Best Seafood Restaurants in Springs

I spent Thanksgiving at The Palm for a table of 8. Some had the pre fixe and others ordered off the menu. The ambiance is fantastic and the manager Chris was exceptional accommodating of our numerous reservation adjustments. Food was lovely and very cozy warm vibes. 10/10 dining experience especially for a larger party on a holiday

Summary: One of the best restaurants in Sag Harbor, great view from the upper floor (especially before nightfall), a welcoming ambiance, and prompt service. The food aspires to Top Chef status, but when we were there on Thanksgiving Day, 2024, it didn't quite make that cut. The two starter courses (I had soup and a generous portion of crabmeat) and desserts were fantastic, but my main course choice of traditional turkey seemed to be a pileup of dark meat left over from other customers' preference for white meat. But we had a good time, and the customers were a pleasant mix of families and friends. Since it is part of a hotel, the restaurant was open on Thanksgiving when many restaurants were closed, and we were grateful to get a reservation anywhere close to the day. The price was fair given the day. On Open Table, I don't remember any warning that there would be a $99 prix fixe per person for a four-course meal, plus tax and the required 21% tip (plus a suggested option to add more). This could add up to a surprise for a family. The restaurant website in one place says there is a $50 per person cancellation fee. and in another, it says $100 per person. But these are minor quibbles. I recommend this place.

We really enjoyed our first time at Cove Hollow. The Firecracker Shrimp, Steak and local swordfish were all tasty and well prepared. Craft cocktails were seasonal and got us into the holiday spirits. we will be back.

The food and the service were excellent. We had the Local Beets salad, Calamari Fritto Misto, and the Lump Blue Claw Crab Cake. All were tasty and nicely presented. And the draft Guinness was delicious and expertly poured.

A quiet, well appointed room with attentive but not intrusive staff complements a choice of beautifully prepared and presented dishes. The cocktail and wine list is excellent. All in all, a lovely evening.
