My girlfriend and I went here for our 3rd time (I wish I lived closer) and again were blown away by the experience. The building is a classic throwback to a time long ago. We sat in the bar area which has beautiful wood and a fireplace. The smoked salmon was as good as ever, the highlight being the homemade crostini and dill sauce. It is spectacular and priced very modestly. The reason I chose to write a 2nd review is the pasta. We shared the carbonara. This is a dish that seems easy to make but it is difficult to perfect. I have been to Italy multiple times and get the carbonara in Rome. THIS was better than what I had in Rome. The pasta is homemade and perfectly cooked. Al dente enough to hold form but cooked enough so it's not chewy. It has the perfect amount of pepper as the bacon tips add the perfect amount of flavor without being salty. This is a dish nearly impossible to perfect, but somehow they did!! I love this place. read more

We had a wonderful experience at Slough House Kitchen! Our waitress, Alisa, was fantastic and went above and beyond to accommodate my gluten and dairy allergy. She worked with the kitchen to ensure my scallop risotto was prepared using oil instead of dairy, and I felt completely confident that my dietary needs were taken seriously. Even though it was fairly busy for a Thursday night, the service was attentive and friendly. We started with the fries, meatball soup (I didn't eat because it had dairy), and the arugula and peach salad, all of which were delicious. For our entrees, we both ordered the scallop risotto. My husband had the regular version with all the usual ingredients, while mine was modified for my allergies. He even tried my risotto and commented that there was very little difference between the two, they tasted just as good as each other! That really speaks to the skill of the chef. It's not always easy to find restaurants that can accommodate allergies without sacrificing flavor, but Slough House Kitchen absolutely delivered. My only suggestion would be to consider adding a few more gluten- and dairy-free entrée options, as well as a dessert choice for guests with food allergies. Even something as simple as a sorbet would be a welcome addition. Excellent food, outstanding service from Alisa, and a kitchen that clearly knows how to handle food allergies. We will definitely be back! Thank you. read more

The food below that we ordered tasted fresh and of course, always delicious. We ordered the toast and jam, but the bread wasn't warm. I wish it came out warm, especially since it's toast. That would be my only complaint. Toast & Jam House smoked Salmon Frittata and Chicken Cotolette Alfredo Frittata and potatoes read more

We really enjoyed this restaurant, and everything tasted very homemade. The ambiance also felt homey. The food tasted very fresh, especially the Tomato Caprese Salad. There was plenty of fresh bread, and the portions were generous. Our server was helpful, and the staff always kept our water glasses full. We will definitely be back and make sure to leave room for dessert next time! read more

Came in tonight around 5:20pm to finally try out this restaurant. The interior is rustic and calm, jazzy vibes. I did notice in the bar area where I sat at a table in the corner, that the large table across from me near the wall did have many cobwebs from the chairs to wall. The staff was so sweet and attentive. I started with water and a Coke Zero (6$ plastic bottle no refills) which came with a glass of ice. I ordered the bruschetta al pomodoro ($18) to start. Absolutely delicious, the portion was small and only came with two pieces of bread. I wish it had a bit more balsamic and Parmesan, and it came with more of their homemade bread toasted. I then ordered the spaghetti pomodoro ($25) Beautiful presentation, large portions and the flavors were amazing. Overall would I return? Yes absolutely. I intentionally came on a quiet night to experience things when they are not slammed. I look forward to returning. read more

A hidden gem! Classy restaurant. Amazing food, drinks and desert. We had the most lovely time eating there. Quiet atmosphere, outdoor seating overlooking the riverbed. Servers were meek, soft spoken, polite. I would not insult this place by taking photos while enjoying my evening. You will have to see for yourself. read more

we've eaten Schnitzel when we lived in Germany and obviously authentic. However at SH Kitchen were stingy on the gravy for their version of the Schnitzel. Waitress was not accommodating in relocating us to another table when the sun was on us. SHK needs much needed improvement to stay in business or for any patrons to return. read more

Always an excellent dinner. The ribeye was perfect and dessert was fantastic as well.

Don't come here if you're in a rush, there's beautiful patio seating and amazing scenery. They don't rush service. Indoor seating has dim lighting and also beautiful. The food is always good- when no one complains in a group that means the chefs are doing everything right. The grounds are beautiful--the family owning was open to allowing us to use grass and surrounding area for pictures--(check in with them beforehand if you want to do the same). They offer cake service for charge. read more

Sloughhouse is such a gem. Set inside a beautifully preserved old house from the mid-1800s, the space feels cozy, romantic, and full of character--perfect for a date night. We started with oysters, which were fresh and delicious. Also had the best sourdough bread! For dinner my husband had the beef stroganoff and the I had carbonara, and both were rich, comforting, and really well done. We paired everything with a bottle of Barbera that mixed beautifully with the meal. The ambiance was just right, low lighting and warm. The service was genuinely sweet and attentive without feeling overbearing. This is one of those places that makes you want to linger. We'll definitely be back. read more

Food was delicious and super rich- had the stroganoff. Someone told me the portions were small but there was no way I was finishing it all after I had the minestrone soup. ((Which was also amazing)) Ambience was adorable. Our waitress didn't do a whole lot of talking ((not that I want a bunch of talking)) but even when she did talk it seemed like it was very quiet & one word answers. It took a while to get the food after ordering. Overall food was good & would go back! read more

From the moment we walked in, we knew the evening was going to be special. After viewing the great historical photos, we were seated at our patio table. Nice music, along with great views of the trees and landscaping. Enjoyed bruschetta made with freshly picked tomatoes from their garden. The dinner and presentation were all outstanding, dessert was perfect, and the owner brought us out a glass of local port wine to finish the meal - do not miss this place - a very special dining experience. read more

Service was beyond slow! Waited 15 minutes to be seated with a reservation. Only three tables occupied in the restaurant. No water on table for 15+ minutes, ordered ice tea, 20 minutes passed with no beverage service. I finally went and asked if we could get our tea. Food was slow out of kitchen and it appeared the dishes weren't prepared at the same time. Eggs Benedict was cold and bread was soggy. Two Chicken Parmesan Panini's were soggy as though they had sat waiting for the fourth dish to be prepared. Overall a VERY disappointing lunch experience. There's no excuse for poor service, staff training is much needed at this beautiful restaurant. I won't go back based on my experience today. read more

I took my dear friend for brunch for her 81st birthday. This was our first visit. The hostess and servers were amazing. Very attentive, but not bothersome. The food was delicious. My friend had the spinach frittata and I had the eggs Benedict. The patio setting was beautiful and we stayed well after our meal enjoying ourselves. We definitely will return. read more

It was a refreshing dining experience to be away from the hustle of the city. It's a short drive for a lovely date night. We chose to dine on the patio and enjoyed the lush nature trees that surrounded the restaurant. I felt my shoulders drop and relax as I enjoyed my dinner. Attentive service, great food and fresh air. read more

Overpriced and staff did not seem to have a grip on what they were doing. It was a once and done experience.

The food selections were excellent. The service was exceptional. Group of 14 with separate checks. Most restaurants would never do that. Plenty of staff for the large group. read more

I went Saturday with friends and had amazing food. Everything was excellent. It's definitely a destination spot to check out.

If you are looking for a relaxing meal where you have time to visit with your friends or that special person...this is the place. You get the European style service...by this I mean the food is not thrown on the table. I've been to some establishments where the appetizers are served just a few minutes before the main course! Sloughhouse kitchen paces your dining experience. You are served homemade bread with a homemade dipping sauce. The menu changes with the season, each new dish is a delight and we have never sent anything back. Your taste buds are in for a treat! They grow their own vegetables, some of the food served is not on typical restaurant menus. Always a delicious adventure , no matter what we order! And the desserts made from scratch by the chef's wife. The meal, the ambiance, warmth from the friendly staff makes eating here... Worth every penny ! read more

Dined at the Slough House Kitchen for a nice Friday date night. We arrived and were happily greeted outside by the Slough House Kitchen dog. Once inside we were greated and sat a table for two in the main area. We looked for the menu for a bit, and while doing so my girlfriend sampled the wines to pair with her dinner. Once we were ready we ordered the following: Wine: Pinot Grigio, Maggio Appetizer: Beef Tataki Main Courses: Tagliatelle alla Salsicia NY Sirloin Dessert: Coffee Crème Bûrlée All of the food was amazing, and I was pleasantly surprised about the Coffee Crème Bûrlée. I love a good Crème Bûrlée, and a coffee flavor was a new spin for me, and it was really enjoyable. Overall: Nice dinning experience with good good and nice staff. read more

Excellent food, historical surroundings, good service, leisurely pace. We enjoyed the fresh bread starter. Our entrees were schnitzel & risotto (both excellent!). We finished with the speciality dessert - a Basque cheese cake - YUM! Loved seeing local wines on the menu. read more

I'm going to keep this short and simple because we didn't even stay for the food. The sodas on the menu are $6 a piece. No free refills. Absurd. A bread basket with a few pieces of bread and butter was $10. Ridiculous. I'm happy to pay for good food, but I am sick to death of being nickled and dimed to death. And, of course, we would have been expected to pay a 20% tip on top of the meal. Restaurants are just becoming a joke of an experience. We just left there at 7pm on Friday evening and there were hardly any cars in the parking lot. The food might be good, but people are sick and tired of being gouged for their hard earned money. read more

Ok...so the reviews seemed pretty good so our group of 11 made reservations for a celebration dinner. The servers were nice, but quite slow at getting us seated, getting orders, etc. We asked for water multiple times, but they never brought any. One person in our group just got up and found a water pitcher and brought it to the table. We waited a little over an hour to get our food after placing our order. We weren't checked on much at all during the hour. We had to get up to find our server about an hour in to make sure our order was even placed. They said it was and they were busy with other large tables. The food was pretty good, but unfortunately the experience was a very disappointing and everyone was so hungry we didn't spend much time enjoying our food. Our plates were also being cleared before some people had even finished. At one point we asked if we could get some bread since our food had taken over an hour. They brought two loafs, but charged us $10 for each. The biggest issue we had was they charged an 18% "Large Group fee", which amounted to about $9/person. The receipt said "Large Group fee (Not a gratuity)". So they charged 18% fee, but also expected a tip on top of that. That was not told to us when we made the phone reservation. Definitely would not recommend for groups and our experience will make it easy to never wanna return. read more

We arrived just before opening on a Saturday for our first visit. The huge building that houses the restaurant has seemingly been lovingly refurbished and is quite charming. Nice dining room area, bar and "vinoteca" and a lovely and expansive outside patio. Service was friendly yet a bit sluggish, but not really a biggie since we were in no hurry. They were kind enough to allow us to taste the wines we ordered: sparkling for me was too sweet for my liking. They didn't have the Sangiovese the hubby desired and he didn't love the option presented, so we both pivoted to a nice Chardonnay that suited our taste just fine. We shared some Hog Island oysters on the half shell, which were delicious, as expected, but shockingly not cold. At all. Like almost warm. A little concerning. So far so good, as I write this about 6 hours post-consumption ~ hoping for the best since I'm leaving on a jet plane tomorrow! The oysters were served with a trio of sauces: a mignonette, sweet and smoky soy with sesame seeds, and a Tabasco style hot sauce plus two wedges of lemon. Two of the six succulent bivalves were topped directly with a pineapple horseradish. Nice variety. We each went with one of their open-face panini on homemade bread: he got the chicken Parmesan and I opted for the prosciutto with arugula. Very delicious and generous portions. I wouldn't hesitate to return if I found myself in the neighborhood! read more

To preface: the reason they didn't get five stars from us was purely because of service. The food was absolutely delicious. We saw on the menu online that they give free mimosas on Saturdays and Sundays with brunch - which we were not offered. We ordered two glasses of rose (which were the smallest pours we have received). In fact, we ordered two more glasses and the server brought our bottle out and still poured small glasses (there was still wine left in the bottle). Four total glasses ordered should equal one bottle of wine... The food was incredible. We ordered the half roasted chicken and the steak & cheese omelette. The food was so good that we would definitely come back and try again given our experience. The hardest part of our experience was when we receive our check. Both dishes were $10+ more than listed on the menu, and our wine was more expensive as well. We kindly let our server know and he was able to fix his error. As for the wine, they were wood out of the wine we ordered and poured us a more expensive one without informing us of the price difference. All in all, great experience sitting on the deck on a beautiful morning. Food was amazing, but there were a lot of other negatives as a part of our experience. Don't forget to check your receipts! read more

Enjoyed brunch at the SloughHouse Kitchen. We sat by a welcoming window as it was a bit cold for the outdoor patio. The wait staff were friendly and accommodating and our order was perfectly served. The fruit bowl was large and full of a variety of fresh fruit. The poached eggs, hollandaise sauce, potatoes and garden salad were perfect. Only thing not perfect about the meal was the nice thick, tasty homemade bread had a crust that was quite tough. I'm sure the kitchen can fix that. I look forward to returning and highly recommend this lovely restaurant. read more

I really wanted to love this restaurant. Went on Mother's Day. I have to say for $75 per person it was really not worth it! There was no thought given to the buffet No beef,no seafood. Cold pizza, watery eggs, no muffins for the eggs Benedict, pasta was? Then all of a sudden there was mash potatoes and beans? Why? The kids food chicken and fries was the best, the charging for a mimosa! I really hope they can get things together as I would love sloughouse to be successful read more

This place is a such a hidden gem. My husband took me here for a surprise date, and the food was delicious. We both got the pork schnitzel, and would definitely come back and have it again.

The best date night spot- warm, delicious food, authentic ambiance. Fantastic service. Great wine list. A hidden treasure!

Visited this place with my sisters in honor of my birthday recently. It was the first time for each of us, so we were eager to try as many dishes as possible to get a good grasp of what this place was all about. Most of the items we shared and then each one of us ordered our own entree. We ordered the arugula salad (great portion for the 4 of us) and it paired really well with the bread and butter that was brought to the table. Delicious. But kinda pricey. Our server also recommended the Rockefeller Oysters (not on the menu). These were baked with a creamy spinach goodness. I could've eaten all 6 of them, but that'd be rude. I'd go back for these alone! For my main I decided on the Poached Barramundi Fish - mostly bc I hardly ever cook fish at home and thought it'd be good to eat something different from my usual diet. Unfortunately, this dish didn't wow me. The fish and polenta were seasoned well, but the fish felt heavy and overcooked - not something I'd expect from a poached dish. Also, the large portions of 2 different purées on my plate were pretty bland and felt like I was eating baby food. I could only eat a few bites. Would not pay $39 for this in the future. A couple other things - 1) We sat on their outdoor patio - which is gorgeous! - but a couple girls in our party were really bothered by the spiders and bees surrounding us. They were literally covering their faces with napkins every time the bees would come on by. Perhaps it's just seasonal. But it'd be nice to have some kind of deterrent. 2) Our waiters were kind and helpful in telling about items on the menu, but they were not super attentive for the rest of the evening. My sister and I were parched by the end of our meal bc no one had come by to refill our water. Perhaps having a pitcher on the table would be a nice option. 3) The total bill was quite high and I don't feel as though the food quite measured up to the price. I'd be interested in coming by for brunch sometime to see how that experience compares to a dinner one. read more

A mixed experience. Food was good nice music on the deck set a good vibe. Their VERY understaffed service was bad . Today was buffet style. When we were seated we sat for 15 minutes before they asked if we wanted water. Never explained where to get food. We finally asked where to line started? There were no plates and out of three or four items. The food would have been good but you had to wait for it to come out, everyone went at once so they often ran out fast. The big down Fall is training and understaffed! Made for just an ok experience ! read more

The chef is Ukranian but was trained in Italy and knows his stuff. His pasta is hand made. That said, survival in a place that is out of the way like Slough House takes survival skills and adaptability, so they may make it against all odds. The menu is eclectic. The food is good, the portions small. Try it and see what you think. read more
