The Nautilus What Our Friends Are SayingTravel & Leisure: "This newish bar and restaurant is known for its eclectic menu, with an Asian interpretation of local ingredients served tapas style. Their spin on local ingredients translates to the bar menu, giving The Nautilus a cult following among industry professionals and "summer people." Mixologist and bar manager Clint Terry stocks the shelves with Ambrosia spices and herbs, creating cocktails with unexpected seasonal twists. You'll find roasted grapefruit with chiles, flaming rosemary, and tequila in Teq-uil-a Mockingbird. Less adventurous drinkers can opt for a Blueberry & Soda, which balances Cisco Brewer's 888 blueberry vodka with spicy ginger and lemon. If you're skipping the cocktails altogether, do as the bartenders do and ask for a glass of Fernet Branca."Lonely Planet: "In a sea of, well, seafood restaurants, Nautilus offers a tantalizing alternative with its menu of global-minded (but decidedly Asian focused) dishes. It offers hearty mains, such as thick and satisfying dandan noodles, as well as a bevy of fun small plates like scallion pancakes and harissa-spiced lamb chops. Killer cocktails, too."

One of Nantucket’s most popular spots, The Nautilus, is famous for its delicious seafood that incorporates fresh ingredients in Asian-inspired dishes. Their menu mostly serves tapas-style small plates with a few big “table feasts” such as a whole roasted Peking duck. In other words, make sure you come hungry and ready to share.
