Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Bayside

You can always count on excellent food, and solid service, and of course the restaurant is beautiful. We always enjoy the Harbor House.

Scrumptious food, attentive staff, lovely setting. What more can one want? Try the "Tree" drink (forgot the whole name)... worth it!!

An older couple was leaving as we were entering and they loudly exclaimed to each other as they were walking out “that was without a doubt the best meal i’ve had in my entire life”. They were underselling how amazing the food was and with such an immaculate atmosphere and attentive service it made it even more special.

We had an early reservation because we were going to a concert. We were initially seated in a quiet dining room and my wife asked to switch to a more lively area, which they did without hesitation. Our waiters, Stanley and Diana were an awesome duo curating our experience. Friendly and knowledgeable, and just the right presence. Our steaks were superb. I got the bone in ribeye and my wife the petite filet and it was so well seasoned I didn’t have to ask for salt! For a starter I had the lobster bisque with large chunks of lobster and my wife got the wedge salad which the waiter offered to have chopped for her. Of course. Nice touch. They have an excellent wine list. We started with a Latour 1er Cru and then to a Spottswood Cab which was served in a crazy long gooseneck decanter. The waiter was standing about 6 feet away to pour. It was fun and we had a Super experience. I loved this place.

Reliably excellent food, wine and experience. The consistency, high level of quality and the atmosphere provided by the staff makes Zarletti one of our top favorites in the city.
