New American Restaurants in Nantucket, MA

“Our waitress was fantastic, the food was great, but the hostess couldn’t have been any worse, she was downright nasty and unaccommodating.“

“Oran Mor does a lot of things very well. Service by Trevor was excellent - thorough, friendly, and unobtrusive. The halibut and pea shoot and wildflower salad were particularly good and beautifully presented. Cranberry sorbet! (A little tart.) Music was lovely and at the perfect volume. It is cozy, beautifully decorated, a special dining experience.“

“I have been going to Nantucket for 30 years and this place has always had great food, friendly service and I always look forward to the piano player.“

“I had the most delightful breakfast experience at this cozy, bustling neighborhood gem. The atmosphere inside is incredibly welcoming and full of charm, making it feel like a true local secret. My French toast was cooked to absolute perfection, thick and fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness, and the coffee was hot and constantly refilled by the super attentive staff.“

“Topper’s is one of those places that perfectly captures the elegance and charm that Nantucket is known for. We stopped by to experience the hotel bar and beach patio, and it quickly became one of the highlights of our evening.

From the moment we arrived, the staff was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and engaging. The level of service and attention to detail was exactly what you would expect from a top-tier establishment. The atmosphere felt sophisticated without being pretentious, making it easy to relax and enjoy the experience.

We enjoyed cocktails while taking in the beautiful surroundings and then spent time exploring the beach patio as the sun began to set. The views were stunning, and the peaceful coastal setting created the perfect backdrop for a memorable Nantucket evening.

While it’s a little off the beaten path, the journey is absolutely worth it. Once you arrive, you’re rewarded with a beautiful property, exceptional hospitality, and a setting that encourages you to slow down and savor the moment. We would gladly return on our next visit to Nantucket.“

“The atmosphere is amazing, the staff is great. Food drinks are just done to their perfection. It's just cozy inside or outside“

“Great food and cocktails!“

“We love the food and the vibe at Slip 14! It’s so nice to have an excellent but casual restaurant on the water. Teddy makes the BEST Bloody Mary’s we have ever had! The energy is so great with Teddy’s personal playlist on Spotify, football or golf on the TV. Between Teddy, Brennan and Timmy they are a fun tag team welcoming everyone that walks in. Between the 3 of them at lunch on Sunday Funday you can’t miss having a great time. We loved the scallop roll which is so unique, smash burger and the fish tacos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“An amazing dinner tonight at the bar - didn’t take pictures of it all or get the bartenders name but they were all amazing! Super attentive, helpful at deciphering the menu and every option felt like you couldn’t go wrong from the fresh/locally grown food and very different menu items. Bartenders made my night after a very long and stressful workday. I would absolutely come back and maybe even will tomorrow, especially for their amazing sounding desserts!“

“I had an incredible dining experience at this beautiful waterfront spot. The views of the water are absolutely stunning, especially as the sun begins to set and all the lights reflect on the ripples. The seafood was incredibly fresh and cooked perfectly, and sitting outside on the deck made the whole meal feel like a special vacation treat.“

“Best place,best atmosphere,best workers,excellent food and staff! My favorite place always, everyday and any day 🥰🥰🍋‍🟩🥂🍸“

“Group of 6. Main dining room, very nice vibe. Food was outstanding - best in Nantucket. Service was solid. Only mild disappointment was the unexpectedly large bill at the end. They include an auto 22% gratuity on groups of 6 or more. Thats fine and we’d have gotten there anyway but would have preferred to be told that, either by the waitress or on the menu. The charge slip includes the all inclusive bill plus an additional line for more tip, which i find bad form. Its a great restaurant- just be up front.“

“I have been going to Nantucket for years and finally found Island Kitchen this past August; one of the best meals to be had on the island. We ate outside by the bar and despite a bit of rainy weather; we throughly enjoyed the atmosphere and cuisine; the service was excellent and we have earmarked a return visit this August.“

“This is a perennial stop for us yet exceeded our expectations this year. The menu selections combined flavors and textures in unusual and creative ways with great success. The roasted carrot salad was spectacular, as was the “Nantucket Reds” appetizer. The appetizer portions and lemon poppet dessert portions were on the small side but the duck entree was substantial and also a hit. We had friendly, attentive service by Archie and his support staff, and enjoyed the comfortable window bench seating and quiet, attractive indoor space. The outdoors is covered and equally appealing.“

“I just had the best 70th birthday dinner here! Chef Joseph created a delicious menu and paired wines. The Company Popovers accompanied a crisp Caesar salad, Wagyu beef and a lobster tail with smashed potatoes & broccolini was the entree, rounded out with “The Marriage of Crème Brûlée + Chocolate Mousse” and Dows Fine Sherry Port. The service was spectacular (thank you Johnny) and the intimate and cozy atmosphere made for a wonderful experience for my party of 10. I recommend this place for a singular and memorable experience!“

“With beautiful heated outdoor seating, fabulous creative drinks, delicious food, and excellent service, we’ve added this to our summer list—one of my favorite dining experiences on Nantucket.“

“A lot of investors are confused and go into deep research for a trusted and legit platform to trade and invest in. I was also looking for the best one until I read good reviews and recommendations about Mrs kathrine lucas, With her great skill of trading and mining made a good profit for so many in their trade account. I was amazed how happy many investors wrote good comments about her. I contacted her and invested with her with believe and trust just as the way she replied m“

“Love it there! Fun atmosphere“

“Awesome service. Great tasting lobster 🦞 roll and panini“

“I was looking forward to the reopening of a restaurant at this location and so happy to see the return of Easy Street; our party of six all enjoyed their meals; however this critic has nothing critical to say; I started with the clam chowder and frankly it was absolutely delicious, well stocked with clams and not overwhelming on the potatoes, the broth wasn't loaded with flour filler which was welcoming for a true Clam Chowder. Entree selection the Blackened Salmon dish; nicely prepared and presented and tasty and moist. I skipped dessert myself, but others shared a Crème Brûlée and definitely gave a thumbs 👍 up. Fresh coffee and I left with a satisfied party of six. Try the sushi menu; the selection was varied and according to my niece and nephew the bomb. The Smashburgers were as well given a 👍 thumbs up. I encourage everyone to give Easy Street a try on their Nantucket visits; it will not disappoint. Say hello to our gracious host Milan and his lovely wife and our wonderful server Valentine and the rest of the staff and a special thanks to the Chef and his staff for rounding out our experience. I can't wait for our next visit to the island. Bon Appetite“
