Pawnee House is one of those spots that instantly makes you feel at home - thanks in large part to Alex, who welcomes you like family the moment you walk in. His cocktails are incredible - thoughtful, balanced, and full of personality. We shared a bunch of plates, each one beautifully done, but the standout for me was the vegan crab cakes. I snapped a photo, but honestly, it doesn’t even begin to do them justice - crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside, with an insanely good aioli. The whole experience was warm, delicious, and full of heart. Pawnee House is a must if you’re on the island.

This is one of the best places I've ever eaten! The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, and the service was also very good. The only reason I gave it four stars is that my drinks should have arrived before my meal, and the drink service was a bit slow. Other than that, it's a fantastic place with amazing food, and I had one of the best lemon drop martinis I've ever tasted!

Incredible! Definitely my favorite spot on the Vineyard right now. The food is beautifully crafted and delicious. The chef is extremely talented and it's a blast to eat her food. There are plenty of vegan/vegetarian dishes that are inventive and tasty so I can go back again and again and order different things. The staff are super friendly and make you feel like a regular the first time you go in. Also, I love the vibe there. The lighting is warm but not too bright and the design touches are comfortable but stylish. Finally, it has the best three top table I've ever seen!

Great meal! The place is small and very busy. I felt very bad for Alex the host! There were many Karens trying to use their privilege and asking for a table without a reservation even after he told them there were none. Two women even asked if he could ask people sitting at the bar to get up early to accommodate them! Very poor taste and Karens being Karen. Aside from that food was great. Our waitress got one item of our order wrong but we were accommodated with a free dessert so it all worked out. Also mixed drinks were made strong so a plus! Salmon Wellington excellent and beet and goat cheese stack great and the shishito peppers were roasted to perfection. Strawberry shortcake so good with the homemade biscuit! All together a great meal. But please If want to dine in the summer make a r

Had an early Sunday dinner here on memorial day weekend. I highly recommend making a reservation because this place fills up! We had an excellent meal. The cocktails, apps, mains and dessert were all equally delicious. I had the Salmon Wellington (photo below) and my friend had the special of the day. Our server was delightful and attentive and the atmosphere was very quaint and funky with local artists lining the walls. They have lots of vegan options if that's something you are after...get the vegan chocolate Cake! It's to-due for!
