Reviews for Meritage Wine Bar in Glen Cove, NY
Oysters were not fresh (we sent them back) and seafood risotto had really funky smelling clams in. Got home and 2/3 of us were... unwell. The server was lovely and attentive, so he brings up the stars, but I worry that we got out of date raw seafood. Read more
This is a fantastic restaurant. One of the things that makes this restaurant so good is the staff. They are attentive but not... overbearing. They work with each other even though it's not their table to deal with. Is truly a team atmosphere with a staffand their attentiveness to your satisfaction I wish this restaurant was in my town Read more
Ownership of this place must have changed. Service was terrible, dinner was brought out when appetizer plates were never... cleared off table. Pasta was served with a soup spoon and when I asked for black pepper it was brought in a dish instead of apepper grind. It's unfortunate because prior owner met everyone at door and checked around restaurant to insure patrons weresatisfied. Read more
We were a party of 4. My wife and I arrived first and were promptly seated. They were fine with us simply waiting for our... friends. Our waitress, Anna, provided ice water in the meantime. She was cordial and welcoming. When our friends arrived shegave us time to catch up without hovering. She helped with our menu selections which turned out to be excellent. My wife shared3 delicious small plates with her friend while I and her husband had appetizers and regular entrees. Happy to say everything wastasty. We were having such a nice time, we stayed for sharing some desserts and had some coffees. They have a wide selection ofwines and the usual cocktails and beer. We truly enjoyed the place and the waitress was top notch. Read more
Delicious fresh meat and seafood at reasonable prices. Great Manhattan atmosphere. We go here every two weeks and have yet to... be disappointed. Great place to have a bottle and relax close to home. Thank you Sam and Shelby for always taking good care ofus. You guys are the best. (Update and downgrade to three stars). Other than Sam and Shelby, I have also had inconsistentservice with other staff.I waited over two hours for my food on my last visit and my waiter disappeared for long periods of timewithout checking in. It is the inconsistency of the staff that just ruins the experience. Read more
A gem in the heart of Glen Cove. Great atmosphere, food was indulgence of all senses and served by immaculate staff. Kudos to... the owner for making everyone visiting there smile and feel like a part of a happy family. Read more
Went to this neighborhood gem for happy hour. This is definitely the best happy hour around and the hours are Monday through... Friday, 4:30 to 6:30 PM. They offer draught beers for $4, house red and white wine for $5, select whites and reds and all welldrinks for $7. I had the house red, a Cabernet Franc Blend and it was delicious. My husband and son ordered the Captain LawrenceWinter IPA and said it was fantastic as well. Meritage offers four small plates for $5 each at their happy hour. We ordered oneof each: Arancini, Calamari, Meatballs and Bocadillo. We also ordered the trio of spreads, Hummus, Romesco and Tzatziki whichcame with homemade pita bread for $7. All of the portions were generous and more than enough for the three of us to share. Ourbartender Paul was wonderful… attentive and professional. We sat at the spacious bar and there is also a cozy dining room andoutdoor seating. They are open for lunch, dinner, and brunch. The dinner menu is creative and serves farm to table fare. I tooka peek at the menu and there are many seafood as well as meat choices all reasonably priced. They also have an extensive winemenu. This place is definitely a winner and we look forward to returning soon! Read more
