Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Sea Cliff

We had a reservation for 4 people and were shown quickly to our table. Beautifully decorated, clean restaurant with a view of the water. The service was outstanding. The server reviewed the specials and answered all our questions. He and other staff came around to the table several times to ensure that we had everything we needed. The menu had many options to choose from and the food was delicious. Will definitely go back again.

We asked for seating up upstairs and glad we did! So much quieter up there. We could talk across the table without having to say “what?” all the time! The food was really good-our party had the artichoke salad (very different,very good), the short rib pappadelle with homemade noodles(melt in your mouth short ribs), the ricotta cavatelli (good, but over-garlicky, I was told) and chicken Milanese (so good). Spilt the peanut butter crunch cake— more a mousse than a cake imho, but a tasty end to a lovely meal. We ordered the California Merlot, the reasonably priced one(lol) and it opened up deliciously. Oh, I cannot forget the service: from the young man at valet parking, the women hostess & coat check, waiter and bus boys— all lovely and thoughtful. It was a delightful evening!

We sat at the bar and the bartender couldn’t have been more attentive. The service was top notch. The food was very good. The octopus could have been tenderized a little more. Burrata was supposed to have heirloom tomatoes, but came with just regular Roma tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. I get it, heirlooms are out of season, but don’t keep it on the menu. Gnocchi was very flavorful but a little gritty. No espresso for the end of the meal so our bartender made espresso martinis. They were excellent. Overall, great date night. We will return.

Wow! Amazing dining experience!!! If you haven’t been to Season in Glen Head you are missing out! The food, service & ambience were all top notch! We learned that Chef Joe Marchisotta is a world renowned Chef who has worked at all the top restaurants in NYC. He was so kind to come out from the kitchen to check on our table that everything was to our liking and has a wonderful personality! We will be back very soon!

Always a pleasurable experience dining at The Atlas. Have returned many times. Especially enjoy the Wed. evening live music. The wait staff is always warm and inviting, and very attentive. Beautiful ambiance as well. Just go!
