It’s been a few years since we’ve been and I sadly have to downgrade my review. We were seated for about 15 minutes when we were asked hurriedly if we wanted drinks and that someone would be with us shortly. Drinks came but it took about half an hour from when we arrived for our order to be taken. We watched tables around us seated at the same time have orders taken and their delicious corn bread served while we sat. Seems we were ignored or forgotten about.Food came quickly after the order had been taken but the long overdue date night with the wife was degraded by then.Food was good. Drinks were ok.

Fantastic experience here! Cozy, warm, and with friendly service, and everything we ordered was excellent. Definitely will be back.Kid-friendliness: Go early with a well behaved kid, and they’ll be well taken cars of. There’s a kid’s menu with appropriately priced kids classics, and the staff dote on kids. Just go at the beginning of service, I’d say.

Thoroughly enjoyed the appetizers. The wait staff while extemely solicitous did not listen to our specific request NOT to bring the entree until we were done with appetizers. Old freinds reuniteing were trying tohave a leisurly dinner together. The entree arrived along with the appetizers and then when returned as being too early was clearly placed under a heat lamp to keep warm. The entree was then presented 15 minutes later ( whenb appetizers were completed) and was luke warm and not as it should have been had it been freshly prepared and timely presented. A very unfortuante endng for what started out as a delicious meal.

We’ve been several times now and have not had a bad experience. The specials are always a highlight of the entrees from our group. Our server is always friendly and attentive. Cannot recommend more!!

We had a WONDERFUL dining experience last night (4/13) -- our server, Patrick, was the BEST. He made the evening fun, had the best smile and sense of humor. The food was incredible, the drinks were perfection. We will be back again (and we will ask for Patrick!). Six our of five stars!

The best restaurant in Ridgefield! The menu changes seasonally and is always fresh, inventive and delicious. The staff is amazing - so friendly, welcoming and attentive. We absolutely love going to Bailey's - it never disappoints!

Perfect for dinner before the show at the Ridgefield Playhouse. Nice staff and very tasty meals. Could use a couple of more choices on the menu. Prices are steep in the dessert and drink sections. Ambience very cozy. Staff courteous and attentive.

Absolutely superior food. Exemplary superior quality of ingredients and excellent presentation. Food fit for a foodie However, there could be a few improvements. Order is taken by a "server", but they do not serve. A kitchen staff comes to the table holding dishes and asks who gets what dish. Dishes should be served by server who know what was ordered by whom.

I was disappointed by the price to quality ratio. Ordered the chicken dish and found it quite salty, and bloody and raw inside the chicken. The waiter was incredibly nice. The restaurant itself was simple and did not feel as quality as the prices reflected.

I came to Bailey's for Ridgefield's 2024 Restaurant Week, and frankly it was a brilliant decision. Bailey's is next to the entrance of the public parking lot, and does have outdoor seating in the sidewalk with fire towers (at least they were there in February). The interior is deceptively big - there are two rooms with tables. The food was amazing - the brussel sprouts tostada I still think about, the sprouts were cooked so well and seasoning done perfectly. The complimentary cornbread only made me sad because I had to share. A little crumbly, but homey and welcoming! The waiter was very friendly, but couldn't really explain the surprise "kitchen fee" that came on the bill that apparently is not part of the tip. In most situations I would have lowered my score of the restaurant, but I enjoyed the meal that much. If it was on the menu, I missed it and that information should be mentioned at the beginning of the meal.

I would not recommend take out from Baileys. The food is poorly packed and always is soggy. Their food is incredible if you are eating at the restaurant - but horrible if you take it to go. Ordered avocado toast and by the time we arrived home (less than a 10mins trip) it was complete mush. This is third time we have ordered take out with the same poor experience. So disappointing. We love their food and in-dining experience.
