    The food was excellent. The bar staff was extremely attentive, the Somalia was wonderful to work with. I found the prices to be a bit ridiculous. The wine list was parked up much higher than other comparable restaurants. Well I’d love to go back a hefty price tag Will keep me away.

    Great experience! I've been to Nautilus on Nantucket, and the Pier 4 location definitely lived up to expectations! Tuna poke, pork belly buns, Jonah crab special, and lettuce wraps were all fantastic! Perfectly made negroni, and the ACK Nauti was delicious. Service was present but not overbearing which is always appreciated. Lively crowd by the bars, and dining room was decently filled. 10/10 thank you for a great dinner! I truly forget our server's name (and didn't bring home the receipt to check), but she was fantastic!

    Outstanding meal with 5 other colleagues. Split several items and nearly all were outstanding. The cucumber salad was the star for me - best cucumber dish I've ever had. Tasty cocktails and a great ambiance made for a very memorable meal.
