South Edison

"This lively seafood restaurant is two blocks away from the ocean and consistently puts out some of the best food in the area. The menu is loaded with exciting seafood, but there are also plenty of other land-dwelling animals to eat, too, like pork chop parm and a brisket patty smashburger. The great wine list, solid local beer selection, and Bloody Mary oyster shooters also keep us coming back." - melissa kravitz hoeffner, team infatuation

"Birthdays, relatively tame bachelorette parties, families out on the town—you’ll find them all at South Edison on a given Saturday night. This is a lively restaurant with the benefit of being right in the center of Montauk. If your plan is to head to Memory Motel, The Point, The Gig Shack, or some other relative sh*tshow in town, but would like to have a civilized meal beforehand, do it here. The spicy oyster shooters are fun, if you can handle swallowing a raw bivalve soaking in habanero vodka, or just skip to the crisp panko-coated fried olives stuffed with goat cheese, crispy oyster tacos, and pork chop parm." - melissa kravitz hoeffner, team infatuation

"The Edison Bungalow, a five-bedroom New England Shaker-style house designed by Robert McKinley, is two blocks from the beach. The house features a moody earth-meets-sea color scheme with sienna backsplashes, raw umber accents, pine wood floors, and a coastal green kitchen floor. The couple took inspiration from famed photographer Peter Beard and Jacques Cousteau. The house is stocked with carefully chosen everyday items providing both aesthetic value and utility, such as a custom-made coffee table and Heath Ceramics bowls." - Elise Taylor
