Montauk is still a place where people can relax and unwind in the Hamptons, and it’s also a perfect destination for people who love food, offering lots of casual and fine dining eateries that are ideal spots for kicking back and enjoying the local flavors from the land and sea. Restaurants on the beach where sunsets get a round of applause; restaurants where every course is a sensory experience; and restaurants who have earned international acclaim ~ take your pick in Montauk!

Foodies and wine lovers experienced Montauk’s signature dishes and Chef’s specialties from a variety of notable restaurants [below] at “A Taste of Montauk” – a new event presented by The Montauk Chamber of Commerce on Sunday, July 21st at the newly-renovated Montauk Downs/360 East Restaurant [above].
