Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Oakdale

Wonderful! Good food, great service. We will definitely go back.

ITA Kitchen in Bay Shore is a hidden jem among all the restaurants along Main Street. When walking in the door you are warmly greeted and led to your awaiting table. We were sat out in the back of the property in a heated tent with permanent walls complete with gorgeous decorations and enough heat/ac ducts to make you more than feel like you are not dining outside in the 35 degree weather. The waiter we had was fantastic. Friendly, welcoming but not over bearing or hovering at all. As a waiter you need to be able to read the table and see how much attention certain patrons require. Everyone is not the same; some need more and some are very happy with the minimum and our server read us like a book. Drinks were great; tiramisu martini and a gingerbread Moscow mule(complete with a gingerbread man floater). Apps we had to go with the Ma, The Meatballs!! as well as the pesto arancini, both were delicious. We then had the chicken cutlet/vodka sauce/mozzarella entree and the veal chop/ prosciutto/ mozzarella truffle mushroom sauce/risotto. Man let me start by saying, damn!!! Huge portions but the flavor was spot on and my eyes rolled in the back of my head on the very first bite. I’m a professionally trained executive chef who has worked in many a NYC three star kitchen and trust me when I say, run don’t walk to have this veal chop. Best single dish of food that I have had in a very long time. Amazing. Could only finish half it was so enormous. Dessert was tiramisu and a cappuccino which is my go to dessert. Again spot on. It was a great meal and I am glad I didn’t pick Chili’s for a burger tonight 😂 Bravo to the entire Team at ITA Kitchen; and to the Chef, hats off to a phenomenal meal that I am so very grateful to have enjoyed . I will be back 1000%. Great food, great service, lovely atmosphere and an overall fantastic experience is a recipe for a winner 🏆 Great job all around 👏

Wonderful experience today!! We will be back again!! 🥰

Absolutely unbelievable experience from start to finish! Excellent food and excellent service. 100% will be back

I forgot to take pictures of our foods ordered. We lucked out and it wasn’t busy. We had a show at the Theater to attend. Our waitress was great. First time I had an Old Fashioned, been curious about it and it was really good. I had the Burrata Salad with grilled shrimp and it was delicious. Fresh ingredients. Hubs ordered Best Chicken on the Block and he enjoyed it. Our friends ordered the Southwest Chopped Salad and the House Burger. Both were pleased with their meal. Plus a cocktail Rusty Nail, which was also tasty. Also an order of Hand Cut Fries for the table. It was a big plate, plenty for four people to share and tasty. Next time I go I’ll be ordering a Rusty Nail. I like the look of their bar style, just something about it.
