About the Restaurants

Every conceivable cuisine is served at restaurants, cafés, pubs, and diners across Long Island, but fresh seafood is the most notable regional specialty. It's not uncommon for chefs to prepare delectable dishes in the evening using seafood caught that same morning. A trend toward using organic foods and fresh local produce has increased the quality of restaurant meals here. If you enjoy good wine with your meal, try a Long Island homegrown selection. On the North and South forks many restaurants change their schedules depending on the time of year, so it's always a good idea to call ahead in the off-season.
