Finally tried Rockwell's bar and grill tonight. Local spot and was packed on a Saturday night. The owner/manager was super friendly and accommodating and the southwest egg rolls were fresh and delicious. Those are all of the positives. Onto the negatives.... The waitress was absolutely horrific. It took 25-30 minutes for her to even realize we were there. You'd think after that mistake she'd be more attentive.... Nope. The table next to us was also getting a little irritated. I ordered the special spicy rigatoni and chicken cutlet. The sauce was very good and mildly spicy but the chicken was tough and not good. Actually tasted old. My husband had the skirt steak and said it was a bit fatty and just OK. Ordered a second margarita but it never came... they didn't charge for it but still annoying. It was pretty busy in there but by the time we left it emptied out. They charge 4% fee if you use a credit card which I found a bit steep compared to other establishments. All in all, I'd try them again for just drinks and apps and maybe check out the bar area. The outside looks super nice to enjoy weather depending. They open at 10am and happy hour is 10am-5pm.

It is Sunday, and what better way to spend it than hanging out with friends at a local pub to catch the NFL game? The place I chose was Rockwell's Bar & Grill, a spot that offers the classic Long Island bar and grill vibe, friendly, casual, and lively, perfect for watching sports. While it is not exactly right around the corner, it was conveniently on my way back home after a day out on the eastern Long Island fork. Rockwell's atmosphere really hits the mark; it is the kind of place where you feel at ease, surrounded by sports fans and the buzz of the game. They also have a daily Happy Hour with 2-for-1 deals on draft beers, wine, and house mixed drinks, which works for me. The menu is full of classic American comfort food, burgers, crispy wings, and their popular steak sandwich. They also serve appetizers, salads, and a variety of entrees to satisfy different cravings. For our meal, we ordered the chicken and shrimp fajitas--they were delicious. Our server was outstanding, attentive, and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. Plus, he kept us updated on the game and other sports highlights, which is a rarity these days. One thing to note, though, is their satellite dish program. We could not get some of the games we wanted to watch that were not on the usual local channels, so the selection was a bit limited. Still, the overall experience was fantastic way to unwind and enjoy Sunday football with good food, drinks, and company.

Rockwell's is your classic Long Island bar and grill. Great for watching sports and chowing down with the boys. Staff and service is top notch. Lovely personalities filled with tender love and care. It was Black Friday and not too packed at 2:30pm. I can hear my cousins discuss NFL sports betting. What a wonderful afternoon. They won their bets! My Philly cheesesteak hero paired with the Sierra Nevada Hazy IPAs were to live for! All-in-all gotta give this joint a solid 4-star in my books. It's a wrap. Put a bow on it.

This place is such a fun and positive atmosphere. The food is delicious but I'd come back just to support these people. It's so inviting and the people (workers and loyal customers) make it feel like home. This didn't even feel like Long Island. People were so supportive and made it their mission to make you feel like you belonged. Not sure I was at a restaurant or a support group. I met the very personable owner, Tom sr., his lovely "best friend" (his wife Donna), very personable and handsome young son Tom who was bartending, Cesar the friendly busser, Shannon the sweetest waitress and Joann the lovely hostess. This family owned business is an example of what we need in this world. When Joann (a loyal customer) lost her husband in 2020, Tom offered her a hostess position to get her out of the house and start living again. She told me how grateful and how amazing it is to work for the family. The love between Tom and Donna radiates a contagious positive energy throughout the room. Come to Rockwell's to lift your spirits

Side salad
Gloria Z.

Think saloon instead of pub. Definitely a country western vibe going on, with songs like All My Exes Live in Texas and artists like Hank Williams Jr playing. Full size bar with separate dining room. Comfortable seating. My husband ordered the starter portion of Texas Baby Back Ribs. Generous portion and with an added cup of soup it made a meal. I tasted these and immediately wished I had ordered them. Nice and tender, dry rubbed, topped with sautéed onions that made it a perfect dish which I would recommend and order again. I had the flat iron steak which was cooked perfectly to requested rare but unfortunately came out cold. Meat and green beans both cold. Waitress was so professional in handling it, apologized profusely and had another plate made PDQ. The wait staff were very polite and prompt, much better than you tend to expect in - well, a saloon. I was also pleased that there were low carb options to substitute for potatoes. My side salad had great fresh mixed greens and julienned carrots but the tomato and cucumber were a bit overly refrigerated for my liking. Overall good and would return, especially for those ribs.

Lava cake
Adriana P.

This place pulls off the bar/restaurant balance perfectly. The service is incredibly fast for drinks, food, and dessert - and it's a Saturday night! The staff is friendly and efficient. I'm really impressed with the speed of service - can you tell? The French onion soup was delicious and flavorful. The wings were perfectly crispy, but we would have liked a traditional buffalo sauce for the medium heat. It was a little sweet. The pastrami sandwich and chicken parm were done just right. I ordered the steak sandwich and was disappointed that the meat was tough. No worries - next time I'll try something else. We finished with a lava cake which was more like a brownie than lava cake but still tasty.

Fantastic local Irish Pub offering outstanding customer service along with delicious food dishes at reasonable prices.

All dessert's are homemade and Guinness Brownie served with soft serve ice cream. Service is outstanding as well, shout out to Kolleen our waitress absolutely fantastic. Clean and decorated still for Christmas, magical night watching snow falling out the windows and the Christmas lights on and tree lit. Highly recommend this outstanding Irish Pub and restaurant where you can find Guinness and Harp on tap to fill your pints.

This place isn't trying for polished restaurant experience, and honestly, that's kinda part of its charm. It feels like the kind of spot where the bar comes first and the kitchen supports it if this makes sense. The atmosphere is a neighborhood hangout feel. You can tell it's a local spot--people walking in were greeted by name, and there's a familiar, lived-in vibe that makes it feel welcoming if you're a regular, and easy enough to settle into if you're not. Food-wise, the corned beef on both the Gaiety and the Finnegan's Wake sandwiches stood out--tender, flavorful, and generous. Both sandwiches came with fries, and while I appreciate skin-on fries, these leaned a bit soggy rather than crispy. Overall, this is a solid spot if you go in with the right expectations. It's less of a destination restaurant and more of a go-to pub where you can grab a drink, and enjoy pub food. If you're looking for a lively, casual bar with good portions and a strong local following, it delivers--even if not everything on the plate is perfect. I think I'd like to make an update review after trying a few more dishes. At a glance, 3.5 with overall good experience.

I've been here on numerous occasions hoping that maybe this would finally be the visit where everything clicked. Unfortunately, it just hasn't happened. My experiences have been so-so, and more often than not they've been slightly disappointing. My biggest complaint has always been the food. My take has been it's been bland or uninspired. The French onion soup was just ok, and seemed like no effort putting this together. No provolone cheese option when I've ordered which is crazy. The Caesar salad tasted diluted, with lettuce that seemed waterlogged rather than crisp and fresh. Just overall underwhelming. The food is not necessarily terrible, but just mediocre and forgettable. Portion size is another problem. For what you're paying, the plates often feel surprisingly small. One example of this was the "Big C Burger," which was honestly a huge letdown. With a name like that you'd expect something substantial. Instead, the burger was tiny--maybe 4-5 ounces at most. At first glance you could barely even see the meat because the bun swallowed it. I ordered it medium and it came out completely overcooked, cooked to death really. The bun didn't help either--dense, dry, and overpowering the already small patty. The whole thing just felt poorly executed. Even the little details were off. I asked for olive oil on the side for a salad and what came out was clearly some generic vegetable oil. It felt like a lazy substitution, the kind of thing that makes you question how much care is going into the kitchen overall. To be fair, the one thing Faraday's consistently gets right is the atmosphere. The restaurant is has a cozy charming space with a warm pub feel. The indoor dining area although small has character and a comfortable vibe. The outdoor area is really nice too, and perfect for setting for a nice meal on a comfortable day. Service is good. I've not had any issues with any servers ever being inattentive. Occasionally some order mixups but quickly rectified. Unfortunately, that inviting setting hasn't translated to memorable meals. After several attempts over the years, Faraday's has remained one of those places that seems like it should be good--but for me, it just never quite hits.
