    Great seafood, including a light crab bisque (most are too heavy). We had a novice waiter who couldn’t have been more earnest and hard working which made the evening complete.

    Our waiter David was fantastic! The team handled the full house very well with a smile. Food was good as always. Skip the back room if noise is a factor for you. The hostess happily moved us right away despite the crowd!

    Great evening. Food was excellent with a great ambiance. Luke, our server, was personable, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Highly recommend. Luke was excellent and upped the experience even more. Our favorite dish on the table, yes we tried each others, was the prime rib of pork entree.

    We were excited to try Nantuckets after reading great reviews and wanted to treat the family to a nice meal beyond the usual beach fare. Unfortunately, it didn’t meet expectations. Parking was tough, and our server seemed overwhelmed, which affected the service. The food was lacking seasoning and underwhelming for the price. We really wanted to enjoy it, but it just missed the mark.

    Great experience, server was very knowledgeable, everything from the apps to the main dishes were excellent. The famous chowder did not disappoint! They have a good kids menu as well - everyone left full and happy! Would highly suggest for nice night out either as a family or just a date night.

    This is a wonderful restaurant, it’s the total experience. Our server David was great. As usual the cocktails are always my favorite, great mixologist. Just wish you could get separate checks when you go with a mixed crowd. It’s our go to place!

    Our meal was wonderful from start to finish! The Rock fish was prepared to perfection. Our waiter was attentive but not pushy. Nantucket's is a perfect place for a special occasion but is not stuffy or pretentious which makes it perfectly suitable for the beach!

    Nantucket’s as usual was wonderful! My husband and I both had the Lobster Shepherds Pie. It was delicious. The 2 6oz tails were cooked perfectly. Our Server, Susie, was great as always. We definitely recommend this restaurant.
