If you haven’t been to JTI’s American Kitchen & Bar in Brightwaters, you need to go. I’ve been there for dinner and it was great. This past Saturday, 3/2/24, I hosted my daughter’s baby shower there. I wanted something different than your usual shower food (chicken, steak or pasta choices, etc). The menu Chef Nick put together was amazing and the service was over the top! Thank you Chef Nick, Nicole, Stephanie and David!
We had a cocktail hour with a cold display and several passed hot items including a French onion soup shot which was my favorite. My guests were shocked when we moved from the cocktail area to the dining room and then they were served a tasting menu of 3 courses of 3 different items. All delicious!
The venue itself is so comfortable and charming. I also want to point out how clean the restaurant and bathrooms were.
Truly if you haven’t been to JTI’s, you’re missing out!

Stopped into JTI's American Kitchen and Bar on a date last week. I can honestly say that I was blown away. The service, food and craft cocktails were incredible. They have a great atmosphere all around with a pleasant staff to match. If you're looking to have a date night, or take the family out... this is the place. They have great sharable plates and plenty of different dishes/drinks to keep just about anyone happy. Highly recommended.

Wow.
We ate here last night and were blown away. This is probably the best new restaurant we've found on long Island in more than a year. The menu was interesting and offered original takes on great American dishes. The service was perfect and our server couldn't have done any better. We arrived at 6pm on a Friday and after letting them know we had a reservation, we were seated in the back room which was lovely and quiet, a nice feature since the restaurant filled up by 7pm.
The attention to detail in their service and decor carries over to the plating as well. Our food was presented smartly and interestingly and not just piled.
If we had to pick one thing that was a mistake, it would be that we couldn't make up our minds on the menu and each ordered an appetizer and entree. Considering the portion sizes, we're not planning to eat again until we dig into the leftovers for dinner tonight.
