Soundview Restaurant. It all began with a snack bar on the beach in 1935, 75 years later, just a stone’s throw east of the legendary Shack, stands the landmark Soundview Restaurant, ideally located directly on Long Island Sound. Enjoy panoramic views of beautiful sunsets from the seaside decks or one of the glass-enclosed dining areas. A piano bar and seafood centric menu has been a staple for quite some time.http://soundviewrestaurant.com/home.cfm
