I love trying neighborhood black-owned business and Comfort Kitchen EXCEEDED my expectations. The entire experience was stellar from the warm welcome, the informed menu to the knowledgeable/kind staff. Every single dish we tried was amazing. Our drinks were balanced, inventive and top notch. I was celebrating my birthday and at the end of service the manager even gave me a handwritten birthday card. I will definitely be back.

Great experience! I've been to Nautilus on Nantucket, and the Pier 4 location definitely lived up to expectations! Tuna poke, pork belly buns, Jonah crab special, and lettuce wraps were all fantastic! Perfectly made negroni, and the ACK Nauti was delicious. Service was present but not overbearing which is always appreciated. Lively crowd by the bars, and dining room was decently filled. 10/10 thank you for a great dinner! I truly forget our server's name (and didn't bring home the receipt to check), but she was fantastic!

A good experience and good place for a date night. Salih was a wonderful server, pleasant to speak with and offered good suggestions. Food should have been a bit warmer for the hot dishes ( favorite was the short ribs and Caesar broccoli salad) and the some of the menu changes should have been communicated better. Cocktails are innovative and music enhanced the experience.
