Restaurants in Hampton Bays, Southampton, & Westhampton Beach: According to
The Hamptons’ dining scene continues to expand, blending local farms, coastal influences, and world-class chefs. These are some of the standout restaurants shaping where to eat now.
Seven Beach Lane
This locavore-minded newcomer sources from Balsam Farms, Early Girl Farms, Catapano Dairy Farm, and Amagansett Sea Salt. The menu celebrates the season with dishes like squid stuffed with spinach and garlic sausage, broiled Peconic oysters, agnolotti with lobster and summer truffle, Montauk fluke with squash, and roasted mushrooms over grilled polenta.
Amalfi Coastal Kitchen
Opened by Sal Biundo, formerly of Centro, this waterfront spot offers starters like mezze with fava bean hummus and apricot-hot honey ricotta, along with Sicilian artichokes and calamari. Entrees range from chicken Parm pizza for two to skirt steak with chimichurri and truffle fries.
Good Ground Tavern
At Canoe Place Inn, chef Edwin Alvarracin (formerly of Le Bernardin, Manhatta, and Artisanal) brings a refined touch to poolside dining. Highlights include cherrywood grilled oysters, corn soup, day boat scallops, a rib-eye burger, and broccoli rabe pizza.
R. Aire
Located in the Hampton Maid hotel, this Spanish spot features fresh sardines with garlic parsley picada, crispy artichokes with gorgonzola, and seafood paella made with mussels, shrimp, clams, and sofrito. A Sunday special offers paella for two with sangria — a rare Hamptons bargain.
Pop-Up by Rocco
Celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito’s coastal Italian pop-up brings pane carasau, Iberico ham, and farmstand crudités to the table. Pasta dishes like paccheri pesto rosso shine, while halibut with orange beurre blanc and aged ribeye round out the menu. Don’t miss the chocolate gianduja crunch cake.
La Goulue Sur Mer
This offshoot of the famed New York bistro is already drawing a chic crowd. Expect escargots, steak frites, roasted chicken, seared salmon with lentils, and rack of lamb, paired with fine French wines. A standout dessert reimagines the Kit-Kat with chocolate hazelnut and vanilla ice cream.
