JoeB and Lindsey were outstanding servers. They were friendly, courteous and very attentive. They made excellent meal recommendations and the food was seasoned and cooked to perfection! The hostess who sat us was great too along with the lady who brought the food out to our table.

Wish we had gone someplace else for dinner. The restaurant was fairly empty, yet the service was terrible. The food was mediocre and one dish had to be sent back because the fish was inedible.

We had a delightful evening at South Fork I for the first time had the shrimp and grits, which I absolutely loved. My husband had the salmon which he said he’d order again and we brought a friend who had never been ordered the meatloaf and thought it was exceptional can’t wait to go back.

Same day reservation, easy to reserve, lots of parking, server sat us right away. We were in a group so I got to try a lot of stuff. I liked all of the foods I tried: bread in a basket, calamari, arancini balls, beet salad, scallops, and bread pudding. They had a lot of cocktail and drink options. I liked the Long Island theme. I really appreciated that they didn’t rush us to leave because I was with business guests.

The food was excellent, as usual. Service was also well handled - timely and pleasant. My recurring complaint - which Southfork has never addressed - is the wine included with the early bird dining special is limited to 3 dry wines. So I am always frustrated at having to pay more EVEN for a non-alcoholic beverage in lieu of the wine. There are numerous inexpensive sweeter wines - Moscato, Zinfindel, Riesling, etc. that they should be willing to accomodate the taste of all their customers.
