30 Best Seafood Restaurants near New Suffolk

“My wife and I visited yesterday. My wife had been there before, but it was my first trip.Great bar, enough sports to make me dizzy, some of the very best chicken wings and flashpanned calamari I’ve tasted on Long Island, but what really made our time memorable was our bartender Todd.Warm, welcoming, and generous in his hospitality. I found my new favorite place.“

“I was here with my husband for a network for LeTip and we had the upstairs back room that was well heated. The food was delicious. We had truffle fries, some sort of spicy shrimp, and pork belly and it was all delicious and melt in your mouth.“

“Update: Went back their 1st day open again (March 28 2024).. and of course, had my favorite mezzo app! ? That pita bread ?Sam was great as always but one thing that did happen was a credit card charge on receipt but we paid cash. It says CC service charge. We just asked about it and then she said she forgot to take it off so we just told her if she took it off to just keep it as part of the tip we already left.Also we ordered mussels but felt like we took out a lot of empty shells. We found some in the broth but was alot of empty more than would be. Enough that we both questioned it. so we will try again.B loves the cornbread. I just remember the key lime pie I had last year for my bday. Yum!OLD REVIEW: I thought I already left a review but realized I didn't. This was my favorite discovery last Summer and I kept coming back bringing different people! I got sad to see it was temporarily closed but it is scheduled to open today and we are coming! ? Gotta go find all the pictures. I even celebrated my Bday there last year. Willing to drive from Southampton just to order to go ? Such a cute place...great food!“

“This is a follow up to our 2023 review of R., Aire at the Hampton Maid in Hampton Bays. As superb as R. Aire was during the past eighteen months, recent visits underscore that the restaurant continues to reach new culinary heights under Chef and Owner Alex Bujoreanu. In a landscape of high priced and often mediocre restaurants on the East End, R. Aire is a unique venue - a chef driven restaurant which offers sophisticated cuisine inspired by the classics of Spain - in an elegant, serene setting - and at moderate prices.Although we have previously taken note of R. Aire’s outstanding signature paellas, the “non rice” sections of the menu offer a range of equally delicious dishes - all made with the finest (and often local) ingredients and reflecting the chef’s masterful synthesis of both classical and modern influences.For example, Chef Bujoreanu offers an amazing Fideua - a short grain pasta dish cooked in the method of paella (in a paella pan) in a richly flavored sofrito. R. Aire’s Fideua is a textural wonder, served two ways - as a seafood and squid ink classic or a rustic wild mushroom and duck version. Fideua is rarely offered in the U.S. - these renditions are authentic and superb.R. Aire’s appetizers and small plate “pinchos”offer an array of delectable choices, from flavorful morsels of grilled lamb (Morunos), aromatic grilled Shishito peppers, succulent octopus, airy meatballs and a lovely heirloom beet salad. One could construct a deeply satisfying dinner from these perfectly composed small plates.In addition to the Fideua and traditional paellas for which R. Aire is known - the paellas have a perfect “socarrat” base and are cooked to order and served in individual paella pans - the non rice dishes are equally impressive. Memorable main courses include pristine local sea scallops, breast of duck, Iberico pork and a filet mignon of Wagyu beef. This is cooking at a very high level.The service at R. Aire is warm and inviting. The restaurant’s gracious manager, Grigore, provides an attentive hands on presence in the dining room; he is clearly focused on delivering the service and hospitality which has been the restaurant’s credo since it opened.It should be noted the restaurant’s wine list has continued to evolve, offering a range of wines from Spain and the U.S. and other wine regions from excellent producers - and at fair prices.In a world of formulaic restaurants and homogeneous food, R. Aire stands out for its warmth, value and brilliant cooking. Bravo to Chef Bujoreanu and his team for creating a special venue in Hampton Bays.“

“Had a great brunch with my mom a few Sundays back. I had the shrimp and grits and my mom a breakfast specialty bowl. Also had the duck empanadas. Food and service were excellent and we had a great view of the bay as we ate and chatted. First time dining there and it was great. Bar and dining area set up With a great island vibe.“

“Love love love! Great food, service and an extensive menu.“

“Very nice restaurant, a part of an inn. very specious inside but there is also sitting outside which is nice as it is between 2 buildings and you have plenty of shade. We had the Claude's Tacos (recommended), Fish and Chips ( a it blend, but I loved it), Lobster Roll (on a ban, but still excellent).“

“Food was excellent and service was very attentive. I think prices are reasonable. Was disappointed that we had to sit in the other room on Valentine's Day...it was bright and no fireplace. No real decor. The main dining area was much nicer.“

“Food and service was wonderful!“

“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!“

“Amazingly creative seafood and wonderful service made for a great birthday celebration! The lobster and shrimp shepherd’s pie was spectacular! This restaurant is outstanding!“

“enjoyed a delicious dinner, great service by Sandra but did not like the staffs attire. Felt like I was in a barn or stable“

“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!!“

“The food is outstanding here! My wife ordered a softshell crab sandwich. She loved it! I ordered the Plandrom Wrap. It was excellent.“

“I have tried a number of different items.There shrimp dumplings are out of this world.The wonton soup is delicious.Boneless spareribs were great.Shrimp and broccoli was perfect.There is not one negative thing about this establishment.The service was so courteous & polite.I go there all the time now.The Best !“

“awesome atmosphere, awesome owner, awesome menu!“

“Our first time here. We came for an anniversary dinner. They let us bring in a cake which they cut & served. Everyone had a wonderful time. Nice view of the water. Angel was our waiter, and he was wonderful. I had the eggplant rollatini, which was delicious. We had the meatballs & Barrata for our appetizer. That was so good. I will be back.“

“Great food and atmosphere“

“Nice little sandwich shop in Mattituck. We hit this place before going to a couple wineries nearby. The woman behind the counter was quite nice and told us about her few favorite sandwiches. We ordered fries, the game day, and Charlie's brother in law. Everything was tasty and fresh. The game day was delicious but could have used more sauce and honestly a little less chicken. Charlie's brother in law was perfect. Nice and lite. Fries had great seasoning/batter but unfortunately stuck together a bit. Will return!“

“SOOOO GOOD!! ???????~ We just moved to the area and this place is 5 minutes away from our new house!! We just tried it and are SOOOOO EXCITED!! The food was DELISH!! New England Clam chowder was DELISH!!! Broiled seafood platter DELISH!!! Cream spinach DELISH!! And my hunnnnies Jeff had the salad topped with steak ~ DELISH!!! Of course I paired my meal with some white wine~ ????Can’t wait to come back and order a full steak dinner!! The restaurant has a cozy, homey vibe and we had Megan as our server and she was the BEST!! SOOOO HAPPY to find this place!!! ? ⚓️“

“If you haven't been to Captain Jack's yet... what are you waiting for?! Their food is phenomenal, everything is priced very fairly, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the service was wonderful!“

“A friend was going on and on about this place, swearing by their Porterhouse steak. Stepping inside felt like stumbling upon a cozy dive-bar-meets-elegant-dining gem, with a charmingly "homey feel" that immediately puts you at ease. You could tell it is a spot that mostly only locals frequent. They gave us the nod to choose our own seat and we instantly felt at home. The waitress who greeted us was as friendly as she was eager to take our drink orders. I opted for the marinated steak over salad, while my husband ordered the marinated porterhouse. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, expertly cooked to perfection. Overall, it's exactly what they said it would be: cozy, with loads of character, and the servers are pretty friendly too. It's a dining experience you won't find anywhere else on the North Fork, a real adventure for your taste buds. Next time you're feeling like a carnivore, make sure you visit the elbow room in Jamesport. I hear they have another location, but I was told this is the best one. The verdict? The Elbow Room charmed its way into our hearts.“

“we still miss the days of Cor-J but fortunately little has changed and this is still our #1 choice for seafood on the east end~ best product/selection + knowledgeable staff. they'll do #littlenecks on the halfshell (when we dont have time to shuck at home) it's a dream and reasonably priced. the blackfish was write-home-about level delicious“

“We live in this town and we have been here many times. They have a great happy hour with half-price drinks most days of the week and on Fridays half price apps. We went for a full dinner several times this summer and we' have not been disappointed. Special recommendations for bartender Eddie, and waitress Katie. Recommend the dishes - apps: Baja fish tacos, fish chouda, Thai chili mussels, Entree: crusted cod. The chicken Milanese looks wonderful, but didn't actually have it. The shrimp and grits with sausage was only OK. I can make it better at home. Sit outside on the deck when the weather is wonderful, but sit inside when it is marginal.“

“Commander Cody's came though on short notice.I forgot to orderShrimp for our bowling dinner in advance, but I was able to get 5 Lbs of shrimp cocktail with in a few hours quickly. They made up the shrimp and it was absolutely delicious. Everyone loved them.Thank you!“

“We had such a fun night at Noah's last night! We ordered lots of small plates and every single one was beyond delicious! Beautiful Leslie our server staged it all out perfectly and we had a wonderful time! The peach jalapeno margarita is delightful!! The filet mignon sliders are a must. I want another one right now actually!“

“I recently ate at this restaurant with a good friendYou look out the window and can see Shinnecock canal beautiful view in summer you can dine outside tooI like fish and chips and the cod was fresh battered and the sweet potato fries great tooMy friend had the steamed razor clams in garlic sauce along with breaded calamari he managed to eat the clams but had to take the calamari home to his wifeDraft beer fresh dessert“

“This stop was recommended to us by a local winery. We stopped for an early dinner. There is a nice porch to sit on. Food is counter service. We enjoyed the scallop and corn salsa special and the raw oysters. We did not enjoy the grilled calamari with butter and lemon. Looks like a good place to get seafood for home preparation.“

“Interior is warm and inviting, our server was exceptionally welcoming and friendly with myself and wife. Was never rushed and maintained welcomed intervals of time between courses. The choices were enticing but the specials are what we ordered and they were delicious. Presentation hit the mark and cocktails were great. I would gladly recommend Touch of Venice to everyone. Truly an enjoyable experience in fine dining.“

“We first visited Sophie's about 10 years ago-we were not impressed. Mostly fried food served in styrofoam plates and uncomfortable high-top tables. This past fall, we visited Sophie's again (first time in 10 years). WOW-what an improvement! Delicious marinated steak, fantastic clams-on real plates! Beautifully decorated, comfortable dining table and chairs, friendly staff-great food and drinks. We have returned several times since-always satisfied with our dining experience!! My one complaint-don't serve appys with plastic plates.“
