    Thai Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail
    Beth C.

    I wish I had taken a photo, but alas, I didn't. But I am telling you that you must go to Bailey's this summer for the shrimp roll. It is dangerously delicious and outranks every lobster roll in town. The truffle burger also ranks in my top three burgers in town. You must!

    Great service and farm to table menu. Our entrees were delicious - each ingredient thought out, intentional and cooked well. Kid friendly as well! They do have a kids menu.

    Bailey's remains a stellar dining experience in Ridgefield, especially in the summer with the additional outdoor seating: Incredible service, an eclectic menu, execution to perfection, and an intimate atmosphere.

    I thought the Rancheros was 4/5 but my wife said the chicken sandwich was excellent. The service was excellent and I really enjoyed the music playlist.

    What a gem! This place was absolutely great. The restaurant is very cozy, really good vibes from the minute you get in. They started us off with some warm cornbread, it was nice and warm and tasted so good! For our appetizer we had the burrata which was absolutely delicious. I had for my lunch the Philly Cheesesteak which must have been the best cheesesteak I have eaten outside of Philadelphia. The steak was so tasty and flavorful and plentiful. It was served with peppers and onions with a little jalapeño kick. I truly enjoyed it. My girlfriend had the apple/Brie panini and she absolutely loved it. We will definitely be back to try other items on their menu. The servers were excellent. They were quick and attentive, offering great suggestions.

    Excellent little spot in Ridgefield! Friendly and casual atmosphere with an exceptional selection of tasty dishes and wine! Knowledgeable and respectful staff. I have been looking for fried oysters in our area a while now and I was not disappointed with the oysters that Bailey's had to offer! Crispy and full flavor that was worth every bite! Sea-bass was seasoned and cooked to perfection, crispy skin and soft that melts in your mouth bass meat! Amazingly Cooked lamb with just the right amount of seasoning! Remember always ask for medium! The drizzle reduction was just the perfect touch! Highly Recommend! One of the best farm to table restaurants that I've tried with reasonable prices!

    I came to Bailey's for Ridgefield's 2024 Restaurant Week, and frankly it was a brilliant decision. Bailey's is next to the entrance of the public parking lot, and does have outdoor seating in the sidewalk with fire towers (at least they were there in February). The interior is deceptively big - there are two rooms with tables. The food was amazing - the brussel sprouts tostada I still think about, the sprouts were cooked so well and seasoning done perfectly. The complimentary cornbread only made me sad because I had to share. A little crumbly, but homey and welcoming! The waiter was very friendly, but couldn't really explain the surprise "kitchen fee" that came on the bill that apparently is not part of the tip. In most situations I would have lowered my score of the restaurant, but I enjoyed the meal that much. If it was on the menu, I missed it and that information should be mentioned at the beginning of the meal.

    Had a wonderful meal - can't go wrong with the menu. My only regret was not trying more appetizers! My wife and I split a bunch of items and they served it on separate plates so the presentation was

    Bailey's Backyard is everything and more! My husband and I came to Bailey's about a month ago for some drinks and we really loved the vibe, we decided to make a reservation yesterday for dinner and we are so glad we did. The service is outstanding and the food blew us away. We were greeted at the host stand upon arrival and sat immediately, the place was super busy and you could tell that the staff was working extra hard to keep everyone happy. The waitress came by to take our drink and food order. Here is what we had: To start we had two martinis made to perfection. For food went we had the Brussel sprouts Kung Pao which was so good I could have just kept eating it. We also shared the goat cheese croquettes and I can not even put into words how delicious the fried green tomatoes and pesto sauce that accompanied them were. For our main course I had the Caesar salad and my husband had the farm greens salad with a side of chicken, both dishes were fantastic! Last, but not least, for dessert we shared the vegan key lime pie which was mouth watering good. The only thing I wish is that they had more vegetarian options for main dishes. We will definitely be back and we look forward to trying something new when we return. Thanks for the amazing night out Bailey's Backyard!

    For starters they gave us a menu of drinks and we wanted 2 Stella's on tap he said sorry we have no…read moretap beer but only bottles. Ok well let us know BEFORE you hand us the beer and wine menu. UGH For Tapas YES Fried Calamari was absolutely amazing Fresh, not dry at all with a large bowl and 2 delicious dipping sauces. BUT For Paella Classic for 2 Never again. It was a huge disappointment after our tapas as a warm up. It was served in an iron skillet, nice presentation but much smaller than we thought it should be for 2. It had no moisture at all, the rice and chorizo sausage with chicken bits and shrimp. The shrimp was very disappointing just rubbery and dry. This place has a 4.7 star rating and a great looking Menu. Maybe it's a Ridgefield Connecticut thing to go there for an enjoyable atmosphere. For the food quality it was too expensive comparatively as view on their website. We picked it because of the Great Rating. The head manager/owner was great and the staff was very attentive. We had dessert and coffee the coffee was nice and strong, fantastic but dessert was a version of crème brûlée taste was good Caramelized sugar wasn't there. When the Restaurant manger asked how was everything I had to let him know, he appreciated it and took the coffee off of the bill. We still gave a 20% tip for the great service. Sad to say We won't ever go back

Maybe the best ceaser salad ever. Appreciate the small cuttings of the lettuce. Maine lunch beer will always get 5/5 from me. Ahi tuna tacos were divine wish I ate them last. The Tostito ahi tuna was great as was the ice cream and whipped cream in the desert. Amy our server was so lovely and attentive despite a slamming Friday night. Oh seated right away. 4/5 the smores brownie was good not great a bit dry. Wife says I'm being overly critical. Probably. Margarita was very good.

Kudos to them…read morefor having fresh and healthy meats and fishes to choose from but if they cannot be delivered properly, it certainly takes away from the dining out experience and makes one regret spending $25-40 per meal before having a drink. We ordered steak nachos, crispy chicken tacos, and steak fajitas- $3 extra for a cup of rice and beans. The nachos and tacos came out together. The nachos were cold with solidified cheese. We sent them back and asked for them to be remade but got burned under the broiler nachos. Also- can they be called nachos with only 6 chips? We sent them back again only to have them reappear with 6 new chips and new melted cheese on top of the original hardened cheese. While we waited for them, the fajitas arrived and so we all ate at different times during our dinner out. We asked for additional chips but never got any. We were charged $6 for the cup of rice and beans, even though the menu clearly stated $3. Overall, this was a very disappointing meal. Too bad.
