SHARE

Exciting news for all our KDHamptons foodies fans! Morty’s Oyster Stand is now open for the season. Last week, I headed to Amagansett for a dinner date Morty’s with Dr. Kot who was especially excited to try the new restaurant which has opened at the site of the former Cyril’s, one of his all-time favorite Hamptons spots. Happy to report that Morty’s does not disappoint! We loved it.

Jeremy Morton and Jack Luber have partnered with hospitality veteran Charles Seich of critically acclaimed Ferris in New York City to create a casual, cool and refined restaurant and bar inspired by sustainable seafood, East Coast Oysters, and coastal cuisine.

The team has tapped notable chef Sam Talbot, who first put The Surf Lodge on the map, to head the kitchen of this summer seafood destination.

With both indoor and outdoor dining, the 150 patron space designed by Jack Luber features Hamptons-style decor with navy cedar shingles and grey accents throughout the space, brass portholes, French tile wallpaper custom printed with iconic local images, and a spacious outdoor bar.

The beverage program at Morty’s Oyster Stand features a rotating list of frozen cocktails, specialty cocktails, craft beers and wine. The beer selection highlights breweries such as Coney Island, Narragansett, Stillwater and Montauk Brewery, and the wine list features a variety of roses, summer reds and whites.

Chef Sam Talbot’s menu features sustainably sourced seafood and the best of local, seasonal produce.  The menu begins with a variety of rotating fresh oysters (wellfleet, nauti pilgrim, moonstone, pemaquids) brought in daily, as well as additional raw bar items like littleneck clams and shrimp cocktail and Maine Uni.

The menu also includes sides like Lobster Mac and Cheese and Skinny Frenchies and desserts such as the BBC Ice Cream Sandwich round out the menu.  There’s also a special kid’s menu available for families.

Morty’s also offers oyster happy hour from 4 to 5 p.m. every day. Diners may enjoy $1.50 oysters and discounted drinks including local rosé at $10 per glass/$40 per bottle and $10 frozen drinks.

Morty’s Oyster Stand is open daily from noon with the kitchen closing at 9pm, Sunday-Thursday and 10 pm on Fridays, Saturdays and holiday Sundays. The bar will remain open late. No reservations for dining, it will be first come first serve.
