Given the quality of Mexican food in Manhattan, if I find a Mexican restaurant I like elsewhere, I’ll visit it over and over. That’s the case with Blue Parrot, which is tucked away behind Main Street in East Hampton. The menu features Mexican staples like ceviche, guacamole, mussels and empanadas and interesting large plates like […]

La Fondita

Stop here if you’re in the mood for traditional Mexican street food made from fresh local ingredients. The menu isn’t particularly inventive with the typical selection of tacos, burritos, tostadas, tortas and large plates, but the quality is outstanding. And that’s what matter, right? Plus, the fresh guacamole and array of homemade salsas make it […]

Townline BBQ

It’s hard to resist the welcoming, wafting scent of BBQ, especially when sitting in slow-moving traffic on 27. Townline BBQ is an inexpensive, counter-service, wooden shack-esque place with great fried mac and cheese and cornbread. I’ve not had the ribs and brisket, but people I’ve dined with have liked both. Corner of Townline Road and […]

YamaQ-1

Yama-Q

We love this tiny sushi restaurant for its fresh fare and inventive menu. While sushi staples form the base, entrees like shitake-crusted tofu, duck quesadillas and black bean burritos add an alluring twist. Since it’s always packed with a long wait to boot, it’s best to go during the week or have a back-up plan. […]

Nick & Toni’s

Nick & Toni’s is one of our favorite go-to spots in East Hampton. The menu is comprised of simple and delicious dishes made with fresh local ingredients. The interior is designed to resemble a Tuscan farmhouse, though during the busy summer months you’ll never get a glimpse of the actual structure through the crowd. The […]

Fourchette-1

La Fourchette à Droit

If you’re in the mood for a casserole, stop by La Fourchette à Droit, just off Place d”Armes. Although the casseroles like jugged hare with mushrooms and 7-hour lamb shanks set this restaurant apart, the rest of the menu is appealing as well, offering soups, salads, seafood and meat. ‪‪5, avenue Monterey‬, Luxembourg City ‪L-2163 […]

Little Red, Southampton, NY

Little Red

A new bistro with a covered outdoor patio, Little Red has an appealing New American menu featuring basic, local dishes. I had a lobster roll, which contained a satisfying amount of meat and was served on an untoasted roll with a side of thick, hand-cut chips. A British dining companion noted that the linguini with […]
