"You can learn a great deal about someone, especially a restaurateur, by the ketchups, condiments, and oils they choose. Owner Jitendra scored exceptionally high on my scale for high-quality, health-conscious food in numerous ways. For starters, his salmon pita is so exceptional that my husband insisted we stop in on our way to the hotel. Despite the kitchen nearing closing time and it being a relatively quiet night, Jitendra graciously agreed to prepare the salmon pita for us. It was beyond delightful—truly unforgettable. The dish was served with a homemade wasabi-aioli that dripped over the lettuce and tomato on the sturdy, delicious pita. Absolutely fantastic. I eyed the ketchup bottles for our side of French fries, which we ordered in addition to the included coleslaw—a generously portioned, delicious slaw without mayo. Remarkably, the ketchup was Trader Joe's organic, with NO HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP. Amazing. This choice alone speaks volumes about the quality of food at this place. I forgot to ask Jitendra what kind of oil he uses in the fryer—hoping it’s not canola. I’ll update once I find out. However, I suspect he uses a better oil, given the rest of the offerings. Our cashier, Caroline, was lovely and helpful. This will definitely be our go-to spot in Port Jefferson."
