selections anywhere in the area. It feels curated by people who genuinely care about food and drink, not just running another restaurant. We eat there often, especially for brunch, which is spectacular and consistently better than it has any right to be for a neighborhood spot on City Island. The best example of the attention to detail was the chopped cheese sandwich special. When it arrived, my first thought was: "How is anyone supposed to eat this giant thing?" But then you take a bite and realize the bread was custom made specifically for the sandwich. Somehow it completely melts in your mouth along with the meat and cheese, making this enormous sandwich unexpectedly delicate and perfectly balanced. It's the kind of detail most restaurants would never even think about. Archie's is a true hidden gem and proof that truly exceptional food can exist in places you wouldn't expect.

We got: BEEF TERIYAKI STICKS So tasty, cooked well with a slight char to it and seasoned enough to give it flavor, but nothing overwhelming. CRAB RANGOON These were so crispy and creamy, so freaking good with lots of crab and cream cheese with every bite. FRIED CHICKEN WINGS These chicken wings were GOOOOD! Perfectly fried crispy outside and juicy chicken inside. The flavoring of the outside was very flavorful and made every bite so satisfying. Wish we got an additional order! SAUTÉED STRING BEANS This is a comfort food for me, just your basic green beans sautéed in super light soy sauce and garlic. YUMMMM! BEEF CHOW FUN Another comfort food of stir fried beef and bean sprouts. So tasty and the rice noodles were perfectly fried and chewy. PORK FRIED RICE This pork fried rice was super tasty, but different. The rice was more pilaf which I absolutely loved and there was so much barbecued pork in it. Wasn't saturated in soy sauce which is how it normally comes, a really light and tasty fried rice. HOT & SOUR SOUP I love hot and sour soup and this was sooo good. It wasn't too sour, flavored and spiced just enough to check all the boxes and left me wanting another bowl full! Spent over $50 and got a free 2-Liter soda too! Will definitely stop by this place again on my future drives through or to NY!!!
