LONG ISLAND RESTAURANT WEEK: Dine Huntington Restaurant Week ended last Friday, but there’s good news if you didn’t get to all the restaurants on your list. The fourth annual Long Island Restaurant Week (www.longislandrestaurantweek.com) runs Sunday, Nov. 1 through Sunday, Nov. 8. For eight days, Sunday to Sunday, all participating restaurants offer a three-course prix fixe for $24.95 all night, except Saturday when it is offered only until 7 p.m. Each restaurant offers their own unique menu and 221 restaurants Islandwide are participating. The list is impressive and sure to include some of your favorites, but get in the spirit and try someplace new. Participating Huntington restaurants are: Grasso’s in Cold Spring Harbor; Abel Conklins, Besito, Bin 56, Bistro Cassis, Black and Blue Seafood Chophouse, Café Buenos Aires, The Clubhouse, Crew Kitchen, Honu Kitchen and Cocktails, Jonathan’s Ristorante, Mac’s Steakhouse, Osteria Da Nino, Osteria Toscana, Porto Vivo, Red Restaurant and Rookies Sports Club in Huntington; City Café and Legal Sea Foods in Huntington Station; Four Food Studio and Cocktail Salon in Melville; Ruvo Restaurant in Greenlawn; and Ciao Baby, Jackson’s Restaurant, Maize Cantina and Red Dish Grille & Martini Bar in Commack. Ludlow Bistro in Deer Park is close enough to the border, so we’ll include it on our list. Long Island Restaurant Week is presented by WordHampton Public Relations, the creators of Hamptons Restaurant Week. The event is sponsored in part by Zrii. A $200 gift certificate to Mirabelle at Three Village Inn awaits the winner of the Biggest Long Island Restaurant Week Fan contest (runners up will receive gift certificates to other notable Long Island restaurants). Enter online at www.DishingonDining.com by midnight on Sunday, Nov. 8.
