About Esh
Family-owned, serving upscale contemporary American cooking. Rebranded from the Mexican restaurant Dos Mas in March 2026 after chef Michael Thomas joined from California, where he was a founding force behind Swaygu. Co-owned by Evan Shai with his siblings Zared Shai and Megan Shai Brown, who also run Taco MV in Edgartown and Katama Kitchen at the Katama Airfield. Esh is Hebrew for fire.
Before you go
Formerly Dos Mas. The Mexican menu was retired in March 2026. Closing time can move with the season; call ahead late in the evening. The menu on esh-mv.com is still the previous restaurant Dos Mas, down to the page title. Esh has published nothing of its own.
