Waterfront Vegetarian Restaurants [Long Island]

Does anyone know of a waterfront restaurant in Long Island that offers a large selection of fresh fish (not shellfish) and/or vegetarian foods? Most of the places on the water are big on burgers and steaks.

    Long Island is a long island. What area? Out here on the East End we like:

    Cowfish

    Canal Cafe

    Cedar Beach Bar and Grill

    Chowder Pot Pub

    Rumbar

    Trumpets on the Bay

    La Plage

    Our daughter is vegan (the Hezbollah of vegetarians) and she loves all of these places.
    All waterfront too!!

        Thanks! Next time I'm out East I'll give them a try. Know any places on the North or South shore (Nassau).

          Back in the day we went to Steve's Pier 1 in Bayville. I don't even know if it still around but there has to be something in that lovely location.
          Otherwise try Freeport. There are several waterfront restaurants there.

            Prime, in Huntington, both fancier and a casual dining deck. Walls Wharf in Bayville, I think Steve's Pier 1 is gone, or the other place is. The most perfect place for everyone to get what they like, including vegetarians is the mediterranean style food at Fatfish in Bay Shore right on the bay. Love it.

            Oops! Chowder Pot Pub is gone!!!
            Billy's by the bay in Greenport is good.
            Turquaz on the Peconic bay has great fresh fish specials. Call ahead!

            If you're looking for a seafood place with veggie choices, you should rename this thread by hitting the report button and alerting the mods. Lots of places to choose from, and by adding Long Island (I used report to suggest that; it's a BIG state), and not limiting the choices to solely vegetarian places, folks who've been to w'front seafood places with veggie options might be responsive.
