Alpina - Dering Harbor

Very interesting wine list and great vibe! Get the schnitzel.

The food, vibe and service were all A+ at Alpina. Everything we tried from the Swiss beer, to the entrees to the desserts was excellent. Extremely fresh food, kind and attentive staff and very cool and cozy atmosphere inside. Already can’t wait to go back!

AMAZING!!! ???? This place is SOOOO GOOD!!! The food is unique, different AND DELISH!!! Being new to the North Fork I had heard of this place but had never gone. Last weekend we went to the 2024 Chili cook off at the Greenport Brewery and Alpina was there! Their chili was SOOO GOOOOD, that my hunnnies Jeff and I knew we had to make a stop at their restaurant in Greenport first chance we got!! We just went this past Saturday for brunch and OMG the choices, the flavors AND the ambience so warm and inviting!!! You won’t find your typical menu items here but that’s what makes this place so special!! It’s an opportunity to try fresh food and ingredients in a totally different way! We left there feeling satisfied but not overall stuffed and I’ll chalk that up to the freshness of the food! Although I try to steer clear of carbs (all depending on my choices and what’s in front of my face ? of course) I had to throw that out the window and go with the dish with a large round hash brown topped with smoked salmon and a poached egg!!! The names of the dishes I don’t recall but you’ll get my point ?! My hunnnies went with a dish with the most delicious mushrooms topped with an egg (I think) and onions!! We also ordered onion soup where they actually warm a particular cheese on the side and then come over and top your cup of soup with the cheese!! Because I’m a cheese lover I requested more!! I’ll add both pics so you see the difference! We also ordered a side of a bacon slice which was the real deal!! PLUS of course because it was brunch I chose my usual alcoholic companion ? ?? which happened to be a martini they have already prepared that is topped with a red chili oil! For that I had 2 ???. Overall SO HAPPY we found this place!! We live in Laurel, but definitely will be back to try the other items on the menu! They serve brunch Saturday and Sunday so want to make a point to try their dinner menu ???. PS they also have a huge bar that spans the whole side of the restaurant in case you are looking for that! All in all DEF RECOMMEND!!! ??????

Great, inventive brunch menu. The duck confit with duck egg on top was perfect winter fare as was the homemade Swiss sausage with red cabbage. The only drawback is that the restaurant is pretty cold and drafty, so if you go when it's cold, be sure to dress in layers.

Awesome bar, really interesting and fun mixed drinks on the menu! Great ambiance as well.
