Success comes to Elm Street! T Bar Southampton brings more than the beef to it"s the newest location. Sophisticated yet uncomplicated, the black and white decor gives you both a Hamptons and exciting European ambiance to this Southampton's newbie. But the owner is not new at this at all. His experience and success may make this steak house a great destination and one within just steps of the Southampton train station making for no excuse for not visiting. The food and service were excellent. We arrived well ahead of the crowds so for us, the servers and turn around times between courses was a perfect pace. We started with a crispy, cold, caesar salad. The shaved parmesan was flavorful as was the crisp served with it. We both ordered the 24oz Rib-eye steak, aged and cooked to perfection, with high marbling and flavor. It was accompanied by a sprig of fresh Rosemary and caramelized roasted head of garlic. I delighted in mixing a clove into the fresh spinach for a fantastic taste. We chose the Bearnaise sauce for the steak — just a decadent enhancement to a deliciously prepared meal. For dessert, I opted for a cup of Japanese Sencha Green Tea and one scoop of Mango Sorbet. Of course, half of my steak, along with the remaining spinach, went home in a doggy bag. Can't wait to open that bag today!!! Welcome T Bar to Southampton, may you be rewarded for your efforts to bring such a beautiful outdoor and indoor spot for guests to enjoy a...
Read moreI'm guessing this review won't matter bc the place was jammed when we were there. It took about 20 min b4 we flagged a passing waiter to give our drinks order. 2 of our drinks arrived about 10 min later but the third took repeated requests and probably another 15 min to land on our table...maybe they had to run to the liquor store to get a bottle of cassis. Anyway they made a kir royale instead of the kir that'd been ordered. Our waitress arrived probably 35-40 min after we'd been seated to take our food order and she did apologize. The apps were good though, people, guacamole is not supposed to be served cold. Whatever. Then our grilled salmons on Caesar came instead on an overdressed field salad. We weren't going to complain bc who knows where our waitress was or when the correct order would have appeared. Late in the meal, the manager in a 3 piece circled the tables asking how everything was, apparently clueless how deep in the weeds his staff was. This apparently is one of the best Southampton...
Read moreExcellent service as they held our reservation for 30 minutes on this night due to traffic and weather issues our group faced. Food was amazing with a farm to table freshness and creativity to the menu. The steak was cooked perfectly and the vegetarian in our group was also very satisfied with their Vegan risotto dish. Desserts are to die for and I highly recommend the strawberry dessert!
Service was excellent and multiple servers remained attentive to our table.
Bartenders are amazing and put in the effort to make a shot they were not familiar with (the shot is a not a popular shot and I just learned of it myself a week ago). I asked them not to worry about it but they made sure to find out how to make it and made it exactly the way I had tasted it at a different place before!
Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting or living in town. Will...
