We had a great experience! We were given a complimentary glass of champagne to celebrate our anniversary. Such a wonderful surprise. This wasn’t my first time, but the food is amazing. Only thing I would change is extra capers on my meal. However, my husband and I were so full and happy with our meals. The service was beyond amazing. You won’t be disappointed.
Ferryman's GrilleResponded on 8 November 2024
Thank you for celebrating your anniversary with us, and for sharing such a lovely review! We're delighted to have helped make your special occasion memorable with a glass of champagne. We appreciate your feedback on the capers, and we’d be happy to add a little extra next time! It’s always a pleasure to welcome you, and we’re thrilled that both the food and service exceeded your expectations. Looking forward to your next visit!

This was our 1st time dining here & it was the 1st night of LI restaurant week - 6:30 reservation for 3 people & not crowed at all. We ordered 2 Halibut dinners & 1 Roasted Duck - unfortunately the Halibut was very salty - too many capers, & the Duck had to be sent back because it was undercooked & very fatty. The waitress was very accommodating & offered another choice - so Beef Short Ribs was selected - really not much better. Dessert time - we all selected the cobbler - keep in mind this is the 1st night of restaurant week - and were told they ran out. Our waitress was embarrassed & appalled - the poor thing. None of this was her fault. The young manager came over to apologize for everything we encountered - kudos to her!!! She gave us 30% off the bill - She saved our night, but we're thinking it will be a long time before we go back - maybe the spring - for another try. Good luck to the rest of the diners during Restaurant Week!
Ferryman's GrilleResponded on 1 November 2024
Hello Linda, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry that your first visit fell short of expectations, especially on the opening night of Long Island Restaurant Week. Your feedback on the halibut, duck, and the dessert situation is invaluable, and we’ll be addressing these points with our kitchen team to ensure improvements are made. We’re glad to hear our waitress and manager did their best to make your evening better, and we appreciate your kind words about their efforts. It means a lot that you’re considering giving us another try in the spring. We hope to provide you with an experience that reflects our true standards. Thank you again for your honest feedback, and we hope the rest of your Restaurant Week dining is fantastic!

Ferryman's grill was a great dining experience. Food was excellent, service was wonderful. The dining room is a pleasant nautical decor. It was quiet even though most tables were occupied that made conversation easy!

Butternut squash soup was so thick you couldn't eat it. Duck was not seared enough so skin was very chewy, risotto not cooked enough, crunchy. Vegetables delicious. Warm apple crumb was no warm at all. Crab cakes were excellent Service and Server was excellent and very apologetic. They took 10% off bill

It was a beautiful fall day and decided to go to Ferryman’s Grille not in the middle of summer. Food was good but have to say abit pricey but I guess that is tourist prices. The salad was $16 which was fine but if you wanted to add chicken it was an additional $17 which is absurd.

Hello Jean, thank you for visiting Ferryman's Grille and for sharing your thoughts! We're glad you enjoyed the beautiful fall day with us. We appreciate your feedback on our pricing and will keep it in mind as we continue to improve. Hope to see you again soon!
