It takes a lot to impress me these days...Rockefellers checked all the boxes. The food, ambiance,…read moreservice, drinks, all hit the spot!! Our server, Nicole, was seriously top notch. She took care of the entire floor on a busy Saturday night and didn't skip a beat! She was so attentive and wonderful. We had the Thai chili meatballs, trio dip and crispy tuna. All were seriously incredible. I don't even like seafood and this tuna dish was so fresh and delicious! We ended off the night with a brownie sundae and espresso martinis and they were perfect. The live music really made the night memorable and I can't wait to come back! 5/5 on all aspects!

Stayed at a hotel nearby for the weekend and saw this place with great Yelp reviews. The place was…read morecute with plenty of seating at the bar, tables and TV's along with a small stage and a live musician on a Friday night. The place was freezing with the AC on full blast and right above us, another table that sat a few tables away was also complaining about how cold it was. We ordered the kids Mac and cheese and chicken fingers with fries. Unfortunately they brought out a burger instead of my daughter's chicken fingers along with my other child's Mac and cheese and we told them it was wrong. My poor child was starving while everyone else's food came out already and she had to wait for hers but luckily we had some fries for her from our dish to share. I got a French onion soup and you can see it was a bit burnt on top. The soup was too salty and I couldn't take more than 3 sips. My husband enjoyed his chicken sandwich and I liked my cobb salad. My youngest enjoyed her Mac and cheese.

We made reservations for our anniversary on a whim and I am so glad we did. This is a small hidden…read moreaway gem. I am so glad that we finally got to try it! The food was delicious. First you are served garlic bread with dipping sauces which the bread bey itself is delicious but add in the dipping sauces and it's insane!! i wish there were more than 4 pieces but given the portion sizes of the rest of our meal, I'm glad there wasn't more. For appetizers we had the fried calamari. I am not a huge calamari eater, but I will say it was fresh and not rubbery. The marinara sauce was very complimentary to the calamari without being overwhelming. For entrees we both had the rib eye steaks. My husband had the garlic mashed potatoes and I had the roasted both were excellent potato choices. The steak was seasoned perfectly. It was tender and cooked perfectly. The steaks were so large that neither of us finished ours. I also really enjoyed adding the dipping sauces from the breads to my steak. It was awesome with our without it but loved the dipping sauces! My only suggestion was I would appreciate my water glass being checked on and not having to ask for it to be refilled. Other than that service was attentive without being intrusive. We cannot wait to go back!!

My husband and I went to The Holstein Grill around 4:30 PM on a Sunday without a reservation and we…read morewere met cordially by the hostess who, fortunately for us, found us a table for two. We started out by sharing the fried calamari appetizer which was light and crispy on the outside and tender and tasty on the inside. The house made marinara sauce was a welcome addition. Our Caesar salads were fresh and flavorful. I particularly liked the shaved parmigiana cheese on top. For our entrees, I had the rack of lamb, cooked just the way I asked for it, medium. I loved the au jus which added an another dimension to the flavor. The lamb was tender and tasty. My husband had the 12 once filet mignon rare. He was so pleased that it was served exactly as he asked for it. He raved that the filet was absolutely PERFECT! It was so tender that it practically melted in his mouth. He truly enjoyed every bite. Our waitress was attentive without being overbearing. The ambiance was dark and quiet. We both agree that we can't wait to return to The Holstein Grill Steak House for another meal. This time we'll have to save room for dessert.

I really tried to give this burger spot a fair chance, even though the reviews weren't great, I…read morewanted to try it for myself. I'm not someone who enjoys leaving negative reviews, but unfortunately there's a reason the ratings aren't high. When you walk in, the servers are right there, but they look at you and don't say anything. It's awkward from the start. I'm not sure if it's a language barrier or just the way things are run, but it makes the whole experience confusing. They have iPads for ordering, but there are no signs or directions anywhere telling you that's what you're supposed to do. So when someone finally acknowledged me, I started to order at the counter, and the guy told me to order on the iPad instead. I tried, but I couldn't make the modifications I wanted, and when I attempted to explain that, communication became really difficult. He eventually had to call someone else over to help. Trust me, I have a lot of patience for language barriers, but when there's attitude involved, the sympathy goes out the window. It just makes everything more frustrating than it needs to be. Now, the food itself? Actually very good. I was excited to try the Impossible chopped cheese because I've heard great things from other locations, and it did not disappoint. It was really delicious, just a little pricey, especially when you compare it to a regular chopped cheese from a bodega for half the cost. My husband got the chicken tenders, and he said they were also very good. So here's the bottom line: the food is solid, but the service is extremely off-putting. We even tried giving them a second chance, and the experience was basically the same. I'd consider ordering online, but the prices on their website are literally double, and when my husband pointed it out, they argued with him. All in all, the food alone is good enough that I want to like this place, but I'm not sure I'd go back. Try at your own risk, LOL.

Awesome breakfast!…read more I was hesitant to try this for breakfast but it's attached to the hotel so the convenience was there. It turned out to be a great decision because the breakfast was great! Love that they open super early so if you want to slip down in your pjs I'm sure you could. We went around 7am both days and it was pretty empty. - if you're a guest of Holiday Inn Islip, you can add breakfast (look at menu pricing to see if optimal) - Limited breakfast options but all the favs! - kids eat free - they have sausage patty's! So good! - unlimited coffee in a carafe Everything tasted fresh and made to order plus cheaper than diners! Great deal especially if you're a guest at the hotel. Highly recommend!

We got to our seats and were blessed with an amazing server tonight, Lindsey!!!! Lindsey was awesome and lots of fun as we were deciding on what to order. Tonight I decided to go with the NY Strip steak at $32.99 +/- the steak was cooked perfectly rate and was delicious. I got this with a side of pasta too. (Don't ask for extra $auce. Get the dollar sign, they charge for that, only negative) We also had a beautiful and delicious plate of nachos. My mother in law got the delicious and awesome lobster ravioli!!!!

Off the bat, I won't lie I got some "Applebee's" type feelings from the place, but I wasn't going to pass judgment on a place simply by how it looks, my mother taught me better! But granted you could probably argue that for a lot of American bistro style restaurants that try to have that hometown local feel to it with all the stuff hanging on the walls. Staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, our server especially, Alexa, really felt like she was going out her way to check in on us and how everything was which did feel nice. For food we started with the spinach artichoke dip, a classic and this one was just as good as I've had anywhere, but most importantly they give you plenty of chips! For entrees, I went with the Philly cheesesteak and my girlfriend went with the brisket French dip with mozzarella cheese. Both were delicious but I think my girlfriend beat me this time with her choice! The choice of brisket over a typical roast beef is an interesting one for a French dip, but I do love a good brisket and this one was certainly tasty. The Philly wasn't you're traditional cheesesteak either, but it scratched my itch (but do be warned that thing comes out HOT!). Both came with a deceivingly large basket of fries that were fresh and crispy and a nice salty to compliment to our sandwiches. I really enjoyed trying this one and they had a bunch of interesting specials that I contemplated trying too, which makes me eager to come back again and see what other new tasty options they might have in store!

However, there's one old bartender that wears glasses that always gives me and my party an attitude when I go in there to the point where I don't want to dine there and stopped recommending it to people!

The ambience is great when you don't have somebody with a shitty attitude there ruining the experience that I'm paying good money for. I always tip well so I guess she just doesn't like me and scared away one of your longtime patrons. 4/5 food, service overall experience -1 star for nasty/ rude glasses lady
