Tried to go to the clam bake. Long story short, we couldn't. Had a nice and relaxing lunch on their patio. CAESAR SALAD legit had anchovies on it. FAKE BOOZE is a cocktail with mint and ginger soda. CLAM CHOWDER and LOBSTER BISQUE were really good. CALAMARI was perfectly cooked, tender and not chewy or rubbery. S'MORES TART was super yummy. Service from server and hostess are flawless. read more

let me start by saying this the food was not terrible but the service was horrible we were waiting for our food for an hour and on top of that they forgot the egg and cheese on one of the people in my groups food and they forgot two eggs from someone else's food. 3 stars read more

To start, who I assume to be the restaurant manager gets a 10/10. He gave great service and hospitality. Extremely personable and clearly works his tail off. Once we got in, we grabbed a drink at the bar before sitting down for our reservation (we arrived early). The bartender was pretty impolite. I've been in the service industry so I usually don't read too much into it but this is a time where I will confidently say she shouldn't be in the hospitality industry. Fast forward. We sit down. Ambience is eh. It very much gives 'restaurant inside of a hotel' vibes. Lots of noisy kids (I know this isn't anyone's fault, just a fact of the matter). As for the food, it was fine. There was nothing wrong with it but it also didn't blow me away. If you come here, I don't think you'll have a bad experience but if you get the chance I think there's some other places worth exploring instead. read more

The Hotel Nantucket is a great place to visit and a well run establishment. My interest in this location was piqued by the Elin Hildebrand novel bearing the same name. I expected the restaurant staff to be a bit more polished than they were. I had requested chowder and the person that I requested it to disappeard and never returned. Upon second request I was told that they did not have it. The gift shop was lovely and the woman who worked at the front desk and the gift store was really a treasure. She wrapped each item that I purchased impecably and even offered me a box of chocolate covered cranberries with my purchase. read more

The best part was the live entertainment on the porch. The service was good. The food was lacking. The pork chop had a sauce that was off putting to me and my chop was over cooked as I requested medium. The bread service was good except nothing for gluten free folks. The dessert was s'mores was a good choice for gluten free but marshmallow could have been melted a bit more. For the price I guess I just expect more. read more

I've been going here for a couple of years, and the prices have skyrocketed. I'm not quite sure a lunch menu full of 25-45 dollar meals is justifiable for the quality of the food, but it was still enjoyable. The service is always fantastic, our waitress was very accommodating and went above and beyond. She was personable and friendly, per usual. It's very personal and the food comes out at an average pace. The decor has changed over the years, but the outdoor seating is always beautiful and comfortable on the porch of the hotel, complete with fire places and even occasional board games that are available. The drink list was creative and expansive. I ordered the seafood ceviche, which included cooked shellfish and shrimp, which confused me a bit. It was more enjoyable with some addition salt and lime. The chicken sandwich was crisp, juicy and had a unique glaze, the fries were better before they stared cutting them that thin, but that's also just a personal preference. The burrata salad was good, a little overpriced for its contents but alright nonetheless. The house pickles were probably the highlight for me, I wish I could buy an entire jar to take home. read more

Sat at the bar, John the bar tender is great. We got a Cesar salad that was excellent despite the fact that it wasn't on the menu. Also got the octopus which was to die for - I've never liked octopus any other place besides here. The scallop pasta is a MUST GET. We ordered the thin spaghetti and both the director of guest services and the bar tender sold us into the scallop pasta instead and it did not disappoint! The calamari wasn't good at all but the other dishes made up for it. We ended with the s'mores tart which unfortunately looks better than it tastes - it's not bad, but not anything we fawned over or are rushing back for. Espresso martini is great here as well! read more

We enjoyed a Fall evening dinner at Breeze which is located inside of The Nantucket Hotel. We started with their clam chowder and scallops. The clam chowder was just okay for me since there wasn't a strong clam presence and the chive oil didn't add anything to it. The scallops were very good, seared and seasoned well but 3 for $28 is a bit steep even for Nantucket, 4 would have been reasonable. Both the roasted chicken and strip steak were very well prepared and the chicken was moist and juicy. Again the chive oil on the chicken didn't play enough of a part to stay on the dish. I do think both needed a little more seasoning and it would have been nice to make your choice of chicken piece which came with a thigh, breast, and leg. The sides were all tasty and prepared well. The service was really great! We felt taken care of without being bombarded and the low lighting and decor sets a very nice ambiance and feel. There is a parking lot but is also walkable from downtown. This could easily be a 5 star review but the seasoning was too light on everything, tweak that and it would go from good to really delicious! read more

The GOOD: - Scallops - Pork Chop - Some staff were nice, but some staff were eh The BAD: - Roasted Beet salad literally just 6 small pieces of beet. Flavor was okay but the other salads looked much better - Garganelli Pasta- looked a lil better added with a protein but very bland as is and very small portion of vegetable. Especially disappointing bc it's their only vegetarian option - Overpriced bc it's part of the hotel?? Not sure why prices are like this when equal or better quality food is available at lower prices points all around town - Booked for outdoor seating for a large party, forecast was a little sketchy in morning so they called to see if we would be okay moving to the porch. We got there it was beautiful out and all the forecasts changed to looking very good, but they still insisted the outdoor area would be closed, and then they told us that our party would be split into two tables 10 feet apart. They let us sit inside together but then opened up the outdoor seating for other people?!?! Maybe they knew they were getting our money anyway and wanted to keep the other tables open or overbooked themselves and were trying to fix it by moving us?? The UGLY: - Colony of ants by table in ballroom - Ant/bug in 2 of our waters - Fly in a beer. When asked for another, it came back with no head but the casing still there, meaning they just scooped out the foam with the fly and gave me same beer or used the same glass to pour the new beer. Both gross read more

Super cute restaurant located in a gorgeous hotel! We came here for brunch and we were pleasantly surprised by the ambience outside and cute decor. It was like we were on a sun deck- were we inside or outside? That is the question lol. We ordered mimosas and breakfast items. Pretty hard to go wrong and it was all very delicious and hit the spot. Unfortunately the music kept dwindling in and out and would abruptly stop. Definitely ruined the brunch vibes to a certain extent. It seems as if they had an excessive amount of staff working at one point we witnessed 3 people helping a table of just two. Overall would recommend! read more

Family style breakfast restaurant also the only breakfast I could find on the island lol so in we came!! Super cute decor and very comfortable chairs. They have literally one option for breakfast which is first course of granola followed by a second course of scrambled eggs and bacon and potatoes so that's what we ordered! Everything was good! read more

Decided to venture to Breeze for a Friday night dinner as it was close to where we were staying. It was delightful- great food and a great environment. We were here on a 40 degree spring day, I imagine that during the warmer summer months, the various balconies would be delightful as well. Food was amazing, the beef was tender and the scallops were very flavorful. Expect to pay for the quality and ambiance. Highly recommend. read more

We ate dinner in the restaurant one evening during out stay at the hotel. The service was really good, our waitress and everyone who spoke with us were great. Unfortunately, in all honestly, the food was the worst meal we ate on the island. The bread that was served before dinner tasted stale. The seafood pasta had tons of undercooked onion, it didn't have any scallops as described, and the pasta tasted like it came from a box. The apple tart had soggy dough and wasn't well baked. I wouldn't return to the restaurant. read more

If you make a reservation make sure they don't book a wedding on top of you're reservation date. The bar and the restaurant were closed for a wedding even though we had a confirmed reservation. They won't notify you and you'll be looking for options. The staff was very nice about it and offered us some wine on the house, but be better - notify your guests if you must cancel reservations. read more

We stopped by on Saturday for lunch and everything was quite good. Beware they close the kitchen at 2pm, so definitely go before then. We had made reservations at 2pm because they had that option available online but when we got there we were told to order quickly because the kitchen was about to close. Luckily we knew what we wanted and ordered right away. We got the clam chowder and lobster bisque to start. Both were fantastic, but my favorite was the clam chowder, very flavorful, fresh and chunky, just the way i like it. I then got the turkey and avocado sandwich and my husband got the burger. Both simple options you may think but prepared beautifully. My sandwich was perfectly toasted without being too hard and the turkey was fresh, bacon was smoky and aioli perfectly flavorful. It came with crispy fries and a pickle. My husbands burger was also juicy and full of flavor. Our drinks were yummy, and I do wish we had been there early enough to get a dessert because their options look so yummy. Overall we highly recommend and will definitely be back if we return to Nantucket! read more

Visiting Nantucket and looking for a quick breakfast spot we landed at the hotel and Breeze restaurant. We were seated at a table near the balcony overlooking the pool and in a nice Nantucket breeze. Service was courteous and friendly. The meals were the Eggs Benedict and toasted cheese and cup of tomato soup. The eggs were a little more firm than I would have liked but the entire meal was tasty and the Canadian bacon lean. The sandwich was full of cheeses and the soup thick and full of flavor albeit a little salty and naturally acidic. I recommend this place for breakfast. read more

Several areas outside to eat, and they were keeping the restaurant below capacity to prioritize safety, which is great. Very good attentive service and although it is a "hotel" restaurant in the Nantucket Resort, it came through with flying colors for lunch. It is a bit pricey, but on par with the island restaurants. So onto the food... the Tuna Poke was excellent, moderately priced and a heaping portion of fresh, nicely seasoned tuna. We also had the lobster roll with truffle fries, and although at a steeper price, again a heaping portion of fresh lobster meat and delicious fries. We also had a lobster mascarpone panini that was filled with lobster and had a great flavor. The salmon Cesare salad was delicious with a nice creamy dressing, a nice portion of tasty grilled salmon and homemade croutons. It absolutely beat our expectations and would highly recommend. Big prices but huge portions, the lunches could happily be shared. read more

James was a great server and the food was fantastic. A fun and relaxed area in a beautiful historic hotel over Christmas.

The Breeze has been a go-to for us ever since they opened, but on our second visit in a few weeks - this time with a party of 6 - we were ushered to an outdoor table on the front veranda. Perhaps this would be OK on a balmy night, but we'd requested an indoor table because it was a chilly, mid-June evening. Though our waiter Wayne [always a standout] assured us that the overhead heaters worked very well, most of us left the dinner perfectly warm on one side of our bodies and chilled to the bone on the other. Inasmuch as there were plenty of empty tables inside, I suspect this was a staffing decision more than anything else, so we were very disappointed. read more

The hotel and restaurant were very beautiful but the meal itself was less than memorable. It was stroll weekend and they clearly wanted to max out their reservations - the tables were incredibly close to one another making getting in and out of seat next to impossible without knocking it over. The stroll menu left a lot to be desired - it was basically bar food (quesadillas, fries, burgers) - not what you expect for dinner. And they were clearly understaffed and under trained - we ordered two apps and then soup for dinner. The soup came out first and that caused a lot of confusion. We did finally get our apps (kinda blah) and then never got our main courses again. That was when we decided to hang it up - our waitress was very sweet and was trying to keep up. The owners did stop by the table and we chose not to complain because we didn't want to make a fuss - I will chalk it up to poor organization on a busy weekend. read more

We had breakfast buffet every morning at the Breeze Bar & Cafe, as well as a clam bake dinner with a work retreat. Breakfast consisted of smoked salmon and egg sandwiches, potatoes, eggs, an array of fruits, juices, and other goodies. The food was all freshly made and warmed throughout our 3 hour breakfast window. The staff was fantastic, ensuring our tables were properly set and cleaned. The clam bake was absolutely incredible, with menu items consisting of all you can eat, pasta, corn, clam chowder, broiled chicken, and full lobsters. I took down a couple lobsters, which were some of the freshest I've ever had. Open bar was also a major plus, as my colleagues and I were fully accommomdated for the evening with a great selection of cocktails. Can't wait to return for round 2! Best, Charlie read more

No, just No!! Reheated food with no flavor. Asked for food recommendations and was told the Crab Cake to start and then the Swordfish. They both tasted practically the same!!! They brought the food out to us in under four minutes, a clear sign that they were pre-made and simply reheated. The consistency and complete lack of flavor confirmed this suspicion! We felt rushed the whole time. We were in the place for a total of 45 mins (Sat evening) I guess that's why it's called Breeze, because we arrived and before we knew it they breezed us right back out!! This place is pretty new, but with so many other awesome tried and tested places to eat on Nantucket, I can't imagine this place will survive. You can't get by selling fast food at $$$ fine dinning prices to this discerning market. Like us, any clientele used to good food simply won't return. No wonder it was so easy to get a table!! read more

No parking for a long long distance Better leave at least an hour before your reservation. Not worth your extra extra time to circle the building while on the Island. Manager on the night of the visit was not helpful only added sarcasm to a pissed off potential customer. read more

On the Last night of our family vacation we decided to have a little happy hour and watch the sunset at Brant Point (just beautiful) and then walked up Easton St for dinner at the Nantucket Hotel restaurant, The Breeze. The service was impeccable and friendly, without being overdone. We really enjoyed talking with the manager who seated us, and our waiter for the evening. Drinks were awesome and food was delicious -between us, we ordered chicken with broccolino and mushrooms, scallops, chowder and a few other things which I've forgotten. We were surprised thar only one other table was occupied and that was in a far corner. We would have hoped for a more active, buzzy scene but the manager explained that there was a wedding reception going on so the restaurant was at a mimimim. Also wished the gift shop had still be open (we got there at 8:30). Would have loved to buy one of their candles I smell wafting through the property. Maybe next time! read more

Not usually one for reviews, but I really feel that major accolades are necessary to the Breeze Restaurant in the Nantucket Hotel & Resort. A few weeks ago, my partner and I ventured out from NYC to Nantucket for a much needed get away. I was not sure what to expect, but was not only blown away by the hotel with their friendly staff and great accommodations; I was also surprised by the hotel restaurant. I've traveled pretty extensively and consider myself a foodie (self-proclaimed of course) who enjoys farm to table, organic, fresh/great quality food on a frequent basis and this place by far exceeded my expectations...especially for a hotel restaurant! The steak with marrow was perfectly done and had flavors that really meshed well together, the New England Clam Chowder was one the best I've ever had, and because of this place; I can no longer eat mussels anywhere else. The coconut chili broth was nothing short of amazing! Muscles were fresh and meaty; the flavors were bold, the only other way to describe them would be "addicting". My partner and I were really impressed given that we dined at another popular restaurant the night before, and were told was the "best" on the island. I'm sorry, but while the other place was great and there were no major complaints; the food at the Breeze Restaurant has some culinary masterpieces on their menu that absolutely killed it for me each time I dined there. In addition to the awesome food, the staff was extremely friendly and really took care of us. I will say my only complaint would be the pricy cocktails / drinks. Albeit they were good, the prices seemed a little high for what they were; and this is coming from an NYC resident who is accustomed to paying ridiculous prices for drinks. I am not usually one to dine at a hotel restaurant, especially if I am not staying there; but this place is definitely a hot spot that should be visited. My trip to Nantucket will always be memorable because of the food at this place....and those mussels! read more

I came here for a day trip to stay at the hotel, which is beautiful, and was able to eat dinner at the restaurant. Breeze Cafe was amazing! I have a gluten allergy and they were very accommodating! The seafood chowder was delicious and I could have eaten the truffle fries for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The people I was with ordered the lobster stuffed burger and lobster roll. Both came with a generous portion of lobster and fantastic homemade sweet potato chips on the side. I got the steak, which was cooked perfectly and the executive chef came out to inform me of the changes he made to my dish to accommodate my allergy. The wait staff was so helpful and welcoming and the general atmosphere was really appealing. I love this place. I cannot wait to go back! read more

We decided to go back after our awesome experience last year and guess what, it was awesome again. The entire staff loved our little guy and had a blast with him.

One of the worst meals I've ever had. The burger was an overcooked frozen patty, and the avocado toast was smeared guacamole with a hard boiled egg that was allegedly "poached." An overpriced tourist trap if there ever was one. To be fair, service was good. read more

Mother's Day lunch 2021 at the Breeze Restaurant in Nantucket Hotel and Resort was a prefix three course menu, $70/per person, served on a rough hewn picnic table without a table cloth. The service was professional. Each mother was given a rose. The main course consisted of wet risotto, bland beef, over cooked roasted chicken and unseasoned roasted potatoes. The salmon was not fresh and was unappetizingly basted with BBQ sauce. When the dessert tray arrived they began to play recorded background music. The overall meal and experience was very disappointing and the worst meal we had on the island. read more

We had a great lunch here first where food was great and staff so accommodating and helpful since we had a 93 year old in our party. Our server and restaurant manager did a great job! We came back for dinner on Friday night and it was great experience again- delicious food, specially lamb ragout in spanakopita and filet mignon. It was a party of 6 and we had delicious 3 course dinner over 2 and a half hours without being rushed at all. Our server Matthew was kind, attentive and did a great job overall! We will be back! read more

Mediocre to below average all around. Was looking forward to breakfast here as it was on the front cover of the Nantucket 2020 Restaurant Guide. Unfortunately the dish displayed on the cover of the guide was not on the menu. Service was below average - just slow even though they were not busy towards the end of the breakfast timeframe. When our food did come out it was unimpressive and seemed to be put together carelessly with some things under cooked and others over cooked and skimping in some areas of the dish. Our server did recognize the issue with the food and took one of our meals off the bill so we appreciated that but would likely not return due to below average quality of food and service. read more

Service really suffering. Multiple waiters introduced themselves at the start because no one seemed to know who was helping our table. Waiter that we ended up with was super inattentive, a bit surly (would give one word answers and walk away mid question saying he would come back). We waited ridiculously long between courses and felt our ready food was likely waiting in the kitchen for long periods before our waiter remembered our table and checked. The cauliflower starter I ordered was absolutely bizarre. It ended up being a massive fruit bowl like dish overflowing with just mountains of huge cauliflower florets. It would have been enough cauliflower for 8-10 people. The cauliflower given was probably three to four times the size of my entire stomach. Wish i had taken a photo. I had a few florets, barely even making a dent but they had a kind of sickening sweetness so I had to stop. It was priced reasonably and had no indication it would be poor choice for one person. Even asked the waiter about it before ordering and he had nothing to say about it. The steak i had for main was fine but pretty dry and flavorless. It had a weird aftertaste (gross mix of truffle oil / gaminess). Both ordered the chocolate cake a la mode for dessert and they forgot the ice cream on one. Not sure how they didn't notice. Wasn't worth the wait or trouble at that point so didn't even bother saying anything. Setting outside was fine though not great view, got very cold (bring sweaters and jackets) and there was crying baby next to us. Other nearby diners had lots of issues to with lost orders, incorrectly cooked steaks, inattentive service, etc. Also had some issues with food allergy. For example waiter would say "thinks" there are no peanuts "on that cake." Disconcerting in 2020 to need to communicate severity of allergies and risk posed by trace amounts and cross contamination. He seemed somewhat unwilling to check with the kitchen regarding safety of the offerings. I have been many times in past years and thought it was spectacular, on par with brant point grill almost, but it was a total cluster this year. How the mighty have fallen. read more
