Nantucket, Massachusetts — Restaurants

Straight Wharf Restaurant

Fine Dining

Getaway Unpacked Edit

The island's most seasonally committed restaurant — a harborside fine dining room where the prix-fixe menu changes nightly to reflect whatever is freshest from sea and farm, with harbor views from recently expanded outdoor seating and the kind of locally-embedded cooking that defines Nantucket dining at its best.

Why It Belongs on the List

The island's most seasonally committed restaurant — a harborside fine dining room where the prix-fixe menu changes nightly to reflect whatever is freshest from sea and farm, with harbor views from recently expanded outdoor seating and the kind of locally-embedded cooking that defines Nantucket dining at its best. Menus, hours, reservations, accessibility, and seasonal opening dates can change; confirm directly before making a special trip.

What Stands Out

  • Prix-fixe menu changes every night: the most seasonally committed restaurant on Nantucket
  • Deconstructed clambake: lobsters, clams, mussels, roasted potatoes — the canonical warm-weather order
  • Harbor views from outdoor deck: the finest fine dining position on the water
  • Bar transforms into a live gathering spot after dinner
  • Reservations open two weeks ahead — book promptly
