Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Islip

Always great time and terrain so festive, service was a little slow waited 15 mins for a glass of Prosecco but it’s Christmas Eve, chicken Cesar salad was delicious. Will keep going back

Has the lunch menu which is great value: mushroom veloute and branzino a la plancha. The dining room was full at lunchtime on a weekday which was surprising. Service was nevethless efficient and dishes were served promptly and cooked to perfection. Never a surprise at L"Escale.

Always good food and service at any of the LFRG restaurants. We chose Oakdale Brewhaus because it’s closest to our home. Had a burger, watched a little football, nice waitress. What more could you ask for. The only issue is that parking lot when that playhouse has an event. We had to park behind the post office by a loading dock but all good and worth it.

Salt & Barrell is a combination of great food and great service with an energetic vibe. Whether it's the host, the manager or the server, everyone who works there is super friendly, and very accommodating. The menu evolves, so going regularly doesn't create monotony. The drinks are phenomenal, and their whiskey menu (The Bible) is extensive. They could use a little improvement on the wine list (which is very small, with not a lot of good options), but you can easily get past this. Salt & Barrell is by far one of the best restaurants in Bay Shore, and worth a visit.

Amazing combinations and flavor profiles. I was skeptical about a few things we ordered but was exceptionally surprised. Will definitely be coming back.
