Thank you guys again for making our birthday girl's night a night to remember! Anyone who needs a party to host, grub on food, great happy hour, or dance the night away this place is a must! I will definitely be coming back to groove baby

The food at headliners is good I don't drink so when I go to bars I usually just eat the food, have a water or have an OJ & seltzer. I had vegetarian empanadas, mozarella sticks, nachos and other stuff I can't remember. i didn't eat everything at once this was over an assortment of times. I liked everything I had. It's a fun experience at headliners. Even though I'm not sure if I'll be back on a Sunday night for karaoke it's a fun time go check it out! Maybe I'll be there here and there.

Foundry Tavern in Hicksville was a HUGE surprise for me. I knew the place had been completely…read morerenovated, but I honestly wasn't expecting the food to be as good as it was. First off, the inside is beautiful. They did an incredible job with the renovation, and I loved all the little details, especially the custom 300-pound manhole covers they're using as tables around the bar. Even better, everyone working there was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Now the food! We started with the Baked Clams, and these were legit. You could've served them to me at an Italian restaurant and I wouldn't have questioned it. The Nonna's Ribs were probably one of the biggest surprises--slow-braised pork ribs with cherry peppers and finished on the grill. Fall-off-the-bone tender, tons of flavor, and I loved that they weren't just drenched in BBQ sauce. The Firebird crispy chicken sandwich was fantastic, and the Steakhouse Sandwich with sliced NY strip, mushrooms, provolone, crispy onions and horseradish aioli was also very well done. But that Manhole Burger deserves some special attention. Beef, American cheese, caramelized onions and dijonnaise on brioche. Simple combination, executed REALLY well. This was an outstanding burger and absolutely something I'd order again. And I can't leave out the fries. They're hand-cut in house, super thin and crispy, and exactly how I like my fries. Think that addictive thin fast-food style, except made fresh and much better quality. If you remember this location from its previous ownership, give it another shot. This is a completely different experience. Beautiful restaurant, genuinely friendly staff and food that exceeded my expectations. Foundry Tavern is a Hicksville hidden gem that deserves more attention--especially for lunch. I'll definitely be back.

Went to the Foundry Friday night…read more Off path location and not great parking. We had no reservations so we ended up sitting in the outside area. Cute little spot. Heard the guy next to us order a French dip and the waiter said great, we have only 2 left. So when he came to us I ordered and he said great timing it's the last one. Took 45 minutes to get our strawberry salad which was delicious. Another 3o minutes go by (and the guy next to me who ordered the other French dip had already finished and left) So the strawberry waiter, after more than 1.15hr walk over and says "hey, we ran out of the French so I ordered you the steak sandwich. Huh? 1 hour and fifteen min later you ran out and the other guy already ate and left? I said great, but I'm not paying for it. 10 min later the owner came out. He could not have been a friendlier, responsible and all around nice person. It wasn't that he not only covered my meal but the table but it was the way he handled it. Owning a restaurant is not easy and problems happen. Food - 8/10 Prices 9/10 Place 8/10 I would not only recommend this place but they have absolutely earned my business. I obviously can't give a 5 because of the incident but I will change this to a 5 when I go back and get the service I have a feeling I'll receive. This owner deserves the business because he knows how to run a business. Money follows the people not the other way around.

Arriving, the space is bright and airy. At the table there was a lovely potted plant with our reservation name which we were able to take home with us. Such a nice touch. The trivia was really fun and something different to do. We started off with the maple bacon donut holes for the table. They came out piping hot and had the perfect donut texture. They were so good. They have a lot of cocktails and cocktails to choose from. I opted for the Spritz which was a light Aperol Spritz and it was perfect for brunch. The Paloma was also quite good. I had the Tap Stack which was pancakes layered with bacon and topped with a corn flake crusted chicken cutlet. The portion was large and hearty. The chicken was so crunchy and yummy. The bacon was perfectly cooked. The pancakes were a bit on the tough and dry side. The breakfast burrito, BEC and brunch burger were all good and everyone enjoyed their meals. Mother's Day is a day I always avoided eating out on, but Taproom changed my mind about going out on Mother's Day could actually be enjoyable!

As I had not known him personally and only had stopped in once before, taken in by the warmth and caring of the staff there, thinking I might have found a place that felt like home, I came today. I expect he must have been very loving, by the caring people I met today. I felt the presence of his spirit upon my visit. I told Renee' that change happens whether we want or expect it or not. The Gentry is closed. I am sad as what ever takes the place will not have the same comradery that I felt there ever so briefly. I wish the staff well in there future endeavors and Daisy and I will miss them. Blessings to the spirit of Kevin Woods.

As I've been exploring breweries around Long Island, Barnshed has been on my list for a while…read morethanks especially to fellow Yelper Josh G. and others whose reviews I trust wholeheartedly. Without a doubt, I was very happy I made the decision to visit this brewery with some fellow amigos, two of whom are new to the brewery world. Although we nearly missed the turn off route 107 (it's not the easiest place to find), it was well worth the effort to visit this small yet spirited brewery. Seeing the option for a flight of 4 for $9, the four of us each decided on this option (or else, why pay a visit here at all?). I opted for the Die Schuene Hefe (6.4% ABV), State 11 IPA (6.9% ABV), Propaganda Porter (6.4% ABV), and Chocolate Oatmeal Stout (6.7% ABV). My beer preferences generally lean toward the stouts, brown ales and low-IBU IPAs (have not yet acquired that palette for the super bitter). With that kind of palette, it should come as no surprise that I loved the Propaganda Porter and Chocolate Oats Stout, both of which offered a sweet, rich flavor, with Propaganda leaning more towards a vanilla flavor and Chocolate leaning towards a (wait for it) chocolate/coffee taste. Die Schuene Hefe was my next favorite in line, offering a very pleasant body of flavor, and State 11 IPA was still very enjoyable (though on the more bitter end for me). My friends sampled a variety of other beers, and altogether we hit every beer on the menu (sans Pineapple Express, which I'd love to try next time). My one friend who enjoys IPAs really loved the Mental Toughness and also enjoyed the Barn Double IPA (though admitted it was on the bitter end for those like myself who do not venture that far on the bitter scale). My other friend with a similar palette to mine really loved the 135 Pale Ale (he went "wow!" from the first sip), and our last comrade most enjoyed the Barnshed Cider (he does enjoy those ciders). Aside from the beer itself, what I really enjoyed about this place was the spirit and heart of it. It's small and scrappy but the owners definitely put a lot into it (it's easy to tell). The beer tasted incredibly fresh and was served with complimentary Utz's pretzels and even some mints before hitting the road. In pondering this brewery, I was on the fence between 4 and 5 stars. In the end, I opted for 5 stars because of my friends. The two newbies fell in love with breweries thanks to this place and are now wanting to explore even more breweries on Long Island (I'm sure I'll be getting texts every weekend now). One friend called it "the freshest beer I've ever tasted". Thanks to the owners for putting so much heart into this place. I cannot wait to return!

The vibe is always fun, the drinks are consistently amazing, and the service is truly top notch. Marcella is wonderful, and every person on the staff always makes you feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. JoJo deserves a special mention because he is truly one of the most humble and gracious owners you could ever meet. You can tell how much pride and heart he puts into this place, and that energy carries through the entire staff. Now the food. The special steak sandwich just hits differently, especially with the cheese fries. The wings are an absolute must. I always get them extra wet, well done, and crispy, and they come out with the perfect flavor every single time. The Mexican street corn dip is incredible, the special egg rolls are always worth ordering, and honestly, everything on the menu from A to Z delivers. Even trivia night is such a great time. This is the kind of neighborhood place you keep returning to because the food never misses, the atmosphere always feels right, and the people make it feel like home. Thank you to Marcella, JoJo, and the entire team for always providing such great food, drinks, hospitality, and memories. You are all deeply appreciated!
