Tried this place with my youngest son. The falafel salad was amazing. You choose what toppings you want. I tried all the toppings except the carrot salad. It was so filling! The veggies were super fresh and instead of avocado I asked for babaganosh which was also amazing. My son had a juice with kale, lemon, spinach and apple juice and it was excellent! The garlic sauce dressing was so good. The tahini sauce was delicious too!
this could also be called a mall food court but lets not…
love the name
and it has its own dedicated entrance so you do not have to walk through the mall to get there
plus you will see some lovely outside eating to enjoy
the seating choices are plentiful
including round tables
I kid you not its been written that round tables make for a more harmonious and happy dining experience in your home(yes I do indeed have a round table in my home) …so glad the choice is here too
booths and yes even a few couches
the ceiling is super high
the whole space feels so open and bright even at night
big bright signs easy to read menus
each restaurant / food place has its own feel
I would go here just to eat
so far my favorite is Melt Shop
with the many choices it will keep everyone happy dine on what you like while dining together
I am not writing reviews for the restaurants …just the atmosphere
and I like it
When I see this food court I want to grab the Simon Mall manager of Smith Haven Mall (Where I live) and bring him here. Why does Nassau County get all the good stuff?? (Whining to the tune of Marsha Marsha Marsha)
They really made it nice, there is an outside level and as one of my buddies told me, you can drive up through the parking garage and walk in? How nice is that??!?!
I'm still making my way around to the new places. I love the fact a few eateries are from NYC and testing the waters in "The Dining District" here in Garden City.
It only make sense. We all work in NYC and want to have the same restaurants on the weekends.
I would "LOVE" to see a coffee house or even better, Dough Doughnuts here!
Amy's Bread? Num Pang Sandwich Shop?
Ah, a guy can dream. I'm happy how things are progressing.
My favorite mall keeps getting better 🙂
Everyone kept telling me to go to Roosevelt Field simply for the new dining district. I do my best to stay away from this mall since it's so large and crowded but I did need to check out a few stores so while I was there, I decided to try out the new food options. The food court used to be in the center of the second floor, now it's still on the second floor but pushed off to the side. There are a ton of new options to choose from. Food ranging from mac and cheese to Japanese to brick oven pizza to vegetarian to baked potatoes to Thai and then back to the typical food court favorites such as Wendy's.
The signage doesn't help much with how to find it but CS was nice enough to show me where to go and also gave me a few coupons to use. I ended up going with Maoz Vegetarian because I wanted a falafel. The food here is delicious and fresh, definitely a step up from the former food court. It's also brightly-lit with a big outdoor seating area. The outdoor spot has heating lamps for cool days and shade for warmer ones. RF (the Simon Group, really) did a great job with this overhaul!
Huge improvement over the previous food court. Everything from the layout, the seating, the food choices, architecture, all the way down to the many Charging Stations (for those who need a little extra juice in their phone or planning to stick around to update their blog) make this new Dining District enjoyable.
They have plenty of food options and even outdoor seating for when it's nice out. Definitely recommend for one of those days out shopping and you don't want to go to a neighboring restaurant.
Considering what the food court looked like and offered in the past, this place did a complete 180. First and foremost, the space is huge and very accommodating space/seat-wise. Good-bye cramped seating in the rotund food court and hello spacious tables/chairs, high tables… you get the deal. The new Dining District (which I think is a fun, inviting name) is bright, cheery and offers PLENTY more options than was used to be.
I haven't had the time to try ALL the vendors, but from the few I've visited… all good experiences. The Little Beet, Melt Shop, Tres Carnes and MOAZ are highly recommended. Skip, the Wendy's people. Expand your horizons!
Lots of trendy eats, popular chains and even some healthy options! When I'm shopping in RF mall, I can look forward to a decent meal now. Lovin' the Dining District.
Before discussing food, the appearance of Roosevelt Field's food court is an outstanding upgrade. It's much more spacious, clean, and doesn't have the fried smelly of the archaic food court. There is also an outdoor seating area with plentiful space. The area is no longer a congested hub of shoppers trying to cut through the center of the meal along with hungry patrons scouting out seating.
In regards to food, we tried Potopia and Maoz Vegeterian. Both were a refreshing and slightly more healthy imprecations of fast food. At the former, we tried a spicy shrimp potato bowl. It was a dish I'd never expect to find at the old food court. At the latter, we tried a falafel bowl with other beans, herbs, and vegetables.
All in all, the new dining district provides an all-around better experience for eating at Roosevelt field.
This new area is beautiful. They did a really good job with this redesign. I love how they got some soft couch is for you to sit on and you don't feel like you're on top of other people when you're sitting at the tables. I like the new restaurants that came in. But I worry about how this is going to be at Christmas. I think there may not be enough room for everyone and then people are going to fight people.
