Charming gem on Shelter Island! Lovely staff was so kind and warm. Can’t wait to go back. Food is delicious too! Calamari and dessert are incredible. Previous reviews referenced the staff in a negative way, but I believe I saw a strange interaction with that group and the table was wildly rude to the server. Do yourself a favor and visit this historic beauty filled with friendly servers and bartenders who love to make sure you have the perfect event.

Amazing atmosphere with a coastal island vibe. Pup friendly and so accommodating. Must try. Pro tip: visit the café Friday – Monday for house made pastries and seasonal lattés

The tavern got a nice refresh this last winter. It looks great. Thursday’s happy hour and buck-a-shuck is the best on the island! Oysters – Shrimp – Clams

The food is terrible. It’s really not good. And the funny thing is it’s very expensive. I think a really lousy burger is $29. The NY Strip is $50 and it’s a supermarket-bought steak cooked with no flavor and served with the worst wet spinach and gooey yuck mash potatoes ever made. It’s so sad that the chef can’t cook. Because the place has a very nice view. Also, the staff are untrained too. So the whole experience is sad and disappointing and expensive. Save yourself and go anywhere else on shelter island.

We planned a large welcome party at The Chequit having closed it down for the evening. The staff at the Chequit were great and easy to work with, and their food was great too. We rearranged lots of their furniture and flowed from inside and out. It’s not an easy feat to have a hospitality business that runs well, in an area that is incredibly seasonal. This event was hosted just after Labor Day. Thanks again.

Overpriced, and the food is bland and cooked without any tact or skill. It felt amateur. And the staff are just rude and odd. there were way too many strange men working there, specifically our waiter who was beyond condescending and odd with regards to the way he spoke to my family and I. I’m surprised they keep him
on. All in all, it’s a shame that such a beautiful island is home to such a rotten restaurant. Go elsewhere! Trust me! If it was 15-20$ a dish, I’d say screw it. But with the prices you’ll be paying and the treatment you’ll be getting on a weekend in the summer, avoid at all costs!

Very disappointing, given the premium they charge. Sword fish was very dry and bland. The chicken sandwich was overdone/almost burnt. Coursing also had room for improvement: the appetizers/food came before the drinks… Would not recommend. However the atmosfere was pleasant and the garden nice.

Warning… Would have given more stars, but the black ceiling is pretty low for anyone 5’10” or taller. I didn’t see any signs and the staff didn’t say anything about the the low ceiling… As a person 6’3″, I hit my head kinda hard. Food was great, and the alcohol help me head.

If I was in the area again, I would go back.

Apps were good- chicken wings and calamari. Entrees left a lot to be desired. The clams with tagliolini were too salty and beef bourguignon was pretty bland. Almost no non alcoholic drinks on the menu. I would suggest a blueberry basil soda or a passion fruit and ginger. The atmosphere was nice, I might return just for appetizers.

Be careful. Kids chicken fingers are $25!!!
Soup was cold. One day you can order from the bar menu and one day you can’t ??? They need to respect the locals if they want to keep their doors open!! Sarah was a great waitress and she’s the only reason I’d give them 2 stars. This food is mediocre at best. And I’ve eaten all over the US
