    The food at Sundays on the Bay is solid -- fresh and well-prepared, with a menu that delivers exactly what you'd expect from a waterside spot. Unfortunately, the service and management leave much to be desired. Staff were noticeably unfriendly, and the wait for service was unreasonably long, even though there were plenty of empty tables available outside. Despite the space, the host refused to seat us there, which felt more like poor management than policy. The vibe is very local, which can be charming if you're familiar with the scene, but don't expect much in the way of hospitality. Could be worth a visit for the food and view -- just don't come hungry or in a rush.

    Flavorless oysters and New England clam chowder that tastes like Progresso
    Danielle P.

    This was meh. We came here for their weekly twin lobster special (two twin lobsters with corn and a potato for $55). We were able to walk in with no reservation on a Monday night and were quickly seated. After a round of drinks, we started with a few appetizers - New England Clam Chowder (because I'm on a mission to sample them all), some oysters on the half shell and baked clams. The oysters had no flavor and lacked that "fresh out of the water" salinity, the New England Clam Chowder tasted like someone threw a bunch of extra herbs into a can of Progresso and the baked clams were bland and overdone. Despite all of this I was still hopeful that my steamed lobster would be fine...how bad can you mess up lobster, right? I don't know where they get these lobsters from that they're this cheap, but they were also a bit rubbery but still edible, so I drowned mine with butter and made the best of it. The seafood stuffing I added on for $8 was overdone and burnt. Honestly, the best part of this meal was the corn. The ambiance here is probably what draws folks in since it's right on the water, but there's nothing else redeeming about this place. I'd skip it.

    What's left of the delicious local clams in white wine garlic sauce with accompanying baguette
    Tom F.

    Returned to Sundays after several seasonal visits the past couple of years only to be met with disappointment. We were met and greeted immediately and cheerfully and led to a deck table overlooking the marina. Excellent. We were introduced by our smiling, upbeat server Anna (who'd, coincidentally, served us last summer too!). We ordered the clams in garlic white wine sauce, 2 lobster specials (2 lobsters each with 1/2 ear of corn, baked potato and drawn butter) and a bottle of Sancerre to enjoy with it all. I had a perfect spicy Bloody Mary to start off with too! The clams arrived in quick fashion with a small warm baguette. I highly recommend this dish! The clams were each 1/2 dollar sized, cooked perfectly and nestled in a wonderful wine & garlic sauce. Yum! The baguette was perfectly crusty outside and cushiony inside to soak up the clam bowl goodness. Then...the lobsters...served as we've seen in the past. Two steamed 1- 11/4 pound crustaceans with corn & potato side. However, the corn was pretty flavorless & unappealing and all 4 lobsters, sadly & unexpectedly, noticeably overcooked. A shame. Additionally the lobster special price had risen by 10% from $50/pp to $55/pp. A disappointing evening after all. Doesn't mean we won't write it off as an off night and try again...but stirred the "lobster is pretty ubiquitous around here & I'm well qualified to buy it & cook it myself served with better corn & save a lot on the wine" conversation. My prior visits have been 10s and Anna is terrific, so we'll likely return...but the "ubiquitous lobster" talk is gaining traction.

    Wonderful place! The location was perfect (weather helped out), service was prompt and friendly, and the food was amazing. All around great! Started off with the Oysters (cooked), got the Fish Tacos...Fish Sandwich and Lobster Roll. Lobster Roll was mine and delicious! Totally worth the price. The view helped as well, and we were in and out pretty quickly. Highly recommend stopping by if in the area.

    Great place. Hosted my sisters night before/rehearsal party and it went well. We needed additional seating and the staff made that happen in a timely fashion. Briana was good to work with in coordinating the details ahead of time.

    Steamed 2lb Lobster
    Jaime E.

    We came on a Saturday night, party of 7. Make a reservation! Julia was lovely. We sat inside which was fine. A lot of windows and there was a pleasant breeze. No a/c. We came specifically for steamed lobster and we weren't disappointed. I really liked the coleslaw too (sweet with a little vinegar). The staff was friendly. Good place for families and friends.

    Twin lobster special, one with a side of fries and one with a house salad. Always a great sunset overlooking the boat dock!

    8/8/23 Twin lobsters were on our mind this evening. We ordered one each of our lobsters stuffed with their amazing stuffing. Our server Ryane was very attentive, We opted to bring a few claws and a tail home to make lobster salad tomorrow, I'm sure it will be wonderfully delicious. Sundays on the bay is always a lovely setting and a special treat.

    This was a memorial tribute and this is what we experienced!

    Omg sundays in Hamptons Bays! Steer clear! We just went for a memorial and the bill was 2k, yes 2k! The waitress apparently said we were complaining about service when we were oblivious to this information. Anyway,the service was awful, steak charred, no utensils, delayed drinks etc and the restaurant was 75% empty! So no escape goat there. Then they tried to rush us to pay after they served us cake with no coffee orders. We then requested coffees and they took forever and all cakes were eaten so we cancelled. We then reviewed the bill which was full of errors so had to be rerun. In the interim, the pregnant employee named Bree told my brother to get the fk out of the restaurant. Yup you read that right. I was in the car and went back in to speak to the manager ( there is none over an estate dispute so employees can do what they want and they know it bc they have job security). I went to speak to the pregnant employee who was at the front and she said you can leave or I'm calling the cops. I urged her to do so! The cops came and apologized for this behavior especially as my sister wept over her late husband! Lisa a staff member perfusively applogized and attempted to diffuse the whole situation. Just steer clear this place is drama. The best part was the waitress who started all of this still walked away with a $400.00 tip! Love it

    Location was next to water which is beautiful. The waitresses were nice and we were quickly seated on a high table which can be shared with strangers. We didn't mind because we had a great view of the water for the sunset. Food was good but we had originally decided it order a appetizers to share among 3. We got quite a few things, the kale salad, the crab dip, crab cakes, tuna wontons and mussels in wine. We were surprised to see how little comes with the crab cakes and tuna wontons. The crab dip is really delicious but be aware there is a lot of cheese. Only only negative review would be that since i gave up pork we originally did not know that the award winning clam chowder had bacon in it! It's not noted in the menu which i think definitely should! The scallops entree also has chorizo on it and the baked clams also had bacon in it.

    Great food! Beautiful interior makeover! The 1 1/4 twin lobster special was cooked to perfection. Great kale salad. My friends ordered the crab pasta, salmon, and the Bronzino. They all love their dishes! I was Server was very attentive and informative on all the dishes.

Unfortunately, the food is no longer seafood-centric and overall not nearly as good. Music was loud and the service was very lacking. Honestly, other than the frozen tasting mussels, nothing was necessarily bad. The smoky Chicken Quesadilla and Ahi Tuna Street Bowl were even decent. However, majority of everything else was just average at best and not memorable. To top it off, the prices are relatively high for what we received and the service was subpar. No one came to pour us water or take an order after we sat down for 20 minutes. Then a few different servers came by with our food. No refills on our water or check on our status. Next time we saw our server was when she came by to give us the check. Didn't even asked if we wanted dessert. Oh well, we will not be back.

I was game and called the restaurant regarding their happy hour times and was told by the hostess that they do not have a happy hour per se but their bar menu is always available and of course there is lunch and dinner and they always have live music. It is a little off the beaten path and is located in an enclave of restaurants on the water i n Hampton Bays. We walked in and were greeted by the hostess. It is an impressive sized space divided into two sections, a bar area where the live music was playing with seating at the bar and some booth seating and opposite this a larger circular dining room with tables for four and six people overlooking the water. We were seated and menus and a wine list was provided. Our waiter was Joseph Z. He was pleasant,the accommodating and efficient. Our drink orders were taken-a Corona beer for my brother and I ordered a Negroni. We gave our meal orders at the same time. My brother ordered the seafood pasta with a side of French fries-[not shoestring-these looked hand cut] and I ordered the sea scallops and a side of asparagus. The meals arrived shortly and we dug in. My brother enjoyed his food [the French fries looked very appealing] My substantally sized scallops were delicious and cooked perfectly. They were sitting on a bed of mashed potatoes, diced peppers and some greens. The asparagus were cooked well, crisp and very tasty. After our meal and some time to digest, we looked at the dessert menu. My brother opted for the tirami su and I was initially looking at the creme brulee but I had had this recently at another restaurant and then decided on the mixed berry crumble. After taking one bite of the mixed berry crumble, I new it I made the right choice. The dessert came out hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and alongside, a small vat of whipped cream and one of additional mixed berries. This dessert was outstanding. To cap this experience, I ordered a cup of espresso. In summary, the restaurant is clean and well maintained [the restroom as well] The staff is polite and the service is quick. We were there on Mother's Day weekend [Friday] and it is not an inexpensive meal, comparable to what I would have paid for a similar meal in New York City. However, it was well worth the money. It was an experience. I would strongly recommend and I hope to return soon.

We also had fried calamari which was solid. For mains, I had the veal Milanese which was perfectly cooked. Crispy, topped with fresh tomatoes and arugula plus shaved parmesan. My brother had the lobster pasta which I tried and was out of this world. The shitake mushrooms in this dish really add a depth of flavor you don't normally find in a lobster pasta.
