Woods Hole Seafood

The location of this casual restaurant is priceless, with dockside seating that provides diners with great views of passing boats. Cocktails are made with fresh squeezed juice and Nobska Light, a locally made beer, is always available. The raw bar features a selection of smoked fish, shrimp, oysters, clams and calamari. Seafood chowder, bisque, seafood salad sandwich, scrod scampi, Cajun tuna and pina colada chicken are some other popular dishes. Tuesday nights are busy, due to the twin lobster special.

Simplicity and fresh ingredients are the guiding principles of this unique fusion restaurant. A waterfront dining spot, the Phusion Grille overlooks Eel Pond, and is open summers Wednesday through Thursday. The small but innovative menu includes dishes like Haleakala prawns, lollipop pork chop, seafood cioppino and cinnamon dusted diver scallops.

This seaside cafe has a great view of the Eel Pond drawbridge, where boats are always coming and going. The menu includes fresh seafood and natural, whole foods. There is an extensive vegetarian section, and all the dishes have Mediterranean hints.

This gourmet restaurant is located on a pier overlooking the ocean and is open from April to November. The menu features fresh seafood, prepared according to regional recipes. Some offerings include lobsters, swordfish clams, scallops and seasonal fin fish. There is also a great kid's menu. The dining room is said to have been constructed in 1946, with wood from shipwrecks and boards from old buildings.
