★★★☆☆ 3.0 Stacey McKenzie · May 2024

The pearl was an experience. The place was modern, white, and romantic. Service overall was good. Our table was ready quickly, and the food came out quick. The server had knowledge and knew the menu. The food by itself is Asian inspired. Some dishes were good. Some were great. I will mention only the highlights - cornbread, rangoons, and short rib. The Coctails were ok. The first one that we ordered was really small. The second round was a full cup. The taste overall was ok. Prices were ridiculously expensive. Dessert wasn't as good as expected. It's not a dessert place. I would visit again, yes. There is something interesting and unique at this place.

The rating on the Pearl should be much higher. The food was amazing!! Was a very pleasant experience and I can’t wait to go back!! Love the names of some of the creative cocktails as well. Fun!

The bar is so beautiful, so is the restaurant itself. The food was very good and the presentation was on point! We started with ceviche and beef tartare, finished with potatoes and steak - which was absolutely amazing!! Thank you Svetlana and Kevin for great service and fun time!

Half empty on a Saturday night for a reason -- The Pearl is not what it used to be. We hoped that it was. Started with milk bread, which was not milk bread, but stale regular dinner rolls. Then $25 pork dumplings which were no better than $10 dumplings at a local chinese take-out. Finally an $85 lobster wok fried bowl that was so soaked with sugar-based sauce that was inedible. Won't be going back. Avoid.

Restaurant Review: The Pearl, Nantucket – A True Island Gem Nantucket is a place that holds its own kind of magic—cobblestone streets, sea-salt air, and a charm that’s impossible to resist. With so many incredible dining options, choosing where to go can feel overwhelming. But thanks to a friend’s recommendation, we discovered The Pearl, and I only wish we had gone sooner. From the moment we stepped inside, the experience was nothing short of spectacular. We began our evening with cocktails at the bar, which were crafted to perfection. The ambiance was chic yet welcoming—elegant without being pretentious. Once seated at our table, the service continued to impress. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly pleasant—striking the perfect balance between professional and person
