Woods features the cuisine of Chef Galen Sampson—whose rustic, locally inspired, and incredibly flavorful dishes are driven by a sense of generosity and a respect for farmers and producers. Sampson, in partnership with the hospitality team led by his wife, will leave you feeling satisfied and completely taken care of. Whether you are dining alone, as a couple, or as a larger party with friends or family, enjoy the sophisticated, but down-to-earth, cuisine and service at Woods in coordination with wines from our carefully curated list.

Our restaurant offers a delightful night-out spot for couples and groups alike and features delicious dishes thoughtfully prepared with, when possible, sustainably sourced, on-island ingredients. The Menu provides a sampler as to what is served nightly, as it is subject to change.

We also have a private dining room perfect for special occasions and events. Please contact us at woods@lambertscoveinn.com for pricing and availability.

Overall, the food was delicious! The only complaint was that the flourless chocolate cake was smothered in whipped cream. The cake is the star of the show and the whipped cream should be an add on. Service could have been better. It was quite fast and we felt a bit rushed. We had to ask for some time between courses. Also, the server told us that she would come back to "top off" our wine glasses when the bottle was chilled and she never did. These minor complaints will not keep us away next year though! We're looking forward to another season.
