On our recent road trip to Montauk, we made our first progressive lunch stop at the Clam Bar. We shared an order of the Montauk Pearl Oysters (fresh and delicious), and Ron then had the Spicy Crab and Sweet Corn Chowder and I had the Manhattan Clam Chowder. Both of the soups were good but not outstanding. Our first waitress, Jennifer, was delightful, but her lunchtime replacement left a lot to be desired, unfortunately.

We called into Rowdy Hall on a Sunday afternoon, initially just for a drink. Dermot, the bartender, was excellent - really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. We asked to look at the menu, thinking we might call back later to eat. Dermot described all of the specials and explained that there would be a limited menu between 3.30 and 5pm, for the changeover between lunch and dinner. As it was already around 2.30, we decided to stay for lunch, after weâd finished our drinks. It all went downhill after that ...We chose a table and a server arrived to take a drinks order. We ordered a bottle of Pinot Noir (Dermot had kindly given us a taste of it at the bar). Our server asked a couple of times if we had any questions about the menu. He didnât at any point mention any of the specials. When we chose our meals, I asked for the shrimp sandwich special, which Dermot had said came with potato chips, fries or greens. I wasnât offered this choice by the server, he just said âIt comes with potato chips.â His colleague did come over later to ask if I wanted to change to a different side order, but it all sounded like it was too much trouble for them. My husband ordered a Croque Madame - ie a Croque Monsieur with a fried egg on top. The server asked how heâd like his egg fried. When it arrived there was no egg. At no point did anybody ask if everything was okay with our meal, so my husband had to wait until our server topped up our water glasses to point out that he hadnât had an egg and to ask him to make sure we werenât charged for it. My husband then heard the two servers talking about it and the female server saying âDoes he want the egg now, then?â She then walked past us, so my husband told her that he didnât want the egg. Her reply was indiscernible, but sounded like âMeh.â There was certainly no sign of any sort of apology from anybody for getting the order wrong.The food was good, but it felt as if we were imposing on them by choosing to eat just before the changeover period and everything was rushed. My husbandâs plate was whisked away as soon as heâd finished, but before I had, and then when Iâd finished my sandwich, my plate was snatched away, along with the remaining potato chips, which were in a separate bowl. The server didnât think to ask whether I was still eating them, and as heâd put his hand right over the top of them to take them away, I certainly wasnât going to ask him to put them back down. He also kept topping up our wine glasses as if he wanted to rush us through the bottle. When there was a bit left (maybe half a glass each) in the bottle, he looked at it and asked whether we thought we would finish it. We said yes, then when he came back, we asked why heâd asked the question and he said âWell if you canât finish it, I could put a cork in it for you. Or I could help you out with it.â It was a nice bottle of wine, which we wanted to savour during and after our meal, but he completely spoiled that experience for us.When we paid the bill, we scored out the gratuity line, to make it clear that we donât tip for poor service and bad attitude. We did, however, give Dermot a cash tip when we left, as he clearly deserved it.

This place is a old standby for everyone local. Always busy sometimes the service is annoying but that is everywhere. There are comfortable booths for four or six, a great bar and Amagansett village which sells itself. The French Onion Soup is good on a cold night.

We first called into Cittanuova for drinks at the bar after a disappointing experience with poor service in the Rowdy Hall. We liked the atmosphere and the service at the bar, so we went back for dinner the next day and again for drinks at the bar the day after. I loved their cocktail special of Empress 1908 gin and tonic. The food for dinner was very good - I chose Pasta Nero and asked if it could be prepared without garlic, which wasn't a problem. My husband chose Tagliata, a very good sliced strip steak. They also serve quartino measures of wine, which meant we could enjoy two different wines. Our server for dinner (Guiovani, I think) was excellent - friendly, helpful and he seemed to be genuinely happy in his work.I would highly recommend Cittanuova.

Great local tavern with a long history dating back to 1930's. Hangout for Jackson Pollack, Williem De Koonig and more. Cozy American gastropub serving up excellent food, family friendly with a kids menu. Reviewed by New York Times, Newsday, Zagat, Dans Pa

My husband and I were in East Hampton for the weekend visiting our friend Dennis and had such a delightful dinner at Springs Tavern. It's bar food of the highest order! Dennis and I had the fish and chips, which were just greasy enough - - LOVED them. The fries were also damn fine. Our server was Sam, she was darling, she made the meal that much more enjoyable.Thank you so much for letting us know that you really enjoyed your meal and server. I really appreciate this and if your back in east hampton to visit your friend Dennis, please stop in and say hello !!Thank youCharlene
