We got a last-minute dinner and they slipped us in between reservations. It was fantastic the food to service the setting. Marcia loves the crab bisque, we had a salted mushroom goat cheese appetizer that was wonderful. And we split a spring pasta. Fantastic tasting food. And the service was friendly and extremely helpful. Highly recommend Farmers table. read more

Went here for a quick dinner with a friend and overall it was a nice time. It was a nice location, with outside seating which is where we sat. The service was solid as well, prompt and the servers were all kind. I got the hangar steak which was made well. For the price point, it was a smaller portion size than I expected and I did still feel a little hungry after the meal. Would be willing to try other menu items at this location in the future! read more

Fantastic spot. We had the Hanger Steak, Chicken Lo Mein, Pork Chop, and the Shrimp Parpardelle. I'm not a mashed potato guy but the mash potatoes are fantastic! We started with the Duck Confit Quesadilla which was excellent! Highly recommend a stop if you are in the area. read more

Theyre losing market share in nc to other restaurants that are updated and more posh. This place needs a little face lift on the inside and work on aesthetic. food is still great. read more

Happily surprised, he stumbling on this restaurant. Inside which has an exposed kitchen, small staff, but seems to really care about quality and service. When would the salmon dish as well as pork chop for a chilly evening. A price is incredible. For the quality of food. It's especially unique in new Canaan where things can be overpriced. I look forward to giving it a few more tries in the next few weeks. read more

Had dinner with a large group and they did a great job hosting us. Service was great and food was hot and fresh. Would like to go back and try some different menu options but the group was overwhelmingly happy with the experience. read more

A relaxing casual place to have a healthy meal. The food is freshly prepared and delicious. My husband and I like to share to not over eat. The arugula salad with walnuts and fried rice bowl with vegetables and chicken was plenty for both of us. Service was great too! read more

Quality eatery on a restaurant row street in New Canaan. Cute ambiance with a rustic theme and a cool entry way with straw and farm theme. The service was excellent and attentive. The vodka, lemonade cocktail was tasty but quite weak. An extra splash of vodka wouldn't hurt. We started with the crab bisque which was delicious. The Cobb salad was a solid A- while the steak tacos were filling, perhaps slightly too heavy. The Key Lime Pie was superb. Our dining mate had the mushroom pasta on special which looked divine. I'd recommend adding it to the regular menu. read more

Phenomenal. Real food. Put their foot in the jerk kitchen. Look up the phrase. Crab Bisque is consistently delicious. Hanger Steak is well worth it. We always have a great time here! Staff is the best. Well done, chef. read more

Farmer's Table - a man eating a meal - New American Near Me - New Canaan, Connecticut

One of the signs of a great restaurant is delivering delicious food consistently. Farmer's Table does that in spades and I'm so glad they do because I will always order their amazing Shrimp Mojo every time I dine here. It's dazzling-the flavor...yes, my mouth is watering just thinking about it! I've never had beans cooked so perfectly...every single time (never stringy, always tender), the wild rice...the sauce...OMG it's all so delicious. That quiet, unassuming, kind, aproned man is making magic in that kitchen every night, and lucky for us that he is. He's a food artist, and clearly loves what he does. This husband/wife team is truly an "A" team. Thank you for doing what you do so passionately well for all of us. p.s. best bread in town to boot. read more

Menu is a tad misleading given the name of the restaurant (for instance; tacos, lo mein, and shrimp). Quaint local feel with plating which is overly simple and direct. Service is nothing rememberable. One of those places that if you're hungry and nearby; it will satisfy. Comfort food at higher end prices. Nothing overly exciting. Not a destination for me but also wouldn't avoid if walking by. read more

Recently we had the pleasure of eating at the Farmer's Table, there are daily special's along with a set menu. We ordered the Stir Fry Lomein with shrimp, the vegetables were fresh and it was served a wonderful cream sauce, there was not a bite left. The shrimp tacos were also a hit, they were served with large fresh shrimp . This was accompanied by a glass of wine. The meal was topped off with a piece of key lime pie. Always save room for dessert. The staff was professional and friendly and answered any questions we had about the menu. If you want a nice meal out this is your place. We were visiting with family, this restaurant is on the list of places we want to come back to. read more

First visit was pleasant experience. Bread for the table, always a good tip for what to expect, was excellent. Wine list adequate. Pan seared duck was perfectly prepared and well presented. read more

The restaurant is located on a lovely street in New Canaan and offered great seating for a lazy summer evening. We walked into the restaurant and immediately smelled the aroma of fresh bake bread. That bread was put to good use when we ordered the special camembert appetizer. The combination of camembert, honey, balsamic vinegar was simply divine! Their home-grown wild arugula salad also hit the spot since we had just visited the Grace Farms earlier in the day. For my main course, I ordered the special jerk chicken. The chicken was a tad on the dry side, but the seasoning for the accompanying mash potato was pretty good. Definitely will return to try other things on the menu if we're in the area again! read more

Great food and service. The jerk chicken was cooked to perfection. Beat salad was fresh and excellent.

Nice, friendly setting. Enjoyed my meal and evening. Why is there a minimum characters for this...

The beef stew is excellent and love their sourdough. Friendly service. The portion is generous. The beef is tender and will melt in your mouth. read more

One of the best meals I've had in a really long time! Food was fresh, wonderfully prepared and presented. Service was great.! But the noise factor is just awful. seriously. I couldn't wait to get outside to get peace and quiet after sitting there for an hour. I don't understand why restaurant owners think that people want to spend good money to sit in an atmosphere That is so loud. Kudos to the chef as it was a wonderful meal however, the hostess needs to crack a smile once in a while, and maybe say thank you for coming when she sees you leave . It's like she was doing you a big favor to come to her establishment and listen to loud noise! read more

Nice ambiance, good food and great service. A really nice local restaurant with a good vibe.

Impressive locally sourced menu and great service! I would recommend to everyone. Couples or families.

The NY Strip steak is Devine. Order medium rare with their home made steak sauce. Better than most steak houses.

Fantastic breakfast. Really can't go wrong with whatever you order. Coffee is great, bring home a bag! Ambience feels like an old fashioned country home. Always come here when I'm in NY read more

Simply perfect, the absolute real deal. In a world disguised with fake smiles recent trends and poor quality meals dressed up, Farmers Table is an uncut perfect gem radiating in its own true light far from others. An over abundance of realness resonated, leaving us wanting more, not just at the restaurant but in all of life, unmasked pure quality. Farmers Table doesn't need to follow the trend of listing the local farms they source from, you just know from the first look and then validated by the first bite that this food came straight from the farm, a level of unmodified freshness usually not found in this county. Meals were prepared with just the right touch of culinary spice making them absolutely delectable. There's no crutches of overused creams salts or sugars, the chef has masterfully crafted a perfect balance in every dish. The environment and waitstaff match the food. Service was attentive but not in your face with fake smiles. The decorations and tables were authentically country rustic delivering a true charm on a completely different level from your typical restoration hardware facades. In the background played classic Fairfield County anthems of old school roots reggae, soft enough that most wouldn't notice the voices of Desmond Dekker, John Holt, and Toots unless they were true Fairfield County OG's, again staying genuine to their environment. My only regret is not having come sooner, The Farmer's Table will be a new regular and I can't wait to go back! read more

I LOVE this restaurant--food is fantastic! really nice ambience and the best home baked bread (that you can buy). one of my favorite restaurants in the area. read more

Just terrific- loved the fresh ingredients in all the food. The staff is nice and the place has a great vibe. I know that this isn't a long, descriptive review, but to me how the place made me feel from my experience is of value to me. I'm coming back! read more

Lamb chops were absolutely delicious. Service was very attentive. Ambiance was cozy with low buzz but not loud at all.

We were turned away with the excuse that they were at capacity. Plenty of empty tables. We had an infant in a stroller at the time. Would have left anyways due to the heavy odor of burnt food inside the restaurant. Never tried the food nor would return to try. read more

I love to dine out and the food is phenomenal! I have been back frequently and it never disappoints. Everything is fresh, tasty and the service is impeccable. It is evident that the owners take pride in their cuisine and in making their patrons feel at home. Anything I have tried (and I have been back several times) was outstanding! I don't have a sweet tooth, but I must say that I seem to order one of their fresh house desserts every time I'm there. I would highly recommend! read more

Went here for dinner and was not expecting such a nice mix of foods. My shrimp with mijo was perfect and the vegetables were perfectly cooked- so tasty. Also got an excellent martini. read more

Good farm to Table food at reasonable prices. Good variety. Wish they were open for lunch and every night during the week. read more

Food was very tasty and fresh because some of it was picked from the gardens that day. Chef had interesting compositions which we love to try. We will be back. read more

When the weather is perfect, outside seating is a must. They don't take reservation for outside seating though, it's first comes first served. We got lucky and landed a table for 6PM dinner on a Friday. The place is quaint, situated next to a small street..perfect for people and cars watching. Food selections on the menu isn't large, but everything sounds delicious. I started with a cup of roasted corn soup and ended up with their special; scallops with mojo sauce served with wild rice pilaf and a side of perfectly cooked string beans and carrots. My companion ordered steak tacos. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the soup and my entree. Soup was warm, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. Scallops were melt in your mouth good. Wild rice pilaf, surprisingly was soft and very tasty with the mojo sauce. Location is great and it is farm fresh food, what's not to love? Steak tacos look a little sad though. The plate had 2 good size tacos and no other sides or garnish. But my companion enjoyed them. I will be returning here again. Although food took a bit too long for our table. Other people seemed to be getting their food within a reasonable amount of time. Otherwise everything was delightful. read more

Delicious! Delicious! Inventive menu, fresh and seasonal offerings. Service and atmosphere is very relaxed and friendly. We keep going back and this place just keeps getting better and better. DELICIOUS is still the best word I can think of to describe. I recently had a pasta with seasonal mushroom sauce that was awesome. Try the cheese plate as a shared appetizer or desert, if you like cheese you won't be disappointed. read more

Best chop I have had in 3 yesrs... very good. Food great, so is service. It's European..... not new canaan. That may damper reviews, but this is a good spot. Great food. Attentive to customers. Enjoy! read more

Service was great! Fast, friendly, and on top of it all! Ingredients were very fresh, the crap soup delish! Kinda a mix between a she crab and lobster bisque. Halibut was a little dry and bland, but the sauce was very tasty! read more

Such a cute spot on Forest Street in New Canaan! The hearty, stick-to-your-ribs fare is simple, fresh, well-prepared and thoughtfully sourced. I'm still dreaming about the mushrooms and fog appetizer -- a must-order if you love mushrooms, cheese and deliciousness. Ambiance is lovely, and service was prompt and friendly. We'll definitely be back! read more

Been dining and and taking out for a few years. Their take out is really good as extra care is made to a make the presentation look as nice as it does for dining in. This is a family owned restaurant and you will most likely be greeted by the owner. read more

Such a wonderful dining experience. The food was fresh the workers were very friendly. The bread was spectacular. I highly suggest the cabernet sauvignon. So pleased. read more

Absolutely love this restaurant. The beet salad is amazing. Love the lamb. The steak is cooked to perfection. Chicken is also awesome. Have never had anything bad here read more

If the food was amazing, then I could understand the poor service. Think the Soup Nazi episode of Seinfeld. This is like that, but with bad food. The waitress was very dismissive of our table. The vegetables had no seasoning, neither did my friend's shrimp dish. The table behind me got 3 of 4 entrees and they just left the woman waiting for her entree almost the entire meal and were not even apologetic! The thing they were the quickest with was the check. I was really excited to go here, but definitely won't be back. There are other overpriced restaurants in New Canaan that know how to use salt and pepper and treat customers. read more
