Monsoon Asian Kitchen & LoungeI'll Be Back!Monsoon is at the top of my list for favorite restaurants in Long Island. Everything we had was delicious, service was excellent, and the place was a great spot for a night out. I will definitely be back in the very near future.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMBest EverHad a wonderful Mothers Day. The food at Monsoon's is very flavorful and we look forward to our dinners there. Everything I have had there so far has been incredible. This was about our 4th visit and we always recommend going to Monsoon's to all our friends and acquaintances. Look forward to our next visit hopefully soon.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMI've been here several timesI've been here several times now, the food and the service is consistently fabulous. It was the first time I tried the chicken chow mein, and all I can say I'm sorry I waited so long to try it. The pork belly app was fabulous, but I was slightly disappointed with the black pepper spare ribs as they were flavorless, and I couldnt taste or spot a single pepper grind. From what I understand the shaking beef is a signature dish, and my husband said it was the best beef dish he's had in years. The Singapore Sling cocktail was excellent, very tasty. We were seated in the 1st dining room off the bar area, and were alone in that room until we were halfway through with our entree's. Some may appreciate the privacy, not me. I felt somewhat cut off .5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat ExperienceThis was my first visit and I was really impressed. The service was excellent. Our server was very attentive and friendly. She made excellent recommendations. The food was outstanding. The menu had a wide variety of Asian dishes. Looking forward to going back to try different things!5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMAsian-Fusion on Long IslandMonsoon is a great find on Long Island. As you walk in and see the exquisite detail of the decor, you are transformed to an exotic locale. The bar is warm and inviting. We were escorted to the upper level for our meal, and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We were a party of five, but we had ample space between us and the adjoining tables. We were neither crowded nor rushed with our food choices. Our food by the way, from the calamari appetizers, to our entrees of garlic shrimp to spare ribs was tasty, and delectable. Some of my party were there for the first time, and they enjoyed themselves so much that they vowed to come back again. We truly had a wonderful time in this Asion-Fusion restaurant called Monsoon.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMWait StaffOur Waiter was exceptional!!!! We have the same waiter every time we visit Monsoon and he is wonderful. He really makes the dining experience easier and more enjoyable by recommending dishes and making sure we have everything we need.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat foodOur first visit to Monsoon was very good. We sampled several items off the menu sharing them. All items were fresh and delicious. Our cocktails, were very good as well. We highly recommend.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMFun but priceyToo many hosts & hostess' roaming around aimlessly greet you when you come in.However once at the table excellent professional service, food was terrific. just portions were small.. did not understand why they suggest that dishes be shared, appetizers were three pcs or 4 pcs, dinner portions were the size of small appetizers and prices were NYC prices; very nice lounge atmosphere, bar was not packed (at 8:30 on a Friday night) which is not a good sign when 1/2 the place is a bar. There were available tables, did not seem to be a wait for a table, which is odd since on open table they were booked... but they may not put all their tables on open table. Would not go back or suggest it to friends as the price for the portion is not worth it5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent experienceI loved the atmosphere and the very different food. I tried all different things I usually don't eat. I was pleased with all the choices and the very different dessert choice of fried oreos.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMfood was very good. the restaurantfood was very good. the restaurant is lovely looking and the wait staff very capable. The noise level from conversations was almost intolerable. We were four diners and it was impossible to carry on a conversation without shouting, which contributed to the noise leve.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMTook our daughter for herTook our daughter for her 21st birthday and it was wonderful. The staff was very accomodating, as we were a party of 10 that became a party of 12 once we arrived. The service was terrific and our waitress Cindy was incredible...very professional, accessible and she made suggestions when appropriate, which we were grateful for.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMLeslie jospeService was excellent. our server,Joanna, knew all about the fare they were serving, including ingredients that could be a source of allergen to some diners.we happened to be on somewhat of a tight schedule and our server made sure we were promptly served.

From the moment you walked on the property to entering the lobby to being greeted with a smile. Out table was up top with a Birdseye view of the interior. Our waitress Deanna was fantastic and well versed with the menu. The food was fresh with distinctive flavors. She also gave us a great complimentery dessert with a birthday candle. We would highly recommend Monsoon !4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMWe appreciate Adam askingWe appreciate Adam asking the chef not to put ANYTHING on the rib eye. The steak was soft and delicious. My Pad Thai was out of this world.3/28/2013 12:00:00 AMFood was excellent, my onlyFood was excellent, my only gripe is that they charge you $3 for a small bowl of plain white rice, shouldn't that be included with a $30+ entree in an asian restaurant? Aside from that, this is a very cool place, we had a great time.3/26/2013 12:00:00 AMA pleasant Sunday night dinner.A pleasant Sunday night dinner.

Where I was seated was way too loud for a couple to have dinner. We were shouting at each other as if were in the middle of club.
The food was delicious.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMGirls night out and we hadGirls night out and we had a great time. Drinks were good! Food was dellishious!!

Our waitress was extremely knowledgable and friendly. I would highly recommend sharing several appetizers, to get the most tasting opportunity. The Rock Shrimp tempura was delicious, as was the shrimp pad thai. We went extremely early so the noise level was low but I have heard from friends that it can get fairly noisy later in the evening. Overall a clear winner.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMNot your ordinary Asian. DineNot your ordinary Asian. Dine here for adventure in taste and you will not be disappointed. There are even twists on traditional dishes that provide unexpected flair to plates like General Tso's Chicken; while some of the familiar taste is there, it's just not the same heavily fried and sugared ball of meat. My one disappointment was the Kim Chee Pancakes; while we expected that delectable taste from the marinated cabbage and spice, what we tasted was simply a fried pancake, good to dip in other sauces, but without the desired Korean flavor. Due to the number of wonderfully described dishes on the menu, this will become a must place to re-visit. Going with a number diners will enhance the meal with more tastes from which to share3/3/2013 12:00:00 AM
