Ocean Club

Description:

• This oceanfront restaurant, perched atop a low cliff overlooking rocks and pink sands, is the result of a radical change in the restaurant lineup within the eateries at the Fairmont Southampton. The setting is an artfully minimalist, internationally modern venue surrounded with clusters of sea grapes and Norfolk Island pines. The panoramic view through the huge windows is the airy restaurant's most prominent feature.

  Expect a roster of urban, Pacific Rim cuisine at this place. Examples include steamed mussels with a coconut curry lemongrass sauce; tuna tartare with mango; spicy Asian chicken salad; rockfish with smoked paprika, Manila clams, and chorizo sausage; and pan-seared halibut in fennel broth with shiitake mushrooms.

  There's live entertainment Tuesday through Sunday.
