If you are looking for quiet and secluded, this is one of my secret and favorite spots. They offer brunch Sunday Mornings, and their nightly dinners are outstanding. Located in the Surfside Inn, is a beautiful restaurant overlooking the Ocean. It is not often packed, as it is a tad out of town on Old Montauk Highway headed West on the Right hand side. A perfect place for a calm, relaxed and five star meal. If you are looking for a quaint romantic night, take a cab =, enjoy your meal, cross the street and take a stroll on the beach all the way back to town ( which isn't as far as it seems). Five Star Food with First Class Service. Reservations are recommended although not always necessary.

Certainly not in walking distance away, but this place is known for local and fresh seafood. Great Appetizers, Entrees and Sushi .The menu even tells you which local fishing boats it gets its seafood from! Great Dinner spot, awesome view of the Sunset! Located on the East side of the Inlet, overlooking the inlet and bay. Watch all the boats come in as the sun sets and you enjoy a delicious meal.

If you are looking for the old Montauk Fisherman feel, this is the place to go. NO Cell Phones, and NO Children Allowed. This place is known for pub food on a whole new level! Aside from some of my personal favorite food in Montauk, this place is crawling with character! Everywhere you look there is character! The place screams old Montauk Salty Fisherman, Sarcasm and old time local values! I cannot stress enough, get at least one seafood item and one sandwich and one thing off of the specials board! Also, I cannot stress to you enough, please do not answer your cell phone inside.

Maximum Capacity: 21 People....so we all sit outside =). Head to Liars for an afternoon Mudslide, or a well poured nighttime liquor drink. Although not the most ascetically pleasing establishment, it sure has a lot of heart. This is the most local watering hole you will find where our saying "A drinking town with a fishing problem" is rooted. Bar tenders are always friendly and drinks are WELL poured! Oh!..did i mention? $1.00 draft beers and they are open until 4am!! While you are ordering your drinks, look around inside and notice the hundreds of pictures covering the walls and tables from generations and generations of local fishermen.

Turn left on Surfside Ave, and follow it all the way until the dead end and the trail is at the end of the dead end. This is only of my favorite places to run in the mornings!
