Can you recommend a restaurant in City Island? Also, whats the best way to get there using public transportation? A cab costs me $25/way from where I live. Thanks.
Hi Jo: We always drive, but if we were to take mass transit, we'd take the Bx 12 to the Bx 29 bus. So your best bet is to use www.hopstop.com to figure out the easiest way from where you are. Make sure to check that you want directions for both subway AND bus, as you'll inevitably need the Bx 29 at the end of your journey. As for restaurants, it really depends what you're looking for. If you want quick, greasy, delish seafood with a great view, head to the end of the island to Johnny's Reef. If you're looking for sit down grub in air conditioning, we really like Artie's (394 City Island Avenue). Happy travels! Erin
