“We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Aroma’s in Vermont! The food was exceptionally good—honestly the best we’ve had at any Indian restaurant in the US, and we’ve tried many across the country. Everything was so flavorful, fresh, and prepared with care.

The hospitality made our visit even more special. The owner was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure we and our 2-year-old son were comfortable. We regret not asking his name, but his kindness truly stood out. Ms. Sarita also came by personally to ensure we were enjoying everything, which added such a warm, personal touch.

We left feeling not only satisfied with the meal but also cared for like family. We’d highly recommend Aroma’s to anyone visiting Vermont and will definitely return on our next trip.“

“We made reservations for our large group ahead of time and they were very accommodating. The service was fantastic, keeping our drinks full and making recommendations from the menu. The food was all delicious, and everyone enjoyed their meal. About half of our group hadn’t had Indian food before but they all left as fans! The waiter was able to easily guide the vegan in our group to a variety options for him. We all enjoyed tea and a sweet at the end. We are so glad to have found this restaurant and will definitely be back!“

“D-best sushi in town and very friendly staff“

“Delicious, generous, and very nice. make sure to get a lemonade, you won't regret it.“

“amazing staff and food for my first time 5 ⭐ s“

“Restraunt is in a beautiful historic building , amazing food with a menu that is always adding items. Employees that have been there for years and years getting better at there craft. I can’t think of a better place to eat in the area.“

“Had a good meal here. We used a bunch of gift cards so dont know if i would return if paying cash. Food was good! Soup and shrimp apps tasty and large. Salads fresh. I tried the steak tips with mash and it was good. Most others had filet which was decent. Keep expectations lower and you'll be pleasantly surprised.“

“We love the Essex and come here every time we travel to VT. The staff are responsive and friendly, the rooms are clean, cozy, and comfy. The one warning we would give is to say that the price that you book for is nowhere near what you get charged for at checkout. There are extra add on charges on the bill that “tax” your imagination. Just be sure to ask up front.“

“Great service!! Food is fantastic. Love that we’ve found a place that makes Vietnamese food like family does! So delicious ♥️“

“Met a friend here for lunch and a long chat. This was a great spot. It's a very simple looking place with deli style ordering at the counter and cleaning up after yourself, so you don't feel at all rushed. I had the buffalo chicken salad and the Old World Bread dippers and was not disappointed with either. My friend comes for the jambalaya. I will be back to try one of the Cajun dishes...then the pizza (which looked great at the table across from us).“

“Always fresh and delicious!“

“🥰Fantastic food and the best server in years. Thank you Leah.“

“Simply the best sandwich place around. The bread is absolutely delicious and is what pushes their sandwiches to a 10/10 instead of just an 8 or 9. Everything else is cooked and made perfectly; excellent portions and reasonably priced. Service is fast and tireless, they work hard and it shows. I don’t often tip for pickup service, but I always will here, and at 20%+. Highly, highly recommend Paisley Hippo.“

“Food was horrible, 6 empty bins. When we complained they said they were getting ready to close because of weather so they stopped cooking. I asked why we are being charged full price she responded, "You lucky we open" No! you're lucky I paid the bogus bill of 52.00 for lunch for 2. Oh, they now add on 18% gratuity automatically, you have no say about it.“

“My daughter’s favorite restaurant. Food is great, people are great, we love it here.“

“Delicious salad, shrimp scampi and ahi tuna avocado toast!“

“Great food, friendly service, very reasonable prices. That's what keeps me coming to Papa Nick's, usually once a week (more often in the summer). And I have to drive over the mountain from Fayston to do so. I love this place--Voula does a fantastic job. I just wish they could some day go back to having their Greek Nights on Thursdays. (They do have occasional Greek entrees but it's just not as predictable as it was before the pandemic. Then again, nothing is...) Highly recommended!“

“Food is consistently good! Fast service and very delicious. They always make things exactly how you want them.“

“Usually have a great time there. Our first bartender Matt was fantastic. Very personable and made us feel welcome. The second one, Brendan not so much. He definitely did not have the right attitude for the hospitality business. Maybe he was just having a bad day?“

“My family has been coming here for years. Both my girls worked here and we have always appreciated the level of consistency that Mimmo's food offers. Always fresh, hot and delicious entrees and salads. Most recently I have been sitting at the bar while I wait for my take out order and have had the lovely privilege of being waited on by Simone's partner. She is a fireball with the best customer service skills I have encountered in Vermont or anywhere! Everything she does is to make the customer feel attended to and she does it with the most energetic and positive effort! Mimmo's never disappoints!“

“The food and customer service is always good. One of our favorite places to go.“

“Super-fun experience at the culinary experience at the Essex Resort in Essex, VT. Our instructor, Denise, led us through the recipes and techniques to create a wonderful Vermont dinner that included roasted root vegetables, braised chicken (in dark beer and demi-glacé) with shallots and a variety of mushrooms, and a lovely kale salad. We were given the opportunity to decorate autumn themed sugar cookies as well as dip tiny apples into a luscious caramel coating. A small group of 9 students made the experience very intimate. Our meal was served with wine and fresh bread accompanied by an herbed compound butter. Denise was a perfect instructor and I would recommend the experience to anyone who loves to cook.“

“Nice cozy little place. Great selection of Vermont brewed beers. Burger i had was excellent. Cooked perfectly. It's a small place but they max out the number of tables in there. It may get busy on the weekends as I was there on a Wednesday night. If I'm in the area again I'll definitely be back“

“Great service. Drinks always full.“

“Excellent,absolutely exquisite cuisine....“

“Ok so my Husband and I decided to try Grazers. Neither one of us felt like cooking and it had been a while since we’ve actually had a date night. I had a family relative that used to work at Grazers… And doesn’t anymore…. And they love to talk all of the smack about this place… And weirdly forbid anybody from going… I never listen… #thuglyfe. They tried to talk crap about the staff and everything…. Try talking about how crappy the food was… Everything. But me being the rebel that I am decided that I wanted to do this with my wonderful Husband. It needs to be noted that I was not dressed for going out… I was literally in sweatpants and some ratty T-shirt. Behold world here’s your beauty Queen. I couldn’t be bothered to do anything productive on this day. I wanted to have, but I did not want to sit in any restaurant or be out in public, period. And I did not feel like paying for Uber eats or DoorDash. So it was me and the sweats against the world on an adventure to get some hopefully delicious takeout for something that was hearty and filling. And so was my Husband…. Who had the AUDACITY to not even leave the house! I’m looking RIGHT AT YOU BABE…. So anyways I get there and it’s packed, I thought it would be chaotic inside… and I just didn’t wanna people! But, when I got in there, maybe ten people. And it was a flippin WIDE open space with simple chairs and tables, a stage, a bar, and a hard floor… kinda chilled air…. Which I assume would make people eat more to warm up. Music playing…. So anyways the stage, they have live music, maybe comedy shows? I dunno what else…. Oh oh oh! I thought this would be a good place for trivia night. So I asked if they do trivia night. Spoiler alert, they do… Tuesday nights! You won't see me there… I've never done a trivia night… But if that's the kind of thing you're looking for. You will have fun doing it here. I was wondering why it was packed outside and not inside but I think that them and Planet Fitness does swing shifts on crazy occupancy. Now let me get in on the staff… I don't know who they think they are being wonderfully optimistic and personable, but these people clearly enjoy their jobs… And clearly enjoy making the food. In this pessimistic, cynical world that's not gonna fly. So if you're looking for a positive atmosphere, where people are chill and talking to each other like actual human beings… Look here… But if you're looking for a place that makes you wonder if you had wrong them at some point… This might not be the place for you. Laughing/talking/general joyfulness, it's almost TOO MUCH TO BARE! so anyways, he got the Vermont Cheese Steak with the toss greens on the side with ranch… he also wanted that chicken sandwich too… the Grazers Hot Honey…. Which turns out you cannot just order the sandwich… So he decided he was going to go all out and get the sweet potato fries with the honey mustard… Now let me tell you I tried the bite of the chicken sandwich and had some sweet potato fries with the honey mustard… Mind you that chicken sandwich was hot and sweet and salty… It hit all the right notes. Took honey mustard and just make some honey with whatever mustard seem to be laying around. Hubby Bubby jazzed it up with some hot mustard from the sauce drawer…. (Omfgggg🤜🤛) I think the Vermont Cheese Steak was good… I didn’t see him even take a bite, it just transported to his stomach…. So I think he likes it…. It did smell delicious. I had THOUGHT I was ordering the Farm Burger (mmmm over easy egg) with fries… BUT!!! And this is a big but here. I accidentally ordered the BARN Burger…. What’s the difference? (one flippin letter….😒) Well I’m so glad you asked. Delicious egg over easy on top, versus jalapeños and pickled onion jam packed in there…with the effing seeds! Oh sweet Jesus. I’m not a baby, baby. But I was miffed. I had to look at the menu to see if it was my fault or THEIRS. I was ready to internalize my Karen and be polite outwardly… But I realize that for the third time in my entire life, I had been wrong with something. “

“absolutely the best service from Lisa in Williston Vermont I've ever had . Thank you Lisa . The food is always spot on . .Cant ask for a better place to sit and watch the game and have a drink . 💞 Thank you 💞“
