Editorial Review for Beechwood – by Randi Schmelzer
In Short
Culinary partners Brooke Williamson and Nick Roberts (Amuse Cafe) have transformed the former Cape Cod-inspired Menemsha space. The loft-like dining room features deep orange booths surrounded by woodsy murals, low-backed sofas and wooden-crate tables. The broad menu starts with beluga lentil soup, roasted spaghetti squash gratin and grilled baby octopus. Popular entrees are roasted chicken breast, white salmon with creme fraiche and short rib pot pie. Uncommon, sharable desserts include key lime pound cake and vanilla bean panna cotta.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoWhile the dining room is only open Tuesday through Saturday evenings, the lounge serves seven nights a week. The bar menu features smaller-portioned items like shrimp skewers, grilled lamb meatballs, and three kinds of fries.
Where to SitLively couples and small groups gravitate toward seats around the patio's firepit, or to sofas sprinkled around the candlelit bar area. For a quieter meal, request a table in the back of the spacious, tucked-away dining room.

I have been to this place few times now and I honestly always enjoy the experience. I like the place itself and the atmosphere, and I love sitting around the fireplace. The food is pretty good, just not enough for the 4th star on my book. Overall I recommend it. It is the ideal place to catch up with a friend that you haven't seen in a while.
Pros: ambience
