Never was here before, and my father-in-law brought us out for some food and drinks. We were blown away by the food. The steak dinners were absolutely amazing and I can honestly say they live up to any good steakhouse you can think of if not better, their burgers were huge And offered a wide variety of toppings and bun types. The drinks were cold and the atmosphere was very upbeat and positive there’s not one negative thing I can think of to say about this place and I highly recommend it to anybody that’s looking for a great steak. Better than the Westshore Inn hands-down.

Great little bar with good burgers and excellent service. I stopped for a beer and burger and it did not disappoint. On a toasted english muffin the burger was cooked perfectly to order. Bar tender was great knew when to refill and when to give me space definitely have to go back…

Wow, what a gem! The atmosphere is perfect — cozy, lively, and just feels right. Service was outstanding, super friendly and quick. Food was solid and tasty, though not quite perfect. Overall loved the experience — highly recommend!

I have been coming here for years and never left a review. This is the place to be. Not your typical bar, the food is hands down the absolute best with the most flavor. You are treated like family here. The bartenders are always friendly, Bobby Phil & Ronnie are the best!!!!! So are the waiters, Frankie & Maryanne. The owners Griff & his son Devin run the best establishment on Staten Island. Love them all!!! An absolute gem, I hope Griffs stays open for 100 years!

Surprisingly enjoyed this place.
Thank you Lisa for serving us you were so nice and friendly 🙂 I’d love to come back again because of it and the food are tasty!
I pass by this place thinking it’s not for kids since it looked like a bar.
But saw a comment recently that it has kids menu so thinking to come back again with kids 🙂 looks like there’s more good food to try

From the outside Griff’s Place looks like an ordinary neighborhood bar. It’s off the beaten path so it’s easy to drive by. Don’t, you’ll be missing out. Big time.
The food is excellent. We ordered 3 appetizers for the table, hot wings, potato skins & fried ravioli. I’m not a hot wings guy but the others were very tasty. Had the stuffed shells as a main course, sometimes risky in a bar, but they were top notch. Other main courses were a Chicken Cordon Bleu wrap, a burger, & Broccoli Rabe Quesadilla. The steak is said to be outrageous!!
The Atmosphere was super, & Frank, our server was both friendly and informative. Give them a shot, I think you will be very pleased.

Had a wonderful meal there with my girlfriend. I got around to trying their famous burger and it was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend people to go there and try it. Along with the dessert, which was a chocolate peanut butter pie. Great atmosphere and energy because the Giants were playing. Marianne and Christian were very accommodating and friendly. Phil made good drink as well.

Best hamburger I’ve ever had. Amazing food and tons of choices. Cute, chill atmosphere if you’re on a date or just hanging with friends. Definitely would recommend to anyone. The bar also stays open until 5am and the bartenders are so friendly and awesome.

Griff’s is a Staten Island institution. For a neighborhood bar, the food is excellent. Plenty of TVs and open EARLY. Amazing.

Took the ferry to Staten Island to go for a bike ride along the FDR Boardwalk and Beach. Decided to look for somewhere bike friendly to get something to eat. A quick check of Google maps and I found Griff’s Place in New Dorp. It was a short ride from the beach bike path and had a back patio where I could park my bike.
All I can say is ‘Wow, what a find’.
Went inside and I was greeted by welcoming staff and the owner sitting at the end of the bar on a quiet Saturday afternoon. I ordered a cheeseburger and a beer and the owner chuckled. I asked what was funny and all he said was “you’ll see when you get the burger and good luck riding back to the ferry.”
Well, the burger arrived and I saw why he was laughing. It was huge! With that he laughed again and bought me a fresh beer. The burger was absolutely delicious, the beers were cold and the staff and a few regulars were chatty and friendly.
I did finish my burger out of respect and I did manage to ride back to the ferry to get home. I also found a nice place to stop for a bite and a beer on an afternoon bike ride along the beach on Staten Island. I will return to Griff’s the next time I am riding my bike in that stretch of NYC.
