Best Restaurants for a Quick Bite in Merrick

Foodad service was great. Tony was very welcoming.

Food & service were both excellent. I started with the house blend baked meatballs, then shrimp risotto for my entree. Perfectly cooked nice big shrimp. Very flavorful risotto. For dessert I had the warm apple crisp which comes with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. That was delicious.

The prime rib was outstanding, rivaled a steakhouse portion and quality without a steakhouse price!!! The halibut was equally delicious and the accompaniments on both entrees were generous and tasty. I’d like to mention even their complimentary bruschetta and bread selections (served by staff) is a nice touch to round out a complete meal. As always, service and attention to details was fabulous. Bridget added to the experience with her professional manner and quick service. Lino is always there with a smile and welcoming attitude which is why we enjoy returning and recommending Davenport Press. There are many options for going out near Garden City but at times other restaurants are inconsistent in service, food quality and preparation, here we are never disappointed. Thank you for a great meal & service. Laura F.

Everyone who knows me knows this is 100% my favorite spot and has been for years. The food is consistently spectacular and the wine choices unique while still being accessible (and delish). We were excited to try their Oktoberfest menu and ordered all four items that were offered. Every single one was fantastic and our guests agreed. Plus no one makes vegetables more delicious and we are NOT vegetarians. Looking forward to whatever fall menu is coming up next. The staff is also great and know their stuff. Can’t recommend this neighborhood gem enough.

We ate at the bar and our food and service were great. Hidden gem.
