New Restaurant in Town, What Do You Think?

Highway Diner & Bar recently opened in Wainscott to rave reviews.

The new restaurant is, as the same suggests, on Montauk Highway, just west of the Wainscott village shops. You'll find it next to the big tank in front of the Veterans of Foreign Wars building.  Formerly Rugosa, the restaurant had been empty since Oct. 2011, though showed signs the interior was being redone over the summer. 

Already, we're hearing good things:

On East Hampton Patch's Facebook page, we were told the following:
