Parlor House Grill — Restaurant in Town of Islip

Oh im so disappointed. I moved to the area years ago and this place has been on my radar for quite some time. I have to say, the interior is absolutely beautiful, and welcoming. The waitress was very friendly and the specials sounded delish. The menu had so many options and I wanted to try it all. I ordered The seafood bisque soup. Unfortunately, it was very bland. Not much taste to it aside from a big cream flavor, which was fine, but then the one or two small chunks of lobster in it were hard and overcooked. For my meal, I ordered the Greek burger. It came with a side of very bland undercooked fries that had not been seasoned at all. They were super mushy and flavorless. The burger was terrible. It reminded me of a flavorless potato pancake with a very light hint of zucchini. The side of Tzatziki sauce again, lacked flavor. It tasted like mayonnaise with oregano. The other person that came with me ordered the taco salad. The shell itself was pretty good, but the taco meat was just plain ground beef in what tasted like lunch lady acidic bland tomato puree, served with Thousand Island. How strange is that? You can get more flavor at a Chipotle or Moe’s.

I really wanted to like this place, but the food was just not great at all. I’m not a picky eater by far (I’ll even eat at Applebee’s if a friend drags me there). Honestly go to Five Points Café down the street, they have very much...

The absolute worst experience I have ever been to in my life. Staff was miserable from the jump when we walked in.

Appetizers were decent at best, French onion soup might’ve been the worst I ever had, as well as the wings. Only good appetizer was barely the mozz sticks.

After the appetizers, we have a little tiny critter going across our table that completely killed the appetite of everyone, as you can see, all of our meals are still there.

After that, a ant was found in one of our waters and this was the last straw.

Instead of the management/owners being sympathetic towards us for THEIR restaurant being like this, they were very rude and harsh towards us.

This place is extremely dirty and bug infested and I will strongly recommend no one ever going here.

We leave when we are told we are free to go without paying, then the owner follows behind me , recording me; telling his phone we are leaving without paying. Telling us we “planted the bugs” and “we smell like weed”

Never in my life had a situation that get like this and as you can see by the picture, some of us didn’t even touch our dinners as we completely lost our appetite , and a couple had a few bites.

I strongly recommend no one go to this dirty...

I do have to say this place can easily be 4 maybe 5 stars. It was a Tuesday and we went there for my birthday. It seemed slow but picked up as the night went on. What put me off was the octopus special. It had pieces that was good and others with a fishy aftertaste and the sauce it was in was very strong garlic flavor. The seemed to the same as the steak tips app though it worked together. That was really good, why I think this place can be 4 stars. My wife had the shrimp and scallions over a bed of pasta. Again the shrimp was good but the scallops where dry and the pasta wasn't in the description and wasn't dressed with anything. Plus my wife's not a pasta eater. My main was a simple chicken fettuccine alfredo. The chicken didn't have seasoning and the sauce was overly reduced. The I noticed My dish was dirty and can feel residue on the underside of the dish and grease prints on the edge of the plate. They simply just changed plates when the owner I think saw the dirty dish. I lost my appetite. In short our meal wasn't consistent some of the food was really good and others missed the mark. The waitress she was excellent happy and always made sure we had...
