The Patio Bar by David Burke — Restaurant in Town of Hempstead

This was my 3rd time attending the rosé soirée! It’s a fantastic summer night out & so much fun. It gets better every year. The raffles added excitement to the evening. The DJ created a fun vibe. All the different picture spots were absolutely adorable. The watermelon rosé margarita was divine! We loved the welcome lemonade mocktail, samplings of all the different rosés, & the hors d'oeuvres being passed that were perfect pairings with the wine samplings. The bruschetta station this year was amazing, & the chefs behind the seafood, grill, sushi & guac stations were so friendly. In fact all the staff were super friendly & helpful. German, Olivia, Kalina, Brittany, Chef Anup & everyone else (I couldn’t get everyone’s name) thank you for being so attentive to us! Your smiles show you love to do what you do and that makes you so rare. Well done for another...

Seeing this had multiple 5 star reviews I had to come check out what this scene was all about. Patio Bar actually describes this place perfectly, it's like sitting on your grandparents patio listening to Sirius XM, only there are business meeting guests there. As small as their cocktail menu is, we found that they were out of multiple ingredients to make multiple drinks. The drinks I wanted to try were not available when we were there. We ended up having a mint julep, a spicy margarita, and some frosé, all were very good. We ordered the daily ceviche which was also fantastic. The staff were very nice but maybe there could be a dedicated table server? This was a line up at the bar, order food and drink, and find a seat...

This is a very unique spot that is truly an oasis right in the middle of Garden City! Outrageous Cocktails and small plates by Chef David Burke on a gorgeous summer day, what more is there!!! We tried the surf and turf dumplings and Pastrami Smoked Salmon Carpaccio which are too yummy to put into words. A true mixture of flavors that you would never assume go together but do so well that you can tell Chef Burke really has more than just a passion for food and pairing flavors. Exceptional all around; a must on the list of swanky outdoor bars to hit while travelling to...
