Chee Yi OngJune 4, 2017Oysters were very fresh, and we even had the caviar! Chef came out and asked for feedback afterwards, so that was a pleasant surprise. Choose to sit outside as the inside got pretty noisy during lunch
Chelsea MurrayAugust 14, 2019Big fan of boozy lunch at Cru. Shrimp cocktail is 🙌🏻, oysters, lobster roll. Martinis (cucumber - tequila), back bar can get fun and rowdy
Alessia De VitJuly 5, 2017The ambient is very nice, reminded me of the French Riviera. Good food and wine. Amazing the Greek oil they give for tasting at the beginning of the dinner. I highly recommend
Sam PezzulloAugust 26, 2013Amazing location, great atmosphere. The food was good. The Simon ACK oysters were some of the best I've ever had, and the smoked fish dip was delicious!
- Jonathan RobinsonAugust 2, 2012A big improvement over the Ropewalk (which I really liked). They've done a really nice job making it over. Awesome raw bar too, and they make a fine Dark n Stormy.
Palmer EmmittJuly 12, 2012Hush puppies are amazing! Soft shell crab club sandwich was excellent and was served with perfectly cooked fries beautifully seasoned with rosemary, sage and sea salt.
eric bornemannMarch 24, 2015Lobster cocktail is the best. Go early and sit at the bar to beat the brunch rush and get a great view
StephenJuly 12, 2014The best restaurant in Nantucket! If you like a great Dark and Stormy, make sure to ask for Daniel. Best bartender at Cru!
DeidreAugust 8, 2013Cru has a lot to offer - a great location and a solid menu. It is pretty busy at all hours, though, and service suffers as a result.
Lily NathansonJuly 7, 2013Most amazing lobster roll. Still thinking about it. Gorgeous views of the harbor - highly recommend!
If there is striped bass on the menu - get it! Best meal of the summer. Crucumber cocktail is a must.
Mary HaleyAugust 2, 2012This premier oyster bar offers casually elegant cuisine in a visually stunning waterfront setting on Nantucket harbor.
Marc VJuly 3, 2013Fried clams and softshell BLT.... washing it down with Long Island Iced Tea..... great lunch
Shawna SoltisMay 26, 2018The Lobster poached in butter is like heaven and the lobster roll is right below it- Lucrecia FernandezAugust 20, 2016I loved the Local Oysters and the Lobster Roll. They were absolutely amazing!!
emily gannettSeptember 2, 2014Dinner is good but I'd rather enjoy happy hour with cocktails and the calamari appetizer at the bar.
- Asma IqbalMay 31, 2013Hush puppies are terrible, too much egg, not true hush puppies.. They are more like a fried soufflé. Fries and fried calamari are amazing!!!
Kim ClarkJune 21, 2012cool interior. Portions are decent. Fries r bland. My ceviche was hard and my friend got sick from fish sandwich. Prices are high. with that prime real estate y didnt they make outdoor seating!
Sit at the bar. Ask for Matty - any day but Sunday. Won't go wrong.
Paul MurphyJuly 5, 2013This is like being served an expensive (and actually decent) meal in the middle of a middle age frat house. Terrible layout, but fish was pretty good.
