Loved every dish from Appetizers to Dessert! Our Server Zach was so sweet and kind and was very attentive. Service was Great and with a smile. Started with A crispy Kale salad, Gnocchi and Chick pea fries, oh my goodness! Followed by The Beef Wellington. It was cooked to perfection! We had Bread pudding, Ice cream and a Cannoli for dessert! I’ve never been so stuffed. Great dining experience. Zach was amazing. Food. 100 stars! Will be back! Thank you!

I had such a good time at Snaps 2 nights ago. Our server, Kelly, was knowledgeable about the menu, patient and super friendly. My 2 friends and I had a few drinks and shared some apps which were very good. Don’t skip dessert! The churros and crème brûlée were fantastic!!!

My family had a good experience at Snaps. The food was good and the restaurant was very well kept. I will admit my husband and I started to become a little impatient looking for our server from time to time. As for parking, I saw a sign depicting there was more parking in the back, but I never saw it for myself. The front has very minimal parking. Everything else was pretty good.

They certainly give you plenty of food with your order. We had crispy dumplings, octopus, and chili wings as apps. The dumplings were my favorite. For the main course, I had the chicken milanese, and it was awesome. For dessert, we ordered the coconut bread pudding and the creme brulee (which i had to look up the spelling for). Everything was great, but my absolute favorite was the coconut bread pudding it was fire! The service was also very, very good. The only 2 slightly negative things i would say about this place are, 1. It was a little noisy in there, so not the ideal place for a romantic dinner, and 2, they could give you a little more creme brulee. The spoon hit bottom as soon as it got past the crust. Definitely not a deal breaker, and I would 100% recommend!

Food was just okay here. Person who ate Tacos said they were good but salty same thing with the shrimp dish. Good but too salty. I had the sea bass but it was grilled and on top of quinoa. Not moist. They don’t have American cheese for the children’s dishes, so neither of the two children with us could eat their food. Grilled cheese, sandwich and Burger.

Snaps “snapped”, sorry to say. So stand by for the “good, great, bad and the ugly”… Father’s Day was not how we would have liked it… The place was not even half full, we were seated right away in a back(“overflow room”) why? It took a couple inquires and over 1/2hr to get a server, not off to a good start!
Finally an apologetic server(Frank) was apparently filled in to help us. He was very thorough, took our drink order, helped out with our food choices and was well versed on the menu which was a pleasure (even though he was not dressed for the part). We had a good sampling of the drink menu and most items on the somewhat limited dinner menu( see pic). Btw, the drinks were quite unique and refreshing. Very cool drinks like the Oyster Bay Brewery summer peach, the Bacon Bourbon Mash, and the New Bond, all excellent. Unfortunately thats where it ended until the dessert drinks. Let me explain: 1st apps; lamb chops special were the thinnest I’ve ever had, not appetizing(bad). The crispy wontons recommended by Frank were nothing special much better at your local Chinese restaurant. Now the ribs were good, the grilled octopus was very good, and the chickpea fries were excellent! The Warm lobster knuckle sandwich was not all cracked up to, the Grilled shrimp was hardly grilled( too bad), the Grilled NY strip presented well(see pic) however very tough(ugly), advise to stay away, but the side of Roasted brussel sprouts were probably the best I’ve had in a long time! And I must say the burger special was great! And like I said the after dinner coffees , for example Expresso with side of sambuca and their Irish Coffee both much welcomed and just fine. So there you are…Please try this place out for yourself, keep it simple to some of the apps we were happy with and one of their burgers and you’ll be happy. Don’t forget to get a drink. Lmk how it goes.

Recomended by a friend and we loved it. Great staff, food and atmosphere. Highly recomended. Was hoping to try the crab wontons recomended to me but it was no longer on the menu. I think it was wonton but some kind of crab dumpling. I had the salmon, it was cooked and seasoned perfectly.

For more see liwinedad.blogspot.com A good three stars with interesting entrees but still needs a bit of refinement to move into the 5-star range. Snaps American Bistro has expanded but remains located on Wantagh Avenue just south of Sunrise Highway in a small group of stores on the west side. Parking spots are limited and small, both in the front and back. The greeting was prompt, and we were quickly seated at a small table for two. The room was packed, vivacious with several large tables and a bit noisy. Our cocktails arrived quickly, with the Cosmopolitan being fine and the Woodford reserve a bit over iced. As this was the beginning of restaurant week, we ordered from the restaurant week menu, and to my disappointment, they did not have the Lobster bisque. I ordered the soup of the day Chicken tortilla, which arrived table-side beautifully plated, full of flavor, and just enough spice to remind me of the soup’s traditional heritage. Jo’s Caesar salad promptly and was a generous portion but was lacking overall. The croutons were small non-descript commercial toasted bread cubes, the romaine crisp, the dressing a bit bland, and the shaved cheese mild and undistinguished. After clearing the starter plates, sometime later were asked if we wanted anything else before closing out the check, and we asked for our entrées. Our water glasses ran dry, nor were we ask if we wanted additional drinks. The mains took an exceedingly long time to arrive but well worth the wait.
Jo had the Skirt Steak, which was grilled just to the right temperature, and plated with BBQ dusted Fingerling Potatoes, Corn Salsa, and Grilled Asparagus. The sides, as well as the steak, were outstanding. I had the Salmon, lightly dusted with seasoning and grilled to perfection. The Salmon sat atop a bed of Arugula, Quinoa, Feta, Tomato, Chickpeas, Olives, and just the right amount of Green Goddess Dressing. In short, a delicious and well-balanced entree. We took home the included deserts of cheesecake (missing the Blueberry Compote) and the Chocolate Cake; both were proforma desserts. One note on the checkout process, Snaps adds on a 4% for the use of all charge or debit cards. We firmly believe that restaurants should charge a fair price for their service, but the bill at the end of the night should not read like my cell phone bill with lots of added charges at the end of the bill. A 4% surcharge for charge cards is a bit high and only reduces the tip by 4%.
Overall, if as much effort and quality went into the starters, service, and desserts as were into the mains, this could easily be a great place. As we exit COVID and reopen, we will revisit Snaps in a few months giving time for them to polish up their service and starters.
