Best Family Style Restaurants in Bayville

I was recommended by my boss to try this restaurant. So I took my wife to try it out. The drive was 50 minutes away from where we live, but we like to try new things together . Finding parking was hard but we managed and took a minute walk . When we finally made it I can say we were both surprised once inside. The host was right there to invite us in the lady was nice and opened the door for us are table was ready for us , the live jazz band was amazing good vibes all around . The waiter was was amazing always making sure we was taken care of with everything , the menu wasn’t overwhelming its was simple amazing dishes I had the crab cakes my wife went with the corn street salad , I for what she had for the main course but I got myself the filet mignon and WOW ! My hat off to the chef with everything and the bartender as well my wife and I don’t drink . But we asked the waiter if they could surprise us with a nonalcoholic cocktail and they didn’t disappoint. But to end the night the dessert was delicious I recommend the apple crumble . And I believe the owner or maybe manager came and introduced himself to us and because it was our first time there he offered us a glass of champagne on the house , we had to kindly say no because we don't drink but just the thought alone was thoughtful. I have nothing negative to say about this amazing place we will definitely be back . Keep up the great job everyone !

I love Ivy! It’s officially my go to spot for a night out. Awesome music, great drinks, yummy food, and the service is top notch! It’s a whole vibe. Definitely recommend!!

Everything was wonderful - food, service, ambience

We had a Christmas dinner for 8 people, my wife & myself are the only ones that have been here before, now there are 8 fans of this consistent & excellent resturant. You would be hard pressed to find a better all around resturant. Maybe the only complaint was the noise level, which is high but not overwhelming like so many other restaurants. I’m scheduled to return with a party of 7 before 2024 closes. 👍

Matteo's of Roslyn is always a top line favorite for special occasions with our celebrating both my wife's and our treasured family friend Bobby S. birthdays yesterday evening. And our server Tom is deserving of the highest of accolades. Cheers!!
