THE FOOD: Dunns River Lounge offers authentic Jamaican cuisine for over 17 years in a casually elegant & intimate setting on Long Island. Our menu, prepared by Chef Bobby and his crew, features traditional dishes like Jerk Chicken, Braised Oxtails, Curried Goat and Jerk Salmon as well as creative daily specials like Jerk BBQ Ribs, Jerk Lobster Pasta & Codfish Fritters with Guacamole.

THE COCKTAILS: We are foodies, but we're equally known for our tropical hand-crafted cocktails made with premium liquor and fresh ingredients.

THE VIBE: Whether you dine with us indoors or on our outdoor patio during the summer months, you'll feel like you are in Jamaica. Enjoy weekly live entertainment with the sounds of reggae, soca & r&b. We're great for everything from small dinners for two to large family-style celebrations for 20 guests or more!

AND YOU: When you come to Dunns River you will feel like family. As we always say, "the only thing we love more than good food and drinks is You! "

    Everything amazing except their greeting process. Terrible!!! They have no one to seat you and the waiters act like you are invisible.

    Really nice spot good food and friendly service. My only disappointment was there was a stove issue which caused a delay in getting our food, however the waitress did inform us of this when taking our order so that we expected it. Otherwise, will definitely return.
