Same Old Place

There's a sign that days, 'Order Pizzas here' but unlike most places, you also pay there too. So you need to be prepared to order and wait at the same place. Great cheese pizza slices.
I eating here right now and loving it. Anchor Steam, steamers, the a swordfish special on risotto. Delicious.

Potato pancakes ARE amazing. Thicker than my grandmothers with mote onions, but yummy. Home made breads are very good too.
Mussels are great, save some home made bread to dip in the broth. Cape Cod Red on tap. If there's a wait, ask the bartender to put you on the waiting list for a seat at the bar.
21 Federal is a formal restaurant on Nantucket. We like to split an entree at the bar and this is a good place to do it to enjoy the company of both the bartender and others at the bar. This time we didn't even split an entree, we had beet salad and seared scallops with a Cisco draft, great!
If you go there, say hi to Lauren at the bar. She's great! She saw me tweetin from the bar and sent over a small dessert sampler from the chef. Fun!

Lola 41 has a nice bar, good music and Sushi.
The bar runs along the whole back wall of the restaurant so there's a god cahnce you'll get a seat. The bartenders were very freindly and took time to explain and let us smaple selections from the wine list so we could make our choice. They put a lot of time into selecting wines that are unique.
I usually pay attention to the music, and enjoyed the tunes that were playing.
The menu has two sides. Traditional foods and Sushi.
We don't eat Sushi a lot, but if you want to try it, this is a good place. Lola 41 has regular Sushi and some unique creations. What we tried was very good.

I had a flat tire.
I drove my car in, after inflating the tire.
Told Charlie I had a leak.
He said, "I'll take a look at it right now."
What!?
That was somewhat of a "No Way!" moment because that never happens at service stations, but Charlie is always like that.
That's why I always bring my cars to him when they need tire work.
In the end the tires needed to be replaced.
I could have gone over to BJ's to get a discount, but I had Charlie order a tire and install it.
He even called me at home to apologize that it wouldn't be ready in the morning, but would be done in the afternoon because his suppliers didn't have it in stock.
Great service.

I just had Zon's Mac and Cheese with Edamame last night in JP. Amazing. We sat at the bar and had a great time. Good tunes too. Their selection of unique beers is great too.

I clicked on 5 stars because Lineage is as good as it gets. I love the scallops over risotto. It's sooo good. We ate here last night and sat at the bar. The brick oven was adding extra warmth. I had a nice Pinot Noir. The salted dinner rolls are the best ever. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we weren't rushed. Everyone was very nice and we found a place to park across the street. We usually sit at the bar here. It's also convenient to get some shopping done at aTrader Joe's across the street. It was so cold last night that we shopped first and left everything in the trunk of the car. It was probably colder in my car than in my freezer at home.

Last night I had the Cod with Root Vegetables in a Tomato Sauce. I said, "This is the BEST fish I ever had."
The girl at the next table leaned over and said, "That's funny you should say that. I was just thinking that this is the BEST chicken marsala I have ever eaten."
I also had a Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. Great experience.
