Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Hampton Bays

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.

Wonderful food, attentive service, but very noisy. Cries out for a carpet or any sound abatement that might allow conversation at a table for 2 to4. Miss the old original Gurney’s corny Italian rococo decor that was a relief from the now ubiquitous “ zen”running to “ Amish “ look of un inviting plain colorless Uber simple gray fixtures. Looks as if it was decorated by Monks who have taken a vow of poverty. Art work is all black, gray and during late fall no view of gorgeous ocean after early sunset. No music either but the noise would drown it out anyway. Very pricey for teensy portions.

This is the second year I’ve came to Prime to celebrate Thanksgiving (with standard menu) . Outstanding food + service , ambience is always so warm and welcoming love the decor and vibe of the restaurant . Professional staff and the food is worth making the 45 minute drive from south shore to dine ! Will be coming back next year ! Cheers to the Executive Chef + Kitchen Staff the food is always impeccable

This has been our 3rd year spending Thanksgiving at the Halyard and each year it has been wonderful ! The buffet food choices are perfect and delicious ! Very elegant you don’t feel like you are at a typical buffet ! Fireplace , beautiful Soundviews, and a feeling of ambiance ! We will definitely be returning !

Always great..... Food and Staff always top notch...
