Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Syosset

From the moment we stepped into Opus, we were enveloped in an aura of warmth and sophistication. The ambiance was elegant and lively, the decor was modern and tasteful - just an overall beautiful vibe. But the true stars of the show were the service and the food. Our server, Juan, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. They guided us through the menu, offering insightful recommendations tailored to our preferences, as well as their specials, and catered to our allergy restrictions. Their service was seamless, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. And then came the food. Each dish was a masterpiece of culinary artistry. The seafood tower was plentiful - filled with king crab legs, lobster, oysters, and shrimp. The sushi was truly something else - we enjoyed an assortment of rolls. And let's not forget the crème brûlée donuts– heavenly. The perfect ending. Opus a true gem. I feel that Opus is underrated when comparing to the other Scotto restaurants, this location is my absolute favorite. The combination of exceptional service, exquisite cuisine, and a captivating ambiance created an unforgettable dining experience for my family and I. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking a truly memorable meal. Thank you to our server Juan and Tim the manager who made sure we were happy from beginning to end. We will be back!

You should start your evening with a visit to the bar and a drink expertly mixed by Alejandro. The staff at Rothmann’s always goes above and beyond. The food is delicious, you can never go wrong with the Seafood Plateau and a Poterhouse steak. Then finish your night with an affogato. I promise you, you’ll be back for more.

We took two other couples tonight for their first taste of Testarossa. One couple from Florida and the other N Carolina. Everything ordered was received with “Wows, this is delicious, and I’ve never tasted octopus this tender”. Each pasta dish was extraordinary a very filling. Our dessert was simple-2 tartufos for the table with a plate of fresh whipped cream.

We had an amazing experience. Our servers Gaby and Stephanie were exceptional and very professional. Their knowledge of the food and drinks were impeccable. They made our Christmas Eve dining experience very memorable and enjoyable.

We sat by the window for a beautiful winter view. Our server, Miguel, was very polite, personable and attentive. He also took a bunch of photos for us at the end- very helpful. Food was delicious and my meal (salmon entree) felt well-balanced. Castle owner, Gary, visited our table and that of the other guests, which was cool to be able to converse and learn a little more about the castle. All the workers seemed to know him, so that seemed like a positive, too. They also gave my daughter a coloring book, crayons, and a yummy package of mini cookies to take home. Only negative was that the fire alarm went off during meal, which startled us. Then we were informed that happens sometimes because the castle's fire monitoring system is sensitive. It turned off after about 15 seconds. Overall, we had a really nice time and plan to go back.
