About
Dune, new to Nantucket in 2009, is a creation of Michael Getter, formerly of 21 Federal and American Seasons restaurants. The décor in our three distinct dining rooms is a blend of sophisticated elegance and soothing comfort. Along with our exotic quartzite bar and charming patio we offer an extensive selection of handcrafted cocktails, wines, spirits and cordials along with offering full lunch, dinner and dessert menus. The ever changing menu showcases an innovative selection of the finest in seasonal local produce, fish and meats from regional farms and select purveyors. During the summer season we serve lunch and dinner daily. Bar opens at 5:00pm every day.

We had a reservation at Dune to eat on the patio which was lovely and heated nicely. My husband had the scallops and I hate the pork chop plate. Very yummy and the cappuccino at then end was smooth and delicious as well.

We dined at Dune on 9/15 and had an excellent meal. We had the mushroom risotto and pork belly tostadas for starters and both were great, especially the pork bellies. We split the pan seared sea scallops, which was also outstanding. The service was great...More
