Long Island Restaurant Week Kicks Off Sunday

The bi-annual and award-winning Long Island Restaurant Week will kick off its Spring 2015 campaign from Sunday, April 26 to Sunday, May 3.

Participating restaurants will offer a three-course prix fixe for $27.95 all night, every night they are open except Saturday when the menu will only be offered until 7 p.m.

Restaurant week found its beginnings on the East End in 2003 and was organized by East Hampton-based public relations firm WordHampton.

Success out east prompted the creation of the Long Island-wide promotion, offering affordable meals from top chefs at some of the most expensive restaurants across the region.

“It is expected that the campaign this spring will garner more than 150 participants,” Steve Haweeli, President of Long Island Restaurant & Marketing Hospitality Group said. “With more than 2.8 million residents and 1,000 restaurants with varied cuisines, concepts and price points, it is no wonder why we started the highly anticipated Long Island Restaurant Week which continues to flourish.”

Participating area restaurants include:

• 1 North Steakhouse - Hampton Bays
• Cowfish - Hampton Bays
• Rumba Inspired Island Cuisine and Rum Bar - Hampton Bays
• Stone Creek Inn - East Quogue
• The Patio Restaurant - Westhampton Beach
• Trumpets on the Bay - Eastport
