I've been here a bunch over the years since they opened up. Love the quality foods and atmosphere…read more Servers are attentive and the venue is well kept. During the winter months I'd do takeout and every time the food was great at home. I love their soba noodles salad when it's in season, however they switched to a different noodle and it doesn't have the same oomph! The owner recognizes me from all the times I've been there for dining in, takeout, called, and parties and events. I went there again last night with some family and overall it was very nice. One star deduction for the rudeness we received from the manager. She came over after we ordered a second bottle of the Freemark Abbey (wine) (as they were completely out and the first bottle we ordered was their last bottle in stock) and gave us two "similar" options that were around the same price of the first bottle. Price doesn't equal to taste. We first asked if it's okay to try it even if we may not like it, and she kindly proceeded to open the bottle. We said "no thanks," to the Keever (it tasted disgusting in comparison), which she and her colleague highly suggested, and we asked nicely if the other bottle was an option to try, but she swiftly walked back inside with both bottles and brought out an open bottle of the Katherine Cab. We liked that better. She stormed away after she said something fast and nasty like "It's either the bottle or you have to pay per glass." We didn't quite catch it but the ultimatum put a bad taste in everyone's mouths. We wound up ordering the Katherine Cab. When we got the bill the server charged us fairly. We tipped well because it's not the server's fault she was upset about opening the wine that she pushed. Happy eats!

I came here recently on a Monday afternoon around 12:30PM to meet up with my friend. This spot is…read morelocated in a strip mall with a large free parking lot. We were seated right away upon entering and had no reservations. The place wasn't busy at that time. The inside decor was beautiful and our waitress was very sweet and patient with us as we took awhile to order because we were catching up plus being indecisive with all the menu options. My friend ended up ordering the Short Rib Bolognese and I ordered the Shrimp Tagliatelle. I was told the tagliatelle was made in house and it was absolutely delicious and DID in fact taste like it was freshly made! I tried some of my friends dish and there was a lot of meat in her dish (a positive!) and it was also extremely delicious! Bonus is that this restaurant is a few stores down from Marshalls and I'm a HUGE fan of Marshalls so I went there after to walk off everything I ate as well as shop :)

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.

The space features a contemporary design with a nice bar area, and the waitstaff were friendly, attentive, and on point throughout the evening. They also offer a happy hour menu (though it didn't apply to our visit). Food was more mixed. Overall presentation on the dinner plates missed the mark. The lasagna was solid (about a 3.0)--flavorful enough, but it just sat unevenly in the dish with no real visual appeal. The special osso buco came with a sauce that leaned too sweet; the risotto underneath was tasty, but the dish as a whole didn't quite impress. On the brighter side, the special soft-shell crabs were excellent--served in a Française-style sauce that hit the mark both in flavor and presentation. The fried calamari was fresh and tasty, elevated by the smart addition of fried artichoke hearts. Dessert sealed the night well, the homemade rice pudding sprinkled with walnuts was delicious and definitely worthy of a permanent spot on the menu. A pleasant evening overall, driven by strong atmosphere and service, with a couple of standout dishes balancing out the less memorable ones.

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.

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!

A Masterclass in Hospitality: Father's Day Brunch at 270 Post Restaurant…read more From the moment we stepped through the doors of 270 Post Restaurant in Westbury for their Father's Day brunch, we knew we were in for something extraordinary. This Haitian-owned gem didn't just host a meal; they curated a beautiful, unforgettable experience that perfectly honored the fathers in our lives. The Ambience "Hors Pair" The decor is simply hors pair unmatched and breathtaking. The restaurant strikes a flawless balance between contemporary elegance and welcoming warmth. Every corner feels intentionally designed, creating a sophisticated backdrop that elevates the entire dining experience. It is easily one of the most stunning spaces in the area. The Culinary Experience and a Show Stopping Dessert The food was nothing short of excellent. Every dish that arrived at our table was a triumph of flavor, beautifully presented, and cooked to absolute perfection. You can taste the passion and skill in every bite, blending high-end culinary execution with a soulfulness that kept us reaching for more. The true crown jewel of the meal came at the very end. We tried the Cognac Cake, introduced to us as Lionel's personal favorite, and it completely stole the show. rich, decadent and perfectly balanced, it left my palate absolutely hungry for more. it is an absolute must try that you will be thinking long after you leave. Impeccable Service & Heartfelt Hospitality What truly sets 270 Post Restaurant apart, however, is its service. The staff was impeccable, attentive, seamless, and deeply polite, ensuring our glasses were never empty and our needs were always met with a smile. The highlight of the afternoon was the unparalleled hospitality of the owner. In a beautiful, incredibly generous gesture that spoke volumes about their character, the owner personally gifted us a bottle of wine to celebrate the occasion. It is rare to find an establishment where the leadership is so genuinely invested in the happiness of their guests. The Verdict As a proud Haitian-owned establishment, 270 Post is setting a gold standard for luxury dining on Long Island. They delivered a Father's Day brunch filled with top-tier gastronomy, stunning aesthetics, and a level of hospitality that makes you feel like family. We left with full stomachs and incredibly grateful hearts. Thank you Lionel and Falysha for making Father's Day a day to remember. We will absolutely be back, and we cannot recommend you and your team highly enough!

We had been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got the chance. We arrived pretty…read morelate, around 10:00 p.m. Since we didn't have a reservation, we were told the dining room was closing, but we were welcome to sit at the bar, which worked out just fine. One plus is that there's parking available in the back, which is definitely convenient. The restaurant has an upscale vibe with beautiful décor and dim lighting that creates a nice atmosphere. There was music playing from a playlist, but no live DJ. Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to take any pictures since we arrived so close to closing. The food and drink menus were both fairly limited, and nothing really stood out to us, so we decided to order custom drinks instead. The drinks ended up being good. For food, we ordered the salmon entrée, seafood roti, and the jerk lamb chops with mashed potatoes and asparagus. One of my friends really enjoyed the salmon. I had the jerk lamb chops, which were flavorful and cooked well. The seafood roti was decent, but it tasted like a pretty standard roti--good, but nothing particularly memorable. One thing that wasn't too appealing is their hours. They open fairly late and close early, especially if you don't have a reservation, so your dining options can feel a bit limited. Overall, it's a nice spot with a great ambiance, convenient parking, and solid food. I may go back at some point to try a few other menu items, but I'm in no rush to return. That ending strikes a nice balance--it acknowledges the restaurant has potential without sounding overly enthusiastic.

I was…read moresurprised to see that it wasn't just two places next to each other, but indeed a ramen place and Cajun restaurant combined! It's weird- but it worked for my group! I came in with my friends to celebrate my birthday and, other than having a split decision on what to get, we happily mixed our orders with some of us getting from the Cajun menu and the others getting from the ramen menu. I got the Cajun shrimp pasta and it was pretty good. A nice big portion and good amount of shrimp, just not exactly a flavor I was crazy about. My friends that got from the Cajun side liked their meals, but said they would try the ramen next time we visit. On the other side, my friends that got ramen raved about it , loving everything they had ordered. I definitely will visit again and try the ramen next time. Other than food, service was great with very kind and attentive staff. They also made my birthday very special with free dessert and a sparkler! My friend did have a bit of a problem with her drinks, having ordered two of the alcoholic beverages and not enjoying either. Her first one had been too much juice and syrup with not any alcohol to taste, and her second one was the opposite with no juice and too strong alcohol taste. She did say that it was probably her personal preference that made her have an issue, but the staff were very understanding and a manager did come over to make sure everything was okay. I very much appreciated that and so did she! Overall, if you are in the area, this is a good spot to check out. It is a good location if you are visiting Round1, IKEA, or any of the few remaining shops in the mall.

From the moment…read morewe walked in, the place impressed us -- it was super clean, bright, and had a lively but comfortable vibe that's perfect for a casual seafood night. The staff was very friendly and attentive from start to finish. They made us feel welcome and were happy to answer questions about the menu. We went for the all-you-can-eat buffet, and it was absolutely delicious! The seafood was noticeably fresh and tasty -- crab legs, shrimp, mussels, and a great variety of other options were all well-prepared and flavorful. Everything tasted fresh, not frozen or overly salted like some buffet places. The sides and accompaniments were solid too. For the quality and unlimited seafood, the price was very reasonable -- definitely one of the best budget-friendly seafood options on Long Island. Whether you're craving fresh seafood or just want a fun, satisfying meal without breaking the bank, I would highly recommend Sexy Crab. Great spot for families, couples, or groups. We'll definitely be back soon! Justyna‍
