Long Island Restaurants

Cheap eats


A good deal isn't about how much you spend but rather about the kind of quality your money buys.

At some of these Long Island restaurants, recently reviewd by Newsday food critic Joan Reminick, there are no tablecloths, no bar, and only paper plates. But that doesn't matter to the savvy diner in search of the real culinary deal. We're here to help you in this all-consuming quest.
