On Long Island italian, chinese, sushi, greek owned diners, casual sit down chains like applebees, fast food joints, and over priced seafood, and steak joints are basically what is available to any one who drives through.

I want to try something off the beaten path. Well, there are a few indian places, and kebab I think, but I have tried all that too.

What is good restaurant on Long Island that isnt in one of those common styles? Are there any good german beer gardens? What about scandinavian food? Any eastern Euro? Spain? No latin please, I have tried all that.

They’re all variations of the same crap.
Get some pizza, a bagel, a $7 cup of coffee and call it a night.

Why don't you download one of the 500 apps available for your phone and start browsing? They have reviews and you can sort by cuisine and everything. The future is here!

Not as good as it used to be :-(

There's the Village Lanterne in Lindenhurst (Wellwood Ave). Food's okay, atmosphere is German.
Plattduetsche Restaurant in Franklin Square is okay as well.
Zum Stammtisch in Glendale is the best (Queens), but parking is tough.

If you're ever in Montauk, Zum Schneider is pretty good.

The above is the personal opinion of someone who grew up in Germany
