Scott Sartiano unlikely to return to the Hamptons after fraught summer season

The Hamptons have beaten Scott Sartiano into submission already, it seems.

Having conquered New York City's high-end nightlife scene, Sartiano ventured out East for the first time this summer — with the intention, we're told, of putting down roots in the community that would remain for generations.

But after a single summer of doing battle with the entrenched interests of the monied enclave, it looks like he's already had enough.

Sartiano started his career with boisterous late-night clubs including 1OAK and Butter.

But he's built a blue-chip reputation with new downtown spots like the buzzy restaurant Sartiano's and Soho members club Zero Bond.

He dipped a toe in the briny waters of Long Island this summer with a pop-up version of Sartiano's at the historic Hedges Inn in East Hampton.

But the club king faced a summer of headaches, from an alleged "harassment campaign" by cops to "heat from the local government."

Sartiano let the seasonal lease lapse, and while a source told us it's "up in the air" whether he'll try his luck next year, it seems unlikely to happen.

"He wanted to build a legacy for his family out there," said another source.

"The space was iconic. It could be in his family for many generations."

Sartiano initially wanted to open an outpost of Zero Bond, the private club that counts Mayor Eric Adams as a devotee.

But after pushback from concerned locals and East Hampton Village Mayor Jerry Larsen, Sartiano wound up opening a restaurant in mid-July.

A source told us the concession was meant to show he had good intentions.

"They were going to do the restaurant and show the village that they are good people," we're told.

"Instead what then happened is they got noise complaints and fines. The town will say it's warranted, and Sartiano will say it was targeted and that they tried to shut them down."
