Looking for a place to eat?

This is a list of restaurants my friends and I have eaten at over the years - most of them are located around the Los Angeles area but I've begun to post places in my new locale - New York (mostly Long Island and NYC areas as well as some places in Upstate New York). Some may not be the same anymore but some of them are, so take a chance and a risk. :) If you've been to some of these, feel free to add your own comments. Oh, and ratings are out of 5 loaves. :) Yum-yum! Let's eat!

La Casa Pizza & Restaurant

Location: Miller Place, NY. Type of food: Italian.

I don't know if this is a chain or not, but I definitely would not go here again - especially in light of what awesome food there is at O Sole Mio! The garlic knots that they serve you prior to dinner (after making you wait a very long time for them) was very very doughy....It's like they popped it into the oven just for a few minutes. Bringing back a "fresh" batch that was a bit browner did not make them any better really. The food was quite bland, except for the fried stuff (scallops, flounder, shrimp). Overall, it wouldn't be a place to which I'd return. Rating: 1 loaf

O Sole Mio

Location: Nesconset, New York (Long Island). Type of food: Italian.

This place has a take-out counter, sit-in-and-eat area, as well as a formal dining area. The food is fabulous and the portions are very generous. The bread they bring to your table is a must-try! But don't fill up on it if you want to eat your meal! I've been here several times and tried something new each time; and I must say, everything is always good. Rating: 5 loaves.
