Living in an area that restaurant's mostly focus on seafood it is refreshing that there are items on the menu that can appeal to a customer other than seafood. It is not often that you see roasted duck on the menu prepared crispy with a delicious dipping sauce. Nice change up.

About the restaurant

Welcome to Knots Landing: the New Home of New England Pizza Chatham!

The Malitas family are pleased to announce they've opened a new restaurant. Brother and Sister Philip and Sophia Malitas had the desire to own a restaurant for over 30 years. They opened New England Pizza in 1987 and have been serving the town of Chatham ever since.

With a love for the community and when the opportunity arose they purchased as well as totally renovated what is now known as Knots Landing Bar & Grill located at 1077 Main Street in Chatham. The dream of owning an upscale restaurant that is casual and family friendly has come true!

Please stop by Knots Landing lunch or dinner to try our amazing cuisine and don't forget to bring the family.

Knots is a hidden gem. Don’t let the giant New England Pizza sign out front distract you. Yes, they have yummy pizza but they also have fantastic burgers, seafood and pasta.

This is hands down the best restaurant in Falmouth. The sushi is not only high quality but also incredibly delicious. The pad thai and short rib were phenomenal—the best my wife and I have ever tasted. The waitress and manager were fantastic, going above and beyond to ensure our experience was perfect. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a nautical theme that perfectly complements the seacoast charm of Falmouth.

The Ships Inn Restaurant offers one of Nantucket's finest dining experiences. Located in an historic whaling captain\'s mansion built in 1831, the dining room and lounge are below street level and have an updated colonial atmosphere. Tall windows along two walls let in the summer breezes and let escape the sounds of happy conversation. This restaurant is a very good choice for an evening out with friends, and there are cozy, intimate alcoves for more romantic encounters. American/French cuisine is featured, with everything freshly prepared on the premises. Chef Mark Gottwald's food is bold and flavorful, and presented with understated elegance. Dinner menu selections include lobster, calamari, crab cakes, salmon, prawns, chicken, duck, beef, and lamb. Only the freshest ingredients are used. Members of our restaurant staff have been part of the Ships Inn family for an average of seven years or more. Friendliness, attentiveness, and food knowledge are the cornerstones of our operation.
