1st Long Island Restaurant Week Of 2021 To Kick Off Next Week

LONG ISLAND, NY — The first Long Island Restaurant Week of the new year will be returning next week but with a focus on takeout this time. The event will take place from Sunday, January 24 through Sunday, January 31.

Participating restaurants will offer a $25, $35 or a $42 three-course prix fixe menu, available for takeout. Some restaurants may choose to also offer the prix fixe for dine-in, so customers can call restaurants individually to inquire.

The event is more important than ever amid the pandemic as it is a good opportunity for residents to support local businesses.

This year, the Long Island Restaurant Week committee is also encouraging visitors to make donations to the Independent Restaurant Coalition, which supports restaurants through legislative change, and Island Harvest, which provides assistance to thousands of in-need individuals each week through innovative programs and services.
