One of the best restaurants on Nantucket. We had the shishito peppers, crab fried rice is to die for. Tuna poke bowl is amazing... too. Follow me on social media at @acknatural. Nantucket?s cannabis Dispensary Read more

Our very first visit to Nautilus in Nantucket did not disappoint. Abby was lovely and Sean our waiter was fabulous. Started out... with The Golden Goose cocktail and loved it. All the food was great, including Manny's Scallion Pancakes, Gilled Pork Riblets,Steamed Pork Buns and our absolute favorite dish, the Vietnamese Beef Tataki Salad.What a great place!! Read more

Hard to go wrong with the range of bites available on the menu, but the crab fried rice was quite fantastic. Definitely explore... the sake list to complement your meal, and I've included pictures of the pork belly bao, street corn, monkfish bites, andcarpaccio (alas, we feasted on the fried rice before pictures).

We went again this year and were not disappointed. Each dish we had was genuinely better than the one before. The fried oyster... tacos, soft shell crab buns special, and Thai lobster curry were out of this world. And the staff, especially our server, Aria,and the sommelier were incredibly helpful. If you can get a reservation... it's a must-go. From a year ago...Simply one of thetop 2 or 3 restaurants on the island. The cocktails are amazing (try the Tequila Mockingbird) and the food is second to none. Wearrived around 9 and were able to sit at the bar after ~30 minute wait, during which time we enjoyed our cocktails and wine.Super fun and casual atmosphere, and the food was delicious and unique (the pork buns, crab fried rice, and lobster noodleswere...*chef's kiss*). It can be really hard to get a reservation, but it is not too be missed and is one of our favoriteNantucket restaurants of all time. Read more

Omg !!!! That food ... and this drinks ... speeches... just incredible delicious. Place is really small and really... crowded. Really difficult to make reservation but believe me there is a reason why - the food is just unbelievable amazing. Ifyou are lucky enough to get a table believe me worth the waiting and every penny that you will spend there. Menu is big for thesize of the place, many Asian cuisine choices (no sushi) also many vegetarian and meat options. Drinks are great ! The foodarrived when is ready so be prepared that there is no first or second . Staff will inform you about this before youorder. Prices are Normal for the Nantucket lifestyle. Highly recommending that place! Read more

The Nautilus is an Asian-fusion restaurant, and it was our favorite restaurant on the island. We tried a few dishes, and the... Peking duck was our favorite. It takes about an hour to make and feeds 2-4, definitely worth the wait. Read more

A must go!!! For now they are only doing phone call booking after 2pm for the same day dinner, so make sure you call right after... 2pm. They are usually booked out after 2:15pm. We didn?t get the booking but decided to walk in and try, and luckily got anoutdoor seating! Every dish is worth it, very tasty and satisfying!! I would strongly recommend the blue crab fried rice,tempera oyster roll and shishito. We also got an extra free fried pancake from the kitchen, don?t know why. :) Overallexperience is just perfect!

We went to the Nautilus based on positive reviews online. Our server Sam was very friendly and professional. We ordered the tuna... poke, tempura oyster tacos, scallops and grilled lamb chops. All of food was of high quality which justified the price. The lambchops in particular were a standout! Looking forward to trying the restaurant again when they open a Boston location. Read more
