“We walked in early on a Saturday evening to see if they had a table for 4 (after the restaurant we had originally booked looked grim...) and were immediately greeted with warmth and professionalism. They offered to create a 4 top for us in a quiet corner and whisked us to the table. The service and food that followed were both terrific. A great lesson in hospitality. Make people feel welcome and feed them terrific, straight forward food with attentive but not overbearing service and reasonable prices!“
“Great food. The appetizers were delicious. We had fried calamari with chorizos in a tomato based sauce that hit all the right notes. The ceviche was smooth, light, and delightful. We brought our own wine. One of the bottles cork broke and the manager was kind enough to remove the broken cork and put the wine in a decanter. Main courses were delicious and the churros and tres leches dessert were out of this world!.“
“Always a superb experience at this hidden neighborhood gem in New Canaan. Entrance is around back for those in the know. Warm and cozy with a friendly-family vibe. The Double Double Burger and Cheesesteak are as good as you can get. Cocktails are prepared by arguably the best bartenders in the state and they are exceptional. Service is efficient and friendly and managers are always around making sure the crowd is happy. Go once and you'll find you can't wait to go back!!!“
“I can’t speak highly enough about Elm - from the delicious food, to the level of care provided by every staff member, to the exceptional cocktails and hospitality provided by Hector @ the bar. We choose Elm time and time again to celebrate our most special milestones and memories, including our engagement party. 10/10 recommend Elm once and promise you won’t want to go anywhere else.“
“What a cute little place. With snow on the ground the setting could not have been more picturesque. We shared the Warm Brussels Sprout Salad, a Pasta with Eggplant and the Salmon. All were very yummy. If I was to pick nits, the Salmon could have used a little more zing.“
“Have lived in town for over 30 years, live within walking distance, and went here last night with my wife for the first time. What a mistake, as we should've been going here since it opened! Both of our meals were terrific, service was friendly, and atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. We're adding this to our list our regular dining spots and will be recommending to friends.“
“Awesome that they are open for brunch/lunch as we have always been wowed by their food but used to only go for special occasion dinners. Everything we have tried on the menu has been delicious. The food is innovative and always amazing. And the atmosphere is fun, love their space. We always pop in to the British product shop next door after lunch to grab treats which is an added bonus.“
“Townhouse is a fantastic restaurant! The atmosphere is chic and upscale, but not at all stuffy. There was a real variety of clientele from dates to families to a private event going on in their wine room (well-separated from the restaurant, just got a peek). Highly recommend the scallops.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options“
“One of the best experiences I had in a while, coming back to Connecticut after 6 years. Very friendly staff people were incredible. Staff stayed late even after they were closed. We were treated very well. We’re welcome to very well. Food was amazing.“
“Great atmosphere and great food! The restaurant is super cozy and the staff is very friendly. The food was absolutely delicious. We enjoyed the classic Taproot menu and everything else as great - special shoutout l to the venison which was unreal! They also have a great selection of cocktails and wine and very good desserts.“
“Canoe was a great find! The reviews were right - the food and ambience was perfect. My husband and I sat at the bar and we had a great time! The bartenders were knowledgeable and helped us with the menu. Kept the flow really nicely and we didn't feel rushed or anything. Highly recommend!“
“A jewel box of a restaurant. Intimate and cozy with great attention to detail from the food to the decorating. Owner, Michelle, is welcoming and pays great attention to ensuring her guests have a special dining experience.My friend and I had dinner there last evening and it was one of the most delicious meals I’ve had in a long time.Thank you for such a wonderful evening.Martha Spiegel“
“I have said it before and I will say it again. Olio is far superior than any other restaurant in the area. Everything from the Octopus and the yucca fries to the chicken parm and the pork chop are some of the best I have ever had. This restaurant always pushes the limits of innovation and always has fresh quality products (including the ingredients) on its menu. What puts this restaurant over the top is the home feel that you get from Steve the owner and chef. From the moment you walk in till the moment you walk out you feel like you are family.Highly highly recommended.“
“We had dinner this past weekend and the experience was phenomenal. We started with mark twain cocktails & burrata . The special Artic Char entree was delicious! Our server Patrick was so sweet and attentive! We will definitely be back ?“
“I came in after a great movie, Dune 2, feeling like a badass Rebecca Ferguson, Jessica the a Benne jesuit. The waitress, Ashley, our waitress got my vibe. She got some great calamari first. The burgers, yum! But Ashley. Ashley makes this place a badass landing spot for 65 year old women who really just want to be seen, heard and respected with a sense of joi devivre.“
“This diner just happened to be close to me when i was hungry. I was blown away with how clean it was and the customer service was amazing! Never once was i looking for a server! I had a breakfast burrito that was really good! I will definitely be back soon!“
“Match is one of our favorite weekend spots to have great food and great ambiance. The service is generally friendly and great.The steak tartare is fantastic as an appetizer or main course. The pizzas are good for anyone from kid to adult.Parking: A large paid lot is located behind the restaurant.“
“Now upon pulling up to this little spot one doesn't get a great impression. Its a small parking spot for a small restuarant...when walking in the feel of the place is homey yet a bit cramped. For some strange reason there are two different entrances to this lil pub which presents a bit of a draft issue in the colder months with people coming in and out of either side...other than the ambiance leaving much to desire the food was pleasantly good. I ordered the black cat burger which was slightly reminiscent of a rueben sandwhich with rye toast for buns, swiss,grilled onion,russian dressin....it arrived assembled and cooked to order. Nice size patty that was juicy flavorful and fresh. The onion rings were sparse but decent and all in all I would say it was good, I think that I might try it again in the summer for a better overall review.Edit: came back around the way here and the burgers weren't as good as I rememberedThe cod was a massive piece which is a good value but made for a clunky sammich. All in all its good but nothing that will wow you over atm.“
“They plainly spell out what is gluten free on their online and in person menu, which makes dining out as a person with celiac disease much, much easier. The food was delicious. My only complaint is that the French fry portions could be a bit bigger.Dietary restrictions: Thank you for offering many gluten free choices, especially in apps and desserts.“
“Oh my! As an insufferable foodie I was expecting the food to be good but didn’t think it would be SO…. WOW! The lamb ribs are phenomenal the scallops were insanely delicious The pork chop was perfection and the tuna seared to perfection we finished with the chocolate Budino of dreams the entire meal was phenomenal Serious 5 ⭐️ dining“
“On Sunday 3/17 my girlfriend and I attended Washington Prime to celebrate our anniversary. We were met by Webster who had our table prepared and ready for us to be seated. We ordered several appetizers and meals that were out of those world. The drinks and service was by far top 10 in Connecticut. Gillian and Webster went above and beyond to make our day a special day. We will return in a few weeks to enjoy another 5 star meal and service. Thank you sooooooooo much for making our special day an amazing one.“

“We were running late and when we call they accommodated us. It’s a nice chill diverse spot. I love Norwalk!. Hubby is a chef so I am always looking for a place to impress. This place did it. It’s a decent spot for just about any event. Get the wings, get the burger, get the drinks. My hubby said the linguini and clams were decent. The bread is fresh and delicious. Everything is fresh made. I will return to try more items and try the patio. Thank you for your hospitality. ;)“
“I just went here for a lunch meeting with a colleague. My friend and bartender/beverage director of EastEnd, Tim Bellantoni, told me they have one of the best burgers in Greenwich. He wasn't lying. For a single patty burger it was hearty without being too heavy and a great ratio of meat to bun (Kyle Inserra's words). It almost tasted like an elevated big mac. Love a phenomenal burger in a well furnished bar. It's a must try. Go check them out, Tell'em Mike Sent You.“
“The Cottage has quickly become one of our new favorite restaurants in Fairfield county! We had a cozy date night here enjoying our seasonal dishes! We loved the green goddess dressing and brioche croutons on our “Cottage Salad”. The wagyu brisket bao buns were also a highlight, and it was our first time trying squid ink aioli, which really exceeded our expectations! My fiancé ordered the Berkshire pork tenderloin, which was cooked perfectly and even came with a knödel (similar to matzo balls), which we thought was a great pairing! Their hand-cut tagliatelle was exceptional with lamb, labne, and a touch of mint. Desserts were equally as amazing as the rest of the meal! The broken meyer lemon tart was topped with a thick layer of meringue, and the devil’s food cake was topped with a bourbon caramel and paired with espresso mascarpone. The cocktails hit the mark as well, and I appreciated that they had a section for low/no alcohol drinks! Our experience at The Cottage was definitely memorable, and we highly recommend adding them to your list of restaurants to try in Fairfield county!“
“Warm & welcoming, and a really nice meal. The turkey meatloaf is off the charts excellent, which is hard for turkey meatloaf to do but you will thank me later. The space feels in need of a modest makeover & the physical menus were a little beat up. I'll definitely be back, but hoping a few of these minor details aren't signs of complacency.“
“We love this place!!! Not only is the food super fresh, healthy and delicious but the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Whether dining in or having it delivered - we’ve never been disappointed! So happy you are in Stamford!!Dietary restrictions: I’m gluten free and can eat almost everything here.Parking: So easy!“
“We had a delicious date night dinner out at The Spread. We sat in the covered, heated outdoor dining space and the lighting and fireplace made it very cozy and enjoyable. The food was delicious - we ordered smaller plates to share. The service was very attentive, almost to a fault. The bus staff was very on top of filling our waters the second we took a sip and taking plates the moment the last bite was taken. There were many staff members in the outdoor space that we felt that we were being watched as we ate, and they were ready to pounce and clear the table as soon as we finished something. We did feel rushed, which was the only downfall of the meal.“
“This was the best meal I ever had at a restaurant! Ditto for my husband also. The place was a bit noisy around the 5:30-6:30 dinner time, then calmed down after that. This was also the first time I had a hot fresh cup of coffee in a restaurant. It appears this is a popular place for friends and families to go. I am telling my family and friends the food is magnificent.Vegetarian options: I am vegan. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts were perfectly done and very tasty. The portion was large so I was pleased about taking some home. The kale in the salad was the most tender I ever tasted. The cranberries were slightly sweet, and there was avocado included in the Mediterranean Salad also, I added some of the Brussel Sprouts to the salad it was a perfect dish! My husband got a shrimp dish he enjoyed. The dessert was tasty and not overly sweet, I had a warm apple tart with Carmel sauce.My. husband got the chocolate Lava cake and loved it. The level of sweetness was perfect not over done. I had no guilt breaking my diet to celebrate our wedding anniversary! The staff are friendly and timely bringing your dinner and your bill in a reasonable amount of time.So go and enjoy this wonderful restaurant!“
“Overall an amazing experience!! From the warm welcome we received when we walked in, to the delicious food, to the amazing hand crafted cocktails, we had an amazing date night. The staff at The Ridges treats each table like family, and provides a 5-star dining experience. We will absolutely be back soon and can't recommend this amazing restaurant enough. The best in town!“
“One of the best Lamb burger I ever had in my life. Cooked medium to perfection.Fried oysters are also fresh and delicious.I wish I lived in Norwalk just because of this restaurant. Definitely going there next time I visit Norwalk and try their other dishes.“
“Our family is traveling to all the states and Connecticut is #50 for me so we needed a quick bite to eat and came here. The staff was amazingly friendly and so kind to make sure we had what we needed. I absolutely loved my spicy chicken salad and my son LOVED the chicken winds. Go here...you won't be disappointed!“
“Really enjoyed your restaurant, probably the best clam chowder I have every eaten and I'm a snob when it comes to food.Shout out to Stephany who helped me with getting a receipt I needed. She was not only helpful but very pleasant and a wonderful greeter for your customers.Parking: Depends on the day and time you come. It's in a plaza which is pretty busy.“
“Very good tasting food served in an elegant “New England type” dining room. French/ American cuisine. Among the appetizers, Deviled Eggs and Smoked Trout Rillettes were very good. The special ‘soup of the day' Celery Root Veloute was very tasty. Among the entrees, Olive oil poached Halibut and Pan-seared Scallops were very good. Among the desserts, Crème Brûlée and Cheesecake were good. Good wine list with some good wine-by-the glass options. Good service.“
“Amazing place, As soon as we walk in we got seated immediately and the atmosphere was amazing the smell of the food was already making me so hungry so as we got seated a waiter came up to us and was super polite and even gave my little sister a coloring sheet. We ordered a 10 piece wing, garlic lobster noodle, and a 20oz steak with mashed potatoes. The Wings was so so so so so delicious and was spicy and sweet with ranch and it was delicious, The lobster noodle was better, with butter and crispy string and lobster it was amazing and the steak was spectacular it was so juicy, and the mashed potatoes with the house cause with also so good, I hope I come back here.COME TO THIS PLACE NOW“
“I was at Bedford Hall today for a Good Friday lunch with family and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff were amazing, making sure the kids were comfortable and everybody had what they needed. The food was excellent and I have been getting messages all evening saying how much all my family enjoyed today.Thank you for the hard work, will be back on a regular basis.“
“Cozy little quiet place where I make sure to go have a lobster roll whenever in South Norwalk. Their lobster rolls are on the generous size and are to die for. The downsides are the high price and the ever shrinking (but delicious) sides that come with it. If money is not an issue, make sure that check it out.Parking: The street parking is scarce and I could only find either 15- or 30-minute limit“
“Fantastic sourdough and pastries (especially the croissants)Things are pricey but worth it. Quality is top notch. They focus on small details like using homemade preserves and nicely toasted almonds. The flaky pastries here rival France . Sourdough flavors alternate which make sono bakery a fun place to try new sourdough concepts. Some breads are better than others but all are good quality. Highly recommend the almond croissants“
“The beef chili was delicious and the service was warm and kind. Ample parking, lots of cool places to sit, and most importantly the staff was easy on us when our baby made a mess lol! Very relaxed nice environment.Kid-friendliness: def Kid friendly“
“Best place to dine at the SoNo Collection! Food is consistently good. I've had the salads with the roasted chicken. Instead of getting stringy, shredded chicken, the salads are topped with a perfectly cooked and seasoned chicken breasts. Brunch options are terrific; my husband loved his sausage and biscuits. Sandwiches are made with fresh ingredients - freshly baked bread, crisp lettuce and flavorful proteins. Kids meals options are great to accommodate picky eaters to more healthy minded families. Service is friendly and professional. We had a lovely conversation with our server, a young Egyptian-American who made us feel comfortable and made our lunch an enjoyable experience. After dining at Pinstripes and Yardhouse with mixed experiences, I can firmly say that Bazille is the best lunch option in terms of quality, value and service.“
“Had a Saturday lunch with friends and 18 month old twins-staff couldn't have been more understanding and accommodating. Had the turkey Chili- delicious! And went with the server's recommendation of beer (facehugger IPA), which went perfectly. Would definitely eat here again.“
“Visited One Twenty Three Restaurant after a tennis match. The exceptional waiter made our experience memorable. Indulged in delightful chocolate martinis and savored a delicious filet mignon. Special mention to the accommodating staff for promptly fulfilling my daughter's request for a second serving of pasta.“
“My favorite place to go for lunch of dinner. I normally get take out because the staff kind be really pushy about turning over the tables. I love the food and the restaurant inside is so nice both in the front and the back. However, i was there once on a Saturday with a friend who was visiting and waiting for one other person and they rushed us through multiple appetizers and main courses. The place was pretty empty so i was very annoyed. They were nice about it and plated everything but we were still eating. Again, great food for vegetarian and meat eaters alike but watch out for the waiters trying to get you out.“
“Always have great food here. Lots of very healthy but delicious options as well as more comforting options. The fish is always fresh and cooked to perfection and I love having the julienne of vegetables - very tasty and again, healthy. My vegetarian friend loved her main course too. Service is warm and efficient.“
“Shaved Brussels Sprouts. If you try nothing else, you'll be happy. But if you try anything else, you'll be ecstatic! Great food, loads of seating and a great bar. Owned by the same team that owns South Bay in Fairfield. Worth the trip.“
“Nice atmosphere. All the food we ordered was very good and portions were just right. The noise coming from the bar area was a bit excessive but luckily it didn't not last long. Service was really good. All in all a great place for dinner!“
“I love having a meal or three at the Lunch Box when I am visiting family in Weston. The service is amazing, the food is always delicious and it's a relaxing atmosphere. If only I could visit more often!!Kid-friendliness: The grandkids were entertained with their "lunch box" crayons and paper. They loved their meal of pasta made just the way they like it!“
“A perfect meal. Excellent service, delicious and creative food with quite a diverse mix of flavors, and charming space. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. I love their wagyu brisket bao buns but literally everything on the menu is worth ordering. You can't go wrong. Thank you, Brian, for this flawless restaurant!“
“The clam chowder was very creamy, maybe a bit too much. I enjoyed my lobster roll although the bread wasn't quite what I expected. The salad that came with the roll was the highlight of my meal. A taste of octopus and a scallop from the plates of my parents were delicious. I shared truffle fries with my brother, so it was a family affair. The service was nice, although one of the forks wasn't clean. The ambiance was pleasant enough and I liked the stained glass style windows. Table cloths and cloth napkins were a nice touch as well. The food I had was worth the price.“
“The did was fantastic!! We enjoyed the French onion soup, the hot dog and the smash burger!!-absolutely delicious!! For dessert… wow! The pretzels with chocolate syrup were great! Not too sweet, just right!! And the hot chocolate lava cake was wonderful! A great time to spend with friends!!!“
