I'll have to see if I can unearth the name of that restaurant...
An interesting follow-up:
The good news: The restaurant is called Donato's and is still located in Woodside, Queens. By sheer coincidence I've been living on the same block as the restaurant for the last several years. Quite an extensive menu. Great pizza, too.
The bad news: The pasta with squid ink is not on the menu anymore.

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
