One of my BEST meals ever!!!! John Frazier, Michelin chef, Hyrum our server and the crew at North Fork Table are exceptional! The Long trumpet mushrooms and Red lentils entree was delicious. Although the portion sizes were modest, the presentation and flavors were outstanding! Surprising depth of flavors. The 2 Mile salad , all the seasonal ingredients are within 2 miles of the restaurant (fresh fresh fresh baby greens, crisp asparagus and Catapano cheese) tasted like it was picked that morning! The Berry and Beet dessert melted in my mouth with a surprise in the center;) Simply elegant, like a fine French restaurant. We left completely awed and satiated. Thrilled to have such a high end restaurant in my back yard. read more

I was genuinely blown away by the whole experience here. It was their first weekend open for Valentine's Day, and from the outside it looks like a cozy little cottage. Step inside, though, and boom--you're transported into an elegant, beautifully designed dining room that feels straight out of a Michelin dream. We waited a bit for our table, but they handed us complimentary champagne, so... patience restored. The $125 prix-fixe menu was worth every bite. Picking a favorite course feels like choosing between yourbfavorite child . The milk bread, oysters, and baked clams were standouts. That celery vinaigrette on the oysters was next level. The agnolotti pasta was unforgettable. I had the baked chicken entrée and discovered a new obsession with turnip cakes. Who knew? Dessert sealed the deal: molten chocolate cake and passion fruit panna cotta. An absolutely perfect mic drop to end the meal. If I had to nitpick, the drink prices lean toward Manhattan territory. But overall, I'm a huge fan and rooting hard for this spot. If you're anywhere near Greenport or Southold, do yourself a favor and book it. read more

We love coming here on special occasions. The menu has changed , the bread had changed ( tbh prefer the sourdough) no petite four. Miss the good old days when restaurants used to give you free stuff. But the ambience is still nice, food is great n service courteous. That's why we keep coming back. The duck used to be $42 reasonable but today was $60! Sea food platter is always my favorite. But I tell ya things are getting really expensive in general in LI. Glass of brut $25 from sparkle point. read more

I have had wonderful meals here but this time everything was a bit off. Maybe it was the electric that kept going off that spooked the chef, but while all was good, nothing was outstanding, which I expected (except for the chocolate desert). It's beautiful and while the waiter knew nothing about drinks, he was very nice. read more

Beautifully understated, meticulously restored and updated inn and restaurant with contemporary touches, we had a magnificent Mother's Day dinner (our first time here) and we were very impressed. We started off with great cocktails -- I had their version of a Manhattan which was amazing. Usually "prix fixe" menus present low hanging options -- our choices were not only interesting but every dish was beautiful and delectable. The desserts (especially their Strawberry Pavlova) bowled us over. The service was impeccable, attentive, friendly and every person who stopped by our table made us feel special and very welcome. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back. read more

If you're looking for a place where your wallet loses weight faster than you do, this is it! The ambiance is swanky, the service was great, and the food tasted good--but the menu? Peak pretension. Cocktails are $25, and yet my Old Fashioned was made with Maker's Mark--bold choice for top-shelf prices. The lamb belly came with a "hen" egg (what other kind of egg would it be--rooster? Just call it an egg), and the $18 apple tart? Two bites. Blink and you'll miss it. Speaking of unforgettable experiences, you're greeted by a mysterious sulfuric fart cloud at the entrance. Welcome to fine dining, I guess? On the bright side, the butternut squash side dish was the star of the show (and ironically the most reasonably priced item). But $22 for mac and cheese? I didn't realize I needed to take out a loan for comfort food. All in all, it's a nice spot if you want to feel fancy--but be prepared to pay a premium for tiny portions and menu descriptions that require a thesaurus. read more

North Fork Table & Inn - Went with a $12 local beer instead - New American Near Me - Southold, New York

Beautiful decor, amazing service, delicious food. Highly recommend. We didn't have apps or drinks but the entrees and dessert were great.

My husband and I recently had dinner here for the first time w friends, knowing his sister's family much preferred it under previous management -- but wanted to give it a try based on reputation, for a special occasion night out (we don't ordinarily spend nearly $300 on dinner for sure!). Our experience was a bit mixed. The good: -Atmosphere is lovely, calm and warm decor, relaxing ambience, comfy chairs at the table -Service was beyond reproach -- all staff very friendly and attentive and we were especially appreciative of the manager who brought us two new complementary dishes when we mentioned we hadn't really liked one of our first courses. The whole staff was also super patient and kind to our friends, who had a somewhat cranky baby on hand. The less great: -Overall, we found the food....fine? But definitely not nearly as astounding as expected and certainly not with regard to the price. My husband's filet mignon was cooked to order but beyond that not particularly memorable; meanwhile I got the yellowfin tuna, told it would be "black and blue," and found it was quite over cooked and tough on the outside and barely still raw on the inside. -The manner in which some dishes are served struck us as odd. Totally understand that this is a fine dining spot and that presentation is part and parcel of the meal. But it is strange that while some dishes come with what feel like full sides -- the filet with a hefty portion of thick asparagus -- others come with a laughably tiny one (my tuna came with literally a tablespoon of potato purée and an "escabeche" which wasn't more than a few raw strands of fennel and carrot with no taste). When my husband (who's not a big veggie guy) asked if his asparagus could be substituted for potato purée or such, the chef had to be consulted and...declined -- which, again, I would understand if the overall composition of the dish was affected, but it was literally filet mignon was 6 pieces of asparagus on the side -- nothing crazy! Overall, we are glad we tried dinner here, and want to emphasize that service was great -- but for what may have been our most expensive dinner out ever, we were definitely underwhelmed. read more

Revisited October 2022 under new management. Not as wonderful as we remember when both Gerry Hayden and Claudia Fleming were at the helm. Felt stiff and pretentious. Our server was lovely and charming, but Matt the Sommelier appeared uncomfortable although knowledgeable of an overpriced wine list. The food was not as remarkable either, sad to say. Hopefully things will improve over time. I noticed we who have been loyal over the years have many who feel the same. Thank you for reading. read more

After hearing the occasional rave review of this place from our North Fork neighbors and friends, I recently took my partner here for his birthday. The space is undeniably beautiful and was particularly cozy on a cold and quiet night like the one on which we visited. My favorite element of the decor was the use of sheep's wool- both on the seat backs, and -more interestingly- for the felted lampshades, which give off a lovely glow. The service was fine- not memorably good or memorably bad, although I will say that the server was unobtrusive and we never felt rushed (though there were plenty of open tables that night and they would have had no reason to rush us). While we waited for our meal I had a very autumnal seasonal cocktail that was good, but not particularly original or sophisticated. (However, it was relatively accurately described on the cocktail menu, so maybe it's my fault for being the kind of basic b who would order such a thing...?) The sourdough bread was good, but very, very crusty. The crustiness would have been offset nicely by some melty butter, but alas, the bread was not particularly warm and the butter was ice cold. We did the three-course dinner. For the first course I had the broken beans, which was tasty and balanced, while at the same time somewhat reminiscent of the organic microwaveable bean burritos I frequently buy at Costco. I could not decide whether this was a good or bad thing. My partner had the beef tartare which I also tasted. The beef was good, and the "jammy" egg was great, but beyond that the dish was overcomplicated somehow, thanks in particular to a condiment of some kind that reminded me of supermarket guacamole. For the second course I had the duck. When duck is an option on a menu I have a hard time NOT choosing it, because (1) I never cook duck at home, and (2) it's from Long Island and I guess I like that. The duck here was as good as I've had anywhere. There was a piece of breast and a little lollipop style drumstick piece, prepared in different ways but both cooked perfectly; the breast was appropriately pink, and the drumstick had some kind of glaze and, being smaller, was cooked a bit more, so that it had a smokiness and pleasant chewiness to it. The polenta and poached fruit were the perfect accompaniments. (My partner had the filet and thought it was just OK, so I didn't bother tasting it.) For desert we shared the sage-infused cheesecake and some assorted ice cream and sorbet. The cheesecake is a deconstructed one- not that I mind- and was rich and creamy although it did not taste noticeably sage-y to me. There were a few pieces of crispy sage on the plate, but I would have loved more. Regarding the ice cream/sorbet, the flavor we liked best was an apple cider sorbet. I generally find sorbet to be disappointing compared to ice cream, but this one was quite good. To wrap up, it half-stars were a thing I would probably say 3.5, but since they're not, I guess I'll round up to 4, mainly because of the aesthetic. The food is fine, but I don't think it's the best in the area- not by a long shot- and to be honest, we probably won't eat here again. (On that note, I should remind my partner not to make a reciprocal reservation here for MY next birthday.) However, I will admit that it's got an upscale feel that is unmatched anywhere else on the North Fork. If classy/moody/special-occasion vibes are what you're after, you will not be disappointed. read more

It's been many years since our visits here, including several anniversaries with fabulous memories. Ambiance is now elegant as opposed to homey elegance. Nice. My wife, when reserving, indicated it was our anniversary and asked for a table by the fireplace. We were told six or seven times, 'Happy Anniversary,' no mention of fireplace, (in the past with no mention of anniversary, they overheard us, and comped us champagne and a desert). I did not and do not expect that, but perhaps a small bon mot or just one 'Happy' would have been fine). I had the tuna carpaccio, which turned out to me a very vinegary serviche fish taste totally obscured. My wife had the duck fat tot with caviar, good, but very small. She ordered chicken, but when told the special, changed to it. It turned out to be an another small appetizer a cerviche of several fishes (turned out to be one). Offered a replacement for mine, I ordered the same and it was excellent (but small). My wife ordered a scallop (0ne) appetizer deciding 3 appetizers was enough. I ordered Swordfish (on the rare side) and a side of Brussels sprouts. A surprisingly a large main course came with mashed potatoes and baby broccoli (wonderful) and side dish of carrots (very good) instead of Brussels sprouts which the waitress explained that we had been given an old menu! The Swordfish was properly but slightly overcooked for my taste and somewhat salty. If you are sensitive to salt, mention that as other things were slightly over salted. Service was okay, my complaint about the tuna was replaced. but having ordered a bottle of wine, when our glasses went dry, had to wait twice to signal for a refill. The North Fork Table white wine blend is nice and definitely a bargain at $55, the cheapest, significantly better than two other local wine at higher prices. The most surprising thing was that our infancy Cappuccino was probably the best we ever had. The kicker is that the swordfish was so large, I took a large piece home with the unordered carrots. They gave me the wrong bag, so I now have a chicken thigh and more. Someone else has a large piece of Swordfish. This is the longest review I've ever written, but I want an annniverary place not that I live close by! read more

North Fork Table & Inn - Coffee, tea, and some type of dessert thingy. - New American Near Me - Southold, New York

Incredible ambience, food and service. Honestly one of the best meals I've ever had. The broken beans (my fav!), the seafood grill, swordfish (so flavorful), fillet, cavatelli, ... just all scrumptious and cooked to perfection. Thank you!! read more

Love the lobster rolls from the truck so we had to try the restaurant a but were sadly very underwhelmed. The menu starts off sounding delicious, but honestly I've had much better food from chain restaurants. My fish was the worst part of the meal; being that it was completely raw in the center. I would think that a seasoned chef would be able to cook fish. I mean, no offense but serving undercooked raw entrees is something I would expect at a low quality establishment, not one like this that comes so highly rated. Glad we tried. The appetizers were mediocre at best. 2 stars for the service. The girl felt bad that their chef doesn't know how to cook so she took the fish off the bill. Only good thing from this meal was that their tasting menu is the most inexpensive I've ever seen. read more

Simply one of the best and most enjoyable meals we have had on the island in many many years. From the staff to the service to the food and it's presentation, this a one of those meals you will remember for many years to come. When we went, there were options for a three or four course meal and since we were a party of four, we wanted to try as many of the offerings as possible. All of the options were excellent but if the there was a clear winner, the steak tar-tar was unbelievable and large portioned. Tuna tar tar and duck confit were also fantastic runners-up. From the steak and the duck to the fish offerings, all of our meals were simply delicious. From start to finish, what a truly memorable and delectable meal. read more

History of Present Indulgence: Wife and I took an impromptu trip away from the city to North Fork to explore the vineyards and this restaurant was recommended on almost every blog and "best" list for the North Fork area. Read about John Fraser, its three Michelin-starred chef and restaurateur who trained under the tutelage of Thomas Keller and had to come try it. Physical Exam: Taste - Few meals have brought me to literal tears. A chicken dish I had in Vienna circa 2019, 2 AM drunk Taco Bell, and the duck breast we had here. I've never had a piece of poultry so tender and juicy, yet have a skin that's perfect crusted and crisp. The quenelle of rhubarb jam wasn't completely necessary, but the color really topped off the presentation. The beef tartare covering with avocado cream was a savory, yet light way to start the meal. And the duck tot covered in caviar was a great bite, but be warned, it's $25 and the size of a thumb. Not made for sharing. Service - Expectedly good service for the quality of establishment. Patient, willing to give recommendations, smiled. Bonus points to the server who endured a family asking if their $90 steak actually tastes like it costs, because, and I quote "we've traveled the world and have had great, expensive steaks." Even more bonus points to the other server who listened to this woman explain her predicament about choosing between multi-million dollar homes. Atmosphere - Outdoor area and indoor area are both great. Indoor area is clean, romantic, dimly lit but bright enough to read the menu (at least for most people). It has the feel of someone's nice home reconstructed to be all dining space. Outdoor area is covered and gets good natural light. Assessment & Plan: 5/5 overpriced tart tots smothered in unfertilized salmon babies! North Fork Table & Inn was absolutely worth the price and the stop. It's a perfect end to a day of wine tastings, walking along the beach, and exploring the area. The food was some of the most delicious I've had in the world, and everything was so pristinely presented. They're menu changes, but if there's duck breast, you've got to get it. FULL SEND. read more

Came here for a special occasion last weekend and was very disappointed. The service was awful -- long waits for everything, nobody coming to the table to take our order, no plates on the table for appetizers (when they finally arrived), long waits for food to arrive. We actually had to flag down a server to take our order because nobody was tending to our table. I sent a message through the restaurant's "contact us" page afterwards, but never got so much as an acknowledgment of my letter. An expensive disappointment. read more

Booked an open table reservation for Veterans Day for 5:15pm. There were no standard tables available so we opted for bar seatings. Upon arrival we asked the maître d' if they could accommodate us in the main dining room and they did. Service was a bit slower than usual and our waitress was very apologetic about that. We started with the "Broken Bean" - simmered cannellini beans with herbs and topped with a crispy layer of Parmesan and then topped with shaved fluffy truffle. It's the kind of dish I can have with a glass of wine and be contented, but tonight was not the night for an early contentment. We also had the " Two Mile Salad" - to simply put, it was lettuce and mini plum tomatoes with shaved Parmesan. For dinner we had "The Southold Seafood Grill" - a medley of four different seafood in a light broth. And, our second entrée was the "Peppered Filet Mignon" - The Filet Mignon melted in my mouth, quite divine. And just when we thought the dishes above were great, we then moved on to greater things - desserts! I give myself permission every once in a while to have a good cocktail with dessert and this was the rightful place for such pleasure. The night ended with an "Apple Crostata" and my cocktails of choice was "Pear Pressure." I've read that North Fork Table has gone to some length to recruit a cocktail manager and it is reflective in the creativity, aesthetic and flavor of their cocktails. Relevant info: Seasons change and so does their cocktail menu. read more

This was, overall, our best meal during our Hamptons visit during covid. The only thing that wasn't flawless was a bit of a wait when we first arrived (we had a reservation of course). The outside dining area was the best of any we experienced. I might even go so far as to say that even in normal times we would still opt to eat outside; saying a lot because that's generally not my thing. Service was impeccable- Michelin-star worthy. A napkin falls- they're there to pick it up before you can even think of what to do. Otherwise, during the meal they disappear into the background. I don't think that happens by accident- it takes skill and training and so I appreciate that sort of thing. But of course the highlight was the food. Creative, beautiful on the plate, practically bursting with flavor, and well prepared across the board. I doubt if the menu will be the same by the time you read this so I'll spare you the details. But suffice to say, the sea food and produce were the stars, but the meats were equally impressive if not almost as special. Next time we're in the Hamptons this will be high on our list for a re-visit. Not to be missed... read more

We stopped going to a North Fork Table & Inn for fine dining because there is no consistency in the dining experience. Sometimes good, sometimes pretty bad. Never excellent. However, we could still hit Burger Night in the bar. Sadly, this too is no longer a safe bet. 4 burgers ordered medium rare -with a note to lean to rare -all came back well-done. Fired again, even worse than the first time. I'm pretty forgiving with meat temps. But medium rare to rare coming out well done 2x is a big miss. My quests questioned the quality of the beef which was extremely greasy and lacking in flavor that wasn't from the condiments. Sad to knock this place off the list. It's just too pricy to be a miss more often than a hit. read more

So I've been here twice (summer 2019 and summer 2020). Pre-renovation, I would've given 5 stars. Post-renovations I'm bumping down to a 3. My photos are from both last year and this year, as a comparison. Last summer my husband and I dined here while visiting the area. We did the incredible 6-course tasting menu, and had Stanton as our waiter, who eloquently described each dish and made us feel so welcome. The restaurant had an old charm to it and we couldn't wait to return this summer. It was one of the best meals we have ever had. I still remember the salmon amuse bouche, the leek soup with lobster, and sweet potato soufflé with ginger... UNBELIEVABLE. 5 stars. Tonight, we attended again. We booked a reservation 2 weeks ago on OpenTable and were shocked to see that they had no tables except for random 9:30pm slots, so when an 8:45 popped up as a cancelation, we decided to take it. I booked the table and marked off that we'd be celebrating our anniversary. We knew the tasting menu was no longer an option, but we were excited to go again. When we arrived, we were seated on the patio, which we requested due to COVID. The restaurant is completely renovated - I heard they spent $2M. While beautiful, I feel like it lost some of its charm, and had more of a modern farmhouse chic NYC vibe (a la Blue Hill, or a Jean-Georges restaurant). We were seated in the corner of the patio and our server was Brad. He never told us his name, so I only know his name because it was on our check. He seemed to not want to be bothered with us. We ordered drinks: an old fashioned for my husband, and I ordered the High Summer Sour. I was excited about the chamomile in the drink. Our appetizer arrived first - the fluke. It was delicious. Still no drinks. Then we received the complimentary bread and butter, and olives (I feel like this and our cocktails should've been out before the fluke). Our drinks arrived and the man who brought them told me that tonight was the first night that they are offering the drink I ordered. Tonight they are doing it with sunflower, not chamomile, and he'd love to know what I think of it! (this might have been helpful to know before I ordered it in case I wanted to change my mind). Regardless, the drinks were good. (PS he never came back to find out what I thought of it). It seemed everyone else around us had apertifs at their table - little glasses of a beautiful red liqueur with a green leaf (mint?) garnish. We never got them :( the couple next to us received an extra two, which were probably for us, but despite the couple declaring they already received theirs, the waiter said to keep them and drink them anyway. Time went by... We finished our drinks.... Empty glasses... We'd like another round... No waiter... Our entrees arrive: my husband ordered the duck and it was prepared perfectly. Since it was so late I decided to have an appetizer as my meal - the rigatoni cascio e pepe which was tasty. We had to ask someone to get our waiter so we could order more drinks. Btw - all the runners seemed to be confused as to which tables were which. They'd often bring food to the wrong table or walk around with plates looking very confused. Remember those apertifs that went to the wrong table and was never remedied or even noticed...? I would've asked the beverage director about them but she seemed to go to every table but ours... Brad, our waiter, brought us a dessert menu. We decided to go for the cheesecake sundae. I assumed it was cheesecake with ice cream on top (even though that sounds weird) but it was actually cheesecake-flavored ice cream. I enjoyed it, but the menu descriptions are vague, just basically listing ingredients. Either be more descriptive or have your waiters explain what they are. There were also seasonal ice creams but he didn't tell us what they were. I had the Cardamaro Amaro (so good!) and my husband had a tawny port. We loved the little petit-fours at the end (a bite of chocolate, and a grapefruit gelee with fennel). Overall, we felt like nobody gave a damn that we were there. We were hardly checked on (other than the sweet young man who kept refilling our water! Thank you!) Our anniversary was never acknowledged, we did not receive the same treatment as others regarding apertifs, we were not told of menu changes, we had to flag people down to order things... It was just really disappointing compared to last year. From a restaurant of such high caliber, I'd expect better. The food was good, but nowhere near last year's meal, and I'm not sure I'll return. I do not like feeling like an inconvenience. read more

Boy did I want this to be a 5 star meal. The restaurant s beautiful. And the setting is also beautiful. We had a choice of a three or four course meal. Three was $90. Not cheap. I had the two mile salad. All local ingredients. It was good. I tried the broiled clams. Outstanding. I had the duck for a main dish. Seasoned to perfection. Have no idea what the sides were. I tried the local fish grill. Mostly good. However some of the fish was not edible. Chocolate cake for dessert which was underwhelming. We had two issues. One the water. Still water is $8? Huh? All I wanted was tap water which was not easy to get. And the waiter was nice and knowledgeable. However after one drink I said no more. I was asked repeatedly if wanted another. Kind of cheapened an otherwise pretty nice meal. read more

I went here for a birthday dinner two weeks ago with two other couples. Our reservations were on the earlier side (5:30) and we sat inside. I did not know how nice the outdoor dinning area was - if I was to do it again, which would be amazing, I would choose to eat there. It's a bit of a drive for us all to get there, so I was really hoping dinner would be great. Happily, everyone loved their meal, starting with salads and oysters all the way to desserts. The service was nice too. I'd say the only criticism would be that it took a bit longer than I would like for food to arrive. On the positive side, we did not feel at all rushed. The waitstaff also forgot the candle in the birthday cake, but it was ok bc the chocolate cake was DELICIOUS. Not too sweet - just right. Everyone agreed that this was hands down the best restaurant we've been to in LI. Go - it's worth it! read more

Special and unique combinations of flavors. The tempura squash comes with a paprika dusting which really elevates the dish. The tempura was also perfectly crisp. The fish was all very fresh and the catch of the day dish comes in a really tasty and zesty broth which complements the fish very well. The restaurant seems to combine local fresh ingredients very well. Although the tuna in the tartare was very fresh and good, there was slightly too much soy sauce in the broth which made it just a bit too sweet. The duck tot is a nice idea but the caviar wasn't the beat quality. The bread should have been warmed more, the center was always cold. And the service was incredibly slow - 2 hour meal. Coziest and most elegant restaurant in the area read more

Still one of our favorite dinning experiences on the NOFO. Chef John Fraser has created a special place and the food matches the decor and ambiance. The Little Ram Oysters have become a favorite over the past couple of years and Chef never misses with those Broiled Little Neck Clams. Fresh paper thin radishes, decked amazing Tuna Tartare. The Potted Liver Mousse was outstanding and local Deep Roots Patty Pan (squash) skewers were tender and fresh. Bone-In Pork Chop was as tender as can be...perfect temperature too. I almost forgot...Wine Excellence Award = great wine service and those Cocktails were amazing. read more

To sum up our dining experience: understated elegance, spectacular food, and warm and welcoming service on the North Fork of Long Island. We visited our friends in Southold this past Labor Day weekend and reservations were hard to come by. We had planned to go to Noah's in Greenport but when I saw the photos of the food and the yelp reviews for this place, I knew we had to come here. They were able to squeeze us in for a 7pm Resy. We had a lovely table in the back left dining room of the inn. The female servers were incredibly gracious, very knowledgeable and super patient as we perused our beverage and food options. They offer three ways to dine: a la carte, a $75 prix fixe which permits you to choose an appetizer, entree and dessert all off the main menu or a set chef tasting menu which is five course and must be done by all diners at the table. We opted for a la carte. I started with a cocktail called the Scary Mary. It's super spicy, herbaceous-not sweet. The salt rimmed glass was filled with tequila, lime and Cointreau. It was garnished with a torched slice of lime. Delicious. They had a nice wine by the glass list and the beer selection was also quite varied. After inquiring of the server, I opted for the grass fed steak tartare served with the thinnest most delicate homemade potato crisps. This was followed by the scallop entree. Others enjoyed the salmon blini, market salad, heirloom tomatoes and burrata. They also had the homemade linguine with chanterelles, the pork chop and the grass fed strip steak with mushrooms, chard and polenta gratin. It's kind of rare to find grass fed beef even at the finest of restaurants so this was really a great. Everything with simply cooked to perfection, and beautifully plated. The flavors just worked... and the fresh ingredients just shined. Too full for dessert, we passed. But I am told they have a very talented pastry chef. I can't imagine that there is a better and more complete dining experience on the north fork. We will definitely be back. read more

A case study in how to make a legendary restaurant into a Disney version of fancy dining. NFT&I is pretentious and unwelcoming. Everything the original wasn't. Also, way too much salt. Farm to ocean? read more

It was incredible. The service was balanced, never felt rushed between courses or that we were waiting too long. Waiters timed coming over to us well. Food was amazing, probably the best scallops I've ever had. Only thing I would say if I wanted to really be picky is that maybe the Filet dish was a bit overwhelming. So much flavor in that dish, but could be balanced out better. Otherwise it was awesome, everything in the dish was cooked to perfection. Would highly recommend and would certainly go again read more

We had an incredible dinner for two here. The room and decor is stunning. The ceiling is acoustically treated, so the room was nice and quiet and I could actually hear my fiancee talk to me, unlike the shouting matches at so many other restaurants. The food was very good. We ordered a couple of starters, 2 entrees, and 2 drinks. The service was perfect and everyone was very friendly. For two, we spent $235. Not cheap, but it's a very fancy dinner spot that is not just a generic fancy white-tablecloth place. There is a separate bar room that we did not explore. read more

My wife and I both stayed at and ate at the North Fork Table & Inn for our anniversary. Each experience was fantastic, but need to be reviewed separately. Starting with dinner, a reservation is definitely required for a Friday or Saturday night. The Inn has a varied wine list and small list of featured craft cocktails. The Stone Fruit Old Fashioned is delicious albeit a little sweet. It's definitely a one and done drink. The I Came, I Saw, I Concord is a vodka base with fruity touches which was tasty. The French Apple Seventy-Five, however, is a champagne base with tea and fruit and was the table favorite by far. When it comes time for the meal, the staff is highly adept at recommending a complimentary wine. Tyler was full of great recommendations a throughout the meal. We shared two appetizers, the broiled clams and the Shinnecock scallops. The scallops were tender and paired very well with the blackberry compote. The broiled clams were out of this world. One perfect bite. I would eat a thousand of these and happily order more. I cannot recommend these little treasures highly enough. The filet was definitely petite, but it was perfectly cooked with an outstanding flavor. The filet leaves plenty of room for more clams . The lamb chops were tender and extremely flavorful and paired very well with the farro that accompanies it. Overall, the meal was exquisite. The prices are definitely not for the faint of heart, but you get what you pay for so it was worth it overall. We hear they offer chef's tastings so we will definitely be back to try that. As far as the actual Inn and its accommodations, the stay was enhanced a million times over by Rosemary, the wonderful innkeeper. She greeted us immediately upon arrival and walked us through the many food and drink options we were welcome to during our stay. Additionally, she was full of knowledge of the menu offered at the Table and provided us with several recommendations for dinner the next night. She also has tons of information on local attractions. The room was a combination of modern and colonial. They are not huge but certainly spacious enough to live comfortably for a day or two. When we went into the room we were also greeted with a surprise bottle of wine compliments of the house. The rooms are right above the restaurant and we were in the furthest room from the crowd, but the restaurant could barely be heard. The bed is extremely comfortable and you have plenty of temperature control options. The best part is walking down to grab dinner and heading right back up when you're done. Not having to drive is a nice bonus. As with the restaurant, you can expect to spend a little more than you would at a chain hotel, but the overall experience makes it worth it on a special occasion. We can't wait for our next stay! read more

Great find. Upscale atmosphere, impeccable service and outstanding food. Originally had reservations for outdoor dining but the threat of rain nixed that. We decided to try dining indoors for the first time since COVID and felt totally comfortable. The tables were appropriately distanced and capacity limited. Food-wise everything that we tried was delicious but the stand outs were the broiled little neck clam appetizer and the 2 desserts (Berries & Cream and the Broken Chocolate Cake). I ordered the Hen of the Woods Mushroom entrée which came loaded with freshly shaved truffles. It was delicious but not really a large enough portion of mushrooms to really fill you up as an entrée. Would definitely come back the next time I'm on this part of the island! read more

During our trip to the North Folk of Long Island, we decided to give this highly recommended fine dining restaurant a try and it certainly impressed. We opted for the a la cart menu, which was bar seating only, however, don't be discouraged. The service and atmosphere was spectacular, even at the bar. We enjoyed the Tuna Tartar, Spicy Rigatoni, Hay Smoked Chicken and Broken Chocolate Cake. Plus the drinks were out of this world. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant when visiting North Fork in the future and highly recommend you check this place out. read more

Fun to go and try! Definitely expensive but it's a special night out. The service was excellent and one of the duck cooked three ways stood out. 100% an experience go and splurge! read more

North Fork Table & Inn - Duck 3 ways - New American Near Me - Southold, New York

I was very sad to discover that the restaurant was under new ownership and was worried I would find it too changed. (It reopened in late summer 2020.) While it is certainly different - the space has had walls torn down, layout slightly changed, and decor completely revamped into something that looks rustic but feels a bit like a 'scene' - the commitment to local offerings, exquisite food, and impeccable service remains the same. The tasting menu is gone which means you can eat more affordably if you choose. I found the options somewhat pared down, but you don't need a long list when everything is delicious. We snacked on the corn tempura before sharing the cacio e pepe. The pasta was my least favorite dish (to be fair it is a high bar!). It seemed to have orange zest which was interesting but I would not order it again. The 20oz tomahawk with riviera vegetables was a delight. Absolutely buttery tender, seasoned perfectly, and extremely delicious. But the standout of the night, and I cannot believe I am saying this, was the Super Green Spinach! I wanted to lick the bowl clean! It was quite smoky, I was told due to the smoked cheddar. A dose of bechamel makes it creamy, and a topping of malt vinegar potato chips brings crunch and salt. Plum crostada was the perfect summer sweet ending! The cocktails looked interesting on paper and while they were tasty, I didn't find them anything to write home about. Overall it's still a beautiful evening and I will be lucky to go back again soon. read more

Our family have been coming here for seasonal lunches for few years. The food was superb and it was worth the 2-2.5 hours from the New York City. We also make it a Long Island wine tasting outing. However, this time was such a huge disappointment. The lobster scramble egg was tasteless. The sword fish toast was dry. Bucatini clam was well seasoned but oily. Duck confetti was dry and salty. They up dated the interior and is tastefully done but the food is not lived up with it unfortunately I will not return anymore. It used be one of my favorites. read more

Chef Fraser is an excellent chef. Excellent. He just is not a very good restauranteur. His places are never really welcoming. Overall the place is very meh. I've been to the restaurant three times. One time it was great. Another time is was mediocre (we never received our appetizers) And the last time it was down right bad. The only good thing that night was the wine and company. I don't know how the place will remain open in the future. read more

Feedback is a gift right? Burger & Milk bread were fantastic! The rest of the meal was poor. The baked clams were inedible, the actual seasoning/breadcrumbs were on point but the clam was chewy and overcooked. The salad with stone fruit presentation is great but it's was lacking, i would recommend some sweetness to the plate as I assume that was the point of the fruit, but none of the stone fruit nailed the sweetness at all. The Southold Grill was aggressively fish leaning, i think it would benefit from some shellfish or other seafood like a scallop or lobster. The taste was fine/boring, overwhelmingly very fishy. Cocktails were pretty good. A tad Expensive but par for the course. For the Stonefruit old fashioned, which is tasty, I would most likely not pair a 25 dollar cocktail with Makers Mark. Just sheer optics alone. NFTI has the potential, I think just a cold hard look on quality control and some menu refinements are needed and it could be back to what it was years ago. Good luck! read more
