We had an amazing dining experience at Minnow. The best oysters and the BEST local fish! The servers were very attentive and the Chef Ana (originally from Venezuela) came to our table to chat and she was just wonderful Highly recommend it! There was also a guy playing the guitar on the deck at sunset which was very pleasant! We are going to go back for sure : )

Great food, exceptional service, awesome drink selection. This experience will bring you a whole educational journey into sustainable and organic gastronomy. A different proposal for the NOFO region worth visiting.

I absolutely adore the minnow ! Everything I have had to eat is amazing. Lots of local sea fare and many veggie options too! The flavors are like nothing I have had elsewhere. Where you want to savor every single bite! The views across the bay are stunning and sitting on the deck on the gorgeous teak furniture is so idyllic. Whoever designed the place did a phenomenal job. I was told all the art prints were framed by a local framer and are all of fish that swim in north Fork waters. How cool! All the beers are local which is also super cool to see support for local breweries. I have been on a Wednesday for the regatta and on a Thursday when they had live music on the deck. The staff is all so friendly and the drinks are just gorgeous. They told me the strawberry's in the marg were from the local organic farm. There's just so many things I loved ! Kombucha on tap!!! Oh and they have a market in the back full of handmade goods, toiletries and beach needs and pantry food items plus lattes and pasties and breakfast foods ! Thank you minnow for being so fabulous ! My new fave spot

The food is meh, service is bad, and the prices are insane. Had to flag someone down to ask for a napkin and utensils with my meal. If you’re charging $50 for an entree, maybe try to understand hospitality. The staff was hanging out around the bar listening to TikTok on their phones at full volume while ignoring the guests. This restaurant relies on the great views and slacks on everything else while price gouging. Expect a mediocre meal and bad service. This is actually the only restaurant where I’ve sent food back (undercooked fish). I’ve given this place 5 chances and been disappointed every time. Sad because the location is so so lovely and we need more great restaurants on the North Fork. Would happily pay their prices if the experience and food matched the cost.

Ridiculously overpriced. Food okay, nothing special for the prices. Tiny portions!! $10 for water. Cheap paper napkins…go for the view

The food was very good with an excellent variety of fish dishes. The setting and views were fabulous and worth a detour. The prices were very high- $100 pp. incl tip.

We had been here at least 20 times and generally had 4/5 or 5/5 experiences but this most recent visit was a complete fail. Horrible service and food quality was not up to par. Waitress wax completely inattentive and obviously very distracted. We had to ask the manager multiple times for things the waitress said would be right over but never arrived. We used to really like this place so I hope they can get back to their old form.

Beautiful spot and delicious food. The bartender Abraham was so very friendly and attentive. We will be back again soon.

Beautiful View! That's the only positive. Rude staff & management. Menu is trying to be high end but failed horribly.

Wonderful place to eat off the beaten path. The food was delicious. And the server was friendly and helpful when deciding what to order. He recommended the proper portions for sharing instead of maximizing the bill and his tip. The water views were spectacular. And the atmosphere was relaxed. I would certainly going there again.

Table of 4, and we had multiples of the chicken Milanese and crispy almond fish. The chicken “Milanese” included no arugula (parsley instead…what???) barely any lemon and lacked any flavor as a result. Crispiness of chicken was actually quite good which made the lack of normal and simple toppings more offensive. At $42, it was about half the amount of chicken anyone was expecting. Moving on to the fish dish.. a fried fish dish that had almost no fish in it. There was so little fish that it was difficult to cut through the dish because it was fried breading on top of fried breading. Thankfully, the kind waitress (and all servers were super nice) was willing to remove the dish from the check and made attempts to make things better. Appreciate all the efforts for real. But the actual dishes were honestly subpar and I can’t ignore that fact.

Incredible experience! Wonderful view of the water and a really cool vibe to the restaurant. We shared the special grilled salmon which was delicious and the roasted potatoes were some of the best I have ever had. Definitely give Minnow a try when you’re on the North Fork. We came over from the beach, parking was super easy and the kids menu has a smaller portion of the chicken Milanese Thant my kids LOVED and it came with ice cream from a local creamery.
Strongly recommend!

Kid-friendliness: I literally can’t rave enough about the kids menu, same delicious food at a great price, my kids can’t wait to go back and play corn hole on the lawn.

Beautiful waterfront location with indoor and patio dining. Love the concept of sustainable, line caught fresh fish with a beautiful presentation. The scallops were like butter and tuna was caught the day prior by the owner. Great experience
