New American Restaurants near Stratford, CT

“5 ⭐️We went here to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from Sacred Heart University. Their location in Trumbull near the college was over an hour wait. Found out there was a second (original ) location in Stratford, On the phone they told us to come right over, they were waiting for us. When we arrived they welcomed us with open arms, were super friendly and super attentive. They treated my daughter like a super star. The food was delicious and the cocktails were so creative and tasty. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.“

“The trading software is really effective with so many good features, and I find it super easy to use. The signals are reliable, and the services are great. I highly recommend Mr. Ralph Carico as the most profitable and reliable trader. I've had good profits and fast withdrawals. The trading brokers are highly commendable. Overall, I've had a great trading experience for the past few months with him. I'm really happy and satisfied. Thanks to Ralph Carico for his assistance. You can contact him for more information.“

“I stopped here for dinner after shopping at Bass Pro Shops/Cabelas, it was a good little find. I had some clam chowder and steamed clams, both were very good, they had good beer on tap too. Place had a good blue collar New England fisherman feel to it, great bartender, and its location felt like the kind of place which may be next to the dock the seafood is unloaded at. I’ll be back especially if riding my motorcycle on the CT turnpike as this place also appeared very friendly towards bikers.“

“I just had my birthday at Parker’s yesterday and let me start off by saying; the ambiance, the food, the service everything was a 100/10. I had never been to this restaurant before and before booking a reservation i had a quick chat with the manager. He ensured me that he would take good care of me and my family and they did not disappoint! The food was very delicious, the drinks were strong but tasty, the scenery was absolutely beautiful. It’s a very spacious restaurant and perfect for occasions or just stopping by for a quick lunch! I definitely will be back, thank you again Parker’s for a great birthday!“

Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Was in the area with my buddy for a concert nearby that we traveled almost 4 hours for and we decided to try this place out since it was on the way to the venue. The exterior and appearance of the restaurant looked clean and neat. As we walked in the door we noticed Whiskey, Burbon, and Rye Specials on the screens noted with the states they are from (Bonus points for having some Vermont brands listed). We were greeted and seated by our waitress (i apologize i forgot her name) and she was absolutely wonderful! Very attentive to her tables, and friendly as well. Once the food arrived i was even more impressed. i got the 3 mini cheeseburgers and fries with a soda which came to about 20 bucks. Heres the thing, normally i would dread paying that much for a meal especially if its from Applebees, Chilis, etc where the chef is basically a microwave. however, from what i could tell these burgers seem like handmade fresh beef patties and they were flavorful as well. the buns were perfect and fresh as well. I was not able to finish my meal due to having a late lunch earlier in the day which saddened me because of how good my meal at Plan B was. I know theres a very slim chance of it happening but i would definately be in favor of a Vermont Location if you were to ever expand. 5 stars, absolutely no complaints“

“Great Lunch at Marketplace!! I made a Reservation since it was a Friday but there were plenty of open tables if I had not!! I don't go out for a nice Lunch very often!! Our server was very attentive and answered our menu questions!! They even split our dessert into 2 plates which was wonderful!! I only wish there was a Lighter Lunch Menu. Loved my short rib grilled cheese sandwich!! Yummy!! My friend loved her Salad Bowl, too!!“

“Tried the Lobster Ravioli and I’m still thinking about it. The sauce had lobster, shrimp, and scallions mixed in, and it was packed with flavor. Every bite was creamy, savory, and full of seafood — exactly what I was hoping for. It felt indulgent but still balanced. I also appreciated the small details around the restaurant. I didn’t even notice the outlet and purse hook at first, but that’s such a convenient touch once you spot it. The pricing is reasonable too, especially considering the quality of the ingredients. Nothing felt overpriced. From the food to the atmosphere, everything just came together nicely. I left happy and full, which is always a win. Definitely a place I’d recommend checking out.“

“Been coming here for 15 years, current squad of employees is the best Ive ever seen. Front of the house employees are on point, all the time, they are polite and speak clearly at the drivethru as well. Kitchen staff always fast and accurate. Bravo“

“Just had my daughter's Bridal Shower there, it was fantastic... The staff was incredible, attentive and lovely, the food was great and plentiful. Our guests had the best time and loved the restaurant. Highly recommend!!!“

“Showed up ten minutes before my guests for a birthday party after being let down by the original pub we had reservations at. The staff at the Blind Rhino were fabulous in our last minute request despite it being a busy Sunday football afternoon. Food was great! Will definitely return. Go Bills!“

“The pretzel, tacos, fishbowl drinks, and cocktails were all fantastic as well. This is definitely the place to go if you like to have a good time, especially with karaoke on Tuesday nights and a Sunday brunch with DJs. The staff was super friendly too!“
