28 Atlantic is located in the large Wequassett Resort and Golf Club, a place that has several dining options.  28 Atlantic is their signature restaurant  and is the only Forbes Five-Star restaurant in the region.   It is located in an 18th century sea captain’s home overlooking Pleasant Bay and the Atlantic ocean.  Chef Jame Hackney is in charge of the kitchen but did not greet the guests.  The large dining room is obviously an add-on to the old captain’s house with floor-to-ceiling windows taking in the view.  The while cloth covered tables are ample in size and set with comfortable upholsterd chairs.  A fireplace was lit on one side of the room  but the high ceiling made climate control necessarry.  Carpet and sound panels in the ceiling kept the noise at an acceptable level, especially since the only generated noise was from the television running in the adjacent bar area.  On a less rainy/cloudy day the view would have been stunning but we didn’t luck out with that.  The room seemed sterile and more like a regular ‘special occassion’ place.  The wine list was of poor quality too.  The menu offered a 7-course tasting menu or a fixed price 2 or 4 course meal.  The 2-course had no dessert, the 4 came with 2 firsts, one second and a dessert.  We chose the 4 with our own bottle of wine.  Service was efficient and friendly but didn’t know much about the food.  If you have a large party this would be a good option but otherwise I wouldn’t go again.
