I came here for the first time today. My brother and a friend made tge recommendation. I was wondering why we were driving so far away from Montauk Highway. But it turns out the food here is some of the best Ive ever had on Long Islams. We can perhaps go further and say best anywhere. My main course was a Flounder Marinara. It was amazingly tasty and fresh! The garlic bread was crispy and nustmike homemade. And I can't even spell the name of the amazing dessert. I'm more Interested in the food and not the decor - so Id recommend avoiding the advice of anyone who feels that it isn't up to their "fancy" standards. The food was great! read more

Fantastic food. But hands down the worst service uve had in my entire life. Not sure who was serving, the owner or what. Sweet lady they call nona. But she fkrgot everything i asked for. Had to ask for the check 4 times. And i woukd watch her leave my table go behind the bar and chit chat with her friends. It took an hour to get my meal. It took an hour to get my check. Only redeeming quality was the food was good. The chicken parm was to die for. The alfreso tortelini was average. Tortelini overcooked and mushy, and the alfredo sauce was clumpy. The tomato soup was great though. And the atmosphere was pleasant. Dim lighting, small bar area seats only 4. But pleasant aesthetics. Very mom and pop feel. Wish the service was better. One table had complained they been there 3 hours and still werent served their meal. They ended up taking it to go. And no it was not packed. There wwas only three tables seated. read more

I had dinner for 11 on a Friday night in onofrios. The food was absolutely delicious. The service was above and beyond. I can't say enough about it but it was one of the best meals Ive had in a long time . Everyone raved about the food not one of my family was disappointed. The restaurant is so quaint and our table was all set up when we arrived it was just the perfect evening thank you read more

Onofrio's Italian Restaurant - What a joke!! I can't figure out how they stay in business! - Italian Near Me - Mastic Beach, New York

We have been living in Mastic Beach for about 5 years and today was the 1st time we went to Onofrio's. It is a small restaurant with a small parking space. Reservations are not required but they are recommended. When we got there at 6, it was busy but we were able to be seated right away. We started with the garlic bread which was good. Then we got the Cheese Pizza Pie and we enjoyed it. You can purchase a pie with your choice of toppings but we just got it with cheese. Then we had the baked clams which I really enjoyed. Our entree came with either soup or salad. I chose the soup, and the soup of the day was clam chowder. I've tried many clam chowders and I really didn't like this one. It was salty and didn't really taste like clam chowder. Next time, I would choose the salad or maybe try another kind of soup. We then had chicken parm with spaghetti was delicious and so was the lasagna. We drank water but the everyone from the table next to us ordered the homemade Ice Tea which I would like to try next time. Also, I saw another table order the Mussels and they looked so goooood. I would definitely go back to try those. Staff was friendly. It was a little quiet in there, maybe some music would be nice. I think they do play music but not sure at what time. Prices are also reasonable! Especially with things being so expensive nowadays. read more

have been going here for years! absolutely my favorite Pizza, actually I enjoy everything they offer- try the garlic bread it's crispy and buttery! the baked clams? this is the only place I will order them! if you can catch the cream of broccoli soup, try it! Steve, thanks for everything! chris read more

Small, quaint place with a "grandma's dining room" ambiance. Food was very tasty and reasonably priced. Failed to mention that there is a $5 charge for the garlic bread when asked if we wanted some, but it was worth the price. Always busy regardless of time and day of the week (every table sat at 7pm on a Thursday night). Could use a little more waitstaff, as service was a little slow. Taste of the food made it worth the wait. read more

The food at Onofrio's, Mastic Beachis delicious. We went there Friday evening and everything from Pizza, mussels, pasta dishes, Fish & Steak were incredible. The waitress was one of the best I've met in a long time. Tonight, Monday we enjoyed our leftovers of veal and eggplant. It tasted as good as on Friday!! We will definitely go back, even though we live in Islip. read more

My husband and I had dinner tonight at Onofrio's. The owners, Patti and Steve are just the best. Steve does an extraordinary job cooking. We ordered shrimp scampi, lasagna, chicken francese and baked clams. The food was amazing. The chicken was so tender, we could cut it with a fork. Patti is the hostess/waitress/and Onofrio's social butterfly ! She meets and greets everyone who comes in, whether it's to dine in or take out. The dining room is warm and cozy and makes you feel like you're home. I would definitely recommend reservations for the weekend. Onofrio's is definitely worth trying - you'll be sure to go back many times ! read more

Outstanding old-fashioned Italian cuisine in a cozy environment with live entertainment on the weekends. Perfect local restaurant for any occasion! read more

Onofrio's Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Mastic Beach, New York

We haven't been to this restaurant in years- we moved out of the area. The food was always great. We moved back into the area decided to go to Onofrio's for dinner. There was only 1 other couple in the restaurant at the time-and they were served dinner. As we were ordering, two other couples were seated. We saw this and ordered quickly. I believe our waiter ( and only waiter) was inexperienced. I'll make this short. The waiter was serving salads to another couple. So we asked for out salad- it was fresh and tasted very good. No appetizers yet- waited and waited. Finally it gets there - tasted ok. Nothing great nothing bad. Still no dinner after 90+ minutes. One couple started to eat dinner. We ordered eggplant parm. Finally, we asked it to go. 2 hours and no dinner. BS. It took 15 minutes after we asked for the check. Then, he didn't have a pen. Another 4 minutes. Too much, I had to go BTW- we had the dinner the next night and the food was excellent! This was on a Tuesday night I believe. Hopefully, they have different staff on the weekend. We might go back, but not for awhile. Maybe do a takeout. read more

Always a treat! If you are looking for great Italian food, this little spot is a treasure.

Decided to have dinner here with a neighbor and friend, after a long absence, so glad we did. Nothing had changed since my last visit, which, in my opinion is the best compliment one can give to a restaurant. Cozy, welcoming, like Sunday dinner at mama's. Made with love, and lots of it. xo read more

Delicious food in a nice quiet atmosphere. Service was excellent. My new weekly dinner spot.

This is a small family owned business that has been here for many years. The food is deliciously freshly made and the service is efficient. I had veal Milanese and my husband had Chicken Parmigiana, both plentiful and delicious! It was our first time here and we'll be back. read more

I can only speak for the pizza. It was expensive (2 pies for $28), tiny ( large pie couldnt have been more the 13 inches in diameter) and I am convinced it was a frozen pre made pizza pirchased from a food distributor. It was on par with chucky cheese or dominos, I kid you not. The cheese did not even taste real. Maybe their pasta dishes are what has kept them in business for so long because it couldn't possibly be the pizza. read more

I love the pizza here. It's my favorite pizza, it's a unique crust that's crisp and buttery, a sweet sauce.

The home made Creamy Italian salad dressing is out of this world. The best I've ever tasted.

I love this little Mom and Pop restaurant. We went tonight with our girls. We always get the garlic bread for 3 bucks, it is good. The restaurant is cozy and warm. We have taken friends and they have loved it and went back on their own The best is the anything francaise. They make the best sauce. My daughter had the chicken francaise tonight. Yum! I love the eggplant parmesan The eggplant is not greasy fried. My husband had the tortellini alfredo He added sausage. I had a taste, it was excellent. and the little one has angel hair with carbonara sauce. It was very good. I had baked clams. I love when the place leaves them whole. The staff is friendly and so is the owner. read more

Decided to try this restaurant on a recommendation and sad to say we were very disappointed!! We ordered chicken marsala and the chicken was hard and rubbery - totally inedible. Left it untouched and the waiter didn't even ask about it. The pasta with clams had no taste and the fried calamari had a thick hard breading that was odd. Will never go back. Not worth it!! read more

I've heard their pizza's incredible. What wasn't incredible was the dark living room vibe, serial killer decor, windowless bathroom (hard to find the light switch), and fruit flies in the balsamic vin. We had to ask for oil and vin with bread even though those typically come out automatically (we shouldn't have to ask). The bread 10/10 looked store bought. My recommendation: order out. Bugs in the food is a turn off. Staff is nice, we just couldn't make it past all warning signs and left before the food came out. If you're going to do pizza in the northeast (very common, many options), your resto should be well run and well maintained at a min. read more

Onofrio's is a small place with live music and friendly staff. The parking lot was a little tight, but it makes sense for a small place to have a small parking lot. When I went, we had everything from appetizers to dessert. If I had to choose a favorite, I would choose the mussel appetizer. Just the mussels and the garlic bread filled me up! The Eggplant Romano came with a choice of soup or salad, so it was definitely a lot of food! I took the Eggplant Romano home and ate it the next day. I can't tell if the taste changed, but the pasta tasted bland, to me. They also have a huge selection of wines, both red and white. I'm not a fan of red wine, but my friend drank a whole bottle of Da Vinci Chianti. I guess it must have been good! read more

This place has been here since I was a child but other than take out pizza I've never really been. One night my brother was like let's go to Onofrio's and I was like OK whatever and I'm happy we did because wow the food is so good. We have eaten here and have done take out several times and everything dish was on point. The place may need to be updated but other than that the atmosphere is awesome, it's nice and quiet, the lights are dim and that's how I like my dinner. Staff is super nice, food comes out quickly and everything seems to be clean. read more

Old school restaurant. Service is not fast, sometime you just want to relax and enjoy your meal. Food is very good Limited Menu, basic italian old school restaurant. Love going there. Just don't be in a hurry, and you will enjoy yourself give it a try read more

After months of coming too early or going on days they are closed, it was finally time to dine at "Onofrio's" for two. Going there they have parking on the side which is perfect because I didn't have to look for a space. When I walked in the first thing I thought was "The Godfather" nice authentic Italian dining. What to listen to Justin Bieber in "Onofroi's?" "Forget'a bout it!" It Franky blue eyes all the way. The place is small and inviting, perfect for a intimate first date. When I walked in I was greeted by Katie, the best waitress on Long Island. She was very friendly, polite, and entertaining, I enjoyed her serves very much. I can't stress enough how comfortable this place makes you feel. The environment is so relaxing. Katie brought over lemon water as well as Italian bread that was lightly toasted. I started of with a appetizer, I got the crab cake. Perfect idea! The crab cake was outstanding. When you order a main course it comes with a soup or salad and a pasta followed by your entrée. I settled on the creamy Caesar salad which delivered on taste. It was fresh and had Parmesan on it (did I mention I love CHEESE). Next was the main course the chicken parmigiana. Wow! When I tell you it was great believe it was great. The marinara sauce was homemade and not from a can, the chicken was crunchy on the outside and mouth watering in the inside and the Cheese was just enough to bring it all together. I instantly feel in love with this place. Finally, Katie strong armed me into getting the cheese cake with raspberry sauce on the side. Is there any way to describe perfect. I mean it had to be made fresh because it didn't have that "sit in refrigerator taste" some cakes have when they sit to long. It was crazy how good the gram cracker base was. I almost decided to run in the back and take the entire cake with me. I'm telling you please check out this place. If your a fan of great Italian food and a good vibe go check it out. If you refuse I'll have you sleeping with the fishes.......... read more

So for pizza out here I love this one..its like from Block Island..fried pizza taste..crust amazing.but past few times too much parm cheese on it!?? Did not want it oN our pizza..ruined taste..but used to be Best around for mileS!!! read more

"When the moon hits the sky..." I remember as a teen taking out pizza from here and my mother making me "carry it home in the car on my lap over a towel so I wouldn't burn my legs" That happened. Sad/Funny part is I miss that pizza. The ownership has changed and I miss the crust that I want so badly now (and used to hate) My Mom used to love "meatball" toppings which I learned to love. But I remember it wasn't just beef it was legit "meatballs". We ate IN the restaurant once...leave it to take out Staff who would check us out for our take out pizza were always very nice. I felt like such a big kid when I was allowed in while my Mom stayed in the car. Sadly, not sure it's the same. But in her day was the best deal/taste/quality in the town. read more

Sorry to the 2 before me who gave it five stars, but I have to go with one. Never again will I order pizza from here. Today was my first and last. I got excited because of the good reviews, so I had to try, being the pizza connoisseur that I am. The large pie, which is really a medium at a large price, is not at all special. The cheese is way too salty, the sauce is way too sweet. This honestly looks and tastes like a DiGiorno pizza from a box. Try Carlo's Pizza down the road on William Floyd Parkway in East Yaphank. Now THAT'S a pizza. read more

No garlic knots, specialty pies or slices. Sauce is awful and management is awful Patty has no idea how to use the register and has been known to screw up on a person's credit card Don't waste your time you will get ripped off read more

Excellent pan pizza. Honestly delicious. Cute little place that's been around forever. Moved to the area 1 week ago, and have eaten from there twice already. Can't wait to go back! read more

One of the best pizzas ever! The crust has a slight taste of olive oil, but is not soggy at all! It's actually pretty crispy for a pan pizza. The homemade sauce is delicious (not sweet!) and they put just the right amount of cheese (which is NOT salty) - not too much, but not stingy either! My husband and I have tried MANY different pizzas from many different places. Onofrio's is definitely in the top five, and that includes Lombardi's in NYC and Pepe's in CT! I've noticed in this economy that many pizza places have gone downhill by using crap ingredients to save money (for example, Mario's in Commack), but Onofrio's has not done this! It's nice to have a place so close by that I can count on for a good pie! read more

Same family for over fifty years and the pizza and garlic bread tastes just as good as it did when I was a kid. When I was a kid, my parents and grandparents told me the food tastes just as good as it did when the place opened. 100% go with the cheese pizza and the garlic bread! read more
