Best of Boston

2006 Best Casual Restaurant, Nantucket

Sconset Café

Hidden away on the eastern end of the island, the Sconset Café isn’t fancy and serves no alcohol (has a BYOB setup), but it’s got one of the best little menus around. Entrées change often, and depending on the season might include salmon in saffron-tomato fish broth with ;ciabatta or grilled chicken with garlic and scallion mashed potatoes. If you’re fortunate, the knockout lemon tart with homemade lime cream will be available. You’d be wise to order it, even if you think you’re stuffed.
