Shana and Ron have run the New Moon Cafe for nearly 30 years, and it's a low-key, friendly place with a family feel. The restaurant is in a former general store that dates to 1903, and it has a homey feel. Rustic decor is accented with antique mirrors and photographs. It can seat 95. The cuisine points southwest from East Quogue, and nachos made with real cheese, guacamole and sour cream are a popular appetizer. The mesquite-smoked brisket of beef costs $15.95 and comes with potato salad, Texas pinto beans and vegetable of the day. The same sides come with the country pork ribs, for $16.95. The restaurant makes its own barbecue sauce and offers homemade desserts. A prix fixe special is offered nightly until 7 p.m. You get any barbecue dinner, soup and dessert for $19.95. There is a Sunday brunch and a children's menu. New Moon has a full bar with a big selection of Blue Point Brewery beers.
