Captain Luna's Seafood Bar & Grill
The area surrounding JFK has never been a dining destination, but if you find yourself at the end of the A line you could do worse than Captain Luna's, a tented bar and wooden dock overlooking Howard Beach's Cross Bay. The nearby marina charters fishing-boat excursions, but landlubbers will do fine with a bottle of Bud and a plate of crustaceans caught by professionals. Smack against the local fire station, the makeshift seafood shack attracts everyone from families to hungry bikers (we're not talking the fixed-gear crowd). Steamed crabs are offered in different sizes (depending on availability, of course) just like in Maryland. A dozen regulars cost $36, while large ones will set you back $4 more.
