Feather & Wedge

This intimate restaurant’s name is inspired by the tool and process used for harvesting granite, once a vital part of Rockport’s economy. Step inside for a clean, modern take on New England cuisine (and, from some tables, harbor views). The menu changes daily but tuna with house-fried rice makes frequent appearances. There’s also always an inventive vegetarian option, such as seared eggplant with quinoa and pickled onions. Seasonal bread pudding is a worthy ender. Overall, it’s a much-needed addition to a limited restaurant scene. Definitely reserve in advance if possible.
