J Mag's Downtown Grill & Bar

Went with my family on a Sunday night.  Was not that crowded.  Service was excellent.  We have wings and mussels for an appetizer and both were excellent.
for dinner we had Salmon, a burger, Braised short rib and a salad.  All were excellent! We will be back.

Came here for amateur stand up comedy night because a friend was performing. The place got packed quickly and it was obvious that the staff was not prepared for that much traffic. I ended up walking to the bar for menus and to order my food. No utensils, the bartender had to apologize and give them to me. Food ordered were just appetizers so no biggie to compare it, hard to screw up. Giving it 3 stars based that I had a great time with the comedy acts. It was different and a good turn out for a Wednesday night.

Went here one night after they had been open for a few months. I was trying to figure out what they were going for as far as ambiance. It felt like a hybrid b/w a diner and a restaurant. The crowd was mainly older guests and a family or two - I was expecting a younger professional crowd, similar to places in Rockville Centre. The Food: good, the menu offered a lot of unexciting options but there was 1 or 2 interesting dishes and the special that day. I went for the special (seared tuna salad) and it was well prepared but outside of that I'm not sure I would have ordered anything else. It feels like this place can prepare a really solid dish but hold the menu back because their clientele wants paninis, burgers, fries, etc. On the positive side, this place offers a few craft brews on tap that you can't really get anywhere in Lynbrook.  If I go back, its probably for the beer. No complaints on the food or service though, just wish the menu was more exciting or unique.
