Gosman's Restaurant, Montauk

This restaurant holds a monopoly stake in the dining scene of Montauk. Pretty much anyone who has ever visited the town has dined here, and for good reason. The views are spectacular. You are dining right on the water. The menu features an abundant selection of lobster. The waiting area is a wooden pier with lots of seating, with tables to drink at while you wait. So why the one star off? It’s because you’re truly paying for the experience. The wait is usually at least 20 min. The prices are expensive for the portion size - if you don’t order dessert, you won’t be full. The service, although friendly, is overwhelmed. Is it worth going? Yes, at least once. But if you’re a local, this probably wouldn’t be a place you come to regularly except for special occasions.
