The cheesecake was rich, creamy, and absolutely divine. The carrot cake was also delicious, though I would've loved a bit more frosting. We also tried a white cake that was dense and reminiscent of a classic wedding cake. But ohh, the cheesecake, the clear winner. The shop itself is adorable, with a whimsical vibe and friendly staff . We enjoyed our first visit so much, we went back the next day! The selection was a bit different on day two so I am glad we gave it another whirl. One of my favorite touches was the exterior--those cupcake cutouts in the fence are just too cute! This bakery is perfect for treating yourself. --- Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to add!

Just wondering when I'm going to get the rest of my chicken on my Bahn Mi sandwich??…read more I ordered the salmon bahn mi and substituted the salmon for chicken which resulted in me receiving a half piece of chicken cutlet which didn't even fill the bun. And on top of that, the price of the sandwich was the same for the chicken as it would have been for the salmon. I guess on Martha's Vineyard, the price of chicken is the same as the price of salmon. Place is a total rip off and has been going down hill for years, stay away!

Cute general store! We stopped in to pick up lunch on the way to Larsen's because I don't eat…read morelobster. The store has a good selection of groceries but I was there for the prepared foods. Lots of choices for salads, sandwiches and ready to heat meals. I opted for the Greek salad and a slice of veggie pizza. I was a little disappointed to find out the veggies on the pizza were just tomatoes, so basically a Margherita pizza with pesto. The salad was fresh and had a good dressing on the side but I thought the pizza was only ok. Still a great grab and go option.

UNTIL they texted me before my birthday giving me a $5 reward. I thought, well, it was great last year, why wouldn't we return? This year we were in a bit of a rush, had two rowdy kids with us, and it was still such a slick operation that we were in and out and on time for our movie. We also tested their takeout game on the ferry home after a failed Porto Pizza attempt. We literally won't even bother with anyone else next year. El Barco is king!

Lemon Press is exceptional for its hospitality. At dinnertime in the downstairs dining room, black…read moretea is brought for the table as soon as you sit down, along with rock sugar and dates. As our beautiful (and possibly Persian-American) server explained, this tea is a symbol of welcome in Persian culture. You hold a bit of rock sugar in your mouth as you drink your tea, allowing the sugar to dissolve slowly, and follow it all up with a bite of sweet date. It's a beautiful act of cultural sharing and hospitality that nourishes one on so many different levels. Food at Lemon Press is meant to be shared. There is a section of dishes "for the table" that comfortably feed two. And there are small plates and sides that are meant to accompany. We chose two small plates and two large plates, which was plenty of food for our group of four. The ROASTED CHARRED CAULIFLOWER ($23; almonds, brown butter, golden raisin, caramelized cauliflower foam, crispy kale) small plate was nothing short of phenomenal. There were wonderful textural contrasts: crisp kale; firm, but yielding slivers of almonds; tiny, tender cauliflower florets. There was fragrant brown butter and delicately sweet, caramelized cauliflower foam. We have had some very, very good cauliflower preparations in our lives, including Balaboosta's fried cauliflower with currants and pine nuts, Miznon's whole roasted cauliflower with sel gris (even better with tahini sauce), and creamy roasted cauliflower soup (my favorite recipe to make at home). But Lemon Press's roasted charred version was, we all agreed, probably the best preparation of cauliflower we can remember having, something that would not be at all out of place at Eleven Madison Park. Our other small plate, a northern Iranian dish called MIRZA GHASSEMI ($19; smoked eggplant, tomato, garlic, turmeric, egg, barbari bread), was also well made, a well executed traditional preparation. It was creamy, rich, nourishing, with all the hallmarks of a perfect comfort food. The Progeny thought it was too strongly flavored to eat by itself, but it paired perfectly with golden-crusted, sesame-flecked barbari bread. We found our small plates to be stronger than our larger, shared plates. They were sadly out of the duck fesenjoon on our visit. (I'd been looking forward to trying this dish since our visit earlier in the summer.) In its place, we ordered the SHORT RIBS & CHIPS ($54; house salad, za'atar fries). Flavors were vibrant, the meat glazed with something sweet and salty -- but the flanken-cut short ribs were largely fat and gristle. The salad was wonderfully fresh, the fries crisp. The KHORESHT GHORMEH SABZI ($54; lamb shoulder, burnt herbs, red kidney beans, dried lime, tahdig) was a traditional northern style, made with slow-cooked tender lamb; spinach and not just herbs, I think; and the unmistakable sour/bitter/umami flavor of limu omani (dried lime). There was a pretty circle of tahdig (sort of the equivalent of socarrat) and saffron rice to accompany. The Fambly noted the strong resemblance to north Indian saag gosht -- no surprise given the strong historical influence of Persian culture in north India, both through Persianized Mughal invaders and Nader Shah's later invasion. The amchoor (green mango powder) used in saag gosht even somewhat recalls limu omani. We declined dessert, since we had to get back to the pup -- but the check came with four lovely macaroons, served on coffee beans, another gracious touch. We have become so very enamoured with Lemon Press over their years. Cousins and co-owners Darya Afshari Gault and Rachel Afshari have brought in the talented South African chef Lyall Frosler, who beautifully executes Persian, Persian-influenced, and non-Persian dishes. They've honed a deep sense of hospitality, rooted in a very ancient, very beautiful culture. We feel so lucky and grateful to have this food on Nantucket!

We visited this place for our last meal before heading off Nantucket. We avoided it previously…read morebecause it was labeled as "touristy " but the reviews looked good so we went for it. It's busy but we got a table for 5 immediately at 10am. The options looked great. We got gluten-free avocado toast with an egg (bland and meh, I've had better), Turkish eggs (very good), LP. Breakfast (filling and tasty), açaí bowl with berries and honey (yum), midnight cold pressed juice, lemon ginger shot, iced matcha latte (too sweet), iced saffron cardamom (too sweet), iced latte (perfect). We were happy to end our trip here. The inside is summery with low and high tables near the bar. I had to ask for my drink twice because it appears they forgot it. The staff were friendly and apologetic. Loved it overall!
