Wasn't expecting much based on other reviews, but the moment I arrived the customer service was excellent. Valet was very pleasant and even offered to help us snap some pics. Hostess was also nice and was able to accommodate our request for a seat with a view. And last but not least, our waiter was awesome! (I think his name was Tom). He surprised us with a candle lit dessert and sang a wonderful opera rendition of Happy Birthday since we were celebrating one. The food was actually pretty good too, especially the tender grilled octopus. Had a great experience tonight. Two thumbs up for sure. read more

Came here on a Wed night. The atmosphere is great, right on the water, with big windows and outdoor seating overlooking the marina The overall vibe is modern and relaxed but still feel like a step up from your casual spot, so good when one want something a little nicer without getting too formal. read more

Pricey restaurant for average experience. Its a nice view. Decor is okay. Service was excellent. But the thing I couldn't get past was the food. Came here to celebrate a birthday for one of the girls. We had some rose and a couple of mocktails and ordered the calamari for a starter. It was too fishy and too salty, no lemons to squeeze over them. And I think we all would have preferred marinara sauce over the aoli provided for dipping. We didnt even finish it. The entrees were no better. I ordered the lobster bucatini and it had no flavor whatsoever. My friends ordered spicy rigatoni and chicken marsala. No flavor. Rigatoni was too tough. We asked for parmesan, red pepper flakes and salt which helped some. Only the chicken parm was decent. Tiramisu was excellent. Nutella brownie was a blondie but pretty good. I don't think any of us will be back here. We tried. That's all we can do! read more

A beautiful interior and outside seating too. Inside is a little too loud and a little to cold. Sitting outside this afternoon was very comfortable. The service was attentive and not intrusive. My friends loved their meatball pizza and beet salad. My lobster buccatini was hearty, but the sauce was a little too creamy. The kale salad with salmon came with a nice big piece of salmon, but would have been better with less dressing. read more

The service. Took 15 minutes for SOMEONE to give us a menu. Drinks were dripping due to the over-pouring. We sat there for 30 min talking and finished our drink... never saw bartender again. We asked bus boy to grab our check. The bar itself was very messy purse and jacket and backpack o top of the register and bottles. Two couples at the bar. Not busy. Beautiful Sunday 8/23/26 @2:30pm. Shame DO NOT recommend. read more

Nino’s Beach - Zoom in on messy bar - Wine Bars Near Me - Port Washington, New York

Came here for a friends birthday brunch and the place itself is really nice, but omg, the smell outside is awful. As soon as you park and walk up to the entrance, there's a strong sewage-like odor, probably from the nearby water, and not gonna lie, it was a huge turn-off right away. Once inside, though, the space is beautiful and my friends were already seated. We were a large group of 10+ and went with the pre-fixe option for $90 per person (plus tax and tip), which included food and unlimited spritz or wine, a pretty good deal. Everything was served family-style with a little bit of everything: salad, chicken, fish, pizza, and pasta. Overall, the food was good and we had a fun time, but I just couldn't get past the smell. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd come back, but it's worth considering for the value if that doesn't bother you. read more

If you go for food, I would say NO If you go for the environment, I would say YES. Great service but the food portion is too small for that price mark. I would rather go to Llimani or any other restaurant by Port Washington and Manhasset . The view is beautiful read more

A coworker invited me out for a work dinner with other E.R. buddies. I'm not sure who chose the place, but I liked the choice. The proximity to the water (you can pull right up on your boat), sunset views, a beautifully designed interior and a very wide-ranging seafood menu should be the makings of a perfect night out. They came close but unfortunately fell just short. One of the members of our party was excessively late. Not only was she late, but she also didn't expeditiously get a handle on what she was looking for when the waitress (black hair, single french-braid down the back) came to ask us what we wanted to order. All of that is 100% on us. However, the waitress caught a little bit of quiet attitude and it showed in her body language as well as the fact that she seemed to purposely leave us hanging for a while. Menus were down and we waited a bit for her to return. She took orders from adjacent tables, but didn't check on us for quite a while. As much as we were at fault as a party for not having it together, that was not a professional look on the part of the waitress. In any case, the food and drinks were actually good. There was one cocktail I had that had vodka and lemoncello. I can't recall the name, but it was a refreshing summer drink. I also had the "Mango Llada," which was also good but maybe a little sweet to be drinking with dinner. I went to read wine once my steak arrived. We had several other apps including the grilled octopus and the crab cakes, which were great! My compatriots had various pasta dishes that I didn't try, but they cleaned their plates which was a good indicator. All in all, the meal was good, once it arrived. The sunset was beautiful. We sat outside which was good people watching and it was the coolest thing to see couples arriving for dinner via boat. We could have had an interior table but one of the other members of my party felt it was a little bit loud. I didn't mind the volume, but he is a very soft-spoken man, so take that as you will. The bottom line is that I think you should make a visit to the restaurant. It's a great date spot in my opinion. Special shout out to the curly-haired bus-boy wearing glasses, Josh (Joshua?). He was actually very attentive to our needs. To any managers reading this: Promote him! The valet guys were cool and efficient too. If ever I need a place for a 1-on-1, with some good people-watching. I'll be back. You should consider it too. read more

So we went back this week to give it another try, we were seated at a table and waited 20 minutes. No one even came by to say hello and many waiters walked by , and nothing ,this place is basically very pretentious. The food is not even that good and the service is horrible. I don't think I'll ever come back read more

I went with a friend for dinner the other night and had a great time... I always do. The staff is always courteous, and the GM John was very friendly and helpful and gave us a great table along the water. The food was delicious, as usual, and our peartini cocktails were delicious. Nino's Beach has a sexy sophisticated vibe - I love the plush green upholstery. That night they had a DJ, Geo Roc, who played fun beats all night long. There's a parking lot onsite with valet parking, which is a plus. Can't wait to go back soon. read more

Well it is an absolutely beautiful restaurant, on the water with great views of boats and the sky. Interior is beautiful with two bars and an outdoor eating area on the water. The biggest negative is the acoustics. I generally am not bothered by noise but the noise level was pretty loud and almost painful. A big negative. Service from the waitstaff was just ok, but the bussers were excellent. Obviously, they were very busy, and the servers seemed to be racing around, not a relaxing vibe for sure . Food was good and presented beautifully. I don't eat octopus and the tuna tar tar only came with squid ink crisps. I asked if there was anything else, some other cracker and it was a NO. Kinda annoying. There is valet parking. read more

Huge shoutout to the servers for their hard work! I came here for a Mother's Day celebration and it was definitely a packed night but the servers were running around and making sure everyone was taken care of. We all had a great time and the food was delicious! I'd definitely get multiple dishes to share and there's many options. My favorite had to be the hot honey pepperoni pizza. Their pizza dough was so soft and I usually toss them aside but this one was easy to eat. The chicken Parmesan did come out raw but they got it fixed for us straight away and even comped it from the bill. It seemed like the chicken cutlet may have been a bit too thick because the second time it came, the cutlet was much thinner. I'd highly recommend their fig salad as well to cut the grease and fats. The views were gorgeous and seating is quite comfortable. To end the meal, we had dessert, which the restaurant also very kindly comped. The desserts were for celebrating a birthday and Mother's Day and we were able to get them with sparklers! I had a great night here and would definitely come back again ! read more

Okay food, price was expected for location but not a great view, tbh. loud music with DJ for no discernible reason

The food was delicious, our server Loretta was great, and the view of sunset from the front room was perfect. Thank you Nino's!

I used to go to Nino's back when it was in Astoria. Love Nino's Beach. It's a STUNNING restaurant with a beautiful, waterfront location. I can't comment on the food since I only came for drinks but if the food is anything like how it was in Queens, you're in for a treat. I had their spritz cocktail and it was delicious. Hefty price tag for a cocktail, but worth it for the views. read more

The bread so far is amazing and it's so good! Plz tell me the ingredients for this! The waiter is so nice and quick and is amazing! The place is amazing and cozy like noglastia beach restaurant.

However, it's very crunchy so I'll forgive it. And the pasta was amazing read more

We came here for a family party. This restaurant is on the beautiful north shore of LI and the large windows let you gaze out onto the picturesque bay/sound views. Maybe one day my winning lotto ticket will allow me one of those yachts... Anyway! The food here was amazing. The marg pizza (we got a few for the table to share for apps) was so good. You can tell they have a real deal wood burning pizza oven here. We had San Pellegrino and Aqua Panna for the table - yes, please. Keep the authentic Italian vibes coming. I ordered the homemade pasta cacio e pepe, which was excellent. The dish was a bit rich (as I expected it to be) so I couldn't eat much (I'm trying to be good!) Thank you Nino's for serving a proper al dente pasta! My husband had the burger which he said was *excellent*, and the fries were good too - wife tax says I'm allowed to share fries. But don't worry, I shared some of my dish with him too and he liked it as well. Both kids loved the pizza so it was a win-win. My only negative was that although the service was friendly, it was glacial slow. I don't mind when a restaurant lets you enjoy but we were here 3+ hours and if you have kids you know the villagers get restless after a while. All in all, solid restaurant, great food and beautiful views. read more

Went for dinner the place was 80 percent empty and yet it took 20 minutes to get a waiter. The menu would be best suited as a lunch menu, nice location on the water and virtually no seafood. I picked two appetizers oysters on the half shell and charred octopus. Couldn't find anything else interesting. Both were good however. My wife got pasta bolognese, I say got because she couldn't eat it, pasta was mush. Drinks were OK. We, as well as the staff were sweating our brains out, hot humid evening and they had all the doors open. This was our second attempt at this place, there won't be a third read more

Visited on a Sunday afternoon and had the best time. The octopus and hamachi crudo were out of this world starters. For our mains we got the spicy vodka rigatoni which had the perfect amount of heat and the lobster bucatini which was perfectly cooked with a generous portion of lobster on top. Don't skip out on dessert because the tiramisu and brownie were 10/10. On the drink front, the coconut Negroni was the perfect sipper. This was the perfect way to start a sunny afternoon on Long Island. So happy I discovered this place! read more

What a stunning restaurant! The space is open, airy, and upscale--perfect for an afternoon event. The food was absolutely delicious; everything we ordered hit the mark.

Visited with my family to celebrate my dad's birthday and we had a nice time. I was surprised by how good the food was. Some picturesque waterfront restaurants focus more on the views and ambiance than the food, but this place has both. The prices are on the higher side, but the menu offers a lot of sharable dishes. We started with the calamari, which was a bit dry, but the mini crab cakes were really good and definitely worth trying. The truffle pizza was tasty, and the parmiggiano herb fries were deliciously crispy. My sister and I shared the spicy vodka rigatoni, which was pretty flavorful. The only hiccups were that they ran out of Prosecco, so I couldn't order an Aperol Spritz, which was surprising for a summery restaurant. To run out of Prosecco on a Friday evening is a bit wild to me. Also, my boyfriend had to return his spaghetti and meatballs because the meatballs were undercooked. That was a let down. When they brought a new plate, the meatballs were cooked perfectly. Despite these issues, I would definitely return. The food is good and it's a nice restaurant to enjoy a summer day. read more

Great ambiance ,atmosphere , excellent cocktails, appetizers, entries and impeccable service

we dined there 8/27/2026. 3 of us got the next day our credit cards were charged 3-4 times and for multiple transactions. i think they are robbing their customers. if we didn't check the statement we would have paid them 1000+ for just drinks and appetizers. this is not acceptable. i will be calling to report them read more

An exceptional upscale dining experience in a stunning waterfront setting. The menu offers an outstanding selection of delicious cuisine with an Italian flair including amazing pizzas, fresh sushi, and expertly crafted specialty cocktails, with so many absolutely delicious gluten-free options as well. You feel like you're away, the atmosphere is sophisticated yet inviting, enhanced by great music, lively theme nights, and beautifully hosted parties that make every visit feel special. The service is consistently warm, attentive, and professional. This is truly one of my family's favorite spots--it never disappoints! From the exceptional food and drinks to the breathtaking views and vibrant ambiance, every experience is memorable And enjoyable! Highly recommended! read more

The restaurants was insanely noisy with no noise abatement whatsoever. The service was clueless, food was good but not nearly good enough to justify the high prices. And adding insult to injury, they tag on a surcharge for credit card payments, even debit cards. If one considers oneself a high end restaurant with high prices, do they expect their customers to carry a bunch of C notes It's another one and done type of place for me read more

Food and ambiance are good, BUT for the price, have the waiters check in on the tables and have some hospitality training please. There are waiter looking staff that are not the waiters that are very unhelpful. How do you drop a few hundred dollar check without saying thank you or have a good weekend?! Service lacks class and hospitality for the type of establishment and price. read more

Overall underwhelming. Came for a family gathering; the meatballs and salad were my favorite but the drinks were incredible inconsistent. I got one with Mezcal and passion fruit and my first was delicious; the second was overwhelmingly too strong and flavor was off because of that. When I went back and asked for it not strong at all, it was even worse for the 3rd (I passed off the second). Ambiance is very pretty with the light but sort of sad during winter seeing all the boats out of the water and the sea so gray. Service was friendly, but not always the most accurate. My father in law asked for flat/still water three different times and was given sparkling every time. read more

Lovely spot right on the water. Valet and street parking available. I dined at Nino's twice during the summer and both times were great. I went on Thursday's when they have a DJ, arrived around 8/830, wasn't that busy. DJ comes on around nine. The chef and his brother are often seen walking around the restaurant checking on tables, they were both very friendly and hospitable. Pizzas and the Caesar salad are both really good, shareable starters. We had the margherita and the truffle pizza, sooo good. Pass on the lobster risotto bite, it was pretty much a big piece of crispy rice topped with a little bit of lobster. The burrata had too much strawberry compote, was more like a dessert. Baked clams are also really good. For dinner I had the linguine clams, clams are very tiny, the sauce was delicious. my cousin had the Bugatti, which wasn't as good, barely had any lobster. Two people at our table had the halibut and loved it. The pork chop, and New York strip were the least favorite, side of mashed potatoes were good. Cocktails are great, bartender was awesome and very accommodating. I recommend the one fire beach or spicy passion fruit margarita. For dessert go with the Nutella brownie, the Tiramisu was disappointing, very creamy, and the lemon cheesecake was super tart, tasted like lemon cello. Perfect spot for date night or girls night. Not many large tables for groups. read more

First time visiting Nino's Beach on a Friday around 7 pm and at first glance the ambiance and views of the water are a super draw in especially with the sun setting...it's super romantic! It was super poppin', lots of people so totally recommend making a resy beforehand and request outdoor seating if this is something you prefer. The food is good! Me and my 3 friends shared bites and we were totally full by the end. We had the calamari, Nonna's meatballs, Summer salad, as well as a marg pizza for starters. The meatballs were a hit, super flavorful and the calamari had an interesting zesty aioli which was delicious. I enjoyed the summer salad because of the strawberrry vinaigrette. The spicy rigatoni was super al dente but I enjoyed it and the fettuccini bolognese was super meaty and hearty. We topped it off with the Nutella brownie and pistachio gelato and our bill came out to a fairly nice price!!! Overall the deduction of the star came from service. It did seem really crowded and maybe wait staff was overwhelmed. We had to wait about 30 or so minutes to place our food order after our drinks were taken. No refills of water throughout the night, we asked about 3 different wait staff who all seemed to have forgot to ever come back. This can be overlooked obviously as we were in no rush!! Would totally come back due to epic views and a solid meal! read more

Ninos Beach is truly an amazing place. I've hosted and attended many events here, and it never disappoints. I absolutely love it. Jon, the GM, always goes above and beyond to take care of us anything we need is handled with such professionalism and a kind smile on his face.

The ambiance is very nice as Nino's has a wonderful location and large windows to view the marina. The service is above average. The cocktails at our table received a mixed review. The espresso martini was good, but the Manhattan's were horrible. We noted to the server the 1st one was not good but decided to order a second with the proviso that the bartender try to make a better one. He didn't. The wine list was very limited and there was no description. I asked the server for help and he knew nothing about the wines. In general, the appetizers and pasta were good, as was the salad. The veal parm for two was well seasoned but on the dry, overcooked side. The branzino was fine. The steak was ok, but for the portion size, seemed very overpriced. Would not go back. read more
