As a restaurant reviewer with forty-four million views on all of my platforms, I don't like leaving less than four stars but I was completely underwhelmed. Ordering was a strange process. Customers place their order and it is brought out by a server. Our server, Amanda, was the only bright spot as she was very professional and personable.
The shrimp tacos contained three shrimp and the lobster rolls and cole slaw were very dry. For better prices and service, you can find other local options or head to Freeport. Ordering drinks was time consuming and cumbersome. I spent thirty minutes online and away from my dining partners.
My dining companion requested that her tacos not contain a certain item because of a very severe allergy. I brought it to a young man (tall, wearing his cap backwards) who was behind the register. I explained the allergy and he responded "And...?" Then he rolled his eyes to a customer. Do I have to really explain a food allergy to someone working in the food business? He's the primary reason we won't return.
With so many other seafood options, let this be your second or third choice.

Just no. The food was just not tasty. Fries were dry and stringy. Raw clams were not fresh. Clam strips were full of dough. I did not taste ANY clam. New England clam chowder was a bit on the sour side. And by the way, when we let them know the soup was sour, the waiter said we had to go back on the line. That made no sense. There you go. Bad service. Did nothing to help. Ordered more stuff, but nothing was impressive at all. Otherwise, view was nice. Just outside is a tiny beach. But this was not worth my time nor money.

My group of 40 colleagues had a private party at Point Lookout Clam Bar and had private access to the back deck and even a small beach!
The food was delicious and the view magnificent. I highly recommend going at sunset!

We had a lovely experience enjoying seafood at this spot, with a fantastic location overlooking the bay. The view of the sunset was truly breathtaking and added to the ambiance of the meal. However, one downside was the use of plastic cutlery, cups, and plates. It detracted from the overall dining experience and seemed excessive, especially when enjoying such fresh seafood. Switching to more sustainable or reusable options would greatly enhance the experience. Overall, great food and views, but the plasticware left room for improvement.

I would give it less but there aren’t - Stars ! The fries were small and burned and the shrimp was hard and tasteless + the Prices are Waaaaay Overpriced !

Best spot on the South Shore for eats and views. Situated adjacent to Jones Inlet - gorgeous.

Food was ok, there really wasn't much service, other than someone bringing you your order. The person at the window taking the order was very helpful. Getting a parking spot was a big problem.

Beautiful, fun place to eat with great sunset views. Unfortunately in my experience the food can be great or pretty bad depending on the day. Yesterday and once before I got bitter rubbery scallops and hard rice, tho it was edible. Most other times the food was very good. I think it might have to do with how many people show up on the order line at once. Last night it was a long line. If you see a long line it might be worth waiting until it thins out. I still like the place tho

Every time we come to the USA and leave from JFK we make a stop here. The atmosphere is unique: a kind of pier restaurant where you can order and eat fresh fish cooked in various ways; fried, grilled or raw. This year we chose grilled cod, seafood salad, fresh prawns and fried calamari. Everything is very good. We were also lucky enough to park right in their lot. The staff is nice. Especially the South American lady who cleaned the tables, simply splendid. Mike the owner is also very good. We will return on the next trip

Nice atmosphere on the water. For the price, the food isn't bad. Kind of like a bar on the water.

Great food, excellent service, and awesome location. You can watch the sunset and enjoy fresh seafood. The shrimp cocktail was a meal in itself. Very clean and casual. Would definitely recommend it. Come early as the lines sometimes are a little long. But well woth the wait.
Parking: It's a little tough if the parking lot is full. You would need to wait a little bit as street parking is not allowed.
Best summer view
