The absolute best sushi by far in our area. Also has a varied and extensive menu so that all of your guests will have choices.You have a real feel when you're here that this is the community place to eat and socialize. A real one of a kind restaurant and a must visit when in NWCT.

My sister and I went here on NYE 2023. We loved the menu. Everything we got was delicious! The soup and the ravioli I for had black truffle and it was delicious!! My sister got their classic pistachio crusted salmon. She’s ordered it before and really liked it. She also got the beet salad that looked so pretty. I’m excited to go back.

Food good 75% of the time. They have a great selection, but would like to see them change it up a bit as we go often.

Brandon is an artist! He was my wedding caterer & I was beyond thrilled to find he was the new owner at Woodland. With him at the helm, this hidden gem is worth the trip if you're in Litchfield County!

Had dinner with my wife. Restaurant was crowded on Wednesday, rightly so. I had rack of lamb. It was prepared perfectly and not gamey. My wife had sole meuniere. It was a bit fishy and not traditional meuniere. It was served in a white sauce not butter and lemon. Service was professional and efficient. We will go back.
I will admit that my expectations hovered around lukewarm when I saw the menu online. An extensive New American-type menu with a sushi menu longer than half a page? I'm an Asian-American in hospitality. Eyebrows were raised.But guess what? I was humbled by this restaurant in the middle of nowhere. We had the truffle fries (thin and crispy fries), a sashimi special (most likely hamachi if I'm remembering correctly), skirt steak with Vietnamese-style herbs and potatoes, and the mozzarella ravioli with corn and mushrooms. Everything was fantastic, but I would have loved a light fish sauce dressing on the herbs.Dinner gets busy. Thursday night and every table was full. Sat at the bar and even that was completely full. Interesting crowd though. The older ladies next to me (meeting for the first time) were discussing conservative politics while a younger woman was explaining to another why she's obsessed with anything and everything French. Some diners seemed to be regulars, so that's nice to see in an area like this.The key lime pie was top tier. But by then I had several drinks and had the meat sweats. So worth it.

High quality food. Relaxed atmosphere. My wife and I were seated in the high top in the bar area. Wasn't exactly what we were looking for as it was a busy Friday night but it turned out to be a great experience. Lots of drink options. Make sure to book a table!

This place is a cozy little masterpiece. I kind of expected small portions: wrong, portions are hefty. The ambience is wonderful...very very warm and cozy. Only one caveat: be prepared to be REALLY close to your neighbor if you are a twosome. A number of tables are "bistro" size, and are unusually close. They do have some booths and more private separate tables...we were seated at one of the small bistro tables. Did not bother us but be aware. We will be back, hopefully very soon.

Food wise good. Environment great.But the only inconvenience is was the hostess Liam extremely rude when it comes to simply serve their guesses.I kindly ask her to please chance us for another table and she went off I guess she was just having a really bad day and took it with us.

By far the best restaurant in Lakeville. Staff is always kind and attentive, the the patrons friendly. My favorite dish is the Charred Steak appetizer. The dipping sauce is fantastic.
Had the spicy tuna roll, wedge salad and the sole. Best of everything!!
