Restaurants in Litchfield

“One of the better dining experiences that can be had in Connecticut. Michelin star quality without the price. The staff is extremely personable and makes you feel as if you are the only person in the restaurant. They are very knowledgeable about the menu. The presentation and taste of the food is exceptional. The food is farm to table with fresh ingredients. The dining room is dimly lit and intimate. The experience has been consistent the 5 times that I have visited.”

“Amazing!!! I stopped in Sat. 3/9/24. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with ham & cheese in Gluten Free bread. They toasted the bread and the egg was cooked to perfection! Such helpful staff and so grateful for the GF bread. I will be back.????”

“The kind of restaurant I'll remember as a "must-go" for years to come anytime I'm in the area. I started with the peasant bread, and that alone would have made the visit worthwhile. The beet salad, grilled salmon, and homemade ravioli were uniquely flavorful and fresh too. Between the classy and casual ambiance, the fresh food, and the top-notch service/ hospitality, West Street Grill delivered in every way imaginable and blew past all expectations. The staff are so passionate about their craft, and went out of their way to ensure we had the best possible dining experience. The entire staff and owner couldn't have been more welcoming. I'm confident this restaurant will host memorable meals and special moments for years to come. 10/10 recommend- I can't wait to go back. Thank you for a lovely meal!”

“Incredible food, great service, and did I mention absolutely incredible food? They have so many vegan and vegetarian options which I really appreciate. The vegetarian breakfast burrito is amazing. The soups are great and everything on the cold salad bar is fantastic as well. Great for to go or dine-in, I recommend eating outside there's so much more space and it's very nice they have plenty of chairs and tables.”

“We had the most wonderful experience at Saltwater Grille on Saturday night! After accidentally liking the Facebook page for this restaurant rather than a similarly named one in my town, I’ve spent the last few months looking at the posts and thinking I have to visit this place. The opportunity came to bring someone special there for his birthday and it was just amazing. Having eaten probably thousands of meals in restaurants I can tell you that I met the best server ever - Suzy. She was attentive without being intrusive, personable without being over the top and she has an amazing sense of humor. The food was outstanding as well which rounded out a perfect evening! We’re already planning another visit up when it’s warmer and we can enjoy the patio and live music!!”

“It's not a Saturday morning without a trip to the Bakehouse. Sperlonga bread is outrageously good. Cupcakes, croissants and pies are hard to resist. Even the day old selections are still yummy”

“It has been quite awhile since our last visit to the Village restaurant, nothing has changed to our delight! Great Service, Good food and my favorite Fried Oysters is as good as I remembered. Such a wonderful meal in a charming pub setting in a beautiful town of Litchfield.”

“I've driven by Bantam Pizza for years, and I think before this only stopped once. It's a cute exterior, it clearly used to be a house with a big front porch. The restaurant has a front and side entrance, although the side opens into the table area and looks a little cramped. The front you have more space to take it in. It still looks homey, with a pizza counter in the back of the "sitting room". The menu is pretty big with selections. I ultimately chose a steak sandwich, which had meat that was well seasoned. The cheese ratio was pretty good for this part of the country, and the bread was fresh. The mozzarella sticks were exactly what you think they are, and a little oily. My poor shirt suffered. The Oreo cake was not made in house, but so creamy and chocolately, who cares? The waitress was really friendly despite multitasking while she worked. Check on a table, then unload a box of soda. Check on tables, bring something to the basement. Her speed and good cheer throughout was impressive. It was good food and a good experience!”

“They are located behind a gas station in Litchfield, CT. They rank up there with Bigfoot and UFO's in terms of things you might randomly find while driving. That being said, make the effort. Their pizza is awesome, with perhaps the most perfect crust I've had. Everything else on their menu is well done, too. Why does all the magic happen behind a gas station?”

“A Litchfield County gem! A family owned restaurant providing a family-friendly environment serving an assortment of delicious food! We were all so happy with our meals and the friendly service. Can’t wait to go back!”

“We traveled from Guilford to Litchfield to go to White Memorial and then to find a place for lunch. We spotted Patty’s with 2 minutes to spare before they closed and we asked if we could still order” sure, whatever you want”. Chicken salad on a crossiant and tuna on wheat and we were on our way. BTW- the chips were amazing! Friendly, clean, hospitable...thank you! If we are ever up that way again, we’ll definitely stop again- albeit a little earlier. Thank you! Janet and Rick”

“I order 2-3 times a week , always the same sandwich right at opening. Every time without fail Carrie picks up the phone with a Good Morning Melanie! Can I start your sandwich? The team and the food are top notch, all smiles. Such a great spot to live around the corner from.”

“This was such an unexpected gem! Great menu options, service was impeccable, fun atmosphere and the food was amazing. Want to go back soon to try other things! Go if you have a chance, you will not be disappointed!”

“First time there last night, and it was outstanding. Customer service was attentive, and the food was delicious. Best salmon and risotto I have ever had! We split some chocolate lava cake. Perfection! Highly recommend.”

“Great Mexican! We loved the street corn queso with adult Doritos! Yum! If you like cocktail shrimp- it was best I’ve had in Litchfield county with gazpacho! I had a double order for dinner. Finally cocktails - we enjoyed the spicy margarita & red blood orange sangria! Definitely coming back! Don’t miss this place!”
