    Todd and Steel are creating so many creative and sumptuous options it is a real special dining experience…especially in this fall season. There is limited seating so make your Stroll reservations now so you do not miss out on this Nantucket gem!

    The opportunity to sit at the counter and watch Chef Todd and Steel made for a delicious and very special fall dinner at Black Eyed Susan’s. A real Nantucket treasure! Thank you to all

    After many years of visiting the island, we tried Black Eyed Susan's for dinner. What an intimate setting. We loved that we could BYOB. Our waitress was great. The food was good. I wish my cod had more flavor. It was kind of blah. My husband loved both his entree and dessert. The best part is watching the chefs at work. It was like having dinner and a show. Amazing! We would return!
