Established for 18 years, San Marco - now a 2002 Practical Gourmet 4-star rated restaurant - stands out in Long Island’s highly competitive restaurant scene. First anointed with a “Very Good” rating from Newsday and The New York Times, the restaurant offers outstanding Northern Italian cuisine.
For Italian owner Orlando Andreani a chat with
customers is like a stroll in the park - full of natural warmth and genuine hospitality. Also a chef, Andreani’s knowledge of food and wine is impeccable. His talents meld with partner and Chef José Rodrigus’ extensive European based experience from France and Italy.
The romantic dining room and greenhouse combines the physical attractiveness of space with intimacy. Mirrored brick arches, arresting yet muted oil paintings, and wall sconces that cast soft, indirect lighting adds to this perception. But to the professional tuxedoed waitstaff, who are friendly and attentive, food is paramount. You will marvel at the appetizer cart as it’s rolled to your table. Aside from daily specials, no less than eight appetizers are displayed for your choosing. Gourmet delicacies that are perfectly prepared include Beef Wellington with Black Truffle Sauce, and homemade Fettuccine in a Sherry-Cream Sauce. Made to order exotic dishes require 48 hours notice. The irresistible desserts are homemade. You can delight in the excellent flan, and tiramisu, among others. Wines and ports from all over the world have been carefully selected and the superb wine list has won the 1995 through 2004 Wine Spectator “Award of Excellence.” Further awards include the Award for Presentation, Service, and Menu Selection from Long Island Business News plus rave reviews.
