“I went to Whitlock's a couple of weekends ago and had the absolute best meal. I ordered the French dip and it was mouthwatering good. My server's name was Tisha and she was honestly one of the best server's I've ever meet. Her smile light up the room and she went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I were happy from the time I walked in, to the time we left. I would recommend Whitlock's to anyone who hasn't been.“

“My husband and I tried Bora Restaurant for the first time last night. It was excellent!! The food was delicious, the decorations were beautiful, the atmosphere was warm and cozy, all of the staff that we encountered were young but surprisingly all so very well mannered, polite and very nice!! Our waiter was Alton, he did a wonderful job and always addressed my husband as Sir. We would definitely recommend this restaurant!!“

“We hosted my daughter‘s bridal shower at J Law and it was everything we hoped for. Clara, Megan, and the entire team were attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. The private event space was ideal, spacious, welcoming, and flexible enough for us to personalize with our own decor. The food was delicious. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere made everyone feel at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for another celebration. Thank you, Clara and the J Law team for helping us create such a memorable day!“

“My absolute favorite place“

“Great atmosphere and the staff are all hard working. The family that owns it are wonderful people! The brunch was amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone!!“

“To start with, I love the thick menu! I love that they give the back stories on the local products/farms they use. And the plethora of options make certain that both my husband and I can find something we like no matter what we're in the mood for. It's also nice to go to a restaurant that has more than the same 6 things everybody else has and to know those items are made with locally sourced products. I can end with a cupcake made from scratch which also supports another small business instead of something premade from the same manufacturer everyone sources their desserts from. It's a win for me!“

“Exceptional dining experience. Our party of eleven showed up on a very busy day and The Barn Door never skipped a beat. Food:A+, Service :A+, Friendliness of Staff:A+. If you plan to dine in the Ridgefield/Redding area area, the Barn Door is where you want to go. Ron & Denise Mangano Essex“

“Great New addition to the Ridgefield scene. All the food was excellent with the Filet Mignon being the star of the evening. Wines served by the glass were wonderful and complimented the meal well. The service was attentive, on point, and not intrusive at all. The ambience was enhanced by the music playlist that brings up the vibe of the whole place. Job well done!“

“Applebee never disappointed me. First I was taken away with the ambience , the music was playing soft and no loud noise. I love the variety of stuff you can choose from and the various combos they had to offer. The steak was really nice and I enjoyed every bit of it. My long island ice tea drink was amazing. I definitely recommend. 10/10“

The hospitality was top-tier — attentive, welcoming, and genuinely thoughtful. Every detail was handled seamlessly, which made the entire night feel effortless and special.

A huge shoutout to Julian, the bartender, who was phenomenal. Friendly, skilled, and engaging — he elevated the entire experience and kept the energy perfect all night.

If you’re considering a private event or special gathering, I couldn’t recommend Nouveau Monde more highly. Truly exceptional.“

“After a kids party, I was looking for someplace that entertained me and my tastebuds.
We hit the nail on the head as we decided on Craft Kitchen and Bar. We came for the food, stayed for the tasty, delicious margarita, my favorite drink! As a special appetizer, we got the haloumi with peaches. It was pure flavor fireworks. I then ordered a house sald with grilled chicken. It was so fresh it practically waved hello. The grilled chicken? Tender, juicy, and full of flavor.
Even my kids, who are normally culinary critics of the highest order, gave the chicken tenders and fries a standing ovation. Craft Kitchen and Bar, you’ve officially spoiled my taste buds, and my margarita standards! We will be back!“

“Have been coming to this exact chilis location for years now. I own a business in Danbury and I tell all my customers and friends whenever there is a sporting event going on let’s go to chilis to watch. The manager Brett is always so welcoming and makes my party and I feel like family everytime. I will be a returning customer for as long as I live in Connecticut!“
