Northern Italian cuisine debuted on-island at this cored-out clapboard house in 1980, slightly ahead of the wave. The delights endure: "badly cut" homemade pasta, for instance, in a sauce of wild mushrooms, prosciutto, and fresh sage, or luscious lobster cannelloni enrobed in a corn zabaglione. Braised lamb shank comes nestled in Parmesan-polenta custard, and the pannacotta gets a bit of added zip from a rhubard compote. The prevailing aesthetic may be rustic, but the results read as rare delicacies in these parts.

What ever you do in Nantucket stay away from DeMarco's as the food is bogus. Not to mention way over priced.
