    Onion soup
    John W.

    Don't get to many French restaurants so I wasn't sure what to expect, especially in 'rural' Connecticut. I'm very glad I went. My aunts were raving about a desert pastry. We arrived and sat outside on the terrace. The road nearby was not too loud and the terrace was great shade on a warm day. We ordered gazpacho, ratatouille, onion soup, and clams linguini. Importantly, I almost NEVER order clams at restaurants. My family and I dig and eat at least a thousand clams a year in Rhode Island and I always assume and expect that no place can prepare them as well or as freshly. When the dish arrived I saw three cherrystones on top and figured this would be a small plate for a big price. I was completely wrong. The dish was better than anything I've made or had out. Full of tender chopped clams, the flavor and sauce were superb and the bread was excellent. We finished the meal with the pastry desert (cream puff with ice cream and chocolate sauce) and a merengue floating on a vanilla sauce. Both were wonderful. The service was great- Emelina (?) was very attentive and gave us spot on advice (and some basic French lessons) with a smile. The owner, Rober, also stopped by to make sure our experience was good. I would recommend strongly to anyone in the area who appreciates fine dining without too much fuss or to anyone wondering what French food is really like.

    Here is the dried out crumbly egg white omelette that I took out to go and here is how it plated on my plate fell right apart.

    I purchased a to go order and plated it on my plate at home, it was the most awful egg white omelette I have ever had. Dried out could not taste Swiss cheese or even see it in this omelette. Best part was the cappuccino. Will not be coming back for 30.00 for this!

    Piping hot onion soup -- lobster hash for the other diner. Where is the baguette?
    Michelle A.

    Holiday panic in Sharon means that the warm baguette arrives 20 minutes after the onion soup was served and required multiple requests. Fortunately, the soup was piping hot and the neighboring tables very entertaining -- shades of John Updike. Noise level rose as the bloody Marys were served around the room!

    Pomme frites

    The 4 stars are for the food ordered. The New England clam chowder was one of the best I've had in the north east area outside of New England. The chowder are seasonal. They didn't just have soup but heaped in lots of solid clam, potatoes and such. The butter sugar crepe was the right amount of thin batter and flavor while the pomme frites was the perfect thick steak cut and crisp. The croque monsuier was way better than Chez Alice with a generous amount of tasty crispy yet melting cheese on top of the bread as a tiny amount of salad like. Oh, the fresh squeezed orange juice was sweet and so fresh though surprisingly small. There are 2 things that took this away from the 5 star with one being the service being a little bit lacking when you first enter and waiting to be seated then wondering if the waitress forgot about you but it's all because she's the only one serving the entire rows of outdoor tables so be prepared to wait a bit. Secondly, the price is towards the higher end of "upper pricing" for a casual dining experience but nevertheless good food. This was for the middle of the week lunch time dine in so I can only imagine the weekend or evening hours. There is only 1 toilet stall per male and female and ADA accessible. Parking in the shared lot.

    Happened upon this gem while day tripping in the Catskills. They make everything in house. I…read moreenjoyed an amazing tuna melt on their homemade bread along with homemade vanilla soda. There was a beautiful view out my window of a creek with rapids. Service was just as awesome.

    My family spent several days at a rental home a mile or so from Gracie's and, naturally, had to…read moregive the local diner a try. Gracie's is an elevated diner experience...all the breakfast and brunch things you could want, but up a couple levels from a classic greasy spoon diner. Not dissing the greasy spoon diner experience...love that...but this is based in that historical experience, with an overall nicer experience in terms of food and atmosphere. Also, before we get into the specifics, here are 2 words which would bring me in from just about anywhere: Donut menu. Yes, they make their own donuts here, and that's enough reason to stop in, take out, or worship at the front door. We got our donuts to go after the meal...The coffee was GREAT. Too often, coffee, which should be the opening star of a diner experience, can be flavorless, browned water. Here it was good. Bold as I needed it to be, and the perfect foundation for the rest of the meal. My next go-to if they have it brunch experience is biscuits. They have them...you can get a biscuit on its own or, heck, go for a mini biscuit basket! I live for a biscuit-forward establishment. The Full Breakfast (submitting biscuit or potatoes for the meat) would have been my choice, but I decided to roll my own and ended up with a biscuit, fruit cup, and side of Hash Browns. The biscuit was good, large, and perfect with butter and honey. They make the hash browns to order - large hash brown patties - and with 2 different orders of them at the table, one was overcooked, too brown, and not impressive...but the other was perfect and delicious...bordering on potato pancake territory in presentation and flavor. Our server was fantastic...we had a large party encompassing 3 different tables in the middle of a Sunday morning (On Easter no less), which is, of course, the busiest time of the week. She was friendly, enthusiastic, and never made us feel rushed. If I found myself in the Hudson Valley again, Gracie's would be a definite destination for me.

    BEST. CAKE. EVER. If you haven't ordered a cake from Peg, please go do so immediately. (For more on…read morethe cake you can skip down to the paragraph that starts with "There are NO WORDS...") I also had the best service. I live in San Francisco and needed to find a place to bake a birthday cake for my mother-in-law's 90th birthday party. 24 people were gathering at Interlaken Inn to celebrate. I reached out to about 3 places and Peg got back to me immediately--all via email. Through email I told her we wanted a chocolate cake with fresh fruit and whip cream in the middle. She said she needed to make two 9" rounds to feed the 24 of us. I picked up the cake on Saturday afternoon and asked for two sandwiches to go (turkey)) and they were both delicious, FYI! Saturday evening we celebrated at the Millerton Inn Restaurant. The kitchen put a candle on the cake (we had forgotten!) and after we sang Happy Birthday they cut the cakes and handed out the slices. There are NO WORDS to describe how much every single person in our group raved over this cake! It was super moist. The fresh fruit brought a lovely light acidity to the chocolate, and the whip cream was light and not too sweet. The cake wasn't too sweet either. My stepdaughter's husband actually never eats cake because he thinks it is too sweet and honestly, we couldn't stop him from seconds (and thirds) and each time he was in awe of how much he loved it! It was incredibly rewarding for me to see everyone so happy with the cake! Peg--THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You're a baking genius. I'm only sad I can't get your cakes in San Francisco. And if any of this sounds like hyperbole, I assure you it is not. If anything, I haven't done a proper job describing the love your cake engendered.

    We really wanted to like this place, and maybe it was an off day, though the scones were dry and…read moreover sweetened, the egg sandwich was rubbery and the coffee was incredibly bitter. The only saving grace was the kind young lady who apologized, yet didn't seem surprised by our feedback. She offered to have the owner reach out, though that never happened. Overall disappointing.
