American Hotel Restaurant
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/8/04
Perhaps we have higher expectations of food coming from Manhattan. But as Sag Harbor and the surrounding "villages" are an outpost of the wealthier set, we expected far better than we received at the American Hotel. After ordering a salad for starters, we were tipped off immediately by its gigantic size! The barbequed duck (field greens, with duck, mango and sour cherries -- which were simply dried cherries) was tough and dry. The fish (tuna and salmon) both over-cooked even after the wait-staff asked for our preference. We skipped dessert to cut our losses and headed for "Scoop" in East Hampton.
