Bistro 72 - (Near Riverhead, NY)

5 /5 Renee Blake: We had 4 specials suggested by WAYNE, the best Waiter in town— shrimp risotto, paella, tequila clams and seared tuna. The drinks were raspberry lemon drop and lavender blossom martini. Everything was fresh and delicious, and it was clear that the head chef is committed to and in charge of the kitchen. Go just to experience the highest service by waiter Wayne. He is friendly, kind, attentive, and the most thoughtful. We will return!

4 /5 Mrs Kay Bee: Back for another round and Bistro 72 did not disappoint! Food was plentiful and the servers were attentive. One of my favorite things about staying at this location is the poolside service, or the option for a sit down traditional dinner. Over the course of our stay we tried an assortment of their food: Buffalo Chicken Mac, Regular Mac, Twisted Pretzel, Avocado Toast, Buffalo Wings, House Salad with Shrimp. We enjoyed most of it! The drinks were great too.

4 /5 Marlene is Key: My first visit to Bistro 72 was when Hotel Indigo opened in September 2010. My then fiancé (now husband) and I booked a few rooms for our guests for our May 2011 wedding. I have visited just a few times since then, as it holds a special place in my heart. Overall, the hotel now looks a bit dated, the parking lot has one entrance and exit which is a bit confusing. The vibe walking in is very nice as it’s great to have a restaurant in the hotel. I stopped by on Tuesday June 24th in between my social work shifts as I had a long day ahead and it was very hot out due to heat wave. I sat at the bar and was quickly greeted by server who was nice. I ended up ordering a mocktail and a portobello mushroom sandwich which was not as tasty as I had anticipated. The 2 gentlemen sitting next to me waited a bit longer for their food which was awkward for me, but they got a discount I believe. I wanted to look at dessert menu but I was offered my bill instead lol overall it was nice to stop by. The restroom is very clean and accessible, the lobby area is nice too, I wasn’t greeted by anyone there which is such a shame as my family member works in hospitality and I know it’s important to acknowledge people. Overall, Bistro 72 is not at the level of food and service I would expect from the brand but it’s a good pit stop if you’re in the area. I think a rebrand and basic customer service skills would go a long way.

5 /5 Diane Kuhn: Great Tuesday deal- 3 shrimp (other options were pork & chicken) tacos & a handcrafted margarita for $20. We also tried other handcrafted drinks that were fabulous! Lavender Blossom and Espresso martinis $14. The evening was a blast with such a great bartender! They have Happy hour 4-7.

5 /5 Michelle B: Loved the food and ambiance. Crab cakes in a corn puree were delicious. Please be advised there is a different price for credit cards.
