Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Locust Valley

We live in the area and were going out for Thanksgiving Dinner . The restaurant is beautiful from the outside and there’s a lot of good word of mouth regarding the food . We were greeted and seated as soon as we came in the door and our order was taken reasonably fast . We had wine with our price fixed dinners which included appetizers, entrees , and desserts. Everything was hot delicious and beautifully plated . When it came to dessert we weren’t offered coffee first and we would have also ordered espresso martinis but the waiter plopped the desert down and never came back .We even asked someone to get our waiter so we could place a drink order but they never came back . I think they definitely dropped the ball at the end but our tip was generous and we were polite but I think we may give this place another try one day just on the basis of the food itself . After the first two courses we were ghosts , so we’ll see . Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Another lovely experience at 2 Spring! Always lovely food and service and they always go above and beyond accomodating my elderly mother. The delicata squash, bone marrow, kale salad, and papardelle were all outstanding as was the Thanksgiving turkey plate.

Perfect place to go for a date night before or after dinner. We went before for drinks and a cheeseboard. Very quaint and lots of fun! There are tv’s to watch sports games as well as live music. The cocktails and food were delicious. We will definitely be back.

This restaurant is a GEM. Don't miss it. The food is spectacular, as one might expect from an owner who has been the Chef at Michelin star restaurants in NYC. The only difficulty you will have with the menu is choosing among the offerings. That difficulty gets worse after you have been there a few times, as each item you have previously had calls to you as you decide. One must be disciplined in forcing a new and different menu choice from your list of favorites. But rest assured, you will LOVE whatever new dish you select. Though the menu is moderately expensive, the portion size is ridiculous, In the many times my wife and I have been there we have always taken half of our dinners home for an excellent home meal the next evening. On top of the great food, great service, great value and quiet noise level, you will thoroughly enjoy Chef Joe's visit to your table during your visit. He is a joy to speak with and leaves a very comfortable sense of familiarity that will be there on your future visits. DON'T MISS THIS RESTAURANT!

We enjoyed our date night selections from the prefix menu, during restaurant week. The roasted Brussels sprouts were delicious. Our main meal was the braised short ribs, I would order again. The dessert was delicious making the meal and night perfect.
