Always a fun atmosphere, food is fresh and delicious. The service is excellent, as is the hostess.

We went for Sunday brunch, service was excellent, food was flavorful and filling. Exceeded our expectations. Happy hour drinks were delightful. I will definitely recommend Snaps to my friends and family. read more

We came on a Friday before a concert at Jones Beach. We made a 5 o'clock reservation. The restaurant was empty, but began to fill up while we were eating. The food is the star here. My husband ordered from the prix fixe menu and I ordered one of their specials. The butter poached gnocchi was decadent. The sauce was creamy and delicious, although a tad on the salty side. His main course was shrimp scampi risotto. So glad he ordered it, because I got to taste it. It was really good. I could never order it because I would be full after a few bites. I ordered their salmon special. It was cooked perfectly. The vegetables were great, with chorizo pieces throughout. I ordered the romesco sauce on the side. The portion was quite large. Dessert was the Banana Foster sundae. Once again, we got to share. Highly recommend. My wine was good too. The service was fine, perhaps a little too laid back. We were told we didn't have a reservation. Maybe when we changed it to 5:00, from 4:45, it didn't go through. It didn't matter the restaurant was empty. We were also brought to a table that didn't have any silverware. No big deal, we took it from the table next to us. My fork was a bit bent. One again, I took it from another table. Never told us anything about the menus or happy hour. Heard other servers pointing things out and being upbeat. All in all, a pleasant and relaxing dinner. We will definitely be back in September! We have another concert. I recommend this restaurant to others going to Jones Beach concerts. Give yourself a little extra time so you can really enjoy your meal and not feel rushed. read more

The food was so good, the only language I spoke was mmmmmm. When I came here it was 4:00 right when they opened. No one was here and the service was excellent I got the Thursday special a Burger with truffle fries. Definitely coming back read more

Burgers are great here as well as appetizer choices. Service was a little slow but we went during holiday week and perhaps they were understaffed. The vibe is chill and decorative for the holidays. Happy they take reservations. read more

my wife had southern fried chicken, it was way over done. the coating was unedable. I had beef Wellington. it to was over done. I have been going to Snaps for more the 20 years. what changed? read more

The food was great. The service was very good. Very cozy atmosphere. They catered to kids so it's kids friendly. The five-dollar burgers were very good for Thursday night. steak sandwich was fantastic. Peppermint espresso Martini was delicious. The drink menu was festive and creative. The only thing I would change was they need some padding on their benches seats and better tablecloth. read more

Snaps American Bistro - Peppermint expresso martini - New American Near Me - Wantagh, New York

SO good! My husband is 100% vegetarian whereas I'm only about 90%, which is how I'm able to give this place 5 stars. Otherwise there aren't too many vegetarian options here but the chicken and burgers are soooo good. Service is always great and they have reservations! I love that Snaps is a Wantagh staple and hope they stay around for many years to come read more

A little noisy but good was great! Service and wait staff always so nice and the barmaid made me a great espresso martini!

Great service and diverse menu with something for everyone. It was $5 burger night and it was a stand out! Also some nice martinis on special. Chicken Milanese was a solid choice- large enough to share. Steak sandwich was good but cooked a bit inconsistent. Truffle fries were priced high at $10 for a smaller side. But they were loved by everyone. Kinda loud. Kinda rowdy. But also fun. read more

Snaps American Bistro - Crispy Chicken Teriyaki Wontons /thai Vinaigrette/soba Noodle and octopus - New American Near Me - Wantagh, New York

Easy 5 stars! We stopped in just randomly this afternoon for an early dinner and a cold drink or two. Perfect choice. The Burrito Bowls were spectacular, lots of fresh chicken, perfectly spiced, and large portions. Served inside a taco shell in a bowl. Delicious. And the warm chocolate cake with gelato was a tasty dessert alongside a hot black coffee. Nice ambiance, Excellent service. We will return!! read more

Everything was delicious! The coconut martinis are absolutely fantastic! Our server was attentive!

Great food and service! Comfortable and welcoming. Will definitely be back! Parking can be a little tight but you can find parking.

Nothing here to impress me. The food was average, the staff was ok. The restaurant was clean and the food came out in a decent amount of time. read more

Bustling! Good variety on menu, friendly, nice specials! Arrive early, then relax and enjoy! Great for families/groups and smaller parties. Went on a local's recommendation and were pleased. read more

Great ambience and great food food. Everyone is always very nice and welcoming. We go at least 3 times a month.

Awesome pork chop burgers salad. Really good food. Great service. Nice ambiance. A must try.

Service was horrible. Waited 1 hour and 40 minutes to get 5 sodas and 2 appetizers. He just kept telling us that they were plating our food. It was very busy and crowded people were getting served way before us and every time we asked, I was coming out. We finally left and just paid for what we ordered. never going back there again, unfortunately because the food looked really good. read more

Snaps is consistently a solid dinner spot. I've been coming here for years and never had a bad meal. They also still offer the $7 burger special, which is nice. Some of our favorites are the braised short rib blue cheese quesadilla, tuna tartar, steak sandwich, and basically any burger. Service is also very good. We've sat at the bar the past two times, and the bartender is always nice and helpful. Place isn't small but isn't big, so if you're looking to go with a party larger than 2, I'd make a reservation. Enjoy. read more

We had the $46 3 course meal which includes appetizers, main & dessert. The choices for all 3 were varied enough. We got the chopped salad which was fresh and tasty. Mains we chose was chicken milanese. The cutlet was thin, crispy and had arugula salad on top. For dessert, we both got bananas foster sundae which was excellent. I am so glad we finally found this place and will return. the only negative is 4% credit card charge so bring cash to save. Unfortunately most restaurants are adding this surcharge these days. read more

Wonderful dinner - delicious - excellent choices, friendly staff, and prices were very fair.

I had made a reservation a few weeks ago to get together with a few girlfriends for a nice brunch. When we arrived we were informed that the night before they had changed their menu and were no longer offering brunch. However, they did the right thing without our asking - - they offered us the brunch menu as an option in addition to their full menu. We were all very appreciative and several of us did order from the brunch menu. Everything we ordered -- appetizers, main meal, dessert -- was delicious and beautifully presented; portions were ample. Service was perfect - - not intrusive but attentive. It was a great experience, and I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Best steak sandwich I ever had. Omg so tender & gooooood. Great place, great food & drinks!

Went with my daughter just for a quick burger and a drink or two it was really good he puts out a good product every time I've eaten there service is very good place is very clean read more

I'm very disappointed with how Snaps treats their own gift cards. I recently used a gift card and was surprised when they processed it as a credit card instead of cash,as most places do. I brought this up with the staff and they said that is there policy and can't do anything about it, Running a gift certificate as a credit card adds an additional fee on top of the final bill.It's frustrating to be charge extra just for redeeming something that already paid for. This created an unnecessary issue at the checkout and left a bad impression at the end of the meal. I would think twice before buying or using a gift certificate here read more

We always enjoy coming here! The food is great. I am happy to see them doing well all these years.

Very nice inside, kind of dim lighting which I like, especially for a date night. Menu is good too and haven't been disappointed with food there either. Wait staff is alway nice and you can make reservations, which is great. Good pick on the south shore. read more

Had a good martini and chicken Milanese which was delicious. But started with seared tuna as an appie which was fantastic. Service was polite and professional. read more

Good food, good service, lively ambiance! Always a reliable and friendly bistro!! We love coming here!

We were there on a Thursday night which is a $5 burger night. It was jamming busy at 6:00 but we sat right away with our reservations. The wing app only comes with 5 wings and the seasoning is overpowering with salt/bbq flavor. Truffle fries for $10 is also a small portion and very salty. The snap burger was excellent!! Perfectly cooked and delicious! We never saw our waitress after she took our first drink & app order till the bill was served. I went to the bar after we finished our apps looking for our drinks as they never came. The bartender said she would send them over. Then when we wanted to order and get more food and drinks, we couldn't figure out if anyone was serving us. Finally a different waitress came and asked us if anyone took our order. She took our order and got us more drinks. When we wanted the check, we had to stand by the table when finally the original waitress came by to give us a check. We tipped 20% because we chalked it up to maybe she was a new waitress and she was in the weeds. Also, it was very loud in there. Maybe some half walls with baffles on it would help the noise. I would return to give it another try because the burger was that good!! read more

Chicken Milanese possibly one of the best I ever had. Overall ambiance okay and parking not ideal but overall experience was family friendly especially on discount burger Thursday. Will definitely visit again and a solid local restaurant for a quick bite. read more

Was looking for something to eat and stumbled upon this place and I am glad I did. I was able to make a reservation through Yelp which was nice and easy. When we arrived we were seated immediately. The place was a good size with plenty of seating and a bar top option as well. We were given water right away and our table cloth was paper, which was great for a few rounds of tic tak toe, which I can appreciate. Our waitress was pleasant and told us the specials, I had my eyes set on the crispy chicken teriyaki wontons for an appetizer and the chicken Milanese for dinner, my wife opted for the short rib Wellington. I wish I could say how good the wontons were because the waitress never put in my order for it much to my dismay, however, after we pointed out the mistake she offered to have it made but with the main course already out I sadly declined and felt defeated. The chicken Milanese was great, not too heavy or oily and thin and crispy on the outside and the salad mixed with with the chicken. The short rib Wellington was amazing; the side mixed perfectly, my only complaint was my partner only offered one bite as the food was gone in the blink of an eye. All in all we will definitely be back, will make another attempt at the wontons and make sure to double check the order. read more

Always a good meal at Snaps. Friendly service. Really good drinks. Daily specials. Never disappoints.

Went with two friends for a nice meal - the place was super busy on a Tuesday night, I later found out it was because of Taco Tuesday. Pros: Food: I had Chicken Milanese and it was absolutely delicious. My friend had it as well and agreed. We shared the Bananas Foster sundae for dessert and that was delicious. Drinks: We had cabernet and coconut martinis which were delicious. Cons: Service: I kind of expected slow service after reading it in many reviews. We sat down at 6:25 and our drink order wasn't taken until 6:40 - so we missed happy hour. When we got the bill we asked about the prices, and he said the computer changes the prices based on the time, and there was nothing he could do about it. That kind of sucked considering the Martinis were $15 each! Plus he didn't really seem to care. Parking: It's a small parking lot and it was almost full when i got there at 6:15 - i got one of the last tiny spots and there were many cars coming in after me circling around. I think there are more spots around the back though. 4% Credit Card Charge - this sucks but it seems like it's becoming unavoidable these days. Overall I'd go there again, pay cash and hope for a different waiter. But the food was great and it's definitely family friendly. read more

Started with Happy Hour $7 pineapple martini and went for the prix fixe menu. Winter buratta was nice with plenty of flavor from the pesto and peppers to balance the creaminess of the cheese. Pork chop was phenomenal. Cooked to perfection, so juicy and flavorful. Amazing dinner read more

Visited on a Tuesday and sat at the small 8-seat bar with my wife. The hanging lights added a nice ambiance. Taco Tuesday deals included margaritas, which were premade and heavy on sour mix--not my taste. I ordered the $45 three-course deal (wontons, gnocchi, blueberry cheesecake); wontons were well-presented, but the others disappointed. My wife enjoyed her burrata and tuna sashimi, both reasonably portioned. Service was slow--confirmed by a couple nearby who ordered four drinks at once due to delays. Wine prices were steep, with the cheapest bottle (Salmon Creek) at $40+. With only four staff for the entire restaurant, service felt scattered. Food, drinks, and service fell short for the price. Better options nearby; we won't return. read more
