OWNER
We invite you to join us in the warm inviting atmosphere of a historic 250 year old farmhouse, with casual yet professional service, outstanding cocktails, wine and beautiful inventive dishes cooked from as close to the source as possible.
Opened in the Summer of 2018, The Pheasant was the dream of owners Adam & Erica Dunn. Four years after Adam co-founded a successful seafood business in Brooklyn, Adam & Erica had grown tired of City life, dreaming of ways to relocate full time to Cape Cod. Adam and Erica were married in the Fall of 2014 at the Cape Cod Museum of Art.
At The Pheasant, the focus is on sustainable locally-sourced dining and gracious but approachable hospitality.
Our Chef sources the best of local and seasonal ingredients to create dynamic and bold flavors and made-from-scratch menus. We are committed to using only sustainably fished and farmed products and all of the seafood on our menu is wild caught, seasonal, and landed in local New England waters.

Erica & Adam Dunn
Owner
After co-founding a successful seafood business in Brooklyn, Adam & Erica had grown tired of City life, dreaming of ways to relocate full time to Cape Cod. In the Summer of 2017, the couple noticed The Red Pheasant had been listed for sale and believed they had finally found their opportunity. Adam & Erica Dunn are incredibly excited to build upon the legacy and are looking forward to making new memories for customers.
Adam and Erica were married in the Fall of 2014 at the Cape Cod Museum of Art and have a deep relationship with the Cape and more specifically the town of Dennis.

Erica and Adam at The Pheasant are true professionals. Together with their chef they recommended excellent food, wine and cocktails for a welcome party of 165. Our guests were blown away! Some of the comments included "best oysters ever," "corn chowder in a shot glass was out of this world," "most delicious BLT on a roll," and "best wine selection and delicious signature cocktails." The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The indoor and outdoor spaces are welcoming and the vibe is perfect for a party. This was the perfect venue!

Erica and Adam were terrific to work with and our daughter's wedding at the Pheasant exceeded our expectations. The food and service was outstanding and it is an ideal place for small intimate weddings. Would highly recommend!

The Pheasant did the most amazing job on our wedding! They did a happy hour in their garden area, a 5 course meal in the dining room, and then s’mores and affogatos in the fire pit area for dessert. Adam and Erica are the nicest people ever and they made the event go off without a hitch! Guests were remarking on everything from the amazing oysters and charcuterie setup, the spicy margaritas, and the attentive service during dinner! I would write all day about how great this place is!!!

The Pheasant hosted our rehearsal dinner on 8.31.2019 and went completely above and beyond. We held a ~50 person dinner and opened up the restaurant to all our wedding guests for a welcome party following the dinner. Erica and Adam were wonderful to work with and just awesome people all around. We provided some general guidelines and they crafted a beautiful menu and custom cocktails for both events, thoughtfully accommodating vegetarians/vegans. They even created a beautiful tented outdoor space to create more room for our welcome party and allow guests to enjoy the nice late summer weather. The whole process was stress free and the restaurant coordinated directly with my wedding planner for many of the details including florists, etc. Couldn't recommend the Pheasant more enthusiastically for hosting an event in Dennis!

Our son recently got married in Harwichport and we held the rehearsal dinner at The Pheasant. It was fabulous. The food and service could not have been better. The owners were so accommodating and saw to every detail. Would highly recommend!

We chose The Pheasant for our wedding rehearsal dinner on 5/25/19. Adam & Erica are so welcoming and offered to give us a tour of the place before they were open one day. We immediately fell in love with the atmosphere of The Pheasant. It is beyond cozy and the smell of firewood is always lingering. They did a beautiful job renovating the space, but also preserving the original flooring and wooden beams. We immediately made a reservation for dinner for the two of us, and since that day their food has impressed me more and more each time. We also had valentines dinner there and we paid for the optional wine tasting that went along with each course.
Our rehearsal dinner was in their “flower room” where there’s barn doors that close for privacy, and huge window windows that give you a view of their garden. Prior to the rehearsal, Erica, Adam, Chef Toby and their restaurant manager sat down with us to go over the menu selections and also helped us with wine pairing for our selections. The week of the rehearsal, we were able to drop off our flower arrangements for the tables and the few other details I wanted to be included. They printed up their menus customized to our names, and we had purchased their hot sauce as gifts to each of our guests (highly recommend the hot sauce, it comes on the side of the oysters as well). The table was beautifully set up, I couldn’t have pictured it better. The entire dinner went smoothly, the staff is always attentive, and the meal was incredible. I highly recommend the pheasant for any occasion.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We used this place last year for our rehearsal dinner and they were amazing!! The food was truly better than the actual wedding reception food at the venue!
We loved it so much that we just went back a year later during our anniversary weekend trip.
The owners, Erica and Adam, have done an incredible job with this quaint, farm to table restaurant. The food is fresh and delicious, you can definitely taste the difference, the quality is exceptional! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and again, the owners are fabulous. My husband and I plan to go back every year when on the Cape!

The Pheasant is a hidden gem in Cape Cod! The food is delicious, and they have the most lovely semi-private space called the Garden Room.
The owner's were lovely and let us customize a menu, including signature cocktails. Most certainly check them out for rehearsal dinners, welcome drinks, or a bridal lunch!
