A surprisingly disappointing experience at an upscale restaurant:…read moreI almost never leave negative reviews, especially for upscale restaurants, but my experience tonight was so far below expectations that I feel I need to share it. The Hen of the Woods appetizer was dry, brittle, and nearly flavorless -- more like straw than a thoughtfully prepared dish. Without the green peppercorns and Dijon mustard I happened to have with me, it would have been inedible. The Duck Confit was similarly disappointing: overcooked, dry, and again nearly impossible to enjoy without the condiments I brought. Service issues added to the frustration. The red Burgundy wine I ordered didn't arrive until nearly dessert, even after I asked another server to remind my server to bring it. Dessert came with only half a cup of decaf coffee and no cream, despite my request. Overall, I felt ignored rather than cared for. What should have been a highlight of my vacation became one of its lowest points. I truly hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously, because the experience did not match the level of quality or hospitality one should expect at this price point.

This isn't pretty, however the wait staff and manager handled it beautifully…read more Immediately upon entering you'll realize, it's LOUD. But hey, you're on Circuit Ave in Oak Bluffs. The next thing you'll notice is that the staff is very friendly and really trying to manage the chaos that is being caused by a chaotic kitchen. We were seated directly in-front of the kitchen, so we saw everything: - two or three wait staff anxiously waiting for orders in front of the service station (pick-up) area; - a chef continually looking at an inappropriate movie that was playing on a screen that was oddly positioned where the kitchen staff could view it (WHY) - a kitchen staff that was either doing nothing or working frantically - this is an indication of very poor management; - mediocre appetizers but passable - the entrées were ridiculously poor. I'll only describe mine to save time, but trust each of four were failures. The nerve to send to the table a beautiful piece of blue fin tuna that smelled like the gas used by a small propane gun, that had been partially burned - like on 1/2 of the fish. This shows zero respect for this beautiful creature or the people who ordered it. The lobster risotto that was beneath the fish was cold, lacked any flavor of lobster, and looked as though it had been thrown on the plate from across the room, and then to have the nerve to charge $60 + dollars is ridiculous. We of course requested to speak with the manager, who immediately came to our table, empathized and apologized, we felt heard. He then comped our entire meal which was very generous and appreciated. The chef then came over to apologize, and stated, "I'm so sorry, we dropped a pan and that threw everything off". WHAT? Buddy, we sat there and watched the chaos in your kitchen. The problemS, are not the result of a dropped pan. Apology appreciated, lame excuse was unnecessary and again demonstrated a lack of respect or intelligence. I may return alone, just to see if anything has changed or what show is on the TV.

So glad we found it ... on a very calm street... close to the park very little car traffic going by the outdoor patio! The staff greeted us warmly... welcomed our pup and seated us within minutes! A server greeted us instantly and took our drink order and even asked if we needed a nice fresh bowl of water for our puppy!! Extra Points just for acknowledging the fur-babies!! The lunch menu has an exceptional selection of seafood, fish, chicken and even a few beef dishes!! We ordered and the food was out hot and fresh within 10 minutes!! They even grilled a plain /no salt breast of chicken for our puppy too! Everything was delicious!! The fries that accompanied the sandwiches were out of this world! Usually never finish even half our fries but these were so good we finished one small bucket and nearly all of the second !! Definitely worth a try - casual, relaxing and delicious!!

We ordered the Charley on the Fence omelette--bacon, onion, mushroom, and cheese--and didn't leave a crumb. The Green Monster was also amazing, packed with asparagus, broccoli, spinach, and cheese. Of course we had to add the buttermilk pancakes with strawberries and blueberries, which rounded everything out perfectly. It's your classic brunch spot--nothing overly complicated or trying too hard--but the food is just really good. Solid portions, great breakfast options, and a nice waterfront setting. Definitely worth a brunch stop while in Vineyard Haven.

The restaurant is so cozy, the service is always quick and friendly, they have an outstanding tequila selection and the food is tremendous. I went with a big group of girlfriends on Wednesday night so we were able to sample a plethora of dishes from the current menu and let me tell you, they all slapped. We had the taleggio agnolotti, rabbit pappardelle, sunchokes, foccacia, halibut, scallops, pork schnitzel and duck leg cassoulet. Truly all of the food was outstanding but my favorites were the cassoulet, rabbit pasta and the halibut. The pork was good but do note that it is a positively enormous amount of food! We were so full that we almost skipped dessert but we had to try just a couple of things so we ordered the Dubai chocolate ice cream and the sticky toffee pudding which were both great but the ice cream was the favorite. I love Sweet Life and wish I could transport it home with me to eat there year round!

Ordered some drinks and relaxed. The Jasmine Blossom was refreshing and tasty. The old fashioned was your run of the mill old fashioned with essence of burnt butter taste to it. For apps, we had the half a dozen local oysters and the Hamachi Crudo. The oysters were tasty and fresh! I think the sauce was house made and I really wished I ordered a full dozen. The hamachi was fresh too! The honeydew was a bit underripe but all the other components were amazing. Oh we also got some focaccia bread. The bread is skippable, was not a fan. For our mains we had the gnocchi and scallops! The gnocchi came piping hot. Chunks of octopus spread throughout. Seasoned well, great texture. Gnocchi cooked just right. The real star was the scallops dish! Beautiful dish. Each scallop cooked in buttery goodness. Sitting on delicious sauce. The maitake mushrooms were cooked to perfection. Good crust and flavors. For dessert we shared the grapenut ice cream. Light essence of smoked maple flavor. Lots of crunch with the cereal. More crunch than ice cream. Service was a bit slow but very helpful and informative of dish options. Tasting menu available.

The Firebird cocktail I ordered delighted the entire crowd, since it comes out in a Polynesian head and is aflame.

After popping into some boutique shops we asked a local about places to dine and she recommended this restaurant. It is attached to a very nice hotel. We enjoyed the ambiance. The food was just okay. I had their Cod and my husband had the burger. We also shared their Bibb and Blue salad and Key Lime Pie for dessert. Service was excellent! We sat at one of their long communal tables. A bit on the expensive side but I think pretty standard compared to other restaurants we have dined at. I will say I wish they had a better wine and cocktail program. The wines I tried were just okay and not worth the price they charged. But still a good place to go for a last minute dinner. Cheers!
