A Nantucket staple saved by the amazingly talented Chef Colin Bixby! Our server Anna was fantastic and the food was the best we had while on Nantucket, cant wait to go back next summer!

Beautiful, intimate space and incredible food. Perhaps one of the best meals I have had that I can remember. From the salad through dessert, everything was perfect. I loved the homey atmosphere, wonderful service and BYOB from the wine store next door. Note that they are cash only, so bring cash. I got the halibut, tuna crudo and garden salad. Hubby shared apps and got the burger. All around wonderful experience- thank you!

The atmosphere of this restaurant is amazing. It is quaint and beautiful in the gorgeous Sconset setting. Most of the food was good. We didn't care for the licorice flavoring of the mussels, the chicken was a little dry, and the lava cake didn't ooze lava like it is supposed to, but the rest of the food was good. The biggest issues came when we got the bill. We were charged a corkage fee, which was not explained to us at reservation and was not on the website. They even charged us the fee for our two 16-year-olds who were present, and clearly, did not drink. They did take that off after we pointed it out. Later, I found some reviews saying that there isn't a corkage fee if the wine is purchased in the adjacent wine store, but we did purchase our wine there and were still charged. Nobody asked us where it was purchased. The bill given to us did not show that gratuity was added, so we tipped based on the total shown, which means that our waitress was tipped over 40%. ( I guess we should have gotten our calculators out and did the math ourselves to see that they had already added it.) We called the next day to tell them of the error. They said that we could come back, and they would provide a refund for extra tip; however, they called back and said that they reconsidered and would not refund the additional tip. They said that it would not be fair to the server. Although I agree with that, they could have refunded us from the restaurant's profits - heck, they charge people to open (not even pour!) wine that they didn't provide. They certainly have more than enough! At any rate, we will not be returning to this restaurant. There are many other restaurants on the island that had better food and better customer service. Try the Club Car - the food, especially the risotto, was AMAZING!
