    Service was top notch, very attentive without being over burdening. Food arrived quickly and was hot. Debbie was our server and was magnificent. Decor was in touch with Christmas and very tasteful. My wife was in a wheel chair and the staff worked to make sure she was comfortable and out of harm's way. We live over 4 hours away but would come again if passing through Wallingford.

    The dry aged steaks were phenomenal! The flavor was perfection. The individual sides were very overpriced for the size they were 10 dollars each and it was just enough for one person. 10 bucks for a little mashed potato is a stretch in my opinion. The carrot cake was delicious and they make a mean espresso martini! The restaurant itself is gorgeous with a few stone fireplaces throughout and it’s very cozy.

    Wow. Although located where it was, it's not the Waverly Inn anymore! It is so updated and light and bright! The food was spectacular. From the calamari app through the main course of Bolognese and Branzino Fish, it was fresh and a wonderful combination of flavors. Excellent wine selection and a full bar. We will not hesitate to go back there.

    Never been before thought we’d give it a try. Don’t think the reservation was really necessary but the dining area was very clean and welcoming. The server, Lisa, was a super sweet and attentive. Helped make recommendations and substitutions as requested. The food was great. Spinach salad was a nice taste of summer with berries and goat cheese. I had the steak which was cooked as requested. The veggies were were also tender crisp and not covered in oil or butter. Definitely recommend this spot. Lisa was a true delight as a server and we had a great time with her.
