Bracco's Clam Bar

We had a wonderful experience here. We went on a holiday during lunch and it was delightful sunny day. parking was a breeze for this reasons also. By the water is exactly where we wanted to be. We were welcomed with a smile by a team of hostesses. They allowed us to pick any table at first and then the hostess recommended her favorite table. We soon realized its because a group of graceful Swans love to come visit that side of the restaurant. Kids enjoyed it and there was a calmness and serenity to having them around. They had a 2 for 1 drink special and a lobster for 2 special. Food, service, atmosphere was all excellent. Will return again soon.

Came here after a spending some hours at Jones Beach. Love it here. If you sit outdoors you get a great view. We had a variety of different appetizers and they were wonderful. They have a variety of cocktails that sound good but I had a draft and Jack Daniel's on the rocks. The drink was pricey $15 compared to the second highest I've paid which is $12 at Dorlan's in the Seaport. I didn't mind because the vibe and the view is outstanding. There was a band playing some good tunes. Watching the boats and jet skis going by plus seeing the seagulls flying was a wonderful addition. The crowd is diverse and friendly. The service is a little slow but it is a big place so it's understandable. Definitely want to go back.

After giving our name at the more popular restaurant nearby, we were walking along the historic Nautical mile when we heard the music here. We saw families dancing and were drawn to this restaurant. Well, we couldn’t leave… that’s how hooking it was! Ended up spending about three hours, mostly dancing and totally soaking in the Caribbean vibe. Our kids too loved hanging out here. The highlight of this beach bar like restaurant is truly the dance floor. Perfect balance of roomy and cozy, laid back and happening, in a flirty family friendly way (if there IS such a thing 🤣)! They have a lovely ‘beach’ with chaise lounges, a fire pit and palm trees. When the sun sets and a couple of quaint cruises pass by, it really does feel like an island ( a couple buckets of their famous rum punch will make you doubt you’re in LI). They offer hookahs with nicotine and nicotine free versions. A big shoutout to the DJ for the light up sticks, bubbles and smoke effects!! And of course the songs-I Shazammed them all!! A few things which didn’t matter to us: Menu prices on the higher side, portions just a tad bit smaller, food was good though. Drink menu doesn’t have prices on it (may be it’s a standard in these types of restaurants?). Waiting staff was cool and friendly, but sometimes difficult to reach. I wish I could relive Sat night last weekend!! Will visit again!!

The food and atmosphere were wonderful. I feel like our waitress was not very on top of making sure we were taken care of. Gratuity is automatically included. She sent more time talking to the people who were docked in the boat next to the restaurant then she did anything. But like I said, the atmosphere was great and the food was good.

Docked here on my boat for dinner. Place has a ton of outdoor seating and a live band and multiple outdoor bars. The staff is great. They have docking help, tons of waiters and staff to clear the tables. The crab cake appetizer was just ok, more like a fritter than crab cake. Could have had more crab and less filler. My wife's clam strips were excellent and my Mahi Mahi sandwich was great. French fries were perfect. I'd eat here again.
