Arbor Opens in Montauk For Second Season

MONTAUK, NY — Arbor, a Montauk eatery, will open for its second season on Thursday, May 18 — bringing a new outdoor bar and dining room, as well as its signature Mediterranean style menu.

The Garret, a New York City based cocktail brand with two locations run by Den Hospitality and recently included among the best speakeasy bars in NYC by TimeOut New York, "is bringing their penchant for creating quality and lively bar scenes to Arbor’s outdoor bar," a release read. "The Garret's top tier mixologists will feature playfully elevated cocktails in a laid-back environment at Arbor's newly built outdoor oasis and circular bar."

Open Thursday through Sunday starting Memorial Day Weekend, the beverage menu will feature cocktails such as the Refinery 63 with Singani 63, mezcal, passionfruit, fermented pineapple, and lime juice in a double rocks glass, and punch bowls — serving four to six guests — such as the Sunrise Special with smoked whiskey, pineapple, sage, dolin blanc, vermouth, lime, bitters, and Montauk beer.

The outdoor 40-seat patio dining area extends the indoor dining space among landscaped grounds, complete with heaters for cool evenings.

The menu, executed by executive chef Pierre Sudre, brings back signature dishes such as tuna tartare, hand diced with avocado and eel sauce; watermelon and feta salad with sea bean, mint and raita dressing; mussels marniere, wild Canadian mussels and fries, gigli shrimp pasta; New York strip with green peppercorn sauce and fries; and the pizzas such as the truffata with stracciatella cheese, trufatta, arugula and pickled onion.

In addition, the 2017 season brings a new section on the menu, “For the Table,” featuring dishes to be shared.

The progressive wine program will return offering a wine by the bottle list housed in the restaurant’s wine cellar in the main dining area. The wines by the glass program returns with 15 – 20 wines by the glass maintained in the Enomatic wine dispensing system at the restaurant. The beer selection rounds out the program, with 12 craft beers on tap, including a selection out of Crooked Ladder Brewing Company in Riverhead.

Arbor will be open for dinner Thursday through Monday until mid-June when it will change to seven days.
