Located right on the border of Lynbrook & Malverne, is a tavern/pub known as the River Mill.
A casual place with a large bar & high tops & stools, should you decide to do the "eat at the bar" thing , plus a nice size dining room & an outdoor patio as well.
The menu is fun . The starters are really creative, such as their "DIPS, including shrimp scampi, buffalo chicken, crab pub cheese , in addition to their cuban sandwich on Naan bread, bavarian pretzels, swedish meatballs. and more!
They also offer "special" apps, which we chose, including the Lobster Guacamole, delicious, served with warm pita triangles, and the "Baked Clam" soup, in a crock similar to french onion, chock full of clams.
The "handheld" sandwiches are also great, as are the incredibly huge flatbreads with about 8 types to choose from ! Served on a long narrow wooden board about 2 ft' long, each can suffice as a meal including grilled chicken caprese, pork & latkas (pulled pork with a potato pancake) traditional old fashioned cheese & tomato, and a large selection of Steakhouse Burgers and very large entree salads.
The Mains - They offer specials nightly, , but the daily menu fare includes a Cappelini Crab Cake, Chicken milanese-a very large portion (a "touch" over dressed in oil & balsamic,) but fabulously done with tiniest little sweet pear tomatoes , strawberries, red onion & lots of fresh chilled arugula . They also have scallops. sword fish, a strip steak, & more.
The desserts- FANTASTIC! The skillet of hot fresh baked large chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven with vanilla ice cream was divine, and the Funnel Cake Fries served in a wire basket with dark chocolate sauce & fresh whipped cream was amazing.
The Southern Sundae with Pean pie, chocolate ice cream & bourbon syrup looked mouth watering, as did the Banana bread pudding & others.
The staff is extremely friendly & very attentive*.
A fun place for good food in a very casual fun atmosphere!
