New American Restaurants near Shelburne Falls, MA

“The Blue Rock is lovely. Perched on a promontory overlooking the river, the dishes we had were well-conceived, perfectly cooked and presented. Cocktails were refreshing and flavorful.
We started with maiitake toast, which was gorgeous and in late September a great use of the wild-foraged bounty. We had the duck with cherries and pomegranate, perfectly-cooked, garnished with mashed potatoes and squash cooked two ways. The salmon with soubise sauce was nice (perhaps a tad more pureed onion would make it perfect?).
Because the Blue Rock is the only restaurant of its type open on a Monday, the staff was busy, and very friendly. We felt no pressure to turn the table over and it seemed that diners were happy to relax and converse over good food and drinks for the evening. We will definitely return to the Blue Rock. Reservations highly recommended.“

“Classic sugar house in an updated location. I’ve been going to the William’s family sugar house for 50 years back when it was on my parents street as Mt Toby sugar house. Today I had a nice pancake breakfast with the family, finishing with sugar on snow. They do need a bigger dining area - a lot of people hovering waiting for tables which takes a bit of fun away: But as a fellow small business owner I can say that’s a better dilemma to have than too few customers!“
