    There’s no need to start blasting the music outside at the bar. We were having a great time until someone decided to turn up the volume to a level where I couldn’t hear myself think. Very annoying and not conducive to quality social interactions. Other than that, everything else was great.

    I had a fantastic experience at The Cove in Glen Cove! The setting is beautiful, right on the water, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing meal. The food was amazing—we ordered the firecracker shrimp, California heaven roll, truffle fries, crab cake, and crispy rice. Everything was delicious, though the crispy rice wasn’t as crispy as expected, but the flavor still made up for it. To top it off, the espresso martinis were absolutely perfect. Highly recommend this place for great food, drinks, and an unbeatable atmosphere!
