The American Hotel

Im have been in and my friends are in the restaurant business and are huge foodies and wine buffs. The food at the American Hotel is absolutely amazing. I went on a Tuesday and saw their $1 Oyster special and had 2doz myself. All apps & entrees were incredible and the desert was phenomenal as well. I'm sober but my friends order 2 bottles of fantastic wine also at a very very reasonable price. 5 star all around because the service was impeccable on all ends.

My visit is based off of a bar visit only! I have a book about touring the Hamptons and and there when I have time I go through the book and pick out some stuff to check out that the book recommends. The American Hotel bar was one of the places to visit.

I walked in and the atmosphere was quiet when I went in and spotted the bar pretty easily. I sat down and had one on one service from the bartender since I was the only one there. I don't drink alcohol anymore but recently I have been having non alcoholic beers here and there and the bartender had one in stock so he poured me a non alcoholic beer. It cost me $15 including leaving a decent size tip for a drink since I normally tip $1 a drink when I go out. It's a more swankier place so I expected a higher price.

The bar seems to have a good selection for alcohol drinking people and if there were more people there it might have been a more fun atmosphere, for me it was more of a relaxing, take a few minutes to get myself together atmosphere which I appreciated.

Maybe one day if I've got more money I'll spend the night as a guest in this hotel.

The staff, service and food were absolutely on point.... oysters Rockefeller, the bone marrow and the lamb chops were a favorite among all our guests... Truly an amazing experience all the way around.... highly recommend the restaurant at the American Hotel in Sag Harbor.

Charnice was the epitome of customer service I often stay here I come maybe every two or three weeks every time the smile is the same. The level of Service is the same she’s warming. She’s funny not only that she is beautiful. That smile is very captivating. She’s one of the reason why I keep coming back to this place I do recommend cannot wait for the new Renovation as well.

They understand customer service. This is a special place from top to bottom. You're gonna pay, but we spent a week in the Hamptons and it's impossible to find professional friendly hospitality workers like this anymore. Get a drink and some oysters at the bar before your table is ready. Test me.

I'm never unhappy when I dine at the American Hotel in Sag Harbor. The service is always an A+ and my favorite meal is the crabcakes with a mushroom risotto. Absolutely delicious.

I like the foie gras, ossetra, whole lobster, cream mushrooms. The warm lemon water to wash my hands after lobster is very pleasant. Very pleasant dining every time. The manager and staff are very friendly.

I have been coming here for over 25 years! This place never disappoints and always has excellent food and excellent service. The building itself is very charming with a bit of a spooky feel inside, which adds to the experience. Fun crowd, great people watching. Great for families and if you’re just coming out to grab a drink at the bar. It’s a staple in sag!

Your staff was great. Food was wonderful. The bone marrow is to die for.

Impeccable service! Food was delicious! Our waiter, Dennis, was top notch! He was knowledgeable and very attentive. We had a great time and didn't feel rushed. Even though they were busy. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Fresh, delicious seafood and classic American dishes. The staff are some of the most polite, accommodating, and helpful I’ve ever met. We had a large party—including three young children—but the staff helped fit us in and attended assiduously to our table. I will certainly be returning.

We went last night for our 42nd wedding anniversary. Fantastic Food n Drink. I had the Spinach Salad. Than Scallops with creamy Mashed Potatoes n Green Cauliflower Husband had Ceasars Salad n than Lamb Chops .. EXCELLENT

Have been going for years. Love the hipster repellent decor, wine list, great food and amazing service. I’ve only had two bad experiences there.

The first was a cougar attack on my dessert. After two hours of flirting with everyone eligible at the bar, the predators took spoons to my ice cream without asking. When confronted, they attempted to use a coordinated smile and back touch maneuver...which was lacking and dated. The bartender (I was eating at the bar) might have done more to protect me as I was an obvious bystander (sub 50 / lacking 3 commas).

The second episode involved a friend’s 4 month old baby. A member of the board of directors (not of the hotel) lifted her out of her stroller (without obtaining prior approval) and began to engage the toddler. When confronted and forced to return the child he grew agitated.

All in all, an amazing place to dine at and an amazing place to be. Should be 12/10.

Quite simply, this is one of the finest restaurants in New York. I went on a Saturday night with my partner, and everything about the experience was outstanding. The service was fast and friendly, and the food is out of this world.

We got the duck confit and the Pate de Foie de Canard to start, and both were really tasty, especially the duck. For mains she had the rabbit, and I had the filet mignon. Both were good, but I felt the filet really stood out. One of the best steaks I’ve ever had.

The other star of the show here is the wine. Our server was very knowledgeable and directed us to an absolutely fantastic California Cabernet that went perfectly with our food.

This place is not cheap, but it is worth every single penny for a special dinner with a loved one.

Service was prompt, outdoor seating had very good heat lamps, food was tasty (a bit overpriced but to be expected) and interior is thoughtfully done. Enjoyed the experience, 5 stars, but not enough to return over trying other restaurants for now. Also, very cute restaurant washroom.

Absolutely love this classic. Great food and INCREDIBLE wines and you can't beat the location. Rooms dont have TV just Fyi

This is a very good restaurant with very good service and very good food. They have a very extensive wine list and it's on the expensive side to eat there. But if you want a top-notch restaurant with really good food, this is a great place to eat in Sag Harbor

To OSMAN the concierge guy:
You are a life saver!!! You helped me big time in getting a cab. Seems like a pretty simple thing but the thing is I am not even a guest. For him to extend his services to me speaks volumes of the kind of person he is. Even the wait staff was nice when I was in his way. He was never rude to me. To the hotel: you employ very good and genuinely nice people. Please acknowledge and appreciate them. I highly recommend this hotel. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.

Wonderful restaurant with impeccable service and excellent food. They have an outstanding outdoor seating area in the back that is inviting, relaxing and a great place to have a meal. Consistently excellent experience. 5 Stars

Food was absolutely delicious. My wife and I had to seafood dishes that were incredibly fresh and had amazing sauces. Ambience was nice. Service was a little slow but with Covid it’s acceptable. And nothing horrible anyway. Definitely a bit pricey but nothing too crazy.
