    GGS Pork
    Meri L.

    Came here with a dear friend to catch up and have a bite to eat. Service was atrocious. It took a very long time for someone to come over to us to take our order after we sat down. We started with some apps. Wednesday is bogo on apps. When we went to order drinks our waiter told us they were out of Pinot Grigio. We ordered our apps; spinach dip and everything pretzel. While we were in the middle of eating, our waiter said he was leaving and someone else would be taking care of us. Okay, no big deal..we came in the middle of the lunch/dinner turnover. Well...nobody ever came and we wanted to order meatballs after we finished our apps. I saw a server at another table and called him over. We told him we wanted to order some more food. He asked if we closed out our check. We told him no and explained that our waiter had left for the day. He told us there was miscommunication. What?! Anyway, we ordered our meatballs and they came out within 5 minutes. On to the food... The spinach dip was good. It came with crisp bread. Flavors were on point. Giant pretzel was good too. It came with 3 different dips...queso, mustard and scallion cream cheese. I ordered GGS pork meat balls and my friend ordered the classic meatballs. The pork meatballs had great flavor...there was a slight kick but not overwhelming. My friend enjoyed the classic meatballs. Food was tasty, but service was terrible.

    Food is pricy and just Meh. Nice looking place and got seated immediately on a Saturday night, it wasn't really busy in there but we were disappointed in the food.

    Lobster sliders (minus one cause I ate it)

    Walked around Patchogue and ended up here as we knew the place and was a long time since we last were here. My husband and I made the perfect choice! We shared the Lobby Pot Skins which looked different, he had the Classic and I had the Lobster Sliders. It was all delicious. It also wasn't too crowded as we got there at a decent hour, which was nice. Our waitress was excellent, very attentive and checked on us to make sure if we wanted anything or not. The ambiance was perfect not too bright or too dark. I would definitely come back again.

    Scampi Wings

    Food is very good, some hidden gems like the scampi wings people seem to miss. Reasonable prices. Employees are nice, engaging, definitely a place to be a regular at. Friday and Saturday night, it's the place to be for socializing.

    Crispy Burrata

    We went on a Saturday around 5pm, no wait and we were seated immediately. They sat us in the back room which was nicely decorated and tables spaced well. We ordered the Crispy Burrata which was absolutely delicious, fried perfectly and the pesto underneath takes it over the top. We also ordered the chopped cheese, lobster roll sliders, and the sampler of the day. For dessert we had the peanut butter cup explosion thingy. Everything was exceptional. Will definitely return to try everything else.

    Good vibe, good drinks, good for. Coming for year. Try the weekend brunch. And bottomless drink.

    There's TOM in the background - he's so awesome!

    So we found ourselves in Patchogue on a Sunday afternoon in early spring ... we walked a bit on the main street area looking for a spot to hang out, have a beer or two and maybe grab a bite. That Meetball Place caught our eye -- and who doesn't love a MEATBALL, right?! Well we had such a great time and made the right pick - highly recommend to others. Thanks to our great bartender - funny, personable, attentive & great.... and SHOUT OUT to Chef TOM FAZIO - you're the best. We couldn't figure out what to order - Tom says, "I got this" - and it did not disappoint. Awesome selections and we all enjoyed. We will be back - thanks again.

    Place was a nice atmosphere. Went on Sunday and was the only place on the strip open before 1130 with no wait so we just happened to check it out. Food was pretty good. Service was great. They played the football game. Didn't try the drinks unfortunately but the entire vibe was nice.

    Bottomless mimosas that were truly bottomless.
    Joseph C.

    My wife and I stopped in here for Sunday brunch, not knowing what to expect. It wasn't packed when we got there, but we took our time and enjoyed the bottomless mimosas, so by the time we left it got pretty packed out. Good ambience, extremely attentive staff. Our server, Kayla was great. She made sure our mimosas were topped off and was attentive the whole time despite the influx of diners. The executive chef, Tom, also stopped by our table to see how everything was, and offered us a shot after we complemented the service. It's the little gestures that go a long way. The food was very good. I had the Hangover Potatoes and my wife had the Frittata. My only critique is the poached eggs that came with my potatoes were slightly overcooked, but it was good nonetheless. I'd recommend this spot for brunch that's easy on the wallet.

    Came here on a Saturday night for a private dinner party followed by some drinks at the bar. Off…read morethe get go, customer service was great and offered a coat check free of charge for my jacket and umbrella since it was raining, definitely helped make it feel just a touch more upscale than your usual restaurant. Our wait staff was nothing but kind and patient with our moderately large party and checked up on us without being overbearing. Ambiance is very cool, and definitely leans into its classic and nostalgic feel of its name, but not in a campy way. If you bring a date here, they would be impressed by the nice tile and wooden features alone, but it's the food that is really going to blow them away, but we will get to that next. The menu and cocktails do rotate seasonally a bit, so your experience may vary on availability for some items, but if you come back often enough (and spoiler, you will want to), you'll see them comeback! We started with Caesar salad, calamari, and Korean fried wings with the easy standout being the fried wings, a bit spicy but delicious but buyer beware they are messy (don't worry though, they give you moist towelettes to clean yourself off), calamari was cooked exactly how it needed to be and not rubbery, and the Caesar salad was as good as I've had it anywhere (although there's was made with tahini, giving it a little sesame flair). For mains, we had a pesto pasta, steak frites with an au poivre sauce, with sides of jersey asparagus and mashed potatoes. Steak was cooked just right and I'd dip almost anything in that sauce, and the pesto pasta was a nice lighter and herby balance to the meal. Fries were perfectly crisp shoestring style and the other end of the potato spectrum was the delightfully smooth mashed potatoes and gravy. Asparagus has always been my favorite green, and adding a cream sauce with bacon only makes this version of it that much more enticing. Capping off with dessert, we had the chocolate Basque cheesecake, a brown sugar pie, and a pistachio cake. Choosing a favorite out of these is like choosing a favorite child I'm sure, but I am still craving more of that cheesecake, RUN do not walk to get that at the very least. Parking can be crazy in patchogue, there is a small attached lot and some street parking, but I'd advise using one of the municipal lots nearby and walking a little bit for your own sanity. One of my favorite dining experiences in patchogue to date, and will be happy to comeback here to try more of the menu for any occasion!

    I thought I would be sad to see the Brickhouse go, but Shands is an awesome upgrade and addition to…read moreMain St. I love the new vibe and life they brought to the space. I've come here a couple times, mostly for happy hour since they have great specials on drinks and food during that time (a Sunday happy hour?? sign me up)! There's a rotating list of cocktails as well as the staples. Last time I got a potato chip martini of sorts, because why not, and it was actually super tasty! Brunch is also a good time to come with a limited menu so you're not overwhelmed with a little of everything on it. I tried the salmon caesear salad which was light with a nice dressing. We also tried the pancakes which were fluffy and delicious, as well as the steak and eggs (can't go wrong). Bottomless mimosas are also offered for $25 additional. I can't wait to do lunch/dinner here in the future.

    So 2026 did not come in hot for me. My little romances with Italian Mr. Big and my half-Italian…read moreAiden? Yeah... both fizzled. On top of that, my damn car decided to up and die, so I've been bleeding money on Ubers just to get to and from work. I even had to go into work on my day off just to sit around waiting for the tow truck so they could junk it. Love that for me. After I handled business with the junkers, I said eff it and headed to Whiskey Neat. I was starving--no breakfast, running on fumes--and since my job's in Patchogue, I figured I'd finally try them for lunch. First of all... happy hour on a Saturday from 12-6?! Uhhh hello?? In my Angelina from Jersey Shore voice. And if you pay cash, you get the discount. Say less. They've got a fabulous small plates menu. I started with the French onion soup--ooey gooey mozzarella, cheese pull was undefeated. Soup was delicious too. I haven't had French onion in ages and it really hit. Then I had the pulled pork slider, which was really good, but BABY... those short rib croquettes? To. Die. For. I also had to get my classic deviled eggs. A little heavy-handed on the paprika, but still solid. Drinks were half off, so of course I indulged. Started with an espresso martini because I needed something to jumpstart my day. Then I had a French martini because duh--I'm a French girl ‍. That one was good. Finished with my classic cosmo. Not gonna lie, I've had better, but it did what it needed to do and helped me forget my troubles for a couple hours. Also great playlist of music. I got there and they were playing Ska. Love me some Reel Big Fish and No Doubt. Mixed with some Motown and Bob Marley. Made me remember the good old days.

    When in search of a place that would make my family of picky eaters happy (ie: a vegan, a…read morevegetarian, a traditionalist, and two that try to make the other three happy but like good food), WhiskeyNeat appeared like a gods-send on Yelp. I've been to Main Street Patchogue a few times before and I'm always amazed at how it's now like Huntington, with tons of eateries, bars and places to hear live music. It was a busy late Spring Friday night and my cousin told me if we were there just two weeks later (ie, post Memorial Day), there would have been lines to get in anywhere. So make resos! I made one easily earlier that day and when we arrived around 7:30, it was not packed, but it is pretty loud in there even half full. Our waiter, Jonathan, expertly took such great care of us from start to finish, even taking my father's dad jokes in stride. There's a solid cocktail menu, but I had a couple glasses of a better-than-decent prosecco. My cousin loved his espresso martini. For food, count on a couple respectable vegan entrees and I went with the Japanese eggplant with cashew ricotta. The eggplant is delicious, slightly sweet with a creamy rather than chewy (thank god) texture. The cashew ricotta is also tasty, but I do think it needed to be blended a bit more to remove the slightly grainy texture (the cashews might have needed more soaking). My father loved his French onion soup and pastrami sandwich. Separate paragraph for the fries. They deserve it. I'm glad we ordered these to share- it's an enormous platter of them. I appreciated that they were salted perfectly. I appreciate restaurants that can make satisfy a variety of preferences and dietary restrictions. The vibe here is festive and vibrant and a great choice for groups and families.
