Restaurants near Topping Tavern Museum

A perfect thanksgiving meal, small twists on classic fare that didn’t disappoint. A good serving of food for the money paid. My server, Olivia, was on the ball and professional, an excellent person to have on staff. I will not hesitate to return in the future.

Excellent salad bar and surf and turf at a reasonable price. We had to request a change of wait staff at the beginning of the meal since we were ignored for a larger party for nearly 15 minutes and when confronted the waiter told me “to be civil.” Disgraceful behavior towards a guest but a new waitress took right over immediately and the service from there was flawless. The restaurant put our appetizer on the house as a gesture of good will and we appreciated that.

What a remarkable surprise to find such an elegant yet unpretentious restaurant that is not trying to hard while achieving extraordinary flavors and combinations of ingredients. Vermont is a bit of a gourmet food desert so this is a true gem because there is no attempt to make food with foam or tweezers or eye droppers. Just exquisitely Source ingredients that shine

Irate never fails to impress. Food, service and ambiance are superb. Located in the Southern Vermont Arts Center, where today the member artists exhibition opened. Tonya, our regular server in the dining room is wonderful. She is the best! I had a delish cup of soup to start followed by the Denver Omelette and great home fries. My partner had the fried chicken sandwich without the bread and loved every bite. For desert we split a chocolate dish which was spectacular.

Always delicious! Festive environment by the bar, but it’s probably quieter in one of the side rooms.
