Nino’s Beach in Port Washington is where luxury meets laid-back coastal vibes, offering Mediterranean-inspired seafood and cocktails with stunning waterfront views. Located right by the marina, this spot feels like a mini escape to the Hamptons without leaving Nassau County.
The ambiance is bright and chic with whitewashed wood, wicker accents, plush seating, and breezy outdoor tables overlooking the water. Palm trees, string lights, and soft lounge music set the perfect backdrop for sunset dinners and weekend brunches.
The menu features elevated seafood dishes with Mediterranean flair. Start with their Yellowfin Tuna Tartare, delicately seasoned and served with avocado and crispy wontons for texture and freshness. Another standout is the Charred Spanish Octopus, tender with a subtle smokiness, served alongside chickpeas and tangy preserved lemon for a balanced bite.
For mains, the Linguine alle Vongole is a favorite, featuring perfectly cooked pasta tossed with fresh clams, garlic, white wine, and chili flakes for gentle heat. Their Whole Branzino, roasted and served with olive oil, lemon, and herbs, is light yet deeply flavorful – a dish that transports you straight to a seaside Mediterranean village.
Pair your meal with one of their signature cocktails. The Nino’s Margarita is refreshing with just the right citrus kick, while the Beach Spritz combines prosecco with blood orange for a light, effervescent sip. They also offer a curated wine list focusing on crisp whites and rosés ideal for seafood pairings.
Nino’s Beach delivers attentive, friendly service, enhancing its refined yet approachable vibe. Whether you’re planning date night, a birthday dinner, or weekend brunch with friends, this restaurant offers an unforgettable dining experience with fresh flavors and waterfront elegance that make it a standout in Port Washington.
