Best Restaurants for Groups in Vineyard Haven

We celebrated our son’s graduation from naval chaplaincy school here. Everything was wonderful! Our server was so friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious. We had a corner table with a great view of the water. There were quite a few other groups in our area, so the noise level did rise a bit, but we could still have comfortable conversation. At the end of our meal, our server brought a card to our son, signed by the staff, congratulating him on his accomplishment! I definitely recommend The Mooring for any occasion!

The meal and service were wonderful. We ordered the crab cake appetizer and the lobster noodle entree. Both were fantastic: Very well cooked and beautifully flavorful. Our waitress, Wendy, was very attentive throughout the night and made great suggestions and answered all of our questions about the menu. We had a window seat so everything was perfect!

Crowds have cleared out but the quality of the food and ambience remains great. The staff and other diners give this place that welcoming feel.

We ate an anniversary dinner at the Inn, a wonderful four-course meal of oysters, lobster, braised short ribs, and sea bass. Everything was delicious, and we're excited to return. Below is a fuller review of the Inn itself: We had a wonderful time at Lambert's Cove Inn. We stayed one night for our anniversary. Upon arriving to the island, we received two messages from the staff via text. This was wonderful as it allowed us to request early check-in. When we got to the Inn, we were greeted by Galen and Anna. They informed us that we could check in early and gave us a tour of the Inn. The grounds are spectacular. We were very happy to have arrived early as it provided time to take a leisurely walk to the pond, through lush flowers and plans, and near the alpacas. The room was cozy and had a private balcony, which was lovely. The staff had left us a bottle of Prosecco for our anniversary. This little detail was amazing.

The food was very tasty and the flavors were “sophisticated “ according to our knowledgeable friends. The menu choices were very appealing, and the four of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The views from the upper floor cannot be beat.
