Butler's Flat

Sitting dock side on Manhasset Bay, the wind blowing off the Long Island Sound, the sunset turning the evening sky red and a quarter pound of fresh shucked lobster with a little mayo and a little celery on a buttered and grilled roll awaits ...

Welcome to Butler's Flat!

Update: May 15

First, I hope everyone and their family is safe and healthy during this time. Some good news to report, we will be opening for season #9 here on Manhasset Bay in a few weeks. I can’t thank everyone enough for all the support over the last 8 years and I truly appreciate everyone who has reached out to check on the staff and I and to those who donated to the gofundme we setup for the employees at Restaurant Marc Forgione.

I am still working on the timing and the changes to the concept that we will need to make to ensure we are preparing and delivering your food in a safe and efficient manner. The menu will be limited this season, more so at the start as we figure out how much we can produce with a limited kitchen staff due to social distancing guidelines. Be assured that as we are able to add items to the menu we will be. Seating will be limited to start the season and all food will be served in disposable covered containers.

I can’t guarantee much except when we do open the lobster rolls will be fresh, the drinks cold and we will be smiling behind our masks. We are looking forward to being back in Port and serving everyone again. Further updates to come as we get closer to opening. Stay safe and we will see you soon.
