About The Homeport Restaurant
Open in Menemsha since 1930, more than 95 years, with a renovated patio and an oyster bar by the water; Seth Woods, founder of Boston's Aquitaine Group, and Eric Berke bought it in 2022 for about $3.1M, and Dolly Bourommavong is the culinary director. The 2025 à la carte menu runs $35–$72: lobster 'in the semi-rough,' Bass and Clam Chowder, fried oysters (reportedly the first in the US) and Key Lime Pie with a saltine crust. The raw bar does 'The Jaws' platter for $289, with 18 oysters, 6 clams, 9 shrimp, lobster, crab and tuna poke. The Back Door takeout serves lunch, and the lobster roll is the only thing on the lunch menu.
