Get your reservations. Del Vino Vineyards and The Northport Hotel recently earned coveted spots on OpenTable’s Top 100 Brunch Restaurants in the United States for 2026; remarkably, they are the only two restaurants on Long Island to receive this honor – and they sit just 1.8 miles apart.
The OpenTable list was compiled from an analysis of over 10 million diner reviews, alongside diner ratings, reservation demand and the percentage of five-star reviews. Only restaurants meeting a minimum threshold of brunch reviews and offering consistent Sunday brunch service were considered.
Neighbors in distance, partners in excellence
What makes this recognition especially meaningful is the relationship between the two establishments. Rather than compete, Del Vino Vineyards and The Northport Hotel have long served as complements to one another – drawing visitors to the area, supporting the local dining community and collectively raising the bar for what Long Island hospitality can look like.
Guests often visit both destinations on the same day, beginning with a leisurely brunch at one and an afternoon wine experience or dinner at the other. Their proximity makes it easy for diners to experience the two establishments in a single outing.
