"I have noticed an increasing number of 1-star reviews, and after reading them, I understand why. Many customers have complained about the rude staff at this restaurant. My fiancée and I moved to New York a few years ago and have always enjoyed having breakfast at Bagel Express occasionally. The owner is very nice. However, when my fiancée went to pick up two dozen bagels for our Thanksgiving gathering, she encountered a negative experience. Despite arriving early to ensure there were enough bagels, the guy behind the counter gave her a nasty look and made a sarcastic comment to another customer about "out of towners." Although my fiancée handled the situation politely, it was still hurtful....

I stopped by quickly on my way to the Port Jefferson ferry. This restaurant is amazing with delicious bagels (I tried an everything bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese) and fast service. There is plenty of indoor seating and some outdoor seating as well. The bathroom was clean too.

Menu - 35 options

I had to give this restaurant a one-star rating. The bagels are incredibly sweet, especially when eaten plain. They seem to be much higher in calories than typical bagels, tasting more like a dessert than a bread. They leave a noticeable artificial sweetener aftertaste. They may resemble bagels in appearance, but they definitely do not taste like traditional bagels.

Good to great sandwiches (depending on who makes it). Sometimes different employees can make the same sandwich a 3.5/5 good or a 5/5 home run. Home fries are the best around. My issue is not the food but the flow. When you walk in you don 't really knowwhere to go, and goddam is it hard to ask during peak times. Lots of people stand around on the wrong lines and hold up thesmooth flow of business in the morning. A carpet with an arrow saying 'order here ' and a sign for 'Pick Ups ONLY ' wouldmore than fix the people flow. It does get CROWDED so if you go I would suggest wearing a mask since we 're coming up on fluseason. Honestly this place could probably franchise extremely nicely with a fe...

"I was looking forward to trying Mirabelle again after a bad experience we had when they were at their old location years ago. I had friends from out of town in and we were looking for an historical venue to go along with a local revolutionary war event in Setauket and The Three Village Inn fit the bill. Unfortunately, I was unimpressed overall with our experience. The waiter was terrific, no problem there. We asked for the Tavern portion of the restaurant, hoping for that old Colonial Tavern feel, which it partially delivered. It was mostly modern, not a bad thing, but not completely what we had in mind. We had some tasty appetizers. A Charcuterie Board that was good and a Butter Board that was also tasty. The crusty bread they served with it was delicious. We also had the raw oysters; small but good. Had we stopped there for drinks and apps, it might have been a good meal, but we all continued on with our entrees and that where things turned out to be disappointing. Part of the problem is the regular menu is not very interesting and for some reason they had no “Farm to Table” specials on this particular Saturday night. I had the Milanese style Pork Chop with a salad topping, that was tasteless. My wife and one of our friends had the signature Duck. For a French Restaurant we were expecting something delicious. Again, it lacked any kind of flavor other than the chutney that was served with it. It had no sauce, Au Jus, or crispy skin. All in call not, worth ordering again. My friends had the chicken which looked a little better, but no one was raving about it. I don’t know what the rest of the limited menu is like, but nothing else sounded really good. I have heard that the Tavern Burger is good, but for the price, I can get a good burger anywhere. Suffice it to say, this experience is not going to make us run back there any time soon."
