    Food is outstanding as usual. The shrimp in Diablo sauce was perfectly spiced . My wife had the mariscada and that too was cooked perfectly. Sangria 71 in Island Park is in our regular rotation of restaurants. They are also very cautious for people with allergies. Gluten and dairy free options are available for those needing this. It’s a great local restaurant and I highly recommend it

    I have always enjoyed this restaurant. They are offering a great deal for a weekend in September in the Hamptons. $45 3 course prix fix. Excellent choices on the menu and every weekend the menu changes. Our food was delicious. Good portion sizes. The Apple Tart Tatin was excellent. And as an added bonus, they gave us a baguette when we left. The restaurant was full. I wish more restaurants would offer great deals like this, especially on the weekends. I hope Armin and Judy continue their weekend prix fix throughout the winter.
