    We were celebrating our anniversary at Artisan., and it was a very special experience. The food was outstanding -- everything cooked to perfection. Our server, Georgia, was excellent -- attentive, personable, and always there at just the right moment. Artisan is one of those rare restaurants where the acoustics in the dining room are designed in such a way that adults can conduct a conversation in a normal tone of voice -- most welcome! West Hartford is filled with excellent restaurants, but Artisan is truly a cut above. We will be returning soon.
