    The Classic (w/ scrambled eggs, side of fruit and toast)
    Iris H.

    What a lovely place! My husband and I came for my cousin's wedding and stayed at Franklin Hotel next door. We came right at opening (8am) and naturally the service was quick. The food was delicious and tasted very fresh. Add this to your list of cute places to try!

    Pan Seared Sea Scallops (Dinner) , on a bed of lobster risotto!
    Carly C.

    This was my favorite meal on my June 2023 trip to Edgartown. There were only two other parties that Tuesday night so it was very quiet. It's a farm-to-table restaurant, and we could see the micro greens growing on the counter when we entered. I'm gluten free and the whole menu is labeled, with most dishes GF by default. Everyone at my table got the tomato soup("Today's Delicious Soup") and no one could stop bringing up how good it was, even into the next day. Two of us got House Salads which the server said were personal size, but they came out huge so we shared them family style. Those were good but in a standard way. My mother said the Salmon Cakes (nightly special) were also good, and my boyfriend who is a big meatloaf guy said theirs was excellent! A friend who is very knowledgeable about produce and maintains a strict diet ordered the Farm Share, reporting that the veggie cakes were the BEST HE'S EVER HAD. I tasted some and have to agree. The texture reminded me of a sweet sesame ball and I freaking love those. Even my boyfriend who is anti-vegetables liked them (they came with his meatloaf). I got the Pan Seared Scallops and they were delicious. It was a generous portion sitting on a bed of risotto with lobster chunks that absolutely stuffed me, though the risotto could've been creamier ;) We were all so full that dessert was out of the question, but I did order a chamomile tea to-go. The brand was Stash Tea and I was expecting something organic, but that's OK. I will 100% be back to Hank's the next time I'm anywhere on this island.

    French toast

    Top Tier, easily one of the best experiences for eats. The food tastes fresh, clean, and delicious, I've eaten here multiple times a week and I've never been let down. my go to for breakfast is the chilmark omelet or the famous crunchy French toast. They serve good coffee! the atmosphere is relaxed and cozy. The staff are kind and always welcoming. It should be a must on anyone visiting food tour and It's definitely in the running for the best on the island!

    Chicken BLT Sandwich (Lunch)

    Came here for lunch. Sat at table in the screened porch. Had a very lovely time & great service. I had the Chicken BLT & loved it! I would recommend this place & would gladly come back..

    pan seared halibut with mushroom risotto and spring peas
    Elizabeth S.

    A great spot for dinner with a parking lot which is rare for Edgartown. The service was very attentive and friendly. My meal of cod was fresh and delicious however the side that it was served over was a bit over the top with multiple flavors and vegetables. I think the chef was trying too hard to be creative. It probably was just me as I tend to enjoy different tastes and creative meals. I definitely recommend.

    I have been coming to Marthas Vineyard since I was born 32 years ago, but I just started going to Lucky Hanks over the course of the last 2.5 years. I have only had their breakfast so I cant comment on their lunch or dinner, but I am a Food Blogger that is located in South Florida and I must say this is my GO TO breakfast spot when I come on the island every summer.This was my moms first time at Lucky Hanks as she hasn't been to the Vineyard for almost a decade now so I knew I had to bring her to try out this fabulous spot. I had the Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes with a side of fresh fruit to share, My mom had the Veggie Omelette with home fries! She absolutely loved it just as much as I do! Its a quaint little breakfast spot that is very family friendly and they aim to please. Highly recommend this delightful area!

    Vineyard Benedict (Breakfast)
    Morgan K.

    Get the Benedicts. They are so good, especially the lobster was incredibly fresh and tasty. I also liked that the home fries are made of potato and sweet potato. The servers were friendly and the ambiance of the restaurant is very quaint and charming.

    Bloody Mary
    Grace K.

    I loved sitting in the back screened in porch! My Florentine Benedict was delicioussss!! My Bloody Mary wasn't amazing, but after that and the Bellini I definitely walked out of brunch a biiiit tipsy! The staff was veryyy attentive (take that as you will). There was definitely a nice homey vibe to the place and I ate every bit of my brunch!

    ON THEIR YELP AMENITIES

    *DO NOT EAT HERE DURING A PANDEMIC* Imagine my surprise when my husband and I needed a lunch place before our flight off the vineyard and Lucky Hank's manager ended up yelling at me. Our friends had called Lucky Hank's to make sure they were open and we arrived to an empty parking lot. Thinking it was closed, I ran (because we were short on time) into the quiet restaurant with no customers and a waitress sweeping and a hostess standing near the kitchen. Since I am immunocompromised I asked the waitress if she would wear a mask while serving us (all four in our party had masks on). She said that they didn't have any masks and I said that I had some in my car and would she wear one if I got it. She nodded. I ran out to my car and rifled through my luggage to find a new, unused mask. I brought in the KN95 mask and put it on the counter where food is given out to waitstaff when the manager behind the counter, who I hadn't even seen before, yelled at me and said, "I'm not going to tell my staff to mask! We don't have to do that here! You can't tell my staff what to do!" I was shocked. I actually thought he was going to apologize for not having masks on hand. He was quite belligerent, yelling at me. I explained that the waitress said that she would mask and that was the reason I spent time in my luggage getting a fresh mask for her. Had she simply said, "No, I don't feel comfortable wearing a mask." Or just plain, "I don't want to wear a mask." I would not even have gone out to my car to look. The manager went on and on about how there's no policy that makes him ask his staff to put on a mask and they have a right not to wear a mask. I was shocked how rudely I was treated. I didn't "make" her wear a mask (obviously). My friends were so apologetic about suggesting this restaurant. They did mention they saw the same waitress sneeze and wipe her nose with her hand, without stopping to wash her hands. During a time of rapidly rising numbers of Covid infections on the vineyard--a time for those who perform public facing work to be more, not less, vigilant of personal hygiene and to act responsibly to protect of the most vulnerable among us. A simple request to ask a sneezing waitress to mask during a pandemic doesn't seem like too much to ask. I wonder how they handle substitutions. Thank God we left... Good luck to those who eat there...

    Lovely local breakfast, lunch and dinner spot with a charming screened in porch. Food speaks of the heart and the service is with a smile. Pro tip. Wash down your breakfast of local eggs with fresh orange juice. Try the housemade sausage. Cheery and fun.

Something we didn't know. Bread was worth it, would have liked more transparency there. Drinks are great. I forgot the name of the cocktail I ordered but shoutout the bartender.

This time we went with friends, which meant I got to sample a little bit of everything -- the short ribs, wok-fried lobster, and a massive slice of carrot cake that took me two days to finish at home. We also enjoy getting dressed up to come here since they've got the white tablecloths my wife looks for when she's sipping her drink -- so don't show up straight from the beach in flip-flops and a tee. The vibe is always relaxed but elevated, the food and drinks are on point, and the service never misses. That's why we keep coming back.

The oysters were amazing. We ordered the fisherman's platter which included onion rings, fries, fried haddock, fried clams, fried shrimp, fried scallops, and coleslaw. Every single item was delicious. I was expecting to not like at least one of them, but they were all so good! The batter was perfect, well seasoned and so crispy. I still think about this platter all the time.

    On this episode of eating my way through Martha's Vineyard, we stopped at Square Rigger, one of the…read moreisland's well-known staples. All I wanted that day was some fried shrimp and clam strips -- and for me, the strips are key because they skip the extra parts you get with whole clams. Unfortunately, they were out of clam strips, so we went with fried shrimp, fries, and lobster bisque. Since I had to share with my wife, I asked for extra shrimp -- but heads up, it's $3 per shrimp. Not complaining, just letting you know. The lobster bisque came out hot and creamy, but I was hoping for a bit more depth of flavor and a little more lobster meat and a little less bisque. The shrimp were tasty and fried well, but personally, I prefer mine butterflied for that extra texture and presentation. What stood out most, though, was the service. Friendly, quick, and attentive, which matters a lot when you're trying a local favorite. Overall, Square Rigger delivers a solid experience, but I left wishing for just a little more -- especially when you're at a place with that kind of reputation. Verdict: Good shrimp, great service, but I'll be back hoping for those clam strips next time.

A member of the family had requested this location for her birthday dinner. The person who answered the phone "Idk. It's Friday night. I don't have time for this. It's busy." This should have been our first red flag. A separate conversation and call at another time, the GM asked over the phone if we'd like a cake or something special brought in. Very thoughtful. "Yeah we'd love that! Thank you!" When we arrived at our reservation time, the table had to be rearranged while the party waited. Our party was 8 people. When we inquired about the cake, no one present had any idea what we were talking about. They kindly offered to put a sampler dish together which we accepted but all other food and drink took so long, we cancelled it because we just wanted ultimately just wanted to leave. This is a steak house. A few people at the table ordered steaks with a medium center. Plates were brought out and we were advised the steaks had a medium. Every single steak was completely grey inside(well done). There was not a spot of pink inside. We didn't ask for a replacement steak, we just let them know so they would be aware for future steaks and someone else's future steak! We didn't bother asking for the replacement steak because it already took incredibly long for us to get our food and we were hungry. The waitress never apologized. She didn't look like she wanted to be there and was awkwardly hovering between the 2 tables they had filled. Two new steaks were brought out which we thought was nice but it was also suspiciously fast considering our previous long wait. We cut into the new steaks, almost completely raw. There was a man that poured water for us when we sat. He was the only one that looked like he enjoyed working there and showed any real customer service. The menu says 8oz sirloin and instead you get a 10oz New York strip. A larger piece sounds good but it's not what we asked for when we were ordering our food. If you're going to serve a different cut and size, why would you not change your menu? Or at least let customers know when ordering. Drinks were HEAVY. Can't complain about the quality of liquor. The drinks would be put on the table and take almost 10 minutes to get the next drink. The bartender was kind a remixed one of our drinks when we asked to sweeten it. Just wish drinks came out faster. The other food was great! We had pastas, salmon, vegetables, and mashed potatoes. They were very tasty. If the service, and steaks were better, this place would be recommended as it had beautiful flavor. The steak would have been perfect too if they knew how to cook it!
