Restaurants near Hampton Bays Station

Great atmosphere! The restaurant was packed. The Caesar salad was very much a surprise as it was one of the best I’ve had in a casual restaurant-highly recommend. Smash burger was yummy. Delicious Prosecco accompanied my meal. I love the place. Looking forward to the expansion. The owner has worked tirelessly to be “more” than a restaurant owner. He is so supportive of his hometown community-a man for others.

Maitre D' (?) was exceptional. He greeted us promptly, informed us that our reserved table was not ready ( we were early,) and escorted us to the bar for a drink. The mixologist concocted a perfect Olde Fashioned and actually brought it to us in the sitting room in front of the fire. Within 5 minutes we were escorted to our table, again in front of a cozy fire. Music played in the background, a little loud (just a bit) and perhaps an odd mix of tunes for an elegant setting. Since we had our drink order the server took our starter and main requests. Unfortunately, we, unlike every other guest, did not receive a bread basket. We did ask for one after our starters arrived, but it never showed up. Our mains were perfectly cooked. My wife had the steak ( medium rare) and I had the short ribs. My wife had asked that the fried potatoes be changed to mashed but we were told that substitutions were not possible. That was off-putting at these prices. Dessert was chocolate mousse and coffee for the lady and I opted for the double Irish coffee. The mousse arrived without even being noticed as it was placed in the center of the table. A goblet of mousse without a supporting plate, classless. The Irish coffee was outstanding, again thanks to the mixologyist. All in all a pleasant evening. Maybe a little more attention to small details would elevate the experience to the next level.

Great food and ambiance. Nice setting food is nicely prepared. Good wine selection.

Excellent food! Too bad there weren’t more customers to enjoy the food

R'AIRE Is a rare find in the Hamptons. Delicious, quality, locally sourced food and a varied menu served in a calm, understated setting. Our favorite!!!!
