Irene Conwell The food and menu are exceptional as are the wait staff and Angelina herself. A few of us gathered for a grammar school reunion (62 years after graduation) and we all loved it. I found everyone kind and considerate and very accommodating. Sitting at the bar, something I don’t care to do, waiting for my friends the Maitre D approached me and asked if I’d be more comfortable sitting at a high top table. I definitely was! We chatted until a friend came in. When our fellow classmates arrived we were led to a table and our server , Ita I believe she said her name was, was very accommodating and helpful. The food was fantastic, definitely not your run of the mill Italian food. It is an inspired menu. I had a saffron risotto with squid ink breadcrumbs and langoustines. It’s was perfectly cooked and unbelievable. During our dinner Angelina came over to our table introducing herself and asking our names than shaking our hands. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to eating there again.

D.E.A Came in for brunch and ordered the steak and eggs with potatoes and it exceeded expectations across the board. The steak was cooked perfectly, tender and full of flavor, and the potatoes were seasoned just right and cooked exactly how they should be. Everything came out hot, fresh, and clearly made with care. The service deserves special recognition. Attentive, polished, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in. You can feel that this place takes pride in both their food and their hospitality, which is rare these days. This is how brunch should be done. Quality ingredients, solid execution, and service that makes you want to come back. Outstanding experience and easily a repeat spot.

Alakbar Naghiyev I stopped by Rock Bar & Grill in Staten Island today and had genuinely one of the best dining/bar experiences in a long time. The atmosphere is fantastic — warm lighting, great energy, and amazing live music that gives the whole place a unique vibe. The staff was incredibly friendly. The people inside were fun, positive, and created a great social environment. The food was delicious and surprisingly high quality for a bar setting — fresh, flavorful, and well-presented. Overall, it’s the kind of place where you walk in as a guest but feel like part of the crowd right away. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends. Highly, highly recommend!

Jared Tinerino I need to write this review so everybody knows how amazing this place truly is. I canceled my Wife’s 40th Birthday the day before the party of 60 plus people to arrive. My Son got sick from school with a bad Virus I was heartbroken. To cancel the party was the only way and the Manager was so understanding and helpful. I have now my Daughters 1st Birthday booked for February and will make it extra special. I’ve had dinner at this restaurant before the food and everything is amazing. I recommend to definitely try and I’m a food buff highly recommend and great prices.

Phil Gill I had the pastrami sandwich and it was absolutely delicious! Robbie, my son, had a cheeseburger and he loved it. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. I appreciate that they are wheelchair accessible and the parking is free, though the lot is on the smaller side. Overall, a wonderful experience for both adults and kids.

Shannon Ben I’ve always heard Staten Island is the best of NYC when it comes to Italian cuisine, and Don Roberto must be one of the reasons why it holds that title. The wine, appetizers, and main course were all excellent. They brought bread and olive oil to the table, and I could have eaten an entire loaf with that olive oil blend—it even had real olives in it. There’s definitely a Nonna in the kitchen making magic. The service was incredible; the staff was attentive to every table without ever feeling rushed. This is a great spot for couples, groups, and families alike. To top it all off, we’re staying in Manhattan and discovered the ferry from Lower Manhattan to Staten Island is free. The trip was absolutely worth it

Phil Gill A Culinary Gem at Cole’s Dockside! I recently had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at Cole’s Dockside and had to share! The seafood paella was an absolute revelation—rich, flavorful, and packed with perfectly cooked seafood. If you’re a paella fan, you have to try theirs! We also ordered the fresh-caught halibut, which was equally impressive: incredibly tender, flaky, and so clearly fresh. Each bite was a delight. Beyond the outstanding food, the atmosphere was lovely and the service was top-notch. A special shout-out to Magic Mike, the magician behind the bar, who made the evening extra memorable with his fun magic tricks and welcoming energy. He’s truly a star and made us feel right at home. Cole’s Dockside has definitely become a new favorite. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for delicious food and a genuinely great time. Can’t wait to come back!

Laura Bennet I stopped by this cafe on a Wednesday morning and was honestly surprised after seeing some of the negative reviews. My experience was really good.The menu has a big variety,more options than I expected for a small cafe and everything sounded so good I didn’t know what to order. I ordered the cookie butter latte, and my husband got the pistachio perfection it was amazing.I can’t wait to come back for dinner time to see how the food is.

David Fanning My wife and I had a great experience at Maxs Es-ca on 07/06/25. It was on a Sunday so it was a little slow when we got there at 6 pm. Great dining room, I impressive bar, and professional wait staff. Good selection of specials but we went for the Beef Wellington which was excellent. Serious dessert menu and cocktail list. We will be back! Not cheap but, you get what you pay for!

Anthony J. Scott My recent visit to Corrados Cucina in Staten Island was absolutely exceptional, and the service was truly unbelievable. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like cherished guests. Our servers were incredibly attentive and anticipated our needs without ever hovering. It is clear they genuinely value their customers. Beyond the incredible service, the food was authentic and delicious—high-quality ingredients prepared perfectly. I highly recommend Corrados not just for the fantastic Italian fare, but for the personalized, five-star hospitality that makes it a must-visit. They set the standard for what restaurant service should be!

Blaine Maples Love this place! Its a semi- regular restaurant for this girl when Im in Staten Island! Everything Ive eaten is good and they have a great selection of drinks. On my last visit I had the marinated flank steak and it was amazing! The matrix burger is also one of my favorites. Sometimes we just order appetizers...

Taylor Ciccone I recently had my engagement party here for a private event & it was absolutely AMAZING ! The food , service , and vibe was a 10 out of 10 . All of our guests raved about the drinks as well . Erol , Mike , and their team are great ! Will definitely be back for dinner and a fun night out .

Sevara Lomangino This was my first time to go at Deluca’s restaurant with my family and let me tell you something everything was excellent !!!! Food comes in big portions! We went there to have our New Year’s Eve dinner and we picked à la carte option. Little pricey but we were very happy with food and atmosphere. We definitely going back there again!! Also service was excellent!!!

Willie Gonzalez Simply amazing! Salads are spectacular, dishes made with attention to every detail. Just found it and already been back 2 more times. Excited to try the next dish. Chicken dishes done to perfection. No one serves a more tender chicken. Decor is original and very beautiful. Service was excellent. Hope they stay and linger in Staten Islands culinary future.

S S I ordered through DoorDash and I’m so glad that I gave this place a chance. The food is absolutely delicious. I was greeted by the two kind women in the front who had my order ready and was super nice to me. Definitely was giving those southern hospitality vibes. The mac & cheese, the mashed potatoes and the fried chicken with the honey and the hot sauce is beyond delicious. I definitely can’t wait to dine in person. Thank you so much for having my order ready and for being so friendly and kind to me.
