“I moved the mattituck in 1968,& the bar was a great place to get a drink. The people were always nice. I use to help put bottles away& then they took care of me with a drink.Never had a problem.Parking: Great parking lot on street & in back“
“Went for a birthday dinner with a group of 6. The service was A1. Very nice and helpful. The table was also a horseshoe shape that was nice for the group to interact.It was restaurant week. The food was good, above average. Nothing blew us away but it was good.I will go back.“
“I got so drunk! They say it must have been good it you can't remember ? The owner is Portuguese, he gave us his secret private bottle. When he found out my friends n I speak Portuguese . Come w friends taste everything. Great place to hang w friends.“
“It was my first time & Jerry and the Mermaid & my server was named Lynn. She was a very sweet woman who made my experience even more enjoyable. The oysters were very fresh & briney the way that I like them & me & my friend were seated fairly quickly. The espresso martinis were soooo good, definitely recommend that if you’re into those. I would definitely come back here if I’m ever in the area & in the mood for some good seafood!“
“Went for lunch while in the area and was pleasantly surprised. I did a quick search for gluten free and found this place. My mother has Celiac and was over the moon that she could have anything on the menu! My shakshuka was good, she loved her chicken sandwich. But the star of lunch was the fried calamari. The place is cute and intimate, good music playing. We'll be back next time we're near.“
“My wife and I have been here twice and both times have been a very enjoyable experience. The food was excellent, service attentive, and it’s a wonderful intimate atmosphere. The bourbon list is outstanding if you’re a bourbon fan. The whole experience is worth a night out.“
“We are so glad to have tried this place despite the word "cafe" in its name. Everything we ordered was delicious, and beautifully presented. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Really like the decor, simple, clean and peaceful. Definitely on the return list, and if I were you, I would ignore some of the not so positive reviews of the place and give it a try!“
“What an adorable spot! The servers were very kind to allow us outside seating and turned the lights on for us. Our server was super helpful and cheery and enjoyed the night with us. The seafood penne a la vodka had plenty of lobster in it and they were kind enough to oblige our request for a different sauce for the steak. The merengue key lime was also delish! I’m surprised this place doesn’t have more reviews, such a nice gem in Hampton Bays!“
“Tidewater is the GOAT of genuine local great bars!!! Todd and the staff are absolutely top-notch. We had such a good time there while visiting the area, we went back the next night! The wings live up to the hype, and the hot dogs are as great as their menu names. I'm not kidding when I say that we will be making a special trip back to Southampton...and Tidewater is our destination!!! Can't wait to get back there. Go Islanders :)“
“as soon as you walk into the bar you get greeted by a smile and a warm welcoming!the bar having 15 seats and high tops there’s plenty of space for seating.Always having something going on with sponsors for sundays & any other given day as a surprise. Tvs surrounding the whole bar area including OTB tvs for your horse betting!!The food is absolutely phenomenal, authentic mexican food offering tacos, quesadillas, burritos, etc!The owner Emma is an absolute angel who makes everyone who walks through the door feel special & like family.Birdies Ale House is a bar that creates memories & friendships for a lifetime!“
“The short rib pizza is a delight for your taste buds! I've never had anything like it! The Panini's are tremendous, and their fries are nice and crispy! Can't wait till they put the fireplace on in the winter. I I was surprised that it wasn't crowded, but I am realizing that I don't think everyone knows about this place. If you haven't been there, then you have to go! Staff is friendly and accommodating. Great place for adults, kids, and families.“
“Love this place! My husband & I come here sometimes. Everybody is so nice, great menu & the food is delish! Great outdoor space with nice canal views!! Gets super busy in the summer & they have live music as well!! Check out their FB page!!“
“I cannot praise this restaurant and the staff enough. My boyfriend and I had the most incredible night here, EVER! We were so lucky to find this place last minute.The decor is beautiful, from the bar, the dining room, to the smoking lounge. The manager/bartender/server for the night, Dylan, went above and beyond to give us a great experience. Our waitress was friendly and polite, we were even lucky enough to meet the head chef and sous. We also met the wonderful Jazz couple that performed the night we went. We stayed here for *hours*. No exaggeration!FANTASTIC FOOD AND DRINKS!! And for someone who eats at a lot of places, the pricing for everything was more than reasonable, especially for the quality. I still tell the story of my visit here, and i’m going to for years to come. I am so excited to go back with my friends and family. If you’re considering any restaurant in Southampton, for real, try Main Prospect.“
“NOT open on Mondays, but still the best bar on the North Fork! Only place to get a real pour of Guinness! Not to mention the only pool table in Southold. Live music, karaoke and open mic nights. Outside seating available too during nice weather.“
“I love this place! The location is ideal after a long day of shopping and wanting to enjoy the area, the bar space is spacious and comfortable! The staff is always friendly and the menu is full of tasty options. I love that there are fun games to play and that it’s also a great place to bring family and friends. Give it a try!“
“Still thinking about my perfectly seasoned and cooked (so tender) bone in pork chop. Everyone loved their dishes. My beet salad appetizer was delicious , oysters fresh and a lovely glass of delicious Sicilian wine. Good value, great dining experience.“
“Nice spot right on the water with a varied menu. We loved the raw oysters and the meat and cheese platter. The duck wings were a bit on the tough side but the sauce is a winner. The blackberry margarita sounded great on paper, but in the mouth it wasn't the best combo. They had a band playing in the bar on a Saturday night. Will be a great place to return to when the weather gets warmer and we can eat outside.“
“By far the cleanest and best shucked oysters I have had in a LONG time. We ordered the salmon and lamb as our entree ... EXCELLENT. The lamb was perefctly cooked as well as the salmon. The crispy Brussel sprouts and and potatoes added a tasy charred flair. The sweet potato paired as a perfect side for the lamb. Now lets get to my complicated drink order, an American twist on a caipirinha, our server was so eager to please me :). And it was delish!! They also make a VERY good LI iced tea. So glad we took a chance on this gem.“
“The Ribs were amazing! They’re consistent with each rib serving and they age them to its precise time when the tenderness is supreme and the taste has fully seeped into the bone. Therefore creating a chemical reaction that repels the meat from the bone, hence what we all love and know… the meat falling right off. Service is great. 10/10 experience!“
