Softly illuminated by dim votives and wall sconces, the red floral wall treatments and high-backed banquettes are neither obtrusive nor distracting. The bar/waiting area is comfortable and inviting, its walls adorned with a plethora of strangely exciting botanicals and sea creatures. As smooth beats pour from hidden speakers, the narrow building screams Manhattan but, even when the Frisky is crowded, it maintains a quiet sophistication often lacking this side of the Peconic Bay.

The Frisky Oyster’s ever-evolving menu features an eclectic international flair, while using the freshest local products available. Taking a break from the tired seafood dishes of other area restaurants, the Frisky offers entrees that give the veteran establishments a run for their money. No matter what they say, The Frisky Oyster is the place for seafood.

If seafood is not your thing, the Frisky offers a range of other great dishes to tempt your taste buds. You will never go wrong with the Steak Frites, a menu staple and, quite possibly, one of the best steaks in town.

Compliment your meal with a choice from The Frisky Oyster’s extensive list of local, domestic and international wines and, when dinner is complete, belly up to the bar for an after dinner cocktail and mingle with one of the best crowds on the North Fork.

The staff is friendly and knowledgeable; the atmosphere is funky and fresh. The Frisky Oyster is the place where all the cool kids hang out. Nevertheless, be sure to get yourself a cheap babysitter for the night, because The Frisky is not child friendly and a night at this hot spot can surely put a dent in your wallet.
