The Backyard

Out of the way and away from the scene. Restaurant and lounge behind Solé East offers chic Montauk. Besides cushy oversize patio chairs to lay out on, a pool to cool off, and a DJ, the food's the main attraction. Touches like grill items (seafood and steak) that can be custom mixed and matched with an intriguing array of sauces (from simple gremolata to grilled pinapple coulis) tempt. If you're really smitten, get a room.
