The Cardboard Box - Oak Bluffs

Large cocktails, but hardly vegetarian options. The bang bang cauliflower is rather blande, so you won't be deceived with the name, but the truffle friars are delicious. Try the cocktails. Very comfortable location and they also had a live band later in the evening.

Ben and his crack team of servers killed it last Saturday night for the annual holiday celebration for Vineyard Gardens. The restaurant was decorated for vacation, the food was impeccable, Kate and the staff were extremely helpful and everything flew as you always hope to become a party. After that, DJ Pretty Ninja (Erica Davies) fell down after a set of great dance music until everyone was exhausted. Talk to Kate about the reservation for your next party, you will not be disappointed.

I took my mother out to dinner this summer and we had an excellent meal and service. I am a big fan of BBQ and the ribs did not disappoint. I feel it is important to mention the amazing owners of Cardboard and Oak Bluffs. From personal experience, I know they truly care about the city and its residents. Knowing the dedication of the community-minded owners and witnessing Ben and his team over the years, I chose this restaurant for my mother's celebration. I want to express my gratitude to our server who worked a double shift, the chef for preparing a delicious meal, and Ben for creating such a wonderful establishment for us to enjoy. Thank you. (Sorry for the delayed review, August was a hectic month for me but I'm back on track now).

I didn't eat here, but I ate a drink outside on the terrace. The cardboard box is a cool place to get a drink in OB.

We had an amazing dinner at The Cardboard Box tonight! Whenever we visit Martha's Vineyard a few times a year, we always make sure to dine at The Cardboard Box and Red Cat Kitchen. Despite the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic, we were pleasantly surprised by how easy and safe the takeout process was. The online ordering system was convenient, and the contactless pickup was efficient with clear communication via text. The food was absolutely delicious, as always. The ribs and cornbread were beyond words, and the crab cakes, pot stickers, Jambalaya, and caprese salad were all outstanding. We even ordered some chicken tenders for lunch the next day, which were perfectly seasoned, and the french fries were crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. If you're ever on Martha's Vineyard, make sure to dine at The Cardboard Box or Red Cat Kitchen – or better yet, try both! They are conveniently located across the street from each other, within walking distance from the Oak Bluffs Ferry terminal. This is truly the best food you'll ever have.
