Best Casual Restaurants in Melville

The food and the staff in fogo de Chao in Walt Whitman branch is superb. We highly recommend it.

Excellent Christmas Eve at The Bryant. From our drinks and appetizers to our entrees and sides, everything was very good. Service was excellent. The restaurant was a few degrees too warm but the pace, service and atmosphere made for a festive evening. Given how chilly it was outside, I'm sure the warmth was welcome to most. I'd recommend coming here for a future Christmas Eve dinner.

Rustic Root is one of our favorite places to dine as well as hang at the bar. Food is delicious. There are no bad choices. Menu changes throughout the year which means everything is thought out and prepared with care. Drinks are also staple. Best Smoked Old Fashioned that I have experienced. Staff is very warm and friendly but a special shoutout to Hailey, Sam & Gio who all made a special evening memorable!

My family and I had a nice time. Waiter could’ve been a bit friendlier. Food was delicious but certainly overpriced….as is everything nowadays. I would recommend!

Amazing once again. We've been to Iavarone plenty of times. Yesterday happened to be our anniversary. I didn't even have to say anything and they brought us over a champagne toast. Food is always delicious. And service is on point. From the Hostess stand to the waiters and waitresses. Yohan took care of us. And she was simply amazing!
