Prohibition Port Jefferson Reviews (321)

Always good to stop by for some of their seasonal cocktails. Great date spot, friendly staff. Their beer list is good and I love their creativity with the cocktails and decorations. If you're planning on having dinner during peak times, make sure to call first. This is a small spot and gets busy easily.

Came here for date night on a Thursday with no reservation and had no issue getting a table around dinner time. Quaint little bar/restaurant that has a cozy feeling to it. I wouldn't necessarily say it has a prohibition/speakeasy vibe like the name would imply, but I enjoyed the atmosphere nonetheless. Decided to have a few drinks and split some appetizers. Starting with drinks, we tried their hibiscus gin, blueberry margarita, and the smoked old fashioned. The former two were the real standouts for me and excellent refreshing summer drinks on a hot day! The old fashioned is nothing to scoff at either though, they do theirs right on a drink that's easy to screw up. Moving on to food, we split the Mediterranean platter and an order of Buffalo wings. The platter gives a nice assortment of dips and veggies that are easily shareable, but don't expect the finest Greek quality around, still tasty though. The wings though were great, good portion and the wings felt substantial, could tell they were better quality and the sauce was as quintessential buffalo as it gets, exactly what we were looking for. The rest of the menu looked good too and I'd be eager to come back to try some more items any time. Service was good, checked in on us frequently and didn't rush us either which is always appreciated. Parking can be a little difficult but there are some available lots nearby, but just make sure that you pay the meters!

The wait wasn't too long and we got the option to sit by the window which was nice since it was warm out. Our server was friendly and very attentive! We ordered the deep fried burrito and the bbq grilled. The deep fried burrito is huge but so good you'll definitely finish it, maybe. The Bbq grilled cheese was great, a nice balance and the bbq didn't over power the cheese. Will absolutely be back.

Cozy, fun, small restaurant with bar. They don't take reservations but you can leave your name on wait list and get a call or text when a table is ready for you. We were lucky to snag a couple bar seats from people who were seated. Had a couple drinks at bar. Bartender was super friendly and attentive. They have a great specialty drink menu. This isn't a place to come to if you're counting calories, because just about everything is decadent or deep fried. And it's soooo worth it! We started with the sticky spicy ribs and they were so flavorful and fall off the bone juicy! Fried pickles were perfectly crisped with an awesome dipping sauce. Our dinners were all amazing! I went with the steak sandwich. Steak is marinated, tender and delicious. With cheese on garlic toast. It was so generous I could only finish half. Subbed mashed potatoes instead of fries, and they were fabulous! Creamy with a tasty brown gravy. My husband got the deep fried burito and loved it as well. We came with another couple, they also loved the food. My one friend was especially impressed by a lavender drink they had on the menu. She doesn't like tequila so asked for Tito's instead. They happily accommodated the request, and it was delicious! Generous pours on mixed drinks. My husband had a Jack & ginger that was equal parts. The way you want it! Our server was super nice and also very attentive. We were fortunate to get this cozy table that all by itself like a nook in the back of restaurant. We felt like we had our own private party. It was just luck of the draw. It's a pretty small establishment, so expect to wait. It's worth it, I promise! Can't wait to come back!

I haven't been here in a minute, and during my last visit it was earlier in the day so I ordered off the brunch menu. This time, I went with a group of 6 for an earlier dinner and some drinks. The service we received from our hostess and server team (Chloe and Emmy) was great - from the quick support and updates we received as we waited for a table at the bar - to the attentiveness to our orders. Two of us in the group had food allergies which we were asked about thoughtfully and then provided with easy side substitutions as needed. It's always great to go to a place with options where the server knows the specifics about how items are prepared - especially when it comes to cross contamination. For my drink, I got the Blueberry Lavender Margarita which was a 10/10. For food, I got the "That's My Jam Burger" on a gluten free bun with a side salad. The burger was cooked well and the fig jam and prosciutto combo was delicious. Will totally be back here in the future!
