“ An excellent dinner at Oran Mor! We loved the bay scallop pasta special, the fennel orecchiette, the pimento grits, and the carrot cake dessert. Very cozy restaurant and bar on the second floor. Great service from Charlotte, highly recommend dinner here on your trip to Nantucket. ”
“ Absolute must visit in Nantucket. A local favorite and one of the best restaurants, hands-down, not only in Nantucket but holding its own with great restaurants in New York and Miami. Wonderful ambience, charm and service. Exceptional dishes, creative cuisine, beautiful presentation, distinct local ingredients and flavors. ”
“ I think it's 4 stars. My partner thinks it's 5 so compromising to a 5. Overall, I think this place has great ideas but the execution is slightly lacking. The happy fizzy drink didn't taste of cardamom. It was also very alcohol forward. Roast oysters flavor was very good but a bit on the light side. When eaten with the milk bread it comes with (which was a bit undercooked) the bread overpowers(!) The flavor of the sauce Tomato salad was great. Fresh and refreshing. I would recommend that Fish tagine was a bit on the bland side. With the couscous, which was salted well, it works. Highly recommend the lobster pasta. Very flavorful. Tasty lobsters. It's mild and complex ”
“ If I could, I would put the Atmosphere in 6/5. The place itself is so nice, very old-style. What I mean is like there is a candle on each of the tables, and from the outside it looks like a normal house. And inside, there is a bar and just a dining area for people who are going to eat. Everything is wooden; the tables, the walls, the ceiling. Where I sat, instead of chairs, it was more like a couch. There were pillows and cushions, so it was very comfy. The service was so nice! Our waitress was really kind and patient. The food was really good for the price too. We spent around 300-400, for 3 people. I got the bison short rib. Super good! Smoky, juicy, perfect. All in all, go here if you want good food! ”
“ Honestly the pics should speak for themselves - 10/10! Food was amazing, and so was the service! Cannot wait to come back here again! We started with espresso martinis, followed by an app which was some type of tomato dish, then the truffle pasta and duck. For dessert we had the chocolate donut thing. YUM!!!! ”
“ What a great menu! It took us forever to pick few dishes. We ended up ordering truffle beet salad, orecchiette and bucatini to share, fish tajine and dandelion risotto. Everything was delicious with a beautiful presentation ”
“ WOW! What an incredible culinary experience! Best meal I have had on Nantucket! Homemade Pasta dishes are out of this world. The roasted oysters are amazing! A must try - from the moment the hostess greets you to the exquisite server and a hands on owner that walks the room and assists in the service - old school all the way! We were walking by and begged the hostess for a table, she worked hard to find us something a a very busty Friday night, we were so grateful as it was the best meal we experience on the island. ”
“ I cannot recommend this place enough! Honestly the best restaurant my fiance and I have ever been to. We’ve travelled around quite a bit but this place is special. The chef Edwin is talented, knowledgeable and so kind. Our waitress Whitney was so lovely and recommended her favorite dishes and dessert. She’s worked here for 5 summers so we happily listened and ordered many of the recommendations! The halibut and fluke were cooked to perfection. The dandelion risotto is in my top 3 favorite foods of all time. My fiance liked the risotto so much he ordered an entire separate side of it. The strawberry ice cream was so good it’s indescribable. 1000/10 recommend. The staff seem so happy to work here which speaks volumes! ”
