Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in East Setauket

Wow—this place is rare in the best way possible! The steak? Absolute perfection. The tuna? Melt-in-your-mouth incredible. The calamari? Crispy, tender, and packed with flavor. And the asparagus? So good it could turn a carnivore green! No wonder this is the restaurant owner’s favorite spot—if great steak is the measure of success, this place is well done. Our waiter, with over six years under his belt, wasn’t just knowledgeable—he was like a walking, talking Michelin guide. Highly recommend for an unforgettable meal! 🔥🥩🍷

From the moment you walk in you feel welcomed - all the staff are friendly and efficient. The food is delicious with lots to choose from. From appetizers to desserts, it is all so very good. We keep coming back and are never disappointed.
