   Dining at Hunter on Thanksgiving could have been chaotic, however it was anything but. We were seated on time, had perfect service from Francisco and staff, and food was outstanding. Leo managed the dining room very effectively making sure everyone was well taken care of. It was a delightful holiday experience. Thank you Hunter, once again for a terrific evening.

   I emphatically love Hunter like no other place in this region, northeastern nassau county. The interior is equisite: warm, sophisticated using natural materials. The service is exceptional and sincere. The foods choices are to wonderful: a seeded bread with fresh butter, the chicory assorted lettuce salad, Duck l'orange, a cod with shellfish, moroccan lamb stew... every one a dream.

   Another wonderful dinner at Hunter. We started with an incredible raw tuna appetizer. Quality of the fish was unbelievable. The chicken meatball special was also delicious, perfectly cooked pasta and a very flavorful sauce. Entree was blackfish..amazing prep with clams and shrimp. Francisco, our server, was great as always. We just love Hunter! ( restaurant and chef)

   Truthfully, I was surprised at the about face from the last few times we dined at Hunter. Let me first say that the staff serving us were extremely good. I can’t say the same about the food other than the Spanish octopus appetizer. The veal chop parm was no where near as good as it was the last time we ate here. I even mentioned to the waiter when I ordered the veal chop parm that I thought it was one of the best around. Well, not Saturday night. The steak my wife ordered was way too salty. One last comment about the food, the apple gallet dessert came out all soupy, disappointing. Like I said, surprised by this visit because it was really good the last fee times we’d been there. Maybe at some point in the future we give it another try, but wil not be racing back. Maybe it was just an off night.

   The food and service at Hunter is excellent. Our drinks were served immediately with bread and thin slices of prosciutto which was a very nice touch. A dish of olives was served as well. We chose an eggplant appetizer and linguine for the main dish. I chose a lamb tagine which was the special of the day. For dessert we picked a delicious pecan pie with tea. Every thing was scrumptious and served ontime. We highly recommend Hunter for a couple or a group.

   We booked this as a first time food adventure - Hunter offers a beautiful setting with a bit too much noise for our crowd on a Wednesday evening. Some added sound deadening materials might do the trick. Friendly host and bartender set the expectations for an evening of excellent food and service. Our waiter seemed rushed and unsure of his command and confidence with our table of first timers. Food was pleasant with a unique French inspired pizza and grilled octopus being the stars. The Fried calemari was over cooked for me. The mains were an assortment of salmon, cooked to perfection and massive bone on Veal Chop and a wonderful interpretation of Veal parmigiana pounded just right and cooked perfectly - $65 for Veal Parmigiana was a shocker. The vegan at the table was disappointed in the size of a simple salads and pasta primavera and we endured through a few rounds of bread and drinks. Too full to experience dessert we met Hunter the Chef / Owner and wished him well on his adventure. No value here, but quality ingredients cost money - if you’re looking for small spot with a unique menu presentation then Hunter is for you.

    This restaurant is very lively. The noise level can be high at times, however the atmosphere is upscale and the food and service are great. So I would definitely recommend for anyone that hasn’t been.
