Perfect Kickoff to Our Martha’s Vineyard Stay Lookout Tavern was the very first restaurant we visited when we arrived on the island, and it set the tone for a fantastic trip. Our party of six enjoyed a total of four (maybe five!) warm lobster rolls, one shrimp platter, four rum punches, and one or two lemonades—and everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The lobster rolls were especially memorable—tender lobster meat, perfectly seasoned, and served warm. Before our meals arrived, we shared calamari and fried oysters as appetizers, and both were absolutely delicious—crispy, well-seasoned, and the perfect way to start the meal. When we arrived, we were told the wait might be around 30 minutes, but in reality, it was only about 10. That gave us just enough time to take a quick walk

This place was absolutely worth the wait! It was packed when we arrived, so be ready to wait a bit, but trust me, it’s worth it. The Reuben was one of the best we’ve ever had, and the homemade chips were perfectly crisp and delicious. The California roll was fresh and tasty, and the spider roll was good too. The shrimp dumplings weren’t our favorite and tasted a bit frozen, but everything else more than made up for it. The Cobb salad was a great portion and very flavorful, and the red ale was cold, refreshing, and paired perfectly with the meal. Overall, amazing food and great service,definitely recommend!

Jumbo Tavern Lobster roll and Texas Burger. This was my first ever lobster roll and I loved it. It was such a large portion I thought I would never finish it, I was wrong, I ate ever last bite and the fries along with it! The hubby enjoyed his burger and fries also. We sat at the bar with a view of the water. Service was excellent. The bartender recommended which lobster roll to get and I am so happy with the choice. Drinks: Tito’s & lemonade and the hubby got a local IPA.🍺 Clean bathrooms.

Fabulous sports bar with a lively atmosphere, great drinks, tasty food, and wonderful staff. The clam chowder soup was hot and terrific, fried clams and French fries was a hit. Sushi was amazing, so fresh, tasty, and delicious. Service was excellent and fast despite how busy it was. It was worth the wait!

Lookout Tavern in Martha's Vineyard is truly a gem! From the moment we arrived, it was clear why this place is so popular – it was absolutely packed, a sure sign of a fantastic establishment. We were quoted a 45-minute wait, but to our pleasant surprise, it ended up being much shorter, which was a great start to the evening. Once seated, the service was great, attentive despite the bustling atmosphere, making us feel well taken care of. And the food? Exceptional! Every dish was prepared with care, fresh, and bursting with flavor. It's the kind of meal that makes you want to linger and savor every bite. Adding to the overall magic was the beautiful view. Overlooking the water, it provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal. Between the lively atmosphere, the fantastic service, the in
