A Delicious Week of Local Dining
Long Island Restaurant Week is back and tastier than ever, running from Sunday, April 28 through Saturday, May 4. This tri-annual culinary celebration is designed to drive business to local restaurants and give food lovers the chance to enjoy prix-fixe lunch and dinner menus at unbeatable prices.
Participating restaurants will offer a two-course lunch for $24 and/or three-course dinners priced at $29, $39, or $46, depending on the establishment. While the dinner deal is available every night the restaurant is open, on Saturdays it’s only offered until 7 p.m.—unless otherwise noted.
If you’re dining out in Bay Shore or Babylon, here are some standout spots to visit during the week. Gather your friends, make a reservation, and show your support for local restaurants that keep our communities thriving.
