I get something different every time I go here and have never been disappointed. I especially enjoy bringing friends and family who've never been, and I have always been thanked for sharing this gem!

Delicious! Your all american spot that really does have something for everyone. And the food is actually good! Flatbreads, pasta, hamburgers, even the kids were happy with their meals. We had mozzarella sticks, mac and cheese, a thai flatbread and a burger and everything was cooked perfectly. The portion sizes were great, slightly bigger than your average which is so hard to find these days...Good food, good prices, and great service? Karvers has it all. Our food came pretty fast, staff were attentive and we were able to get in and out in a reasonable amount of time. Definitely recommend making reservations. I didn't think it'd fill up fast but as soon as we sat down, it was table after table being filled. Can't go wrong and we can't wait to come back soon!

Love this place I generally love coming here for the pulled pork bbq Mac and cheese. Not sure if they're using different cheese now but it's not as good as it used to be, but I actually got a burger this time with a side order of Mac the burgers was very good. Boyfriend got a turkey burger he really enjoyed as well. Our waitress was very attentive and I love the ambience of the dining room

What an awesome place for a first date. Service was spot on and food was delicious. We sat at the bar so we could have the football game in background. Drinks were perfect and the hospitality was great.

Why did it take me so long to try this place? I really, really like it. Saturday night, Labor Day weekend and the place was jammed and all for the right reasons. Great food, solid service & a relaxing ambiance (for a place packed with families. Had the "angry mussels" as an app (one of their daily specials and awesome). Plump mussels in a spicy marinara sauce with crispy toast to dunk till your hearts content...and we did). The rib eye steak was juicy, flavorful and cooked to a perfect medium rare. Honestly, one of the best that I've had in a while and if you look at this price point (around $36 I believe), it's a tasty, tasty bargain. The BBQ ribs were okay with a nice KC-style sauce, though a bit over done (the meat should never fall off the bone). But, like the rib eye, flavorful. All things said, I can't wait to go back for more. Plenty of parking (and the way this place packs out, they need it!), seem to take all cards and a perfect place for large groups, family dinners or a nice night out. ...Did I mention those mussels?

When my brother visited my our Dad on Long Island, he told me of a really good restaurant that they dined in called Karvers. It was a mental bookmark to try this local restaurant when I returned to Long Island. Throughout the week that I visited my Dad in May 2024, driving we'd see that the Karvers parking lot was always busy. This supported my brother's glowing words for the establishment.    It was on my last day of the May 2024 trip that I suggested dining here before flying out of Islip. Because, time was running out on Long Island soil, I was more into focusing attention on my dad and thinking of the pending flight.    When we walked into Karvers, the Hostess immediately welcomed us. The fine service lasted throughout the meal. We sat at a table near the door. The booth was comfortable with views of the sports playing on TV. As far as ambiance, it felt like I was in a combination pub and modern restaurant with a warehouse ceiling.    We arrived at lunch when the lunch specials were still active. The pizza burger lunch special drew my attention. I am a fan of the pizza burger which brings me back to my childhood enjoying them in Long Island diners. The simple fact is that in 2024, they are less common on restaurant menus. Especially in Las Vegas where I was about to fly to.   The pizza burger lunch special cost $19. It included soup of the day or house salad with a bucket of fries or homemade potato chips, and cole slaw. The bottomless Coke that I ordered was an additional cost to the meal. The soup of the day was lemon with orzo soup. Being a soup lover, I enjoyed it. But! Not as much as the pizza burger and fries. The pizza burger stuffed between the warm ciabetta buns tasted just the way I like my hamburgers. It was complimented by mozzarella cheese, marinara sauce, lettuce, onions, and tomato. I felt that the lettuce, onions, and tomato helped elevate the pizza burger to four stars. With just the right amount of marinara sauce, a stickiness issue was nonexistent. The fries were flavorful and warm. During lunch, before the place is happening in the later hours, the environment is conducive to conversations. To extend my May 2024 trip with my dad, I ordered a cup of coffee. In similar fashion to the meal, it was really good.    Continuing the glowing words for Karvers and the consistently busy parking lot showing it's popularity, I would like to add my three cents in. I give Karvers Four Stars.

Karvers is one of my go-to spots for a sit-down meal with family and friends. From salads and sandwiches to wraps and burgers to seafood and quesadillas, there's something for everyone on the menu. My favorite dish is the pan-seared salmon with mashed potatoes and vegetables -- it's incredibly tasty. The waitstaff has always been friendly and lively, and there's a little patio outside you can dine on when the weather's nice. Every time I've been to Karvers (which is a lot, and usually for dinner), it's crowded. That says a lot about the restaurant itself, but keep that in mind before visiting. Highly recommend!

Great local restaurant with a very expanded menu. Our waiter was one of the most professional I've met & the place is super cozy. The food is all around good, not gourmet or extra special but very good food at fair prices.

Pretty good visit the other day. Came here on a whim and was excited to hear there was no wait as I know they get very busy. For our appetizer, we ordered fried calamari. Looked/tasted slightly different than in he past but still very good and crispy. For my entree, I ordered penne a la vodka while my husband ordered the risotto. Again, looked/tasted a little different than last time (if you want to compare prior pics) but it was decent. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his risotto with mushrooms.
