I'm a native. Mask was a diner. Not a stainless-steel NJ type, but one nonetheless, a generation ago. Same location, next to an old gas station and across the street from a funeral home and a car dealership. I've even got a postcard.
The Land Rover dealer used to sell Chevrolets in the '60's + 70's.
Anyway, I'd like to try that pizza at Mask. Thin crust rules, and it brings out the flavor of the sauce and the toppings, not the typical LI doughy slice.›1 Reply -
I figured I'd report back...I don't remember the location being a Diner before-actually I'm pretty sure you are confusing it with something else. The inside was decorated with masks, very festive, colorful and tastefully done. Service was excellent. They aim to please. All the duce tables have a little side table to put other "stuff", like a bottle of wine, condiments, things that take up space. We both had salads to start. Mine was a tri-color salad with goat cheese (crumbles) and slivered almonds. My partner's was a pear salad (don't remember what else was in it). While both were delicious, we felt that they didn't warrant the hefty price tag of $12-$15 (both for a single serving, not for two). I ordered the linguini with shrimp, scallops, mussels. I couldn't eat the pasta. It was not only loaded with oil but they also added a generous amount of butter. It was just too much oil/fat overload for me to enjoy it. My husband order a pizza with ham, salami * sausage-he was in carnavore heaven. They have a large selection of pizzas, thin crust (which we love). We decided that we'd only go back if we were in the neighborhood and wanted pizza or maybe to try an entree.
