“I am very excited to finally open my own restaurant,” noted Winston Lyons about Winston’s Bar and Grill. “The menu features all of my creations many with a special Caribbean flavor.”
Lyons, who has shared time in the kitchen at several East End favorites, including Bostwick’s, East Hampton Grill, East Hampton Point, and Turtle Crossing, is bringing a tasty Caribbean flair to the Hamptons with Winston’s Bar and Grill, which took over the former location of Nichol’s in East Hampton.
