Came for thanksgiving so there was a prefix menu. The food was amazing, and the portions were quite large which is on theme for thanksgiving. Everything was beautifully plated, the staff was really great. The vibe is very much, house turned into restaurant and I loved it.

I was so impressed with Southold Social, as was my husband and daughter.We just had Thanksgiving dinner yesterday and it was beyond exceptional.Everything from the greeting when entering, the ambiance, staff, and of course the food it was impeccable. And I must add the bartender, she made an amazing strawberry jalapeño martini, which happens to be my favorite cocktail. The presentation of the whole meal and drinks was so beautifully presented. We’re locals and have eaten at all restaurant's on the north fork, even for Thanksgiving. Southold Social was by far the best yet.

The food was incredible at Southold Social. I love the restaurant. The bar area is really cute and it was a lively place. Also the outdoor patio looks lovely, but it was very hot when I ate there so we chose to eat inside.

The food was delicious. My favorites are linguine with clams, and the octopus. Both were incredible. I loved everything I ate and my cocktail was also delicious… I forgot what it was called, but it was a tequila drink. I highly recommend you try this wonderful restaurant in Southold.

We made a reservation for 7:30pm for valentines day 3 weeks prior. Arrived 10 minutes early just in case (because it can get busy) they had us waiting for over 30 minutes before we could sit down, after we we sat down they had a set “special” menu for the day which was pretty basic, we waited another 30 minutes before calling the waiter over who had forgotten to attend us and attended people who got there way later than us. We ordered drinks while we waited for the food that should’ve been done faster than usual if its a set menu but the drinks were served once again after the waiter remembered about us and after the food had arrived. Nonetheless we tried to enjoy our night but were rushed and even before we could finish our dessert and coffee the check was handed to us which made us feel very uncomfortable and felt as if we were getting kicked out. Just a few things of many that made our special night not so special.
The picture I took is after an hour and some change of waiting for food or drinks. Spent close to $300 for 2 people. Disappointed.

Had the BEST FOOD AND THE BEST TIME HERE!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 My hunnnies Jeff and I are new to the North Fork 🥰!! I have been SO EXCITED to try this place but they were closed for the season! When I saw they were opening and hosting a wine dinner pairing on Thursday nights WE HAD TO GO!!! First off~ I LOVEEEEE FOOD and a great cocktail(s), this was a NO-BRAINER!!! I have to say we had the BEST TIME 🤩🤩🤩🤩, we met cool peeps and the FOOOOOD WAS AMAZEEEEEE!!! Not only was everything DELISH BUT THE PORTIONS were spot on!!! There was no way you were leaving hungry which happens often when you do a prixe fix menu. The other NICE SURPRISE was they added a beginner course which was a chilled cream of asparagus soup!!! WOWZA~ SOOOO GOOD!!! The next course was salmon~ again SALMON is my FAV, so was so EXCITED ABOUT THIS. Then we had gnocchi~ which coming from an Atkins loving person here 🙋‍♀️ I try to limit my carbs~ BUT not here!!! I was no way NOT gonna eat it~ and DAMN~ it was SOOOOO WORTH IT 💪🏻💖💪🏻. If that wasn’t enough, the main dish was short ribs which was a DOUBLE WOWZA!!! AND ALL THAT was topped off with a tangy dessert plus flowing wine!!! I say flowing because they kept refilling and there was no shortage of wine (as there usually is when you do a wine~ dinner pairing). All in all we have found our NEW HOT SPOT!!! I can’t say enough good things about the food, the wait staff and the chef!!! If you are in the area (then you probably already know all this) but DEF make this place your new go-to!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻~ and if you are visiting~ then you MUST COME BY!!!! This is North Fork cooking at its BEST and you will be SOOOO HAPPY YOU DID!!! This a 5 star North Fork restaurant for sure!!! 💖👏🏻💖👏🏻💖~ DEF BE SURE TO CHECK IT OUT!!!

Food was so good! Focaccia was perfectly airy and finished with a sprinkle of sea salt. We had the charred octopus, tuna crudo, orecchiette with mushrooms, and house made cavatelli. Service was great! Our favorite was the chocolate dome…I could have this every night.

I hadn’t been to Southold Social, but had been to its predecessor restaurant (Caci). The space is great and SS’s menu looked delicious, so I went with my parents on a recent weeknight. Most everything we had delicious, and when there was a problem with one of our meals (it was prepared differently than what the menu said), they were incredibly helpful and changed it immediately. And a special shout out to our wonderful server Eleanor, who was so kind and friendly and a delight to talk to! I moved cross country, but next time I’m in town I will definitely be back.

So happy we found this place. Great food, cocktails and service.
Now we're happy to drive all the way from the Hamptons to have decent food.
