Inspired by classic Mexican summer houses in Cuernavaca and Valle de Bravo, El Verano in Southampton has firmly established its reputation over the last few seasons for upscale, modern Mexican cuisine. Owned by Chef Julian Medina, the flagship restaurant relies heavily on local, seasonal ingredients to power its celebrated, high-end menu. Following the massive success of their launch last year, the restaurant’s two adjacent outdoor concepts are fully locked in as local warm-weather fixtures.

Located right next door to the main dining room, the El Verano Taco Lot returns to offer its casual, outdoor Mexico City-style taqueria experience. Patrons can head out to the picnic tables to enjoy relaxed, street-style crowd favorites like Queso Fundido and hearty birria tacos. Chef Medina has also brought back his unique signature twists, including a premium Lobster Roll served alongside refreshing specialty sips like frozen margaritas and a Mexican Arnold Palmer crafted with hibiscus tea and limeade.

Simultaneously, El Farm Market is back in full swing just down the block at 101 Jobs Lane. Operating in partnership with Chelsea Laviano, this specialty market remains a go-to neighborhood hub for farm-fresh prepared foods and a rotating selection of local, seasonal vegetables. Beachgoers and locals can swing by to stock up on Chef Medina’s signature guacamole, roasted tomato salsa, and artisanal dips. The market also features an array of premium grab-and-go sandwich options, including a Lobster BLT, a classic French Dip, and authentic Mexican Tortas.
