I ordered the Korean short ribs and the sauce smelled so offensive that my wife asked to leave before I could finish 3 short ribs.

I wanted it to be awesome- it just wasn't. The young lady that served us knew we were not happy, and her service was good. We still tipped her well, the food was not her fault.

I seldom write bad or negative reviews, so this one flummoxed me a bit…read more The appetizer was this wonderful cold mussel dish, with spices and a light oil. Just a nice, artisan dish akin to something you'd get in New Bedford or Fall River. Fantastic. 5-Stars. Now their lobster roll. Imagine a hot dog, OK, and now imagine one of those little Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage links for size comparison. The volume of finely shredded lobster meat, that was also warm in that hot dog roll was smaller than the Jimmy Dean link. 0-Stars. My recommendations for a "good" lobster roll is to go anywhere else on island. I'd recommend Sayle's Seafood, The Nantucket Lobster Trap or Stubby's. In fact, I'd just stay clear of the Club Car altogether, it is one of those places for the self-focused New York / Miami new [vulgar] money jet-set that treat the island like their play-thing... you know, you see their empty beer cans in the morning around town. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

It's such a unique, lively vibe in the historic…read moretrain-car setting, with that classic Nantucket energy that feels special whether you're popping in for lunch or settling in for a full night out. The service is always on point (Bridget always takes care of us--she's genuinely so nice), and the food never misses: the lobster Cobb salad is fresh, loaded, and perfectly balanced, and the croque madame is pure comfort (savory, cheesy, and even better with the egg). And don't sleep on dinner, Club Car turns it up even more, and their steak frites is the best!

My friends and I also ordered food and it was just pretty average. Between four meals and 8 drinks, it was over $300 which wasn't worth the quality overall.

It was hard because we really wanted the braised short rib but it would not be ready until 7. Not having all your food ready until 1 and a half hours into service seems like an issue. So we needed extra time. We ended up with just a clam chowder and a seafood stew. Both were full of flavor and nicely seasoned. We walked out a little after 6:30. The server could have offered another glass of wine while we waited for a short rib. However we got the odd feeling we weren't wanted. They wanted to turn the table for a 7pm crowd.
