ayside is a largely residential neigh- borhood in Northeast Queens with the Long Island Sound to the
north and the Long Island border to the east. Bell Boulevard is the major thorough- fare with a wide variety of shopping op- tions, everything from nail salons to greatrestaurants to the borough’s only used book store.
For years, the area has had large Italian and Jewish populations, while many Koreans have moved there recently. These ethnicities are well-represented in the food options, but restaurants serving a wide variety of cuisines thrive there in part due to the area’s wealth.
