May Kitchen + Bar

$$ Fodor's Choice

This is where sophisticated foodies swoon over delectable and highly authentic Thai dishes. The ambience is scene-y (atypical for Vashon): dark with fully paneled walls in mahogany and teak—wood that owner May Chaleoy had shipped from Thailand, where it previously lived in the interior of a 150-year-old home.

The Oystercatcher

$$$$ Fodor's Choice

A dining destination for foodies from across the Northwest long renowned for its local-inspired cuisine, the Oystercatcher features a simple menu that's heavily influenced by local in-season ingredients. The intimate, romantic dining space in the heart of town is a favorite spot for special occasions. In 2023 the restaurant changed hands, with new owners Ben Jones and his wife Sophia Jones taking on the roles of executive chef and wine program management, respectively. They've expanded the wine list with a focus on sustainability and added a five-course chef's tasting menu.
