With stunning views and multiple fireplaces, comfortable seating for 100+ guests, two lounge areas, deck overlooking the Great South Bay, and both an indoor tavern room and a waterfront bar, The Lakehouse is touted by many as “one of the best restaurants on Long Island.” At night, the deck is illuminated, as is the waterfront lounge area where guests can congregate for after-dinner cocktails. This New American fine dining experience is not to be missed. The Lakehouse can now be reached by boat as well, as guest dockage is available at the new gorgeous bayside locale.*Please note that we not take reservations for particular tables & we cannot promise a particular area or table.

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.
