South Edison, Montauk NY

The food is okay overall, nice environment, good service, but the gluten free chocolate chip cookie with hazelnut gelato is would literally make me drive out here.

Keep an eye on the chef! Frank amazing food great ideas wonderful drinks. I had black and blue.scallops duck fat fries and rick shrimp

Friendly staff. Food was interesting and local but there was a very large group (half of restaurant) so the food came out cold. Would give them another chance.

We had dinner here during our stay in Montauk. The restaurant is bigger than it looks, the staff are all friendly and attentive. Parking lot and entrance ramp make getting in decently accessible. I didn't use the restroom so I don't know if that is accessible or not.

Our drinks and main courses were very good. The pasta dish had a tasty mix of flavors and was cooked al dente. The brisket smash burger was very good and came with a side of crispy French fries.

I do have to note though that the Buffalo Cauliflower on the menu was not at all what I was expecting. If you are looking for crispy pieces of cauliflower dredged in Buffalo sauce, served with blue cheese or ranch dressing, this is not that. Ask them what it is (or see my photo before) before you order (saving you $17).

The yellowfin tuna main course was delicious and highly recommended. We also tried the sashimi fluke, which was good and had a little bit of spice to it. They have excellent cocktails. I liked the Better Decision cocktail better than the Froey. Relaxed environment and attentive service. It was nice that gluten free and vegan options are marked clearly on the menu.

We often visit South Edison when we come to Montauk.

Staff is always friendly and dinner is always tasty.

I spent years overlooking this place, but not anymore!

The Street Corn and Burrata Appetizers were great, plenty to share.

The Lamb empanadas were good enough, but peas or mashed potato would be a good addition.

The cavatelli was excellent, with hidden pockets of lemon and sweetness - great dish.

The pork parmigiana was a massive portion, enough for two, and really delicious.

Overall, I’m impressed! I’ll be back for sure!

Out of all the restaurants in Montauk, South Edison is truly the best culinary gem. The Chef is an absolute genius, each dish is more complex and elevated than the last with layers of fresh bold flavors and texture! Don’t miss out on the mind blowing cocktails/mocktails to pair! The staff is always so pleasant and friendly, and the location is great in the heart of downtown Montauk. Can’t wait to go back already!

Best food I had in Montauk. Atmosphere could use some improvement. It's loud. But the waiter was super nice and the food was just fantastic. The duck was delicious and the fish alla plancha was extremely good. Good thing is it didn't need reservations, just walk in and enjoy a perfect dinner.

Beyond one of my favorite restaurants in Montauk. From the drinks to the food everything is on point. My favorite main dish is their Tuna and my husband's favorite is the burger with duck fat French fries (those alone are amazing, we get a side order to go every time). Our fav apps are the fluke Sashimi and fried olives, both are a must try. Dont get me started on the drinks, really well thought out. Their bartenders and staff are so sweet as well. This place is a must-try. I've seen a few people mention pricing but thats Montauk and I've seen prices tripled theirs at other locations. I feel theyre actually more responsible than most.

They serve underage kids here without ID’ing

Abysmal service and overpriced food. We came on a Thursday night for a 7: 45 reservation. We were not seated until 8 and did not have our first drinks until 8: 30.

I’ve had a better smash burger is the lower east side of Manhattan at 3am for $10. Their $32 smash burger is served in a way the buns become soggy and the burgers itself were still too thick to be considered a smash burger.

Their cocktails tasted of cheap ice. You could actually taste the freezer from ice they used to shake the cocktails.

Insane food! First time in Montauk and we’ve been to five of the best restaurants here……hands down the best food around. Super friendly, great vibe, drink selection was amazing & saw a number of toddlers there.

A must

Amazing service. Frank and Starlin were fabulous. Food was out of this world and have never met nicer and more accommodating people. Will definitely be back.

South Edison is a great casual bar/restaurant.
The ambiance is very good and the service is perfect.
Food is so good and the Oysters were so fresh.
Reasonably priced and a friendly environment.

Excellent food can be hard to come by out here, but they consistently deliver delicious and innovative food. The shrimp tacos, the duck, the fish - all delivered and then some. Even the kids chicken fingers were next level! Great cocktails and wine, friendly staff. Will definitely be back a lot.

Just don’t come here. Much better places in Montauk to eat and have a good time. If you like bad food and supporting rude owners, this place is for you. If you like managers that support rude owners and not the patrons, this place is for you. There is no hospitality here, there are no good vibes, there is nothing to write home about.

Our server Olivia was friendly, authentic, and extremely attentive. The Buffalo chicken bites and fried olive appetizers exceeded expectations. Although the food is good, the cocktails shine brightest here. They were perfectly balanced.
