Best of Boston 2007 Restaurant, Romantic, Neighborhood Marthas Vineyard
Atria

Every summer weekend night, local pianist John Alaimo tickles the ivories at Atria, further charming the diners delighting in chef Christian Thornton’s serious dishes with not-so-serious names: Cod Is Great, Cod Is Good, for prosciutto-wrapped fish with corn pureé and Swiss chard; and Pig Pig Pig, a braised pork shank with collard greens. Weekday evenings, meanwhile, see Vineyard natives canoodling and sipping pinot at the low-lit downstairs bar—no soundtrack needed.
