“Amazing food and waitstaff and environment! It doesn’t get better than this!“

“Had a great meal as always at Liv's! We love the food and service. When we arrived it was a little chilly, we notified our server we were cold and it seemed others were too and he requested the manager increase the temperature a little. After that, everything was perfect! One little nitpick is the tables are very sticky. We noticed it last time too. Not sure whether the coating failed or what. They were not ‘dirty' just sticky. Other than that, the food was amazing. My wife and daughter both had a Halibut special. My daughter had the cauliflower soup which I tried and it was spectacular! I had the tuna tartare and a ribeye and they did not disappoint! Certainly am amazing meal and great service. Thanks Liv's!“

“Incredible, innovative, creative, fresh fine dining experience.“

“I go here almost every Sunday and no matter what time it is the staff is always happy to serve you. They are so kind and always want to start a conversation even after two or three times go in they recognize you. and the food is absolutely to die for.“

“My Wife and I visited for our date night this week. We've lived in the area for 7 years, and somehow always found a reason to not give Cafe Routier a try. After visiting, our only regret was that we waited 7 years to come here for dinner! The service was top notch. Very professional and highly attentive. Our dinner was equally as amazing. We tried items from the spring menu, and stuck to the Iberia region offerings. The Moroccan half duck, Lamb Kefta, and Pollo Pepitoria were all delicious and extremely well prepared.Highly recommend, and we look forward to making an excuse to visit Cafe Routier more often from here on out!“

“Best services with friendly staff“

“This is like a sports bar but it was crowded but they were able to seat us. Nice atmosphere. Great service and great food. INhad the make your own burger and it was big and delish! My friend had the buffalo wings and she loved them. We had a gin and tonic and it was 10 dollars but it was big and delish! I definitely would recommend this place to stop and eat!“

“From the moment we walked in we had great service. We arrived 30 minutes early to our reservation and they were more than happy to take us back right away! Our server was outstanding. She gave us the perfect amount of attention and allowed us to order as quick or as slow as we needed and take our time to have conversations while she snuck in to fill our beverages. The food was fresh, delicious and full of wonderful flavors we don't get at home! We will definitely be back next time we are in town!“

“Fantastic spot for breakfast or brunch. Please be aware that the space itself is very small, however, the food is fantastic and the service time does not dwindle no matter how busy it gets. I absolutely would recommend the Apple brûlée French toast and the Lobster Benedict.“

“If you’ve never had Bananaroni Pizza you don’t know what you’re missing. The beer is good, the food is delicious, the staff is very friendly, and the atmosphere is great! Highly recommended!“

“Had a wonderful birthday meal. It was the day before St. Patrick's Day so the specials were Irish oriented. My husband had the whiskey honey glazed salmon which he said was very tasty. My daughter had the traditional corned beef and cabbage and my son had Shepard's pie. Not much was left to bring home in doggie bags. Lots of nice wood paneling inside and we were seated near the fireplace. The grandkids even enjoyed it.Parking: The restaurant is right off of Route 9 in Old Saybrook. There is parking in both the front and the back of the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: Walk up ramp for a cess to front door and outdoor seating when the weather is nice.“

“Love, love the food and staff of this fabulous breakfast lunch restaurant!Great specials. The sausage and biscuits best in CT.The homemade muffins and breads out of this world! My favorite is the Cinnabon bread. Yum!Outdoor seating if you have a dog with you.Right on Main St, Deep River if you want to pop in one of the local stores after very nice unique gifts and clothing.“

“Excellent!! Crab cake appetizer was the "best I've ever had" according to my son. There were four of us and all were very pleased. I've been twice and looking forward to going back. This restaurant is definitely the place to go when you want to take your time between courses and enjoy the food and people you are with. I like the 20% service charge(tip) added to bill. Keeps paying thoughtless as service is excellent. 5 stars on everything!“

“My husband took me for the Mother's Day brunch and oh my goodness, it was the best ever. My only regret is that I didn't have more room in my stomach for all the amazing food. The guy at the omelette station was super nice. The views are gorgeous, and after brunch we played on the beach with my daughter. I can't wait to come back!“

“Scotch plains is a great place to hang out and grab some American style food. Downstairs is a more sit down space for dinner/lunch. Upstairs is a fun bar with tables and high tops. Occasionally you can catch a live band. Games are always on the TVs. We went and caught an amazing live band and stayed well after dinner to have drinks! Get the potato chips to start, the dipping sauce is great. I had the burrata BLT, with balsamic and was not disappointed. Chicken Cesar salad was great with a giant crouton. Fun spot!“

“The best lobster roll and clam chowder I ever had in my life and I am very happy.“

“Our first time to this restaurant, we were very impressed. The staff was very accommodating, and our server was kind and attentive. The food was excellent and the wine delicious. Fantastic menu. The ambience was cozy, fun and very inviting. Loved being right next to the marina and water. Definitely will be heading back!“

“Food was delicious however, way too expensive imo.$2 per wing and no deal when you get a double order.$15 for 3 small arincini balls.Also, make sure to review the bill. They miss charged us and had to fix it when I brought it to their attention.“
