E.B. Elliot's
ContemporarySeafood, http://www.restaurant.com/microsite.asp?rid=352418, Contemporary, Seafood
23 Woodcleft Ave., Freeport, NY, 11520 US
|
|
Any fisherman on the Nautical Mile can tell you that the ground E.B. Elliot's is built on was once home to the famous Poop Deck bar. Owned by Edna Beitterick, and her faithful bartender and caretaker Joe Elliot, the Poop Deck was a favorite haunt for local anglers to make merry and share fish stories. During its heyday, in the 50's and 60's, many celebrities frequented the Poop Deck before or after a day out on the best charter fishing boats around... All berthed at Edna's dock. It was not uncommon to see personalities such as Yul Brenner, Pat Boone and Guy Lombardo, just to name a few, shouldered up to the bar alongside local captains and mates. For forty some odd years, the Poop Deck bar was the place to quench your thirst and exaggerate on the size of the fish caught that day.
Somewhere along the way, a friendship was formed between Edna and two young mates by the names of Michael Danon and Michael Gross. As they got older the two Mikes would com to own and operate the Captain Lou Fleet sailing daily from the Poop Deck dock. One day, while out catching numerous (and enormous, as they will tell you) fluke, Mike and Mike spotted what looked like a small wooden raft afloat upon the waves. Upon closer inspections, they noted in their captain's log that the raft appeared to carry an Irish looking fellow sitting atop a keg of stout. Being generally friendly and always thirsty, they approached the raft and met Peter Clavin. Peter, it seemed, had sailed all the way from Ireland with the dreams of opening up a restaurant and a bar. After sharing in a few pints, the three men decided to become partners in this endeavor. E.B. Elliot's was born. In keeping with the traditions that Edna Beitterick and Joe Elliot set forth, Michael, Michael, and Peter opened E.B. Elliot's, a place to eat, drink and discuss the catch of the day.

Retro Lounge & Grill

10 Brookyln Ave, Freeport, NY, 11520 US

Retro is a renovation of Freeport's star-filled, show biz history. Located at 10 Brooklyn Ave, Al B. White opened this location in 1939, nicknaming it the Town Lodge. Many still remember it as the most popular place around.
Here, new dances of the times like Lindy Hop and Suzie Q and Peckin' could be learned. Mr. Al B. White was an incredible entertainer and host; he was an extremely successful Vaudevillian. From the early 1880s until the early 1930s Vaudeville was a theatrical genre of variety entertainment. Performances would generally consist of separate, unrelated acts grouped together. Musicians, comedians, magicians, dancers, acrobats and trained animals often came together to delight audiences everywhere. Al B white would hold nightly dance contests for patrons here and although he was owner, he sang to his guests all the time. At seventy years old, he could still move you with a ballad.
A great deal of local Vaudevillians later went on to TV and film.. Retro Lounge and Grill clearly carries a wealth of local memories and will forever remind us of why Vaudeville is known as "The heart of American show business." Join us for an unforgettable meal in an unforgettable place filled with the magic that keeps Vaudeville close to our hearts.
Nilka Hendricks a chef from our own long island backyard, became a house hold name after a 6 week stint on the popular 'Hells Kitchen' reality show on fox and has signed on to become the executive chef at the "new" Retro Lounge & grill in Freeport, NY.
After a tremendously successful guest appearance to promote her appearance on 'Hell's Kitchen', Retro ownership convinced the popular Nilka to join the retro staff permanently.
Nilka has designed a diverse menu featuring a blend of international fusion cuisine including our most popular dish a grilled jerk ribeye steak and coconut crusted king crab legs.

Frank's concept is to be casual, but fine dining establishment with a reputation for serving the best quality and freshest foods money can buy. At a first glance our prices may seem high, but we offer a very good value for the money because of the high quality and large portions of the foods we serve.Part of our mystique is the homey atmosphere, theatrical lighting and youthful feelings inspired by the crayons and butcher paper table coverings. The artwork that surrounds the dining room comes right off the tables and has been drawn by our customers. The artwork is always entertaining and usually very creative. We are also known for our big round tables that can accommodate large parties and which promote a fun party atmosphere.
We have many signature items that customers come from all over the country to try. Our marinated Romanian Skirt Steak, our 44oz Porterhouse Steak, and a Roasted Country Chicken are just a few of them. We have a great reputation for our Prime Aged meats such as our New York Strip Steak, Marinated Strip Steak and our 26oz Bone-In Strip Steak. Our meats are hand selected by our own butcher who gives us the best center-cut meats from most choice prime aged beef for which we pay a premium price for. This is a big part of the value we offer to our guests. We also have a signature steak sauce that is so loved by the customers that we are considering packaging and marketing it to the general public. You can't discuss Frank's Steaks without mentioning the Prime Rib of Beef which is ordered in the kitchen by calling out "One Monster Cut" because of its size.
The Frank's Steaks logo is always followed by the quote "We Aint Just Steaks" and for good reason.
