Best Seasonal Restaurants in Forest Hill / West Portal

Our experience was a mixed bag. The latkes with smoked trout were outstanding. Burgers were also delicious. The steak, on the other hand, was not great. It was tough and difficult to cut or chew. It was also completely raw in the middle. I like rare but this was extreme- and very off-putting. I left half of it on the plate, which at $68 for the entree felt pretty bad. In addition, the sides paired with the steak weren't particularly good. Sorbets for dessert were mind blowing. I would return but couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed by the quality of the most expensive entree.

Roti Indian Bistro is by far one of my favorite Indian restaurants. The food is consistently great, as well as the service and atmosphere. I'd highly recommend this restaurant for all occasions.

Going to SBP is never a disappointing experience. Its variety of dishes is sure to please every taste bud during your stay.

AMAZING First time patron dining on Valentine’s Day 2025. Made reservations for 2. Arrived at 6:15 and the dining room was completely packed. From the greet to the bill the dining experience was top notch. Specially curated menu with a wide variety to choose from. We started with the incredible buratta, fig, arugula, prosciutto drizzled with balsamic reduction appetizer My partner had the lamb shank, I had the roast duck both served with risotto and fresh vegetables. Perfectly seasoned lamb shank and duck were falling-off-the-bone tender and ample sized. We opted for 2021 Cab Sauvignon from Castoro which went well with both dishes. Service was AMAZING with Connie. The room was as busy as I’ve ever seen in a restaurant but Connie was polite, professional, and patient - all with a smile. In fact, all the servers and staff deserve a round of applause. Couldn’t have been more impressed with this venue. We’ll be back, for sure…

One of our party has numerous allergies. Our server went out of her way to help her find healthy choices for the guest, including checking with the kitchen to confirm that two pastas were suitable. A wonderful experience, delicious dishes!
