The Straight Wharf has long been one of our favorite in Nantucket - but when the prices are this high, one hopes for everything to be excellent. Sadly, on this visit there were too many issues - I would give 3.5 stars if I could. First - the menu is Prix Fixe so this limits diners freedom to maybe split an appetizer or even order two appetizers instead of an app and an entree. Not everyone has a huge appetite. In order to have their cake and eat it too, they then add a supplemental charge on several of the choices. Why have prix fixe if the best items are extra, and there is not a reduction for vegetarian choices. It all seems contrived for maximal profit. A few glitches with the service: we ordered a bottle of wine and when our server came back about 15 minutes later to take our order, she announced that the sommelier was backed up and it would "be a while before we would get our wine". I protested against this as we wanted a glass before our food came - and magically the wine appeared 2 minutes later. My wife then asked if the Day Boat scallops are bay or sea scallops as she prefers bay. The waitress did not hesitate and stated they are bay scallops. Of course when the entree arrived they were huge sea scallops. At a restaurant of this calibre, the staff should be knowledgeable about the food. The food was very good but a bit lacking in flavor - especially the spice crusted catch of the day. The fish was good but the sauce and vegetables had absolutely no flavor of any kind. The scallops were good and our appetizers (the monkfish and salmon crude were also good. We did not have dessert. My wife could not finish her food. The setting is nice but neither the setting nor the food was as good as at Brant Point Grill, where we also dined. That restaurant was also less $$$$ per person as we split a half dozen oysters as an appetizer.
