As your trusted Hamptons real estate agent, I always make sure to recommend the best and newest local gems to my clients and customers. Today, I wanted to share with you about Montauk's hidden gem—a family-run seafood eatery, HOOKED. With their mantra of "Pure and Simple," HOOKED offers something for every taste and budget. From locally sourced seafood to classic favorites like burgers and salads, this eatery is a must-try for anyone visiting the area.

Tucked away in the heart of Montauk, HOOKED is the perfect spot to eat like a local. With a focus on high-quality seafood, the menu has a wide variety of options for all sorts of travelers. From fried or grilled seafood, to local steamed lobsters, and even chowder and lobster rolls, every dish is an essential local experience.

For those that love raw oysters, HOOKED has a fantastic raw bar featuring Montauk Pearl Oysters and Clams. As a Hamptons local, I always love to support independent businesses and HOOKED is a fantastic example of what the area has to offer its visitors.

This restaurant is family-run and locally owned, which means you'll get a warm reception from the moment you arrive. The atmosphere also doesn't skimp on what makes Montauk special. You can order at the counter before heading outside to enjoy your meal at one of HOOKED's highly coveted picnic tables. Or, you can take it to-go and savor it on one of Montauk’s spectacular beaches.

Overall, if you're looking for an authentic Montauk experience, HOOKED is the perfect stop. It's an exceptional example of the area's seafood offerings and is a fantastic introduction to what Montauk has to offer.
