Fran and Susan are the best bartenders you could ever want! This place is right on the water and has amazing sunset views but they don't take reservations so make sure to get here early. They always have changing specials and fresh seafood. They did open up a new location and that menu is a little bit different. We ended up doing the macadamia crusted halibut and the sauce that it came in will live rent free in my head forever! The parking is an open rock lot so sometimes it is full and it expands into the road on the harbor. read more

Bostwick's on the Harbor - Macadamia crusted halibut - Seafood Near Me - East Hampton, New York

A busy Mother's Day lead to a wait but we finally got seated at a beautiful open window area overlooking the bay . Perfect setting for a lovely dinner . Picked a few shareable dishes Bistro calamari on a bed of Asian style noodles - unique serving style which tasted good though but acidic for my taste Tile fish with basil rice & crab meat was a pretty plate and darn tasty. Fish was silky breaking off with a slight nudge sitting in a bed of basil rice flanked by carb meat . A tumultuous mouthful knowing me off my feet . Dessert pick was Key lime pie . The custard was delicious but the crust felt a bit too thick and hard . Good food with quick service in a noisy setup with an uplifting backdrop .. it's a must at the Hamptons read more

I know a guy who says the food here is great and the prices are just as great also so go

Good food and a great view. The service was great and our meal was served quickly. Everyone enjoyed their meal (duck was a bit tough to eat without a steak knife). Halibut and seafood pasta were delicious. read more

Bostwick's on the Harbor - Sunset view from Bostwick's - Seafood Near Me - East Hampton, New York

Amazing seafood. Everything is so fresh and great. It has an amazing vibe and it isn't like the modern day Hamptons, making it the best place. The service is great and the people are so nice. read more

Fast, great service, nice people, down to earth fun atmosphere, like an old school seafood restaurant and all the dishes have fresh ingredients. Absolutely everything on the menu is a winner! read more

The fish I had (Halibut) and the Montauk fluke was out of this world. Served in large soup bowls it had just the right sweet, sour, tart, pungent flavors with a great sauce and presentation. Great key lime pie. Although pricey(it's the Hamptons) I would recommend this place! read more

$55 corkage fee per bottle. Not to be confused with $28 corkage fee at Bostwick's Chowder house. Honest mistake but too bad. They don't post this fee and our server did not confirm the fee when she asked if we had bought the bottle at the bar. Soured our otherwise beautiful sunset and wonderful company. Appalled by the manager's stoic response and server's sass. I'm sure they don't need our business because they don't take reservations and you'll likely have to wait for a table even on a Monday night. Will spend $200 elsewhere next time. read more

Always stop here at least 3x when we're in the area. Delicious seafood. Great views! Recommend getting there early since they don't take reservations read more

Food is very good. Specializes in seafood, of course. Tuna appetizer is always great. Choices of fried food-clams, fish, and lobster rolls. Service is always very friendly and helpful. read more

While the appetizer mussels, the main Yellowfin Tuna and service were great, it's disappointing when portion sizes don't match expectations--especially for something like swordfish $39(4-bite size). A bit more on the plate would have made it perfect! read more

We came here on a day trip to the Hamptons and had a wonderful dinner! The restaurant is right on the harbor (as the name would suggest lol) and it felt so luxurious to be eating next to a stunning view of the sunset over the dock and sailboats. The food itself was excellent - for apps, we shared the fish tacos and the baked clams (both super yummy!). I wasn't super hungry so got the fig salad for my main entree and it didn't disappoint. Service was attentive. A truly memorable meal! read more

This place is a reminder of life. It has its ups and downs. When the food comes out right, it is great. But when it comes out wrong, it sucks. The food when it came out right was AMAZING... BUT.... we had to send it back once before they got it ri The Shishito peppers were amazing. The scallops (when cooked properly) were very good. Our server was great. The ambiance is very casual. Overall I would rate this spot a 3.5 read more

Delicious, friendly service, happy vibe. Fun in the summer at the outdoor tables. Excellent blood orange margaritas.

This was excellent. We started with the baked clams and burrata, then got two specials -- a crab-stuffed flounder and a blackened halibut. Every dish was great, although the real star of the meal was the key lime pie we got for dessert. (We also got a brownie sundae, which we also liked.) The fish and chips on the kids menu was also excellent. Definitely a good candidate for a return trip -- I think I preferred this to most other similar seafood places in the Hamptons. read more

Love this place! Frat drinks. Great bartender. Fun place. The food is good and very reasonable

Eat here. Ima keep this review short and to the point. The view of the setting sun plus the expertly prepared food plus the good company and spirits and good service to boot made this one of the most enjoyable dining experiences in recent history. When I visit the area again, I will eat here again. Do not order the peppers from the appetizer menu. They are some sort of fried sweet peppers. That's all. Maybe it's a local thing I don't understand, but it was a no for the entire table. You will thank me later. read more

1 star for the view, that's it. Had one of the worst dining experiences as a group of 4 last month. When we checked in, we were told the waitlist was 45 mins. After a 90 mins wait, and seeing a lot of groups who came after us were seated, our group was finally seated. (Mind you there is no reservations for this place and you get in line when you get there). Then the real drama happened during our meal. There was all bunch of service issues with getting waiter attention, ordering drinks and actually receiving them - which all took forever. We actually tried to order our food as we were ordering our drinks and the waiter ran away without doing it. I ordered one of the seafood specials and my friend ordered a surf & turf, waiter asked about how she wanted it cooked etc. She has tree nut allergies and told the waiter about it, and the waiter wrote it down, provided recommendations and we told all was good. Then, when the food arrived, they brought something completely different to her (AND WITH TREE NUTS IN IT) and tried to convince her that this was what she ordered. On my side, I got my order but even before touching my food, I saw a hair on it. I asked about it, the waiter took back my plate, and brought it back in 2 mins. I asked her if she just took the hair out and brought it back to me as is and she said yes!!!! At that moment, I told them I don't want to eat it and I returned it. Seeing my friend going through her stuff, which was quite serious, I didn't want to order anything else. In the end, they brought what my friend ordered and they didn't charge me for the food I returned. They covered our drinks at the end, which was nice, but not enough to forget the awful experience. I was really excited about this place, but won't be going back ever again. read more

Bostwick's is the perfect place to watch the sunset. The food is excellent! The only downside is they don't take reservations. A typical wait time for us has been 30 min to an hour and a half. You can wait in the bar area an have a drink while you wait, and if you are lucky enough to grab a couple of bar stools you can enjoy an appetizer. Highly recommend Bostwick's on the Harbor! read more

We returned last night to Gann Rd, home again to a Bostwicks. Bostwicks on the Harbor is home to consistently excellent food, solid drinks, and phenomenal sunsets, and last night we got a little of each. It's important to note that they don't take reservations, but you can stop by after four pm and leave your name, so we send someone to put our name in at 5:45 to get a table at 7. otherwise you can just go, drink and wait. The waiter fired off the specials, there were 2 appetizer specials but at 7pm they were already out of their striped bass entree special. Our friends ordered the artichoke salad special, and the tuna tostada, i ordered steamers and a lobster roll, my go to at beach bars, and my wife ordered the duck, which they were also out of, so she settled for the fluke, not her favorite. The steamers were large and tasty, and my lobster roll was tops, and accompanied by fruit slices and killer French fries. The tuna tostadas were excellent, pretty much everything we ordered was great, although my wife's fluke was just ok. The waiter came over to give us the dessert options: a molten chocolate Cake with chocolate ice cream. Wait, chocolate ice cream? Can we get vanilla? No, they were out of vanilla ice cream. How do you run out of vanilla ice cream? We were told it was a supply chain issue, which would be rectified the next day. Other options included key lime pie, our choice, and almond cake, also served with chocolate ice cream. The pie was fine. Key lime is always good, so no complaints. The sunset developed beautifully while we were there, and we had a sunset side table, but the restaurant was remarkably loud for an open air place. So much so we could barely hear each other across the table. In all the experience rated a four, and if they had all the options, and we could have ordered the duck, it probably would have been closer to A five. Highly recommend. read more

My 4 stars is a very good not just good!!!!! I sat at the bar, and the bar tender, she was great. Friendly, happy and more than welcoming. We decided together I should order the fluke. Mostly because it is a local fish and as fresh as can be, and it was everything I had hoped it would be and even more. The flavorful rice it sat on top of was a great carb along with perfectly cooked asparagus. I started with New England clam chowder, and it was tasty but a tad too thick. Crowded for an mid-June Monday but I found a seat at the bar at around 715 PM. maybe the restaurant with the best view in the Hamptons, particularly for sunset. As is the case in all of the East End restaurants, you will not find a deal. All are expensive. Bostwick's is a bit too as well. But if you are going to pay a premium, you may was well eat good, well-prepared food and that's exactly what you can expect here. read more

Best dinner in East Hampton! Service was wonderful! They don't take reservations, but the wait was well worth it.

Love, love, love this place! The view! The food! I had the fig salad and the steamers and my husband had a rib special and swordfish on our most recent visit. But it is always consistently good. Great cocktail menu too. read more

Well, four years later and my review is about the same?! Food par excellence. Service sub par. When one spends $48 & $39 per entree, service should be commensurate with the price tag and food quality. I think one would expect: 1. to be asked if they want a beverage before one gets ones food 2. to be asked how their food is sometime during the consumption process 3. and for a table for two know who gets what food; after all this isn't just a place swinging burgers! 4. to be asked if they would like desert. But, nooooooo......! read more

Beautiful views, terrific food and great service. Our little guy loved looking at all the boats. Seafood was very fresh and delicious.

Lovely atmosphere, fantastic food. The sunset, the ease of a beautiful September evening. read more

Loved this place!!! Came here with some friends and their parents for a nice meal on a Saturday night. We were told we had to wait ~45 minutes for our table but were actually seated within 25. We went over to the bar area to wait for our table and got our drinks really quickly! I loved the blood orange margarita. We started with some oysters for the table that were just delicious and succulent. I didn't even need any of the side sauces to add to the flavor. The steamed mussels were also amazing. They were steamed in a Thai coconut curry sauce that I could have literally drank. I ordered the herb-panko crusted local fluke, and it was quite literally one of the best fish dishes I've had. The fish was flaky and tender. The crust added a great bite, and I loved the lemon sauce that they added on top of the seasoned rice. Overall, a great place with a wonderful atmosphere and view. I will definitely return when back in the Hamptons. read more

Such a pretty view Three Mile Harbor and some of the best seafood in town Damien serves up magical taste delights for us A must visit in season Lovely local wait staff read more

If you are looking for a great place to watch the sunset with excellent consistently good food this is the place. The view of the marina and the sun setting is very very nice. They have picnic tables down below if you have young children which makes it a breeze. The wait staff are really good when they see you have babies. We enjoy their happy hour when we don't have our children with us. This is a fun airy place with good food and a pleasant helpful staff. The cocktails are really good too. read more

Love this place- been coming here since the 90s amazing views great food and awesome Sunsets - try the lobster

Nice atmosphere & pretty view, but long wait. Food is good & good quality, but not breathtaking. We had the burrata (very nice and refreshing!), fluke (good, but missing some flavor tbh), and crab cakes. read more

I go here once a year as a treat. It's beautiful and has the best sunsets. Service is iffy. Long wait time. Food is very good!

I've always loved this original location of Bostwick's and so nice to see they've reopened it again. You have beautiful west facing views of the water, with California sunsets. Easy parking (own lot right by the marina) The food is the same tasty, consistently good Seafood that Bostwick's is known for. Nothing too over the top or experimental - just good American seafood. We had a very friendly and helpful waitress who just made the whole experience so nice. read more

Average food. Overpriced. Loud, unrelaxing dining experience. Unhappy wait staff. Horribly long wait. One of the most awful dining experiences in the Hamptons. The single star is for the view. So sad. This was one of my favorites. I have been coming here for 18 years. read more

Come for the ambience. Beautiful location and it's a local favorite (I'm not a local of course). My advice: stick to their classics (lobster rolls) and skip any asian-themed/inspired dishes and side dishes (rice and bok choy prep was laughable)--it's not their strong suit and overpriced (it's in the Hamptons!). Otherwise, highly recommended for the Hampton local experirence. read more

Go for the view not the food. Had chicken Milanese the chicken was pounded so thin that it was basically breadcrumbs dried out. The truffle fries had zero truffle taste and were cold. The menu not great. Vegan option was terrible. Next time maybe just go for a drink. read more

Good food and drink, lotsa fun, beautiful waterfront setting. Go there! Stick with the seafood. Bostwick's is a natural.

Too expensive for just okay food and quite a scene, always packed. Service okay. View is great, it's a lovely location. Just meh.. pretty much wraps up the whole Hamptons "thing" read more
