Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Bloomfield

There for my son's birthday. They seated us right away. The table immediately next to us was a 25+ yr old couple. In twenty seconds i had seen and heard enough. The girl talking loudly with her mouth full of food..said "legit" 3 times in the same sentence and hit her hand on the table top laughing. I kindly asked the host to move us to a different table. They accommodated without hesitation. Ordinarily I dont care, eat and be merry but not for the money i was paying nope. The service, food, server, buss staff, all impeccable Class operation

The Pond House is a gem in our community. The location, service and menu is perfect for a casual meet up. The acoustics are so bad. I have found it only works for me if there is one person to talk to so I can focus.

Our family had a special dinner on a Saturday, enjoying something from every part of the menu (signature cocktails and mocktails; appetizers, entrees and desserts). Flavor galore. Our server, Lincoln, was attentive, made great suggestions and helped make it a perfect evening. The night was made extra special when a young couple a few tables away got engaged to the applause of all. In the car ride back to our house, the five of us each sang the praises of Millwrights. Top Shelf evening.

The food and the service were very good and the prices very reasonable. The only issue is, it can be very loud at times.

Artisan is a favorite for delicious and fresh vegetable-rich meals. We love the Chef's monthly themed dinners and the way the kitchen aims to accommodate dietary preferences. I ordered the catch of the day over the brussels/pistachio/pesto preparation and it was perfect. There is a trend to fry the brussels until they are unrecognizable and cover them in sauce, but Artisan maintains a delicate flavored vegetable that compliments the dish. The autumn salad with blueberries, pomegranate seeds and almonds was excellent also. The main dining room is a cheerful relaxing space and the staff is welcoming and helpful.
