Del's Bar & Grill

As a little reminder, I was the outsider today. So I don't want to send the wrong message to a local celebrated Bar N Grill. Let me start by saying that Pine Hollow Road is a very busy street, with vehicles traveling at speeds in both directions, so be careful crossing. DEL'S BAR N GRILL does not have a parking lot. Parking on the streets are free except on Fridays which is limited by time so read the signs (pictures enclosed). I gave this establishment 3 stars on the food that I had. I am not representing the whole menu. *I will say I had the most delicious crunchy juicy buffalo drum sticks I have ever tasted in one sitting and that was for starters. I then ordered the Snouders Burger with fries. The burger was a bit greasy and unappetizing, the fries were thin and over cooked. Fountain drinks like my ginger ale and my friend's coke lacked sweetness so order without ice if you can. Service was very attentive and polite. Tables opposite the bar sit high and there are a enough to satisfy a large crowd. There also is a Juke Box. Today was fairly empty inside when I arrived. The TVs were a little loud with WHEEL OF FORTUNE not sports. Separate Men's and ladies bathroom clean and presentable with strong electric hand dryer and almond smelling hand soap. ATM on the wall in bathroom location. Pricing was reasonable. All in all I would have to say that even though I wouldn't eat here again, to a local, it still looks like a good watering hole with friendly conversations. The Review Guru Long Island NY

Cool bar. Cold beer. Tasty burgers. Bartender was friendly I think he name was Laura. Met some friends and a some appetizers, burgers and beers. Some people came in to watch the Islander game. Nice crowd. Would go back. Food was all delicious. Tried the wings and the Potato skins as an app. I believe my burger was “The Mikey”

Where everybody knows your name! Happy Hour is a must have some wings, quesadia and maybe a better burger than smash burger. Get the Rough-rider.

Tried this place based on a recommendation from a local. Super cozy interior that is a small bar with some pub tables for you to eat and get waitress service. We tried the chicken quesadilla for an appetizer that we were both super impressed. The Teddy's boys burger (dbl cheese, bacon and egg) was really good. Would definitely come back if in the area. Prices were super affordable too!

Have been here only 100 times or more, always great service, GREAT burgers and always a great time!

The food was very good, the bar tender was also the server. There were many local people sitting at the bar and they were all taking with each other. Very homey and comforting.

when I first made this review roughly about two weeks ago, I was very disheartened. After the owner commented on the original review, I decided that I really should give Del’s a second chance because I do believe in second chances Since my initial negative interaction with the employee over the phone. I have in total ordered takeout from Del’s roughly about three times since then. My honest review is five stars. Not only was the food fantastic each time that I ordered it, but the employee that answered the phone was incredibly pleasant and friendly as well as when I walked in to get my food, that friendly demeanor transferred from over the phone to in person as well. If the owner did in fact, speak to the employee who was rude to me over the phone, I appreciate him doing the right thing and I’m glad that I spoke up to say something as well that the information resulted in a change. So if anybody is looking to check out Del’s, I highly recommend it for the service as well as the food, and should you ever come across a problem or an experience that is negative. I highly recommend reaching out to the owner directly as it appears, he is one that truly strives to resolve any issues and create a good experience every time and then give them a second chance. It is very much worth it.

Been there multiple times never a disappointment. Food is amazing and tasty. Service is always with a smile and feels like home to me now.

Cozy welcoming local hangout with great burgers. Not sure if it's always this way, but the bartender also took our food order from our table. He was friendly, efficient and kept checking on us while tending bar. Looks like they do a lot of takeout as well. Looking forward to coming back!

Was just there for a surprise birthday party. The wings and hot pretzels were amazing. Service is excellent. Nice neighborhood pub with great food.

Best bar on the North Shore of LI. Great food, beer and character. Very friendly staff with local insight.

Great bar and grill. Very friendly bartender/waitress and the food especially the cheeseburger was delicious. Good fries too. All reasonably priced.

It's Friday and my wife and I wanted to eat somewhere different. Our friends agreed that we wanted to go to a local place. We selected Del's Bar and Grill in Oyster Bay, NY. We had eaten there before and were pleased with the food and serve. Tonight, we arrived for an early dinner. The bar was rocking and locals were enjoying each other's company. We sat down by the window and our waitress, Andrea, met us with a big smile. We talked and joked around with her. It was like visiting an old friend's home. We ordered our drinks and she came back quickly. I was surprised because she was bartending and serving the tables! She was delightful and talked with us and made us all feel special. We ordered a dozen Buffalo wings with Del's special BBQ sauce as our appetizer. They were amazing and we loved them. Three of us ordered the Angus 8 oz. burger with onion rings and one had the Rum Runners wrap with onion rings. Rum Runners wrap was marinated grilled skirt steak, sautéed mushrooms and chipotle sauce. It looked delicious and my friend loved it. The menu was full of references to Teddy Roosevelt and different buildings in Oyster Bay (e.g., Rum Runners, disco bar back in the 70s, Snouder's a building on Main St., the Baymen and Teddy's Boys). We took our time and enjoyed our friend's company. There was no rush at all. When we left Andrea smiled and thanked us. When we walked out we met some more friends, who asked how the food was, we all said it was great! Del's is a place to relax and enjoy the people you are with. If you're in Oyster Bay and want good food, great serve and a relaxing atmosphere, you should try Del's Bar and Grill. I know you will have a great experience. Stay healthy and be well!

Passing thru, looked like a fun place to be! For sure the place to be! Happy , fun crowd and good food! French Onion Soup, Thai Chili Wings and a marinated skirt steak quesadilla- all delish! Drop in, you will not be disappointed

Stopped in to this place for a quick bite . My grandmother used to live in Bayville so to say I've passed by this spot many many times is an understatement! That being said , place was pretty lively for an early Saturday afternoon ., I got the last seat at the bar and was greeted by Lisa who was super lovely and nice . I decided on the grilled chicken sandwich with melted mozzarella, roasted peppers and balsamic glaze ., delicious! Paired perfectly with shoestring French fries that were crispy and hot . So good ! Seems like a friendly , neighborhood place with a lot of regulars. Will definitely be back !

Best OB bar hands down, best food around with prices lower than anywhere else in town. But they still allow ugly girls in so I give it a 9/10

Service is great, the ambiance is even better and the food is a 12/10. It's clean, the food is freshly made and it absolutely amazing.

Great neighborhood bar. Burgers are really good. Friendly local restaurant. This is always a go to for a quick bite.

This place has a seriously good burger Mine had 2 4oz patties cooked on a flat top smothered with cheese, shaved lettuce, tomatoes, burger relish ( wow) and crispy onions A FANTASTIC BURGER and the fries are damn tasty as well All this for 11 dollars. Add to this a super friendly atmosphere A wining combination Everyone should give this place a shot

Some of the best food you would never believe it. Love coming here for a burger they are delicious.

Great local sports bar with good comfort food and soups. Welcoming staff. Everyone meets as strangers and leaves as family.

Great place. Fun and very friendly. Food is really good. Burgers are probably the best you'll ever have. Make sure you try the wings, they are fantastic!!

Where everybody knows your name !!! Renovated, cozy and welcoming. Always have a game on and always a smile from the staff. Love the French Onion soup. Simple beers on tap, old school not a place for a craft brew enthusiast to find something new, but who knows, down the line...lol. Great burgers, salad. Parking can be a bit tricky so leave a few extra minutes to secure a spot and be careful crossing on this well traveled, local road.

This place is legit. Good chili, good wings, nice beer, friendly people. Yet to try burgers but they looked pretty serious. A bar lovers kind of bar.

The best kept secret in Oyster Bay for those who prefer paper napkins to cloth and aren't in a rush. Locals love this place for casual /inexpensive and generous eats and cold beer/drinks. We also order for pick up often; nothing comes close to a Del's burger in the area. If you enter, grab a seat (you don't have to wait for an invitation-this is a friendly joint with little front of the house help especially at off hours) and get ready for the best burgers served with fresh thin-cut amazing fries (included). I also heartily recommend getting an order is the chicken nuggets for your table; they're actually deliciously battered crisp chicken tenders (served with honey mustard: I ask for their ranch or Chipotle sauce instead). French onion soup is delish and not overly salty at all as it is in so many other bars. Their wings are top-notch, and if you ask for spicy expect SPICY! Steak tidbits on garlic bread is also a winner. Enjoy!

Weird vibe. Walked in to grab a bite to eat while visiting the water front. Seemed like a decent spot from the outside. No one greeted us when we walked in though. No one offered to seat us. It's like a dive bar kinda vibe but for locals I guess, Kinda like "sit wherever and figure it out". Guess we were expected to sit by the bar but we tried to get the bartenders attention and that didn't work. Kinda felt like we bothered them by waking in at 4:30 in the afternoon which was unusual to me. Seems like a reasonable enough hour to expect walk ins. We had to walk out of there. Went down the road and found a much better spot. This spot is cool I guess if you're a 50 to 60 something year old and you like to pound bud lights at 4:30 in the afternoon and like to complain about the humidity on a hot summer day.

Do you like dive bars with good food? Here ya go!!! The burgers here are touted as being super duper top notch. I will give them a "good" but not "great" rating. Fries were good. I had a steak sandwich which was quite excellent. Would definitely go back for that one. Friendly local crowd at the bar in varying stages of drunkenness. Nice beer selection and very friendly staff. All in all, I like the place. I will return and try other items on their menu. Remember......this isn't a sit down fancy restaurant. This is a classic dive bar. And I liked it.

We use to love visiting thus bar but tonight was the worst experience I have had in my entire life. It took over an hour and a half for my daughter to receive her chicken dinner. After waiting 50 minutes (when 30 -40 minutes was the estimated time the staff said it would take for the chicken to cook) and watching 4 tables of people around us who arrived after us, receive their food we asked about our food. He was told the chIcken would be another 20-30 minutes. My husband and I received our food 15 minutes later and then after another 10 minutes when she still did not receive her food I asked if we could at least get her fries but I was told it would be right out. We waited another 10 minutes and it was finally brought out. Not once did any of the staff members apologize for the delay- they just stated they had a lot of tickets. One of the blondish waitresses was then extremely rude when we voiced our displeasure in our wait time and said she would bring us a box for my daughters food since we were obviously in such a hurry to get somewhere and that we needed to leave. My daughter had not even eaten her dinner at this point as it was still hot from the fryer and she ended up in tears. Shame on that waitress! We will not be back.

Didnt even get in the door. Arrived on Long Island late. Called to see if they were still serving. The girl that answered the phone said "I have no idea what time we are serving until." Ugh.....can't imagine what the service is like......

This bar is filthy. It tries to hide behind the term "dive bar" which is fine, but please be careful and think twice about ordering food from their kitchen. The conditions are filthy - it was so bad I took the time to file a complaint with Nassau County Health Program's office as well as write this review, so hopefully others are warned. I am normally a lazy person / willing to write things off but went out of my way to type this out because of how bad my experience with this place was. Now that I have rambled about the number one reason you should not go here (health & food safety concerns) and just say the service was also poor, and their atmosphere is terrible. Stay away.

Perfect dive with awesome burgers and ice cold beers. Bartenders and cooks are all friendly. Don't be discouraged by the outside. Burgers are amazing! Great prices too

When I heard they finally reopened one of my favorite spots in Oyster Bay, I had to know could it live up to the hype. All the talk was this place is amazing, so of course I needed to investigate. I got into my car and made the trip to get answers myself. "Del's" has the same curb side parking as before. Looking at the place from the outside I knew they meant business. Going inside I had to stop and fight back tears, this place was well worth the wait; what a spectacular upgrade job they did. It is under new ownership and they set the bar high with excellence. They wanted to set their business apart from the old one. I feel they did a bang up job. Talking to Brian the bartender I see they even did a great job hiring good help. The old staff was wonderful, but like I said they are heading in a new direction. Brian talked to everyone and did great getting drinks; my brothers only issue is they raised the prices a bit on beers. I understand, they spent all that money on renovations, they have to get it back someway. I was denied a burger days ago, but that wasn't the case today. I ordered a "Rough Rider" and while I waited I chowed down on some soft pretzels. The only issue I had was the cheese for the soft pretzel was too watery. I mean come on, I'm a man, creator of fire! I want some thick gooey cheese! (Did I mention I love CHEESE). But at least the Burger lived up to the hype. That burger made me forget about the watery cheese. The cheddar on the burger was sharp the bacon plentiful, and the onions added that little bit that I need to make it all work. I was please with my food. The place has a great atmosphere, great bartender, and good food, it's safe to say I will be back. "Del's would have gotten 5 stars if the cheese was thick. I'm a tough critic when it comes to my Cheese.

They have really good mozzarella sticks and the atmosphere is great. Totally worth coming in. Why do they make me write long reviews. At this point I have nothing else to say but still want to get my review out into the world. Finally jeez.

The food was actually really good but the place is small and really not exciting. Not much to do except stare at the TV.

absolute garbage. never would i recommend this place, no matter if you're going there for the burgers or the night life. my finance and i would go for a few drinks and the bartenders are super inattentive and rude. the bartender are perfectly okay with getting into brawls with customers. not sure who the owner is but they should be shamed by the employees they keep and the lack of security, even on busy nights.

I had gone here after reading a rave review in Newsday. Since I lived in the area, I figured it was worth exploring. I passed it the first time- it's kind of a small and unassuming place and since it's on the main road going through Oyster Bay, you might be driving so fast you can miss it if you don't know where it is. I was impressed with how clean the place was for a town pub as well as the quality of the food. Not your typical bar food, you can tell there's some care put into the preparation. The only thing I was disappointed in were the fries- they were a bit on the greasy side, but the sandwich was great and the service was too. You felt like your patronage was appreciated, and for that I'll be going back.

Awesome food. Cozy and clean. All the staff are awesome. Burgers are awesome. And plenty of TVs for watching sports.

First off, Mike, the owner is an absolute gem! He is so kind and takes great pride in his business and the food there. He wanted me to be more adventurous with their burger menu but I am a burger purist. I went with a bacon cheeseburger with some delicious fresh cut shoe string fries and Pickles on the side. The burger and fries were PERFECTLY cooked. The flavor of the burger was unreal. Complimented by the very crispy bacon and gooey american cheese. The burger patty had crispy crunchy edges and caramelization that make me drool when i think about it. The bun was even great quality.Napkins and ketchup in the bag (many restaurants forget so this is a plus for me!) I can't wait to go back and try more of the menu. Highly impressed with the meal I had. Thanks Mike and the Del's staff!

This place is like a hidden gem! We have eaten there numerous times and have never been disappointed. Their wings are fantastic and they have a very homey environment. We will definitely continue to visit.

The quality of the food here is great. Best wings in Oyster Bay (slightly crispy with great sauce). It's very casual, but in a good way. Great place to watch the game. Prices are very competitive for the area. This place deserves your business.

We were in town for a concert and were looking for somewhere to grab a snack and beer beforehand. We stumbled upon Del's and almost didn't even bother going to the concert! The atmosphere was warm and cozy, the owner was bartending and was very friendly and inviting. It's clearly a local hangout and all of the locals were really friendly too! Good variety of beers on top and in bottles. Only ended up having the warm pretzel app for food but it was very good as well. If I find myself in Oyster Bag again, I'll absolutely return to Del's!

To be honest I wasn't expecting much. I've lived in the area 10 years and never ventured in. I saw on Facebook it was under new ownership. My friend and I were looking for somewhere super casual and tried out Del's. The bartender was awesome-- super nice and welcoming. The food was really good, as well. We will definitely be back.

Amazing burgers, great wings, cold beers. Dive bar at its finest. Great place to watch a game.

Cute place with Great food, great drinks and awesome bartender. It's just what oysterbay needed.

Love going to Del's to unwind after a long day. The bartenders are amazing and the food is delicious. I'm always greeted with a smile. Great place! Great food!

I love this place so much it is so nice to just go and eat dinner I go there at least 3-4 times with my daughter the food is amazing and the staff is so nice.

Way overpriced and the staff is rude, not to mention there was a hair in my food. It's small and cramped. If you're not a regular/local, they won't care about you so don't bother going.
