   Noisy. Table next to us were 3 mothers enjoying their dinner as 5 unruly children in another booth tearing the place apart, adding salt and pepper to the tabletop, screaming and running around. Terrible. Restaurant should not allow unruly undisciplined children in at dinner time. These 3 mothers should learn how to raise disciplined children. Is this an example our future generation?

   Lunch at The Bryant was not just a great meal—it was an experience that showcased both exceptional service and true professionalism. Our server, Ben, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and on top of every detail. He ensured everything was just right, making our visit seamless and enjoyable. The food was fresh, well-prepared, and exactly what you’d hope for in a quality dining experience. What truly stood out, though, was how the entire staff handled an unexpected emergency. Instead of panic, we witnessed genuine care and professionalism. Every team member—front and back of house—moved quickly to assist, ensuring the individual in need was taken care of with compassion while also keeping the restaurant running smoothly. They managed the situation flawlessly, promptly resetting the area and making sure guests remained comfortable. It’s one thing to offer good food, but it’s another to have a team that truly cares about both their guests and each other. That’s what makes The Bryant in Melville a standout.

   We sat at our table 25 minutes before anyone came over and even offered water. We had a show to go to so we gave ourselves plenty of time, but with the delay from the service staff, we had to rush through dinner. The waiter offered us bread and butter, and we had to ask two times for it. Also, the only beverage we had was the water. Classes were constantly empty and not refilled.

    A good casual alternative to more formal restaurants without sacrificing any quality
