1770 House Restaurant & Inn

I did not stay here, but a friend gave me a restaurant gift card for my birthday. Never mind which birthday. The food and service is of a very high standard. Also, no children running around tables. The Thai red curry shrimp soup was perfect. My wife loves her salad appetizer and the dressing was just about perfect. I had the steak with brussel sprouts and potato puree. Pure baby food. This will be a gift that keeps on giving as it will now be a regular spot for us.

The waiter was very nice and attentive . The food was just ok. Not worth the price. I spent close to $300 for two people and was given attitude by the manager when I asked the best way to walk to the back parking area. The door leading to the back garden right by tables where people dining and we didn’t want to disturb people… He could have been much nicer when asked a simple question and directed us to the best way out. Very déclassé and off putting . I ate inside tonight in the Tavern but only worth it if you have a table in the back garden on a good weather night which is pretty . I have had a good experience out there in the past. When I got to my car a large parked black SUV blocked me as well as several others from being to able to pull out. Welcome to the Hamptons.

A charming historic inn offering a cozy, elegant escape with beautifully appointed rooms and exceptional service. Fine dining in the main restaurant and casual tavern fare downstairs, especially the renowned meatloaf, deliver a memorable culinary experience. Its prime location on Main Street, just steps from downtown

This was one of the most wonderful dinners I’ve had in a while. Every course was fantastic, and our server Jack was incredibly helpful, kind and charming. I would recommend to anyone.

Very good cuisine in a very cute house. The room has a fireplace and everything is perfect. The price is very reasonable. The terrace is fantastic in summer. A place of local people with super friendly staff.

From the cozy Tavern to the summer patio, the experience is always great. The fluke tartare is a standout, and the wine selection is fantastic. Always fresh, always a good time.

Super cozy room with a fireplace. Nice and quiet. Awesome showers and the grounds are pretty. Close enough for a nice walk to the beach or to downtown for the shops. Highly recommend if cozy vibes is what you’re looking for.

Had dinner at the 1770 House Tavern. This was our second visit- my husband and I had eaten at the bar a year ago and had a lovely time, and so we were excited to return; we came for dinner with my parents over the long holiday weekend. The tavern is absolutely beautiful, with charming eighteenth-century architecture and decor (something my husband and I especially appreciate, as we are both historians). However, this visit was very disappointing. The waiter (Jack), was extremely rude and condescending for the duration of our stay. I am a vegetarian and asked if the tavern still served the amazing pizza/flatbread we had had last year. Jack informed us (with an attitude) that it was no longer on the menu. When I asked whether the kitchen had any vegetarian protein for the salads they had in their appetizer menu (no salads to be found under the “mains”), he asked what protein I’d like, and when I inquired about various meat substitutes (including different types of beans), he said they didn’t have any of that. When I asked what vegetarian protein the tavern did have (since he *had* asked), he smirked at me and said “none “ (and so, I wonder, why did he ask what protein I wanted, if he knew the kitchen couldn’t provide it?). I ultimately ordered a salad for dinner (it was excellent, though unfortunately none of the salads were “meal-sized” and so it was quite small and not filling). We also ordered drinks (after the query about vegetarian options). I asked Jack what the bar had in terms of beer. He ran through a short list pretty quickly (and not all of the names were recognizable, so it was unclear what kinds of beer each of these was). When I asked for clarification on the types of beer (IPA, ale, lager, etc), Jack was again condescending and rude. He seemed almost to take pleasure in being unpleasant to us. I was disappointed that 1770 House didn’t offer any vegetarian main meal options (or at least offer to throw together an alternative, as many restaurants do), though I would have still had a perfectly nice time there if our waiter Jack hadn’t been so incredibly unpleasant (as I said above: the space is beautiful, and also the bussing staff were kind and attentive, and the salad, albeit small, was very good). Jack absolutely needs some kind of customer service training. I would also appreciate the tavern adding a vegetarian main to their menu - and I imagine other patrons would as well!

This 5-star review was inspired by our server, Ed. He was outstanding. It was our first time dining there. We ate downstairs. The ambiance, menu, food, and place are great. We will be back! All the staff provided great and attentive service, but Ed stands out for his humor and for making you feel like you belong there. Look forward to returning soon.

Celebrating our 32nd anniversary, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening than the one we had at the 1770 House. The service was top-notch - attentive without being intrusive, allowing us to fully enjoy our special occasion. From the very beginning, the experience was delightful. The warm bread arrived fresh out of the oven, setting the stage for a delicious meal. Our entrées were truly exceptional. The monkfish and the New York strip steaks were bursting with flavor and cooked to absolute perfection. The ambiance in the main dining room was just what we were hoping for - comfortable and elegant, yet perfect for conversation. It allowed us to reconnect and reminisce over the years in a truly special setting. Thank you to the entire team at 1770 House for making our anniversary dinner one we will never forget. We highly recommend this restaurant for a truly memorable fine dining experience in the Hamptons.

I brought my mother here for two nights to celebrate her upcoming 90th birthday. Every single part of our stay there was absolutely stellar. Both Stephanie and Carol at the front desk went above and beyond in a very friendly, professional way to make us feel welcome in so many different ways. I actually dropped some cash out of my pocket while having a wonderful dinner in their main dining room and our waiter Brad picked it up and gave it to Carol... who in turn gave it to me. Holy Moley! This place is an absolute gem. The rooms were clean, well maintained, and beautifully detailed. My Mom's room, #6, was on the ground floor and had a lovely view of the back garden. We will most certainly be back for her next birthday!

Very upscale restaurant with a small yet diverse menu. It is very darkly lit and was very warm tonight, but overall a great spot for a quiet date night or friend's night out. We had a great waiter who was very attentive. The food was good. Not great in my opinion, but good. It definitely lacked seasoning/flavor/depth. I will say that my husband had the rabbit and loved it. Everything else was enjoyable. We were a party of 3 and our check was about $450. So, decently priced for the style of restaurant.

Spectacular, I'll eat here again and again. Our waiter, Ed, was knowledgeable and full of humor. We ate in the Tavern which allowed us to take advantage of both menus -- à la carte and pre-fixed. From start to finish, we had no notes. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. The wine list was chefs kiss.

An East Hampton Classic! This gorgeous restaurant has been an East Hampton staple for decades. You can feel the history as soon as you walk in or as you stroll in their garden. The tasting menu was amazing and the service is impressive. We had lovely red wine with our meal and everything was amazing! Insta: @thehungrysw

Wonderful service, ambiance and food. We brought our young son to dine with us and they were able to accommodate his preferences and allergies.

Lost respect for this place after they screwed up my birthday dinner. We called up and they confirmed we had a table in the main dining room. When we arrived they told us they never said that they had a table for us in the main dining room. They offered us a table in the tavern or outside for the same prefix menu. We had 4 people in our party all attest to hearing them say "no problem" and the manager didn't care. He claimed he trained his staff to never say "no problem" well I guess they just called my family a liar to my face. I will not be back again this summer. Thanks for ruining my night.

The 1770 house tavern was a big disappointment. Obtaining a reservation was not easy (btw, don't go through Open Table. If you do, and cancel the same day you are our $85.00 per person - based on House Prix Fixe, although their website says it's $65). Let's start with the service. The waiter was very loud - as if we were deaf. When asked if there were any vegetarian options (of the 4 of us 3 are vegetarian) he seemed incredulous (very, very limited - such as salads). Regarding food: There was nothing special with the dishes we ordered which included Balsam Farms Mesclun Greens & Roasted Butternut Squash Salad. The one carnivore amongst us got The Tavern Burger Proprietary Blend of Local Acabonac Farms Grass-Fed Beef. The so-called House-made Fries must have been a McDonald's recipe (see photo), but not anywhere as tasty. About the ambiance. Other than the beamed ceilings there is little resemblance to a 1770 tavern.

What a place! Best meal in the Hamptons after a long time. Just impeccable service, food, and ambience. Wine list was exquisite and the entire experience was worthy of a 40 minutes drive to get there from Bridgehamptons. Strongly recommended

I've been coming to 1770 House for many years and have always been happy with the quality of the food and the service. By Hamptons standards, their $80 prix fixe dinner is reasonably priced because the entrees are large: an appetizer and entree will be enough unless you are super hungry. Among entrees, the meatloaf, sea scallops and strip steak received highest reviews from the group I was with.

Everything was wonderful service impeccable Nate the waiter was so knowledgeable on the menu Ed the bartender couldn't have been nicer...food amazing. Gorgeous outside space as well as inside space. The whole experience was five star.

The 1770 house remains a great example of what it takes to be a great restaurant on a consistent basis. Year in, year out they are able to maintain an excellent ambiance, professional but friendly service & wonderful cuisine and cocktails. My wife and I have been dining here for a long time and we are always so excited about our next visit and, we have never been disappointed. A very special place indeed!!

This is our second time coming here. We came early to beat the crowd and it was worth it. Service was top notch in every respect. Applause applause. The food was very excellent with a menu that perfectly described the dishes and the taste. The chicken dish was moist and the sirloin cooked to order. We tried a banana type for desert and sorry we didn't have two. The decor is wonderful. Fun fact. The 1770 name was the year the house was turned into a restaurant. The house was built in the 1600.

When you go to a place like 1770 house, you expect an exceptional experience. The wait staff was super serious (not looking to have fun) and rushed along the meal. Food was OK but linguine with clam sauce dinner was served with red sauce - something that should clearly be shared in the menu or via the waiter.

Everything about this restaurant is outstanding. The food is superb, the ambiance is lovely and cozy and the service is excellent. Awesome experience. Highly recommend!

I had the delight of enjoying the outdoor seating with heating lamps to keep us warm & toasty while enjoying Rose wine and good company. 1770 House is a quaint boutique hotel with fireplaces throughout. Shopping and dining is walking distance. A wonderful place to visit on Long Island.

New to yelp and trying to give all my favorite places some love. 1770 house is delicious one of my favorite Italian places. Everything on their menu is good. Michelle was amazing to us and really knocked it out of the park as our server. Can't say enough good things about this place.

Food is outstanding. Staff friendly and professional. Ambience is elegant- and somehow relaxed - at the same time. A winning combo that keeps us coming back!

This review is for the restaurant exclusively. Truly enjoyed the atmosphere on a rainy evening, the fire was going and it felt so cozy. Very New England homey type vibes. The menu is a pre fixe here but you do have choices so you can choose your appetizer, entrée and dessert. Waitstaff was professional and friendly. The food was wonderfully delicious! Prepared perfectly and plated beautifully. I will absolutely be returning to this gem!

As my first indoor dining experience since COVID-19, the 1770 House was an incredible experience that will be hard to top. It was a wonderful welcome back to the high-end dining world while also a cute part of history in East Hampton. My partner and I ate in the tavern. Every other table was empty. Most of the patrons were not wearing masks, even when not eating, but all of the servers were. They also wore gloves. In the tavern, you also have the upstairs menu available as well as the tavern menu. We went for the prix fixe since there were so many good-sounding things to taste. And indeed, everything was good - even the side of bread with olive oil. The tuna starter, while small, was very fresh; and I loved the mushroom, spinach, and cherry salad. It could have been a teeny bit less dressed, but I loved the large chunks of mushrooms. The mains were both really stellar. The lamb was cooked to perfection, and the risotto was a great compliment. I've never had such tender, fall-off-the-bone rabbit; and I loved the fresh pesto pasta. Top it off with the ricotta cheesecake, which had blackberry drizzle and hazelnut crust. Truly divine. Sebastian, our server, was attentive and helpful. A truly epic and memorable meal!

Great food .. great service.. great atmosphere... worth the money... Try to sit downstairs.. it is an experience...

Classic spot and delicious food. Had the prix fixe menu with salad, asparagus, filet mignon and tied it all together with a cheesecake dessert. Would definitely come here again

My husband and I went to the tavern part of the restaurant. Burgers and a drink. The burgers were made exactly as we asked. My new favorite place for burgers and a drink.

Warm atmosphere in a historic house with classic old world décor. From cocktails to appetizers everything looked and tasted wonderful! Took my daughter for her 36th bday and she was very happy!

First fine outdoor dining during covid and was so glad it was at the 1770 House! They have heated lamps that made our outdoor dinner dining experience very pleasant. Also, the tables are 6ft apart. First off, their dinner rolls are fluffy and warm. Sooo good. HIGHLY recommend the burrata!! It was my favorite dish?! The wild mushroom salad was also delicious. The scallop and the short ribs were both salty. I would not recommend the short ribs. My husband enjoyed his pork tenderloins. We had a lovely dinner!

A beautiful restaurant in East Hampton! A luxurious experience that you won't experience anywhere. We waited in their waiting room while a table outside was being prepared for us (decorated beautifully with books and couches). And what a table: their outdoor seating is lit up by fairy lights, a fountain in the middle of the tables, and trees and flowers surrounding us like an oasis. The prix fixe meal was one of the best I've had. Highlights of the meal included the fluke tartare, foie gras, filet mignon and lastly for dessert, the sticky date cake. Our server was attentive, friendly, and helpful with any menu questions. Can't wait to return again!

Excellent food and service - cool atmosphere in the downstairs tavern. Loved the fluke sushi.

This restaurant is truly one of my favorites in the Hamptons but it's pricey so I only go on special occasions. Food is superb. Service is wonderful. It's so cozy and private.

I have been taking my mother to the 1770 House for many years. Our most recent visit was among the best yet. The hostess, Ingrid, greeted us warmly and seated us at our favorite table. Our server, Hannah, was excellent. She was very attentive. Our meal began with a very good shrimp cocktail. I had a delicious Tuscan kale soup....perfect for a cold winter night. My entree was the filet which was cooked perfectly. We had the date cake for dessert. Excellent! Ask for extra sauce! Thank you 1770 house for a wonderful meal!

It never disappoints. The food is always consistent. The freshness of the food, ingredients, fresh bread, house made sauces, so much love goes into all of the food. Enjoy the twists on the classics. The innovation is always there. Seasonal. This fine restaurant is dependable and offers delicious food, great service and memorable dining experiences. Whether you are a dedicated food aficionado or just in for a satisfying meal, the 1770 won't disappoint. By far the best restaurant in The Hamptons.

Great experience. Would recommend! Super cozy! Service was perfect. Food was on point

I can't say enough about the 1770 House. Been there many times but this last visit reminded me why I should go more often. Everything was perfect...The service was magic, the ambiance perfection and the food, well the food. I can't stop thinking about it. Sashimi Yellow tail, Strip Steak and mouth watering Pumpkin Cheesecake. Run don't walk.

Wow! I can't say enough good things about this restaurant! Four of us visited after reading that Ina Garten was a fan. And we were not disappointed. From the moment we walked in and were greeted by the hostess to the time that we exited after looking around the rooms on the first floor and the tavern in the basement, we were treated in a manner that took me back decades to a time when dining out was a treat and people dressed up and were made to feel special. The ambience was to die for inside and out. We chose to eat outside and our server, Christy, got us settled in right away. She never told us that "she would be taking care of us tonight", she just did it, along with Ajay helping out. All of the staff were professional and extremely well trained. I seriously have not had this level of service in years! They just got everything right. They didn't have to ask who had which dish and they were super attentive without being in the way. Emily Post would have been impressed with the attention to detail in the manner in which the food was placed and how the dishes were removed. Water was magically refilled when necessary. And leftovers were brought to us at the very end of the meal, nicely packaged. We were just able to enjoy the evening with our friends and everything flowed like magic. And the food! Everything was fabulous. We had a variety of dishes from appetizers to desserts and it was all delicious. Don't pass this restaurant by. You will not be disappointed.

1770 House is located in a historic home in East Hampton. We visited for dinner and really enjoyed our night. The restaurant offered a two-course prix fixe menu (which now seems to be a three-course menu). There was a local influence in many of the options for each course (which you choose), and they were all quite tasty. We tried the spicy montauk fluke tartare and a salad to start. The tartare had a great flavor and wasn't too spicy. The beet and endive salad was nice as well. We then tried the halibut and chicken as our mains, which were solid. The halibut had a lovely flavor (but was pretty salty), and the chicken was perfectly cooked (but could have used more seasoning) and came on a flavorful risotto bed. The ambience is great. We didn't sit in the main dining roll but instead in the "tavern" downstairs. We were the only ones there for much of our night, so it was terrifically peaceful and quiet. Service was great all around and super friendly, and the place had a nice old school vibe. We'd happily go back!

First timer staying at the nearby Baker House 1650 bed and breakfast. Service and food were everything their reputation and reviews note. I ordered the 3-course dinner with the off-menu but well-known meatloaf. First course tuna tartare, second course the seared scallop and then the meatloaf. It was a lot of food, but every morsel was perfectly cooked, well thought out and delicious.

Fantastic! Went here for our anniversary dinner. The ambiance, drinks, food and service are top tier. Will be back for sure.

The food at this restaurant 1770 house restaurant East Hampton New York is delicious! But the last time I was in this place they discriminated against me for having a foreign accent. Our reservation was at 6:15 pm. The girl took my coat to the closet and I waited for me to sit at the table. A couple arrived at the same time as me but they had their reservation at 6:30 pm, they gave them the privilege of seating them first than me and I was still waiting. The manager had the nerve to tell me if I wasn't satisfied it was better that I go somewhere else for dinner. The truth is I looked at her and didn't say anything. but I felt horribly offended... and I am a person who speaks 7 languages. That's when I realized that the manager is so ignorant without education.

Birthday dinner done correctly. Everything was phenomenal. Our server Jack knew the menu inside and out and made great reservations. Only food item I was not a fan of was the duck. The honey sauce was just way to sweet for my taste.

Very cozy and cute inside. Got takeout - the burger was just ok and the pork tenderloin pretty good but the portion very small. It was ready on time and the service was friendly.

Great food, gorgeous. Best restaurant in east hampton. Fab foie gras, lamb, wine desserts not amazing

Came to The 1770 House for my birthday over the weekend and had a great experience! My husband surprised me with a birthday dinner during our Hamptons weekend and I really enjoyed everything! The restaurant has a delightful three course menu that is $75 dollars per person, I will get into what we had in a bit. We started our meal with a few cocktails; I had a dirty martini, while my husband had a lemon martini both were excellent, However, I wish that they had blue cheese stuffed olives for my dirty martini (it truly is the only way to drink a dirty these days) For the food: My courses: First course - Chilled corn soup (great flavor overall) Second course - Local sweet corn risotto (this dish was fantastic and I loved the summer truffle atop the dish) Third course - Crisp Maitake Mushrooms (the mushrooms were everything and I loved the quinoa!) My husbands courses: First course- Crisp Local Zucchini Flower Salad (he said the vinaigrette was perfect) Second course - Lobster and Snap Pea Pasta (he said the lobster was cooked to perfection) Third course - Prime Filet Mignon (the filet was done just right and he loved the bok Choy) We ended our meal with dessert I must recommend the sticky bread cake! It was phenomenal:) I would definitely check this place out again once the menu switches up with new vegetarian options. Thanks for a great birthday dinner!

Great little inn. We stayed in the guest house which was fantastic with two bedrooms and a living room with a fireplace and seating area as well as a dining nook. It had a sweet little front porch that overlooks the patio where the restaurant serves dinner. Would 100% stay again. The breakfast that's included is great and the kitchen and staff are very accommodating.

What a wonderful dining experience during this time! This place is one of my favorites of all time in Hamptons. But this time, it exceeded my expectations and I know why I always enjoy this restaurant. Throughout the evening, attentive service even though the outside setting is so spreading & big space, amazing food & perfect temperature and I personally enjoyed more with outdoor dining experience than usual indoor seating. It's absolutely gorgeous setting & received wonderful service as usual. It was a little chilly night but the heating lamp kept me warm enough to enjoy the evening.

1770 House has great food. Maybe that's what people want most in a restaurant. I also want ambiance and this place has none. If you emptied out the tables upstairs and put in rows of folding chairs, it could double as a funeral parlor. I felt like I should bring a defibrillator if I ever returned. The basement is a bit more lively. Bring a fat wallet. You'll need it.

One of the best meals I've had in 2019. I can't say enough good things about this place. From the staff to the location, the level of service, the intimacy of the dining room... the gorgeous outside area. It was just perfect. Every single detail. When we got to our food, it exceeded all expectations. Capped off our meal with a drink outback on their seat swings. This place is special. Take someone you love and indulge.

Delicious burgers. I came with a group that comes here yearly before Thanksgiving, a family ritual. Add bacon to your burger and definitely get the fries.

Very polite service. Beautiful outdoor patio. We had a wonderful table under a gorgeous tree. Unfortunately the quality of food preparation is really poor. After dining in Michelin star restaurants, local bars and street carts I can say overly saturated sauces mask the beauty and simplicity of the local ingredients we were told about. After all there is no need to present pure clean and fresh local greens with a concoction of heavy cream, ricotta and spicy mayo!!!! One of the main courses we tried was a pork chop. The meat was great, however the heavy sauce made it almost intolerable to digest. Rabbit and pasta were okay. Pasta was once again a heart attack on a plate. When we arrived I considered making a reservation for an upcoming birthday celebration; glad I did not. Will not be dining there again.
