Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at sea cliff on 3/21. We loved that the venue was different from the run of the mill ballroom we kept seeing when we were looking for a space. The windows overlooking the water, the outdoor cocktail hour space, the details in the architecture - it’s all beautiful and magical. The bride/groom suites and bathrooms were just redone and were perfect. We had so many people tell us that the cocktail hour and dinner were the best they’ve had at a wedding. Ian is absolutely amazing at what he does and handled every detail. He made sure that I didn’t have to worry or think about a thing the day of. They were detail oriented and thoughtful in decorating the space for us. The whole staff were so welcoming and friendly throughout. Choosing Sea Cliff was the best decision we could have made and we’re so thankful for their team, who made our day absolutely perfect. 1000% recommend.

I hosted my rehearsal dinner for my wedding at bird on the roof and without hesitation it was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding weekend. Leo and the team couldn’t be more helpful! They went above and beyond what I expected. They were available the entire year planning and made the event as smooth as possible. And besides the restaurant being the cutest place in Montauk, the food is also phenomenal. We couldn’t have received more compliments about the dinner and drinks. Most of our guests went back again before they left for the weekend because they wanted to try more of the items in the menu. I am so lucky to have found this restaurant, met Leo and team, and booked my event here! Take it from me, the best decision you’ll make if planning a wedding or event in Montauk is doing it at Bird on the Roof!! ps, try the spicy bird thank me later!

Choosing 360 East at Montauk Downs as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made. From the start, their communication style was incredibly accommodating, responsive, helpful, and kind. Hailee, who manages the venue, was a true powerhouse - she had a smile on her face the entire night and it was clear she loves what she does. The staff was equally as great, ensuring the whole planning process was a breeze and our special day could not have been more perfect. The quality of their work and value was stunning - the venue was beautifully managed, the food was incredible, and they had amazing in-house vendors that provided great service. We couldn't recommend 360 East at Montauk Downs more highly to any couple looking for an incredible wedding experience.
