Casual waterfront dining right on the docks of the Patchogue River, The Oar serves up fresh and delicious steaks and seafood.  Chefs prepare specialties like coconut shrimp, 36 oz sizzling prime porterhouse, lobster quesadillas and fresh Bluepoint oysters and little clams which are delivered daily.  Two dining rooms are decorated in traditional nautical style.  The front wall in made up of French doors that open onto the water, providing dockside open air seating in warm months and picturesque views of the marina year-round.  The rear dining room is elegant with raise panel mahogany, white table clothes and blue and white nautical stripe wall paper.  We look forward to accommodating your special occasion in the separate catering room.  The restaurant stocks full indoor and outdoor bars so you'll never miss a beautiful night at this fun and entertaining spot.

    Great food and service. The atmosphere is wonderful as this restaurant is on the marina. Clams on the half shell so fresh and the lobster roll was fabulous. Lots of lobster.

    Had to take a very early reservation as nothing else was available. However, restaurant was and remained relatively empty throughout the 2 hours we were there, with at least 10 or more open tables in just the area we were seated. Not sure why we had to take such an early time. Food and service was very good. Noise level was almost unbearable between being seated near bar and the live music. Couldn’t hear anything said from dining companion, which kind of squashed the whole point of the going out together thing.

    We went for LI restaurant week because that menu is always outstanding. I prefer their lunch menu over their dinner menu because of the many available sandwich options including the lobster roll. Everything was very good.

    I spent just as much money as I would have at Prime in Huntington and the food was not even close. My wife and I also ended up with some stomach issues a few hours later. Place is nice looking, service was fine, nothing exceptional.

    The Oar Steak and Seafood GrillResponded on October 17, 2022Hi, we’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed in your experience with us. We never want our customers to be disappointed in their meal and we especially never want anyone to experience stomach issues. Could you give us more information on what you ordered and when so we can look into this?

    We got lobster roll sliders to start (so fresh and tasty). I got the fish and chips which were perfectly cooked. I would have loved some greens with it. My husband got the fra diavolo (I'm sure I'm spelling that wrong) and that was spectacular. Perfectly cooked seafood in delicious sauce. The view was lovely and the tables were spaces nicely. I would definitely dine here again.
