Goldberg's has the best bagels. They also have tofu cream cheese and soymilk available for coffee, so it's perfect for people who are vegan or can't have milk. I only give it four stars because they charge double to price of a bagel just to toast it, and another nearby place does it for free.

Temporarily Closed for the season. We will re-open in April 2019. Situated on Three-Mile Harbor, Harbor Bistro is a family-owned waterfront restaurant which provides one of the most spectacular sunset views in the Hamptons. The restaurant overlooks Maidst

The good thing is that it has a view of the harbor and all the sailboats docked there if you eat in the outer area, the bad thing is, a lot of tables can have you baking in the sun, even though there's a roof over your head. So, inside is best for avoiding the sun, but then you don't appreciate the view. Now for the food - it's really really good. We opt for their $29 prix fixe which is only 5-6pm. It's early, and that's why we have a problem with sun. Anyway, it includes appetizer, entree, and a choice of either a glass of wine, or dessert. We opt for the wine. For apps, choice of two salads, or soup. Entrees include salmon, two pastas, and a pork schnitzel. Their prix fixe menu never seems to change all summer. Always get the pork schnitzel, just love it and it's a huge portion. Service is great, professional and friendly. You can get the prix fixe at the bar all night, but we find it's not that comfortable to eat there, prefer a table.

An East Hampton diner at its best. It has been there forever and is the Hamptons version of a great diner. How do they offer such a wide selection. Filled with personality of the people who have been going there for decades - super diner food!

The Palm remains one of the great restaurants in the Hamptons year round. Thanks to Andrew and Shelia one moves quickly from the lobby to your table. The restaurant is usually filled on Saturday night year round. Fridayâs and Sundayâs are more reasonable except during July and August when every night is very busy. The steaks and lobsters are the specialty of the house and delicious. Creamed spinach and onion rings and steak fries are a must as is the Monday night salad. The carrot cake can feed a small nation but you most probably wonât want to share it with too many people at your table. Extensive wine list and some very reasonable bottles. Reservations are a must.
6. Rowdy Hall

We called into Rowdy Hall on a Sunday afternoon, initially just for a drink. Dermot, the bartender, was excellent - really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. We asked to look at the menu, thinking we might call back later to eat. Dermot described all of the specials and explained that there would be a limited menu between 3.30 and 5pm, for the changeover between lunch and dinner. As it was already around 2.30, we decided to stay for lunch, after weâd finished our drinks. It all went downhill after that ...We chose a table and a server arrived to take a drinks order. We ordered a bottle of Pinot Noir (Dermot had kindly given us a taste of it at the bar). Our server asked a couple of times if we had any questions about the menu. He didnât at any point mention any of the specials. When we chose our meals, I asked for the shrimp sandwich special, which Dermot had said came with potato chips, fries or greens. I wasnât offered this choice by the server, he just said âIt comes with potato chips.â His colleague did come over later to ask if I wanted to change to a different side order, but it all sounded like it was too much trouble for them. My husband ordered a Croque Madame - ie a Croque Monsieur with a fried egg on top. The server asked how heâd like his egg fried. When it arrived there was no egg. At no point did anybody ask if everything was okay with our meal, so my husband had to wait until our server topped up our water glasses to point out that he hadnât had an egg and to ask him to make sure we werenât charged for it. My husband then heard the two servers talking about it and the female server saying âDoes he want the egg now, then?â She then walked past us, so my husband told her that he didnât want the egg. Her reply was indiscernible, but sounded like âMeh.â There was certainly no sign of any sort of apology from anybody for getting the order wrong.The food was good, but it felt as if we were imposing on them by choosing to eat just before the changeover period and everything was rushed. My husbandâs plate was whisked away as soon as heâd finished, but before I had, and then when Iâd finished my sandwich, my plate was snatched away, along with the remaining potato chips, which were in a separate bowl. The server didnât think to ask whether I was still eating them, and as heâd put his hand right over the top of them to take them away, I certainly wasnât going to ask him to put them back down. He also kept topping up our wine glasses as if he wanted to rush us through the bottle. When there was a bit left (maybe half a glass each) in the bottle, he looked at it and asked whether we thought we would finish it. We said yes, then when he came back, we asked why heâd asked the question and he said âWell if you canât finish it, I could put a cork in it for you. Or I could help you out with it.â It was a nice bottle of wine, which we wanted to savour during and after our meal, but he completely spoiled that experience for us.When we paid the bill, we scored out the gratuity line, to make it clear that we donât tip for poor service and bad attitude. We did, however, give Dermot a cash tip when we left, as he clearly deserved it.

My daughter and I went here for early dinner. We shared the Lobster Roll...it was some kind of delicious!! We always like the Hillstone restaurants ( Houston's,Rutherford Grill,etc) They are always excellent and never disappoint, and East Hampton Grill was no exception. Can't wait to come back next year. The crowd in summer is ridiculous, but in the fall it is far more manageable. Atmosphere, personnel, food, service, all excellent.

As you know or will soon find out, this place is busy and more often than not, you wait to be seated. We were there at 1 PM.While we waited, two seats at the counter opened up, so we ordered a couple appetizers to entertain our wait. Then another seat was freed, and then two more... so we kept ordering... and had our lunch at the counter, which was just fine, watching the flurry of activity of the kitchen... and we got out of there in a flash... in much less time than we would have waited for a table.I had fried oysters on a salad... very good. Crab cakes were OK, but we are not in Baltimore at Faidley's Seafood. Put Faidleyâs on your bucket list.

The waiter seemed to be reading my mind and he was so knowledgeable in recommending food and wine pairing and did so very graciously it was a delight.The Food (squid for starters, lamb as main) was hands down among the best food Iâve ever had. Incredibly flavorful and fresh. I was in true food heaven. The Restaurant is very romantic and ideal for a special night out. Highly highly recommend

This was once adorable, with the garden in the back, and bar room feel inside, some how, the food is not at all as good as it once was. My tuna was awful and not of great quality, the seaweed was dried out, and fresh ginger tasted like it was left over from last week. My husband clam chowder was watery..We had to ask for bread, even the olive oil tasted poorley..Service was very slow..The help was nice..The bathroom was clean.I doubt I will rush back.Hi there. I am disappointed to hear this feedback. Please know that this is not the norm for our restaurant, and is not the standard we hold ourselves to. We want all of our guests to have a great and positive all around experience with us, and knowing this was not the case for your visit is saddening. We hope that you visit us again in the future.

Shortly after we sat down the chaos began which was due to a waiter who had a an inappropriately high opinion of himself.The drinks and bread were poorly managed.FOUND PIECES OF THE TIN CHEESE WRAPPER IN THE SALAD!The waiter must have come to his senses after causing a scene which didnât sit well with me. He offered dessert on the house. After we consumed the dessert he said one dessert was on the house. Bait and switch,to add insult to injury.I called the owner later in the day to report the incident, he offered a complimentary bottle of rose upon my next visit.In addition to apologies he said what many restauranteurs say, â good help is hard to findâ to which I say â not my problemâWhat makes him think I would return?
