We enjoyed an eclectic selection of dishes with an inspired wine choice by our server. The food was a treat and Nicole Z made our evening with her knowledgeable adventurous yet unobtrusive style. We love Hen of the Wood and Nicole has cemented our ongoing relationship with this standout establishment.

post pandemic pricing puts this place very close to $100/person, FYI. Food was good, service was slow, our server was unable to raise their voice above the din of the restaurant which was awkward, atmosphere is crowded and loud.

My favorite restaurant in Burlington! We did the butcher room for the first time as a group. I definitely recommend this even though the price was steep (220/person). The one thing that I thing should be changed is instead of champagne included in the cost, it should be a cocktail of choice. A lot of our group didn’t drink champagne or were looking for a non alcoholic substitution. All the food we got was amazing except the cabbage salad which we found to be a bit too bitter for our liking. The night started with oysters, prosciutto and Parker house rolls. Followed by the cabbage salad. We then had an amazing white fish dish followed by ribeye. Both were the best tasting food we have ever had. Good portions for a group our size. 10/10 recommend!

This was a delicious experience. We came from out of town, and we did not have a reservation. They were able to squeeze us in, and it was an excellent meal.

Phenomenal restaurant! Food, service, atmosphere everything was five stars. The staff was knowledgeable and kind. Everything was brought out the moment it was placed on the counter from the chefs. I’d highly recommend. Parker House rolls were to die for, the oysters were some of the best I’ve had, and the hanger steak was cooked to perfection.

I dined at Hen of the Woods while in Burlington for a bachelorette party in January. We dinned at the Butcher's Table and, while the food was great, the service was not. I shared feedback on our experience with the Hen of the Woods team and was blown away by their response. Not only did they offer to host us again, the also refunded our bill. This was an incredibly generous gesture and I appreciate that they took my feedback seriously.

I would rate this place 10 stars if I could. Best meal I’ve had in a while. Didn’t make a reservation, but turned up around 5:30pm on a Saturday with a group of 4 and was able to be seated immediately in the lounge seating. Each of us ordered one of the 4 mains and shared, steak and swordfish were REMARKABLE. Bathroom is fun!
