    Full Moon Farm Wagyu Burger
    Shane M.

    Pro Tip: Sit at the bar and get the Wagyu Burger with hand cut herb fries and a glass of Caymus Cabernet. Perfect dinner spot while you're hanging out on Church St. Service and food are on par with the best steakhouses in Vermont. Highly recommend!

    Filet with cream spinach

    From the first contact while making the reservation to the waitress and food and drinks were fabulous!

    First time here. It did not disappoint. Food was delicious, Our server Matt was great. Place is situated on church street. You can park nearby. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Has a great vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely recommend. Prices were reasonable

    Filet

    We choose EB Strong's for a client dinner while visiting Burlington for meetings. We had a group of 13, and were seated with a reservation in the private room, and everything was perfect. We had several servers checking in on us and we didn't need a thing, ever! Across the group we tried lots of dishes including the filet, surf and turf, crab cake, calamari, shrimp cocktail, salads, and chocolate martinis for dessert. Everyone enjoyed their food, and we had a great time.

    Vermont Cheese Board

    This is a great place! We came here for an anniversary dinner and they did not disappoint. The cheese was good. The steak was amazing. The potatoes were creamy and flavorful. And we topped everything off with their creme brûlée and mudslide pie - both of which were very tasty. Our server made the evening special through her kindness and wonderful attention while providing service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was pleasant and reminded me of an old Kansas City style steakhouse - this is absolutely a compliment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend!

    Maple Old Fashioned
    Mark B.

    The food was great. Tops, almost NYC steakhouse, yet the charm of Burlington Vermont instead. Cooked correctly, to a perfect medium rare, which is at the limits to how much a steak should be cooked. Sides are often family style, order a couple things to share with everyone. The cocktail menu was good, and the maple Old Fashioned is one of the better of the genre I've had, of the various places that do that these days. The maple crème brûlée was arguably the biggest disappointment of an otherwise solid spread, with very little maple flavor coming through. Tasted mostly like a standard vanilla custard. Maple can be tricky to cook or bake with, but it seemed absent in this case. Oh, the bread and butter served to start was amazing though. The service was good. Burlington in this newly post pandemic area is still struggling to get staff, but the wait staff were courteous and prompt. Actually, I felt like our server was the perfect amount of interested. Not overdone, but attentive as needed. The ambiance is what I'd call "modern steakhouse". Linen tablecloths, but not overdone red velour coverings like of yesteryear, where you'd expect to see business dealings. This was more clean and modern, but also not the overly loud industrial loft motif that some places have. Can't afford to eat here all the time, but based on this experience will definitely plan to return for other special occasions at least.

    Very nice steakhouse. Service was amazing. Loved my seared scallops and risotto. My drink was delicious. I believe it was called sunshine. Highly recommend. Our server was sweet, helpful, attentive and just excellent at her job!!

    Shrimp cocktail was decent
    Michigan H.

    This meal was not good. The escargot were rubbery and lukewarm. They were served in a bed of onions and just didn't taste great. The shrimp cocktail was fine but it would be difficult to screw up shrimp cocktail. The preparation for the rack of lamb was just weird. The lamb itself was very bland (didn't taste the mustard panko crust) and the polenta and greens were just a sour, strange combo. The chimichurri did not belong. The best things we ate were the shrimp cocktail and the complimentary bread. Service was okay. Place was loud. We will not return.

    LOOK at the size of Karls steak, perfectly cooked.
    Maggie S.

    The service was super friendly, and she completely spoiled my husband. He had ordered a Manhattan with a 'big cube' but was totally fine with the ice, but she INSISTED on swapping it out. We also appreciated how knowledgeable she was not only about the menu, but also to 'talk steak' and Kansas City with my husband. The wine recommendation was spot. on. and I appreciated the back story to it!! The food, gosh, where to begin? The calamari was light and not greasy at all, the tomato tapenade was the perfect dip for it, so yummy. My 'oscar filet' absolutely stole the show....not only did the chef deftly cook it to a medium without overdoing it, the MOUND of crab and lobster on top was a perfect compliment. The freshly mashed potatoes were perfectly nuanced with garlic and the hollandaise perfectly complimented the broccolini without overwhelming it. My husband ordered the creamed spinach, so good. the spinach was wilted but not slimy..it supported the perfect touch of cream sauce well. We barely had room for dessert, but that did not stop us from splitting the mud pie. the mix of caramel and fudge was a delight and the ice cream 'filled in all the cracks' nicely! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you for providing three hours of escape and celebration![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

We ordered the rolls, tuna crudo, oysters, tagliatelle (2 orders) and a fish dish. Only the one fish dish was good. Everything else was fresh but not at all to our taste. Because the food was fresh, we rated it a 3 to be fair. Obviously a lot of people like it, so maybe check some of my other local reviews to see if our taste aligns, but I would not go here again. Not to mention that it was very expensive. For the above with a couple drinks was $315 including tip. And the portions are fairly small, so come hungry, leave broke and still hungry.

This was mainly due to the great service and delicious meals ordered by each of us in our family of three. Our table was never left waiting and the food was served hot. Our meal choices were varied, including apps such as steak tartar and cheddar ale soup for one and the meatloaf plate and the turkey burger for the others. Everything was made with original flavor additions such as homemade sauces, fresh breads, and unique use of herbs and spices. Lastly, I was told to mention that the hand cut fries were exceptional. Since we visit Burlington often, we look forward to returning to the Farmhouse to try other dishes on their menu or just ordering the same meals since they were so good. We all agreed that this restaurant has definately moved to the top of the list for our next trip to Vt.

The last time my bf and I went we ordered a special which was Dan Dan noodles with pork, the cheeseburger, and burrata with bruschetta to start. All of the food was full of flavor and fair portion size. Restaurant poco does not take reservations in advance. It's easier to get a seat in spring summer or fall when they open up their outdoor seating and so can host more guests. You have to go to put your name on the wait list regardless of the season and even in summertime with more seating it can be a 20-40min wait. They play good funky music which can sometimes be overwhelmingly loud inside (I.e. a jock jam will be playing at club volume level), that's one of my few complaints. You can be at a two person table and only a few feet away from your dinner date but not always hear them. This happens mostly just during the winter. Outdoor seating is nice with outdoor lights and easy to see and hear whomever you're dining with. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone as they always have great tasting food and good drinks. A little on the pricier side, but worth it.
