Wow...I didn't think that the restaurant that replaced Sunset Saloon could be any worse...I always went to SS and endured the lousy food because the setting was so great (wonderful sunsets, great bay beachfront and a really chill scene -- great for kids too). There, nobody tried to even pretend that the place was high-end which gave it a sort of charm.
However...the problem with Navy Beach is that the food stinks, the service is HORRIBLE, and they were so unaccommodating that the night was very stressful from the get-go. My wife called and made a reservation for 12 and was told that sitting outside would be no problem. When we got there, the table was tiny and they refused to expand the table. This place epitomizes the problem that Montauk is becoming the Hamptons. Cocktails had no alcohol in them and by the end of the night we were starving and really needed a drink!
