Fresh and uncomplicated seafood. Perfect, informal and relaxed location to eat fresh seafood while looking out the coming and going of fishermen. more

This is the essence of eating a two pound New England lobster right outside the shack it was steamed in and next to the boat it just came off of. This place has so much character it can't be anymore cool. Don't expect any linen, china, silverware or many side dishes. Order a lobster and enjoy it while sitting on... more

It hit me that there was something fishy about Menemsha since the last time I was there. Specifically, this guy in a preppy sear sucker suit just hit me in the head while I was waiting for my food order. No apology. Yes, the "sleepy fishing village" of my youth had turned into a parking lot nightmare with people shoving... more

Better lobster and steamers than Maine. No dress code, flip flops perfect attire.Great rawbar. BYOB Sometimes you may have to wait a moment for the food to come off the fishing boats, but its fresh. We often see famous people here. Increadible view. No indoor seating more

This is an actual fish market right on the water that also has fresh seafood cooked-to-order. On a recent visit we had stuffed quahogs, clam chowder, steamers, and lobster. Everything was very fresh and surprisingly affordable. You may have to wait a bit for them to steam your meal but it's well worth it. Seating is limited to a few... more

I vacation on Martha's Vineyard for one week every summer, and all those weeks I'm not there, I spend dreaming of going back to this market. Order your fish: lobster, scallops, clams, oysters on the half shell, etc. and grab your sides and beverages. They prepare the seafood fresh right there and you can sit out back eating your fine... more

Can't beat the fresh lobster rolls and clam chowder at Larsen's. The broth-based clam chowder was a real find for this lactose-intolerant diner. Come on a nice day or take out, as there is no inside seating, just outside on the dock on makeshift boxes. We watched a fisherman unload two cartons of whelks right in front of us as... more

I have tried both Larsen's and Menemsha Fish Market (right next door) many times and while Larsen's is okay it is always crowded, the chowder is only okay and they don't offer hot lobster rolls. Menemsha Fish Market on the other hand always offers amazin deals and far fresher tasting food. Today I discovered the best deal on all of... more
