“Hadn’t been in the area for quite a while so decided to try sn old favorite. What a wonderful experience. First the place is clean and warm ( the fireplace was going but not what I meant) and was warmly greeted. Sarah, our waitress, was attentive and friendly. A page of specials and the regular menu was presented. We enjoyed a bit of home baked bread just as I remembered. A white and a molasses bread, both delicious. No appetizers as we are not giant eaters. I had the swordfish which was grilled to perfection with done grilled zucchini and tomatoes with a bitter green salad with a lite vinaigrette to balance the other flavors. My wife had a delicious grilled salmon cooked as she likes it with a mashed vegetable side and vegetables. Both plates were licked clean. Although dessert is not something we eat always, we decided to share the carrot cake with a dollop of cream cheese frosting. It was baked in a ramekin which was special. Even the coffee was fresh brewed for me. The attention to detail is appreciated. This locally owned restaurant is a real gem and we wish we lived closer. We will definitely be back next spring.“

“My brother in law arranged for our family to gather here for lunch after gathering at Hammonsett in rememberance of the first anniversary of his wife, my sister's passing.We were not rushed in any way. The staff was very attentive, and my clam chowder was fantastic. We were all very satisfied with our lunches.“

“Overall good experience.Appetizer was crispy duck wings which were delicious and perfectly cooked.For the mains I got the poke and my girlfriend, the veggie burger w/ truffle w/ fries. The poke included fresh tuna and the rice was cooked perfectly, however in my opinion the sauce was too tomatoey flavored and overpowered the rest of the dish. The veggie burger tasted good but would benefit from the patty being a little crispier.Had the warm chocolate chip cookie w/ ice cream for desert which was lovely.Overall good experience and would go back. Means of comments above is suggestions to enhance what the restaurant has to offer.“

“this was a nice find during a work trip to Madison! it was so nice to see multiple vegan options in their freezer section - i eat mainly plant based so i was overwhelmed in the best way. everything in the freezer is clearly marked... WITH INGREDIENTS LISTED on the label. i got the vegan meatloaf and curly fries. the prices were pretty good, too, even in this inflationi want to go backVegetarian options: vegan options in the freezer! ingredients are listed on each entrée, which was nice and you don't see thatDietary restrictions: they have gluten-free and i believe keto (or was it paleo?) options available“

“This place is such a hidden gem. Delicious food and good gluten free options. Honestly one of the best burgers in Guilford! Sitting outside in when it is nice out is peaceful and relaxing and the outdoor furniture is pleasantly comfortable!“

“We had a nice meal here before the show. I had Salmon with Grits, meatballs, crab/crawfish cake, and cheesecake. They had a nice IPA (Capt Lawrence) as well. A friend liked the chicken creole and my wife had the beet/walnut salad with salmon and enjoyed it. We're not in this area often but when we are this should be a place to return to. Very nice.“

“Stopped by for lunch while travelling through the area and was a much better option than the chain options. They have a small building I almost missed as driving by - had to turn around to go back. I highly recommend the burger with spicy mayo and a side of potato salad. Some great options for those that like seafood too.“

“Truly one of the best meals I’ve had in Connecticut! The French onion soup was AMAZING—the combo of caramelized onions + crispy onions was ? plus the gruyère!The duck was melt in your mouth tender with an incredible pepper crust, seared to perfection. The crispy polenta cake was also done really well. The swiss chard + pancetta added a nice, zingy contrast.For dessert, I had the turtle cake which was fluffy & moist with caramel + candied pecans.Big kudos to the chef & kitchen staff! My server was also very kind & knowledgeable. The manager graciously sat me at a lovely table even though I was a solo diner.I left my phone at the hotel, otherwise I’d share pics!“

“Nestled across the street from a venerable shoreline favorite, the Turtle Cafe is another absolute gem. Chef Ricky and Mariah, who was at the counter, were extremely welcoming and make for great conversation. The menu is vast and all of the food was amazing. I had eggs Benny with a side of hash, I highly recommend this place.“
“My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Chef Paul’s “Valentine’s Dinner” The concept is fine dining at home. Highly recommended.Excellent food prepared with imagination and care and to a particularly high standard. In my opinion the food beats any restaurant in the area, all without the hustle and bustle of the 14thAn exquisite pre cooked four course gourmet meal was packed neatly in little pans for finishing cooking, and serving.The instructions were precise and easy. We popped the included little pans in and out of our 450 degree oven for specific times, one item after another …allowing us to pace ourselves as we chose.High quality, imaginative and delicious dining at home!!“

“First meal here with my husband for his birthday. The entire evening was relaxed and very delicious! We cleaned our plates and polished off a few very creative (beet!) cocktails, but the nicest part was the card for my husband that was waiting on the table when we arrived, wishing him a hand written happy birthday singed by the staff. That extra special touch was just so thoughtful. We will for sure be back- with friends!!“

“This is like a sports bar but it was crowded but they were able to seat us. Nice atmosphere. Great service and great food. INhad the make your own burger and it was big and delish! My friend had the buffalo wings and she loved them. We had a gin and tonic and it was 10 dollars but it was big and delish! I definitely would recommend this place to stop and eat!“

“Dined here with a party of 15. Private room upstairs was the perfect size. Wait staff was extremely accommodating and helpful in planning and executing a surprise for my father's 70th birthday. Only down side was that our waitresses seemed overwhelmed and forgot to bring out salads. Otherwise, it was a fantastic experience and great food!“

“First time visit, great views of boats and river activity. Nice wine selections. Clam chowder was outstanding, not thick but more RI type with jalapeño slight bite, lots of clams, potato flavor. Mussels (white) with great well cooked fries great broth, would have liked more bread to dip in sauce. Quinoa salad was just ok. Fried calamari with cherry peppers was well done, firm not rubbery or too chewy. Will definitely return!“
“Wow. Delicious. Cute little diner off the side of the road, with the nicest people around. The breakfast sandwiches were fantastic. And the iced coffee has frozen coffee cubes! No watered down coffee for the drive. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Overall, it was a great experience and atmosphere. The location was amazing as well. The service was great. It was a blue grass weekend, and they had a live blue grass band and a special menu. Tried their pork ribs and crawfish. Pork ribs we great, but unfortunately, crawfish was served raw. We also tried their fried chicken and poppy seed salmon. Both were delicious. Drinks were well made. Will definitely be willing to give them another try.“

“Such a wonderful and cool place! Welcoming atmosphere with people who enjoy working there. They have a garden in the back and grow some of their own food. Those cherry tomatoes were the best I ever had! I normally don’t even like them. Their coffee and lattes are top notch. The baked goods are amazing also. I was there yesterday, they had a chocolate peanut butter cupcake and lavender shortbread, both delicious! Everything is reasonably priced too, this place can’t be beat. 11/10 recommend“

“Local sports bar serving standard pub fair: really good wings, sandwiches, and dinner options. The bar area is separate from the dining area. Very family-friendly with a good kids' menu. Even when busy service is fast and food comes out of the kitchen pretty quickly. Very affordable: a family of 4 can eat dinner for about $100 including tip and a few drinks.Kid-friendliness: Good kids menu with several options. We were offered activities to keep the kids entertained like coloring and small games.“

“First time!!We were in Guilford for the day and we stopped by here to have a couple of drinks.Calming and clean atmosphere.The bar seats maybe 12/13, there are tables as well.There is also a bar-like seating area behind the bar, that seats maybe six people.The bartender, Heidi was great!!She is the bartender that you want to have for a laugh, to listen if you need to talk, she was staying pretty busy - as the bar was full.Overall she had a great presence and I will definitely stop by to see her again, when I Guilford ?I saw a couple of dishes served and they looked really appetizing. We ate before we got there.Next visit I would like to try a food item.I was with a friend and we both ordered the Lindoo And it was really good. A very well-made drink.We were there for a couple of hours and we finished our visit with Heidi's specialty, and Espresso Martini... All I can finish off with is yum yum yum ?The bathroom was super clean and I definitely appreciated that.I was also given a cool little rubber ducky because it was my birthday ❤️Thank you again Heidi for everything!!You rock!Parking: I'm really not sure about the parking. This business is on a street next to other businesses. And we walked from the train station, so we did not need parking.I did see street parking and there is a lot in the back.“

“Visited here over a year ago and cannot stop thinking about the best ever Lobster Roll..... planing a trip to the region and trying to figure out how to sneak in a two hour side trip!Update: Still the best. Traveled the northeast coast and tried several other places and decided to change departure plans so we could have it again. We bragged so much that a couple of friends from New Jersey made the drive to meet us.“

“South Lane Bistro has been our favorite Shoreline restaurant since it opened!We feel like family the minute we step in the door. We are immediately greeted by their friendly staff, and two of the owners, Ariel and Walter, always make a point to come over to our table, no matter how busy they are! The coastal barn atmosphere is an integral a part of the warm, relaxed vibe this restaurant offers! South Lane is a mandatory visit when our adult children come into town because it's everybody's favorite! We love their burgers (with a Thimble Island beer!), but we're also partial to their seafood specials and Super Kale Salad. One of our children has celiac, and the staff and kitchen work together to provide many gluten free options- which we also greatly appreciate.~Awesome owners, wonderful staff and delicious food!! It’s a local gem!Done“

“A friend chose this location for her birthday dinner. Nice, varied menu. Everything the 4 of us ordered was very good. My spaghetti d'angelo was a generous portion that was not only aesthetically pleasing, but tasty as well. If you are in the area, give it a try.“

This was Monday at noonish.From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and friendly service.

“I stumbled upon this gem. I was in the area due to a loved ones Dr appointment and had time for breakfast. I was pleasantly surprised as I drove up to the restaurant and saw ocean views. Upon entering the restaurant, a nice cozy vibe came over me. I enjoyed a fluthy omelet prepared to perfection stuffed with fresh produce. I sat in a very comfortable booth with high backs near a window. There was a slight chill that made me wish I sat closer to the fireplace. The servers were pleasant and worked well together. This was a very pleasant experience.“

“I had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at The James Madison House, and I couldn't wait to leave a glowing review! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that instantly made me feel welcome.I want to extend a special thank you to our wonderful waitress, Alyssa, who went above and beyond to ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. Her friendly demeanor and attentiveness truly made our visit memorable.Now, let's talk about the food! The parmesan truffle fries were an absolute delight - crispy on the outside, perfectly seasoned, and oh-so-indulgent. Each bite was a burst of flavor that left me craving more. And let's not forget about the wide selection of tasty drinks! From handcrafted cocktails to craft beers, there was something to satisfy every palate.The atmosphere at the bar was hip and vibrant, creating an ambiance that you wouldn't expect to find in a quiet area like North Madison. It was the perfect blend of sophistication and fun, making it the ideal spot to unwind with friends or enjoy a romantic evening out.Overall, The James Madison House exceeded all expectations, and I can't wait to return for another unforgettable dining experience. If you're looking for delicious food, excellent service, and a lively atmosphere, look no further than The James Madison House. Thank you for an amazing evening!“
