We ate at Girodani's in the family side of the restaurant yesterday, 8/19. OB was very busy, so I…read morewas surprised to see how easily we got in. That actually left me a little sus because it was around 5PM, dinner time. I ordered the calamari as an appetizer and the seafood pasta as an entree'. The calamari left something to be desired, it just need more flavor! They were crispy and tender, cooked perfectly, but definitely needed some seasonings. The seafood pasta, however!!!!! HON-T! that was on point. The Alfredo sauce was thick and creamy, the seafood was plentiful! There was plenty of lobster meat, scallops and shrimp, I ate too much, but I just couldn't stop.

Seems to be the only spot to pick up a slice in the area. Cheese pizza was very tasty and came out quick. Chicken tenders were made from processed homogenized chicken, so make sure you know what you're buying. This is not fresh all white chicken breast or an actual identifiable piece of a chicken - let alone the tenderloin. It's like a McDonald's chicken nugget... Processed meat pressed into a mold. Having said that it was hot and reasonably tasty with the honey mustard sauce

Nantucket is full of restaurants that primarily target the influx of tourists in the summer. Of…read morethose, only a small percentage are year-rounders, serving year-round Nantucketers, who tend to be more down-to-earth and less inclined to pay $30 for a sushi roll than the average fair weather islander. Kitty Murtagh's is one for the year-rounders. Tucked away on a small side street behind the mid-island Stop and Shop, this reliable old Irish pub is low key and pretense free, with a lovely patio for al fresco dining in fine weather. Indoors, there are pool tables and occasionally live music. The food is nothing earth shattering, but it's fairly priced and fairly good -- and the Irish menu items are fairly authentic. No surprise since co-owner John Keane is an Irish transplant who came to Nantucket in the late 1980s to work as a bartender at the Chicken Box, a semi-legendary live music venue a few doors down (where my BIL used to play with his band, incidentally). Keane and his partner, Caroline Montgomery, own not only Kitty Murtagh's, but also Queequeg's, Tree Bar, and Town, downtown mainstays. At a recent dinner, IRISH NACHOS ($15; Melted Cheddar, Bacon, Tomatoes, Scallion, Potato Skins) were well made, with a good balance of crisp potato skin, cheese and other toppings. You won't find Irish nachos on menus in Ireland, unless it's at an American pub. Like green beer and big parades on St. Patrick's Day, they're an American invention -- quite a tasty one, though, unlike most green beers I've had. More authentically Irish GUINNESS BEEF STEW ($20; Gravy, Root Vegetables, Mashed Potato, Dinner Rolls) was made with tender beef and carrots in plenty of gravy. It was particularly lovely to discover that the mashed potatoes that came with the dish were scratch made and quite delicious. It's hard for me to resist an IRISH FRY UP ($20; Eggs, Bangers, Rashers, Black & White Pudding, Charred Tomato, Irish Beans, Mushrooms, Fries), otherwise known as a full Irish breakfast, whenever I see it on the menu, even when it's dinnertime. Kitty Murtagh's version was fairly good. I loved the nicely pan-fried little disks black and white pudding, charred tomato, mushrooms, and eggs, which I requested over easy. Bangers had been a bit over boiled and the "Irish beans" were probably canned (tinned) Heinz baked beans, however. I have a number of Irish friends who enjoy the nostalgia of tinned baked beans, especially on buttered toast, but they're not my personal favorite. Fries were a stand-in for more traditional pan-fried potatoes. We were not overly fond of the IRISH CHICKEN CURRY ($32; Indian Madras Curry, Jasmine Rice, Mango Chutney), which was made with several times more untempered "curry powder" (aka garam masala) than there probably should have been. It was also weirdly and horribly sweet. We do sometimes enjoy the genre we think of as British-Indian food, e.g. the chicken curries you can find at just about any pub in London. I can only guess that the chef mis-measured the amounts of curry powder and sugar while making this batch. Our ten-year old insisted on ordering the GRILLED CHEESE & FRIES ($12) from the children's menu, which she found very much to her taste. I didn't try it, but it was made with amply buttered white bread and American cheese. She said it was good as Panera's, her paragon of grilled cheese. ;) Overall, it was quite a pleasant meal. We'll surely be back with the pup to sit on that pretty patio and try the shepherd's pie.

We won't be returning until the attitude and staff are changed. No meal is worth a bad cultural experience. My wife and I tried to eat here. My wife and I had disembarked the ferry in OB and heard about the Wave was new so we were excited and called. The woman on the phone said, yes we have availability come on over - we said we were in our way and would be there in 15 minutes. We arrive in VH 15 minutes later. My very pregnant wife waddles over to the hostess and it seems it's a different lady that tells her "do you have a reservation?!" With an attitude. We say "we just spoke with someone." The woman we spoke to then appears and says "yes" I told them it was ok. Then the other woman scolds her and says, well I just "reallocated" all the tables. Not possible anymore. So then they both point to the upstairs deck area across the way and say it's the bar area, go sit up there. My pregnant wife wasn't thrilled with all the distance and steps but said "ok" reluctantly but she had to use the restroom first. For any disabled person - my pregnant wife also has permanent mobility issues - the restroom is down a step and outside in another section. We finally get upstairs and the guys up there said they had reservations starting soon so we had to check with the hostess. Maybe we got profiled in my T-shirt and shorts, but I can guarantee we would have tipped better than the old stodgy people walking in. We probably would have just stayed the but attitude of the staff was just a massive turn off. If an establishment can't put out a welcoming culture, what else aren't they paying attention to with the meal. Off to Beach Road or to try out The Jetty on our Tuesday evening arrival.
