Highway Restaurant & Bar

As the name indicates, Highway is indeed right on the Montauk Highway—though the Hamptons version of a highway is a two-way road, so excessive noise isn’t something to worry about, even on the patio. The menu kind of jumps all over the place, with options like crab and papaya salad, wonton soup, seafood pastas, and eggplant parm, but they pull it all off. They also do a nice kid’s menu (homemade penne in tomato sauce or butter) and family-style takeout packages with hearty pastas, chicken parm, and top-notch veal and prosciutto meatballs.
