The Water Street Kitchen was such a great surprise. The service was absolutely phenomenal and the atmosphere was classic Cape Cod. Our cocktails were spot on—my wife had the Naked & Famous and I had the Last Word.
We shared the Black Bass to start, which was perfect for two and tasted incredible. For entrées, I had the Halibut and she had the Sea Scallops—both were outstanding and we cleaned our plates. Dessert was just as good with the espresso martini roll and homemade Cookies n’ Cream ice cream.
Everything from start to finish was amazing. We’ll be back. Highly recommend!

Wow! It has been quite a while since we’ve been blown away by a meal like our dinner at Water Street Kitchen. Service was impeccable and everyone seemed so happy to be representing the restaurant. Each dish had different levels of flavor and the ingredients were extremely fresh. We especially loved the heirloom tomato appetizer, haddock, scallops, homemade ice ream and galette. We drove a hour to dine were and our experience made the trip worth it. Definitely check out if you get the chance.

Water Street Kitchen is a foodies paradise: so many great and subtle flavours – you cannot pick your favourite dish. A group of 4 of us went for dinner – which was great as we decided to share and really got to sample the menu.
I really did love the the scallops and carpaccio the best – and the cocktails are amazing. A gem at Woods Hole that you should not miss!

The food itself was decent, but absolutely not worth the price given the poor service. Initially we were excited they added a table for our four legged doggo. Sadly the hostess was the best part of Water Street.
A hair was found in the Arctic char. While they did remove the dish from the bill — which we appreciate — the replacement took just as long to arrive as the original, and they left the same silverware that had been used on the contaminated plate.
For the high prices, you expect at least competent service. Sadly, that was not the case. Between the long wait to clean dirty dishes, lack of attention, and hygiene concerns, this place just isn’t worth it. There are better spots nearby — go there instead.

Water Street Kitchen delivers on the food front — well-prepared dishes with good flavors and quality ingredients that make it a worthwhile dining destination. Service was friendly but inconsistent; attentive at times and hard to reach at others. The atmosphere is pleasant enough but fairly casual and unremarkable — it doesn’t quite elevate the dining experience the way the food deserves. Overall a solid meal out, carried largely by what comes out of the kitchen.

We always reserve early each summer for our visit to the Cape. The haddock entree is back on the menu and is delicious (but $45!). The steak carpaccio was also very good. Be prepared to break the budget.

Dining at The Water Street Kitchen was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm, friendly service that made us feel right at home. The ambiance is cozy yet refined, perfect for a special night out.
We started our meal with the tinned mussels appetizer, which was a delightful surprise. The mussels were perfectly seasoned and incredibly fresh, setting the tone for the rest of our meal.
For the main course, we ordered the sea bass and the cioppino. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The sea bass was cooked to perfection, flaky and moist, with a wonderful blend of flavors that truly showcased the chef’s talent. The cioppino was equally impressive, brimming with fresh seafood in a rich, flavorful broth that we couldn’t get enough of.
One of the standout aspects of our evening was the homemade cocktails. Each drink was expertly crafted with a perfect balance of flavors. The creativity and quality of the cocktails added a special touch to our dining experience.
Overall, The Water Street Kitchen provided an unforgettable evening of exquisite food, exceptional service, and delightful cocktails. We can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu. Highly recommended!

I had an amazing experience at this place. The ambiance was incredible—the darkness was complemented by the overall atmosphere.
The food was incredible to taste. The flavors were fresh, high-quality, and phenomenally delicious.
The waitress was very polite, explaining everything we asked.
I wish we came back here again.

The atmosphere is very warm and inviting with a little artistic flare the decor was very thoughtfully done. For being a very busy evening, we were very well taken care of even when we were asking specific questions about drinks. Bartender came over and explained in detail what they had to offer amazing dishes, and great wine to pair with them.
