We had a great breakfast here. Of course, it’s Nantucket pricing, but that’s the whole island. I got the corned beef hash and it was unlike any other I’ve had. The corned beef was sooo tender and instead of using diced potatoes, they were almost mashed potatoes. Very good. Hubby got the huevos rancheros which had a really good sauce. He added an extra pancake too. The staff was very warm and kind. Seating was crowded but we really enjoyed our morning there.

Funky little spot with delicious made-to-order dishes. Innovative fare yet feels like home. The linguini with quahog clams were delicious—get the chocolate mousse dessert.

Saw the reviews so figured I would try it out. There was a short wait on a Sunday morning to get a seat. Place is small. Sat at counter. Had a guy wait on us, he seemed a little grumpy. In any case, I ordered the sourdough french toast and it was awesome. As were the sides. Overall it was a great spot to eat. I enjoyed the food. Coffee was also good.

Wow tucked away dining here it was like a breakfast show watching the two amazing chefs prepare food for a ton of people overflowing inside spurring out into a patio dining area outside. extremely busy tough location to park but absolutely amazing breakfast had scrambled eggs mixed with fresh broccoli potatoes and some light seasoning Curry with home fries wheat toast and of course a coffee with oat milk. Claire was my server we were sad at the bar and she did an incredible job set for one of the best breakfast I’ve ever eaten in Nantucket outside of cooking my own

I don’t think that I’ll be coming back here any time soon. This used to be one of my favorite restaurants on island, but they have fallen far behind. Even good food can taste bad when the service is so horrible. From placing our order to being served, it took over an hour. Our server was indifferent, chatting with the other servers while others were being served. She offered lame excuses when we asked what had happened to our order. When it finally arrived, it was cold and the portions were small. How expensive would it have been to increase the amount of grains and vegatables to proportionately accommodate the protein? The halibut had some good flavors to it, but ultimately the dish was quite bland. The cod was in a curry sauce no better than you could get from any Thai restaurant anywhere in the world and was overly spicy such that any subtleties of flavor from the ingredients could not come through. The blue fish chowder was delicious although it was more of a potato soup made with fish stock. The kale salad was also quite good, but nothing really memorable.Though the menu had promised a bread pudding, what we were served was instead two tiny confections that would have easily fit into a box of chocolates. Given the price point and given that we were charged $10 per glass for our BYOB wine, I feel totally taken advantage of. There are much more honest dining places elsewhere on island.

Coming under new ownership, this spot has remained a Nantucket staple. Fantastic to get fish that really tastes fresh. Strong menu left me struggling to narrow down my choices! I definitely was ready to come back and order anything I did not get to try. Good portions and a casual environment for dinner. Make sure to book ahead as this place is certainly popular. I am excited to see what is to come for this spot and the return of breakfast!

Where do I begin! The coffee was absolutely delicious, the blueberry pancake tasted so fluffy and light, and the food was delicious! we were so pleased with our breakfast and service. The bar was so pleasant to sit at! We are going back this weekend after someone recommend the huevos rancheros to us!

Food was fantastic. Sat outside. Inside too hot to eat, but they accommodated us on the patio which was lovely.

The pancakes are great here, and there is a pretty good menu, too. We came early in the morning, and there was only a little wait. The only reason I didn’t give this place 5 stars was because we thought the inside area of the restaurant was pretty loud and crammed. We were all kind of shouting at each other at the table over other people talking and the chef banging his tools. So, if you can, I would ask for a table outside if you’re looking for a more relaxed experience. Their back patio looked quiet and more spacious.
