There’s a fine dining restaurant on every street in downtown Nantucket, making the island a destination for people who love food. There are restaurants on the beach where sunsets get a round of applause; restaurants where every course is a sensory experience; and restaurants who have earned international accolades. A few of the island’s fine dining restaurants are open year-round, offering culinary treats during the deep winter months, but most open for Nantucket Daffodil Festival Weekend and close between Columbus Day and Christmas Stroll.
