Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Vineyard Haven

My wife and I had a wonderful experience on Valentine's Day. The calamari was delicious (could have been hotter) and we split an order of surf and turf which turned out to be perfect for us. It includes 2 beef filets with sauce which were perfectly cooked, mashed potatoes, asparagus and a lobster tail all equally tasty. We chose a layered chocolate cake for dessert which was a great ending. The bar drinks were well mixed. My wife was not a fan of the house cabernet and the server exchanged it without question. She was awesome. She paced the meal perfectly and was very attentive. We will definitely be back.

Our greeting was warm and friendly. Our server, Daniel, was exceptional. The composed Tuna dish was perfectly prepared and executed. The homemade caviar pasta pasta appetizer was outstanding. Everything we ordered was carefully prepared and very tasty. I highly recommend 22 Bowens!

The food, the ambience, and the service is ALWAYS incredibly good. Going to Bocca is like going home - always welcoming and always warm and wonderful! If I were allowed one suggestion it would be: please ask people to refrain from talking on or engaging their cell phones while dining. There was a person near me who was dining alone. His entire time was spent watching rather loud videos. While I requested that the server ask him to lower the volume, it was disruptive nonetheless. Perhaps it’s just the way or the world…. The meal was still fabulous!

Delicious chowder and sushi! Absolutely loved the ambience and our waiter was attentive. We will be back again!

We ate an anniversary dinner at the Inn, a wonderful four-course meal of oysters, lobster, braised short ribs, and sea bass. Everything was delicious, and we're excited to return. Below is a fuller review of the Inn itself: We had a wonderful time at Lambert's Cove Inn. We stayed one night for our anniversary. Upon arriving to the island, we received two messages from the staff via text. This was wonderful as it allowed us to request early check-in. When we got to the Inn, we were greeted by Galen and Anna. They informed us that we could check in early and gave us a tour of the Inn. The grounds are spectacular. We were very happy to have arrived early as it provided time to take a leisurely walk to the pond, through lush flowers and plans, and near the alpacas. The room was cozy and had a private balcony, which was lovely. The staff had left us a bottle of Prosecco for our anniversary. This little detail was amazing.
