Great food, terrific atmosphere in the midst of the Vineyard's prettiest town. All the fish dishes are particularly great! Haddock melts in your mouth! Soft shell crab over pea risotto is to die for.

I'm lucky enough to have a friend who has a home on Martha's Vineyard and almost every year I get a chance to visit their place. It's a second home for them so I visit when they're there and sometimes my wife and I go by ourself. Either with my wife or with my friends (we play golf every fall... More

We had always gone to ALchemy for New Years, had a good meal and good service. NOT THIS TIME. Seated by the door, FREEZING COLD, every time the door opened. I complained, and was told that there are no other seats, and they dont have assigned seating, NOT SO. Every other year, we were asked if the top floor was... More

The owner-manager, Charlotte, runs a top notch restaurant. Very good food. Good but small bar. Noisy and smallish down stairs dining area. Upstairs dining is like a different restaurant. Downstairs is much preferred. We have dined there a dozen times over the years. Never disappointed ... when down stairs.

Just seemed like it was for the elite in Edgartown, which is not me. Seemed like a place to be or an "it" place but not my cup of tea.

I wish I could have an option for 3.5 stars, because this isn't quite a 4 and not quite a 3. Alchemy is a place I have visited once or twice over the years, finding it overly complicated and inconsistently prepared, and the service very inconsistent. We tried it in October thinking maybe it would be different, and it sort... More

Incredible food. Creative, sophisticated menu. Everything from salad to entrees very tasty and well prepared. Tried to return next night for dinner but only open 3 days a week due to off season.
