Customer Reviews
This was one of the best dinners in Brewster. Can't believe i didn't get a pic, but I highly recommend their lobster and shrimp pasta with saffron sauce. The meal was amazing and tasted great. If we were staying longer, I definitely would have gone back.
This was our first time dining here. It has a very nice homey, neighborhood atmosphere. The bar area was bustling and a good dining room crowd. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. The bussing staff was on top of it. Never had to ask for water refills and empty/dirty dishes were promptly whisked away. We shared a bowl of the lobster bisque which was rich with flavor but light on lobster. The braised short ribs were good, very tender however, the ginger soy sauce was a bit over-powering. It was served with a round of rice, no vegetables. The two pieces of veal Milanese were on the dry side. It was topped with a few roasted asparagus spears and a tasty arugula mix. The tre leche cake was delicious. We felt that for the price it was on the higher side based upon the quantity
Took 50 minutes for our food to come out. Only gave us a little bread after 20 minutes. Nice environment inside (outside is a deck in the parking lot), large menu on the slightly expensive side, food tasted good but lacked in portion size (see scallop photo, which is technically an entree like the others). Good margaritas. Also the “grilled vegetables” was just a single piece of tough, under-steamed broccoli.
We had an incredible meal back in May, so we could not wait to have dinner on this trip in September and they exceeded our expectations once again. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff (especially Freddy) were outstanding. We plan on another dinner here before our vacation ends in a few days. This restaurant is a “must” if you are dining in Brewster.
We recently found this place and we're pleased at the menu choices. The service was friendly and efficient. The servers were flexible about modifying our order and the salad was delicious. Overall a good experience and we will go back.
