The island's most celebrated restaurant: upstairs is white tablecloths and twinkle lights in an 18th-century sea captain's home; downstairs is a glam-rock speakeasy with neon and leopard print. The wok-fired two-pound lobster is essential.
Why It Belongs on the List
Atria occupies an 18th-century sea captain's house on Edgartown's Main Street and operates as two entirely different restaurants on two floors. Upstairs is the formal dining room — picket fences, fairy lights, white tablecloths, New American cuisine executed with precision. Downstairs is the Brick Cellar Bar — neon art, leopard carpet, and burgers alongside a cocktail list. The two-pound wok-fired Island lobster in crispy tempura batter is the signature dish and among the best things eaten on the island. Book weeks ahead in season.
