Best American Restaurants in Islip

Best restaurant in the area. Excellent menu with many selections. The presentation was impeccable. Definitely a must go to. Great value. Staff from the hosts, servers & valet top notch.

Absolutely everything we ordered was perfect. And it was hard to make a decision so we’ll have to to come back. There were so many options that I loved. My friend and I ordered dirty martinis, mine had blue cheese, stuffed olives, and hers did not because she doesn’t like that. They were perfect. Then we both ordered a Manhattan with Rye, which was also lovely, although the restaurant should probably invest in some better cherries… You should have Amarena cherries on hand with craft cocktails.  For appetizers, we got the risotto balls, the meatballs, and the artichokes oreganata… Everything was fantastic and we took some home. For dinner I ordered the Andrew’s chicken, my husband ordered the spicy chicken with the cherry peppers, and our friends ordered the shrimp over spinach. We were way too full for dessert but next time I’m getting the espresso martini flight for dessert! Our waiter was not around enough, but he was super busy from what I could tell— the place was jammin.’ However, there is plenty of other busing staff and food runners that were always on hand to help with anything we needed. We will definitely be back. 

This is an amazing dining experience from beginning to end. We were taken to our table without delay. The waiter was helpful and gracious. The ambiance was warm and inviting. The food was delicious and styled to perfection. A great meal. A great night. I highly recommend The Lake House.

Food is always spot on! Lobster Bisque was perfect, rich and creamy with plenty of lobster pieces. Our burgers were cooked a nice medium rare as requested. Nice beer on tap selection. Worth a visit!

We joined some friends at Roadtrip last night- the first time for all of us. We were instantly impressed by the varied and imaginative menu! So much fun and difficult to choose between the many interesting choices. I and my female friend went with the Brussels sprouts for the app…terrific. The guys shared the bacon in Vermont maple syrup- also delectable. Three of us chose entrees from that week’s Wyoming menu (the chicken with lavender honey and the bison meatloaf) and my husband chose the ribs off the regular menu. We were all so amazed by the flavors and presentation and vowed to go back. This is a wonderful new venture and bonus for area diners! Kudos!
