Bar Clementine 553 Main Street, Islip, NY 11751

"I ordered the Shut Up And Dance cocktail, which I did not care for due to the lime. It was a little too tart for me. I prefer the Clementine Cocktail, which I had during a previous visit. I also ordered the Mussels, which was an appetizer Special for the day. It was just okay because it did not taste as fresh as the Clam appetizer that I had during a previous visit. The Butterscotch Sundae had just a touch of butterscotch. I did not like it because it was overloaded with pretzels. I like pretzels but not in a sundae. Nevertheless, I am giving Bar Clementine five stars because I have dined here multiple times and usually like what I order because there are many options on the menu to select from."

"After weeks of wanting to go here we made a Sunday res for our anniversary. I love the decor and vibe of bar clementine. Our starter drinks were good, though I was expecting more watermelon flavor in mine. The tartar had soy sauce in it which made it very salty but the mushroom strudel was very good, it was more of a spring roll wrapper than a strudel, the duck was very tender and very good. I continued with the appetizer wave thinking they’d be smaller portions- the frito misto was larger than I thought which was fine and it was good- basic friend calamari but with zucchini and other extras not traditionally found in fried calamari. The goat cheese toast with caramelized onions was very good. My bf got the pork chop which I thought was great, the glaze was what got me, but after asking twice for it to be wrapped up, we never received it to take home :( we asked once from the waitress then a food runner came out and we asked her. The leftover pork chop never returned to us. For dessert we got the pb and chocolate soufflé which was more of a lava cake, soufflés are more airy and spongy than dense but irregardless it was very good. The clementine drink is bar far the best we had, tastes like an orange creamsicle! Highly recommend that one."

"Smaller than expected so make a reservation! Service was great & the soups were delicious. Don’t skip on the tomato soup!! The shrimp fettuccine was flavorful, but not as expected. It didn’t have a creamy base it had more of an oil type of base but still delicious. (We should have read the menu better) The steak frites were outstanding, and the herb fries were just as good. All of the entrées were a nice size portions as well. Their desserts were very good as well. Bar area is a great size! Nicely decorated & overall a great vibe. I would go back just for the tomato soup, it really was delicious."

"Love this new little bar! We’ve already come here twice since they opened. The clementine cocktail is amazing. Nice and light with the egg whites on top and not too sweet. Love the taste of the clementine juice. The food is very tasty, we loved the escargot and the mushroom arancini. Great atmosphere and decor from plates to glassware and amazing service!"

"Gorgeous restaurant! Had a lovely meal at the bar with Caitlin. She made us laugh, was very knowledgeable about the menu, and was able to accommodate my allergies. The food was incredible. (I brought my own candles and napkins for a birthday, but she was all to happy to help us with them)"
