Best American Restaurants in Melville

Oheka Castle is iconic. The food was excellent with many good choices. The cocktail menu is always interesting. We had a beautiful view of the lawn and fountain. Gary, the owner, came by our table to say, "Hello."

Delicious food and specialty drinks. Friendly and attentive staff. I would go back again.

Greeted and seated immediately upon opening. It was required to reserve with a credit card. Courteous server (I forgot his name - sorry). Diverse food menu including clearly marked vegan options. All meals were excellent. Bottomless mimosas were generous ($25), but the single one purchased for $13 was comparatively small. I wish the size difference was pointed out upon ordering. Chef Eric visited our table and we enjoyed conversing with him. *I felt a$15 charge to slice and serve the five of us our celebration cake was excessive. Overall a nice dining experience with exceptional food and a good vibe.

We're from out of town and drove by the place and liked the exterior aesthetic so I looked it up on yelp. The menu appealed to me so we booked a reservation. So glad we did because on a Wednesday Night the place was packed! Even with a reservation we waited a few but let me tell you it was worth it. My husband and I always share and the portions were definitely shareable. We ordered the truffle Mac n cheese, the house salad and a meatball jalapeño pizza. All items were just perfect. The house dressing was delicious and fresh and the amount on the salad was ideal. Did not drown it but merely enhanced the greens, tomatoes and cucumbers. I have had many truffle Mac n cheese dishes but this one is hands down my favorite. The cheese sauce was the perfect texture with a crispy cheese topping. I may need to grab the thesaurus to avoid saying perfect over and over. Because in a word it was all ....... perfect. We had simple cocktails. I had a bees knees and my husband an old fashioned. They were delightful and well done. Let me not forget the dessert. I chose a key lime pie and my husband had the crème brûlée. Once again it was phenomenal. I'm actually sad we don't live here to come back and work our way thru the menu. Overall 5 stars and so deserved.

Waiter Kenny was nice, attentive and very helpful with the menu.
