Villa Paul — Restaurant in Town of Southampton

Our very favorite restaurant! The food is always superb and the ambiance is warm and inviting. We are a large family of professional chefs and foodies and we are pretty hard to please. We have never been disappointed at Villa Paul. Reservations are a must, as it is a popular dining spot. If you can visit for the fall and winter holidays, you will enjoy the holiday decorations and the roaring fireplace, which gives it the charm of an old country inn. Don't skip dessert, they are all homemade specialties and absolutely worth the calories! A newly expanded wine list has something for every taste. Prices can be a bit steep, but portions are ample and we always have some to take home for another meal, though they do allow half portions on some pasta plates. This is a great place for celebrating a special occasion with family or a romantic dinner for two. I know they also have large rooms available for parties and have a catering menu, though I have not used either option to date. The bar menu sounds great and is available in the dining room if you are looking to spend a bit less and eat a more informal meal. Either way, you are going to enjoy the experience. There is a wide variety of dishes available and daily specials. There is also the option of an early bird prix fixe menu. Check their website for more info. I highly recommend Villa...

This is a well established, charming restaurant with a delicious menu and dining rooms. They have a warm and inviting decor and a good sized bar. We enjoyed a lovely dinner and started with fresh Mozzarella and Clams Casino. Sweet and delicious. For dinner, I enjoyed their Duck with Cherries. Crispy skin, a rich side sauce, and creamy rice made this a superb choice. My husband enjoyed a grilled 24 oz — Porterhouse Steak. Perfectly done to his liking, he ate every bite. We opted for ice cream and espresso for dessert. As always, it was a most enjoyable meal. We saw no ghosts but would return for a psychic night here. The restaurant does have a rich history of apparitions and unexplained movements and noises. Perhaps the adjacent cemetery residents make occasional passings and staff seem to see them while not much else is going on to distract them like a full house of diners. And if you think you will see the cemetery's headstones across from the parking lot, not to worry, you won't. A previous realtor had them all removed to make the property more attractive for sale. Thus, whether you are a believer or non-believer, one thing for sure if you will get a great meal prepared by a talented chef and...

I took my Wife for her Birthday Dinner.. the ambience during Christmas was beautiful!.. let me start with the waitstaff.. professional, attentive, really made us feel special!.. a beautiful setting of an old House.. the visual atmosphere of the place was very relaxing.. started off with Clams Oreganatta .. top necks.. came out perfect!.. had some perfectly prepared Old Fashioned Bourbon cocktails to start, followed by my main course ..Veal Marsala.. tender!.. the sauce was beyond compare and a generous portion!.. My Wife had Eggplant Parmesan ( Her favorite).. I sampled some and it was cooked perfectly and generous portions.. overall my experience there was above expectations.. I don’t write reviews really, but this place deserves it for the pride in their business and attention to every detail.. it’s been around since the 50s I think.. but a little known secret because a lot of local older residents frequent there.. it’s located in an non obtrusive spot right off Montauk Hwy in Hampton Bays.. try it!.. you won’t be disappointed.. and the prices are extremely reasonable!.. you almost say “ what?” When you get the bill… you’d spend the same at an Applebees or Fridays for a night...
