"The staff is great, very helpful and nice. It was an older hotel and tile in bathrooms was stained, and kind of dirty. This hotel is close to JFK Airport but not anything else."

Moca China Chinese Restaurant

Carlos & Gabby's ( Dining / Other ). Located at 143 Washington Avenue, Lawrence, 2 miles from the center of Far Rockaway. In 2006, Carlos & Gabby's opened their original Lawrence location - a modest shop on Rockaway Turnpike near the Long Island Rail Road crossing. We managed to combine a delicious and extensive menu of Mexican favorites, fused with a handful of American classics... not to mention all those great sauces (Tangy BBQ, Avocado Ranch, Creamy Caesar, Mmmm!) and to top it off, everything is Kosher! In fact, it has now become a landmark on the map of Kosher eateries in the Kosher restaurant capital of suburbia. carlosandgabbys.com Link
