Delicious food with beautiful water views of the bay. This place is NOT cheap. But, we live once. Right? Luncher's check off what they want off a menu sheet. You leave your seat and take your paper and your choices, and pay at a separate window. Your waiter is reduced to a food server. If you want another round you'll need to start over. I find the process ridiculous, time consuming and a pain in the ass. read more

Way overpriced subpar and mediocre food. Served in a snotty atmosphere with an attitude. Parking lot was pretty much empty when I went. The only customers there were the bling set from the Hamptons who came in their expensive little mini yachts. On top of that, they charge you $8 dollars for tap water! The cheapest glass of wine is $18! This is not the Hamptons and is NOT what the Nortfork needs. This restaurant is completely out of place and out of tune to what this community represents. It completely ruins what makes the Northfork different (and more genuine) from the Hamptons. Bear in mind, this restaurant is owned by a Wall Street Southamptonite. If you like throwing out your hard earned money and enriching the 1 percent even more, then go at it. read more

CHICKEN GATE First off nobody should ever eat here. Worst service I've ever seen in my entire life. The food was bad and the service was even worse. We ordered a gyro (you pay up front) and they brought everything out so late that most people in our party had finished eating the sub par food. They waited until after all of that mediocracy to say that there were no more gyros and asked for a replacement entree. We had an almost $500 bill so we were expecting the chicken to be free but they charged it. We talked to the manager and she preceded to snatch the chicken from the table after they put it down when we tried to protest the charge. The manager got snippy with us and needless to say we will never step foot in this establishment again. Horrible service and they should be ashamed read more

CHICKEN SNATCHED. I kid you not I waited 30+ minutes to receive my meal. All of my friends had already finished eating- and at the last second they told me they were all out of falafel gyros. I figured when they asked me for my meal replacement that it would be complimentary. I was horribly wrong. They charged me for the full replacement meal, and when I told the manager that I figured this would be complimentary due to the horrendous amount of waiting and lack of communication- that I may get the chicken for free. I proceeded to tell her I didn't want the $85 dollar chicken if I was going to be charged. THE MANAGER SENT A WAITER OVER AND THEY SNATCHED MY CHICKEN AWAY. I WAS LEFT WITH NO DINNER. THEY THREW OUT A ENTIRE ROAST CHICKEN. read more

Went to their Beach Club- my first time here and was hesitant to even come here because of the low reviews but they definitely surpassed my expectations. Definitely great and responsive service! And the food and drink are great. Gotta get the calamari and octopus skewers. Relaxing out here at the edge of Long Island having their cucumber cooler on their nice sand and listening to their DJ music- Cheers! read more

Everything about this place was great. View was gorgeous, food was good, servers were friendly and helpful. I just can't help but feel like we're missing an opportunity here. If you've spent time in Europe and gone to their beach clubs it's just.... So awesome. This place is totally cultivating the vibe of scorpios in Mykonos but just hasn't gone full send. Scrap the restaurant aesthetic, Charge me $200 entry, and let's go full beach beds + outdoor shower or some other way to cool off. I'll spend the whole day here and pretend I'm in the south of France. Overall, they got like 60% of the way to my euro dream club (props on the vibey DJ) and I had a great lunch, but I'm desperate for a Long Island Nikki beach. You guys can be it! I'll give you all my money! PS if you're reading this, think it's a good idea, and have a food and beverage background message me. Let's start the Long Island beach club we all need. read more

I wish I could leave zero stars, because this resturant deserves none. We came in as a group of 8, excited to try the food after receiving multiple recommendations of friends and family to come here. We ordered and the food did not all come together. Plates of foods came in every other 10 minutes. Finally everyone's food came in and my friend was still waiting for her food. At this point, everyone else at the table had already FINISHED their plate. She asked where her Falafel Gyro plate was only for them to tell her they did not have it anymore. From the very start, when we ordered, they failed to let us know about this leading my friend to order another dish. Her plate of chicken came and you would think because of the inconvenience it would be complementary, but was not. No apologies, nothing. My friend goes up to the manager to complain and receive an explanation. The manager was so rude, uncommunicative and decided to snatch the plate off the table. I have never seen this level of unprofessionalism and wasteful behavior. Food that was already prepared and cooked to be thrown in the trash. On top of that, everyone around us was getting great service but my table. We spent good money here and deserved better. Do better and DO NOT go here. read more

Walking up to Dureya's you are instantly transported on vacation. Even the harshest of critics could all agree that this restaurant is stunning. Seated at a corner table, we felt relaxed and comfortbale yet the energy of the restaurant makes you feel special. Throughout our dinner the staff was friendly, accommodating, and checked on our table the right amount of times. We were never with an empty glass. We went to celebrate a birthday with a group of six so we were lucky to try many of the dishes. We started with a seafood tower and everything was perfect and delicious down to the dips for the jumbo shrimp and crab. Actually, speaking of dips.. any and all of their dips, dressings, and sauces on each of their dishes could be bottled and sold - they are truly that good. We tried the crab falafel croquettes, rock salt baked shrimp (my fav), and greek melon salad to start. Each dish that came to our table was plated for a photography shoot but so appetizing and flavorful that you had to dig in quickly and go back for seconds (and thirds). For mains we split the grilled lobster pasta and the lemon pepper chicken which had some of the best grilled vegetables I've ever had and that I continue to rave about (That grilled lettuce and crushed potatoes.....yum). If you are looking at this review, do yourself a favor and go and celebrate with your friends and family with a meal that will make you feel special on any night of the week. read more

I don't understand the negative reviews... I love ordering on the menu and walking up my order, some restaurants in Manhattan have also started doing this. If you are from the city (second home owner) or coming from the Hamptons, you know the deal, this place is amazing, upscale, beautifully decorated, beautiful people. The food, the ambience are fantastic. I'm thrilled they opened on the North Fork. My husband and I ordered the lobster cob salad for two. It was delicious, so large we couldn't finish it. We ordered a pitcher of margherita. There was such a nice breeze , the DJ was great (lounge music, not crazy club), the decor is beautiful and relaxing. The wait staff are nice and professional. I love the pitcher and the bottle of sparking water at the table , very European to do this, I absolutely hate when waitstaff interrupt my convo to pour water or wine, (leave me alone I can do it myself, thank you Duryeas). You are not rushed out or pestered by wait staff, perfectly relaxing and beautiful view of the bay and boats pulling into the marina. read more

We arrived at 9:02 on a Friday night in July and were told the restaurant closed at 9:00. There were many patrons still dinning, so I asked if they would allow us to quickly eat. We promised we understood the time situation and would be quick - still NO. We left and went to Porto Bello which was FANTASTIC! I recommend you skip Duryea's and go to Porto Bello. read more

I was placed in an extremely embarrassing and disappointing position by this establishment. It was my birthday and my boyfriend and I decided to travel to Long Island from Boston to celebrate. We booked a reservation 30 days prior and we were so excited to try the lobster Cobb salad while enjoying some drinks on the waterfront. We showed up on time to our reservation and once we approached the hostess she told us she could not seat us on the "beach area" because of my a service animal. I have a 15 lb hypoallergenic licensed service animal due to my seizure disorder. I then explained to the hostess the ADA rules and regulations and provided my service dog ID card. She did not take a peak at the card and continued to embarrass me in front of the other customers waiting to be seated. She told us to head to the restaurant hostess as they could seat us there instead. Once we got to that hostess she then told us we could not be seated inside the restaurant or deck area due to having an animal and they could seat us in the waiting area near the parking lot where other customers were waiting for their tables to be ready. It was an extremely embarrassing and awkward situation. They made me feel ashamed for having a disability that I have no control over and I just wanted to go enjoy the restaurant how everyone else could, not be seated on a bench in the parking lot. When I asked to speak to the manager they told me to sit over by the parking lot and after 25 minutes of waiting I just felt like my birthday was unfortunately ruined. Having a service dog draws attention and but sitting there for almost 30 minutes I felt like everyone was staring/whispering about the outcast shoved away to the outskirts of the restaurant. We then went on to go to Claudio's down the road and had a delicious meal and drink on the water, with our service dog and no questions asked. If you have a disability don't bother coming here. They will make you feel ashamed and unwanted. read more

There is no service and the price is ridiculously expensive. There are so many great restaurants on the north fork - this is not one of them

Really fun and relaxing environment. They have an outdoor grill where the food is prepared and the food is very fresh & made to order. Fun DJ and helpful staff! Would recommend for a fun date! read more

I want to give this place a better review but just can't. It is overpriced. Food just not good enough for these prices. Tomatoes were tasty. Mussels not so much. They were small. Not sure if they weren't fresh or something. Lobster roll decent but not worth the price. Seafood tower was good - shrimp were good. Lobster salad good. Ordering system is just plain weird and tipping at the counter before you get service is obnoxious. Hard pass next time read more

HORRIBLE. Highway robbery. Worst seafood restaurant I've ever been too. Made a yelp account solely to leave this review. EXTREMELY overpriced for TINY TINY TINY portions. Their snow crab dish was pathetic - 5 dinky claws the size of a nickel for $45. The restaurant itself is well decorated, but the prices and food quality/portions are atrocious. DO NOT GO HERE. If you're bored and hungry waiting for the ferry, you're better off eating the cheap ferry food, which is sad to say. read more

What an absolute trap for people who want to feel like they are big spenders. Hamburgers were $24 and we were told they were HUGE (not.). They charge you for bread. They charge you for water. The "family style" lobster roll was actually just a single one with some old sweet potato chips. The mussels were ok but no better than we would get at Croxley's for half the price. And wow! The service (lack thereof). You pay 240 dollars for two burgers, a small lobster roll, a bowl of mussels, a bottle of tap water and a bread basket and you have to submit your order with a pad and pencil, tip and all. Admittedly, we splurged and paid for another 5 piece bread basket. Because, well. We were hungry. Oh. And they did clear our table of dishes after we flagged down someone. And they didn't charge extra. What an absolute hoax. Avoid this place. They get one star because this app won't let you submit with no stars. read more

A much anticipated visit due to its high buzz. Took my gfs there two weeks ago since we were staying in Mattituck for the weekend ... did not feel welcomed as soon as we saw the hostess.. we given paper menus to check off menu items we wanted and bring them to the kitchen .. that's is we're you order & pay the astronomical prices ... most of the menu items are shareable .. the salads are brought out without mixing .. and very little lobster...the octopus is not good.. too much brown sauce ... the fountain sodas were not fizzing .., low carbonation... total bill was about $340 for 3 people, not including alcohol... the atmosphere was bleak.. too many women and men with their faces like plastic. The place is gorgeous, the decor is beautiful, their private beach is awesome, but will never return.. I like to pay top dollar for good food, this is not even close ... it's all a hype in my opinion... read more

This place is the epitome of misaligned expectations. Customer will think: I know I'll pay too much but how bad could it be- and hey what a view! Then they see the menu and realize it's time to be bent over and ramrodded. Well, the service will be good right? Hahaha no, you have to fill out what you want with a cheap pencil and deliver the list to a nicely-tiled prison meal dispensary window. Ok but the portions and quality are top notch? Yeah no- get lost- the food will be mostly subpar. Thirsty? Buzz off diner or pay $6 for unlimited water! What a travesty of an establishment. Great hats though- comfy and cool looking, so that garners one of the two stars featured here. read more

Chicken robbery in broad daylight. My experience tonight was disgraceful. First of all, we were charged for tap water which we were not notified about. Then they proceeded to make us fill out a paper sheet with our food requests and order at the front as if it was a fast food chain. It got worse.... they never served my friend's meal while everyone else slowly got theirs - she waited 30 mins for it until finally she spoke to a waiter before they finally told her they had no more of that option. Instead of giving her a complimentary meal due to the awful service, they charged her and then when we said we didn't think it was appropriate to charge extra for that meal they SNATCHED it after she had a few bites. A waiter came over and in front of the whole restaurant, grabbed it and threw an 80 dollar chicken away. I don't need to say much more. The manager watched it all happen and blamed all her staff which is extremely unprofessional. read more

Gorgeous atmosphere - love the lobster salad. A very special place if you are looking for something different. Come by boat if possible . read more

Horrible service. Ordered the gyro and it never came. Asked the waiter about it and then all of a sudden they had no gyro. 6/8 of people at the dinner finished their food. We replaced the gyro but after asking about the change in receipt, the newly (rushed), meal was taken away from the table. It was absolutely disrespectful. I'VE NEVER SEEN A FULL DISH BEING TAKEN AWAY FROM A CUSTOMER even after a few bites were consumed. Went home regretful of the money spent and hungry. Never coming back here again. Very rude. read more

horrible experience.... they snatched my clients chicken off of the table after they "forgot" to tell us they didn't have the original meal they ordered... if only they knew who my clients were... I feel bad for the poor waiters who have to deal with this awful management. My team and I will never be going here again. read more

The food was not the best, the fish didn't have any flavor whatsoever for $125 just the fish really overpriced. The Baby Calamari & Clams chorizo, garlic was all right. This place is only good to have a beer and listen to the DJ, Service was friendly but you order yourself at the cashier place pay and return to your table then the food is brought out to you when ready. this might have been the most disappointing meal at that price I have ever had. read more

I wish I could write a better review. Our family visit to Duryea was highly anticipated based on the buzz the restaurant receives. Please, do yourselves a favor, save your time and money, and go somewhere else. One of the top worst experiences ever. Starting at arrival, we are greeted by a pretentious host decked in Cartier bracelets (bizarre for a shack of a "restaurant" situated on a dock. No, don't be fooled by the posts talking about the view, there is no view to speak of). We sat down and as we were unaware of how orders are taken by the waiters, we go through a lengthy introduction - in short, you are given a piece of paper to mark the dishes and drinks you'd like to order and sent to stay in line to place your order. Nothing short of a run-down cafeteria. I guess the owners think it's cute. Everything we ordered was overpriced and of dubious quality. Cocktails run at $20 but all you are getting for that price is a small glass filled with ice to the top and some drops of a mixed drink. Dishes are outrageously priced but that would've been fine if the food was good. The Lobster Pasta, valued at $129, could not have been worse. This was the first time I ate pasta that was so tasteless, sautéed with some tomatoes and a lobster plopped on top. That was it. No, do not expect any freshly cracked black pepper, crushed red pepper, Parmigiano or anything else. We also ordered the Meze/Spread appetizer. While the portion was unnecessarily large and expensive, it wasn't that bad. We finished the pita bread that came with it and asked the waiter for some extra bread. You'd think that was an easy request? No, no. We had to fill out the card again and stay in line again to get some extra bread. Oh, and then, when we wanted to order more drinks, we had to go through the same drill. Absolutely comical. The Lobster Rolls were priced at $45 and were the smallest and tastless lobster rolls I have tried. Only the Gazpacho saved the day. Based on our family experience, we will never set foot at Duryea ever again. And will make sure we tell friends and family to avoid it at all costs. A friend told us that the Montauk location is equally underwhelming. There are so many great places to eat in the east part of Long Island. Duryea is not one of them. read more

Beautiful location and seating outside. Service was very nice & accommodating. There is a minimum for sitting at tables that goes up by party size. That is the only reason not giving 5 stars, def a pricey place! $$$ we would go back anyways. read more

Food was great atmosphere was great the only thing that kept it from the 5th star was the service. Having to check off what you wanted from a checklist and prepaying seem extremely impersonal. In the middle of meal we decided we needed a bread basket so we had to go tot he counter to order it and pay for the basket. We did it a second time for drinks also. So in total we made 3 separate transactions at this restaurant for food and drink. And all 3 we couldn't get it taken care of by a wait staff. We had to go inside and pay. read more

Beautiful place great ambiance but beware of the loud music while you try to eat! Food is wayyyyy overpriced. They charge you $2per person for drinking water. They have a full wine menu with not one single local wine to offer. Also you have to fill out your own menu and drop it off to the cashier and pay (and tip) before you even get the food. Food is subpar and overpriced. will never return read more

Prices went up and the amount of lobster in the Cobb salad went down. Like, I needed a magnifying lens, down. Friends and I headed here for this dish to share and were disappointed in what was given to us. We won't return. There used to be easily 3 lbs of lobster on this salad. $96 for lettuce is criminal. read more

I wish I had read the reviews before coming here and wasting my money. For this place to be considered a high end restaurant, it surely does not feel like it. You have to order off a paper menu, tally up what you want with a little pencil, then proceed to the front window to place the order and pay. What kind of service is that?! I felt like I had a kid's menu in my hand. To make things even better, you have to tip prior to receiving any service. This is truly inconvenient as you have to keep getting up to order whenever you want to order something else, another drink, etc. I ordered the lobster roll and it was so distasteful. It was so dry and the hot dog bun was freaking cold. The pitchers that they offer are pre-mixed and for a margarita they have Milagros as the tequila. A high end restaurant charging $85/pitcher but it's a shitty tequila? No, thank you. Forgot to mention - they don't have an open bar for you to order a margarita with your tequila of choice. Truly disappointing. The only thing this restaurant has going for itself, is the view and the decor. In my opinion, you could go to another restaurant and get better views and food. read more

Extremely overpriced. Low quality food (aside from the bread that you need to pay for). You need to order from a takeout menu and pay upfront (tipping is essentially forced upon you). Servers were nice, but we weren't offered a preference of eating inside or outside; outdoors was very windy and gasoline-infused from the boats right there. $42 for a very small, crappy lobster roll on potato bread with painfully salty chips really didn't sit well with us. A fortune of a meal that left us feeling frustrated and ripped off. Would not recommend. Certainly will not return. read more

In 140 characters or less: Immaculate atmosphere and service. Once you look past the beautiful restaurant, however, you're left with average food. Let's start off with the location. Duryea's is located right outside Orient State Park and overlooks the water. It's the perfect spot to watch the sunset -- they even have lounge chairs set out for guests. Both the outside and interior of the restaurant are stunning and closely replicate the feel of an upscale taverna on the Mediterranean without being gauche. The food feels overcooked and unnecessarily elaborate. With a restaurant like this you expect an extensive wine list and good seafood that speaks for itself without bells and whistles. Par exemple, all octopus really needs is to be charcoal grilled with olive oil and lemon. I could not taste the crab in the crab croquettes and the "deconstructed" falafel dish was unimpressive. Despite the price tag, the lobster cobb salad is absolutely worth it and can easily be an appetizer for a group of four to six. I also recommend the mussels and bread basket. I would come here for the view, service, and for select dishes. read more

This is a special place. On the water with its own small harbor where boats can dock and order dinner. The food is good, as is the service. COVID has created the ordering process of taking your order to a window, paying at the time of ordering (don't forget to tip your server at that time), and your dinner will be brought to you. Outdoor dining in the warm weather is a treat. Will definitely return read more

This review is for the restaurant not the beach club. The locale is just beautiful and most of the food was very good (except for the tuna tartare). Now for the service . . . As everyone has mentioned you place your order on paper; they brought our octopus but forgot everything else. It took asking a few people to actually get it to arrive -- well over an hour. To their credit they did comp a couple of things after asking. read more

I have been to the best restaurants locally and internationally. I was appalled at Duryea's pretentious atmosphere. The waiters and waitresses were all just standing around the bar area, talking and joking around. Not to mention that there is not even a full bar. Serving only very expensive wine, beer and other concoctions. The patrons are responsible for filling out there menu choices on a clipboard that they the have to bring up to a kiosk area to pay in advance. The food is the served by the wait staff. Nothing is complimentary, not even bread! Tap water is the only item that there is no charge for. The prices are absolutely outrageous!!! A lobster roll is $44 and it comes on a hot dog roll. The lobster is not mixed with anything! No celery, no mayonnaise nothing just dry lobster meat. The French fries were over $20 and came in a chicken wire basket lined with parchment. McDonald's fries are much better. Overall if you want to be seen spending $200+ for a seafood salad and be among the new elite Orient transplants, then this is the place for you. Terrible experience. Will NEVER return. I'd much rather get an authentic lobster roll from a food truck! Overall the prices are so inflated that they are INSANE. save yourself the hundreds that it will cost you and skip this joint completely!!! read more

This additional location is great! We were able to come by boat, and the marina team is friendly and good with ropes!

We went to Duryea's Orient Point beach club last week.The place is beautiful, however, I am giving 1 star reating because of the girl behind the counter at beach lounge. So I placed the order, and she said the tip is not Included and requested 20% tip!!! With so bad attitude, I mean I usually tip 20% but you don't have to be a b***. Also while I was waiting, she did the whole thing again with another men. This time even worse, because he said " I have to collect the money from my friends then I'll come back and tip you". But she continued, "you should do it now". OMG!! This would be a nice place if they got rid of her. read more

The location was beautiful but the service was terrible. I spent $900 on dinner for 6 and didn't expect to have to go to the counter and order/pay myself before anything came out. I was also dissatisfied with the service. Not one of our meals came out at the same time. please reconsider adding full waiter service. food was fair at best. We ordered steak which was over cooked and COLD. We ordered sides that came out just as we were finishing our main courses and were forced to leave them. Common you can do better than this amateur system. read more
