Every restaurant has a story, but some are woven into the fabric of a community.

Meet Jerry Dicecco, the chef and owner behind Jerry and The Mermaid, where family tradition, hard work, and heart come together on the Riverhead waterfront.

From growing up in the industry to leading through the challenges of COVID and beyond, Jerry’s story is a reminder of what local businesses truly mean to a community.

If you’ve ever dined there, you know—it’s more than a meal.

Downtown Riverhead is a destination and Ben & Jerry’s is part of the reason why. 🍦 For Steve and Angela Siliato, this business isn’t just about ice cream, it’s about creating something meaningful for their family and their community.

“Downtown isn’t just a place you pass through on the way to the North Fork or the Hamptons… it’s a destination.”

From fresh waffle cones to scoop shop exclusives, their East Main Street shop is all about bringing people together—one scoop at a time. Stop by for fresh waffle cones, exclusive flavors, and even treats for your pup. 🐾

📍 87 E. Main Street
