Carlos & Gabby's

Prime Bistro ( Dining / Other ). Located at 305 Central Avenue. Prime Bistro guests are catered with the finest cuisine, impeccable attention to detail and classic service! www.primebistro.net Link

Carlos & Gabby's ( Dining / Other ). Located at 143 Washington Avenue. 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

Moca China Chinese Restaurant ( Dining / Chinese ). Located at 274 Burnside Avenue. Contemporary Asian fusion cuisine in Long Island & New York City Guided by the dynamic balance between the cherished traditions of Asian cultures with thousands of years of history and the universally human spirit of innovation that is nourished best by these great traditions. mocaus.com Link
