Whit's End

Marinara pizza is one of the best across the five boroughs

I have two favorite restaurants in the world and this is one of them. The highest levels of fine dining don’t compare to the quality and innovation of the food. And getting to enjoy it in a low key, cozy, neighborhood environment just really takes it to the next level. Whit is a genius. We are so lucky.

They have the best quality food in Rockaway, hands down. My new favorite spot.

Incredible service, amazing food, uniquely decorated….10/10 will be back

The most unique dining experience you could hope to have in this part of the World. The menu is reinvented daily by Master creator "Whit" and is usually a combination of daily catch fish and his awesome pizza. I have eaten here several times, and the atmosphere is always a little different. From grunge rock music to roaming magicians, there is always something new at Whits. They have developed quite a local following, and deservedly so. I recommend this once in a lifetime experience to everybody.

I just attended a private event at Whit's End that was exceptional! It was an exceptionally wet, rainy day and the staff and management went above and beyond to assure that the restaurant, and enclosed outdoor patio, were sparkling and beautifully appointed with personalized menus, lighting, candles, music, flowers, etc. - and squeegeed dry! Everyone at Whit's End were warm, welcoming, and caring. The food and service scored an 11 on a 10-scale. Appetizers included pickled herring, velvety pate, crunchy tuna rolls, bluefish spread, mushrooms tarts, and more. All delicious and the fish, freshly caught. Entrees were beautifully plated and absolutely fantastic. Whit, Sylvie and everyone on staff, my sincere thanks and deepest admiration for making this an evening to be remembered! My husband and I are already planning our next dinner date at Whit's End. This Rockaway Beach restaurant is a destination dining spot definitely worth visiting!

Eating here is a straight up divine experience. Amazing food, incredible vibes. Anytime I bring friends here, they rave about the food for days after and they can’t wait to come back. I drive a distance to visit cause it’s worth it, I feel at home here. This spot is everything.
