Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Plainville

We all had the Halibut with celery root puree & haricot vert. It was absolutely delicious. Dinnertime (on a Monday) was much quieter than lunchtime so it was nice that it wasn't too loud. Also they didn't rush us out. We lingered & chatted even after we paid the bill. Much enjoyed.

What a find! First time here ..found searching internet everything was perfect from ambiance to food to outstanding service from long time waitress Lisa. Had the Kansas Strip on recommendation from Lisa. Partner had filet mignon Sides of cream corn to die for Back potato and fixings’ perfect Took advantage of Monday special 25% bottle of Silver Oak..(if under $100 get 50% off!) Everyone is professional as can be from Lisa our server to food runner to buser.. We will be back ..delightful

My husband and I had a reservation and were seated right away on the bridge room, very nice. We were asked what kind of water we wanted for our table and told our server, Evelyn would be right over to take our order, which she did. She took our cocktail order and when they were served she took our dinner order. My husband had the foil gras mousse and I had the tapioca custard appetizer. For entrees he had the scallops and u had BBQ short rib. For dessert we shared the s’mores. Everything was excellent .

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.

Fantastic atmosphere and dinner was excellent!
