Great little known restaurant 1/7/2009

Oyster Bay is a quiet town, so I'm not suprised that this restaurant isn't well know by people who aren't close to town. Il Piatto has consistantly good food. The steaks are on my favorites list. Diego the bartender is excellent and will give you the best recommendation for dinner. If you haven't tried it yet, put it on your list. Regarding thr reviews about bad service, you can get a bad or a new waiter in any restaurant on any given day. Personally, I've never had a problem with service here....and they do get some great bands here too. Pros: Quaint restaurant, good streaks, good music after 9:30 Cons: Bartender could use some help when they get a huge crowd in for popular bands more

Deceptively good 3/4/2008

We commented on how small it looked from the outside and were surprised at how sprawling the restaurant really is. Catherine was an excellent server and we enjoyed her expertise and attention. The pasta dish was nice and the chicken was also tasty. The cuisine was nothing extraordinary but fresh and savory. I would recommend to those who want to go out for a nicely priced, cozy dinner out. Pros: Cozy, great service, great bands,good food, clean Cons: food was nothing extraordinary. more

Excellent Food 2/21/2008

The food is excellent; two of my favorites are the veal chop and lamb chops. The service leaves a little bit to be desired, especially when they are busy. However, the bar service is fabulous. The atmosphere is wonderful - the restaurant is clean including thebathrooms. The bands they showcase are great. Pros: Great food Cons: Service could be better more

Great band, lousy food 12/31/2007

I was amazed by the attitude of the patrons and the establishment alike. We had gone there to see a band that we were interested in, only to be distracted by loud bar patrons that presented like throw-aways from Brooklyn's 86th Street. The band was great, the food was lousy and the bathroom toilet seat nearly fell off its platform. Too bad for the band, they were great, hopefully they will find a better venue. Pros: great band selection Cons: all of the rest more

Will never go there again. 8/29/2007

Decent food, but the service was so unreal I thought I was on Candid Camera. After pointing this out to the owner/manager, I was ""serviced"" with the most ignorant, unprofessional, ""Well, we're really busy, we weren't expecting this"" attitude. (Well, instead of walking around w/ your head up your a$$, help your servers, no?) People were getting up from their tables and leaving when the waiter disappeared for almost an hour. What a shame for an almost $200 night. Have never been more disrespected at any restaurant, ever-from Manhattan to South Beach to Sicily. Disgusting. Pros: The bathroom was clean. Cons: Waiter was rude to other customers, other waiter messed up our order and disappeared, owner unprofessional and rude. more
