New American Restaurants near Mystic, CT

“A culinary delight! I took my family to Oyster Club on a Saturday evening after some shopping in Mystic and had a wonderful experience. The oyster happy hour was fantastic. As a raw oyster enthusiast, I was elated at the quality and price. I had a dozen oysters myself and had to stop myself from getting more- they were SO GOOD! The blackfish I had for dinner was excellent. The ramp hummus was a real highlight. For dessert, we had the maple ice cream which was the most delicious ice cream I have ever had. It was a real treat to come here. You can tell that the food is made with heart and served with genuine warmth and enthusiasm. I’ll definitely be back soon.“

“From our hostess to our waiter Lee and our friend and server Carissa the service was impeccable. The food was fantastic, creative and delicious. I can speak of the seared squid...perfection.“

“Must try, when visiting Mystic! Go multiple times and discover something new to enjoy on each visit!“

“Our server Randi was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. She is a real p.lus for your business. The firecracker shrimp was amazing.“

“The food was very good! My husband and I shared the Lobster roll it wasn’t overly buttered , you can taste the lobster. The atmosphere eas nice and service was good.“

“We love going to the Mystic seaport and this was a great pub! The food was terrific and the beer was great. You order inside of the counter and they bring it to your table outside. They also have indoor seating. Would recommend if you are going to see the historic village.

Kid-friendliness: Great for the kids because you sit outside.“

“Our server Poppi was wonderful along with her coworker – I believe her brother. They brought delicious food, and she brought the kindness, smile and joy which was the cherry on top of a wonderful restaurant with a wonderful ambience.“

“Arrived in town and craving a good chowder. While here we also ordered the crab cakes and grilled swordfish. Done to perfection with excellent seasoning. Heirloom tomato and watermelon salad was a great starter. This hotel restaurant did not disappoint.“

“Wonderful staff and amazing food! I’ve never had a bad experience. The use of local produce keeps the menu continually evolving, seasonal, and exciting.“

“Our #1 favorite place to eat! Very friendly with outstanding food, and a wonderful atmosphere.“

“My favorite place to go at Mohegan Sun Casino! I had the chicken and waffles, my Daughter had the lemon chicken … delicious!“

“Great little place with really good food. If you enjoy real food you'll probably like this place. I had a feeling they were going to be special when I saw that french fries were not an option. I opted for turnips and baked beans with my ribs. Also got the Thanksgiving sandwich. I'm so glad I found this place so close to home and will definitely return.“

“Sunday Fundays are the best!!!!!“

“I’d give this place ten stars if I could. Here at the Mohegan Sun Casino for a work conference. Decided to stop in for dinner, unbelievable!!! Was alone so I sat at the bar. No request was too big for the staff. Worth every penny. MJ is the 🐐“

“01.26.25- 'Big Al's Reel Reviews' - Little Galapagos Restaurant ❤️ City of New London ❤️ I dropped into The Little Galapagos Restaurant this evening to review a couple of their popular menu items which were Chicken Wings, Thai Chilli Sauce followed by Carne Asada Ecuadorians Style meal that was actually really Dope ❤️ however the Chicken wings were not great at all so they earned a Thumbs 👎🏾 The atmosphere and service was really dope there and I am sure that had I ordered anything else on the menu besides the Wings would have been just as good as the Carne Asada. This is a great place to have a great meal and a dope light experience at the same time 😎 Thank you, Little Galapagos Restaurant 119 Broad St. ❤️ City of New London ❤️ ☝🏾❤️ -Big Al Mayo 'Always Keeping it REAL to REEL'“

“Sept 16 Par Four hosted the 45th Class Reunion of Fitch High School! The sunset & cool, breezy evening was matched only by the excellent wait staff and delicious buffet! We all had such a great time!“

“Very good food & atmosphere. Only complaint is that the service was very slow. At least 30 minutes before our lettuce wrap/Korean beef appetizer came out. A salad with scallops & rice/ beans/ vegs with salmon came out another 15 mins after. $60 total for the 2 entrees.Bill came to around $90 with tip.“

“My wife and I had the tasting menu with the wine pairing. There is a fish/meat or vegetarian option. The first course was tuna crudo with radish kimchi; the second course was a warm crab bisque; third course was a choice of monkfish or lobster; fourth course was scallops or Wagyu (with Japanese A5 Wagyu an extra $65). We had all of the dishes, and all were really excellent. The base level wine pairing was totally on point - incredibly well chosen to go with the food. The cheese course was fine, and the desert was really good. The wine list is very impressive. It was a great meal, but it is not cheap - dinner at a top of the line Relais and Chateaux place never is.“

“We had a reservation for dinner on a Saturday night at 6 so no wait time to be seated. No issues finding parking, they have a small parking lot in front and in the back that is reserved for their customers and other shops in that building. Menu is upscale American overall everything was good. I was disappointed they were out of the mussels I was looking forward to trying those. Deviled were beautifully presented, hush puppies were delicious and the pan seared scallops were cooked perfectly.“

“Calm atmosphere and beautiful beach view. The food was okay - soup quite salty and sandwiches quite greasy. However, we really loved the cocktails and lattes we had with our meal. Would have also been nice if the occasion on our reservation was acknowledged by a staff member“

“Great local club. It’s been in great shape the last 2 years! Very good staff and lots of local members.“

“The food is really good for bar food. The wings, egg rolls and nachos are the best. The service is exceptional. Kaitlyn is amazing. We have been going for quite awhile now and have developed a friendship with her she is absolutely the best. When you go ask for her you won’t be disappointed. She is so friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is easy to get a wheelchair in and out.“

“Food was delicious. 10/10. Would highly recommend and come back when I’m in the area. Service was friendly even tho I did take out. Everything was packed neatly and included utensils.“

“Catering plans for my daughter's birthday party fell apart the DAY BEFORE the party. Tony and the Pizza Lady bailed us out and provided great food (at a great price) with less than 24 hours to deliver. Amazing. I am impressed, grateful, and fully endorsing Pizza Lady as your next caterer (or movie-night Pizza Party).“

“good food but over priced for what you get. probably won't go back.“

“Awesome place. We were in town for a USCGA event and stumbled upon this excellent, fun place.
The food was amazing, our waitress, Aria, was fantastic, and the two IPAs I tried were great.
I am kinda unique amongst IPA guys in that I despise hazies, so I was thrilled to find two nice and happy westies.
The one thing I found a bit puzzling was there were no TVs.
We will be up in the area quite a bit, and I am looking for a place to watch the NFL!“

“My husband and I are both gluten free. The gluten free pizza is the best. We love the chopped Italian salad and order it every time we come. The service is awesome, too.“
