Reviews for West End Cafe in Carle Place, NY
Limited choice for vegetarians and not suitable for vegans, but the dishes I had were quite good. The chef's specialty, roasted... cauliflower with dried cranberries and whipped feta creme would have been quite tasty had it not been overly charred. My entréewas a lemon ricotta ravioli in a buerre blanc which was flavorful but heavier than anticipated. The star of the evening waswithout a doubt the key lime pie, which was amongst the best I've ever had. The graham cracker base did come apart but thatdidn't really make a difference in the end. I would return just to have that dessert again and am eager to try their chocolatebourbon pecan pie when it's back on the menu. Read more
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The service was incredible, the food was great and so was the atmosphere! I’m not... a very “adventurous” eater, so I kept it simple with a chicken Caesar salad, but it was great! The chicken was thick,flavorful and juicy — not like your typical chicken you get elsewhere where it’s thin, burnt and has no flavor. My serverDomenic was great — friendly, professional, attentive and fast. The entire staff was great also. For reference on who thestaff was, I was there on 4/2/22 @ 4:30PM. This was my first time there and I’ll DEFINITELY be back! Read more

We had dinner here and the place is a hidden restaurant in the myst of closed stores and businesses. We went for the twilight 3... course dinner for a set price. For starters we had the goat cheese beet salad, meatballs and the burrata. They were all good andonly complaint was the beets tasted like they were out of a can and the metal flavor lingeres on your pallet. For the main wehad shrimp with risotto, flat iron steak and the rack of lamb from the regular dinner menu. Those dishes were done right andcooked to perfection. The meats were fresh and juicy with sides perfectly paired. My little one order the sliders which wasplump and juicy as well. The desserts were good but could be of better quality. The place is not for bargain diners, our billtopped $200 and now I understand why its called Manhattan style dining. Overall a good place for special occasions and not aplace you wanna pay and dine weekly unless you have the Benjamins. Read more
Food here was fantastic. Definitely a good buy if you go for the price fixe menu. Had the shrimp risotto...it was so good!... Drinks are a bit pricy. You will never leave there hungry. Read more
Everything about West End Cafe was exceptional. The hospitality, service, atmosphere, cleanliness, and most importantly, the... food!!! The herb biscuit was a great way to start the meal. Charred Octopus and Arugula salad was well-balanced. The Steak andPenne entree was delicious, a perfect blend of carbs and protein with a delicious sauce! Read more
Very nice place. Reasonably priced. Good service. Food was good. Burger was meaty, juicy, and mushroom was delicious. Chicken... parm was good. Bread was crispy with sun-dried tomatoe with warm fresh tomatoe inside with fragrant basil. Also comes with sidesand extra tomato, lettuce and red onions. They use very good ingredients. Mango Ice Tea was good and fancy looking. Willdefintely come back! Read more
Menu is OK, though it a bit pricey (seems that's the issue everywhere lately). Dining area is very nice and attention was paid... to acoustics making for easy conversation. Give it a try. Read more
