A great seemingly underrated player in the North Fork (Long Island) universe; the Jamesport Manor Inn has many great things going for it. First off, the setting is nice and is off the beaten path enough to make it feel like a slightly clandestine destination. Second, the service is some of the smoothest and subtlest we have ever experienced anywhere on Long Island. Finally, the food is near perfection. We ate there during the recent restaurant week and had great duck and oysters. The place has been apparently rebuilt after a recent fire, but the spirits of the place remain and the sense one has is dining in a kind of haunted house...Not an experience for anyone, but intriguing and a very sophisticated feeling for the adventurous.
