10. Madison Steak & Seafood

While visiting in the area on business, friend suggested the Madison. When we drove into the parking lot, it was pretty nondescript. I almost missed the sign since it is located on a busy highway with several businesses in the area. When we walked in there was no one in the place, but we were ahead of the usual Long Island dinner crowd for a Saturday night. The servers were seasoned and friendly. We did some apps, drinks and salads which were served promptly. The salad was good size and was of mixed greens which were fresh. We all ordered an entry and of course had to try the steaks. Everything came to the table hot and just off the grill, the NY Strip had the bone in and was very well flavored and perfectly done. Friends had a variety of dishes and no one complained. It was obviously satisfying for the entire table. As time went by, the place started to fill up and the band began to set up. By the time we left the place was nearly full and not a spot in the parking lot. We understand that this is a hot local spot for an older crowd with some great music. The one thing that is noticed that the way the inside of the restaurant has multi level floors, handicap access may pose a challenge depending on table availability and if the band is in place. Over all the food was good, the cost was reasonable for the area and we all left satisfied.

This is a very convenient SBUX location inside a Target store. Counter service is slow at times because there is usually only one person working. Coffee is consistently good, just go during off peak times.

Nice place to meet some friends for a drink. There are small tables by the bar to enjoy a meal as well. We usually sit there and split a meal as it's more than enough for two. The drinks are tasty and the service is very good. Will definatly go back another day.

When you first walk into Duck you are astounded at the novelty of the place and kick yourself for not thinking of it first. Customize your donut! What a great idea! Then the reality sinks in that you've paid nearly three bucks for one donut and it wasn't very good at all. The cake donut is fresh and warm, but all it does is immediately melt the topping into a gooey liquid which soaks it. The glazes are absurdly, teeth-hurting sweet, but you have to give them credit as the staff is surely nice and friendly. Regardless, it's not worth a return visit.

Wings were very good. The sauce was very flavorful. Calamari was the frozen type. It had a sauce that was straight up sugar. I will return for the wings again!Thank you for the great review! We look forward to seeing you again soon!

I came here with my wife for lunch. I ordered pancakes and corned beef hash. Food was good. My wife had a BBQ chicken wrap. She didn't care for it. Service was good. Still looking for a great diner in Suffolk, why are they so hard to find?

Reviewed By GeorgeH-LI_NY-ExPat
We were a large group having dinner between the afternoon and evening Wake for a deceased family member. They provided a private room which was all set up when we arrived. We had pre-selected a menu of six choices: Roast Sliced Sirloin, Broiled Salmon, Chicken Santorini, Chicken Franchaise, Chicken Marsala, Filet of Sole Franchaise. Everything was very good except the Sliced Sirloin, it was dry and no Gravy come with it. The staff was very efficient in taking the individual orders and serving the food. An excellent diner for both large groups or individuals.

For a Wed lunch the place was packed, parking full-this maybe due to a few sit-down restaurants in the area closing recently. Although we came for lunch and it is mostly business clientele therefore quick service is normal, the waitress was a bit brusque/abrupt-not a hint of a smile. The food arrived quickly, (California chicken wrap and tuna starter for my friend. Both looked and tasted good and I had to bring half of my wrap home as it was really a good size.There wasn't a follow-up (refills to our drinks or query if we needed anything). Again, abrupt, check was received and done in a timely manner. So the food is good, the service fast but not pleasant. Also, the space is cavernous and when full, very loud so holding a meeting would be tough.

What a find! only open for breakfast and lunch, this "cow themed" local favorite is incredible. Family managed, outstanding quality and service, large portions, and gourmet touches throughout the menu, presents the best of the old diner days and today's high quality standards. Whatever can be homemade is and the efficiency is really something to observe. You need some time to enjoy this busy spot and there's enough interesting things to notice while you wait. Even a motorcycle decorated in cow patterns. Couldn't believe our first visit, had to buy a couple of Maureen's cow coffee mugs, and then brought some grandkids a few days later. Come hungry and better bring cash - no credit cards here.
