"An East End outpost run by the Hillstone group with Polo Bar–like Americana decor (framed flag, vintage pommel horse); it stays open year‑round and draws both locals and summer visitors. Meals can be occasionally excellent (sticky, fall‑off‑the‑bone 'fork and knife' ribs were highlighted), though some steaks have been criticized as oversalted; the dining room reliably provides a lively scene, house martinis, and celebratory desserts." - Matthew Schneier
