The 29 Best Restaurants In The Hamptons - New York - The Infatuation

"There have been several high-end sushi pop-ups in the Hamptons over the years, but for a more casual, daily situation, Sen is Sag Harbor’s go-to. We once read that Eric Ripert (chef of Le Bernardin) likes to come here, which is a good sign about the quality of fish. Waits can be long at peak times, but they’ve added a nice garden in the back so there's a little more space." - melissa kravitz hoeffner

How Inflation Is Impacting Upscale Restaurants | Bon Appétit

"At the Sag Harbor Japanese restaurant, the co-owner negotiates directly with purveyors to control costs and adjusts menu prices responsively — lowering prices when wholesale lobster costs fall, while observing that some competitors kept prices high." - ByBeth Landman

Less than mediocre sushi restaurant…very poorly made rolls. It reminded me of a sushi rolling party I went to…you made sushi rolls for the very first time, and this would be it. The food that should have been cold was warm, and vice versa. But at least it was REALLY expensive for what we got. $100+ for 3 rolls and a beer. Suggestion, send the sushi chefs out to a good Japanese restaurant, order a bunch of stuff and take good notes. You’ve got a great location in an amazing town, you’re charging premium prices, you have a great opportunity to do better.

the food was awesome— we came in 20 minutes before closing and they were super accommodating.

Decent sushi place. Can’t say it was the best sushi I’ve ever had, but it’s not a bad choice if you’re craving sushi. Service was pretty good! It seems like it’s the only good sushi place in the Hamptons area

Food was fresh. But they were out of their specialty sushi. The next time we called 3 times just to be sure they had the sushi we were looking for, only to find out when we ordered that they did not have it. When we told the server that we had called 3 times to check, she went to check and came back to yell us that she was sorry for the misunderstanding. That was ridiculous and waste of time.

Absolutely phenomenal! Dining at Sen was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The food was nothing short of spectacular, each dish beautifully plated, bursting with flavor, and clearly crafted with the utmost attention to detail. From the delicate sushi to the richly flavored ramen, every bite was a masterclass in Japanese cuisine. But what truly set Sen apart was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for. Attentive without being intrusive, they anticipated our needs and made thoughtful recommendations that elevated our meal even further. It’s rare to find a place where both the culinary execution and hospitality are equally top-tier. Whether you’re a seasoned sushi lover or just discovering Japanese food, Sen is a must-visit. We’ll be back soon and bringing friends!

Came here for lunch with the family. The staff were courteous and attentive. We had a variety of dishes including sushi , ramen, and a tofu dish. All were great. We particularly enjoyed the spicy edamame. Definitely will be back when we’re in the area.

The sashimi was good if a bit overpriced, great squid and scallop, although they were out of the citrus bream that I was interested in. Service was good as restaurant was mostly empty. EDIT: I returned today and called in to make sure of the citrus bream being there. When I got there, though, after I ordered I was told that there was a miscommunication and that it wasn’t available.

Atmosphere is cute but as 3 women who were celebrating a birthday we were greeted by a very kind host, i cannot say the same for the waitress. She was extremely irritated from the beginning. Even providing the wifi password was a chore for her. She never checked on us after we got our food to see if things were okay but we had to call her over to send one dish back. The waitress either didnt want to be there or didnt want to serve us! When we asked for the manager, she laughed at us. The manager was defensive about her behavior..not friendly not welcoming. For service, this was a pretty bad experience. We wanted a better experience because this place came highly recommended. We paid the small bill and went down the block to continue our evening and had such great service at Page at 63.

Came here on a weekend getaway to Sag Harbor. They don't reservations but we were sat right away. The ambiance is classy/casual. The sushi was nothing outstanding, but it was good. We started with the crunch rice tuna (crispy rice). The rice was a bit chewy and hard to eat. Rolls: Torched salmon: I love torched rolls, and their torched salmon roll lived up to my expectation. Next time, however, I would ask for it without the chili threads because it made the roll a bit hard to eat and was stringy. Tiger Roll: This roll was light, and very flavorful. It comes wrapped in a green soy paper instead of rice. Tuna Avocado: You can't go wrong with this classic. Overall, the service was good and the staff were friendly. However, for good sushi, I've definitely had better places.

Sen is a modern Japanese restaurant in downtown Sag Harbor. The restaurant has a lot of seating and also has a sushi bar if you want to sit in front of the sushi chef and order there. The restaurant was packed the whole time we were there and it was a loud atmosphere. The food didn't take too long to come out and we tried some great appetizers and sushi rolls. We had the seaweed salad and Crispy Rice Tuna bites to start. Both were amazing and my girlfriend said it was the best crispy rice tuna she has had! For sushi rolls we tried the Torched Salmon, Tuna Hama, and Garuda. The Garuda was my favorite, and had lightly fried tempura outside. The Tuna Hama paired spicy tuna on top and tender yellowtail together which was delicious as well. This was a great visit and the food, service and atmosphere were all delightful.

LOVE THIS PLACE. It was packed you can tell it's a local spot with great vibes. We were seated immediately which was a plus. The food came out so fast and everything we had was fresh and amazing. Honestly one of my fav place in the Hamptons and will definitely become routine. Definitely order the pork bao, crispy rice, miyako roll!! Our waiter was so sweet and kept checking in on us. This is a must in sag harbor

In a word Meh. Much prefer my local sushi sports in Port Washington and Syosset. Very expensive for what it was. Salmon with veggies underwhelming, Sent back back bec veggies were steamed and tasteless. No soup or side salad wirh Asian dressing with entree as I'm used to. Hubby liked his sushi but fish pieces were tiny. Never in Sag Harbor so this is a one and done. The places I frequent get 5 stars not 3 like Sen.

Edamame was soggy and tasted like it was reheated. Tuna appetizer was good but way overpriced for a single piece of sashimi sliced into five paper thin pieces and topped with a pepper. Tuna roll was an awful slurry. Huge lack of cocktail options. The sushi at Stop and Shop is literally better than this place.

Is this the greatest sushi I've ever tasted ? No. But it's very nice sushi. It's fine. It's good. But I tell you, what's really great about this place is the location, the decor, the lighting, and the very lovely, attentive staff. It's a good solid enjoyable restaurant experience. You will not regret it. It can be very romantic. Or it can be a great for parties of 4 or 6. Or hell, throw your next bday there and take the whole place over. Enjoy.

Really nice ambiance, we ate in the backyard garden and Gustavo was very patient and polite with us. He answered all of our questions and accommodated the vegans at our table. He was great. The food was great! The wait time was a bit much, but it's Sag Harbor on a Saturday, what do you expect? My sister's vegan roll was great, and the chicken karaage was great with the pickled ginger. I loved my ramen, it was super flavorful and excellent overall. I would eat here again for sure.

Melissa R.

Yelp
Nice staff; owner came to talk to us and was very friendly. Seated fairly quickly for a party of 7. The sushi wasn't the best sushi I've ever had, it was mediocre. The dumplings were also just ok. Tasted like they had been previously frozen and reheated. It's a super tight; closely seated restaurant. Lastly, it was really expensive which I guess they can justify because they are in The Hamptons.

Excellent sushi spot in the Hamptons with chill vibes. Can be a bit of a wait for a table but I was able to grab a seat at the bar solo and treat myself to several rolls and a cocktail.

My 2nd time here . And will Still go back here everyday if its not just pricey. But food is super fresh soooo good specially the sushi. Ambiance of course its loud normal but they have garden area a little less noise . Service good too. Pretty busy place service is pretty fast even tho its busy. Reviews here should be way better than 3 stars .

Love it. The Garuda roll is a must order, it's pretty unique to this place. The Lychee martini here is made from fresh pureed lychees so I recommend it! The crispy tuna is good, the ramen is good, the steamed buns are sooo good. The vibe hasn't changed in years and I love that. I'm not a fan of the back patio or the bit about your whole party needs to be there to get a table (someone is always parking the car) But overall we really like it here.

My girlfriend and I ate here on Saturday, 10/28/23. We both were very sick the following day all day long. I called today, the first manager said he would "ask the kitchen" and call me back, never did. I called back two hours later and spoke to a different manager who said they would refund the bill which was the least they could do. No apology, no explanation or anything, mostly just arguing with me. I got notification of a refund, they only refunded one dish, as opposed to the whole bill. Not really acceptable in my opinion. You trust that paying money for food will not get you sick and if it does, at the very least, you'll get an empathetic apology and full refund and an assurance that they will check their food to make sure nobody else gets sick and that they're doing their best to never have something like this happen again. That was NOT my experience. Eat here at your own risk.

My wife and I got the salmon and the chicken fried rice appetizer. It was mediocre. I don't really think it was worth the price. Salmon was small for 32 dollars. Chicken has a weird taste in the fried rice. The chicken seems like it would go better with chicken salad. Super packed but nice seating. Service was nonexistent after ordering.

Great sake selection. Quick attentive service. All smiles. Don't miss out on their happy hour offerings. The yellowtail jalapeno appetizer was fresh and tasty. Nice place to take a break from the street crowd and have a drink at the bar.

The food was so fresh and delicious! Ask for Negib as your server! He was so sweet and really helped me. I have a gluten allergy and he helped me navigate the menu as well as recommend amazing gluten free options! The Miso salmon was to die for as well as the shishito peppers! My fiance got the Tofu! Thanks Negib for the romantic dinner!

Excellent vibe. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The Ramens are delicious, the shishito peppers is one of my favorite items. When ordering sushi; make sure to get the Orchid Roll. And check out the sake selection it's great. Hands down the best Japanese place in the Hamptons.

Been coming to this place for years because it's basically the only sushi spot in sag harbor. Both the food quality and the service has gone way downhill this summer - this newest hostess/waitress was the rudest restaurant staff person I have ever encountered (Sen owner if you are reading, this was 8/31/24, whoever was working the hostess stand around 2:30pm), she acted like we were doing her a disservice by eating there... that's pretty much the last straw, never eating there again

Food is good, however not sure if the price equates to it. The service feels personable and friendly, although definitely rushed. They certainly like to flip the tables - it's a hotspot in Sag Harbor. No reservation system walk-in only. Indoor aesthetic is great, tables outside feel a little too tight, but all in all would definitely recommend to others.

so yummy! fast and kind service! great ambiance- highly recommend! can't remember the names of the rolls but they were all amazing

I organized a public event in East Hampton last spring and needed a tasty and reasonably-priced venue--a tall order in the Sag area-- to feed the 20-or-so speakers and organizers of our event. Sen couldn't have been more accommodating. They put together a delicious and very reasonable Bento box menu plus appetizers for our group. Service was attentive. Couldn't have wished for more!

Giuseppe G.

Yelp
Ambiance in the restaurant is pretty good, but that's about all that was good. The servers kept bumping into each other spilling food and drinks. They would come to the table and climb over you to try and grab a straw wrapper. The food was less than mediocre at best. Dragon roll had no flavor. It was pretty much just rice. The double pork ramen was saltier than I am writing this review. Not worth going to at all.

Sen has a special place in my heart. The atmosphere is fun and electric. Our server Gustavo was the best. Very knowledgeable and helpful with Menu. The rolls were delicious, highly recommend the Mayako, Dakota, and you can't go wrong with the spicy edamame. Cocktails were great. Thank You Gustavo and the Sen Staff for a great experience .

This is hands down my favorite Japanese in the Hamptons. Sushi are unforgettable, staff is welcoming, the place has a very friendly and familiar vibe. The menu is great, anyone can find something great, even picky eaters. They also have a ton of vegan options, all delicious! Highly recommend. The only thing, prepare for long waits around dinner time on weekends as they don't take reservations.

This was a solid sushi restaurant in Sag Harbor. They do not take reservations, so you just have to go to their back patio and add your name to the waitlist. I went tonight and added my name at 7:15pm and was seated about an hour later. Currently they are doing outdoor seating. They turned their parking lot into a nice outdoor dining area with astroturf, picnic tables, and string lights. Our waiter, Anthony, was incredibly nice, patient, and helpful. We got canned sake that was delicious. For appetizers we had they edamame (really good and not overly salty at all) and the crispy tuna rice dish (it comes with four decently sized pieces, really tasty). We ordered a whole assortment of sushi for our main. They did a great job with the special rolls in terms of combining ingredients that go well together. The quality of the fish is good, but not Nakazawa level. The only thing that I did not like was their fatty tuna - it was a hard piece in it which wasn't pleasant. It did take quite a while for the food to come out, but since I was with a group of 5, we enjoyed spending the time hanging out so it wasn't a big deal.

As the picky eater of the friend group, I was so happy I was able to order chicken tempura. I loved the strawberry soda, too! The food came out very quick. A bit pricey, but a really nice atmosphere. Get here early around holidays or busy weekends, otherwise you'll be waiting a while, and they don't take reservations.

Yummy sushi ! One of the best in the area. Hate they don't take reservations and the wait can be long but the food ALWAYS hits the spot!

Pretty much terrible in every way. The food was either average or bad. The broccoli tempura was ok. Not sure who's idea was to add chicken mush to the chili chicken ramen and the chicken fried rice. Was really distasteful, awful texture. The rice was mushy too. Kinda pathetic. The sushi. Ohhh the sushi. You know you're in for a rough time when the smell of the tuna sushi hits you when it gets to within a foot of your face. I'd say the food was a 1/10. The service was a 3/10 - think Asian fusion catering hall. The ambience. Nope. The place is dirty. Worn out. Having a restaurant in the Hamptons appears to be a license to steal because there's no heart, no soul, and no decent chef anywhere to be found. We were surprised when we walked right in at 7pm on a Friday. Now we know. Make something at home.

Today my husband and I decided to give this place a try. The place looks nice - the END. My first clue to run should have been the service & how long it took to get our food. Finally it came -COLD, no taste and we just could not get thru the meal before I declared that I am DONE!! A man walked over to us and asked " is there anything he could do!" He didn't identify himself & we looked at one another & just said NO WE're Done! Long story short, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR $$$ on this place. Huge DISSAPOINTMENT& nasty belly ache RUNAngus Teriyaki

I don't go often, only when I want to treat me and my girl. Yes, it is expensive but if that's your measuring stick, don't go. If on the other hand you want delicious sushi, fine atmosphere and good service, give yourself a treat and remember, good food isn't cheap. Just sit inside away from the crowded line in the front.

Was really looking forward to trying Sen after hearing so much about it but it was very average. Went with my boyfriend at 6pm on a Sunday and by 6:15pm it was packed -- with a huge line of people waiting for a table and retrieving their takeout orders. We were able to get a table outside in front which was nice but we were right on top of the hostess stand, which made for a very distracting dinner as we were in the middle of the chaos resulting from such a large amount of people waiting. Food was average and it took a little while to get it (with 5 minutes between my boyfriend getting his food and me getting mine).

I've been coming to Sen since the pandemic and they are the best Sushi spot in the Hamptons. I come with my family pretty much every week during the summer to eat their delicious food. One of the servers Kevin is amazing. Every-time I come in he goes above and beyond to create a great experience for me and my fam. Looking forward to my next meal at Sen.

My mom and I have made it tradition to stop for dinner at Sen everytime we go to the Hamptons each summer. I spend all year craving what I refer to as "my favorite sushi roll", and man is it worth the wait! Sen is an excellent addition to the little strip of restraunts in Sag Harbor. We usually go late evening, around 8:00 on a weekend and at this hour, it's very busy and LOUD so this isn't the place for you if you're not up for a little noise. One appetizer is better than the next at Sen. The rolls are all made fresh and they're extremely tasty. A favorite appetizer of ours are the chicken lemongrass dumplings. They're great! There is also usually a bit of a wait as there aren't many dinner options in Sag Harbor and this is a great meal in high demand! It's absolutely worth the wait!

My boyfriend and I stopped by Sen for dinner and I was really surprised that there were so many sushi options on the menu! We ordered 3 rolls and a few appetizers and definitely left feeling full. We went later in the night (9:30) and they were still fairly packed so the food took awhile, but regardless everything was really tasty and the staff was kind.

Yelp
I keep hoping this will be better, but it never is and consistently disappoints. Very high prices for below average food. Places just want to overcharge because it's the hamptons, but you need to back it up with decent food. The dumplings remind me of the frozen ones we get at the grocery store. The tempura is always limp limp and soggy. The hamachi crudo, a common dish at Japanese restaurants, is very boring here. And the table are always sticky, what's that about?! Wash em better. They charge as if it's Zuma, but it's not at all close. The quality is just not there. Id suggest lowering your prices and being a more mid level restaurant. The food needs to match the pricing; otherwise your customers are always disappointed.

UGH I want this place to be good so bad. Every opportunity I give it, the worse it is. -I wish they'd give accurate wait times because whether it was take out or dine in, I was waiting so long for a drink and food. Most recently, they told me 45 min over the phone and then I waited 45 minutes after I checked in at the restaurant, waiting a total of 1.5 hours. -The ramen had a little too much sesame oil in it but was ok! However, pork belly and pork loin are not the same thing and it's not right to get a girl excited for pork belly to give a couple slices of pork loin. -I also understand that they can upcharge for sushi because we're out East and the Japanese options are more limited, however at least make the quality a little better.

Relative to East Hampton, this place is a gem. There is a severe lack of Japanese cuisine out East. It's not that I think there needs to be more cuisine options considering you sort of expect to eat overpriced seafood in this setting. Anyways, Sushi Sen has a very solid menu with solid special rolls at outlandish prices - but that's the Hamptons for you. Their spicy tuna is quite good and my girlfriend and I were ecstatic to have this place as an option during our little quarantine vacation. With the only other sushi options being Suki Zuki, Zokkon, and Yama-Q, this place easily takes the cake.
