    I have eaten several times at Nantucket's Reef. My husband thinks the seafood is outstanding, and fresh. As a vegan there is very little choice on the menu for me. I go because he likes it.

    As usual, outstanding food and service. The addition of Jambalaya and the return of the tilapia were a welcome additions to the menu. Additionally, the wicked mussels were a great way to start the meal.

    Nice luncheon options. The fish tacos were delicious, The waitress was very accommodating and helpful. I would recommend adding simple vegetable options to the lunch menu for those who want to avoid fries or coleslaw. I will definitely return.

    I asked our waitor Max, who were extremely busy, if he could substitute the raw oysters for Oyster Rockefeller. This item wasn't on the menu but Chef Manuel was able to make a dozen for our dinner party!!! Great service and smiling faces.

    We each got a salad with crab cake; one gluten free. Absolutely delicious and a very plentiful size crabcake atop a plentiful salad.

    We’ve eaten here several times and today was a little disappointing. Our server was great but usually the manager comes over to check in but not today. The clams were soggy but the rest of the food was good. I will choose something else on the menu next time

    We arrived a half hour early. It was very busy and we were seated in an empty back room that was too cold. After about 10 minutes we got up and were able to be seated in a warmer room. Now much more comfortable we ordered lunch. Two of us ordered deep fried scallops ( delicious and the main reason for coming here) and my wife ordered a lobster roll after I had asked if the lobster was fresh and never frozen. The lobster was tough and chewy and basically ruined our lunch ( wedding anniversary 66 years) . We complained and the lobster roll was replaced with a second choice. The delay in getting the second choice destroyed the whole atmosphere of the lunch. We will come back but will never order a lobster roll again!
