A wonderful dinner tonight. Front of the house was very organized and friendly. My favorite recurring special is the seared flute with couscous. Very nice. The lobster and shrimp sliders were delicious too. We didn't have an appetizer or desert tonight, but we each had a drink and an entree, and our total bill was just a tad over $100. We'll be back soon. read more

Best food outside of Brooklyn. I look forward to eating here whenever we visit Greenport. The staff are super nice, every thing is super clean, and you won't find a bad dish on the menu. Even my incredibly picky 7 year old adores the food here. read more

First & South is a great dog-friendly spot, we brought our pooch and felt right at home. Started with wine and local oysters, which were excellent. The salmon was very good, and the tuna burger stood out with an Asian twist, sesame oil and a hint of wasabi. I went with a side salad, but honestly you can't go wrong with the menu. Fur desert we had ice scream n sprinkles are free! Service was friendly and attentive. I'll be back to try more. read more

I stopped here for dinner on a Saturday and was able to be seated right away. We ordered a cesear salad, buffalo wings, clam chowder and the salmon. We weren't a fan of the cesear salad as it was full pieces of lettuce. We enjoyed the rest of the meal. The buffalo wings had a generous amount of sauce and weren't dry at all. Beware that the tables are extremely close together so it can feel like you're eating with strangers. I would recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a spot to eat in Greenport. read more

We had a great dining experience at First and South. Even without a reservation on a Saturday evening, we were seated right away. Hostess was great and very personable. The space is cozy and comfortable, which made for a really relaxed meal. We started with the wedge salad and the chicken tortilla soup special of the day--both were excellent. For our entrées, we ordered the shrimp pasta and the steak, and everything was delicious. The bartender also made a great espresso martini, which was a nice bonus. Overall, a wonderful visit! We'd definitely come back. read more

Super cool location! Prices were as expected for the location and time of year actually kind of fair to be honest. Now the food was great. The wings were good and the fries were awesome. Tuna burger was good but that brownie sundae... Unbelievable!! One of the best Sundaes I have had in a long time. I'd come back just for that. Service was good as well. It was very busy inside, but they were on top of it. read more

We enjoyed a really nice dinner at First and South this past week! Erin was our server and she really took care of us throughout the meal. The restaurant is charming and we had such a nice, private table in the corner as I requested on RESY. They even had live music playing outside that we heard through the open window next to us. Cool for a Tuesday night. Love that First and South is so farm-to-table. Everything was fresh and locally sourced, especially the North Fork wine! I had the chicken dish which came with some very delicious mushrooms along with croutons that sucked up all the amazing juices and flavors. The chicken could have been a little more moist, but it was very good. My husband enjoyed his miso salmon on a bed of greens ... everything was so good. I wish we had room for dessert as the options looked so good. We will have to save room for next time ! read more

The service, food and surroundings were just superb! I can't say enough good things about visiting a reasonably priced, laid back place with a such a variety of choices on the menu-every type of foodie in our group of 7 found something to make them smile! Already can't wait for another visit! read more

Everything about this place is so amazing. I can't wait to go back. The upscale but still chill atmosphere is notable. The service was good, too. What we got: Burrata with confit tomato's, (nut free) basil pesto with a side of crostini - 10/10. The burrata was creamy and delicious. The pesto was vibrant. The confit was sweet but savory adding a lovely touch. A Really Good Burger - it really was a really good burger. The patty was hearty and cooked to perfections. I added cheese and bacon. The bacon was THICK and delicious, definitely worth the extra money. First Fries - incredible skin on 3 times blanched fries. You're able to add on sauces for dipping which is such a nice touch. We got the garlic aioli which was really acidic forward, truffle aioli which was divine with the right about of truffle, and the scallion remoulade which quickly became my fave dip after dip. Lemonade - it has the perfect balance of sweet but tartness. I could imagine having it on a hot day as a refreshing beverage. Overall, I highly recommend!! read more

Very rude service. Made an indoor reservation and arrived during the heat wave and were offered an outdoor table. When we explained that we could not dine outdoors with a 6 month old in 100 degree weather they explained even though the online booking said dining room that doesn't mean indoors. They made no effort to help and left us with nowhere to eat on a holiday weekend with two kids. We also arrived with a stroller and before being greeted a woman said "leave your stroller outside." Wouldn't recommend for dining with kids. read more

What a wonderful Christmas vibe in Greenport. This place is great all year 'round but it's magical at Christmas time with a great "small town" atmosphere. Off season most of us here live locally but there's no discrimination against the straggling visitors. Food is outstanding with many, rotating, local options. Solid cocktail menu and a nice, simple wine list. The Chowder just may be the best around. The fries definitely are! read more

Great lunch! Also nice brunch menu. Sat on the porch with our doggo today. Service was friendly, helpful and prompt. I had the saffron mussels and an order of fries with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc; hubby had the ahi tuna burger. The pièce de résistance was the gluten-free brownie sundae - wow, what an amazing and delectable treat! Definitely a relaxing and satiating meal. Highly recommend sitting outdoors. Live music today was an added bonus to enhance the dining experience! We will be back! read more

We really enjoyed our lunch at First and South! The staff was super friendly and loved that we had our dog. We were able to sit out on the covered patio with him and the waitress was really sweet with him. She kept our drinks filled and was very fast with everything. We got our oysters in no time and our main dishes didn't take too long. I tried the chicken sandwich that came with a Thai sauce. It had an amazing flavor and I would definitely order it again if we came back. We really liked First and South with its screened-in patio and cute inside. It is a really good option for lunch in Greenport especially if you can't have gluten like my family. read more

My partner and I were visiting Greenport area and stopped by First and South for a quick lunch! It was super busy on a weekend so it took a while for us to get seated, but afterwards food came quick and servers were attentive. Started off with their clam chowder which was well seasoned and tasty! While I liked the salty bacon flavors, I felt like it overpowdered the clams a little, or perhaps the ratio can be adjusted? Enjoyed how creamy the soup was as well as the amount of additional vegetables. For mains, the lobster and shrimp sliders were better than expected. The seafood pieces were fresh and the mayo wasn't too much. The ratio of meat to veggies were good. Fries were pretty standard. The fried chicken sandwich was pretty decent! Liked how they used two thin tender pieces of fried chicken breast instead of one. Only wish they put their wet ingredients on top so the burger could stay more intact. Overall, a decent meal but nothing crazy to write home. Would be interested in seeing what other seasonal items they offer next time! read more

My wife and I came here for lunch and had an outstanding experience. I ordered the New England clam chowder, and it was easily one of the best I've had--loaded with clams and perfectly balanced without being overly creamy. My wife had the shrimp and lobster sliders, which were fresh, flavorful, and paired perfectly with her Bloody Mary. But the real standout? The hand-cut fries--crispy, golden, and absolutely delicious! Despite the place being busy, the service was attentive and friendly, making the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town. Highly recommend! read more

Great dinner tonight. The restaurant was warm and inviting and our server was encouraging and polite. My wife and I both ordered the local fish special. It came hot but not over cooked. So good. I don't love Greenport, and wanted to try some fresh fish tonight so we took a flier on First and South. Home run. read more

Never a bad meal here. Great service and walkable from the heart of Greenport. We always eat here when visiting Greenport.

The food here is great! A little on the pricy side but can't complain because at least the quality is good. The corn was unbelievable, drenched in sauce and Cotija. The roasted corn was Great but portion was really small. We also got the Mac n cheese, it was perfectly made and loaded with various cheeses and topped with crispy bread crumbs. The brownie dessert was not the best. The flavor of the brownie was unique because it had tahini but it came in a mason jar and it was layered with ice cream and cram on top so it was basically impossible to get a bite of the brownie without making a mess of the desert. By the end few bites it was a melted mess. It should've been served in a bowl in my opinion and have a few more brownie pieces. Service was nice, we had a very friendly waitress and the hostess was able to accommodate our request for sitting outside despite it being very crowded by having us wait near the bar or dining room until a table opened up. Good ambiance - it's a beautiful restaurant read more

Absolutely excellent and can't wait to come back. I had the fluke special with local veggies and I have no regrets. My only complaint is that I wish I had more! We ordered fries and carrots as appetizers for the table. We were all a big fan of the malt vinegar and black garlic dips. Don't skip the Mac and Cheese- get that for the table too, yum. The ambiance feels like a family home, but in a good way. It is inviting and cozy, and meets the vibe of Greenport. read more

This was a good place with great service and a good vibe. It was packed on Friday night when we were there. I especially liked that the menu is labeled very well for those looking for something gluten-free. In fact, we chose this restaurant because of the gluten-free options on the menu Would definitely come back read more

BEST FOOD. Worst live entertainment that was too loud too bad and literally gave 2 of us migraines. This place would be amazing if they did not allow amplified music and any music with bad singers. Please go but call to make sure the the live music is not amplified. read more

I was visiting a friend and we Stopped bin for the happy hour and $2 oysters on a Friday afternoon which happened to be Cinco de Mayo. They had a nice complement of Mexican beers chilling on ice so we indulged. Kyle was our friendly bar tender who served us. All was really great. The oysters were delicious and the beers cold. I even received a $5 coupon for my next visit! read more

Came here for lunch today. Family friendly, they have a stroller parking but didn't have any changing table in the restrooms. My husband and I split the happy hour wings, fried & the sourdough BLTA. The avocado blt was very messy and hard to eat, wish It wasn't the thick center cut bacon. The fries were great along side the garlic lemon aioli. My son had chicken fingers and fries which were just OK. read more

Atmosphere great. Service and food just ok. Frustrated because just had burgers with my daughter and one glass of wine. Got email stating I left 25% gratuity...I remember feeling like it was generous to leave 20% because I wanted another glass of wine but impossible to get server's attention, so gave up and paid. It was very dark but was sure I checked 20% and yet when I called they insisted they could send me signed copy...the point being, they could have changed it to 20% rather than losing a customer or many! I won't go back and would not recommend...it's just ok food at high prices. read more

Had a birthday brunch for 10 ppl. Great service, good food, fabulous French fries and comfortable atmosphere. Definitely will return.

Came for lunch last week, food is good and tasty. Service was good as well. Will be back again as it was a nice place for a quiet lunch

I have visited here before and it was exceptional. But twice for the dinner experience it has been unfortunately not great. The pomodoro with shrimp is a very easy, simple dish that you can season with almost anything, but it was weirdly bland. Unfortunately I sent it back because why stuff carbs with no flavor? The waitress was covering many tables, so we didn't see her much. Our water ran out and we never got a refill. But after I sent my meal back a manager brought out some chowder so I wasn't "sitting with nothing in front of me". Nice touch. They didn't offer dessert or after dinner drinks, so I was happy to head out. It's still a 4 star, because I've had some great stops in the past, and it's very early season. It's a beautiful restaurant with typically friendly staff. If you're in the area, it's a good bet. Worth a try. read more

First and South was suggested by the chef of PORT who was preparing for the restaurant's opening on May 9th. It was lunch time on a Friday and First and South was busy with patrons. My wife and I opted to sit at the bar. The bartender was businesslike and cordial lacking any enthusiasm for making small talk with customers. We ordered the fried chicken sandwich with French fries (a $2 up charge for substitution that we were not told about) and the Kale Salad with grilled chicken (a $12 up charge stated on the menu). The sandwich was fresh and tasty and the French fries were excellent - tastes like homemade. The salad was very good but lacked dressing as it was quite dry. The dining room was bright and quaint New England style painted in dark blue and white molding making it comfortable and pleasing. It seemed filled with both tourists and locals giving it an interesting vibe. read more

Ended up grabbing brunch and can't believe we haven't been here before today. Service and food were great definitely would recommend if you are around the Greenport area. read more

It's hard not to love this place. Independently owned and operated with so much love and care. Great team, always locally sourced food that's well prepared. Vegetarian and gluten free options (which are actually awesome). Casual vibe but the attention to wine, beer, food are all top notch! I have been back over and over for years and I think it's such a special place. Highly recommend - unless you're a jerk then go somewhere else lol. read more

Never Have I Ever! Has anyone ever heard of that game? Well, I just had a "never have I ever" experience. My husband and I made reservations at this restaurant that we had both researched here in Greenport Long Island. It is called First and South. So you can guess what the address is. After a long day of walking around, exploring, and being very hungry, we arrived at the restaurant earlier than our requested time, to find out that they were seating people outside without reservations, and when we asked to be seated outside, they told us that they were reserving a table of two outside for a couple who is coming with a dog. Not only was the couple not there, but the fact that the dog took precedence over a reservation of two human beings. Being flabbergasted by this outcome, my husband was rendered speechless! That's a first! Normally, I would've taken control and spoken with a manager, but I was also rendered speechless! There were two tables for two outside that were available, and unoccupied, and we were denied a table because a couple was coming with a dog. Unspeakable. I am an animal lover, I get it, but COME ON!! If you're really hungry and you make a reservation there, I wouldn't go because you may not be able to be seated where you want to be. I am still speechless at the incompetence of the hostess. I cannot speak for the food because I didn't have an opportunity to try it. However, based on the way they run their business, I wouldn't recommend or frequent this restaurant. But, if you'd like to try it, go ahead, but don't expect to get a table if there's a dog on the reservation. The Hostess showed no sense of professionalism or was even interested in trying to be polite. As the first person to greet patrons she should show some desire to provide good customer service. read more

Food coma. Absolutely delicious!!! Came here due to their huge amount of gluten free options. Thank you to Kate for helping us choose our dishes. For those of you gluten free it's a gluten free fryer which is very exciting. We started with the buttermilk wings. They were excellent. I got the lobster and shrimp roll with fries. The flavoring was so fresh and on point. The dipping sauces for the fries incredible. Cute atmosphere. Can't wait to go back. Already know what I'll be trying next! read more
