Best Brunch Restaurants in Southampton

Wonderful dining experience. The food is excellent and it's obvious they have a passion to serve delicious food and want to see their customers leave happy. The menu is unique and not generic like most other restaurants in the area. I highly recommend dining here. You will not be disappointed. I've been coming out to Watermill for over 30 years and this restaurant is by far one of my favorites.

Summary: One of the best restaurants in Sag Harbor, great view from the upper floor (especially before nightfall), a welcoming ambiance, and prompt service. The food aspires to Top Chef status, but when we were there on Thanksgiving Day, 2024, it didn't quite make that cut. The two starter courses (I had soup and a generous portion of crabmeat) and desserts were fantastic, but my main course choice of traditional turkey seemed to be a pileup of dark meat left over from other customers' preference for white meat. But we had a good time, and the customers were a pleasant mix of families and friends. Since it is part of a hotel, the restaurant was open on Thanksgiving when many restaurants were closed, and we were grateful to get a reservation anywhere close to the day. The price was fair given the day. On Open Table, I don't remember any warning that there would be a $99 prix fixe per person for a four-course meal, plus tax and the required 21% tip (plus a suggested option to add more). This could add up to a surprise for a family. The restaurant website in one place says there is a $50 per person cancellation fee. and in another, it says $100 per person. But these are minor quibbles. I recommend this place.

Great atmosphere! The restaurant was packed. The Caesar salad was very much a surprise as it was one of the best I’ve had in a casual restaurant-highly recommend. Smash burger was yummy. Delicious Prosecco accompanied my meal. I love the place. Looking forward to the expansion. The owner has worked tirelessly to be “more” than a restaurant owner. He is so supportive of his hometown community-a man for others.

We always enjoy our time at the Publick House. We start with the Happy Hour (4-7) at the bar, then sit in the dining room for dinner. The Tuesday night 2-4-1 entrees are an amazing deal, and delicious. Always great, friendly service. Highly recommend!
