28 Best Italian Restaurants near Hampton Bays

“My wife and I had dinner last evening at Centro for the first time under the new management and were very pleased. The food was top notch as well as the staff, Con, Nick and the owner/ manager John. I'm certain it will be a regular stop for us going forward.“

“Fantastic food - Uncle Joe is a local legend. I've been eating his food since the 80s. Uncle Joe's Veal and Stuffed Artichokes are the Best! Mushroom & Garlic Calzone with or without Ham..Garbage Pie Pizza... getting hungry! Try the Prixe Fixe in the dinning room, full bar, great food and plenty of it, great prices. Awesome Desserts..“

“Excellent food ..cooked to perfection..Great wait staff..Cozy & Inviting…“

“If you’re in Mattituck, NY, and craving an authentic Italian dining experience, A Mano Italian Restaurant should be at the top of your list. From the moment you step in, the warm, welcoming atmosphere makes you feel right at home.

Start your meal with their mussels appetizer, which is absolutely delicious—each mussel is perfectly cooked and served in a rich, flavorful sauce that sets the tone for the rest of your meal. The Sunday Special is always a treat, showcasing the chef’s creativity and dedication to fresh, seasonal ingredients. I highly recommend the pan-seared cod, which was a standout dish with its perfectly crisp exterior and tender, flaky interior, complemented by a beautifully balanced sauce.

No meal is complete without dessert, and A Mano’s cannolis are not to be missed. They are filled with a creamy, sweet ricotta filling that is both indulgent and satisfying.

Overall, A Mano offers an exceptional dining experience with its authentic flavors and inviting ambiance. It’s a place where every detail, from the food to the atmosphere, reflects a true appreciation for Italian cuisine. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, A Mano is a gem that promises to delight.“

“Absolutely love this place. My second time going and I can not wait to go back. Food was fantastic, and both times the staff was extremely pleasurable. Two thumbs up“

“The food is amazing and the staff is incredible. We had a blast there last evening. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Dopo has become our favorite restaurant in the Hamptons. Vlad, the host, welcomes us with warmth and recognition and does his best to seat us at a nice table. He makes everyone feel special. The wait staff is warm and makes sure to check in regularly but discreetly. The food is delicious. We love the bread, chopped salad, whole branzino, mac n cheese and much more. The fellow diners are often fun to chat with and watch as well. No matter how often we go, and sometimes it's weekly, our evenings at Dopo always feel special.“

“Stumbled by this bistro in Southampton and decided to go in for lunch. To our pleasant surprise we had a wonderful meal with excellent wine pairings suggested by our server, we loved our lunch so much we decided on having dinner at their NYC location the next evening, needless to say it was magnificent! Looking forward to trying the other locations….“

“loved the White Clam sauce“

“Would definitely recommend for a nice handmade pasta meal. They were able to accommodate dietary restrictions (vegan and vegetarian) and still had a wonderful tasting pasta. We also had half plates of zucchini fries which was huge, and a half plate of baked clams, which came with 6 clams.“

“Great atmosphere and menu“

“Great meal and kid-friendly. Paula is lovely!“

“Creative specials using local, fresh ingredients. Extensive liquor and cocktail list. Busy bar and professional service always!“

“We've lived in this area for almost 10 years and had never been. Probably because our kids are now finally old enough to sit properly for a nice meal at a nice restaurant :-) The food was truly amazing. It was a pretty crowded Sat night and parking was hard to find...had to park across the street... despite a fairly long wait for meal...the food was well worth the wait and we got out before any meltdowns:)“

“Had a wonderful Easter dinner and can’t wait to go back.“

“Good food, friendly spot, big fan. Been coming here for years. Here's my 1 suggestion: for the takeout ...why not offer online ordering? I have to call for take-out, which usually results in the line being busy (in the summer). If I can't get through I have to go elsewhere, which stinks because I live close by. Then, if I do get through, have to provide my credit card info, which is very 2006. Maybe ownership simply doesn't need the takeout biz and prefers it this way, and that's fine, but remains frustrating nonetheless. Just my .02 cents.“

“I loved the Philly cheese steak slice.“

“Wish we discovered Lenny’s sooner. Immediately took me back to the days I lived in Brooklyn and LI. Lenny’s exceeded my expectations. Fresh ingredients — all bursting with flavor. Perfect sauces, real cheeses (not plastic-like as so many seem to be), generous whole ingredients. We will be going back and loading up to bring home extras to Vermont. Friendly service too. Thank you Lenny’s! ?“

“We ordered the Chicken Picata from the catering menu, and it was delicious. The process of order was very easy, and the staff there was very accommodating, even though I picked the order up quite a bit after the scheduled time.
The people at our event loved it.
They said one tray feeds 12 people, but there were over 30 people at our party and plenty of leftovers from 2 trays.“

“The Patio has been consistently the best place for good food on LI. Attentive and kind staff and incredible pasta & cheesecake. Best place for a date night!“

“It’s outdated, the food isn’t high quality, but it’s a Southampton institution. That being said, my husband and I went on a date night we’re we ordered one slice of pizza from 10 places from Wainscott to Hampton bays and Paul’s had the best slice. A bottle of Caesar dressing is always in the fridge. Don’t come here expecting much from the regular menu, and staff is always rotating so service is iffy. Stick with the pizza and you won’t be disappointed“

“The Spanish food is delicious. I love their cheese pizza it's my favorite.
Everything is always fresh hot and delicious.
If you speak Spanish you have to come here. They have a wonderful variety of Spanish food.
They have one table so you can eat there. But the few times I've been there I always take it to go.

Wheelchair accessibility: I believe so. It's in a small shopping area with other stores. They have handicapped parking and a ramp.“

“Great local place with excellent food and wine in a comfortable friendly atmosphere.“

“Working in the area for several days and found this little gem nearby. We liked it so much this became our lunch spot for the week.

The first day I was craving lentils and they had lentil soup available. I had that with a side of sausages. I also had the fried chicken and vegetables from the hot food bar and then the fried rice. I liked it all. Apparently their pizza is pretty good as well.“

“Lovely dinner with my family last night. Waitstaff could have came around to keep drinks full and make sure our needs were met. Food was delicious but someone needs to please clean that pizza oven. Burn bottom and crust was a bummer as everything else was very nice. Photo is my take home slices. All three pies were this way. Such a shame. My family came from MA.“
