    Oysters
    Nancy C.

    Wow! I ordered oysters and they were so good and came out with many sauces. And salsa- so delicious. The margaritas were really good too. The happy hour special they have going is a great deal & wonderful service as well.

    Rita Cantina: a perfect fusion of texture and taste We came in from a dreary, rainy night, and from the start we were seamlessly whooshed into not just a restaurant, but an authentic dining destination experience! The vibe is warm, cozy and authentically Mexican, the booth seats adorned with select rich fabrics- strains of Latino music to put you in the mood. The bar was hopping with people enjoying top shelf offerings such as the sublime collection of tequilas here--perhaps a traditional Margarita (or 2..or 3) The waitstaff here are nonstop attentive! ..and the food is inventive, magnificently plated and delicious. Make sure to try the fluke ceviche, also the local oysters which were plump, juicy and seasoned to perfection. The tuna tostadas pops with sushi grade sliced and frizzled onions atop. Every mouthful is fresh and delightful to the palate. The duck Carnitas features a generous half of a barbecued duck, sweet and sassy at the same time, each forkful a personal fiesta. Do not neglect or ignore the side of coleslaw offered with some of the mains. It partners perfectly with the chicken, adding texture and tang! Look out for distinguished Chef Eric Miller, as he oversees the dining room with obvious passion.

    My party enjoyed Rita Cantina! The food was good and the prices weren't the typical outrageous level that we see in the Hamptons. My favorite dishes were the tuna ceviche tostada and local harvest fluke taco. The tuna ceviche tostada was just large enough to share and was so fresh. The fluke taco had a very generous portion of fish. The menu said the fluke was flash fried, but otherwise I would've have known since it wasn't too crispy or oily, which I appreciated. The chipotle crema on top was a great compliment to the taco! The only item I didn't love was the street corn. It was boiled instead of grilled and the toppings were not evenly distributed, so it didn't have the same great taste I'm used to.

    Much more than a fence.  The most unique Mexican east of San Diego.

    Terrific break from South Fork Seafood. Great rooms, attentive service Wonderful spiced Margaritas, and creative Mexican dishes. GO!

    Definitely off the beaten path but worth the trip. Food was delicious, service was great and ambiance is fun. The only concern is parking, so make sure you visit on the earlier side.

    Cool spot with a Mexican/seafood twist. Try the clams and mussels. Great margaritas. Away from the east Hampton town madness.

    Delish food and great service. Maybe some citronella candles would be a nice addition to the outside dining area.

    First off this is truly a group effort by local inhabitants who demonstrate great pride in the…read moreservice and hospitality I was initially disappointed that when only had minutes to order once we arrived for our 8:30 reservation. The young man waiting on is explained that because it is a bed and breakfast they had restrictions on dining hours ok I understand As the night progresses and me on a sour mood.. these folks were able to turn it around with kindness , thoughtful care and exceptional food The salad with buratta was so fresh , very simple but elegant In presentation The Tuna Tatare an absolute powerhouse of clean flavor without a fishy aroma. The bomb dish ( in a good way) was the linguine with lobster. Wow!!! Many places here on EH destroy your wallet just by using the title " lobster" this perfectly seasoned dish is a light butter cream sauce was not at all heavy the lobster plentiful and frankly enough for two ppl All in all my only complaint is that they are only open Wednesday through Saturday but hey.. if it's that good it worth planning around their schedule. Go!

    What a find! Bar None is the only true wine bar / tapas restaurant in the area!. Very relaxed vibe,…read moreamazing selection of wine and cocktails, and the food was outstanding! Everything had flavor and the seafood was fresh and served ice cold. The hours of operation are limited (4-7pm, Mon. - Thurs.) but if you are in the area and would like to have a nice start to your evening, this is the perfect place to do it. Highly recommend!
