Henry's Diner
Sep 13, 2009 by Joel Wilke from Burlington, VT

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Consistently good food and classic atmosphere.
• Bit crowded and the student customers can be verbally challenging families at times.

“Henry's is my second favorite place in Burlington, which still says a lot. It is the quintessential diner with the original dining car at its center. The staff is friendly and just might call you "Hon" if you are lucky. The food is always good and features your basic breakfast fare. The wait can be 15-20 minutes for a seat at peak times on the weekend when the colleges are in session but compared to other places not so bad. Service is quick once you are seated.”

Penny Cluse Cafe
Sep 13, 2009 by Joel Wilke from Burlington, VT

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• The food, staff, and atmosphere.
• Longer waits on the weekend.

“I've lived in the area for six or seven years and there is no better place for breakfast/brunch. The food is excellent and ranges from your basics to more adventurous takes on the classics. The staff is more than friendly, service is quick and the atmosphere is lively. The wait on the weekend can average around 40-60 minutes at peak times but it is worth the wait or peruse the Church Street Marketplace for excellent window shopping and people watching. Summers when the students are gone, the wait is decreased, especially during the week. The food is from local providers and consistently excellent. If you are lucky to get a window table the entertainment will pass you by. You never know who you might see eating here depending upon who is touring or vacationing nearby. The Cluse is one of my top five places anywhere. I'm a fan of the French toast on the daily specials board.”

Codys Irish Pub & Grille
Aug 14, 2009 by Dan from Essex Junction, VT

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• The burgers are very delicious. They are definitely better than any chain restaurants burgers.
• I wanted some more fries.

“Good. I live in the area and it is one of the few sit down restaurants in town. It also has a bar as well, which is sweet. Place is kind of small, but isnt a chain restaurant so it's nice to chill at a quiet smaller place from time to time. Overall I enjoy it quite a bit and make a short journey to this place as often as I can. Good for friends and/or family.”

Mt Anthony Country Club
Aug 14, 2009 by John from Boston

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[3] • Service:[6] • Atmosphere:[6]

• The view was beautiful.
• The lack of attention to details.

“I have heard mixed reviews of this establishment. Through friends I had heard about the current chef and decided to visit but when we visited we had learned that the chef had been let go. The menu was very exciting, priced appropriately and the atmosphere was warm but lacked occupancy. The service was very slow but friendly; we attributed this to the culture and accepted it as it was at least friendly. When our meals arrived we were very disappointed in the presentation and the lack of flavor. Our experience was just ok up to this point.”

• Excellent atmosphere, food & service at half the price.
• Not much going on in bradford.

“The food is fresh, delicious and unpretentious, the wine selection is good and the tap beers change often and usually represent local breweries. Service is friendly and attentive and the building itself has a lovely atmosphere, right by the river.”

• TV's on the wall, get rid of them. You can see chefs in kitchen. Noisy.

“Great place, food is well cooked. Going back for second visit tonight. Food comes fast and furious, this time I will make sure I say yes to everything and get one giant doggy bag.”

Golden Egg
Jan 9, 2009 by James Dills from Brooklyn

Overall Rating: 6
Food:[5] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[7]

• I didn't throw up.
• Slides right out of ya.

“Typical greasy diner type breakfast. I've heard from a staff member that the kitchen is dirty. Not many options. Lots of eggs, one pancake option, I believe, and no waffles. Home fries look like cut up French fries - very sad. I've not had dinner there. They're serving pizza at night, which sounds terrific. It's pretty difficult to mess up pizza. They should drive up to Plainfield, Vermont and check out the River Run - the best breakfast restaurant I've ever been to. If you're deciding where to go for breakfast in Saxtons River, the Village Market has excellent breakfast sandwiches.”

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[6]

• GREAT food!
• Place isn't great, but it is only take out, not sit in, so I am not bothered.

“This restaurant is actually a take out restaurant. The food is very good and though the place may not look the best, I have never heard of anyone who didn't like their food, or got sick from it. The owner is extremely friendly, and if he takes your order, chances are he will remember you the next time you come in. I enjoy going here very much.”

Sarducci's Inc

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[9] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[7]

• Food and wine.
• Noise factor when busy.

“Wonderful Italian food. Great wood fired oven for authentic Italian pizza. A bit pricey but not a bad value. Nice wine list. Somewhat noisy when crowded because of metal ceiling that bounces the sound around.”

Angelinos

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Atmosphere, price, low noise level, wines and beers.
• Service is slower when busy but just right for socializing before dining.

“Excellent take-out pizza and sub shop but also a very reasonably priced restaurant with great food and quiet atmosphere. Try the Veggie Bake.”

Blue Benn
Aug 23, 2008 by Susan from Middletown,Ny

Overall Rating: 3
Food:[7] • Service:[3] •

• Large menu.
• Freshness of dinner items.

“I was disappointed with dinner. Breakfast is ok. We were served cranberry sauce that had gone bad. Turkey dinner not up to par. Cole slaw that was homemade had a problem. The server was afraid to tell the boss. The reason I believe is because dinners are now slow with limited days. Breakfast is ok, but do not gamble on dinner.”

Blue Benn
Aug 22, 2008 by Susan from Middletown,NY

Overall Rating: 2

• Large menu.
• Freshness is a gamble.

“I was disappointed. Now that business is slow there is less turnover of food. I was served cranberry sauce with mold. The homemade Cole slaw looked good but tasted like bleach. Must have put it in a bucket that was not rinsed well. Turkey was dry and the dressing was a bread rock. We told the server and she was afraid to tell the boss. So we just figured we learned a lesson -- do not gamble on dinner at the Blue Benn.”

East Side Restaurant
Aug 1, 2008 by Holly from Brasher Falls NY

Overall Rating: 10

• View of the lake, love to shop in the gift shop.
• Kind of hard to locate if your not familiar with area.

“We love this restaurant. Our son and his fiance moved here recently, so we always make sure we stop for lunch or dinner. In fact my son's wedding and reception will be held here in October. I am sure it will be done beautifully!”

East Side Restaurant
Jul 20, 2008 by Mary from Northampton Ma

Overall Rating: 1
Food:[1] • Service:[3] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Food is horrible.
• Nice porch overlooking the water.

“Over the last 20 years, we have eaten at the Eastside through the various owners and chefs. Along time a go it uses to be good, but not any more. The food is disgusting, the restaurant is dirty and very unsanitary. The board of health in Newport needs to make surprise visits. The crackers brought to the table with cheese were stale and we think that they pass around the basket to more than one table instead of tossing out the left over crackers, I think they are putting a new cheese cup and putting it on the next guest's table. For starters, the ginger ale I ordered was flat and over priced $1.75. My husband ordered the fisherman's feast with the one crab leg, taste less bland seafood and the French fries on the dish looked like they were sitting for hours under a heat lamp and were greasy and burnt. I ordered the seafood dish in sherry cream sauce on the menu, it was horrible. The sauce tasted like crushed Ritz crackers, with cream, sherry and butter, my husband tasted it and said it was disgusting too. The seafood was old dried up over cooked shellfish, it came with two crostini, a regular item on the menu. The onion soup was lukewarm and flavorless. Now on to the salad bar, first of all salad bars should be banned, this is so dated and just a bacteria pit. The Eastside Salad Bar is dirty, nasty looking food and most of the dishes were half empty and looked like there we sitting there for weeks, I was afraid to eat from the salad bar, in the middle of summer 7/20/2008, the selection should be nice, but it consisted of old radishes, half a dish off colored beets that looked old, some dried up carrot shreds, nothing spectacular. There were several Mayonnaise laden salads that looked disgusting and the on I tried had some oily tasting tuna, I almost buffed it was so bad. The roll tray had one cinnamon sticky set of tongs that looked like they had not been washed in a week. There was not tong for the plain rolls so you either had to use the cinnamon tongs or your hands to pick of the roll. This was a $62.00 screwing. We ate at the restaurant twice this past summer and the last time it wasn't any better. Shame on the Dena Gray for screwing her customers with her lousy poor quality slop that she calls food, shame! Also here waitress over dirty looking too and should were uniforms. I was waiting for the hostess to ask me how the mean was but she didn't ask. Newport needs competition, if there were decent restaurants this one would close up or clean up.”

Shin-La Restaurant & Sushi Bar
Mar 28, 2008 by Jon from Stowe, VT

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[10] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Fantastic food! The owner is a very nice woman. They have good Japanese food, as well.
• Some of the wait staff is quite lame. The atmosphere is a little boxy and cafeteria-like.

“I love the food! I always love to get the spicy squid dish with a side order of kimchi. The Japanese food they serve is good, as well. I love the tempura battered shrimp and the various noodle soups. The sushi was good. The only draw-back is that it really depends on just who is waiting on your table. If you're lucky, the owner will be your waitress. She is very charming. Some of the girls are. Somewhat uninspired. While the ambiance is not nearly Korean enough, the delicious food makes up for it. I'm starting to get really hungry just talking about them!”

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[9]

• The food, service and atmosphere were ideal for family get together.
• It isn't close enough to Peoria, as for frequent visits.

“I have been to the rotisserie restaurant a number of times, both as a resident of south Burlington and more recently as a traveler guest. My family has always been pleased with the dining experience there.”

American Flatbread At The Marbleworks
Nov 21, 2007 by Joe

Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• The pizza, ingredients, the beer, weekly message from the owner on the menus, socially responsible messages and the atmosphere.
• Long waits on some nights at the door, although you can sit at the bar and enjoy local drafts while waiting.

“Excellent flatbreads with all natural organic ingredients. Some nights this place is so crowded it is almost impossible to get a seat so be prepared to wait at the door while sipping their own brewed beer. Highly recommended!”

Pizza Putt Inc
Nov 21, 2007 by Rob from St. Albans

Overall Rating: 6
Food:[5] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Arcade, mini golf, food, and fun all in the same place.
• Food could be a bit better and too many kids being kids drives me up the wall.

“Pizza was great and I am picky not to be a pessimist but let's be real here, this is pizza putt, not much different from Pizza Hut, the pizza is cooked in a pan and tastes eggy, and it is very low end pizza. The appetizers consisted of frozen store bought French fries the big ones that you bake and are either burnt or soggy, the chicken strips and mozzarella sticks are also quick throw in the oven items that did not come out the greatest, they would be far better deep fried. If you want pizza go to juniors in Colchester or flatbread Downtown and you wont be disappointed. If you want a fun place to bring your kids and have a family dinner with average tasting food then pizza putt is your place.”

• Hard to find.

“Even though the property and facility are both beautiful, the prices are very reasonable. Based on the appearance, the staff, and the quality of food I was expecting to spend a great deal more than we did. Multiple menus made ordering easy for my family and the scenery made the stop worthwhile all by itself.”

• I really liked the games, the atmosphere and how clean and nice they have made the place. I like laser tag too.
• Maybe could use a little more park at times?

“Restaurant is very clean and the staff is very friendly. They are usually very busy with birthday groups, but that's expected. I take my kids there to play their hearts out, as I just use the time to unwind. It's like a big baby sitting clinic for me, ha. It's safe too, that's the main thing. Don't tell my kids but I love to play mini golf and their state of the art arcade games too. It's the greatest place in the North East to take kids to have fun. And love that Pizza! It's the best ever!”

• Inexperienced wait staff that had no idea how to service customers, bad food.

“The dish I ordered was so bad I asked the waitress to take it back and I would order something else. They insisted on charging me for the uneaten dish. I've never had to send food back, but this was the worst. I paid and left.”

Muddy Waters
Sep 2, 2007 by Kathi from Fullerton, Calif.

Overall Rating: 10
Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• The ambiance.
• The price of a newspaper.

“As you walk into muddy waters you can feel a since of history in the building. It's an old building with all the charm that comes along with that. Comfortable seating with an ambiance that is magical. The coffee is exceptional and the pastries are good. This is a place where you can linger all day long just watching people come and go. Church street is jammed packed with coffee houses but this one is special by far.”

Hunter's American Grill
Aug 25, 2007 by Brenda from Vernon

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[9] • Service:[9] • Atmosphere:[8]

• The atmosphere was warm and relaxing. The food was scrumptious and cooked perfectly to our liking!
• There were no signs pointing to the restaurant. If you are not a local, it would be hard to know that this steak house existed.

“We were celebrating our daughter going off to college and wanted to have a special family dinner. We were pleasantly surprised! The Hunter's American grill was just the type of restaurant we were looking for. It was clean and had a warm inviting atmosphere. It was decorated like a hunting lodge; the antler light fixtures were a quaint touch. The view of the surrounding mountains was breathtaking. There was a seating area on the outdoor patio which gave a wonderful view, and could be very private and romantic. They have a large lounge area for more casual dining, or the large dining room. There is a fireplace for the cold winter evenings. We had a wonderful selection. We enjoyed prime rib and other cuts of beef cooked to our liking. The dinners come with vegetable of the day, potato and salad bar. The salad bar offered many wonderful toppings such as dried cranberries, golden raisins, sunflower seeds, and croutons. There were assorted greens, marinated artichoke hearts, tender baby beets, tomatoes, cottage cheese, broccoli, carrots & cukes. The meal was hearty and delicious. We were all too full to have dessert, but the dessert tray looked very inviting. The service was great and although it was expensive, it was well worth it. We all had a delightful time and plan to go again.”

Sweet Tomatoes Trattoria

Overall Rating: 7
Food:[3] • Service:[4] • Atmosphere:[8]

• My wifes' salad was very good.
• My salad was a disaster.

“My wife and are retired and travel to Burlington about once a week for shopping and lunch. About once a month, for years, we have had lunch at Sweet Tomatoes. Satisfactory. I ordered the En tree Caesar Salad with Anchovies and other ingredients. The salad arrived with only lettuce, weak dressing, dried out tasteless chicken and nothing else. I finally got the waitress attention and she brought 3 anchovies. The waitress never returned to check on our lunch. The chicken was too tasteless to eat. When the bill arrived I asked the waitress to advise the food prep ingredients were missing from the salad, the dressing was tasteless and chicken inedible. I didn't see anyone who appeared to be a Manager to report my disappointment.”

Souza's Brazilian Restaurant
Jul 8, 2007 by John from Milton, VT

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[7] • Atmosphere:[9]

• Atmosphere, unique and memorable experience, very good food.
• Small place, understaffed (the night we went).

“Souza's is definitely a different dining experience. It is little small but the decor is colorful, and its size adds to its energy. The ambiance I would describe as "active" and busy. While my wife and had gone there to celebrate our wedding anniversary, I would not describe it as romantic. However, it certainly is memorable and not only do I not regret going, i would recommend it for someone wanting to try something unique. Children are welcome, but I would not really describe it as family-friendly because the atmosphere is a little mature and the space too tight; if your kids are brats, doesn't go here. It certainly isn't cheap but while it is pricey you will eat well and the concept is worth paying for. The food was overall good to very good; there were a couple of stand-out items like the opening of bean soup, the roast lamb, and the grilled pineapple, but the sirloin tips were really tough and the fillet mignon a tad overdone. They service was average; although the staff were knowledgeable and friendly they seemed to be stretched a little thin; I think they would have done better if they were not understaffed. I recommend reservations, although they didn't give me the kind of table I had asked for when I called; instead of giving me something on the side we ended up in the center where the traffic was. By the way, the place was absolutely freezing. Overall if you go with a desire for an interesting evening and good food, you will enjoy yourself.”

“Marsalis Salsa is the best food here by far. All of the food is authentic and made from natural ingredients. I've never had a bad meal at this restaurant. The family type atmosphere, relaxed and romantic environment make it a wonderful place for family and friends to gather. Favorites? Black bean soup, and jowza.”

Food:[8] • Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[4]

• Food.
• Service, service, service.

“The food was good; the only disappointment was a hard baked potato. The service was awful from the moment we walked in the door until we left. The host was busy taking care of a personal phone call when we walked in and then told us we'd have to wait a minute for our table to be ready, when he decided to wrap up that call (roughly two minutes later) he then sidled around the corner and put our table together. I would suggest dining there well before eight o'clock and don't think of bringing kids. Maybe your experience could be better. Like I said, the food was good.”

“Great place to stop if you like Mediterranean pita and do not mind a hands on approach to good food. Not the best place to sit and eat but that gives a good excuse to grab your food and enjoy it in the park or on Church St. Never had a bad experience.”

• It is to far away from Boston to take my wife out for dinner on a Thursday evening.

“I have never been to a restaurant that made me feel so welcome, I felt like I was entering a cult! But, it was not one of those places with bad food and great service. The food was amazing. My steak was so tender. I had a New York strip with crushed peppercorns and a brown sauce on it. To die for! I cannot wait to be sent up to Keene NH for work again. I will make the trip to over to Brattleboro, VT anytime for a steak like that.”

“A White River Jct classic for over 50 years, it seems that everybody who has ever traveled through Vermont has dined at the Polka Dot! Classic diner layout, classic diner menu, chef/owner has been associated with the Polka Dot for nearly 50 years! The Polka Dot serves generous portions of tasty diner classics by friendly wait staff in the cleanest diner you'll ever set foot in. The Polka Dot is a superb dining value and well worth a visit.”

• Occasional wait, but nothing compared to other places I¿ve been to.

“Henry's is probably my favorite breakfast restaurant of all time, and I¿m a breakfast kind of girl. Sometimes there's a wait which can be tough if you're standing outside in the middle of winter in Burlington, but tables move fast, service is great, and food is amazing. Food comes out so fast it leaves your head spinning, huge portions, great value for your money. Definitely a must-see if you're in the area!”
