This is no longer the out of the way little restaurant. The prices reflect the clientele they often serve. Folks on their way to the Hamptons. The food is fresh and prepared well. The menu is unimaginative. The Puffers are great if they hAVE THEM.

I stopped by here for a late lunch on a Friday. During the winter months the hours of operation are limited. The food was excellent, with East End prices, but worth it. The food was served a bit luke warm.

We didn't eat at the first location in Amagansett, but did here, where there is both indoor & outdoor seating. The lobster roll was very good (but maybe not as good as a couple of other places we tried), but the fried puffer was excellent! Friendly service.

Sure, there are less expensive places on the East End, but when you come to the Lobster Roll, you get what you pay for. I will admit that fish and chips for $19 is a bit hard to justify in the middle of nowhere. I was very surprised when I saw that the North Fork prices were the same as... More

Decided to have dinner here after a day at the wineries. What a great decision it was! It was beautiful weather so we were able to eat outside on the deck. There was a guy playing some great classic rock tunes on an acoustic guitar, which was perfect. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful with our selections. The lobster... More

Went there for dinner with our two young kids. We sat at a table outside. Atmosphere was nice, they had a small band playing! Ordered lobster rolls which were amazing! Kids menu is very reasonably priced. Would definitely go there again!

A great staff serving great food especially the local tomatoes stuffed with lobster & the soft shell crabs. Eating inside is nice & outside even better. In a separate building a few yards away is a delightful tasting room that serves flights of local beers & wines.

This restaurant use to be one of the reasons to visit the wineries on the north fork of Long Island. The food was terrible and very expensive. I ordered the puffers for appetizer which were full of bones. There were 5 pieces for 18.00 and for dinner Crusted Salmon which was dry and over cooked. I will never return to... More
