Good Restaurants in Queens or Long Island

Hi ladies...I need your help. Since I don't get out much and my plans for this weekend got totally screwed, DH wants to take me out for a nice dinner. Can any of you recommend a nice restaurant in Queens or Long Island. If it's Queens, I would prefer maybe the Forest Hills area. Anywhere in Long Island is fine. We're willing to go as far out as Copiague or a tad bit further if it's worth it. Any type of cuisine will do. We eat pretty much anything Although we haven't done Indian or Greek yet.

Any help would be great. Also can you please indicate if reservations are needed.


Thanks

Here are some of my faves:

Joes Restaurant -Ridgewood, Italian food
Woodhaven House-Woodhaven/Rego Park area Bar/restaurant, continental
And there are quite a few in Forest Hills. I also like Dees on Metro Ave. Also, the Family Restaurant is good too!

HTH

Thank you ladies...I'm gonna start googling those now.

One of my favorite places that we save for special occasions is Prime in Huntington. It's right on the water and the food is sooo yum!

I just googled Prime and it looks AMAZING!! Their menu looks delicious.

I posted on bhb but i'll copy here too
If you want forest hills then I recommend Cabana, its cuban food and so delicious, great atmosphere too. The only thing is that they don't take reservations and gets packed there. You can wait at the bar but that part gets crowded too. I just recommend you dont go when youre really hungry and go a bit before so this way if you wait its not that bad lol.

Others in Queens, i have quite a few for Astoria and i think astoria does have the most restaurants in queens.

L'incontro-AMAZING italian food, definitely have to try but only thing is you need reservations and can be hard to get one sometimes but worth a try.

718-LOVE this place, its french and spanish fusion and food is delicious. Its very trendy and modern, the place is dimly lit with candles and decor is nice. Very cozy and romantic feeling to it too.

Taverna Kyclades- you mentioned greek and this is more of a greek seafood place, food is DELICIOUS. Not fancy more of a laid back place. However this place gets so packed and can be a line to get in. But once you have the food you'll see why

If you like sushi then I recommend Watawa

simply fondue-its a fondue restaurant in atlas park which is right by forest park in queens. The decor is cool here and the fondue is amazing

Riverview in LIC, queens( i know theres one in LI too but this one is different) its right on the water right across the street from gantry park so you have an amazing view of the ny skyline. The food is delicious too, theres outside seating but kinda windy too but inside is real nice and romantic

our favorites:

cara *** - queens
parkside - queens
grand lux - westbury
baci - westbury

If you're looking to go to Forest Hills I went to a great place the other night- called Jade. The place is so nice, great atmosphere and delicious food- thai, sushi etc... YUM!
HIghly recommend it- I want to go back!
