For all you sushi and Chinese lovers this is the place for you! I just tried this place recently myself and was impressed at how good it actually was. The restaurant itself is different from any other Asian Kitchen's that I've been too. It makes you feel like you are in NYC instead of on Long Island.  It is kind of dark inside but it is huge! There three different seating areas. Right when you walk in, in the back room, and upstairs. I would recommend making reservations prior because it does get busy in there. The one thing I must add is that Monsoon is kind of pricey but the food was delicious and the service was good which is a deal breaker for me. Also this restaurant is dressier, so be sure to be in the correct attire when going there. 

• One thing that Monsoon is known for is their Babylon Express.

Though I have not tried the Babylon Express myself, I've heard nothing but good things about it. Mainly that it is refreshing. Also for people who are going to get a drink in a crowd they offer Scorpion Bowls, which is always a good drink for people to share. Especially people who like sweet fruity tastes.

This place is a great Mexican place and it is perfect for the summer time. The atmosphere itself is summery and when the weather is nice the windows are open so all the customers can feel like they are away from home. It is a nice dinner getaway. Everything on the menu is under $25, which is almost unbeatable nowadays. The food also isn't too authentic which I personally like. I came here for dinner for my 21st birthday with my parents and sister and we all thought the food and the drinks were good.  The portions were perfectly sized and more than enough food comes with the meals. My sister and I were able to split a steak fajita and there was enough food served that we were both full by the time that we finished. 




Also Cabo is known for their selection of Margaritas from their infamous Margarita Bar. There are also a lot of different deals here that you can't beat. The deals are as followed:

Nightlife Places:

Suffolk County

The Emporium
9 Railroad Ave, Patchogue, NY ‎
(631) 627-8787

This place is one of the BEST places that I've ever been to. It is ashame that I do not live closer to Emporium otherwise I'd be here every weekend. I suggest any one who enjoys dancing in a crowd come here. This place is HUGE which is a nice plus because most clubs are not this big. There is more than 3 big bars and getting a drink at the bar has never been an issue for me. They offer party packages as well as a VIP section with bottle service for the people who are interested in doing a party there. 

Even though most pictures of Emporium look extremely crowded, there is usually a lot of space for people to move around. This is a bar, eatery, and beer garden. Also they have many musical entertainers playing at the Emporium. 

Most events that they have are Friday and Saturday Nights. But the most popular event is their Saturday Night Dance Party. It is $15 dollars for men and $10 dollars for women to get in. You MUST BE 21 if you want to risk going in under 21 that is your call but I wouldn't risk it. The lines are usually long there so I would recommend being there by 10 p.m. to avoid the long line wait. 

The Dress Code For Friday and Saturday Nights are listed as followed:

• NO Hats
• NO Baggy Pants
• NO Shorts (Men)
• NO Athletic Shoes
• NO Tank Tops (Men)
• NO Cut Off Shirts
