I'm so sorry for the delay on this review--I actually stopped by on June 22nd. My coworkers and I…read morewere looking for a happy hour spot, and when someone suggested ITA, I was honestly stoked! I never got the chance to hit up the Bay Shore location before it closed, so I was excited to finally check this out. ​First off, the place is stunning--total Instagram goals. The ambiance is everything. Honestly, they had me at "girl dinner"--I mean, $25 for a martini, Caesar salad, and truffle fries? Yes, please. I went subbed mine with a cosmopolitan. I'm a total sucker for a good charcuterie board, we had to order that, too. I also grabbed a lemon drop, and we ended the night by splitting the cannoli crumb cake. Our bartender Michael was a doll. Answering our questions and offering to take pics for us. ​Such a solid spot. Definitely keeping this in mind for a future date night! Now only if I had a date ‍‍

As an 100% Italian, whose grandparents were born in Italy, I am pretty critical on this dish. I will say this; all restaurants these days portray this as a soup. It really isn't. It's more of a thick stew. However, I'm trying to get used to this concept. Locale does the new version of this as good as you could possibly do it. The flavor is actually authentic to the way my grandmother used to make it. It's just thinner. I'm sure a lot of you have never had this any other way, so it won't be a big deal. That being said I 100% recommend it. As referenced in my early review, I had Nonna's meatball as well. This is a 100% authentic delicious Italian meatball. My opinion is unfettered. This is a fantastic Italian restaurant and you guys should all check it out.

Furci's Pizzeria - Bayport…read more First impression when pulling up -- this place is massive. Then you realize it's a market along with a pizza spot. The pizzeria itself is actually pretty small, with just a few tables and a small counter area. There's a good variety of pizza and specialty items, and the staff was attentive even though they were pretty busy. We came specifically because of all the recent buzz about their New Haven-style pizza. We've been to New Haven many, many times, and unfortunately, while the attempt is definitely there, New Haven it is not. If you've never had the real thing in New Haven, you might think, "Okay, I get it," but the South Shore of Long Island is still a long way from New Haven, Connecticut. The Bambinos were tasty, but the best thing we had was the Chicken Alla Vodka with fresh mozzarella. Thin-cut breaded and fried chicken with fresh mozz -- really good. Unfortunately, the vodka sauce itself was a little bit of a letdown. Overall, we weren't disappointed. There were some good bites, the staff was solid, and there's plenty to choose from. Definitely worth stopping in if you're passing through Bayport, but I wouldn't make the trip expecting a true New Haven pizza experience.

As someone who probably takes pizza a little more seriously than any reasonable adult should, I can…read moreconfidently say this place deserves all five stars. I've tried pizza from Montauk to Manhattan it's nothing short of amazing. The New Haven-style pizza was fantastic. Thin, crisp, beautifully charred, and with just the right amount of chew. That slightly blistered crust brought exactly the flavor you want from this style of pizza. No flop here, just crunch and crisp all the way through. I think Dave Portnoy would be impressed. Then came the Sicilian, and somehow they managed to crush that too. Thick, light, and airy on the inside with that perfectly crisp bottom that makes a great Sicilian so satisfying. What impressed me most was how well they executed two completely different styles of pizza. Plenty of places can make one good pie. Doing New Haven-style AND Sicilian this well? That's when you know the kitchen knows what it's doing. Great ingredients=Great pizza Five stars all the way!

Cool spot with a Manhattan vibe "behind" Main Street in Patchogue…read more The reason this is key is because, since they face out to the firehouse and residential areas, parking USUALLY isn't a problem. There's a small lot that's free and you can park on Jennings. (sorry residents). We went on NYE so had to park several blocks away. No biggie. The inside is dark and cool with a city-vibe. Ample bar space and 1-4 tops an some banquet seating that lets you look out over the street. We were greeted right away by what turned out to be our server and seated promptly by the windows (we had a reservation). Also greeted by a gentleman that we think might have been her dad. The young lady hustled all night and managed the crowd well. We never waited too long for her to check in on us and she was very helpful with selecting wine and clarifying menu items. That being said, THIS IS A SMALL PLATES JOINT. People expecting full-sized portions should adjust their expectations accordingly. We did, however, order the Trastavere seafood platter (medium) which came as a tower and seemed impressive. Two types of oysters (large and medium) were presented; briny and fresh and pretty damned tasty. There was also a ceviche and tuna tartare that was, unfortunately, a bit unremarkable, as was the shrimp cocktail (though the shrimps were pretty hefty). The American "black caviar" was a nice way to commemorate the meal. Nutty with a pop of salinity but maybe something you can skip. We meant to order the Carne e Formaggi but got the Gamberetto instead which was fine as it was pretty tasty nonetheless (made with shrimp but it almost tasted like smoked salmon). Virgola Manhattan was good but pretty standard. Follow-up drink of dirty Manhattan was blissfully salty and cold. But back to the menu: we are unsure if they have an actual kitchen back there which would also explain the small plates concept and oyster and chilled fish options. The bruschetta was tasty, as mentioned, but it seems like they cut and toasted the bread and topped it with the crudo. The other bruschetta options featured ingredients from other menu items that could be re-purposed for multiple dishes. Smart but expect this. We plan on returning and trying the charcuterie board (mix and match cheeses and meats) and some cocktails. Overall, a nice night out and a nice option for dining and drinking around Patchogue. Cheers!

Ooo thank you Yelp for helping me find this gem!…read more Small dark restaurant with limited tables and a long bar & stools and cool view of the wood-fired brick oven pizza. Everything was delicious and fresh, I only wished I lived close to this place because I would eat here all the time. Monday night dinner and only a few tables were filled which seemed strange to me since the food was A+, but the takeout was poppin. We started with 6 garlic knots. If you think you only need 6...you are wrong. You need 12, I'm serious! Such warm, crusty, garlicky goodness, they were gone in 60 seconds and we had to order more. - Caprese salad had perfectly ripe yellow and red tomato with a seriously gigantic ball of buffalo mozz - Caesar salad was a little too heavy on the dressing - fresh pasta so good! Papparadella with pesto and fresh mozz & rigatoni bolognese. Flavorful sauces! - Forresta pizza crust was so perfectly thin & crispy and the prosciutto was shaved thin and cooked crispy. Great combo with the arugula - sadly they were out of the tiramasu and sorbet so we tried a cannoli and it was very large filled with rich creamy ricotta and chocolate chips - thanks to a fellow yelper find...they have Mexican Coke! Small parking lot that seems to only go one way.

I ordered a simple cheeseburger with nothing other than the patty, cheese, and lettuce to wrap it in. Was also given a side salad, which I asked for just lettuce, nothing else. She ordered a cheeseburger cooked med/rare, with everything expected to come with it. The entire time we waited for our order to go, the owner was at the bar staring us down, and made us feel uncomfortable. We left as soon as our food came out, which was unusually quick. We left to go eat at the marina down the street. We opened the bags and saw that we didn't get what we ordered. My salad had crushed croutons mixed in with the lettuce (I'm gluten free for medical reasons) and I couldn't pick them out. Her burger was well done, no bun, and the food have her a stomachache. On top of that, they didn't give us any cutlery or napkins. Our food was given to us in black tied plastic bags, and we didn't check because we were ready to leave due to the passive aggressive hostility of the owner and the other customers eating by the bar. Our orders combined came out to $45, plus her tip. We ended up throwing out most of the food. This was my friend's first, and last time coming to Avino's, and this is my last time. Overpriced low quality food that the staff can't get right. Don't eat here.
