Fodor's Expert Review Blue Canoe Waterfront Grill

With its front-row view of Vineyard Harbor, this spot lets you enjoy passing boats and nightly sunsets. It's not just the scenery—especially from the outdoor deck—that draws folks here for dinner. Like many restaurants on the island, this one is a strong advocate for using local ingredients, whether they be from the sea or the land. Start with the decadent lobster fritters, then try the seafood risotto, topped with lobster, scallops, shrimp, and mussels. Lunch is served in the summer months.
