- 49 Main Street, Sag Harbor
- American-French menu, five dining rooms
- Wine Spectator Grand Award since 1981
- Eight historic rooms above the restaurant
The American Hotel has been doing the same thing on Main Street since 1846 — five small dining rooms, a wine cellar that has held its Grand Award for forty-five years, and a menu that is genuinely both American and French without trying to be clever about it. The Drew Room is the right table for a quiet anniversary dinner; the porch in summer is the right table for the lazy lunch that turns into the entire afternoon.
The wine list is the reason most people who care about wine come here — over 3,000 selections, the Burgundy depth is what you would expect in Paris, and the sommeliers know it cold. For honeymoons in Sag Harbor, dinner here on the first night sets the tone.
