“ My oh my. What a treat! We sat outside and ordered from the outdoor menu and the prix fixe menu from inside. Clam chowder was amazing. The sushi with lobster / scallops was great. The presentation of everything was exquisite. Beef cheek amazing. Chicken was to die for. The desserts were delectable. Stacy is the best! The bees knees drink was tasty. ”
“ We did the 7 course tasting menu. It was phenomenal and did not feel too full after. The views were stunning. Service was too notch. No issues at all. They were accommodating of my allergies. And it’s not often that you can find 7 course vegetarian menus so that was very appreciated. The fried squash blossom with ricotta was my favorite along with the chilled soup. The risotto was just okay but every other dish was absolutely worth trying. ”
“ This is a special restaurant, one of the best places to dine in the whole state of Massachusetts. The food is outstanding, the views and setting are even better. We ate in the bar area of the restaurant one night, then out on the veranda the next night, and had amazing experiences on both occasions. I couldn't recommend twenty-eight Atlantic highly enough. If you want a special meal on the Cape, this is where you go! ”
“ Twenty-Eight Atlantic gets much praise for being one of three 5 star restaurants in Massachusetts, but do they live up to the hype? The short answer is YES. We were seated promptly in the center along the wide window of the main dining room. The design of the restaurant was lovely, and the atmosphere was warm. The service was as you would expect from a 5-star restaurant. They were very attentive and provided great commentary behind the dishes. Now let’s get to the main part, the food. Before appetizers, we were met with a small sweet corn gelato bite to prepare our pallet. They also provided terrific bread with garlic butter. For the apps, we ordered the pork belly and burrata. Both were absolutely splendid, especially the pork belly, WOW! Moving onto our main dishes, we had the chicken and the short ribs. Now you might ask why order chicken at a 5-star place, but you can quickly tell the attention they pay to all of their dishes. That chicken was about the best chicken dish I’ve ever tried. The shorts ribs were also melt in your mouth good. No need for a knife; they were so tender. Safe to say, we didn’t leave room for dessert, but we were still treated to two bite-size offerings that were terrific. Twenty-Eight Atlantic is a place you must go to; just make sure you’re ready to digest the bill. ”
“ Everything was absolutely perfect. We did the 7 course tasting menu to get the full experience, and it was worth it! I did get too full to finish every dish, but every taste was beautiful and delicious. Our server was excellent-this place makes you feel special from entrance to exit. I like that it feels upscale, but not uptight. It was my birthday, and I think every staff member stopped by to celebrate. They also threw in a few extra surprises to make me feel extra special; not expected, but greatly appreciated! The view is gorgeous as well, and it was fun to watch the fog roll in as we ate our meal. Absolutely recommend twenty-eight Atlantic for a splurge/guilty pleasure on a special occasion. ”
“ Wow — what can I say! The food here is absolutely amazing — beautiful quality with so much depth to every dish. That said, if you’re the type of person who just shovels food down like you haven’t eaten in a month, this is probably not the place for you. And if you’re looking for a giant plate of lasagna or a massive steak — again, not the place. But if you appreciate thoughtful, well-executed cuisine that’s beautifully presented, this is heaven. I had so many questions for our server (who was fantastic) about all the different ingredients — every dish was clearly well thought out and crafted with care. The portions are perfect — exactly what a normal-sized human needs — and every bite is an experience. 5 out of 5 all day long. Highly recommend. ”
“ Had a lovely experience here last week. We were the first to arrive for our 5:30 reservation (indoor) and were seated promptly and attentively. Our server was wonderful and he did a great job explaining the menu. We were sat at the corner window seat for 2, best seat in the house! Excellent view! We did the prix fixe menu. Butter poached lobster and lobster carbonara were OUTSTANDING. But then again, everything we had was fantastic. Drinks were awesome as well. It was a great experience and would highly recommend to anyone! ”
