ONE OF THE BEST PLACES IN THE HAMPTONS
This is a "real restaurant", great service, great food, cozy atmosphere. They get it all right. We have been going here for years, and have always been taken care of...reservations are always honored with little wait, food is always fresh, and service is always professional. The only negative I can say is that they don't change the menu often enough, and the bar area is very small, so if you have to wait for your table, there is sometimes no place to hang out. -

Robert's is a must go if you are in the Hamptons. It is a quaint little restaurant with great ambiance, classy dark wood decor, and charming staff, with attentive, friendly service. The chef, Natalie Byrnes knows what she's doing. The food is well prepared and the focus is the quality of ingredients. We came for dinner and here is what we had:
*Tomato salad with fresh burrata, grilled slices of bread, basil and balsamic. This dish was delicious, the tomatoes were fresh and sweet and the burrata was creamy and went so well with the grilled bread.
* Grilled calamari on a bed of arugula. Another amazing dish, so simple but so well executed. The calamari was tender, with a spicy jalapeno rub and a citrusy dressing.
* Seared rare tuna with a sesame crust, with a fennel salad and caper berries. Melt in your mouth tuna, so good!
* Fresh tagliatele with black summer truffles and parmesan. I think this was my favorite dish.
* Slow cooked lamb with vegetables. Another great dish, with fall off the bone pieces of lamb with a tomato-vegetable sauce.
*dessert was a pistachio nougat. It was perfect to finish the meal. Light, with little bits of praline.
Everything was solid, well made, fresh and delicious. -

Wonderful, creative food, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. The service (from the wait staff) was friendly and helpful, with any requests being taken care of very quickly. Chesley, our waiter, was particularly welcoming.
Unfortunately, our entire experience was ruined by the extremely rude maitre d' who was snotty, sarcastic and lacks any sense of etiquette. Robert Durkin should replace her immediately or risk losing any future return business altogether. I would have happily rated this restaurant as a solid 5* if it wasn't for her impertinence. Had it not been for the fact that we were entertaining guests, we would have gotten up and left.
This may seem a little harsh but the experience of eating out is just that, an experience, and does not solely rely on the quality of the food. Having eaten at many top restaurants on 5 continents around the world, I have NEVER been spoken to as rudely. The grudging, empty, attempt at an apology after the meal only served to exacerbate the problem. -

Very good restaurant, but perhaps my expectations were set too high. The decor and service are very nice. Other than the creamy polenta side dish, none of the food wowed me. The truffle pasta was light on the truffles and heavy on the truffle oil. The tuna was good, but no better than most other restaurants and the artichokes were a little heavy on the marinade. I was wowed when I realized that the slice of peach blueberry pie that the waiter recommend was $18 a slice. With that being said, I will return to Robert's for another meal although, I am not in a hurry to do so.

Not sure why it took me so long to write this review, i've been dinning at Robert's for years and by far and away this is the BEST restaurant in the Hamptons! I can't say enough about the quality and preparation of the food. In the winter it's warm and cozy inside and you can't beat eating outside in their garden in the summer!

Had dinner at Roberts a couple weeks ago and was very impressed. It's very quaint and charming. The menu is American and the wines delicious. This is not a Hamptons scene restaurant, and very romantic. Highly suggested for date night. Had the monkfish and it was impeccable.

this is probably the best restaurant east of Riverhead. it's quiet, comfortable, and serves fare as fine as anywhere in Southampton, Bridgehampton, or East Hampton.
that might sound unimpressive, but if you know the area and the types of restaurants i'm talking about, it's a decent feat. -

Yes, I am beginning to enjoy exploring small but wonderful places like Robert's on the south fork, near my neighborhood. The ambience is sublime, and each dish, each course, more fantastic and delectable than the first. We tried as much as we could in two visits. The service was professional and courteous, and above all, knowledgeable. The wine recommendation paired beautifully with our grilled shrimp and salmon, roasted asparagus, and the polenta so creamy,we wanted to order more. Can't wait to visit again!

YUMMY!! Truffle pasta is delicious. Everything is delicious. Small cozy atmosphere with great service. Specials every night. The only dilemma is what to choose from the amazing menu. Great for a birthday dinner with the family. Hidden in Watermill, most people don't even know about it, truly a hidden gem! A+

I haven't been here in quite awhile, but I am looking forward to the next time I can enjoy this restaurant. Robert's is truly a gem. It has it all: ambiance, an intriguing menu and most importantly, good food. Located in the Hamptons area, this place possesses all of the charm that has made the Hamptons famous, but none of the snootiness that it is often associated with. The last time I ate here, I had a fennel salad with oranges, onion and parmesan to begin. Simple as it was, the flavor combination was amazing. I also had a sole dish that was served with black olives, tomatoes and capers. The fish was fresh and perfectly cooked. I also sampled a homemade gnocchi. Typically, I am not a fan. However, Robert's sold me with their version. A bit out of the way for most, but worth the trip. I ate here with my family on both visits, but would recommend this place for a romantic or special occasion.
