I've been several times over several years & enjoy the atmosphere more than some of the other City Island restaurants . It can be pricey , but the mussels are great & the portions are extremely large.
I can't remember exactly what I ordered, but it was served in bowl. My companion and I ate maybe a quarter of it. It was delicious and we had no way to take the leftovers home.
Portions are HUGE! Definitly more than one person can eat, especially with the bread you get and salad . Get an appetizer and share an entrée if you're on a date. I'll definitely go back.
I enjoy the outdoor seating . Sometimes the French fries are soggy. I mainly go for calamari , Hennessey colada or sangria
This is all that's included with ordering the Fried Jumbo Shrimp entree. That high glass drink was not included, btw it's the Ultimate Margarita that was strong and delicious!
The seafood combo was delicious. Appetizer, bread , soup , filled me up ! I ordered New England clam chowder . Have had better. A little too starchy. Not enough clams
Large crowd but the food is tasty and very big portions . Seems like the most popular place on the island . Make reservations , you get seated faster.
Love this place! Been coming here since I was a kid...hands down best "Shrimp Scampi " I have ever had...good mixed drinks ! Family place
The traffic was backed up for miles!We went to one restaurant first&our orders were "&&$)(;;:// up , we left-but food was great here. What does one expect going to eat at City Island On Mother's Day!
A little pricey , but delicious food and huge portions . You can't go wrong with any selection. I highly recommend Sammy's Fish Box!
Always come her when I want great fresh sea food . Never leave disappointed. Service is great. ????????
Sit in Mr. Lee's section. He will take excellent care of you & your party. He is super sweet!
Mussels , whole fish , shrimp dishes
The paella made every single one of us sick!! But the piña coladas and lobster is good here!
Amazing food. Paella was delicious. It feeds an entire family. You've been warned. Huge meal.
Crab legs , fish and chips , drinks
I thought the food was good, but very overpriced. At least the portions are large! Drinks were so expensive I couldn’t bring myself to have one. Shrimp cocktail was fine.
Make sure you get there early so you can get seats. The food is that good!
Great food and service. A bit pricey but definitely worth it.
That warm bread before the meal is so good. Shrimps are jumbo, no joke. .
The ambience is electric and the staff is so accommodating !
Big portions . The salmon and shrimp was very filling.
Seafood broil was delicious
Love this place! Great service, and great food!
Big portions of delicious food.. Go hungry or expect to bring home a doggie bag.
Everything is great here been coming here for 25 yrs
Large portions of food. Great staff .
Great food! The red snapper and crab cakes are delicious.
Massive entrees (definitely enough for 2)
Get the Paella ! It's huge and so good .
Seafood , plus they give you plenty of food.
Be on them for refills, cause they're so busy. As soon as you see your server, ask!
Great corn beard and the bread and cheese is delicious. Try their clams .
Huge portions ! Amazing food! Great service!
Great food and service
Crab legs and lobster were ok. The fish on the wood planks looks like what's up.
The cornbread with warm bread and cheese before the meal...mmmmmm...
Huge portions . Tell then not to over bake the lobster . Ours was too done. ????
Food took forever and a day to come out. Bill prices didn't match up with what was on the menu. Waiters/Waitress weren't filling out waters. Face painting was the highlight of the visit.
Everything is good!
The food was great
Paella Valeciana is HUGE! It says it's for 2 people but at least 4 or 5 people can probably share
Everything
Servers live off tips! Please tip your servers!
Over priced in relation to portion size. Nothing to write home about. If you've never had great seafood you'd feel at home here. Very mediocre and predictable even for city island .
Very delicious crabmeat salad !
Every thing
If you in wheelchair this is place to come to eat.
Succulent crab legs , lobster tail .
Everything
The food lacks seasoning. Also, you can split one portion between 2 easy! Margaritas are good! - Gwendy Glamarr B.
The shrimp, yucca fries, and salad were all great! Also a fun, breezy, scenic spot! - Candice Rivera
The lobsters here are delicious! Try the fresh clams with linguini or the baked stuffed shrimp ! Friendly atmosphere. - New York Habitat
