Each summer tons of people flock to The Hamptons to enjoy its gorgeous beaches, tasty restaurants, and endless shopping.

For everyone escaping NYC for a bit this summer to take a trip out east, here are some of the best restaurants in the Hamptons worth checking out.
1. N’AMO Seafood and Raw Bar, Montauk
Brand new to The Hamptons dining scene this summer is N’AMO, an Italian-American seafood spot that has already gotten the thumbs up from multi-platinum rapper 50 Cent during their Memorial Day Weekend Kick Off event.
Their wood-washed interior accented with nautical blue makes for a great dining experience, and their menu of Dungeness Crab Ravioli and Garganelli Verde with Romagna sausage ragu are enough to make your mouth water. Keep an eye on their Instagram all summer long as they frequently host dance performances and live music. See their full menu and book a spot here.
