The hostess--who we believe was the owner--never greeted us with a smile. The busboy also seemed unhappy to be there, and our waiter came across as angry and annoyed that we were dining there. The only person who smiled or seemed welcoming was the waiter's assistant. One friendly face out of four. It's a shame because the food was excellent. Unfortunately, great food alone isn't enough to overcome such an unwelcoming atmosphere. Based on the service, we wouldn't return.

As an Elite Yelper, I really enjoyed our first visit to Kingsley Tavern…read more From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming. The side entrance leads to a cozy outdoor lounge with couches and string lights that immediately set the tone. We were greeted warmly, seated quickly, and our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The food was excellent. The stuffed squash blossoms were absolutely delicious, I could have ordered another plate! I also had the meatloaf with veggies and mashed potatoes , which was flavorful and perfectly cooked. My husband ordered the Kingsley Burger and loved it. The only miss for me was the watermelon drink. It looked refreshing, but it tasted more like sparkling seltzer water than the fruity drink I was expecting. My only criticism is something I wish all restaurants would change: calculating suggested tip percentages after tax instead of before tax. It can make it seem like you're tipping less than you actually are. Overall, the food, service, and ambiance were wonderful, and we'd definitely come back. Worth the drive to Kent!

My first visit to Kingsley came this week during a two-day off-site business meeting in town. A…read morefriend who was a former employee had been urging me for years to try it, however, I'm typically only in Kent for lunch, and too anxious to get home when the tavern opens at 4pm. I am thrilled to have finally had the opportunity! The feel of the place is precisely what you would imagine in Kent. Traditional old-style dark wood, a sense of community, perfect decor to harken back to the days of stage coaches and taverns being the center of a town's social scene. Service was excellent. We never wanted for anything - but yet were not bombarded or crowded in the quaint dining room setting. The best and most important part of our meal was - well - the food. The menu is suitable for literally any dietary need without compromising their spin on elevated tavern/comfort food. Ample appetizers, interesting salads, tacos, meat/non-meat and even vegan options abound - all with terrific portion size and execution. Our entire group was pleased (and some are persnickety). Very much looking forward to returning and grateful they are in our great town.

We sat at the patio area but then it started to rain so we went inside. I had the mussels as an appetizer and it was huge and really delicious. The mussels would've been sufficient for my meal. I didn't realize how large it was going to be when I ordered it, so I ordered a chicken bacon and ranch sandwich meal as well. I definitely didn't need to order that. I thought the sandwich was just ok though, kind of bland. Overall, it's a decent spot to get a bite and drinks!

This is our third time eating at this excellent restaurant. The food never disappoints…read more We started with an appetizer- we chose the Shepard's pie croquette. It was fried, crispy on outside and moist and delicious on the inside. As far as drinks we got the loong island iced tea( NY Accent) and an espresso martini. I loved mine b/c you could taste the cawfee. The main course was difficult, I wanted a comforting meal but the burgers looked sooo good.

Go for the food, NOT the service!! Especially if you happen to get HARRY!…read more We waited forever for this guy to take our order, then the French onion soup had a fly in it. REALLY!! Never in my life. This guy was so overwhelmed that I waited 1/2 hr for a refill on water. He was awful. The 3 of the 4 of us order coffee and dessert. 2 desserts came, never got mine. I just figured....screw it, didn't need it. The kicker?........after waiting at least 1/2 hr for them to bring us to-go containers we asked 2 different waiters for, we get them. Now this freaked me out....thought the guy was kidding......he brings the check and precedes to tell us another table paid our bill......but no!!....not in a good way where we walked away with a free dinner, the waiter had inadvertently given another table OUR bill and they paid it, so he gave us THEIR bill which he claims was about $35 cheaper! So, that was our evening. Food wasn't bad, aside from the lone fly in my soup. But we won't be going back.

We have celebrated special occasions at Community Table for many years and have always enjoyed our…read moreexperiences there, which makes this review disappointing to write. Our party of four spent over $800 celebrating my mother's birthday. A few hours after the meal, my brother became seriously ill, and because I had also sampled his chicken dish and later experienced nausea myself, we were concerned the illness may have been related to the meal. When we contacted the restaurant to share our concerns, the conversations with management were disappointing. Joanne spoke separately with several members of our family and asked whether my brother had gone to the hospital, undergone testing, or had proof of illness. When I asked whether the restaurant maintained food safety documentation, I felt the question was viewed as accusatory rather than as part of a reasonable concern following our visit. Overall, the interaction lacked the empathy and reassurance we had hoped for. No refund, credit, or acknowledgment was offered. As longtime customers who have celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, and milestones here over the years, the response was surprising. Beyond the health concern, the overall dining experience felt noticeably less positive than in past visits. The bread exterior was very hard, and we noticed other nearby tables eating only the soft interior. The vegetables served with the scallops were tough, the pasta was dry, and most of the dishes (except for the pea soup) lacked flavor. The deserts were lackluster, though the goat cheese cheesecake was delicious. The cheese board appetizer was presented without explanation of the cheeses or accompaniments. Crumbs were not cleared between courses. While our server was friendly, we were repeatedly asked whether we had finished dessert, which made the evening feel somewhat rushed during a birthday celebration. The server also spent time discussing personal matters during service, which distracted from the dining experience. We had to find someone to get our coats otherwise we would've walked out without them. The ambiance at Community Table remains beautiful, which makes the experience especially unfortunate after so many positive visits over the years. Unfortunately, after this experience, our family will likely celebrate future special occasions at other restaurants in Litchfield County that we feel provide a stronger overall dining experience.

This is a mixed review, and I apologize for its length. The Mill doesn't take reservations for…read moreparties of four or fewer. Since we were driving from Cambridge to Egremont -- about three hours -- to celebrate a special occasion with friends who live nearby, we called to ask whether they could make an exception. The manager gladly did. A few hours before the reservation, however, the OWNER called and brusquely informed us that they do not take reservations for parties of four and that "maybe they could accommodate us," before launching into an unnecessary lecture about their 5+ policy -- essentially cancelling our reservation. Why do that to your customers? Unfortunately, it didn't stop there. When we arrived, he was again rude and dismissive, seating us at a tiny table in the corner of the bar that was clearly too small for dinner. Thankfully, the manager stepped in, rescued the evening, and moved us to the main dining room, where we ended up having a wonderful night with our friends. She also checked in throughout the evening to make sure our experience improved, and her professionalism genuinely turned things around. As for the food: we ordered the Smoked Fish Pate appetizer, the Grilled Salmon, and the Artichoke and Goat Cheese Ravioli. The pate was exceptional -- layered, balanced, and memorable. The salmon was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and refreshingly not buried under heavy marinades. The ravioli was also excellent. Dessert was a rich chocolate cake that capped off an otherwise delightful meal. The decor, service, and overall comfort were all A+. This easily could have been a five-star evening, but the owner's unjustified hostility convinced me that this is not a place I would return to.

The ambience is very simple and very sophisticated. This dining room would not be out of place in NYC. The bonus for us was the chef was misdirected to our table, and he ended up chatting with us about his background and the thought behind the restaurant. What a pleasure! As a 35 year resident, I can get grouchy about some ways the area is gentrifying (cough, Silo Ridge, cough, Westerlind) and I was prepared to be grouchy about Isabela. Instead, I've been completely won over and now I'm a big fan. Definitely will return soon. Isabela is a great restaurant!
