New American Restaurants near Avon, CT

“What a nice place! Hidden gem. I drive by this restaurant almost on a weekly based and finally had a chance to have a nice dinner with my girlfriends yesterday. Food is amazing, drinks were fantastic and our waitress was super nice. I highly recommend this place. The restaurant is about 8 years old but building itself was established in 1757. It’s like dining at the museum. Loved it!“

“This place was beyond amazing. I have been here personally for food with friends before but never for an event. I used this place for my 2 month old baby’s baptism luncheon. (On st Patrick’s day) Shannon, the event manager was absolutely fabulous to work with. She even followed up with me after her first email since I have a terrible memory and forgot to reply to the first outreach. She made the whole event super easy and seamless. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate that. I am a new mom with a 2 month old so complicated processes will never get done. Shannon made everything super easy and friendly. She was available by phone and email. Any questions I had she comfortable to ask and when I changed the salad she made it seem like it was nothing. I cannot say enough great things about her. (P.s this place was extremely well priced too for absolutely FABULOUS food) The day of, we were 30 minutes early and the room was all ready for us and let us choose whether to be in the room or hang out at the bar. Jackie was our waitress and she was amazing! I am a neurotic mom who can’t remember anything and she totally helped me out. When I was walking around talking to guests she brought the drinks to me. She was beyond professional, kind, helpful and nice to all of our guests and us and our family. We got TONS of compliments on Jackie and the food. We got the bronze package and replaced the salad with a Cesar salad, the chicken plate, steak and pasta bolognese. Delicious! They were the perfect portions and super tasty. Again, we cannot say enough great things about Jackie! We had extra people show up and within moments she had spaces created for them. She and her team were great and I hope she knows how wonderful she made the day!“

“Best Italian wedding soup i ve had so far !!! ♥️“

“sunday brunch was nice. food was good service was efficient“

“Great place to eat and socialize. Friendly and low key vibe. I love their smash burgers and fries, maple chicken, shrimp tacos, and more. Staff and owner are great. You can do take out orders too.“

“I really cannot find the right words to describe the experience you will have when you dine at this gem of a place. It is our "go to" when we want a very memorable evening. From the minute you walk in the door you will be treated like you are the most special couple in the room. Every person that works there goes above and beyond. You almost feel like you are in Europe at a little bistro. And to think it is right here in the lovely little town of Tariffville. Thank you for the wonderful memory you help create.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brunch done right at Fork & Fire in Farmington. Fresh oysters, perfectly executed breakfast sandwiches, and a bread plate that absolutely delivers. You can tell when a kitchen actually cares—and this one does. Full bar with a strong bourbon selection, great cocktails, and a space that just feels good to be in. Whether you’re at the bar, a table, or a booth, it works. Service was on point, food came out right, and the overall vibe hit exactly how a weekend brunch should. If you’re looking for a spot that balances quality, price, and atmosphere without trying too hard—this is it. Highly recommend checking it out.“

“Amazing tacos on taco Tuesday! Full plenty of meat for 3 tacos. The truffle Mac and Cheese is also delicious - highly recommend! Service was also amazing and quick.“

“Had dinner at Gather 55 last night and it was the most pleasant dining experience and best food I’ve had in months! Crystal’s service was excellent! She is a master at her craft! Not only was the experience worth every penny, the mission and purpose of Gather 55 is wonderful! I wish we had one in TN!“

“My hubby and I went for dinner here with some friends and had a great experience! Best mussels I ever had in my life and we both loved the fries too! Service was friendly and quick, especially for a party of 8 people. They also have some innovative mocktails! Highly recommended!“

“We decided on the Fabulous Tasting menu for our 10th wedding anniversary! Our waiter Jack was so nice, not rushed, and each course was spectacular in flavor and presentation, and along with the atmosphere, it was a perfect night 🌺🌹🍸“

“Had the best time and food! Our first time here and we sat at the bar. Drink special Simple Plan was tasty with a spicy finish so just right! We loved Tuna Tartare. Best tartare ever and we are not kidding. Poached Shrimp Tostada was good too. Spicy Caesar Salad delish to the last bite. We finished with Salted Caramel Crème Brûlée which was well balanced sweet and flavor tasty. We talked with others at the bar about their dishes and those got good reviews too. So we are looking forward to coming back.“

“This is a wonderful restaurant to host a special event at. My 40th birthday dinner was wonderful. The service was top-notch and they even gave me a bouquet of flowers in a glass vase to bring home!“

“The service is consistently amazing, and the staff are genuinely kind, warm, and attentive. It’s clear they care about their guests, which makes every visit feel personal and relaxed.“

“Great day watching soccer!“

“I had dinner tonight at Soma Grille and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The patio is absolutely beautiful and creates the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing evening outdoors with the beautiful fire pits, greenery and the fountains . The setting is charming, comfortable, and one of the nicest dining patios in the area.

Aidan was an exceptional bartender and was attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout the entire meal.

For dinner, I ordered the Raw Bar Tower with the Dungeness king crab leg clusters, and it was fantastic. Everything was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The seafood was the star of the night, and every bite was delicious.

Between the gorgeous patio, amazing service, and outstanding food, Soma Grille delivered a memorable dining experience. I highly recommend it for a date night, special occasion, or simply a great meal with friends and family. I’ll definitely be back.“

“We had my daughter’s baby shower at Lola’s. From the start of booking until the day of the shower. So easy to work with. The day of the shower, we were greeted with such warmth and truly our waitress for our party, Becky, was fantastic. Catered to our every need and was so beyond helpful. She worked very hard and was so pleasant! The food was amazing and plenty of it! Guests went back for seconds! Becky even went above and beyond for my mom who couldn’t eat something and prepared a new one just for her. Truly a gem of a place! Thank you again to the owners and to our waitress who went above and beyond for making our day so perfect! We can’t wait to come back! Kim Landeen“

“Great food , vibes and atmosphere.“

“We felt the food and atmosphere were great, definitely a bit more of a fancy place than we normally go to. A bit pricey but the food was very good. My only issue and the biggest reason we most likely will not be going back is they do not have or offer a kids menu and were not very accommodating to kids. I understand it’s fancier place to eat but I was very unprepared when I had my son with me not knowing they did not have a kids menu. He ended up eating French fries for dinner and I had to go home to make him something else.“

“Went for my first time and holy hell, these wings are great! Got the smoked ones with garlic sweet chili and honey chipotle flavors, and both were amazing! The texture is really good, and while they’re a little on the smaller side, i just wanted more. The philly rolls were also pretty good, and the drinks were solid and reasonably priced. Gonna be introducing more people to this place for sure.“

“Evergreens is the main dining experience at the Simsbury Inn. Many Wedding go on simultaneously and rea held by reservations way in advance. The dining quite is very fine. Fine dining is very expensive for most. Evergreens is elegant and vey well sought after.“

“Ever since I discovered Benny’s , I don’t go anywhere else for breakfast! The atmosphere is cute and cozy! The staff is friendly and the owner is always around making sure everything is done accordingly! Most importantly, the food is delicious!“

“Beautiful atmosphere, service was very good . Food was outstanding and very fresh . Chef is very talented with great presentation. I would highly recommend !“
