Sushi
Summer on Martha’s Vineyard means one thing: seafood
Maybe you think clambakes, lobster, oysters and fresh fish but this week we’re thinking sushi — which encompasses it all!
Sushi might seem like an easy, light meal but to those making it, it’s art. Each roll is made meticulously with fresh ingredients including local fish! And on Martha’s Vineyard, there’s no shortage of sushi!
The Lookout Tavern has been a longtime favorite for sushi. With an extensive menu, it’s hard to pick just one but that also means there’s something for everyone. From delicious seared tuna or edamame as an appetizer to a decadent chef’s special maki roll. Grab a bar stool and watch the sushi guys roll! Don’t forget The Lookout offers online ordering for takeout, but if you’re hoping to sit down, expect a short wait.
Pop down to the Oak Bluffs harbor and have a seat at Nancy’s An island institution that also serves wonderful sushi! Featuring apps and snacks such as nigiri, sashimi ceviche, seaweed salad and seared tuna. Interested in something heartier? Nancy’s has 8 different specialty rolls, bowls and cool combos like the sushi/sashimi dinner.
Looking for an easy in and out with sushi on the go? Stop by The Net Result in Vineyard Haven. Another Island classic that not only serves sushi but also fresh catches like tuna, lobster, swordfish and more. The sushi is made to order and prepared to go, making it easy in and easy out––especially on a summer day!
Heading in or out of Edgartown?
Stop by Edgartown Meat & Fish for freshly prepared sushi. The selection is simple––featuring California rolls, spicy tuna rolls, pork gyozas, vegetable spring rolls and more. The case is always fully stocked, making it easy to run in and run out while still getting what you want!
Welcome to Town MV where there’s over 25 rolls to choose from! Lead by head sushi chef Andy, their menu is nothing short of incredible. One side of the menu features classics like the spicy tuna roll or sashimi/nigiri, along with amazing appetizers such as scallop frois gras, yuzu yellowtail, pork gyozas and more! The specialty rolls are exceptional, bursting with flavor and boasting combinations you could only dream of. Make sure to check out the poke bowls too! Vegan or vegetarian? Sushi Town has that too. Order online to head to Edgartown!
Lunch with a view? Sushi is also being served up at the Seafood Shanty on the Edgartown harbor! Sit up on the roof deck, enjoy a cold cocktail and order the Crazy Tuna roll! Smaller than some of the other menu’s features, but still just as good! Order online or visit the Shanty on Dock St.
