Best Organic Restaurants in Darien

we love going to terrain!!! we love walking in to the store and being overwhelmed by all the plants. the menu is always full of choices, making a selection challenging.....from the yummy complimentary bread and cocktails to the pork tenderloin and salmon...and finally to the cheese cake .....a good time was had by all!!!

Baldanza at the Schoolhouse is the best! It's head and shoulders above any other restaurant in lower Fairfield County. The food is perfectly cooked and presented every time. The attention to detail is meticulous. My water glass was refilled quickly. The staff is courteous, friendly, and efficient. Last night I had the veal parmesan with homemade pasta, it was outstanding. I always share the fritto misto with fried calamari and shrimp with friends. I had the homemade carrot cake for dessert. It was moist and dense with the right amount of cream cheese frosting and dollops of homemade whipped cream om the side. My only wish is that the dining room were quieter, it's difficult to have a conversation right across the table. My vote is 4.9 stars. I love the Schoolhouse!

The entire staff was great but the host / manager Griffin took extra steps to make sure we enjoyed our dinner. It was appreciated and we’ll be back.

Waitstaff couldn’t have been nicer or more attentive. First class service. This was our first time at Meritage based on high recommendations from friends. Food was very good. Dessert was delicious. Only drawback in our opinion was that everything was a la carte. Side of pasta, salad, cooked veggie, etc with entree was an extra cost. Chicken paillard was good as it was served with Caesar salad on top. Also, check your bill carefully. We were accidentally charged for a bottle of wine ($60) instead of a glass of wine ($15). Of course, it was corrected immediately.

Incredible food, killer dining and bar areas. We definitely will be back.
