Die besten Restaurants mit einem Tasting-Menü in East Haddam

An Absolutely Incredible Experience at Beauty & Essex! ✨ From the moment we walked in, the experience was nothing short of amazing! Entering through the pawn shop makes for such a fun and unique introduction. We were greeted immediately, and after checking in for our reservation, we were warmly wished a Happy Anniversary. Such a thoughtful touch that immediately set the tone for the evening! Next stop was the gorgeous, dimly lit bar, with funky music playing, adorable little sofas, and intimate tables. The atmosphere was so cool and inviting. From there, we made our way into the dining room, which was equally impressive. An elegant yet fun vibe, with the same great music playing just a little softer, creating the perfect atmosphere for dinner. The service was absolutely impeccable! It seemed like as many as four different team members were checking on us throughout the evening, making sure we had everything we needed. Attentive, personable, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling overwhelming. And the food! The menu is uniquely designed for sharing, which makes the entire dining experience even more enjoyable. Every selection, from the appetizers right through to dessert, was creative, unique, and absolutely delicious. Beauty & Essex isn't just a restaurant; it's an entire experience. The atmosphere, the music, the incredible service, the food, and all the thoughtful little touches made our anniversary celebration extra special. If you're looking for somewhere with incredible ambiance, outstanding food, and an experience that is anything but ordinary, Beauty & Essex is a MUST! We loved every minute and can't wait to return! ❤️

We never have anything but the best experience at Max Fish. The food is high quality, and adventurous. We love trying new things, but we also love the usual menu items such as the Chicken Parm, Tuna, Fish and Chips, and Steamers. Last night my husband had one of the specials, ink pasta with squid. He said it was very good. I had salmon, their awesome mashed potatoes, and butternut squash with a light pomegranate sauce. So yummy. We love their rolls(takes me back to school), and although we did not get dessert last night, you cannot go wrong with any dessert on the menu. I do want to mention that this restaurant has a fine dining room that is business casual to much dressier attire, and a bar area and seating that is nice casual. Diners are a mix of business, date night, special occasions and those that enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant for a nice night out after a long work week. As a heads up this restaurant is not conducive to small children running around and a super loud party atmosphere. Children on the loose could inadvertently hurt themselves and/or staff members carrying heavy, very hot plates and bowls of food or dishes. It’s just not that kind of restaurant. We cannot say enough good things about the staff and the food. We tell everyone it’s our favorite place to be.

Our favorite restaurant. Last night we had oysters on the half shell with a fabulous vinaigrette. We shared a Shrimp and Clam handpie that was out of this world. I had the Roasted Monkfish and my husband had the Prime strip. For dessert was the Sugar Pumpkin Creme Brulé. Once again, Chef Taylor waved his magic wand and provided dishes that continue to leave beautiful memories. Our main server Peter, and Renee were great with every attention to detail. Every single meal there has been an adventure leaving us begging for more.

We celebrated our anniversary at Millwright's, what a wonderful place. The food was excellent, fresh ingredients, thoughtfully prepared. An overall great experience. We'll definitely go back.

Best meal of our lives! Everything was cooked and presented perfectly. Service was fantastic!
