“We go to the location in Queensbury, New York for the gluten free sandwiches very often. We drive from 45 minutes away just to get the sandwiches so I think that says a lot! Nice staff, great store hours (open late). The area really needed a 24 hour store. It’s doing a lot for the community!“

“We’d flown across the continent from Vancouver to New York, and drove up from Midtown to New Canaan to see something quieter. The moment we parked on Elm Street, it felt like the right destination. The name might belong to old horror movies, but the street was nothing but calm. My wife called it “cute” about a thousand times, and she wasn’t wrong.

We walked the shops, stepped in and out of small storefronts, and followed a narrow back alley when hunger finally caught up with us. That’s how we found Back End — tucked away, sunny, and exactly where it needed to be. The November air was cold, but the day had a clear sky that made everything feel sharp and clean.

Service was friendly and quick. The room had an easy rhythm — warm decor, high stools, tight tables. A space used well. Fun without being loud, relaxed without slowing down. Sometimes you stumble onto a place that matches your mood perfectly. This was one of those.

We shared tacos, Nonna's meatballs, and chicken dumplings. Every plate landed. Simple dishes done right, seasoned with confidence. Nothing heavy, nothing forced — the kind of food that keeps a conversation moving and a day on track.

Back End fit the afternoon. A hidden spot in a quiet town, found by accident on a long trip. The kind of place you remember because it met you exactly where you were.“

“This is one of my favorite places to eat. The food is terrific, the owner is a great guy, and the prices are reasonable. I love taking my family there. We can always have a healthy and delicious meal. If you have not been, your should definitely try it.“

“Highly recommend R House for a wonderful dining experience. What a treat to have Gerardo as our server - he was welcoming/attentive and lots of fun! The food was excellent from our appetizers/main course and panna cotta for dessert. But wait...yet another delicious surprise - a glass of limoncello...reminiscent of Positano Italy - bravo!“

“Around CT & NY Elm reliably holds its place with Pound Ridge, L’escale, Skittleman, Union League, plus honesty the coolest professional staff, blessed to have Elm 🌳..“

“Love, love, love this place. They are constantly changing up the menu. Awesome food. The carrot ginger soup this past week was amazing! Always look forward to weekend food!“

“For a restaurant that is so close to 5 star you can literally taste it. They definitely try hard to give you a perfect dining experience and that's commendable. The shock factor for this establishment was it's loud and partitions or background music isn't going to change that, so you lose a bit of intimacy. However if it's decent quisine you are looking for you may be in the right spot. The breaded and fried chicken was good and done correctly however the panko was retaining the flavor of the oil rather than it's own. The brussel sprouts were good but honestly it can do without the bacon bits(that were really hard for some reason). Too many minor nuance's for a five star but I believe the potential is there!“

We had a wonderful time.“

“I hosted a birthday celebration for my husband for 44 people on a Sunday early afternoon on June 7th at the newly refurbished Kittle House. The food was exceptional; the attention was excellent. From the waiters to the bartenders to the maitre' de, Leo, and to the event planner, Katina - all were professional. The historic presence of the Kittle House and the beautiful gardens added to the success of this event. I highly recommend this venue for special occasions. Unsolicited, all of my family and close friends expressed that the afternoon was perfect on all levels - service, attention, food, drinks, ambiance. Thank you Kittle House!“

“Everything we had was delicious!! Thank you!! ♥️“

“The portions are definitely healthy. More than not, you're going to take some home. I would recommend telling the servers to ease on any sauces or dressings or anything like that. Some of the food that's coming out has a lot of it on it. Great little corner for people watching.“
