Wonderful friendly and attentive service. Beautiful views of the river. Great ambiance and nice spot. I always enjoy the quinoa salad with grilled chicken. Would be great to have fresh avocado rather than the mousse! My friends always love the truffle fries.

This is the perfect place for a bridal shower. My daughter was so happy with the pretty setting, excellent food, mimosa bar, etc. I've never had so many compliments from guests...everything worked out beautifully. Thank you, Jeff and Antonio, for seeing to our every need. Eric, I enjoyed working with you to arrange everything and am so grateful for all you did, like matching the color of my daughter's wedding to the menu and sourcing an excellent cake. Lynn, you were so kind and patient with my many phone calls before the event. During the shower you kept us on track, anticipated our needs, and made excellent suggestions. Thank you all.

I took the family there for Easter brunch. Completely over priced for mediocre food and service. Actually, the food and the service wasn't even mediocre. It was horrendous. My prime rib came out, cold with the mashed potatoes and a big slab of fat that was never shaved off in the kitchen. My son got eggs, Benedict, the eggs for hard when I asked if they could redo it they said that they were extremely busy and backed up in the kitchen... Really not the answer that were looking for from her paying $65 a head for an adult and $35 a head for kids. In the end, they took one adult and one kid off the check, which was fine. The food service manager who I ended up having a quick word with was very blasé about the whole thing and really not to apologetic. Having worked in food service and customer service one capacity or another for well over 11 years in Los Angeles, I expect much more than what we got, especially when you're paying those prices. I would not recommend this place to anybody, despite the ambience of being by the water. you are going to get a much better meal at Shake shack down the street.

What a gorgeous building! We were running late and the staff were super patient and accommodating. Our server Michael was great and oysters and 2 pasta dishes were delicious. Will definitely be back! Thanks!

The food was horrible, but the waiter was good , and the atmosphere pleasant. The crab cakes were all bread crumbs, no crab. Far worse than any I've ever had. The supermarket is much tastier! Imagine that. The lobster risotto had very little lobster, and what there was was low quality bits . The tofu farro stir fry was poor too. The apple strudel was not strudel pastry but chopped apple wrapped in dough, not good. The restaurant needs a new chef. There's no excuse for this minimal “preparation” at a lovely, full service restaurant.

Lovely evening with high quality food and phenomenal staff.
It was a three stars type of night. I came here for dinner with my friend. Everything was mediocre which I am surprised. My previous experiences have been great. We came on a Friday night yet service was very slow even though the restaurant was empty. We both started with the butternut squash soup. It was fine. Nothing to write home about. I ordered the seafood pasta and my friend got the lobster roll. Both were mediocre. The only thing good were our drinks. I’ll come back again one more time in case it was an off night for the chefs. But we spent almost $100pp so I had hoped for a really good dinner. I unfortunately it wasn’t the case.

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!
Excellent food, serve hot and delicious. Friendly service. Great ambiance! Quiet for good conversation with no one yelling to be heard! Perfect place for a group of friends to gather.

Quintessential Connecticut view at this restaurant. I love sitting in the Adirondack chairs in the back overlooking the Saugatuck River! Food is great too!

The food, drinks, service and ambulance were so wonderful. Dined with friends. My husband and I had the kale salad, French onion soup, branzino,& the lightly fried chicken breast which was delicious, moist and not greasy. Highly recommend

Our experience at the restaurant last night was perfect. We sat on the porch and the weather could not have been better for outdoor dining. The food and service was also excellent. We took advantage of Restaurant week, and that made it a fabulous value.

Very expensive especially for drinks. Great location but 18$ for margarita that 50 pct ice???
