NORTHPORT, NY — One restaurant on Long Island is among the 100 best in the country, according to a new list from OpenTable, a popular online reservation platform.
OpenTable said it sifted through more than 11 million reviews from verified diners between Sept. 1, 2025, and Aug. 31, 2026, and looked at other signs of a restaurant's popularity, including five-star ratings, how far in advance people booked tables, how often restaurants filled up and how frequently diners searched for them.
Restaurants had to meet minimum review requirements and be in good standing to qualify. The restaurants are presented alphabetically rather than as a ranking from best to worst.
Del Vino Vineyards, at 29 Norwood Road, was among 15 New York restaurants recognized on the annual list, released Nov. 4 by the online reservation platform. The other New York honorees were located in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
The family-owned vineyard has a 4.9-star rating out of five on OpenTable. Owned by Fred and Lisa Giachetti, Del Vino offers estate wines and Italian-inspired dining on the rolling hills of Northport, with a menu featuring artisan meat and cheese boards, Margherita pizza, cauliflower pizza and shrimp dishes.
The Giachetti family's winemaking tradition dates back to the early 1800s in San Leucio, Italy, according to the vineyard's website. The family brought those traditions to Northport, where Del Vino opened in 2018 on a former apple farm.
Recent diners have praised the vineyard's food, wine and service on OpenTable.
"Amazing 100 out of 10 always food was divine and the rose always hits," one diner, Isis, wrote in a recent review.
Another diner, Alicia, praised the restaurant's staff and experience.
"Food and experience were excellent!" Alicia wrote, adding that servers Julie and Kelsey were helpful in explaining the wines and food.
The recognition marks Del Vino's sixth consecutive appearance on the annual Top 100 list. The vineyard was also named among OpenTable's Top 100 Brunch Restaurants in America earlier this year.
