What is Worth Choosing: A Deep Dive into the Menu

Choosing a meal at BRENDOS can be a delightful challenge given the sheer number of bold and tempting options. The menu is divided into major categories of heroes, cheesesteaks, and comfort foods, each with their own standout creations.

For an Authentic Experience: The Cheesesteaks section is a must-explore, featuring options made with USDA Prime Ribeye. The Philly ($17.00), with ribeye, cheese wiz, caramelized onions, and roasted peppers, is a classic for a reason. But for those looking for a local twist, the New Yorker ($17.00) adds provolone, sauteed mushrooms, and garlic aioli, offering a richer, Long Island take on the classic. The Chicken Cheesesteak ($14.00) is the perfect chicken counterpart, loaded with chopped grilled chicken, cheese wiz, caramelized onions, and roasted peppers.

For the Adventurous Eater: The menu's truly unique creations are where BRENDOS shines. The legendary TrainWreck ($23.00) hero, a monstrous creation of ribeye, bacon, chicken fingers, fries, mozzarella, cheese wiz, and gravy on toasted garlic bread, is the ultimate comfort food indulgence and a signature item. In the Fried & Grilled Chicken Cutlet Heroes section, the MAC ATTACK ($20.00) is a hero stuffed with fried chicken, bacon, and Mac N Cheese—a testament to Long Island's love for big, inventive heroes.

For Chicken Hero Enthusiasts: The selection of Fried & Grilled Chicken Cutlet Heroes is unparalleled. Favorites include the Vodka Chick ($14.00) with vodka sauce, mozzarella, and parmesan on toasted garlic bread, and the Tommy Boy ($15.00), a crispy cutlet with bacon, cheddar, crispy onion straws, and BBQ sauce. The Hot Nashville Chick ($14.00) caters to the spicy crowd with hot Nashville oil, cole slaw, and pickles.

For NYC Flavor: The Chopped Cheese heroes pay homage to New York City's street food scene. The Harlem World (The Original) ($15.00) is the classic—chopped burger, American cheese, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, and 1000 islands dressing on a hero. The Brooklyns Finest ($15.00) swaps in provolone, roasted peppers, and garlic aioli for a different borough's touch.

For Sides and Snacks: Don't miss out on the extensive "Fries, Mac & Snack" options. The BRENDOS Fries ($15.00) are a meal themselves, topped with ribeye, cheese wiz, provolone, and caramelized onions. The Regular Mac n Cheese ($9.00) and Onion Rings ($7.00) are perfect, delicious sides to any hero.

For the Italian Crowd: Try the imported Italian Meats heroes like The Godfather ($18.00) or the Clemenza ($16.00) for a traditional, high-quality Italian-American deli experience.

With large portions, fresh ingredients, and a menu that’s constantly innovating, BRENDOS delivers an unforgettable dining experience, proving why it's a staple in the Williston Park and greater Long Island food scene.
