34 Best Seafood Restaurants near Southampton

“@fred terry made this spot on the stretch what it is today. @gingerbreadUniversity, Gingerbread Fred, Fred Terry, My ol' boss at the Lobster Roll Northside on Sound Ave in Riverhead, NY... This man and his business lifelong accomplice, Chef Pete are the customer based/retail version of why and how I got into food. Fred, Pete, Sous/Exec Jorge, Brandon, and yes... even Justin taught me the lines and roles of each station in a restaurant. Honey, I was green and sad and super motivated. These guys rode me like white on fkn rice. Due to that whoo-hah, I can carry my own brigade and make a killing in the raw arena. Fred was a master at his craft 60ish years ago and still is - encouraging line cooks to expound and expand 20+ years down the line. forever grateful.“

“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!“

“Capt. Phil and his team delivered an awesome beach party last night in Southampton. From appetizers to dessert everything was superb. Freshest clams ever, with Phill shucking non-stop for our guests. The lobster was good and the steak was excellent. Tables were beautifully set with lanterns and torches down the beach plus a giant bonfire! Best for me: they did EVERYTHING PERFECTLY, so we really got to socialize with our friends. Our guests were raving, (even our most jaded Hamptons friends). This was an event to remember and I will always be thankful to Capt. Phil and his extraordinary team!“

“Fabulous!! Went to a charity event for Dancing thru the Decades.....the staff, the music, the atmosphere were great....and the food was fantastic!!! Kudos to the Chef!!! Best Chautea Briand mashed potatoes, broccoli rabe ever!! Definitely recommend!!!“

“It was a wonderful evening in many ways! We arrived about 15 minutes early. We were escorted to our table. Turned out that we requested another one and we were then seated at another table. Server immediately came to our table. We ordered cocktails- Sag Harbor Sangria which was amazing. Fabulous appetizers- which were shared among the three of us- Brussel sprouts, shishito peppers and Salad. The main course was delish Halibut! Our server was very attentive throughout our meal. She personally suggested an Apple dessert! Amazing to say the least. In all it was a wonderful evening!“

“Service was excellent, ambiance 10/10. Food came in a timely manner and we wanted for nothing. Ordered the Cacio e Pepe, branzino and the rigatoni ragu special. Everything was delicious but having had the ragu special, the bolognese and the amatriciana pasta dishes here in the last month- they all taste the same. I'm sure the other dishes have a varied flavor profile but the meat sauces all have the same flavor and lack the oomph of a really good sauce.“

“Yesterday we had a girls day from work and went to get some lobster rolls. OMG 😲 it was the best of the best. We had a variety of lobster tacos, fritters, shrimp and fries, Cajun lobster rolls, lobster bisque. Everything was made to order, fresh and absolutely delicious 😋 💯. Worth the trip from Hempstead, NJ, Greenlawn and Mastic. Will go again.“

“Looking for a good meal at a reasonable price in Southampton? Wait no longer!! This is primarily a fish market, but they have a take-out kitchen that prepares all sorts of great meals. The fish and chips (house made chips, not fries) with Cole slaw was a steal at its price as were the clam strips. A full range of typical fried/broiled seafood items are also available. The fresh fish looks great and they have enough grocery items so a quick seafood dinner can be made with the fish you just bought, as well a sauces and chowders. Has moved to the top of my list for places not to miss in town.“

“Always a great time! Ian and Chris are amazing and the whole staff is great!“

“Last night at Cowfish Restaurant with my family was truly special. The service was amazing from start to finish. Our waitress, Gabby, was absolutely fantastic attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. I had a small issue with my salad and the manager Jason, came right over to the table. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. He was professional, accommodating. Thanks to Gabby and Jason, our evening was the best.!!!! We'll definitely be back!“

“Food and service was wonderful!“

“The food here is so fresh! We came here on a whim after a trip to the beach and ended up eating there every night we were in east Hampton! Such incredible fish and just really well seasoned food! The staff were lovely and the food was really well priced especially for the area which is known for being quite expensive!“

“I chose Oaklands to host my sister's memorial. Everything was perfect, food, staff, and ambience. Thanks again Christine ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food is excellent! The rum punch is to die for! The ambiance is great“

“Really great tasting fish! I got the fish and chips and both were fired perfectly. Tartar sauce was good but ask for an extra one as one is not enough. Be careful on weekend lunch hour as it gets packed and also the food seems to be rushed and doesn't come out as great which would give the rating of 4.5. But overall lovely food and I always come here every summer.“

“Ame mi estadía y boda en este lugar .los chicos de la atención muy atentos todo súper Nice , quede súper satisfecha con el servicio y el lugar es hermoso 😍“

“Wow, for us to be seated party of four, to be expected on a Sunday afternoon. Ordered the swordfish and it was very good. Ordered the Keylime pie for dessert and it was not quite up to my expectations. Very creamy, but I am taste was lacking and the crust was a little overcooked that the experience was very good. I get back into the neighborhood I will stop again.“

“The food is wonderful here!“

“Great for vegetarians and vegans. It was really good. It’s tiny inside. This is like a great quality Mexican inspired diner. I will totally go again. It’s fast paced inside, and they are on it.
I had one of the best vegetarian meals I’ve had in a long time. They do a lot of take out orders, I might do that next time because they are very busy and I don’t want to be rushed to finish my meal.

Vegetarian options: Great for vegetarians and vegans!!“

“Had a very wonderful evening spent at Arman and Judy last week. Most importantly, the food was outstanding with the best french fries I think I've ever tasted and a delicious steak. Judy was gracious as always, even though she was shorthanded that night one would not have known it. Highly recommend for a pleasant evening all around. Paula“
