75 Main - A Southampton Staple

75 Main - A Southampton Staple, Off-Season and Every Summer



I arrived at 75 Main on the afternoon of the Kentucky Derby and was thrilled to find a lively crowd of local onlookers.


While the Hamptons is slowly springing to life after the mild winter, evidence of revitalized and fabulous venues is discernible from a drive down Montauk Highway. With a comforting New American menu, boasting Hamachi Tartare, Black Truffle Cheese-Potatoes Grain and Sauteed Branzini, reservations are recommended. 631.283.7575 or OpenTable.

With a brand new location in Del Ray Beach, Zach Erdem (prorpietor) has had his hands full, jetting between sunny Florida and the warming Hamptons!


The allure of 75 Main is their ability to remain open year-round...and to do so with a vibrant crowd. Sure the curb appeal from Main Street in Southampton is part of the draw, but Erdem's promoting prowess turns this back room


...into this


Sometimes Nobu, Social House and Savannahs are too crowded. Or maybe you want to forego the hawty-tawty glitterati for some more comradery. 75 Main, with the seamless blending of a classy restaurant, casual outdoor seating and the nightly transition into a hip lounge is a very savvy answer.

With occassional appearances by Lee Kalt, there is no telling what the night could bring (or when it could end).

Check spyehampton for an upcoming interview with Zach Erdem, the logistics brains, PR brawn and principal proprietor of 75 Main Street!

  1. It looks like the Kentucky Derby is just a good excuse to wear white before Memorial Day... wish I had thought of it myself.
