This under-the-radar spot elsewhere in Hamptons Bays is a great option for a waterfront meal that doesn’t include driving over an hour to Montauk.

If you’re celebrating a bachelorette party or birthday, make a reservation on the “Rumbus,” a private party bus. Try the fresh fish tacos and split an order of melt-in-your-mouth plantains at this laid-back dining spot. Rumba offers a plethora of delightful rum cocktails, an upbeat reggae soundtrack, and is accessible by boat, if you want to drop by that way. The colorful, kitschy waterfront restaurant is located right on Shinnecock Bay, so you can sip coconut mojitos while watching the sunset. This Hamptons Bay eatery is by far one of the most exciting and underrated dining experiences out East.
