“ From the moment I stepped into Fingers Crossed—set in a charmingly renovated garage space—I knew I was in for a treat. The warm, yet modern ambiance, complete with open bay doors leading to a relaxed, dog‐friendly atmosphere. ... ”
“ Had a nice lunch there Friday the 19th about 1pm, it's hard to go out to eat with an 8 month old but we were able to seat ourselves and found a nice spot in the back of the patio. Didn't catch our servers name but dude was cool and on top of things. I had asked for an orange slice for the kid, and he got it for us quickly while I realized I should've asked if they even had oranges first. Anyway it was clutch. Got the burger and fish sandwich. Both amazing, cooked perfectly and crinkle fries are a nice touch. It was 5 to add bacon to the burger which I feel is steep, like 3 and I wouldn't even notice. But it was that nice thick cut bacon and once I was eating it I figured what the hell. Just a nice spot in town and I can't wait to try the cocktails. ”
“ Great food and drinks. Craft cocktails made from locally sourced fruits. Waygu beef burger was amazing - had the Roja Burger and it was nothing short of fantastic. Battered whitefish Baja Tacos were delicious. Servers Cameron and Sam were attentive and amazing; bartender and cocktail wizard, Dan was great. We will definitely go back. ”
“ Great atmosphere and service even on a busy night (4th of July). The selection of tacos here is outstanding. Love the Elote (Mexican street corn style) tacos! Cocktails are strong and selection is unique. My variation on a Margarita with raspberry & pineapple was delicious. The nachos with beans and rice were a huge disappointment to our vegetarian friends, though. The beans were full of bacon, which was not mentioned on the menu. Our server made it right very quickly, though. ”
“ We loved this charming little restaurant we found while in Northport. We sat outside and felt right at home. It was beautifully set up and my husband enjoyed learning about the different flowers they had. We loved the complementary basket of chips and dill dip before our food arrived. The service was great, the food was delicious, and we hope to return someday. ”
“ Great place to warm up on a cold winter day with tasty food and good selection of beer! The pork nachos were super tasty and so was the ham and Swiss on rye. Fair prices for food and drink and the staff were kind and funny. ”
“ A nice place with good food. I like how they converted this literal garage into an eatery. Creative and cool. I even did some under the table dishwasher stuff for a day to experience it and help out just because. But overall it was a great experience from the bar to the food. It has since changed ownership to someone else but I still say it's good eatin'. ”
“ Picked up takeout on a cold day to sit outside at the Mitten. Ordered the smashburger with an extra patty, smoked wings with the dry rub, and the holiday turkey sandwich- everything was amazing, perfectly portioned. Took less than 15 minutes to pickup. We’ll definitely be back. ”
