The Canopy Restaurant

The food is outstanding and unique. This place feels cozy and warm. The service we got from Randall was amazing! Ashley is a friendly and personable staff member as well!

What a beautiful historic home to enjoy a delicious meal in. Ashley, our hostess and server, was so friendly and provided excellent service. I had the Braised Pork Bowl (see photo), and others I were with had the Salmon Bowl and the Bahn Mi Sandwich. All of our meals were gourmet! Really fresh ingredients and really good flavor pairings. If you are looking for somewhere unique in Darien to dine that serves elevated cuisine beyond ubiquitous "fried shrimp," this place is a must try! I can guarantee you will back again and again.

Just had a breakfast bowl. Excellent food. Friendly service. Loved sitting in the old dining room of the historic house. Not ostentatious. Recommend to anyone interested.

Quaint little restaurant with limited menu. Food was fresh and delicious.

Amazing all around. Highly recommend any meal here. Randall was great and the chef’s clearly care about the food - rare occurrence these days.

Cheers!

Decided to give this place a try and I’m so glad I did! I ordered pork belly lettuce wraps, nigiri, and the tenderloin. They were all amazing. The lettuce wraps had great flavor. Nigiri was so soft and melted in your mouth. My tenderloin was the best steak I’ve ever eaten, so tender and flavorful and cooked evenly and perfect. They also gave us a freebie to try that was some sort of noodle creation and was delightful. I did have to ask what a lot of things were on the menu because they have such a unique menu. Give this place a try if you’re in the area. Prices are fair and food and staff are wonderful.

Amazing restaurant in a beautiful old home - breakfast is the best in Darien. Lunch and Dinner are well worth the visit also!

My grandparents took us here for lunch while visiting Darien. The atmosphere is so homey and comfortable. The menu offered flavors we’ve never had before and absolutely LOVED. Megan was a joy to meet as well. I got the Salmon bowl, being pregnant I had to have them cook the salmon extra for me. The food, experience, and staff were exceptional

Dinner was disappointing. Small portions, expensive for what was served - 3 scallops on little slivers of daikon for $32. Rice was totally bland tasting, salad had avocado on it that was way past its serving date. Flat iron steak was tasty. Bread board consisted 4 slices of toasted bread and 2 small dinner rolls for $15. We will try them again for breakfast or lunch, but won't attempt another dinner.
