Nantucket: Where to Eat: Relaxed but Refined: Black-Eyed Susan’s

Black-Eyed Susan’s

There’s still no easy way of getting into this island favorite—reservations are accepted only for the 6 p.m. dinner seating—but locals and longtime visitors have accepted the fact that lining up in front of the unassuming restaurant is part of the experience. Opened in 1992 by chef Jeff Worster and Susan Handy, the restaurant has a small dining room with white-washed walls and green copper chandeliers. The hearty breakfast, served until 1 p.m., is popular; arrive early and be prepared to wait.
