    New England Clam Chowdah!
    Holly M.

    This is not a place you go for the ambience, but you go there for great seafood! The Dock House is quite small, with only a few tables inside and outside. But it's on the dock where all the massive yachts park and there are plenty of benches on which to sit and eat. We got the lobster rolls, which were brimming with meat! Hardly any mayonnaise, just really great seafood. The New England Clam Chowder is excellent and creamy, not runny like some places. The shrimp cocktail is also good. You can't beat a place that serves seafood right from its own waters! You can also buy fresh fish to cook at home.

    Delicious lobster roll that hit the spot!! They don't do warm, only pre-mixed cold. And it's pricey but good seafood always is.

    Checking out the Long Island scene, we stopped at the Long Wharf... boats everywhere! We wanted to try a lobster roll and New England clam chowder, so went to the Dock House, ordered both and wow, so good! The lobster roll was packed with lobster, and very little filler, with the perfect amount of mayo! And the clam chowder did not disappoint! Definitely recommend stopping in!

    Not a fan of the marinated grilled scallops.

    So promising based on the reviews and the big fresh-looking menu, but underwhelming in my experience. Clam chowder - watery and not a ton of flavor. Everyone from miles around has clam chowder and a 'special' recipe. IMO, it's not in evidence here. Not enough clams, and not enough body to the soup. Not sure how they were 'Voted Best'. The scallops sounded good in reviews. When I asked about them at Dock House, they mentioned the fried version, which is battered and fried. It ever there way to hide the flavor of scallops, I'd think that would be it. Instead, the Grilled Marinated Sea Scallops seemed a better fit. I ordered that but was disappointed. The scallops were a bit overcooked, for one thing. The marinade was like spicy brown sauce, sitting on top of the scallops, which themselves sat on a baguette. If you look at the menu online, it mentions the baguette very clearly. For the record, it is listed inside on their big menu, if not as prominently. I never touched the baguette as it struck me as hard to taste the scallops. The waffle fries are good, a bit greasy and have an engaging salty flavor. Was this dish horrible? No. Can I recommend? No. It's a charming place inside. Nice little view of the harbor, if you sit by the window. They're closed a couple days of the week. Would I ever try them again? Sure. But I'm not in a rush.

    Cold Lobster Roll-- be sure to squeeze some lemon juice on it for a flavor boost
    Gail B.

    I came to The Dock House to see if the lobster roll here is as good as everybody says it is. The lobster roll was packed with fresh lobster and was scrumptious, especially because I squeezed some fresh lemon juice from a lemon wedge that came on the side. Lemons and lobster are a winning combination because they have an affinity for one another. One brings out the flavor of the other. The lobster roll is served on a grilled hot dog potato bun. I did not care for the bun because the potato bread poorly counteracted the flavor of the lobster. I would have preferred a toasted New England-style (split top) hot dog bun. So I ate just the lobster salad. The lobster roll costs $35.79, but they added a "chkot fee" of $1.25 for paying with a debit or credit card. So my bill came out to $37.04. Thom explained that the surcharge "covers the transactions". I also purchased some corn mango salad. That costs $11.50 per pound, and it was made with fresh local corn and tropical mangoes. It was refreshing, and I liked it a lot. There are many spaces for vehicles to park on the wharf. They are in company with yachts that dock on the marina surrounding The Dock House. I can see how the popular seafood shack got its name. I highly recommend that foodies stop by here. The menu has plenty else to offer besides lobster rolls: fish tacos, steamers, fried calamari, chowder and more. Long-time Hampton residents tell me that they come to The Dock House for "the best lobster roll this side of Maine". Robin, the manager, told me that shipments of live freshly-caught lobster are delivered each week from Maine. Check out The Dock House's website, dockhouseny.com. They are open daily from May to October. I give it four stars because of the unnecessary transaction fee.

    Good golly -- this lobster roll was everything I imagined it would be. Incredible fresh and a ton of meat inside, you'll be dreaming about it for days. Ooo, don't forget to order a side of clam chowder as well! You won't regret it! The young lady working the register was a sweetheart as well. Great customer service, laid back atmosphere and fabulous seafood, be sure to check them out!

    Lobster Roll!
    Valerie G.

    Visited The Dock House this past weekend for perfection on a compostable plate! My Lobster Roll was delicious, perfectly everything with a squeeze of lemon. I removed the chips, as I had no interest in them. 10/10! The service was quick and friendly. Don't look to languish too long, as there are only two small tables and a bar inside for sitting and eating. Everything was excellent!

    Quaint spot on Sag Harbors wharf, doesn't look like much from the outside but their food is great! This is a must try for your summer spots as it is now closed for the season. Quality seafood done right, the crab cakes were moist and some of the best I've ever had. The grilled tuna was a generous portion and cooked to perfect temperature. The menu is huge and has something for every seafood lover but if you don't like seafood don't worry they have a burger and even a beyond burger for our non-meat eaters! Check it out and don't forget to grab a South Fork Blondid for dessert.

    Came here for lunch. Super friendly staff. Great view. Small restaurant with a little seating inside. We order a lobster roll with was $35. It was okay. The soft shell crab was my favorite. It was so meaty! Their waffle fries taste great as well. The fried baby scallops was perfect. We also ordered a kids chicken fingers and the was okay. They have tons of fries but like two small pieces of chicken. For the price i wish the pieces of chicken was a tad bigger.

    3.5 stars, rounding up to 4 because the staff was very sweet and the restaurant is on the harbor with beautiful sunset views. Would recommend the lobster roll ($35), which was packed with lobster and had celery and red onions for a nice crunch and texture. The clam chowder was also quite good and had a lot of fresh seafood. I would not recommend the fish tacos, which were around $20 for 2 tacos with a small piece of fried fish - dry and cannot compare to fish tacos in NYC.. the seafood platters were also just okay, pretty average fried food and overpriced for what it is.

    lobster roll :)

    Food was amazing, great place to try top-notch seafood. The service was quick and friendly, they answered the couple questions I had about the menu and sent me in the direction of the lobster roll and it was amazing!! 100% worth the price, your getting good quality seafood, and you can tell!! Cute place located right on the water with welcoming staff, a great place to visit if you're in the area!!

    Hands down the best lobster roll in all of the Hamptons. They have the meat to bun ratio done perfectly

    Amazing lobster rolls, probably the best I've ever had! Perfect ratio of lobster and mayo and will come back for sure! I flew all the way from South Korea just for these lobster rolls

The outside looks like a little dated and small. But as other reviewers have said, the interior is very nice and spacious! We were lucky to get a window table although it was foggy so we could not see a lot of the water; just the parking lot and dock. But still better than nothing. I forgot to take pictures of the apps but we shared multiple orders of the burata, fritto misto and salmon tartare (yes, you read that right). All were good and I did enjoy the tartare. For entrees, I got the fish and chips, Cathie got the bouillabaisse, friends got the chicken Milanese special (what a deal!!), Scottish salmon with ramen, burgers, and another bouillabaisse. We all loved our choices but highlights were definitely the chicken Milanese dinner special (because even with slight up charges for certain items, it is an amazing deal!!); and the bouillabaisse. As some other reviewers have said, this is a MUST ORDER! The broth is not too tomato forward but instead is very flavorful with other spices, not just saffron, and the same food is generous and prepared so well! I will come back just for this! My fish and chips were good, even the Cole slaw although I prefer meatier French fries (although these were still good, nice and crispy).

The Bouillasse is a favorite, with clams, muscles, fish, shrimp and lobster in an an unbelievable pinkish-red stew flavored with lovely saffron. I was slightly disappointed the lobster didn't budge easily out of the shell. Nevertheless, the Bouillasse still remains a favorite. Without a doubt, I'll be back for more.
