An elegant Cape Cod pub, the Wianno Grille opened its doors in October 2005 with the intent of combining a menu of unmatched cuisine with an equally unmatched dining atmosphere. The back-lit exterior leads you into a cozy interior, complete with mahogany booths, marble bar tops, private function room, and plasma screen televisions throughout the restaurant. Wainscoting adds warmth to the room, as does the large brick fireplace and blue candles lit nightly at every table. There is an original painting of a Wianno Senior by local impressionist Sam Barber on one wall, the wheel of a boat on another and a half ship’s model in the foyer.

The decor celebrates the famous Wianno Seniors which were originally designed by H. Manley Crosby in 1914 (the downstairs function room is named after him). The classic gaff rigged sloops were created to sail in the shoal-ridden sailing grounds common to the Cape and were a favorite of three generations of Kennedys. The boat became the standard for one-design racing in the area and was the inspiration for the name of the grille.

The dining is a delicate balance between fine and casual. The fare is exquisite using local organic ingredients. >> View menus
