Great well-crafted food, friendly knowledgeable service

Starry Night is a hidden gem about 1/2 hr drive south of Burlington. Since we discovered it a couple years ago, it’s been a favorite for intimate date nights, dining with a couple friends and even larger parties. The service is always friendly & helpful, and the food & drinks are absolutely the best. We love the flatbread served before the meal - flavorful and the perfect start. Our favorite appetizer is the coal-roasted veggies, which is a large, shareable portion of savory delight. We haven’t tried all the entrees, but the ones we have are always cooked & seasoned to perfection and beautifully plated. Drink offerings are inventive and yummy. We have never had a disappointing experience. Pricing is appropriate for an upscale restaurant, so in the “special occasion” end of the spectrum.

Going to this location brought me back to my college days. As holds through from 20 years ago… They do not disappoint! Incredible selection of beer and wonderful food. Great service tops it off.

We had a wonderful evening dining at Jessica's Restaurant at The Swift House. The food was amazing, and the service by Jaye was excellent. Cocktails at the bar with their mixologist Laura is a great way to begin your evening. Everything from appetizers to dessert was delicious. Also, we happened to dine on a Fancy Friday which includes DJ and dancing, great fun. This restaurant truly stands out as one of the best dining experiences in Vermont!

Stopped for lunch before a game at Middlebury. Food was delicious! Friendly service staff!
