A place to MEET & have a BALL! We are brand new to Patchogue & couldn't be happier to serve our local community freshly prepared meatballs a variety of different ways.Our idea began years ago when we realized the simplicity of the meatball and how it is a comfort food to many. We all grew up with our Grandmothers making Sunday dinner and "The Meatball" being the focal point of the day. We cherish those days of coming together with our families and the memories we created. Our goal here at "That Meetball Place" is to create an atmosphere for friends and families to gather together and enjoy each other’s company in a relaxed environment with a great vibe and simple food like grandma used to make. Our chef has taken fresh ingredients and developed meatballs, salads & sides to satisfy everyone in your family. We are excited for you to join us on this journey and please make us your "Place to meet and have a ball!"

Karvers Grill delivered an outstanding dining experience that deserves high praise. Our server, Michael, was truly exceptional—sweet, attentive, and wonderfully accommodating. Despite our party of five, including some particularly thirsty boys, Michael ensured everyone stayed well-hydrated throughout the meal. His knowledge of the menu helped guide us effortlessly in making delicious choices that suited our appetites. Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed the skirt steak—it was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and a dish I would highly recommend to anyone visiting. The combination of excellent service and a satisfying meal made our visit unforgettable. Karvers Grill is a gem, and I look forward to returning!
