Red Cat Kitchen is where bold creativity meets thoughtful, soulful food. From the very first bite to the last moment of the meal, it’s clear this spot is about more than just dinner — it’s about experience.
I started with the Island Fresca, a chilled soup that surprised and delighted me. Light, flavorful, and full of freshness. Definitely order it with the Boris Made the Focaccia — the name is fun, and the bread is perfectly herby and warm. My husband had the Blue Hill Maine Mussels, which were such a hit he ordered extra focaccia just to soak up the broth. I followed with the fish and corn risotto — creamy, rich, and full of late-summer flavor. It was all so well-balanced and thoughtful.
One thing I loved: you can watch the chefs at work. The open kitchen adds an energetic, almost theatrical feel to the night — you’re watching art happen in real time.
The atmosphere is definitely lively — expect a noisy dining room with close seating. It’s part of the charm, but something to be aware of if you’re looking for quiet conversation.
Another important note: the menu changes often, and modifications aren’t allowed on cocktails or menu items. I actually respect that — they make everything in-house, from their cocktail syrups to the sauces, so there’s a strong sense of integrity in what they serve. But if you’re picky or have specific needs, it’s something to know ahead of time.
And finally — the women’s bathroom. Yes, it deserves its own paragraph. The walls are adorned with Shel Silverstein’s “The Thinker of Tender Thoughts”, expressed in whimsical sketches that gradually transform a man’s head into a bouquet of flowers. The floral decals along the ceiling and the rustic wood vanity mirror give it a personal, poetic feel. I had to stop and take photos. It’s that thoughtful.
If you’re in Oak Bluffs and want a meal that feeds both your appetite and your imagination, Red Cat Kitchen should be on your list. Just come ready for a full sensory experience — noise, flavor, artistry, and all.

Excellent, excellent meal, the best we’ve had in Martha’s Vineyard! The risotto was delicious, the brussel sprouts were fantastic. We had the halibut, the salmon, the pasta, all were really great. Really tasty cocktails as well. The service was awesome, the chef is a really cool and the inside has a nice casual vibe. If you come for drinks, check out the nook with the couch seats by the bar!

Without a doubt ~ one of Martha’s Vineyard’s BEST experiences! Chef (and his glorious brigade of culinary masters) will WOW you with one-of-a-kind creations. Timothy’s cocktails are equally crafted to perfection with the most delightful ingredients & a skillful, considerate composition every damn time. Timothy will provide you with the kind of consistency, courteousness, and divine drinks you dream about…he is indeed a hidden treasure of the island! Jacob and the serving staff each bring a special something, too, and I promise you will want to return to see this extraordinary team, the next new & exciting spectacular menu items, and the latest lovely libations ~ all guaranteed to rock your world!!! After years at the Red Cat, I continue to be blown away. If you are on the fence, take a chance…the quality and attention to every detail will keep you coming back for much, much more. Hopefully, if none of this is enough, a photograph of my filfthy martini with fried chicken + fried tomato combo will help get you in their door ASAP 🙂

The food was immaculate! Really great dishes and drinks. I it’s not the biggest dining space, but we were comfortable and there for the food. We will be making an annual visit here whenever we’re on the island.

Probably the best food I’ve had on the island. Wife got the short braised rib and I got the chicken and waffles. Everything came out hot and fresh. Espresso martini was great and my beers were cold. Service was just fine but it was Saturday so it was packed. Make sure to get a reservation the day before or in the morning! We will definitely be back, but like everything in MV be ready to drop $100+ on dinner

Outstanding Vibes – A+ staff and hands down the most beautiful food and beverage on Circuit ave. Must have Brussels, and don’t sleep on the fried chicken. This brûléed Gold Bud Peach was sublime iykyk.

We headed to the Red Cat Kitchen on the recommendation of some local friends. It was very homey inside and has an open kitchen you can see the owner Ben in his element. We started with sharing a Caesar salad which I did not snap a picture of sorry! It was yummy though. Hubby ordered the Reliable burger and crinkle fries from the bar menu. No picture of the burger he devoured it!! Ha! I ordered the RCK fried chicken that came with whipped potatoes and brussels sprouts slaw. Sorry I just started eating and forgot to snap a picture before I started! Everything was great and we were stuffed!! I also tried the strawberry lemonade which was so tart and yummy!! Hubby had a Sam Adam’s lager. The wait staff was attentive and helpful. We enjoyed our dining here!

Had dinner here. The food is top class. Some discerning wines available and a few draft beers. My biggest criticism is that the music is very loud. It takes away from the atmosphere of the place. But hey if the music is too loud you might be too old.

While in Martha’s Vineyard I ate here, this was my first time having mussels out of the shell in a tomato broth vs the usual garlic/butter wine combo. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was perfect.

A local recommended this spot and it did not disappoint. Did not have a reservation but got seats at the bar. Nice open layout to the restaurant. Spacious bar with a good selection of drinks and spirits. Kevin the bartender was very attentive in spite of being busy.
Speciality old fashioned and Manhattan for cocktails. Both were very good. We ordered a couple of appetizers rather than meals.
Highly recommend the Brussel Sprouts. Great flavor and enough to share. The Shrimp and Crab cocktail had a good flavor but not stellar. We were surprised how small the shrimp were especially at $28. I would not recommend the shrimp.
Overall a great spot and would eat here again.
