Best Date Night Restaurants in East Islip

Absolutely everything we ordered was perfect. And it was hard to make a decision so we’ll have to to come back. There were so many options that I loved. My friend and I ordered dirty martinis, mine had blue cheese, stuffed olives, and hers did not because she doesn’t like that. They were perfect. Then we both ordered a Manhattan with Rye, which was also lovely, although the restaurant should probably invest in some better cherries… You should have Amarena cherries on hand with craft cocktails.  For appetizers, we got the risotto balls, the meatballs, and the artichokes oreganata… Everything was fantastic and we took some home. For dinner I ordered the Andrew’s chicken, my husband ordered the spicy chicken with the cherry peppers, and our friends ordered the shrimp over spinach. We were way too full for dessert but next time I’m getting the espresso martini flight for dessert! Our waiter was not around enough, but he was super busy from what I could tell— the place was jammin.’ However, there is plenty of other busing staff and food runners that were always on hand to help with anything we needed. We will definitely be back. 

We had scallops and a pork chop. Both were extremely flavorful and delicious. The service was impeccable. Highly recommend.

I hosted a party of 11 for my wife's birthday. Food was absolutely amazing with no equal. 11 people 1100$ with 250$ in tip . And I can say this anything for my wife. And the food was worth every penny. Great job tellers see you very soon.

The view, as promised, is beautiful. Food is excellent. I had the calamari appetizer, which was just the right level of spicy, and the shrimp Cobb salad, with a fabulous chocolate martini for dessert. Our waitress was affable and efficient.

Ever since the very first time that I went to Whalers I keep going back. T food is delicious and the staff are all fabulous! It has become my favorite restaurant.
