Mark and Lynn are in the mood for Kingston's in West Sayville...






 Lynn and I found ourselves somewhat exhausted with our usual dining choices.   So, we went against our own grain and parked ourselves at the very rowdy but somehow very charming restaurant on the Great South Bay of Long Island in West Sayville called Kingson's.



Kingston's has a great, unpretentious vibe, attentive, young and attractive service from the hostess on down. Our food, however was a mixed bag.  My oysters on the half shell were perfect, my calamari was good.  Lynn's broiled seafood was forgettable, however.  We had some of the same experience with our libations; Lynn had a dirty martini that was very good, but my standard issue martini was just alright.  And, for such a casual place (with plastic forks, for example) our bill was a little on the high side.


Having said that, our experience at the place was very pleasant.  Definitely a place that you have to be in the mood for but a good place to change up our summer food routine...
