"A seafood-leaning restaurant offering ceviches and spicy tuna tartare taquitos." - Kate Donnelly

"This colorful seafood shack sits on a quiet stretch of sand that most people drive by without noticing, and it’s an excellent option for either lunch or dinner. They do a pared-down midday menu that includes plates of rice, microgreens, beets, and charred pineapple, along with hefty grilled chicken croissantwiches. This is generally just a fun place to eat and hang out—the foyer features fuzzy chairs and a quote from Jaws in neon signage, and outside, there’s plenty of seating and enough cedar shake to have you feeling like you’re on the Cape. If you’re there for dinner, order a rum and prosecco cocktail and pair it with a few small plates of smokey eggplant and local clams, plus the whole grilled fish to split." - sal vaglica

This was a mixed experience for us. I think it’s always difficult when one person’s meal arrives much later than everyone else’s, and in this case, they did comp the food! That was the right thing to do! But it was also awkward, and we had just flown in from North Carolina and it took so long for our friend’s meal to come, that the entire night was basically centered around just having this meal. Again, the meal was comped. Thank you Little Fish. I also was not happy with the service. So this would have been four stars to begin with, and then it would’ve lowered quite a bit because of the missing food, but then raised again to three stars, because the meal was comped! I understand it’s difficult for servers when the meal is not coming out, but I would prefer to see them bustling around, asking if we needed water and drinks, rather than ignoring us. There were long stretches of time when we had no idea what was happening with the missing meal, and, an update would be nice. There were also times we were looking around for water and we were looking around for more cocktails, and the server was not around. Let’s talk about the food. I had the monkfish tiki masala. And it was very good, but monkfish is so light that I’m wondering if this is the correct pairing. The tiki masala sauce was excellent, but completely overwhelmed the monkfish. I’m wondering if they could use another fish that could stand up to it. And serve monkfish in a different way. Monkfish is so lovely by itself; perhaps either dial back on the sauce, or consider another fish for the tiki masala. Again, the tiki masala sauce was excellent. My friend had the Puri Piri chicken, and that’s what took so long to come. Once it arrived, he said it was really quite good.

What a great done!!!! Do you want that Caribbean vibe? Well Little Fish is the place to be! As soon as you walk in, you are struck by the wow of amazing colors, decorations and atmosphere! I’m getting excited writing this now, the day after we were there. We started off with an array of cocktails which were just amazing! I had the Halekulani which was just amazing and fruity! The dark n stormy was a big hit as well! We ordered so much it was just crazy!!!! The oysters (out of this world) with their amazing dipping sauce. The duck wings were the best in an Asian ginger sauce (OMG). The spicy tuna tacos and the Mezze were amazing as well. ( my mouths watering!). The mussels were so delicious in a white wine sauce served with 2 nice slices of crust bread! We also had their burger which was cooked perfectly, lobster rolls served in a Giant croissant which was stuffed up nice with lobster! The blackened fish tacos were killer!!! The grilled chicken coissantwich was delicious as well. Too much to eat and so much to say about little fish!!!! Get there and enjoy a Caribbean experience that will be unforgettable!!

Lobster roll comes on a fresh croissant. Pat Lafrieda burger is tasty with textured fries. A unique atmosphere with a reggae beat.

Having left our credit card at the restaurant last evening, we decided to have dinner again for the second time at The Little Fish. Everything is perfect at this restaurant. The decor is eclectic and unique. All the employees are friendly and provide right on for details of menu items and drinks. Our server was Sam. Tonight our beverages were a Thai basil daiquiri and a Classic Cointreau Margarita. Both were perfect. For our appetizers had perfectly grilled locally caught whole red shrimp on a ají amarillo sauce. Also we enjoyed the Mermaid Makeout Oysters which consisted of Herb Oil, Charred Pineapple Relish, Cracked Pink Peppercorn and Classic Mignonette. Wild Fennel Mussels consisting of Local Wild Fennel, Shallots, Herb Butter, White Wine, Pernod and Grilled Sourdough. We also enjoyed the Little Fish Cornbread which is their Signature Little Fish Shaped Cornbread which is Baked to Order served with Honey Butter. The owner Arden was very pleasant to talk to. He has a wonderful restaurant and staff.

This place is incredible! A well rounded menu, and tons of seafood and vegetarian options. We specifically tried the tuna tartare taquitos and the chicken croissantwich - both equally delicious! We also had the key lime pie, which was the best I’ve ever had! The staff was super friendly, and the space is set in such a peaceful location pretty much on Kenney’s Beach. Would love to go back some time! Parking was also super easy.

I made a reservation for last night for a table away from the live music and it was ready when we arrived. The live music was very nice and people were enjoying it. If I was there for just drinks, i would have preferred that side of the room. It’s a brightly painted room, lots of artwork, clean and busy! Plenty of outdoor seating and almost every seat was taken. The AC was a little strong so bring a sweater. Our server was very nice, knowledgable and accommodating. My spicy margarita was one of the best I ever had and they use all natural ingredients. My husband and I ordered a stacked crab app special which was nice…delicious green goddess dressing, a Caesar salad which was absolutely delicious, and 2 entrees which we shared. The swordfish Milanese and the ribs. The fish was not the customary swordfish steak but a thinner cut, breaded and fried to perfection….there were 2 giant portions with some greens and feta on the plate. Delish. The ribs were unbelievably tender, sweet & slightly spicy with a side of slaw that was just perfect. My husband has an aversion to cilantro so he didn’t eat the slaw but i adore cilantro and loved it. It was the perfect amount of food for 2 hungry people. Although they did have some very pricey items on the menu, our bill was reasonable especially compared to some other restaurants on the North Fork. It’s very easy to get to and has a big parking lot in the back. Overall, we had a great experience and will recommend it to everyone.

This little gem of a place is truly wonderful. The entire staff is so friendly but I hope Sam is forever there because she is a star! From the recommendations which were on point to her bubbly personality - she was such a pleasure! The menu is small but perfection. Everything we had was so flavorful - the tacos, the squid, the chicken sandwich ⭐️ the Caesar salad - all so very good and fresh! The drinks were strong but really good! And we ended with a chocolate cake desert and cappuccinos. The beach is two blocks away. It is a private beach but you can take a quick walk over after eating. Really glad I found this spot. Will be a new fave on the list.

We had a great time here. The service was well-paced, super friendly, and efficient. The vibe is what I'd call "surfer cozy." My boyfriend and I sat outside at one of the high-top tables, which were really nice. I could even forgive the fact that we were basically in the parking lot because we could smell the salt air of the ocean which was just steps away. Ok now for the food: The overall menu looked great. We went at 1pm for lunch, so the menu was a split between all day menu items and lunch items. The all day options looked great. I was eyeing the ceviche, and the crab green goddess, but ultimately chose the Mahi Mahi tacos on the lunch menu. My boyfriend usually gets a lobster roll but didn't like the fact that their lobster roll is served in a croissant because he hates croissants (I don't know what's wrong with him. That dish looked perfect when the other table’s came out.). So he ended up ordering the burger. - Mahi Mahi tacos: hard shell tacos with coleslaw, grilled mahi mahi, and topped with mango salsa. Served with a side salad of arugula and pickled onion. 4/5 - These were good. Personally, I'd have liked these in a soft tortilla. With the wet coleslaw on the bottom of the hard shell, it was a tiny bit difficult to eat. The mango salsa was excellent but kept falling off. I didn't care for the side salad. I would have preferred shishito peppers or chips or something on the side. I would have also liked some sort of aioli served with it. But really these were small things based on my preferences and it was pretty good. Also, I have Celiac disease and they were great about accommodating me and ensuring they informed me of everything containing gluten. - The Burger: A burger with aged cheddar, tomato jam, pickled onions, Calabrian aioli, and french fries. Served with pickles and pineapple on the side. 3.5/5 - My boyfriend says, “It was cooked perfectly and it tasted good. There was just a lot of stuff on it. The bun was alright. There was too much sauce.” He loved the fries and he says, “they were f****** perfect.” He’s not a big sauce guy and from looking at the burger, there was quite a bit of the tomato jam. I’m not a big tomato jam person either to be honest. He loved the aioli. Overall, we would absolutely go again. We both really enjoyed the meal.

Little Fish doesn't need my review, and my neighbors would probably rather we keep it secret. I've had about four meals here now. All were consistently delicious. And the service is excellent. I think we had the same server every time. She makes great recommendations. What do I love about Little Fish. I'm a local fish freak. I almost always have the local fish special. It's almost always Black Sea bass or sea bass. Tonight it was BSB with grilled fennel. So wonderful. We also had the mussels in a coconut cream sauce. That sauce was so tasty. And we had the awesome Caesar salad with lemon. I'm dying to try the Basque cheese cake. Tonight we had the chocolate fudge cake. Location-wise, Little Fish is right off the beach near the Long Island Sound. It's a great place to be. If you're driving through the North Fork from the ferry on your way to NYC. Little Fish is a great place to stop and take a dinner break.

After a delightful afternoon at a nearby winery, we decided to continue the birthday celebration at Little Fish, a beloved local seafood spot in Long Island. This place is well-loved by locals, and it's easy to see why. The atmosphere was inviting, and we were greeted with great hospitality. We started off with some drinks and proceeded to sample a variety of dishes. I opted for the lobster roll, which was quite good. Although I prefer my lobster roll warm, the cold version served here was delicious, accompanied by coleslaw, a salad, and some tasty chips. My friends tried the duck wings and found them quite satisfying. Another friend ordered the cesaer salad with shrimp, which she thought was just okay but still enjoyable. One of the highlights of our meal was sampling their newest dessert, a chocolate s'mores dish. As a chocolate lover, I found it absolutely delightful and would highly recommend trying it once it's officially on the menu. Overall, Little Fish is a great spot for seafood lovers and offers a variety of dishes to suit different tastes. Whether you're in the mood for classic seafood fare or looking to try something new, this place won't disappoint. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

Little Fish has a very eclectic/Caribbean feel. The food is as good as most of the review advertise and the staff was friendly. I went with my Mother on 4th of July for a mid afternoon lunch, my only critique is for a day that wasn't that busy I expected the food to come out a little quicker than almost 40 minutes. My Mom loved the burger & I enjoyed the fish tacos & tuna tartare tostada. All in all it's definitely worth checking out.

saw this spot pop up on Instagram and was looking for a dinner place on the Fourth of July and thank gosh we booked a reservation here for dinner! There was live music playing inside and the space was so vibrant with the decor and the atmosphere was very fun and welcoming. We ended up sitting outside and keep in mind this spot is less than a block away from the beach so we are hopeful that we might be able to see fireworks (and we did!!). The staff is super friendly and recommended a few different dishes for my mom and I to try and share. The flavors are very seafood, focused, but go together in ways that I never expected - everything was so delicious and I really can't wait to come back and try new things. This is a hidden gem right off of main road in Southold and for anyone looking for a great spot to eat definitely come here !!

Another hidden gem on the North Fork. Though maybe not so hidden as the place was very busy. The vibe is terrific. Very colorful and comfortable. There's a difference between great service and friendly service. The service here is very friendly, including a drop by from the owner. Food is the star. Mezze platter rocked! Amazing flavors and perfectly toasted pita. The monfish Tikka masala is genius. I was very skeptical but so glad I ordered it. The curry is excellent and the monkfish holds up incredibly well. We went for dinner and are planning a return visit for lunch.

Wow! What a great experience! Such a breath of fresh air! Having traveled to the North Fork for years, we struggled with finding a decent restaurant to have a dinner that's open on Mondays. Little Fish is our choice from now on! Innovative cuisine, super fresh ingredients, very friendly service. We had: Roasted Lemon Caesar, Ceviche, Fish Milanese, Monkfish Tikka Masala, Fish Tacos. Every dish was better than another! What added to the experience was a magnificent view of the sunset, which added to the overall atmosphere! It's not cheap, but definitely worth it!

Really enjoyed my meal here. The restaurant has a cozy, rustic, beachy vibe. All different age groups were happily eating here at the same time. Seating options include a bar area as well as normal dining room. The servers were all very friendly. And the food was excellent. The menu is slightly eclectic, featuring traditional dishes with a twist. The steak was delicious, cooked perfectly with great flavor and a nice quality of meat. The spicy tuna tacitos were so good - freshly made with a nice crunch on the outside and delicious filling on the inside. Don't miss their signature key lime pie dessert, it has a grham cracker crust and delicious tangy filling - yum!

Food, service, ambiance 10 out of 10. Don't sleep on this place, it's a hidden gem on the north fork. The flavors are an eclectic fusion of culinary diversity. They had dishes from a Mediterranean mezze platter to Monk Fish Tikka Masala. Everything worked together beautifully. No notes. The kitchen nailed each dish. Service was excellent. We had the luxury of being served by a young lady named Sam who guided us through our ordering and she didn't miss on any of her picks. We even asked for an encore on the tuna tartare taquitos, they were delicate yet robust in flavor. Down to the last bite of our dessert we enjoyed every bite of each dish she selected for us. Ambiance was a cool island vibe. My husband and I both felt like we were on a Caribbean vacation as we absorbed the bright colored walls, tropical plants, and modern finishes. We left the restaurant planning our next return. Great place.

I ate here last November and returned this summer. It's a bit busy, but the food and service are good. The restaurant is quite family-friendly. However, a customer put their feet on a chair, and no one addressed it. It made me uncomfortable and disgusted. I was wondering how often the restaurant cleans up the fur on the chairs.

The Quick: Fantastic seafood (and even a vegetarian and meat option!) Wonderful live music on the weekends, fun drunk menu, overall amazing new spot. The Details: Little fish is in their "soft launch" phase with a small menu, and we were still blown away. Everything we tried was delicious. The whole group was thrilled, we cannot wait to return. Highly recommend the fisherman's fried platter and the mussels... Some of the largest mussels we've ever had The Damage: Typical for the area

The food is good. The menu is thoughtful and something different than the usual The ingredients are fresh We happened to have a very good waitress but I'll tell you. The place is run by kids. Like teens and maybe people in their 20's. They are working SO hard but it's a little disorganized and some people are waiting too long for food and you can hear them apologizing or diners need to ask where stuff is or ask for things missing from their plates like a rice side dish for example. The other thing is the waiters are also bussing their own tables and I'm a little concerned about how clean the kitchen and the employees hands are. You can kind of see into where they bring dishes and it's also where they fill your water bottles and the outside of the bottles are dirty and you can see why. They are touching clean and dirty dishes simultaneously. They could use some training and a good strong manager but they were all kind to us and work so so hard The bartender needs some training - my drink was just ok and the glass should be bigger and drinks could be colder. $17 for a small drink w hardly any liquor The eggplant was good but the burrata was better Nice to have gf bread option but it was a packaged gf roll warmed and cut into quarters - not baked there The wild rice dish was also vegetarian and lightly flavored even though it smells aromatic you don't taste what you smell - it gets most of its flavor from the super fresh veg and micro greens topping it. Rice itself could use some more flavor and maybe a vegetarian protein added to it or to the menu - a nice mushroom dish or something Vegan panna cotta a nice option. The topping gives most of the flavor and the base is more coconut flavor and kind of just tastes like solid coconut cream. The menu marks items vegan and gf I'm so happy to see more then 1 vegetarian option that's not just a pasta or a dish of grilled vegetables Really cute interior Small outdoor dining area FYI it gets very loud Also if you go after sundown it's very very dark there Sometimes they have live music

Staff here is very nice and accommodating. Very cute place with some outside seating. It was very sunny so we chose to sit inside. Inside is very well decorated but I was confused why a beach themed restaurant would have seats lined with fur material. Our service continued to be great and the food was phenomenal. The drinks could be improved. I think we tried two of the cocktails and they didn't have much flavor.

The food and service were definitely 5 stars! I am removing a star for the live music because it was that unenjoyable. Came here for a special birthday dinner. We sat outside and immediately felt like we were transformed to somewhere tropical: Hawaii, Bahamas, take your pick! It was a beautiful summer evening and being only a block from the beach made the ambience extra special. We ordered a bunch of small plates so we could try everything we thought looked the most amazing on the menu! I love that the items were brought out as they were prepared, so we weren't bombarded with 5 small plates at once. We were well-attended-to by our server Annie M. throughout our visit! We ordered the following small plates: Spicy Tuna Tartare Taquitos Green Goddess Crab (lettuce stuffed with crab and avocado) Red Dragon Noodles Smokey the Eggplant Fritto Misto della Casa Monkfish Tikka Masala (we shared this entree) Baked-to-Order Cornbread (4 fish-shaped cornbreads--so darn cute!) Key Lime Pie Everything was fantastic and a really interesting mix of cuisines all made with quality ingredients. I'd be interested in knowing where some of the ingredients came from; if Little Fish is collaborating with local farms or fisheries I think that would be neat information to add to the menu. If they aren't, I would definitely encourage them to consider partnering with the plethora of North Fork farmers and fishers! My only complaint would be the live music--too loud and not in tune! We sat outside because we didn't want to get bombarded with sound, only for them to blast the live music through the outdoor speakers (thankfully they turned it down when we requested). While we appreciate the efforts and training that go into music-making, the singer was very noticeably and uncomfortably out-of-tune as she sang while playing the guitar. Live music only enhances the ambiance if it sounds good and doesn't overpower the atmosphere. While this is a laid-back atmosphere, it doesn't strike me as one that demands loud music at all due to the smallish size of the establishment. Live music could be a treat a couple nights a week; it's not necessary for it to happen every night if the quality isn't going to be up-to-par. It is, however, a neat little venue for emerging musicians! Including food, beverages, tax, and tip, our bill for a party of 2 was over $200. Worth every penny! We will DEFINITELY return to Little Fish to explore more items on the menu!

The food is absolutely delicious but very expensive. I had the catch of the day (sea bass, advertised as 2 lbs before deboning, de-heading, etc for $60 but in reality was a normal portion). My husband had the swordfish, which was huge and breaded but delicious. We were hankering for some bread, but sourdough for $14 just seemed crazy as that's 2x the price of a whole loaf at Whole Foods. The ambience was great. Super cute and cozy and there was a guitar soloist entertaining us. The service was very slow and not attentive at all. All in all $200 for 2 dinners, 4 beers and 2 margaritas.

I was informed by Arden the business manager that the "lobster special" was actually a whole butterflied black sea bass which servers 2 to 4 people. My apologies for misunderstanding the specials. I must have zoned out after hearing $140. I increased my rating to 4 stars since we did enjoy our meals and like the effort and creativity by chef and staff and that he took the time to respond to my review.

Great little place near Kenney beach. Our waitress Sam was fantastic. We were a party of 5. We had Duck wings, Not Your Mamas Mezze and Shishito peppers for apps. Black Sea bass for two, ribs, monkfish curry, and lobster roll for dinner. Everything was delicious. Great food and drinks. Great ambiance. Live music. We will be back.

The food was delicious. We stopped in for a light dinner at the bar. We shared the grilled asparagus, black fish ceviche and the swordfish Milanese. All were absolutely scrumptious. I can wait to go back. I'm craving that swordfish! It's an adorable spot too, right near Kenny Beach.

**Restaurant Review: A Culinary Oasis with Unmatched Hospitality** If you're on the hunt for a dining experience that not only delights your taste buds but also warms your soul, look no further. From the moment you step through the door, the welcoming embrace of the staff makes you feel like you've come home. Their genuine warmth sets not only sets the tone but makes it so you never want to leave. Now, let's talk about the food--oh, the food! I started with the sea bass, drizzled in a cilantro chimichurri that was nothing short of mouthwatering. The fish was perfectly tender, with the chimichurri adding a twist that I didn't see coming. And this wasn't my first rodeo here. I've previously indulged in the tikka masala monkfish, a dish so rich and flavorful that it transports you to the spice markets of India with every mouthful. The tuna tartare taquitos are another standout--a playful yet sophisticated twist on classic flavors, with each bite offering a delightful crunch followed by the melt-in-your-mouth freshness of the tuna. It's the perfect light summer dish. As I'm writing this, someone just shouted from across the room, "The swordfish dish is the best I've ever had!". This place is full of delightful surprises, where even the simplest sauces become unforgettable stars of the meal. The cocktails? Pure paradise. Each one feels like a mini Caribbean vacation, expertly crafted to whisk you away to sun-soaked beaches with just a sip. And let's not forget the wine list. They've handpicked a selection of local wines from the North Fork, which makes you feel at home. It's a joy to see these local gems celebrated here, each glass perfectly paired to enhance the meal. This restaurant doesn't just serve food--it offers a celebration of flavors, comfort, and community. It's a place where you're welcomed with open arms and leave with a full heart and a satisfied palate. You'll be thanking me later!

My wife and I ate at Little Fish last night. This was my third time. It was my wife's second as I had visited the place for dinner last summer by myself. At that time I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, sitting on the outside deck looking out towards Kinney Beach and the Long Island Sound. The Monk Fish Tiki Marsala was great. The second time we ate at LF was during this past fall. My wife had some friends over from Thailand. For some reason no one enjoyed their meal. True, it was a bit off. Last night I enjoyed my meal of Ceviche and Dragon Noodles. My wife had the catch of the day which was Black Sea Bass. The temperature of the fish was a bit on the warm versus hot side. My wife wasn't 100% happy with it but it was still a good meal. The fish was very fresh and the sauce was very tasty. The ambiance of LF is local and family. We dined on a Monday night. The tables were full of families young (at least three tables had multiple kids) and old. We've not been there on a weekend so perhaps there is a change of clientele during the summer months. Not sure though. We don't venture off our property on the weekends during July and August. The North Fork was once devoid of douche bags but now the summer months are overflowing with the worst of the worst...especially on the weekends. Oh well...it is hard to keep a good thing secret nowadays. The service was friendly and good---not professional though. Some of the servers looked very young. Very. The hostess couldn't have been over 16 years old. And the runner, a pretty red head with a nose ring, couldn't have been over 18. The busboy was maybe 20. He seemed a bit lost. But they all got the job done better than some of the older, more professionals I have run into. One draw back for my wife - though no fault of the restaurant - was a woman sitting at a table across from us... only a few ah feet from my wife. She wasn't wearing any shoes and had rested her feet on the chair next to her. Well, it is a seaside restaurant but...a restaurant is not one's living room. Enough said about that.

When we are out on the North Fork, we always have a meal (or two) at the lovely, fun, and delicious Little Fish. I recommend the Caesar salad, all the specials, and whatever the wonderful wait staff tell you to get! They often have music, or we sit outside with our dog at one of the picnic-like tables. Our waitress was incredible this year. I've forgotten her name, but I know she loves dogs

One of the best restaurants in the North Fork, and better than most restos in the Hamptons. Definitely worth the traffic driving from the city. Great service, ambiance, fresh and high quality delicious food. Generous staff as they sold out of medium sea bass I ordered and substituted a larger fish complimentary. Will return atleast once a month.

THE LIVE MUSIC IS TOO LOUD!! We just dined on a Friday night and we're seated near the front. The guitar/ harmonica player was playing at a volume more appropriate to Madison Square Garden than Little Fish - which is a small space. Screaming the lyrics!! The food was excellent. Part of the dining experience is being able to talk to those at your table. That was impossible! Ditch the live music. Totally unnecessary- and you could fit extra tables!!

The food was great, the service rushed and we were asked to leave for another group while other tables were ready to depart. We were not unreasonable in our time spent dining a 6:30 res and left 8:30 with our cappuccinos warm on the table..lots of apologies and an excuse for disgruntled waiting party! We were cordial to the manager and promptly left. Not coming back

The menu is versatile and you can likely find something for everyone. I'm gluten free and have gone back on multiple occasions for the ribs and the green goddess crab. They are both spectacular. Every drink I've tried on their menu has been so tasty but I must say, there's something about the way they make an Aperol Spritz. Part of it may be how well the spritz hits amongst the epic sunset views and sherbet walls. It is a vibe. They had live music a couple times I went which created a fun and energized (but not too loud) atmosphere. Overall, I think Little Fish is going to be a big hit. They are a great addition to the North Fork. I will certainly be returning.

Amazing spot with tasty flavorful fresh foods , each and every dish was impeccable, you feel like you're on a mini vacation / right by the beach. Drinks were great, recommend the watermelon margarita.

This was arguably one of the best meals I have ever had in my life. Sam was such a great server and made the experience fun as well. This place is adorable, so aesthetically pleasing. Highly recommend the swordfish-AMAZING, and also the coffee dry rubbed steak was cooked perfectly. We ended our meal with a key lime pie and the crust was heavenly. Will absolutely drive over an hour to come back here again

At Little Fish, the food doesn't match the restaurant! The restaurant is a typical ocean front bar & grill that's weathered & old but that's what you want when you go to the beach! The big surprise here is the food! It's outstanding and nothing is served on paper plates!! We had the Forbidden Voodoo Rice, Monk Fish Tika Masala, Blackened Fish MonTacos, Corn Bread & Basque Burnt Cheesecake for dessert. All were beautifully prepared & delicious!! The kitchen staff are obviously very skilled!! The cocktails were great as well! Our server was spot on from start to finish despite the fact the the restaurant was packed! One gripe: they had live entertainment- a very talented young lady but sadly, she could barely be heard because of the poor sound system!! This was our first visit and we will surely be back!!

I was very disappointed with the drinks and food on 05.24.23. The classic and spicy margarita were very bitter. Both the entrees were bland and The "whole fish" served butterflied was poorly deboned. I contacted the restaurant via email regarding my experience and received an email back which can be interpreted as "Thanks for the feedback, Sorry but we're not sorry, This is on you". The ambiance is nice and service was good, overall had higher hopes for this restaurant.

A hidden gem that exceeded my expectations! Drinks are exceptional, creative cocktails and a great wine selection. Live music EVERY NIGHT! The appetizers are the stars, got the Fritto Misto & Mezze. But the highlight was their unique take on Swordfish Milanese--it was different but delicious! The cozy ambiance and friendly staff made the experience even more enjoyable. A must-visit for food and drink enthusiasts in the area.

We went to this restaurant based upon reviews on Yelp. Decor was nice and live music was a plus. Unfortunately the service was poor and the food was just OK. Two in our party. Enjoyed our meals. And two did not. In addition, one person was told two times that they were out of the food they ordered. Medium price and portions were decent size.

Lots to love about Little Fish! The food is absolutely delicious, fresh and different from other seafood restaurants on the North Fork. My favorite are the tuna taquitos and ribs, and their Caesar salad is the best I've ever had. The atmosphere is awesome - amazing live music, super cool decor and really fun bar scene. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. I've been coming to the North Fork for 30 years and I'm so excited to have a fun, laid back new restaurant with really great food. The transformation of the space is truly remarkable. I can't wait for warm weather and Kenny's sunsets followed by drinks and dinner at Little Fish!

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming....and the staff is just awesome. We had an amazing time and the food was fantastic....Gene Casey was playing in the bar area and the music was such a nice complement to such a warm atmosphere. Our waitress Sam was so helpful and patient. Her knowledge of all of the dishes and wine was much appreciated. Her personal attention to every aspect of our visit was just awesome. We had the pleasure of spending few minutes with Arden, the owner.... that put such a personal touch on our visit because he really spoke tongue and listened.....we are sad that they will close for the winter after the New Year, but we are looking forward to an awesome meal at the end of March beginning of April....

I went to Little Fish this past Friday evening and sat at the bar for dinner. The cocktails were delicious and the service was excellent. I ordered the mussels and my friend ordered the burger- both were excellent! I would order my mussels again- fresh local ingredients- very flavorful! The man next to me ordered the swordfish Milanese and it looked awesome- he confirmed he was very pleased with his order. Overall very Friendly welcoming staff, fun atmosphere- live music was an added bonus. I'm excited to go back this summer and try some more items on the menu.
