Restaurants near Ocean Beach

“Friendly accommodating staff. Beautiful water and sunset views. Food and service was great. The cocktails were even better.”

“Walk off the ferry in Ocean Beach and walk into the best restaurant on the Great South Bay. The location, service, and food are unsurpassed. The Curry Shrimp is spiced to perfection. It is a generous portion, but you will want more. Lunch or dinner is a Five Star experience.”

“Been going to Scoops for years! Great ice cream... friendly staff... a must do when visiting Ocean Beach!”

“My favorite place to go every summer! Thank you for a delicious lunch and terrific afternoon! Love Matthew’s Seafood House.”

“Great place to hang out. After a long day hanging out in the bay. Food is great service.”

“I love having a vegan option in fire island! My husband has been coming to fire island since he was a child and we became vegan together about 5 years ago. We miss town pizza but are so appreciative of having an alternative so we’re not a pain with family! We always get a vegan cheese pizza with mushrooms and whatever veggies are available! We love it!”

“If you're on Fire Island and over 21, make this a stop. And order the Rocket Fuel. Great starting/ending point for a day trip, or meetup for friends gathering on the island.”

“On the advice of a friend who regularly visits Fire Island, our family of eight, including a four-year-old and an infant, had an amazing dinner experience at Albatross tonight. I was somewhat apprehensive because the restaurant's Google rating was lower than that of another restaurant where we had had a disappointing lunch the first day of our stay. So I wanted to write my five-star review as soon as possible.

Our positive experience began when we dropped by during the afternoon to get the hostess's advice on how to procure a table for eight people -- without a reservation! -- on a busy Saturday night. She told us that if we came before 6:00 they would probably be able to accommodate us.

This is exactly what happened. When we arrived we were immediately seated at a comfortable table near the window. The attentive waitstaff quickly took our drink orders and, shortly thereafter, our meal orders.

I was worried that our small children might become difficult while we ate two courses (starters and a main course). However, our server brought our starters quickly, and the main course soon after clearing our dishes from the first course. The timing was perfect!

The food was perfect, too. I enjoyed my New England clam chowder, one of the best versions I've tasted. The table shared top-notch oysters, steamers, fried calamari, and Buffalo wings. Our mains, which included grilled fish, linguine with white clam sauce, and penne with vodka source and grilled shrimp, were uniformly excellent, with quality ingredients and preparation. For example, the grilled broccoli that accompanied my barramundi was so flavorful that it transcended the norm for this standard vegetable.

With our meal we enjoyed a bottle of white wine at a fair price.

This review may sound too favorable to be true, but it accurately describes our experience. I recommend Albatross wholeheartedly.”

“It's a good pizza.”

“I really liked the Ocean Beach FI Sand Bar. The staff were so accommodating. The food was good and the drinks were made so well. The two bands we stayed for were excellent. We will be back soon!”

“Hands down the Best meals, portions and service we had all week on Fire Island! The coconut shrimp and calamari apps were fantastic. The scallops, bone-in ribeye, eggplant entrees and all 3 desserts were phenomenal. Our waitress Christen and Holden gave perfect service. Highly recommend The Dunes!”

“Fun place! Not only do they have ice cream, but they also sell Italian ices, candy, and baked goods! The only catch is that they only take cash. Be aware of this!”

“Very relaxing cozy tea room, delicious deserts and finger sandwiches, many teas to choose”

“The food is on another level!

and cozy.
I can’t wait to go back.”
