For Reservations and Event Inquiries please feel free to Call Nunzi's By The Water to connect with a member of our staff. 516-517-8344. We look forward to serving you. Nunzi: Family… Friends… Food… Drinks… In this particular order, that’s what mattered most to him in this world. When chatting he would occasionally reference “those were the Good Ole Days”, and if you think about it, we never actually realize when we are in those special days or moments. And boy did he also talk about and stress the importance of “Traditions”. He often said…. “When I pass they’ll be no more traditions in this family”. Well here at Nunzis we plan on keeping his traditions alive. You will eat with us, drink with us and laugh with us. Families and Friends all enjoying delicious food, fine drinks, good music and making memories. For those of you that never got a chance to meet “Nunzi”, these were the memories that he lived for and the nights we know he never wanted to end.

• Italian • Long Beach

Booked 5 times today

Grotta di Fuoco, which translates to Fire Cave, is an industrial, rustic space with subtle lighting, raw steel, reclaimed wood, and concrete finishes. Step inside, descend below street level, and enter our vision of a cave. As for the fire, our focal point is a wood burning oven right next to the bar. You can sit close enough to feel the warmth, hear the crackle, and smell the scent of food being cooked, all while being entranced by the open flame. While Long Beach is rocking during the summer with the beach, Boardwalk, events, and outdoor dining, winter is when Grotta heats up. Open year round, the off season is the perfect time for out of towners to come to the West End for an unforgettable meal. We hope to see you all soon!

We had a sausage and escarole appetizer which was heavenly. My husband ate a pasta special, he thoroughly enjoyed. I had St. Peter’s fish, as usually it was excellent. The staff is friendly, the owner visits tables to ensure you are happy with your meal. Thanks to all who work at Meta!

First time at Churchill's. The wait staff were good, the food was good and we were served in a timely manner. However, it was SO noisy, it was difficult for the 5 of us to chat.
