    Call ahead of time if prefer to sit inside. Serve two time periods during lunch time. Calculate your arrival time accordingly.

    Wonderful outdoor seating.

    There are very few times when I have left a restaurant with plans of an immediate return. After eating, I had tried to make a dinner reservation for my birthday. Unfortunately, when I asked, I was informed that Monet's Table does not serve dinner. The hostess did tell me that they serve an amazing brunch. I will definitely be back to confirm this. My son and I were on vacation from school and work, so we were completing our week of day trips. When my son said that he wanted a BLT, I went to Yelp in search of a new place. Off the beaten path and in the most beautiful location, we found Monet's Table. Like any 10 year old, my son had requested that we eat outside. We were seated at a small garden table surrounded by flowers and bumblebees. There were about 5 tables of families in a small area, but it was still quite quiet and relaxing. The waitress as well as the others who had helped with delivery and cleanup were helpful and friendly. Orders were taken and food was delivered quickly. My son's BLT was served with a small dish of pasta salad. He was very happy with his sandwich but not a huge fan of the salad. It was a little fancier than what he's used to. I had ordered the shrimp skewers over a grain salad with watermelon, mint and feta. The salad complemented the skewers perfectly. Having saved room for dessert we splurged on a key lime crepe and lava cake. Both were delicious. On our way out one of the incredibly nice employees told us about the chickens on the property. She gave us some feed and let us feed the chickens. Pretty soon they will be producing eggs that will be used for the restaurant. I would highly recommend a visit in the warmer months if you enjoy outdoor dining. I hope to be back in a few weeks to experience the indoor dining.

    Turkey bacon sandwich

    The best venue for ladies who lunch! We sat in the beautiful garden under a shady umbrella. The food matched the scenery in perfection. We all enjoyed our meals .. from a southwest salad to a delicious turkey bacon sandwich on homemade bread. We came at 12:30 and they were down to last serving of a few dishes .Reservations are recommended.

    Came here again, still great food at high prices. It's very relaxed and comfortable, and service is relatively quick. Worth a try if you're in the area, good bites but nothing trek worthy

    Chocolate cake dessert from winter daily specials
    Allison K.

    Really loved this place! Ordered a cheddar melt with pear and bacon as well as the chicken vegetable soup. We were convinced for dessert where I got the chocolate cake special and my friend ordered the Russian panna cotta. Both were so delicious! Ambience is cute as it feels like you're in someone's home. Waitress was great, and very quick service. Definitely recommend if you need a unique, fresh ingredient-filled lunch in tolland county!

    Sweet potato, avocado, & black bean vegan burger on vegan Anadama bread, chipotle aioli on the side. Look at this beautiful presentation!

    It was such a delight to have lunch at Monet's Table in Tolland! Their menu is divine, with everything sounding scrumptious for omnivores, vegetarians, and vegans. They do offer LuAnn's gluten-free bread as a substitute, too. The restaurant is open 11:30am-2:30pm on Wednesdays through Fridays, and Saturdays from 9am-2pm (there's a brunch on Saturdays that I absolutely must try). I love that the location feels very "away from it all" and yet is just a couple minutes from several busy local routes. My friend and I arrived about noon--along with almost a dozen people, mostly retirees, but a couple young families arrived later. Not a worry about overcrowding as there were indoor and outdoor tables to fit everyone. We headed straight to the outdoor seating, and a very polite man took us to a lovely umbrella-covered table in the garden. What a beautiful setting! Gorgeous flowers and hosta, and a little water feature amidst the plants. This was the best outdoor eating experience I've had in a long while. Our server and host were so professional, polite, and welcoming. They were very knowledgeable about Monet's Table and the menus and offerings, specials, and substitutions. Though there were a lot of us descending on the place at once, we were well taken care of! The hardest thing was to decide what to eat, as everything sounded fabulous. My friend got Moroccan Kebabs (she chose tofu over the shrimp option) which came with watermelon, feta, and mint tabbouleh; one of the soup specials; and a slice of their Anadama bread. She also had a little pot of Harney & Sons tea (my fave brand ever). I chose the Vegan Black Bean & Sweet Potato Burger on vegan Andama bread with greens & tomatoes, and a side of chipotle aioli. I also had the ginger lemon unsweetened iced tea, which was very refreshing! My friend raved about her dish and the way the flavors worked well with the tabbouleh. A perfect savory/sweet/tangy combination that I am going to order next time. We both found the toasted Anadama bread to have a very lightly sweet molasses taste. It also paired beautifully with my black bean and sweet potato burger. Soooooo good. All the while, we enjoyed a leisurely conversation, never once feeling rushed along. People arrived, people left, and there seemed to always be a couple tables open at any given time. It was a cooler afternoon than anticipated day, so I'm sure a fair amount of diners chose to eat indoors. Anyway, we had a great time eating great food in great surroundings. We did consider dessert (they all sounded amazing & fresh) but saved that for another visit. Monet's Table is going to be in my top 5 go-to spots through summer! Maybe I'll see you there? Definitely give it a go!

    I've driven by this cute place several times. Today, I was invited by my neighbor and friend. We sat outside in a cute gazebo, flowers and plants all around. It's such a beautiful setup. We went inside to take a peek as well. Very inviting and comfortable environment. The menu is short and sweet. Those make the best restaurants, honestly. I had one of the soup specials that was a curried cauliflower soup. It was different and very good, along with a grilled cheese that was perfectly cooked. The bread was crispy yet soft as you bit into it, the cheese gooey and melted nicely, and the tomato and bacon were the perfect compliment. It was also served with a type of cold noodle/macaroni salad that tasted refreshing. My friend ordered the Quiche, a large piece, and she enjoyed it.

    Green eggs and ham

    Service was great and ambiance! Food was alright for the price though they sure do make it look pretty.

    I've been here once before and enjoyed it. This visit was a bit off. We were seated promptly and given water. The next time , meeting our waitress, came quite a bit after. This place is known for its delicious eggs Benedict's. I could not wait to have their traditional! The waitress mentioned that unfortunately anything with hollandaise. That was a bit of a bummer. We ordered drinks and food right away. I had to redirect and ordered an omelet with cheddar, mushrooms and onions It was about 25 min later that we received our drink. Our waitress was also our bartender at a completely packed place. About 45 min later we got our food. Mine was ok. The Bloody Mary was pretty tasty. I know the folks had to leave to get a plane. It showed and she apologized. I'm empathetic to the situation but I think my hopes of the hollandaise I had been dreaming off really made this a 3 star for me.

    Stopped in for a quick lunch with my husband. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was cute. We split both meals and we really enjoyed the crab artichoke melt.

    Cute "homey" feel at Monet's table. Food looked/tasted nice and fresh. Chickens outside which I'm assuming they get eggs from! Portion sizes were pretty spot on. $12 for a breakfast wrap and $7 for home fries with bacon and cheese. Service was a tad slow. For parties of 6 or more a 20% gratuity is included in your check and no check splitting. Would recommend going here

    Nice outside ambience!

    We were looking for a brunch or lunch venue on our drive to Litchfield, CT, and found a 4.5-star Yelp reviewed restaurant called Monet's Table. Monet's Table has limited restaurant hours, as they also have a busy catering business. The restaurant is situated in a 1750 Farmhouse at 167 Tolland Stage Road in Tolland and has all the rustic charm one would hope to find at this type of establishment. It was moderately busy as we arrived close to Noon on a warm Saturday. We were immediately seated and our waitress arrived promptly to explain review the menu. Candidly, it was difficult to choose as they provided so many interesting choices. We finally opted for the Eggs Benedict Thermador and the Eggs Benedict Mignon. The menu says that these dishes are server over toast. However, this is a radical understatement as they provide a thick piece of homemade toast that is light and delicious. My filet mignon was served perfectly medium (pink inside) and was tender and tasty. The Bearnaise sauce was awesome! The thermador was equally delicious with small pieces of lobster, asparagus and a tasty Bechamel sauce. Though these dishes were sufficiently large, I was left wanting more! A quick visit to their website will demonstrate that Monet's Table focuses much more on food presentation than on digital presentation, and I didn't see a restaurant menu on the site (Dear Monet's Table, your copyright says 2007-2017, but your website looks like it was last updated in 2007!). However, there are some photos of the menu on Yelp. I wish we lived closer to this restaurant, as I'd love to be a regular here. I strongly recommend Monet's Table for brunch and lunch lovers. And note that they are not open for dinner.

They are located in what appears to be a little house. There's parking in the front for around four vehicles, on my way out I realized they have a substantial parking lot in the rear. The inside is super cute with hardwood floors, wooden furniture and comfy seating. It's not super spacious, but comfortable for a date or a solo adventure. At Radial they roast their own coffee beans. They had some pastries, but not many, probably because it was after 2:00 o'clock. For my coffee I got the Honey Maple Latte. The barista said I could take a seat, she would bring it to me. Well, it's a good thing she brought it over, because I would have spilled it. The presentation was lovely. It came in a navy ceramic cup with a saucer, with a design on top. This was one of the smoothest and creamiest coffees I've had in a while. From the texture of the latte its self, to the flavor, it is very smooth, in a way lux. The flavor was there but in a very organic way, nothing is too sugary. This was a very pleasant experience at Radial.

    Great, family run business who gives back to their community. Josh the owner is just a great human…read more We love to support local whenever we can. Items can be pricey, but you get what you pay for. Some of my favorites: oatmeal bread, blueberry pancake cupcakes, strawberry rolls, early riser rolls - to name a few. We also love their apple crumble pie, their pepperoni picnic bread, and their sugar cookie pie around the holidays! For me the coffee is hit or miss - sometimes it's amazing other times I don't love it ... maybe have to do with the syrups I choose to be honest. They currently have a bakery location in Ellington and an additional drive thru location down the road in Ellington, a location in Stafford, and will be opening in Hartford in 2026. You can also find them at the outdoor Ellington farmers markets on Saturdays. Highly recommend checking them out. Their staff are all beyond pleasant as well. Their locations or warm and inviting and they pay attention to detail.

    Still pricy, still tasty…read more Gone a few more times over the year or so. It's a good bakery, stuff is always fresh and the flavors in each of their cupcakes, muffins, breads, and other misc bakery items is present and forward. They know that they are good, and charge accordingly. Given that there's no direct competition in a 10 mile radius (and I would argue even past that 10 mile radius the pickings are slim) the price is justifiable for the quality you get. As someone who treks a lot around the state, I find that there are many bakeries that do similar if not better items for comparable if not lower prices. But to ask someone to drive 30-60 minutes just to get something a couple bucks cheaper that's tastes about the same? It's a hard sale. I will say that Luanne's is the best in that area of the state, not including the small boutique places that are well off the beaten path. I still come here for the view and ambiance, but I don't order much of their food.
