Always love Island. Even during these difficult times..

Out local favorite restaurant where my daughter had her first meal out. They are doing everything right with outdoor dining too. Thank God for some normalcy in this pandemic. We love Island!

I went back for the second week in a row. My go to outside dining choice is now Island. The outdoor seating is good. The food is excellent and the service couldn't have been nicer. I almost don't want to write this so that it doesn't get too hard to make a rez.

I come to Island often and it is always such a great experience! I was nervous to dine outside in the cold but their outdoor setup was perfect. So cozy and cute! Staff was so sweet as always and food was delicious! The French Toast was so yummy and their Espresso Martinis... LOVE. Highly recommend :)

Great outdoor covid friendly dining

Great neighborhood gem with great outdoor dining set up!

Lovely outdoor dining experience and neighborhood gem and great food and service

Really nice staff and excellent social distancing!

Great service and delicious food.

We were three sitting inside. I requested a corner table from Ottavio, on the phone. He reassured me it would be waiting. Nothing. The pleasant lady who greeted us was able to arrange a table anyway. one in our party was a childhood friend who flew into New York for a surgery and we got together after 60 years. She lives in Chile and we were in primary school together for two years, in Istanbul. The food was unimportant but the Salads Nicoise... how can seared tuna have strings of fat in it? My wife said her crab cake, served over spinach, could have been a woolen glove. I n noticed our guest left half her order on the plate. Having said all that, I liked the decor, the ambience and the general feel of the place. I might give it another try before condemning it forever.

Great food during a difficult time.

I go to Island at least once a week. Like the food and the service. It is like being with a family. Great to be on the sidewalk.

Everything is always terrific- delicious food, cold martinis, and great service.

You expect a certain level of freshness at a seafood restaurant. The tuna in the tuna poke was brown from sitting in a marinade for too long. The lobster in the lobster roll was dry and tasteless, suggesting something that the restaurant purchases frozen, rather than prepares fresh. Wine glasses are also a joke - totally incorrect for proper wine service.

The Eggs Benedict was sub par.

Island is a nice neighborhood restaurant with a menu that offers something for everyone. The service was excellent, the food delicious, the ambiance was a tent on the sidewalk (!) and it is a friendly, pleasant place to enjoy lunch.

Delicious and cheerful. Tables were spaced very far apart and all precautions taken.

Wonderful restaurant. Very accommodating during the pandemic. But they are digging up Madison Avenue and you can't hear anything at lunch time. Hopefully, this will end!

Always wonderful - this time, dining outdoors, of course, there was jack-hammering going on across the street - just unfortunate. But a great restaurant!

It’s always a pleasure to eat at Island...and they’re being very careful in terms of virus prevention!

food was not prepared as requested. Returned several times. food was not hot

Back table was just ok... food was very good service was excellent!

Great outdoor setting and very good food, thank you! Will come again soon.

We went to the Island to celebrate my birthday. I ordered the snapper entree, my date ordered the lobster roll. Food wasn’t incredibly flavorful but was plated pretty. The cherry old fashion was delicious. Staff was attentive. Ambiance was romantic. I would return for the drinks and ambience.

Nice menu choices. Food was very good. Service a little slow, but believe that was because they were busy and only had two servers working. Would definitely go again.

I have been to Island many times and I am sure it is because of Covid but the food was mediocre at best. My curry chicken salad sandwich could not have been more bland and it had more apple then chicken. Meh!

Excellent food, gracious service, and a pleasant ambience. The maple-glazed salmon with brussels sprouts is terrific. And it would be very hard to say no to that brownie with vanilla gelato!

Excellent service. Staff did everything to make outdoor dining experience as comfortable as possible

Ambiance was nice enough, and servers were nice, albeit slow. Food itself was horrendous and way over priced for what was served. We will not be going back.

This is a neighborhood bright spot. Great ambiance inside and out.

Great food with pleasant outdoor atmosphere. Delicious food. Great service.

Chef, Abad always prepares to your specifications, plus his exquisite handling! I miss Adrianna, for special waitstaff understanding...She'll be back soon.

They're all great and I'm pleased to join them again, after a bit of a Pandemic sabbatical.

Jake was a most efficient and attentive waitstaff. Was nice to see the GREAT Kitchen staff again. Thank you!!! Arthur GI

I was disappointed, during the past few months I've dined Island and have had very good meals. Brunch this time was unfortunately not good. Burger was overdone, bun hard, fries were ok. Service was exceptionally slow.

They are doing such an amazing job with the pandemic. Lovely outdoor eating setting with comfortable chairs and heat lamps - feels Parisian. Service is very good. And food is amazing as usual. So grateful to have this lovely spot in our neighborhood

Best kale salad anywhere

Wonderful brunch, great staff! Perfect way to spent a lovely afternoon!

Great date night! The meal was delicious. The service was excellent. The outdoor seating arrangement was best it can be. We felt very respected and safe with COVID-19 protocols and other diners were very considerate of the staff with mask wearing as well. This was a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience.

It is wonderful to be back at this neighborhood classic! The attentive and friendly staff made dining outside as friendly as it used to be inside. Special attention was given to my elderly mother, and we were accommodated at a table that was suitable for her. The food was as delicious as ever! Highly recommend!

Nice cozy restaurant, ate indoors for brunch/lunch. Food was well prepared and tasty, the staff was friendly and accommodating. Nice nautical themed decor.
