Outermost Inn

"My family and I had dinner here on Saturday, September 30th. Although the atmosphere and wait staff was very nice, I got food poisoning from this restaurant. I had ordered the steak and it came out undercooked. I took a few bites and then had the staff put it back on the burner. That was enough to result in awful food poisoning. I called the restaurant the next day to let them know with the intent of preventing this from happening to others. Their response on the phone was that “the source of food poisoning is very tough to pinpoint” and tried to deny that the food poisoning was a result of their food. I know for a fact that it was since I had eaten plain meals from my home only that day (which I then ate again no problem) and no one else in my party was sick. My symptoms were also clearly food poisoning and diagnosed by a medical professional (the staff member on the phone also tried to say that I may have had an alternative stomach virus unrelated to food). Overall, the restaurant staff tried to deny that this could have been related to them and never followed up with me or apologized. I would never go back here and would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, as they could not accept that this happened or try to make an effort to improve food safety for other patrons."

"We've been visiting the Outermost Inn for many years, and it is our favorite restaurant and location to eat on the island. It's a scenic drive up island and the sunsets are always amazing. Typically the high cost of the dinner is justified by the high quality food and service, but there was a noticeable drop in both this year. Our server, was adequate, but he seemed like he only had the energy to do the bare minimum. The food, while good, was not up to the typical high standards that you'd expect from the Outermost. At this price, the meal should be memorable, not just something you could get at other restaurants in Edgartown. This location is special and the experience should be too. Maybe the change in chef or adding a few more tables has had a slight impact on quality? We'll be back next year for another try :-)"

"We’ve been going to the Outermost Inn since it opened. We used to stay when it was an inn and have celebrated almost every one of our anniversaries there. Our dinner this year was maybe the best we’ve ever had. Every bite of food was absolutely delicious and the service was lovely."

"Exceptional food and location! Perfect for a special night out! It's like they had a Hollywood set designer come in and create the most perfect summer dining experience, then created a menu to match the ambiance. Bravo! Try and get seated so you are there during sunset, and get there early to enjoy and drink and the oysters by the fire."

"The food was just okay. It was very overpriced for what we got. We were never offered coffee with dessert. They ran out of the filet, we were offered Weygu instead. One person in our party took this exchange, however there was an up charge of $10 that was never disclosed on what was a price fix menu. We paid $120 per person. Honestly the meal and dessert was not worth it. They advertised $115 on their website, then wanted an additional percentage for the kitchen, like a kitchen appreciation fee. We left stunned at what we had paid. Instead of remembering the food, all we could think about was how ripped off we got. On the plus side, the area was beautiful. If you look at the price of your meal as an entrance fee to a beautiful setting you may be able justify it."
