⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If we could give more than 5 stars, we absolutely would! We had an unforgettable evening at Snapper Inn, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible waiter, Zach F-R. Simply put—Zach was beyond amazing. He is, without a doubt, the best waiter we've ever had at ANY restaurant. Attentive, warm, professional, and genuinely kind—he made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. The timing of our meal was perfect—everything came out at just the right pace, allowing us to enjoy each course without feeling rushed. The wine was excellent and beautifully paired with our meals. And speaking of meals—Prime Rib Night was out of this world! Cooked to perfection, flavorful, and absolutely satisfying. We also want to recognize the wonderful hostess who welcomed us so warmly, and the busboy/assistant who was incredibly polite and attentive throughout the evening. Every member of the staff contributed to the exceptional service. To top it all off, we were treated to a gorgeous fireworks display during dinner, which made the night feel even more special. I highly recommend the Snapper Inn for a relaxing, delicious, and memorable dining experience. A heartfelt thank you to Zach and the entire team—you truly made our night one to remember!

A 5 star everything! We came here on a Thursday night for happy hour. We were at the outside bar which was hopping. The bar tender took care of us immediately, and we were able to sit at a table on the deck. Food was fresh and tasty. We plan on going back next Thursday. Definitely recommend going to the Snapper!

Went to the Snapper Inn for lunch on a Saturday fir the great river views and atmosphere. The burger and sweet potato fries were great but the corned beef ruben sandwich was very greasy. Would not recommend the ruben sandwich. Great overall experience even though the ruben sandwich was not good.

Waitstaff is young and inexperienced, they have very little knowledge about the menu and it’s hard to get their attention. We came for brunch the first time and the service was excellent, prix-fix menu so there was no reason to ask the staff questions. The second time we came for dinner the wait time was horrible, and the restaurant wasn’t nearly busy enough to justify it. 20 minutes to take our order and another 45 minutes for any apps to come out. Total amount of time spent at the restaurant 2.5 hours. Did not stay for the dessert which did not look promising. Food for the most part was overcooked and served in huge proportions. Stale bread served in the beginning. Lobster was overcooked both in the seafood pot and a la carte. The duck was ok but came with too little sauce. The fish was drowned in an overpowering sauce. The proportions are made for 3 people. Overall the ambiance does not match the food or service.

The view is stunning . The service was excellent . The sauerbraten was tender, tangy and tasty. Fried calamari were crispy and the tomato sauce was surprisingly good. The harvest salad was excellent . Overall we all enjoyed our dishes .

What a beautiful night on the water. Perfect temps for outdoor dining. Live music, perfect cocktails, great food and amazing company. My hubby and I had a stellar night. A note to owners, the waitress was amazing you are lucky to have her but she is over worked. It was stressful watching her do it all!! Hire more staff. It would help if you had the cc machines they bring to the tables. So much wasted time and leg work.

Wonderful place and truly amazing service. This is my new favorite restaurant! My friends James and Lisa from Blue Point turned me on to this INCREDIBLE spot. The chicken wontons are to die for and the oysters are so fresh, they taste like they just came out of the water. My salmon so delightful very fresh. All of this said the only thing better than this fantastic food was the service received. The man of the hour Jim at the front we so welcoming and helpful I felt like family. He treated us like so well and really knows how to make a person appreciate what service should be. My glass was never empty and my table was always clear of every plate I devoured. Dessert, on my God, the peanut butter explosion is insane, paired with a cappuccino there is no better ending to my night, unless I had 2 lol, Did I?? No but I did take one home to go and will eat in tomorrow although as delicious as it will be I am sure not as wonderful as enjoying it with my new friends at the Snapper inn. I will be back very soon and am planning a date with my friends later this week. Thank you Snapper Inn and Jim. xoxoxo

Amazing waterfront space, efficient service and outstanding food. Do not miss this place. We had an outdoor table with views of the Connetquot River with live entertainment in the background. All the food was delicious, the oysters Rockefeller had a bit too much tarragon for my liking, and the restaurant is handicapped accessible. This place is an old favorite and gets my highest recommendation.

Last month, we went for brunch. I ordered Oyster , kind of disappointed ,too small and not the same as I used to order. And ordered Poke Bowl 1/5 came with big pieces of all vegi no flavor! ....or because of luch time, lack of service??? But I still love this place , Steam Mussel and Bake Clam recommended....

1 start for the fried calamari, another star for the dessert and that's about it. My husband and I ate at The Snapper Inn last night. The view is gorgeous and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Seating outside is first come, first serve so I was happy we got a nice spot on the waiter. Our waitress was a little slow but I know she was dealing with another table issue. Still, we were ready to order and had to wait a bit. For our appetizer, we ate fried calamari. It was delicious and really set the bar for our meal (boy, I was wrong). I ordered the penne alla vodka and my husband ordered the lobster roll. My penne was absolutely HORRIBLE. It tasted extremely bland and not the penne alla vodka we know and love. Probably one of the worst pasta dishes I've ever had. Even for a seafood restaurant, my husband said his lobster roll wasn't that great. What's up with that? The chocolate torte we had for dessert was delicious, but that was obviously not what we came here for. I won't be coming back here.

Food was good. Service was good love the deals that they give very, very happy. Love the fact that they have half-price wine every Thursday. They have very good wines.

When my party of 4 got there they seated us at a very uncomfortable table that was meant for 2 people and I asked to move in which they complied. Service was spotty. Appetizer was shared with my husband. They did not bring dishes to share until we asked. The calamari I was greasy. My friend and I ordered lobster snd it was tough, it was overcooked. I told our server this . For what we paid, for our dinners it was not worth it. Everything we added to our lobster dinner was extra ie. Baked potatoes, etc. very disappointing evening. A positive was the ambiance was good and you could talk and carry on a conversation.

The food and the outdoor seating were terrific! However, we were there for an early dinner on Sunday, 8/4 but the entertainment (singer/guitar player) was awful! Screaming, not singing and so loud we couldn't have a conversation!

The service was absolutely horrible. From the start, the martinis we ordered were not dry but full of vermouth, we never got our water refilled, and our ice cream cobbler desert had no ice cream. The food was okay at best. The view is beautiful but it isn't enough to have me return to this restaurant.

Snapper Inn is dining done right. Everything is delicious, staff is pleasant and helpful. Dishes are clearly carefully thought out to make the best taste combination experiences. Prices are what you would expect for beautiful waterfront dining. I'm happy to pay them for the delicious food, great service, and prime location. The cocktails price of $17 each is the only part we couldn't justify. We love when we get gift cards here!

Food was great and snapper inn is such a staple. I have been frequenting this spot since I was a baby but admittedly it's been a while. This time around my visit fell within Long Island restaurant week. Sauerbraten stood out to me, snapper inn sauerbraten is very well known. I understand it was restaurant week $42/3 course prixe fixe menu, however the portion size was disappointing. Also just a reminder I did not make a reservation for a Tuesday night at 5:30 and we had to wait. I was very surprised so early on a Tuesday - it may have been due to restaurant week or just a normal occasion I'm not sure but make a ressy or come early

We went to the Snapper Inn for Halloween. It was restaurant week and we had a great time. We enjoyed it so much we decided to eat here for Thanksgiving. This was our first time going out to eat for a holiday. Well, what could go wrong went wrong. They didn't have our reservation. Then we waited a half hour before we were given the opportunity to order a drink. It was a half hour wait to receive that drink. Then we waited an hour! One whole hour for the salad. And yet again, it was almost an hour before we got the entrée. I had ordered the prime rib by the time I received it - It was a hockey puck. Burnt to its core completely uneditable hockey puck. This was the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant ever. I figured lightning couldn't strike twice. We went to Stella's for Christmas Eve and had a similar experience. We are never going out to eat on a holiday ever again. My deepest apologies to my family for putting them through that twice.

https://photos.app.goo.gl/gB2QPSD8TF9d4Cdh9 Terrific spot. We enjoyed both bars and a terrific sit-down dinner. The prime rib end cut my friend had was delicious, and my lobster roll was very good. I have to say i prefer chilled then hot with butter oll over, but I enjoyed it alot. Great video of the storm attached as we left the outside bar area. Pics attached.

Made 5 pm reservations on a Sunday. Asked for outside and was told it's first come first serve. Ok. We got there sand said it would be an hour so we sat inside. Saw others being seated outside after us. Our friends were outside and we went to say hello and chatted for a while and there were tables that were empty around them. Our server inside was good, no complaints there. Food was good. I can't count on getting the experience I want so it's gonna be a pass for dinner. You separated us from our friends unnecessarily and dampened my birthday dinner.

I went to a baby shower here and thought the restaurant was wonderful. The room was beautiful, overlooking the water and grounds. The food was excellent. The manager and staff were so accommodating, allowing us to drop off decorations the day before and when we arrived the next day they had already done many of the tasks that we were going to do the morning of the shower. During the event the staff was responsive to every request and detail. They provided special food for guests with allergies. The staff was available and responsive during the entire shower. I would highly recommend for both dinner and events.

Went for lunch today; first time there. Sat outside, nice view of water and marina. Wife was disappointed in lobster roll-was covered in a sauce she didn't expect or care for. I had shrimp and scallops scampi over angel hair. Was a decently tasty dish but served in a bowl swimming in creamy , soupy sauce with no garlic taste. Pleasant service and atmosphere but not compelled to return for the food.

We were looking for a beautiful place to bring our Mom for a special lunch and wow! Nailed it, Snapper Inn! The server was awesome, the food was amazing, and that view! We loved sitting outside under the tent and enjoying our lunch with a lovely breeze & swore to never bring Mom to those restaurants whose food might come quickly but their outdoor seating overlooks a highway. Mom appreciated the extra time we got to enjoy the view together while we waited for our food. It really went by quickly, but even so our really personable server mentioned that he hoped we didn't mind the wait for the incredibly fresh, home made meals (no restaurant depot short cuts here!!) since they usually had 3 chefs on weekends and today they had only one. Well, kudos to that chef! Way to get it done! We all can't wait to come back!

To get here, you have to drive down residential roads. Its tucked away back on the water. Had I not been invited here I would have never have known it existed. It is right on the water with boat docks. I am not sure in the summer if you can just pull your boat up here and enjoy lunch as I went in the winter. But certainly have your cameras ready for some beautiful photos on the water. I came here for a luncheon that was for 30 people for my Aunts 80th birthday. There was a pre made lunch menu with chicken, salmon and steak. I had the chicken franchaise. The wait staff was serving mimosas and a champagne punch (which were delicious) They had the room all set up when I got there. The food was served perfectly timed, the wait staff was fabulous and the food was delicious. I would definitely try this place on my own for lunch or dinner one day. Great food and scenery!

To the ownership of the Snapper Inn. I booked an outdoor party several months ago and I would like to go over all of my complaints! Wait? I do not have one single complaint. Not one. Since my first phone call to Josh and follow up calls with Kerry and Patty. Every annoying question was answered with a professionalism and kindness that you rarely ever see anymore. I showed up a day before by boat and both transient slips were taken. I went inside and ask if there is anything that could be done for me. Kerry and Karen jumped into action. They even called some to the residents to see if I can go in there slip. They both went out of there way to help me. I got a slip and I was extremely happy. The day of the party all you staff was there setting up and Kerry was out there assisting us. I was not expecting her to be up on chairs hanging Decorations with us. By the way, I also saw her doing the same for the next party after ours. Now let's talk about the other staff that assisted During the party. I'm sorry, but I will try to steal Taylor from you. What an employee! She was amazing. She worked hard; she worked smart, and most of all she was so friendly and happy. She made the experience there even more enjoyable. She was also great With my grandchildren. Please let her know how much we appreciate her. Jillian, Kyle, and Ricky (I hope I didn't forget anyone) Thank you, Thank you! Every one of you worked so hard, and I can tell that you all cared. Today it is very to find staff and even harder to find a team that is experienced and willing to go the extra mile like all of you. Lastly I need to say the food was delishish, OMG, the paella was over the top. Has food ran low it was immediately,y replaced. The views were absolutely amazing. Every one of my guests has not stopped talking about the views and atmosphere. Simply put it was a perfect 10-star event. Thank you once more and we can't wait to come back again. The Corrado's.

This is one of those rare long standing family own business that has continued to thrive through many generations. The Snapper Inn began as a fish stand in 1929 located on the shores of the Connetquot River. The restaurant is situated perfectly with a beautiful back-drop of the river and with many boat slips along the restaurant bank. I have been to this restaurant for weddings, and birthday celebrations often. We were enjoying an evening with friends we had not seen for a long time due to the pandemic crisis. Our service, meals and surrounding beauty was just what we ordered; a wonderful dining experience.

I went with old friends for the Pre Fix Lunch during restaurant Week. I am gluten free and was unable to order any food off the Pre Fix Menu except the soup. I was forced to order from the main menu and even then, it was quite limiting. It is 2023, this restaurant has one if not no gluten free options. My friends were quite shocked at the menu. It is not a good restaurant for anybody who has food allergies. Service was good, and the waiter quite pleasant.

Ants on the table, leaf in the bread bowl and we were sitting inside. I got a burger. Was ok-ish. Gf got hot lobster roll which was dry and luke warm. Filet mignon tips appetizer was rubbery and very sweet. Overall not worth it.

We cannot find the words to express how spectacular our event at The Snapper Inn was. Besides fantastic food and an amazing view and vibe, the part of the experience that meant the most to us was the professional and sincere and genuine ....OUTSTANDING service that we received from Patty and Kerry and Josh and the list goes on and on to the bartenders and servers and people behind the scenes in the kitchen who were making everything happen seamlessly ....with smiling faces the entire time. WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. This is what lifetime memories are made of ! Thank you soooo much , we appreciate all of you and look forward to seeing you in the future.

It's a beautiful establishment on the water. We came here for my dad's birthday and the seafood is solid. However i will say it's not outstanding. It's good but it needed the condiments for flavor. I had fish n chips and the chips were just golden fries, not thick chips. Had to ask for the malt vinegar. The cocktails were good, service was good. It's a decent restaurant and the appetizers are good, had the little neck clams. I thought for the most part though the food was just...ok it's nothing I haven't eaten before at other seafood places like Popeii's Clam bar or even out East in Montauk. I definitely think the food needs more seasoning but overall it was pleasant for a Sunday evening.

Went here for New Year's Eve. They had a prix fixe meal. Everything was delicious. The place was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Didn't give it 5 stars because our waitress was overly interested in turning over the table. She took our dessert order while we ordered the rest of our meal. My meal was so rich I had would have changed my choice, but didn't have a chance to. I saw the waiter next to us not take that order until the end.

September 10, 2022. Over the last few years I've been so disappointed with so many restaurants not only for their prices that have skyrocketed. But mire so because they cannot find experienced staff. Many people think what kind of experience do you need to be a waiter, a waitress, Or any one of the many positions within a restaurant or venue. But don't be fooled by that, the experience will always shine through when you have a good server. So it's been real hit or miss with restaurants and venues. I booked my wife's 60th birthday party at the Snapper Inn. I sit here the day after the party and I have to honestly tell everyone of you that the snapper inn has really broken the streak of bad restaurants and dining that I've had for the last few years. I have not one complaint. From day one dealing with Josh, Peggy,

We had my daughter's bridal shower here on Saturday, March 5, 2022. The staff and Maitre'Ds, Kerry and Josh, went above and beyond to make our party perfect. The room was bright and comfortable and the food was spectacular. I would highly recommend The Snapper Inn for a party or a beautiful night out! Marlene Kantrow

Restaurant week review*** With terrible Service*** So I want to be able to give this place 5 stars but I just can't. The service was really bad, as I have seen on numerous reviews and even though management tried to recover for the waitress it wasn't enough. First off the place is very nice and situated on the water. We started off at the outside bar for a cocktail which was very nice and the highlight of the night. I would go back just to have happy hour outside. We got a drink and the oysters to split at the bar and both were delicious. We then went inside for our reservation and this is when the issues started. It took 18 minutes for our waitress to come over to us and this was only after I had complained. The management bought us a round of drinks which was nice, however, the service didn't improve. We got the gorgonzola mussels and calamari to start. The mussels were awesome and would definitely recommend. The calamari was just ok and slightly over fried. After this it took another 20 minutes for us to order our main dish. Which we got the fish tacos and brisket. Both were very good and would recommend. Especially the fish tacos! For dessert we got the cookies and milk which were just ok, they should also warn people there are nuts in them******. Our waitress then disappeared for the remainder of our stay and management had to come and bring us the check. Overall, not a terrible place if they get there house in order. The 3 stars reflect how nice the scenery was and how decent the food was. Service wise this place is one star at best, and if you look at my previous reviews I don't usually roast service.

It must be about 3 years since we dined at this outstanding restaurant. I remember it being a truly satisfying experience and once again they did not disappoint. Walked in at 5:30 without reservations and was seated at the last table by the window. There are breathtaking views from all angles in the large dining area. My hubbie and I got to witness the last 1/2 hour of a wedding reception. How cool is that. The restaurant is tastefully decorated. Each table has fresh flowers and a candle. The tables are spacious and layed out nicely, we were comfortable. The air conditioner works so well that you may want to bring a sweater. We quickly received a basket of bread and crackers and refreshing water. Our server was lovely and quickly delivered the delicious cocktails we ordered. Only quality ingredients are used and you can tell but man are they expensive. $15 for a small margarita, that's just wrong. Be warned everything on the menu is pricey. For an appetizer we ordered the baked clams and split a Cesar salad. Both were tasty but the salad had a few bruised spots on the Roman lettuce. Seriously, we didn't complain but it shouldn't have left the kitchen looking like that. Dinners were served pipping hot, exactly the temperature we prefer. Thank you! I ordered the blackened Seafood Platter which came with a large patatoe and a variety of cut vegetables. This was heaven. Loved it so much that I would order again and again. I tried my husband's Halibut and although it was perfectly made I found it to be a tad bland. We also shared an extra side dish of sauted garlic spinach. Omg, so freakin delicious! We were asked if we'd like another basket of bread and accepted. Thank you for that. This experience was perfect. Excellent service, beautiful breathtaking views and an absolutely delicious meal. We observed yummy looking deserts passing by us but had to pass because we were 100% satisfied and full. Thank you for everything and we are looking forward to returning

Snapper is a great choice for a late Autumn outdoor lunch overlooking Great South Bay. There is ample seating inside their large heated tent as well as waterfront patio seating. Lots of choices on their lunch menu to satisfy everyone's taste, The Duck Empanada's were especially tasty as was the Potato Crusted Cod. And don't forget to try the Pumpkin Beer, especially refreshing. Lastly, thanks to our server Greg for the excellent service.

Honestly, I had never been here before and had heard such wonderful things but did not live up to expectations. The service was just okay. For the money the food was not elevated at all. I wouldn't waste my hard earned money here

Went here for restaurant week, two stars is generous. The place obviously has been around for a very long time and you can tell because it smells like an old antique shop. The service was terrible, our waitress took almost 20 minutes to come to our table and she said she didn't realize we were there, then other waiters came up to us with other tables food. It's very obvious they aren't well trained and look very young and confused. The food portions were very tiny (obviously they do a dead for restaurant week but shrink the portions to a laughable size) and the quality is terrible, it's like one step below old diner food. I got the snapper salad as my first course and it was literally maybe 6 leaves of lettuce and two or three of the smallest tomato's you've ever seen. Everything else was awful, not one person was happy with their meal. I think this place survives on its senior citizen clientele that's been going here for decades. Definitely won't be going back.

I have been so excited to try Snapper Inn every time we wanted to eat out we would stop by to see if we could get a table but always needed a reservation. Then COVID hit and everything was closed. As the world started to open up slowly Snapper Inn was on my list. I chose to have my birthday dinner here and boy was it a disappointment. Totally different menu from pre COVID to post COVID so I wasn't excited to eat anything and nothing on the menu looked appeasing at all. After studying the menu for 30 mins and having 3 baskets of bread I wanted to honestly tell my husband I wanted to go home. The menu definitely wasn't kid friendly but they did have chicken and fries if you asked for it. My husband order steak and a lobster tail and I ordered COD what a disappointment I could have made this myself better at home. I'm not what the rave is all about with this restaurant maybe it's the outdoor seating I can't figure it out cause it's definitely not the food. The customer service was okay and yes just okay. They have a lot of young kids working there, which I'm not mad at. Giving the young generation a chance to work and earn money I'm all for that. The bathroom was clean. The question is will I return. No, it was nice to have finally experience it but I will never return.

Went to the snapper inn and was taken back at first by appearance . It was be very run down. The staff were friendly. The food was high priced and not fresh . The swordfish tasted like they had just reheated it and not fresh at all. The serving size was small and scimpy.The fried calamari was ok. Watch out for the fried red hot peppers they drown it in. By time you pick out all the peppers you have a half a plate of calamari. We also had the fish sandwich which was ok. Very Mushy s Not fresh The dessert was a bust. Blueberry cob was a 1/16 of a slice and ready wip .The price was $ 135, high for the quality . I Should have stopped at long john silvers. I won't be back.

Second time enjoying another Fireside Wine dinner. The first course was very good. The wrapped shrimp with tomato tapenade over a crostini was very tasty. Followed by the fresh mozzarella topped with Bella mushroom over a bed of arugula and balsamic vinaigrette was a lovely addition. Believe it or not, this was my first time trying veal. I was told it has a similar taste to chicken. I am adventurous and always willing to try anything once. I won't give up on veal just yet, but honestly did not like they way it was prepared. Don't want to get into any specifics, but just didn't do it for me. The wine pairings were right on point for each dish. Looking forward to future wine dinners.

Ate at the Snappers Inn last night and was impressed. The ambiance was equal to the food and service. Had the Tile fish special. I must say I will be back before the summer is over. Ate outside. No bugs and was not rushed at all. We were eight and the service was as if we were two. One waitress and one helper had everything under control. Thank you for a great evening.

I think the food was very good. I was thinking some things should be a little bit better for a fancy restaurant. The ambience was really great although very windy that day LOL

The atmosphere was nice and the service was great. But the food was very average for the price ex 8.00 for a plain baked potato. and the chicken dish was undercooked.

Having been to Snapper so many times either for dinner and or drinks we were looking forward to a nice Friday night dinner. But wow we were disappointed! The drinks were not at the level I have had there before. In fact my Margaritas were very weak. One of our Grouper dinners arrived not fully cooked. The waiter seemed to be not ready for prime time! He hardly ever checked on us. For the price we paid - Not a good night! Atleast there was a nice view!

Absolutely excellent on allergy issues. We were here with a large group for a buffet, and they offered to get me a separate dish if I needed one. They also checked all the buffet items for me, and let me know what was safe. Even with me in my cut-rate Walmart finest! The place is gorgeous inside, and loved. You can always tell a restaurant that's loved. They have beautiful views of the boats outside and some incredible models as decor. Our dining area felt very open and light. The poached salmon was excellent, but the quartered potatoes with thyme were worth going back for thirds. Even for dessert. Yum!
